2008-07-18x86 BIOS interface for RTC on SGI UVRuss Anderson
Real-time code needs to know the number of cycles per second on SGI UV. The information is provided via a run time BIOS call. This patch provides the linux side of that interface. This is the first of several run time BIOS calls to be defined in uv/bios.h and bios_uv.c. Note that BIOS_CALL() is just a stub for now. The bios side is being worked on.

2008-07-18x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternativesMaciej W. Rozycki
Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time. Remove the X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum. Remove apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed. Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends. The use of ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have used it for readability's sake. I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead and here it is. Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP "feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days). Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I have disregarded it. I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I have left changes to them out. The option will get removed from them at the next run. Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will everywhere.

2008-07-16ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparamZhao Yakui
"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH) C-states. When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1, and use IO accesses for deeper C-states. This option is useful for power and performance comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs where broken MWAIT support is advertised. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10807 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
2008-07-16ACPI: Create "idle=halt" bootparamZhao Yakui
"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using the halt instruction. No MWAIT, no IO accesses, no C-states deeper than C1. If something is broken in the idle code, "idle=halt" is a less severe workaround than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

2008-07-12x64, x2apic/intr-remap: add x2apic support, including enabling ↵Suresh Siddha
interrupt-remapping x2apic support. Interrupt-remapping must be enabled before enabling x2apic, this is needed to ensure that IO interrupts continue to work properly after the cpu mode is changed to x2apic(which uses 32bit extended physical/cluster apic id). On systems where apicid's are > 255, BIOS can handover the control to OS in x2apic mode. Or if the OS handover was in legacy xapic mode, check if it is capable of x2apic mode. And if we succeed in enabling Interrupt-remapping, then we can enable x2apic mode in the CPU.

2008-07-12x64, x2apic/intr-remap: MSI and MSI-X support for interrupt remapping ↵Suresh Siddha
infrastructure MSI and MSI-X support for interrupt remapping infrastructure. MSI address register will be programmed with interrupt-remapping table entry(IRTE) index and the IRTE will contain information about the vector, cpu destination, etc. For MSI-X, all the IRTE's will be consecutively allocated in the table, and the address registers will contain the starting index to the block and the data register will contain the subindex with in that block. This also introduces a new irq_chip for cleaner irq migration (in the process context as opposed to the current irq migration in the context of an interrupt. interrupt-remapping infrastructure will help us achieve this). As MSI is edge triggered, irq migration is a simple atomic update(of vector and cpu destination) of IRTE and flushing the hardware cache.

2008-07-12x64, x2apic/intr-remap: IO-APIC support for interrupt-remappingSuresh Siddha
IO-APIC support in the presence of interrupt-remapping infrastructure. IO-APIC RTE will be programmed with interrupt-remapping table entry(IRTE) index and the IRTE will contain information about the vector, cpu destination, trigger mode etc, which traditionally was present in the IO-APIC RTE. Introduce a new irq_chip for cleaner irq migration (in the process context as opposed to the current irq migration in the context of an interrupt. interrupt-remapping infrastructure will help us achieve this cleanly). For edge triggered, irq migration is a simple atomic update(of vector and cpu destination) of IRTE and flush the hardware cache. For level triggered, we need to modify the io-apic RTE aswell with the update vector information, along with modifying IRTE with vector and cpu destination. So irq migration for level triggered is little bit more complex compared to edge triggered migration. But the good news is, we use the same algorithm for level triggered migration as we have today, only difference being, we now initiate the irq migration from process context instead of the interrupt context. In future, when we do a directed EOI (combined with cpu EOI broadcast suppression) to the IO-APIC, level triggered irq migration will also be as simple as edge triggered migration and we can do the irq migration with a simple atomic update to IO-APIC RTE. TBD: some tests/changes needed in the presence of fixup_irqs() for level triggered irq migration.

Taking a look at this portion of arch/x86/kernel/process_64.o revealed this crutial difference: | good: 99c: 8c e0 mov %fs,%eax | 99e: 89 45 cc mov %eax,-0x34(%rbp) | | bad: 99c: 8c 65 cc mov %fs,-0x34(%rbp) which is due to: | unsigned fsindex; | - asm volatile("movl %%fs,%0" : "=r" (fsindex)); | + savesegment(fs, fsindex); savesegment() is implemented as: #define savesegment(seg, value) \ asm("mov %%" #seg ",%0":"=rm" (value) : : "memory") note the "m" modifier - it allows GCC to generate the segment move into a memory operand as well. But regarding segment operands there's a subtle detail in the x86 instruction set: the above 16-bit moves are zero-extend, but only if it goes to a register. If it goes to a memory operand, -0x34(%rbp) in the above case, there's no zero-extend to 32-bit and the instruction will only save 16 bits instead of the intended 32-bit. The other 16 bits is random data - which can cause problems when that value is used later on. The solution is to only allow segment operands to go to registers. This fix allows my test-system to boot up without crashing. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-11x86_64: add pseudo-features for 32-bit compat syscallJeremy Fitzhardinge
Add pseudo-feature bits to describe whether the CPU supports sysenter and/or syscall from ia32-compat userspace. This removes a hardcoded test in vdso32-setup. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-07-10x86, VisWS: turn into generic arch, add NR_IRQS quirkIngo Molnar
NR_IRQS: let VISWS be just a sub-case of the generic code. This can create a somewhat larger irq_desc[] array if NR_CPUS is high but that should not worry VisWS which has 4 CPUs at most. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-10x86, VisWS: turn into generic arch, eliminate ↵Ingo Molnar
include/asm-x86/mach-visws/setup_arch.h use the generic version of setup_arch.h - it's the same. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-10x86, VisWS: turn into generic arch, move definitionsIngo Molnar
move the SGIVW definitions from setup_arch.h into its own header file. preparation for turning VISWS into a generic PC architecture. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-10x86, VisWS: turn into generic arch, create include/asm-x86/visws/Ingo Molnar
move the include/asm-x86/mach-visws/ VISWS specific hardware details include files into include/asm-x86/visws, to be used from generic code. No code changed. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
