2008-01-30x86: x86 user_regset cleanupRoland McGrath
This removes a bunch of dead code that is no longer needed now that the user_regset interfaces are being used for all these jobs. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 ptrace user_regsetRoland McGrath
This cleans up the PTRACE_*REGS* request code so each one is just a simple call to copy_regset_to_user or copy_regset_from_user. The ptrace layouts already match the user_regset formats (core dump formats).

2008-01-30x86: x86 i387 cleanupRoland McGrath
This removes all the old code that is no longer used after the i387 unification and cleanup. The i387_64.h is renamed to i387.h with no changes, but since it replaces the nonempty one-line stub i387.h it looks like a big diff and not a rename.

2008-01-30x86: x86 i387 user_regsetRoland McGrath
This revamps the i387 code to be shared across 32-bit, 64-bit, and 32-on-64. It does so by consolidating the code in one place based on the user_regset accessor interfaces. This switches 32-bit to using the i387_64.h header and 64-bit to using the i387.c that was previously i387_32.c, but that's what took the least cleanup in each file. Here i387.h is stubbed to always include i387_64.h rather than renaming the file, to keep this diff smaller and easier to read.

2008-01-30x86: i387 renamingRoland McGrath

2008-01-30x86: x86 user_regset math_emuRoland McGrath
This converts the ptrace/signal accessors for i387 math_emu state to the user_regset interface style, and calls these from the old interfaces. It also cleans up math_emulate's ptrace check to be a single-step check, which is what it really wants.

2008-01-30x86: x86 i387 header cleanupRoland McGrath
This moves some code into asm-x86/i387_64.h in preparation for unifying this code between 32 and 64. The 32-bit versions of some things are copied in some existing names changed to match 32-bit names and share code. For 64, save_i387 is moved into an inline from i387_64.c; this matches restore_i387, which is already an inline, and makes sense since there is exactly one caller (in signal_64.c). The save_i387 function could use more cosmetic cleanup, but it is just moved verbatim in this patch.

2008-01-30x86: move definitions to processor.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa

2008-01-30x86: provide 64-bit with a load_sp0 function.Glauber de Oliveira Costa
Paravirt guests need to inform the underlying hypervisor whenever the sp0 tss field changes. i386 already has such a function, and we use it for x86_64 too. There's an unnecessary (for 64-bit) msr handling part in the original version, and it is placed around an ifdef. Making no more sense in processor_32.h, it is moved to the common header Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Although slighly different, the tss_struct is very similar in x86_64 and i386. The really different part, which matchs the hardware vision of it, is now called x86_hw_tss, and each of the architectures provides yours. It's then used as a field in the outter tss_struct.

2008-01-30x86, kexec: force x86 arches to boot kdump kernels on boot cpuNeil Horman
Recently a kdump bug was discovered in which a system would hang inside calibrate_delay during the booting of the kdump kernel. This was caused by the fact that the jiffies counter was not being incremented during timer calibration. The root cause of this problem was found to be a bios misconfiguration of the hypertransport bus. On system affected by this hang, the bios had assigned APIC ids which used extended apic bits (more than the nominal 4 bit ids's), but failed to configure bit 17 of the hypertransport transaction config register, which indicated that the mask for the destination field of interrupt packets accross the ht bus (see section 3.3.9 of http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/26094.PDF). If a crash occurs on a cpu with an APIC id that extends beyond 4 bits, it will not recieve interrupts during the kdump kernel boot, and this hang will be the result. The fix is to add this patch, whcih add an early pci quirk check, to forcibly enable this bit in the httcfg register. This enables all cpus on a system to receive interrupts, and allows kdump kernel bootup to procede normally.

2008-01-30x86: adjust enable_NMI_through_LVT0()Jan Beulich
Its previous use in a call to on_each_cpu() was pointless, as at the time that code gets executed only one CPU is online. Further, the function can be __cpuinit, and for this to work without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU setup_nmi() must also get an attribute (this one can even be __init; on 64-bits check_timer() also was lacking that attribute).

2008-01-30x86: FIFO ticket spinlocksNick Piggin
Introduce ticket lock spinlocks for x86 which are FIFO. The implementation is described in the comments. The straight-line lock/unlock instruction sequence is slightly slower than the dec based locks on modern x86 CPUs, however the difference is quite small on Core2 and Opteron when working out of cache, and becomes almost insignificant even on P4 when the lock misses cache. trylock is more significantly slower, but they are relatively rare. On an 8 core (2 socket) Opteron, spinlock unfairness is extremely noticable, with a userspace test having a difference of up to 2x runtime per thread, and some threads are starved or "unfairly" granted the lock up to 1 000 000 (!) times. After this patch, all threads appear to finish at exactly the same time. The memory ordering of the lock does conform to x86 standards, and the implementation has been reviewed by Intel and AMD engineers. The algorithm also tells us how many CPUs are contending the lock, so lockbreak becomes trivial and we no longer have to waste 4 bytes per spinlock for it. After this, we can no longer spin on any locks with preempt enabled and cannot reenable interrupts when spinning on an irq safe lock, because at that point we have already taken a ticket and the would deadlock if the same CPU tries to take the lock again. These are questionable anyway: if the lock happens to be called under a preempt or interrupt disabled section, then it will just have the same latency problems. The real fix is to keep critical sections short, and ensure locks are reasonably fair (which this patch does).

2008-01-30spinlock: lockbreak cleanupNick Piggin
The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty. Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to a potentially less optimal trylock. Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a __raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is not set. Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up with that break_lock then?).

2008-01-30x86: EFI runtime service supportHuang, Ying
This patch adds basic runtime services support for EFI x86_64 system. The main file of the patch is the addition of efi_64.c for x86_64. This file is modeled after the EFI IA32 avatar. EFI runtime services initialization are implemented in efi_64.c. Some x86_64 specifics are worth noting here. On x86_64, parameters passed to EFI firmware services need to follow the EFI calling convention. For this purpose, a set of functions named efi_call<x> (<x> is the number of parameters) are implemented. EFI function calls are wrapped before calling the firmware service. The duplicated code between efi_32.c and efi_64.c is placed in efi.c to remove them from efi_32.c.
