2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: remove redundant generic_identify() calls when identifying cpusMagnus Damm
cpu_dev->c_identify is only called from arch/i386/common.c:identify_cpu(), and this after generic_identify() already has been called. There is no need to call this function twice and hook it in c_identify - but I may be wrong, please double check before applying. This patch also removes generic_identify() from cpu.h to avoid unnecessary future nesting. Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <magnus@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-09-26[PATCH] x86_64 kernel mapping fixKeith Mannthey
Fix for the x86_64 kernel mapping code. Without this patch the update path only inits one pmd_page worth of memory and tramples any entries on it. now the calling convention to phys_pmd_init and phys_init is to always pass a [pmd/pud] page not an offset within a page.

2006-09-26[PATCH] non lazy "sleazy" fpu implementationArjan van de Ven
Right now the kernel on x86-64 has a 100% lazy fpu behavior: after *every* context switch a trap is taken for the first FPU use to restore the FPU context lazily. This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use (since then you avoid doing the expensive save/restore all the time). However for very frequent FPU users... you take an extra trap every context switch. The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: After 5 consecutive context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context gets restored every context switch. If the app indeed uses the FPU, the trap is avoided. (the chance of the 6th time slice using FPU after the previous 5 having done so are quite high obviously). After 256 switches, this is reset and lazy behavior is returned (until there are 5 consecutive ones again). The reason for this is to give apps that do longer bursts of FPU use still the lazy behavior back after some time.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Auto size the per cpu area.Eric W. Biederman
Now for a completely different but trivial approach. I just boot tested it with 255 CPUS and everything worked. Currently everything (except module data) we place in the per cpu area we know about at compile time. So instead of allocating a fixed size for the per_cpu area allocate the number of bytes we need plus a fixed constant for to be used for modules.

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: Descriptor and trap table cleanups.Rusty Russell
The implementation comes from Zach's [RFC, PATCH 10/24] i386 Vmi descriptor changes: Descriptor and trap table cleanups. Add cleanly written accessors for IDT and GDT gates so the subarch may override them. Note that this allows the hypervisor to transparently tweak the DPL of the descriptors as well as the RPL of segments in those descriptors, with no unnecessary kernel code modification. It also allows the hypervisor implementation of the VMI to tweak the gates, allowing for custom exception frames or extra layers of indirection above the guest fault / IRQ handlers.

2006-09-26[PATCH] X86_64 monotonic_clock goes backwardsDimitri Sivanich
I've noticed some erratic behavior while testing the X86_64 version of monotonic_clock(). While spinning in a loop reading monotonic clock values (pinned to a single cpu) I noticed that the difference between subsequent values occasionally went negative (time going backwards). I found that in the following code: this_offset = get_cycles_sync(); /* FIXME: 1000 or 1000000? */ --> offset = (this_offset - last_offset)*1000 / cpu_khz; } return base + offset; the offset sometimes turns out to be 0, even though this_offset > last_offset. +Added fix From: Toyo Abe <toyoa@mvista.com> The x86_64-mm-monotonic-clock.patch in 2.6.18-rc4-mm2 made a change to the updating of monotonic_base. It now uses cycles_2_ns(). I suggest that a set_cyc2ns_scale() should be done prior to the setup_irq(). Because cycles_2_ns() can be called from the timer ISR right after the irq0 is enabled.

2006-09-26[PATCH] x86: error_code is not safe for kprobesPrasanna S.P
This patch moves the entry.S:error_entry to .kprobes.text section, since code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to entry.S::error_entry, that must be marked unsafe as well. This patch also moves all the ".previous.text" asm directives to ".previous" for kprobes section. AK: Following a similar i386 patch from Chuck Ebbert AK: Also merged Jeremy's fix in. +From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> KPROBE_ENTRY does a .section .kprobes.text, and expects its users to do a .previous at the end of the function. Unfortunately, if any code within the function switches sections, for example .fixup, then the .previous ends up putting all subsequent code into .fixup. Worse, any subsequent .fixup code gets intermingled with the code its supposed to be fixing (which is also in .fixup). It's surprising this didn't cause more havok. The fix is to use .pushsection/.popsection, so this stuff nests properly. A further cleanup would be to get rid of all .section/.previous pairs, since they're inherently fragile. +From: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Because code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to entry.S::error_code, that must be marked unsafe as well. The easiest way to do that is to move the page fault entry point to just before error_code and let it inherit the same section.

Fix a very dubious piece of code in arch/i386/kernel/cpu/common.c:cpu_init(). This clears out %fs and %gs, but clobbers %eax in the process without telling gcc. It turns out that gcc happens to be not using %eax at that point anyway so it doesn't matter much, but it looks like a bomb waiting to go off.

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: Replace i386 open-coded cmdline parsing withRusty Russell
This patch replaces the open-coded early commandline parsing throughout the i386 boot code with the generic mechanism (already used by ppc, powerpc, ia64 and s390). The code was inconsistent with whether it deletes the option from the cmdline or not, meaning some of these will get passed through the environment into init. This transformation is mainly mechanical, but there are some notable parts: 1) Grammar: s/linux never set's it up/linux never sets it up/ 2) Remove hacked-in earlyprintk= option scanning. When someone actually implements CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK, then they can use early_param(). [AK: actually it is implemented, but I'm adding the early_param it in the next x86-64 patch] 3) Move declaration of generic_apic_probe() from setup.c into asm/apic.h 4) Various parameters now moved into their appropriate files (thanks Andi). 5) All parse functions which examine arg need to check for NULL, except one where it has subtle humor value.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Allow early_param and identical __setup to existRusty Russell
We currently assume that boot parameters which are handled by early_param() will not overlap boot parameters handled by __setup: if they do, behaviour is dependent on link order, usually meaning __setup will not get called. ACPI wants to use early_param("pci"), and pci uses __setup("pci="), so we modify the core to let them coexist: "pci=noacpi" will now get passed to both.
