Impact: fix /proc/cpuinfo output on x86/Voyager Ever since | commit 92cb7612aee39642d109b8d935ad265e602c0563 | Author: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> | Date: Fri Oct 19 20:35:04 2007 +0200 | | x86: convert cpuinfo_x86 array to a per_cpu array We've had an extra field in cpuinfo_x86 which is cpu_index. Unfortunately, voyager has never initialised this, although the only noticeable impact seems to be that /proc/cpuinfo shows all zeros for the processor ids. Anyway, fix this by initialising the boot CPU properly and setting the index when the secondaries update.

2008-10-30x86: fix /dev/mem mmap breakage when PAT is disabledRavikiran G Thirumalai
Impact: allow /dev/mem mmaps on non-PAT CPUs/platforms Fix mmap to /dev/mem when CONFIG_X86_PAT is off and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is off mmap to /dev/mem on kernel memory has been failing since the introduction of PAT (CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n case). Seems like the check to avoid cache aliasing with PAT is kicking in even when PAT is disabled. The bug seems to have crept in 2.6.26. This patch makes sure that the mmap to regular kernel memory succeeds if CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n and PAT is disabled, and the checks to avoid cache aliasing still happens if PAT is enabled.

2008-10-28x86, gart: fix gart detection for Fam11h CPUsJoerg Roedel
Impact: fix AMD Family 11h boot hangs / USB device problems The AMD Fam11h CPUs have a K8 northbridge. This northbridge is different from other family's because it lacks GART support (as I just learned). But the kernel implicitly expects a GART if it finds an AMD northbridge. Fix this by removing the Fam11h northbridge id from the scan list of K8 northbridges. This patch also changes the message in the GART driver about missing K8 northbridges to tell that the GART is missing which is the correct information in this case.

2008-10-28x86, kdump: fix invalid access on i386 sparsememKen'ichi Ohmichi
Impact: fix kdump crash on 32-bit sparsemem kernels Since linux-2.6.27, kdump has failed on i386 sparsemem kernel. 1st-kernel gets a panic just before switching to 2nd-kernel. The cause is that a kernel accesses invalid mem_section by page_to_pfn(image->swap_page) at machine_kexec(). image->swap_page is allocated if kexec for hibernation, but it is not allocated if kdump. So if kdump, a kernel should not access the mem_section corresponding to image->swap_page. The attached patch fixes this invalid access.

2008-10-27ftrace: use a real variable for ftrace_nop in x86Steven Rostedt
Impact: avoid section mismatch warning, clean up The dynamic ftrace determines which nop is safe to use at start up. When it finds a safe nop for patching, it sets a pointer called ftrace_nop to point to the code. All call sites are then patched to this nop. Later, when tracing is turned on, this ftrace_nop variable is again used to compare the location to make sure it is a nop before we update it to an mcount call. If this fails just once, a warning is printed and ftrace is disabled. Rakib Mullick noted that the code that sets up the nop is a .init section where as the nop itself is in the .text section. This is needed because the nop is used later on after boot up. The problem is that the test of the nop jumps back to the setup code and causes a "section mismatch" warning. Rakib first recommended to convert the nop to .init.text, but as stated above, this would fail since that text is used later. The real solution is to extend Rabik's patch, and to make the ftrace_nop into an array, and just save the code from the assembly to this array. Now the section can stay as an init section, and we have a nop to use later on.

2008-10-27x86/uv: memory allocation at initializationCliff Wickman
Impact: on SGI UV platforms, fix boot crash UV initialization is currently called too late to call alloc_bootmem_pages(). The current sequence is: start_kernel() mem_init() free_all_bootmem() <--- discard of bootmem rest_init() kernel_init() smp_prepare_cpus() native_smp_prepare_cpus() uv_system_init() <--- uses alloc_bootmem_pages() It should be calling kmalloc().

2008-10-27xen: fix Xen domU boot with batched mprotectChris Lalancette
Impact: fix guest kernel boot crash on certain configs Recent i686 2.6.27 kernels with a certain amount of memory (between 736 and 855MB) have a problem booting under a hypervisor that supports batched mprotect (this includes the RHEL-5 Xen hypervisor as well as any 3.3 or later Xen hypervisor). The problem ends up being that xen_ptep_modify_prot_commit() is using virt_to_machine to calculate which pfn to update. However, this only works for pages that are in the p2m list, and the pages coming from change_pte_range() in mm/mprotect.c are kmap_atomic pages. Because of this, we can run into the situation where the lookup in the p2m table returns an INVALID_MFN, which we then try to pass to the hypervisor, which then (correctly) denies the request to a totally bogus pfn. The right thing to do is to use arbitrary_virt_to_machine, so that we can be sure we are modifying the right pfn. This unfortunately introduces a performance penalty because of a full page-table-walk, but we can avoid that penalty for pages in the p2m list by checking if virt_addr_valid is true, and if so, just doing the lookup in the p2m table. The attached patch implements this, and allows my 2.6.27 i686 based guest with 768MB of memory to boot on a RHEL-5 hypervisor again. Thanks to Jeremy for the suggestions about how to fix this particular issue.

2008-10-23x86: restore the old swiotlb alloc_coherent behaviorFUJITA Tomonori
This restores the old swiotlb alloc_coherent behavior (before the alloc_coherent rewrite): http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/200 The old alloc_coherent avoids GFP_DMA allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA allocation. If it fails, alloc_coherent calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent (in short, we rarely used swiotlb_alloc_coherent). After the alloc_coherent rewrite, dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) directly calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent. It means that we possibly can't handle a device having dma_masks > 24bit < 32bits since swiotlb_alloc_coherent doesn't have the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. This patch fixes x86's swiotlb alloc_coherent to use the GFP_DMA retry mechanism, which dma_generic_alloc_coherent() provides now (pci-nommu.c and GART IOMMU driver also use dma_generic_alloc_coherent).

2008-10-23x86: use GFP_DMA for 24bit coherent_dma_maskFUJITA Tomonori
dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) avoids GFP_DMA allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA allocation. This is because dma_alloc_coherent avoids precious GFP_DMA zone if possible. This is also how the old dma_alloc_coherent (arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c) works. However, if the coherent_dma_mask of a device is 24bit, there is no point to go into the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. We had better use GFP_DMA in the first place.
