2009-10-13x86/paravirt: Use normal calling sequences for irq enable/disableJeremy Fitzhardinge
Bastian Blank reported a boot crash with stackprotector enabled, and debugged it back to edx register corruption. For historical reasons irq enable/disable/save/restore had special calling sequences to make them more efficient. With the more recent introduction of higher-level and more general optimisations this is no longer necessary so we can just use the normal PVOP_ macros. This fixes some residual bugs in the old implementations which left edx liable to inadvertent clobbering. Also, fix some bugs in __PVOP_VCALLEESAVE which were revealed by actual use.

This reverts commit 9bcbdd9c58617f1301dd4f17c738bb9bc73aca70. The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in: f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency, this could cause a performance regression. The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more often.

2009-10-08x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interruptsArjan van de Ven
Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using iwlagn. It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible. The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that: 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up. I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec range.

This is needed so we can balance the pagecount against mapcount checking.

2009-10-02x86: EDAC: MCE: Fix MCE decoding callback logicIngo Molnar
Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a non-default callback only on CPU families which support it. While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE code i also noticed a few other things and made the following cleanups/fixes: - Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not good, obviously. - The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h. - Added the more correct fallback printk of: No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type. Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode. On CPUs that dont have a decoder. - Made the surrounding code more readable. Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback - without having to check the CPU versions during the printout itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the decode-print function.

2009-10-01x86: Optimize cmpxchg64() at build-time some moreLinus Torvalds
Try to avoid the 'alternates()' code when we can statically determine that cmpxchg8b is fine. We already have that CONFIG_x86_CMPXCHG64 (enabled by PAE support), and we could easily also enable it for some of the CPU cases. Note, this patch only adds CMPXCHG8B for the obvious Intel CPU's, not for others. (There was something really messy about cmpxchg8b and clone CPU's, so if you enable it on other CPUs later, do it carefully.) If we avoid that asm-alternative thing when we can assume the instruction exists, we'll generate less support crud, and we'll avoid the whole issue with that extra 'nop' for padding instruction sizes etc. LKML-Reference: <alpine.LFD.2.01.0909301743150.6996@localhost.localdomain> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-09-30Revert "x86, mce: do not compile mcelog message on AMD"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 22223c9b417be5fd0ab2cf9ad17eb7bd1e19f7b9, as requested by Andi Kleen: "Obviously kernels compiled with AMD support can still run on non AMD systems, so messages like this can never be removed at compile time."

2009-09-27const: mark struct vm_struct_operationsAlexey Dobriyan
* mark struct vm_area_struct::vm_ops as const * mark vm_ops in AGP code But leave TTM code alone, something is fishy there with global vm_ops being used. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-09-27x86: Fix hwpoison code related build failure on 32-bit NUMAQLinus Torvalds
This build failure triggers: In file included from include/linux/suspend.h:8, from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets_32.c:11, from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:2: include/linux/mm.h:503:2: error: #error SECTIONS_WIDTH+NODES_WIDTH+ZONES_WIDTH > BITS_PER_LONG - NR_PAGEFLAGS Because due to the hwpoison page flag we ran out of page flags on 32-bit. Dont turn on hwpoison on 32-bit NUMA (it's rare in any case). Also clean up the Kconfig dependencies in the generic MM code by introducing ARCH_SUPPORTS_MEMORY_FAILURE.
