2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Don't assume BSP has ID 0 in new smp bootupAndi Kleen
This patch removes the assumption that LAPIC entries contain the BSP as its first entry. This is a slight improvement to the temporary fix submitted by Suresh Siddha. - Removes assumption that LAPIC entries contain BSP first. - Builds x86_acpiid_to_apicid[] and bios_cpu_apicid[] properly with BSP as first entry. - Made maxcpus=1 boot on these systems. Since the parsing earlier in arch/x86_64/kernel/mpparse.c stopped after maxcpus entries, other entries were not processed, this causes kernel not to boot on these systems. TBD: x86_acpiid_to_apicid and bios_cpu_apicid[] seem to be exactly the same. This could be removed, but might need more work to cleanup.

2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Collected NMI watchdog fixes.Andi Kleen
Collected NMI watchdog fixes. - Fix call of check_nmi_watchdog - Remove earlier move of check_nmi_watchdog to later. It does not fix the race it was supposed to fix fully. - Remove unused P6 definitions - Add support for performance counter based watchdog on P4 systems. This allows to run it only once per second, which saves some CPU time. Previously it would run at 1000Hz, which was too much. Code ported from i386 Make this the default on Intel systems. - Use check_nmi_watchdog with local APIC based nmi - Fix race in touch_nmi_watchdog - Fix bug that caused incorrect performance counters to be programmed in a few cases on K8. - Remove useless check for local APIC - Use local_t and per_cpu variables for per CPU data. - Keep other CPUs busy during check_nmi_watchdog to make sure they really tick when in lapic mode. - Only check CPUs that are actually online. - Various other fixes. - Fix fallback path when MSRs are unimplemented Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Add pmtimer supportAndi Kleen
There are unfortunately more and more multi processor Opteron systems which don't have HPET timer support in the southbridge. This covers in particular Nvidia and VIA chipsets. They also don't guarantee that the TSCs are synchronized between CPUs; and especially with MP powernow the systems are nearly unusable because the time gets very inconsistent between CPUs. The timer code for x86-64 was originally written under the assumption that we could fall back to the HPET timer on such systems. But this doesn't work there. Another alternative is to use the ACPI PM timer as primary time source. This patch does that. The kernel only uses PM timer when there is no other choice because it has some disadvantages. Ported over from i386. It should be faster than the i386 version because I dropped the "read three times" workaround, but is still considerable slower than HPET and also does not work together with vsyscalls which have to be disabled.

2005-05-17[PATCH] x86_64: Update TSC sync algorithmAndi Kleen
The new TSC sync algorithm recently submitted did not work too well. The result was that some MP machines where the TSC came up of the BIOS very unsynchronized and that did not have HPET support were nearly unusable because the time would jump forwards and backwards between CPUs. After a lot of research ;-) and some more prototypes I ended up with just using the one from IA64 which looks best. It has some internal self tuning that should adapt to changing interconnect latencies. It holds up in my tests so far. I believe it was originally written by David Mosberger, I just ported it over to x86-64. See the inline comment for a description. This cleans up the code because it uses smp_call_function for syncing instead of having custom hooks in SMP bootup. Please note that the cycle numbers it outputs are too optimistic because they do not take into account the latency of WRMSR and RDTSC, which can be hundreds of cycles. It seems to be able to sync a dual Opteron to 200-300 cycles, which is probably good enough. There is a timing window during AP bootup where interrupts can see inconsistent time before the TSC is synced. It is hard to avoid unfortunately because we can only do the TSC sync after some setup, and we need to enable interrupts before that. I just ignored it for now.

2005-05-05[PATCH] x86_64: make string func definition work as intendedPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
In include/asm-x86_64/string.h there are such comments: /* Use C out of line version for memcmp */ #define memcmp __builtin_memcmp int memcmp(const void * cs,const void * ct,size_t count); This would mean that if the compiler does not decide to use __builtin_memcmp, it emits a call to memcmp to be satisfied by the C out-of-line version in lib/string.c. What happens is that after preprocessing, in lib/string.i you may find the definition of "__builtin_strcmp". Actually, by accident, in the object you will find the definition of strcmp and such (maybe a trick intended to redirect calls to __builtin_memcmp to the default memcmp when the definition is not expanded); however, this particular case is not a documented feature as far as I can see. Also, the EXPORT_SYMBOL does not work, so it's duplicated in the arch. I simply added some #undef to lib/string.c and removed the (now duplicated) exports in x86-64 and UML/x86_64 subarchs (the second ones are introduced by another patch I just posted for -mm).

These are some trivial fixes for the x86-64 subarch module support. The only potential problem is that I have to modify arch/x86_64/kernel/module.c, to avoid copying the whole of it. I can't use it verbatim because it depends on a special vmalloc-like area for modules, which for now (maybe that's to fix, I guess not) UML/x86-64 has not.

2005-05-04[PATCH] ISA DMA Kconfig fixes - part 1Al Viro
A bunch of drivers use ISA DMA helpers or their equivalents for platforms that have ISA with different DMA controller (a lot of ARM boxen). Currently there is no way to put such dependency in Kconfig - CONFIG_ISA is not it (e.g. it is not set on platforms that have no ISA slots, but have on-board devices that pretend to be ISA ones). New symbol added - ISA_DMA_API. Set when we have functional enable_dma()/set_dma_mode()/etc. set of helpers. Next patches in the series will add missing dependencies for drivers that need them. I'm very carefully staying the hell out of the recurring flamefest on what exactly CONFIG_ISA would mean in ideal world - added symbol has a well-defined meaning and for now I really want to treat it as completely independent from the mess around CONFIG_ISA.

