2007-07-21i386: Move all simple string operations out of lineAndi Kleen
The compiler generally generates reasonable inline code for the simple cases and for the rest it's better for code size for them to be out of line. Also there they can be potentially optimized more in the future. In fact they probably should be in a .S file because they're all pure assembly, but that's for another day. Also some code style cleanup on them while I was on it (this seems to be the last untouched really early Linux code) This saves ~12k text for a defconfig kernel with gcc 4.1.

2007-07-20xen: disable vdso "nosegneg" on native bootRoland McGrath
One of the nice ideas behind paravirt is that CONFIG_XEN=y can be included in a standard configuration and be no worse for native booting than as a Xen guest. The glibc feature that supports the vDSO "nosegneg" note is designed specifically to make this easy. You just have to flip one bit at boot time. This patch makes Xen flip the bit, so a CONFIG_XEN=y kernel on bare hardware does not make glibc use the less-optimized library builds.

2007-07-19i386: Allow KVM on i386 nonpaeAvi Kivity
Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family. Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(), this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae. Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed without constraints. It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

2007-07-19drivers/edac: add new nmi rescanDave Jiang
Provides a way for NMI reported errors on x86 to notify the EDAC subsystem pending ECC errors by writing to a software state variable. Here's the reworked patch. I added an EDAC stub to the kernel so we can have variables that are in the kernel even if EDAC is a module. I also implemented the idea of using the chip driver to select error detection mode via module parameter and eliminate the kernel compile option. Please review/test. Thx!

2007-07-19define new percpu interface for shared dataFenghua Yu
per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

If the user has asked for the vertical height registers to be recomputed by setting bit 15 in the video mode number, we do so without clearing the Protect bit in the Vertical Retrace Register before setting the Overflow register.

2007-07-18[x86 setup] Fix assembly constraintsH. Peter Anvin
Fix incorrect assembly constraints. In particular, fix memory constraints used inside push..pop, which can cause invalid operation since gcc may generate %esp-relative references. Additionally: outl() should have "dN" not "dn". query_mca() shouldn't listen 16/32-bit registers in an 8-bit only context. has_eflag(): the "mask" is only used well after both the stack pointer and the output registers have been touched; this requires the output registers to be earlyclobbers (=&) and the input to exclude memory (so "ri", not "g").

2007-07-18[x86 setup] build/tools.c: fix commentH. Peter Anvin
Correct a comment in arch/i386/boot/build/tools.c; we now build the kernel from only two components instead of three, since the boot sector has been integrated in the setup code. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

2007-07-18xen: use iret directly when possibleJeremy Fitzhardinge
Most of the time we can simply use the iret instruction to exit the kernel, rather than having to use the iret hypercall - the only exception is if we're returning into vm86 mode, or from delivering an NMI (which we don't support yet). When running native, iret has the behaviour of testing for a pending interrupt atomically with re-enabling interrupts. Unfortunately there's no way to do this with Xen, so there's a window in which we could get a recursive exception after enabling events but before actually returning to userspace. This causes a problem: if the nested interrupt causes one of the task's TIF_WORK_MASK flags to be set, they will not be checked again before returning to userspace. This means that pending work may be left pending indefinitely, until the process enters and leaves the kernel again. The net effect is that a pending signal or reschedule event could be delayed for an unbounded amount of time. To deal with this, the xen event upcall handler checks to see if the EIP is within the critical section of the iret code, after events are (potentially) enabled up to the iret itself. If its within this range, it calls the iret critical section fixup, which adjusts the stack to deal with any unrestored registers, and then shifts the stack frame up to replace the previous invocation.

2007-07-18xen: suppress abs symbol warnings for unused reloc pointersJeremy Fitzhardinge
arch/i386/xen/xen-asm.S defines some small pieces of code which are used to implement a few paravirt_ops. They're designed so they can be used either in-place, or be inline patched into their callsites if there's enough space. Some of those operations need to make calls out (specifically, if you re-enable events [interrupts], and there's a pending event at that time). These calls need the call instruction to be relocated if the code is patched inline. In this case xen_foo_reloc is a section-relative symbol which points to xen_foo's required relocation. Other operations have no need of a relocation, and so their corresponding xen_bar_reloc is absolute 0. These are the cases which are triggering the warning. This patch adds those symbols to the list of safe abs symbols. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Cc: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
2007-07-18xen: Attempt to patch inline versions of common operationsJeremy Fitzhardinge
This patchs adds the mechanism to allow us to patch inline versions of common operations. The implementations of the direct-access versions save_fl, restore_fl, irq_enable and irq_disable are now in assembler, and the same code is used for both out of line and inline uses.

2007-07-18xen: Place vcpu_info structure into per-cpu memoryJeremy Fitzhardinge
An experimental patch for Xen allows guests to place their vcpu_info structs anywhere. We try to use this to place the vcpu_info into the PDA, which allows direct access. If this works, then switch to using direct access operations for irq_enable, disable, save_fl and restore_fl.
