2009-01-27x86: cpu_init(): remove ugly #ifdef construct around debug register clearPeter Zijlstra
Impact: Cleanup While I was looking through the new and improved bootstrap code - great work that, thanks! I found the below a slight improvement.

2009-01-26x86: correct the CPUID pattern for MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE availabilityH. Peter Anvin
Impact: re-enable CPUID unmasking on affected processors As far as I am capable of discerning from the documentation, MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE should be available for all family 0xf CPUs, as well as family 6 for model >= 0xd (newer Pentium M). The documentation on this isn't ideal, so we need to be on the lookout for errors, still. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-26x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs, fixIngo Molnar
Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup. So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that support it. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-01-23x86: filter CPU features dependent on unavailable CPUID levelsH. Peter Anvin
Impact: Fixes potential crashes on misconfigured systems. Some CPU features require specific CPUID levels to be available in order to function, as they contain information about the operation of a specific feature. However, some BIOSes and virtualization software provide the ability to mask CPUID levels in order to support legacy operating systems. We try to enable such CPUID levels when we know how to do it, but for the remaining cases, filter out such CPU features when there is no way for us to support them. Do this in one place, in the CPUID code, with a table-driven approach. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
2009-01-23x86: handle PAT more like other CPU featuresH. Peter Anvin
Impact: Cleanup When PAT was originally introduced, it was handled specially for a few reasons: - PAT bugs are hard to track down, so we wanted to maintain a whitelist of CPUs. - The i386 and x86-64 CPUID code was not yet unified. Both of these are now obsolete, so handle PAT like any other features, including ordinary feature blacklisting due to known bugs. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

Impact: Fixes crashes with misconfigured BIOSes on XSAVE hardware Avuton Olrich reported early boot crashes with v2.6.28 and bisected it down to dc1e35c6e95e8923cf1d3510438b63c600fee1e2 ("x86, xsave: enable xsave/xrstor on cpus with xsave support"). If the CPUID limit bit in MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE is set, clear it to make all CPUID information available. This is required for some features to work, in particular XSAVE.

Conflicts: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c arch/x86/kernel/tlb_32.c Merge it here because both the cpumask changes and the ongoing percpu work is touching the TLB code. The percpu changes take precedence, as they eliminate tlb_32.c altogether. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-01-21x86: uv cleanupTejun Heo
Impact: cleanup Make the following uv related cleanups. * collect visible uv related definitions and interfaces into uv/uv.h and use it. this cleans up the messy situation where on 64bit, uv is defined properly, on 32bit generic it's dummy and on the rest undefined. after this clean up, uv is defined on 64 and dummy on 32. * update uv_flush_tlb_others() such that it takes cpumask of to-be-flushed cpus as argument, instead of that minus self, and returns yet-to-be-flushed cpumask, instead of modifying the passed in parameter. this interface change will ease dummy implementation of uv_flush_tlb_others() and makes uv tlb flush related stuff defined in tlb_uv proper.

2009-01-21x86: set %fs to __KERNEL_PERCPU unconditionally for x86_32Brian Gerst

2009-01-16x86: make pda a percpu variableTejun Heo
[ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ] As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper percpu variable. Make it so by defining per cpu symbol from linker script and declaring it in C code for SMP and simply defining it for UP. This change cleans up code and brings SMP and UP closer a bit.

2009-01-16x86: fold pda into percpu area on SMPTejun Heo
[ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ] Currently pdas and percpu areas are allocated separately. %gs points to local pda and percpu area can be reached using pda->data_offset. This patch folds pda into percpu area. Due to strange gcc requirement, pda needs to be at the beginning of the percpu area so that pda->stack_canary is at %gs:40. To achieve this, a new percpu output section macro - PERCPU_VADDR_PREALLOC() - is added and used to reserve pda sized chunk at the start of the percpu area. After this change, for boot cpu, %gs first points to pda in the data.init area and later during setup_per_cpu_areas() gets updated to point to the actual pda. This means that setup_per_cpu_areas() need to reload %gs for CPU0 while clearing pda area for other cpus as cpu0 already has modified it when control reaches setup_per_cpu_areas(). This patch also removes now unnecessary get_local_pda() and its call sites. A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into per cpu area" patch.

2009-01-16x86: use static _cpu_pda arrayTejun Heo
_cpu_pda array first uses statically allocated storage in data.init and then switches to allocated bootmem to conserve space. However, after folding pda area into percpu area, _cpu_pda array will be removed completely. Drop the reallocation part to simplify the code for soon-to-follow changes.

2009-01-12Revert "cpumask: use work_on_cpu in acpi-cpufreq.c for drv_read and drv_write"Ingo Molnar
This reverts commit 7503bfbae89eba07b46441a5d1594647f6b8ab7d. Dieter Ries reported bootup soft-hangs and bisected it back to this commit, and reverting this commit gave him a working system. The commit introduces work_on_cpu() use into the cpufreq code, but that is subtly problematic from a lock hierarchy POV: the hotplug-cpu lock is an highlevel lock that is taken before lowlevel locks, and in this codepath we are called with the policy lock taken. Dieter did not have lockdep enabled so we dont have a nice stack trace proof for this, but using work_on_cpu() in such a lowlevel place certainly looks wrong, so we revert the patch. work_on_cpu() needs to be reworked to be more generally usable.