2005-05-01[PATCH] Increase number of e820 entries hard limit from 32 to 128Venkatesh Pallipadi
The specifications that talk about E820 map doesn't have an upper limit on the number of e820 entries. But, today's kernel has a hard limit of 32. With increase in memory size, we are seeing the number of E820 entries reaching close to 32. Patch below bumps the number upto 128. The patch changes the location of EDDBUF in zero-page (as it comes after E820). As, EDDBUF is not used by boot loaders, this patch should not have any effect on bootloader-setup code interface. Patch covers both i386 and x86-64. Tested on: * grub booting bzImage * lilo booting bzImage with EDID info enabled * pxeboot of bzImage Side-effect: bss increases by ~ 2K and init.data increases by ~7.5K on all systems, due to increase in size of static arrays.

2005-05-01[PATCH] check nmi watchdog is brokenJack F Vogel
A bug against an xSeries system showed up recently noting that the check_nmi_watchdog() test was failing. I have been investigating it and discovered in both i386 and x86_64 the recent change to the routine to use the cpu_callin_map has uncovered a problem. Prior to that change, on an SMP box, the test was trivally passing because all cpu's were found to not yet be online, but now with the callin_map they are discovered, it goes on to test the counter and they have not yet begun to increment, so it announces a CPU is stuck and bails out. On all the systems I have access to test, the announcement of failure is also bougs... by the time you can login and check /proc/interrupts, the NMI count is happily incrementing on all CPUs. Its just that the test is being done too early. I have tried moving the call to the test around a bit, and it was always too early. I finally hit on this proposed solution, it delays the routine via a late_initcall(), seems like the right solution to me.

2005-05-01[PATCH] i386/x86_64 segment register access updateH. J. Lu
The new i386/x86_64 assemblers no longer accept instructions for moving between a segment register and a 32bit memory location, i.e., movl (%eax),%ds movl %ds,(%eax) To generate instructions for moving between a segment register and a 16bit memory location without the 16bit operand size prefix, 0x66, mov (%eax),%ds mov %ds,(%eax) should be used. It will work with both new and old assemblers. The assembler starting from 2.16.90.0.1 will also support movw (%eax),%ds movw %ds,(%eax) without the 0x66 prefix. I am enclosing patches for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels here. The resulting kernel binaries should be unchanged as before, with old and new assemblers, if gcc never generates memory access for unsigned gsindex; asm volatile("movl %%gs,%0" : "=g" (gsindex)); If gcc does generate memory access for the code above, the upper bits in gsindex are undefined and the new assembler doesn't allow it.

2005-04-16[PATCH] x86_64: Switch SMP bootup over to new CPU hotplug state machineAndi Kleen
This will allow hotplug CPU in the future and in general cleans up a lot of crufty code. It also should plug some races that the old hackish way introduces. Remove one old race workaround in NMI watchdog setup that is not needed anymore. I removed the old total sum of bogomips reporting code. The brag value of BogoMips has been greatly devalued in the last years on the open market. Real CPU hotplug will need some more work, but the infrastructure for it is there now. One drawback: the new TSC sync algorithm is less accurate than before. The old way of zeroing TSCs is too intrusive to do later. Instead the TSC of the BP is duplicated now, which is less accurate. akpm: - sync_tsc_bp_init seems to have the sense of `init' inverted. - SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED is deprecated - use DEFINE_SPINLOCK.

Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> DESC x86_64: Switch SMP bootup over to new CPU hotplug state machine EDESC From: "Andi Kleen" <ak@suse.de> This will allow hotplug CPU in the future and in general cleans up a lot of crufty code. It also should plug some races that the old hackish way introduces. Remove one old race workaround in NMI watchdog setup that is not needed anymore. I removed the old total sum of bogomips reporting code. The brag value of BogoMips has been greatly devalued in the last years on the open market. Real CPU hotplug will need some more work, but the infrastructure for it is there now. One drawback: the new TSC sync algorithm is less accurate than before. The old way of zeroing TSCs is too intrusive to do later. Instead the TSC of the BP is duplicated now, which is less accurate.

2005-04-16[PATCH] x86_64: Rewrite exception stack backtracingAndi Kleen
Exceptions and hardware interrupts can, to a certain degree, nest, so when attempting to follow the sequence of stacks used in order to dump their contents this has to be accounted for. Also, IST stacks have their tops stored in the TSS, so there's no need to add the stack size to get to their ends. Minor changes from AK.

2005-04-16[PATCH] x86_64: add support for Intel dual-core detection and displayingAndi Kleen
Appended patch adds the support for Intel dual-core detection and displaying the core related information in /proc/cpuinfo. It adds two new fields "core id" and "cpu cores" to x86 /proc/cpuinfo and the "core id" field for x86_64("cpu cores" field is already present in x86_64). Number of processor cores in a die is detected using cpuid(4) and this is documented in IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual (vol 2a) (http://developer.intel.com/design/pentium4/manuals/index_new.htm#sdm_vol2a) This patch also adds cpu_core_map similar to cpu_sibling_map. Slightly hacked by AK.
