Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21
systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs
for x86_64.
Specifically commit b8ce33590687888ebb900d09557b8807c4539022, which
merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code.
Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did
the following:
hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL |
HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG);
However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following:
cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC |
HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT;
hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register
boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This
causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in
the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration.
My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode.

Impact: Flush the lazy MMU only once

Impact: Catch cases where lazy MMU state is active in a preemtible context
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_cpu() has been changed to disable preemption so
the checks in enter/leave will never trigger. Put the preemtible()
check into arch_flush_lazy_mmu_cpu() to catch such cases.

Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context
They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility
that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten
with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be
in lazy mode. Either way, we could end up calling it with
preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little
preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any
context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually
in a lazy state).
(Move out of line to avoid #include dependencies.)

Impact: cleanup
Split find_low_pfn_range() into two functions:

The former gets called if all of RAM fits into lowmem,
otherwise we call highmem_pfn_init().

Jeff Mahoney reported:
> With Suse's hwinfo tool, on -tip:
> WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:637 reserve_pfn_range+0x5b/0x26d()
reserve_pfn_range() is not tracking the memory range below 1MB
as non-RAM and as such is inconsistent with similar checks in
reserve_memtype() and free_memtype()
Rename the pagerange_is_ram() to pat_pagerange_is_ram() and add the
"track legacy 1MB region as non RAM" condition.
And also, fix reserve_pfn_range() to return -EINVAL, when the pfn
range is RAM. This is to be consistent with this API design.

Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen
The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for
example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation
in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update. In this
case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending
queued updates. We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting
the page table. Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications
CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when
flushing the TLB).

Some syscalls need to access the pt_regs structure, either to copy
user register state or to modifiy it. This patch adds stubs to load
the address of the pt_regs struct into the %eax register, and changes
the syscalls to take the pointer as an argument instead of relying on
the assumption that the pt_regs structure overlaps the function
arguments.
Drop the use of regparm(1) due to concern about gcc bugs, and to move
in the direction of the eventual removal of regparm(0) for asmlinkage.

Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is
reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS
buffer.
Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in
ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace()
which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().
The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov.

The generic exception handler (error_code) passes in the pt_regs

Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector
Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary
instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary
value for all threads. Fixing this also exposed the following bugs.
* cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary()
* stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making
the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value.
Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about
calling boot_init_stack_canary().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen into x86/apic
|
|
With refactoring of wake_cpu macros the 32bit code in tip doesn't
execute generic_apic_probe if CONFIG_X86_32_NON_STANDARD is not set.
Even on a x86 STANDARD cpu we need to execute the generic_apic_probe
function, as we rely on this function to execute the update_genapic
quirk which initilizes apic->wakeup_cpu.
Failing to do so results in we making a call to a null function in do_boot_cpu.
The stack trace without the patch goes like this.
