2009-03-02x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switchingJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks with io permission bitmaps. x86-64 simply copies the next tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch. x86-32 invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the appropriate IO bitmap. This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction slower due to the extra fault. This tradeoff only makes sense if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they don't actually use IO instructions very often. However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on a server. Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from 64-bit code. This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to unifying this code in a later change.

2009-02-23x86: refactor x86_quirks supportIngo Molnar
Impact: cleanup Make x86_quirks support more transparent. The highlevel methods are now named: extern void x86_quirk_pre_intr_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_intr_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_trap_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_pre_time_init(void); extern void x86_quirk_time_init(void); This makes it clear that if some platform extension has to do something here that it is considered ... weird, and is discouraged. Also remove arch_hooks.h and move it into setup.h (and other header files where appropriate). Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-02-11x86: use pt_regs pointer in do_device_not_available()Brian Gerst
The generic exception handler (error_code) passes in the pt_regs pointer and the error code (unused in this case). The commit "x86: fix math_emu register frame access" changed this to pass by value, which doesn't work correctly with stack protector enabled. Change it back to use the pt_regs pointer.

2009-02-10x86: fix math_emu register frame accessTejun Heo
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless of configuration in the current code. This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate() like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler used. This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it somewhat working. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-25x86: unify the implementation of FPU trapsH. Peter Anvin
On 32 bits, we may suffer IRQ 13, or supposedly we might have a buggy implementation which gives spurious trap 16. We did not check for this on 64 bits, but there is no reason we can't make the code the same in both cases. Furthermore, this is presumably rare, so do the spurious check last, instead of first.

Impact: fix lguest, clean up 32-bit lguest used used_vectors to record vectors, but that model of allocating vectors changed and got broken, after we changed vector allocation to a per_cpu array. Try enable that for 64bit, and the array is used for all vectors that are not managed by vector_irq per_cpu array. Also kill system_vectors[], that is now a duplication of the used_vectors bitmap.

2008-12-22x86: prioritize the FPU traps for the error codeH. Peter Anvin
In the case of multiple FPU errors, prioritize the error codes, instead of returning __SI_FAULT, which ends up pushing a 0 as the error code to userspace, a POSIX violation. For i386, we will simply return if there are no errors at all; for x86-64 this is probably a "can't happen" (and the code should be unified), but for this patch, return __SI_FAULT|SI_KERNEL if this ever happens.

2008-10-22MCE: Don't run 32bit machine checks with interrupts onAndi Kleen
Running machine checks with interrupt on is a extremly bad idea. The machine check handler only runs when the system is broken and needs to finish as quickly as possible. Remove the respective bogus post 2.6.27 regression and call the machine check vector directly again. This removes only code.
