2008-12-24x86: disable X86_PTRACE_BTSIngo Molnar
there's a new ptrace arch level feature in .28: config X86_PTRACE_BTS bool "Branch Trace Store" it has broken fork() handling: the old DS area gets copied over into a new task without clearing it. Fixes exist but they came too late: c5dee61: x86, bts: memory accounting bf53de9: x86, bts: add fork and exit handling and are queued up for v2.6.29. This shows that the facility is still not tested well enough to release into a stable kernel - disable it for now and reactivate in .29. In .29 the hardware-branch-tracer will use the DS/BTS facilities too - hopefully resulting in better code. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: cleanup, fix warning This warning: arch/x86/mm/pat.c: In function track_pfn_vma_copy: arch/x86/mm/pat.c:701: warning: passing argument 5 of follow_phys from incompatible pointer type Triggers because physical addresses are resource_size_t, not u64. This really matters when calling an interface like follow_phys() which takes a pointer to a physical address -- although on x86, being littleendian, it would generally work anyway as long as the memory region wasn't completely uninitialized.

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.

2008-12-20x86: fix resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110LDmitry Adamushko
Impact: fix deadlock This is in response to the following bug report: Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100 Subject : resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110L Submitter : Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de> Date : 2008-11-25 08:48 (19 days old) Handled-By : Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> [ The deadlock scenario has been discovered by Andreas Mohr ] I think I might have a logical explanation why the system: (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100) might hang upon resuming, OTOH it should have likely hanged each and every time. (1) possible deadlock in microcode_resume_cpu() if either 'if' section is taken; (2) now, I don't see it in spec. and can't experimentally verify it (newer ucodes don't seem to be available for my Core2duo)... but logically-wise, I'd think that when read upon resuming, the 'microcode revision' (MSR 0x8B) should be back to its original one (we need to reload ucode anyway so it doesn't seem logical if a cpu doesn't drop the version)... if so, the comparison with memcmp() for the full 'struct cpu_signature' is wrong... and that's how one of the aforementioned 'if' sections might have been triggered - leading to a deadlock. Obviously, in my tests I simulated loading/resuming with the ucode of the same version (just to see that the file is loaded/re-loaded upon resuming) so this issue has never popped up. I'd appreciate if someone with an appropriate system might give a try to the 2nd patch (titled "fix a comparison && deadlock..."). In any case, the deadlock situation is a must-have fix.

Impact: fix wrong cache sharing detection on platforms supporting > 8 bit apicid's In the presence of extended topology eumeration leaf 0xb provided by cpuid, 32bit extended initial_apicid in cpuinfo_x86 struct will be updated by detect_extended_topology(). At this instance, we should also reinit the apicid (which could also potentially be extended to 32bit). With out this there will potentially be duplicate apicid's populated in the per cpu's cpuinfo_x86 struct, resulting in wrong cache sharing topology etc detected by init_intel_cacheinfo().
