Previously there was a AMD specific quirk to handle the case of AMD Fam10h MWAIT not supporting any C states. But it turns out that CPUID already has ways to detectly detect that without using special quirks. The new code simply checks if MWAIT supports at least C1 and doesn't use it if it doesn't. No more vendor specific code. Note this is does not simply clear MWAIT because MWAIT can be still useful even without C states. Credit goes to Ben Serebrin for pointing out the (nearly) obvious.

Previously it was only run for Intel CPUs, but AMD Fam10h implements MWAIT too. This matches 64bit behaviour. Signed-off-by:

Unify the definiton of: v8086_mode user_mode user_mode_vm stack_pointer instruction_pointer frame_pointer in ptrace.h to make it clear where the differences are between 32 and 64 bit. Changes macros to static inlines as well. Signed-off-by:

This is against current x86.git. The size of the system call table for 32-bit x86 kernels is obtained by compile-time calculation of the sys_call_table array, not from the value, which the NR_syscalls macro expands to. This trivial patch removes the fossil macro. Manually tested by grepping the x86 files for the "NR_syscalls" string. No relevant use cases found. Build-tested using allyesconfig, allnoconfig and a couple of randconfig instances. All builds successfully finished. Runtime test performed using a stripped-down Debian-ish config. The system booted successfully. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the EXPORT_SYMBOL for: x86_cpu_to_node_map_init x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_ptr ... thus fixing the section mismatch problem. Also, the mem -> node hash lookup is fixed. Signed-off-by:

Remove duplicate set_pte* operations. PAE still needs to have special variants of some of these because it can't atomically update a 64-bit pte, so there's still some duplication. Signed-off-by:

Based on patch from Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com>. Don't rely on kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE) returning PAGE_SIZE aligned memory (Xen requires GDT *and* LDT to be page-aligned). Using the page allocator interface also removes the (albeit small) slab allocator overhead. The same change being done for 64-bits for consistency. Further, the Xen hypercall interface expects the LDT address to be virtual, not machine. [ Adjusted to unified ldt.c - Jeremy ] Signed-off-by:

Rather than remove and/or mangle inb_p/outb_p we want to remove the use of them from inappropriate places. For the PIC/PIT this may eventually depend on 32/64bitism or similar so start by adding inb/outb_pit and inb/outb_pic so that we can make them use any scheme we settle on without disturbing the existing, correct (for ISA), port 0x80 usage. (eg we can make inb_pit use udelay without messing up inb_p). Floppy already does this for the fdc. That really only leaves the CMOS as a core logic item to tackle, and bits of parallel port handling in the chipset layers. Signed-off-by:

Highlight peculiar cases in singles-step kprobe handling. In reenter_kprobe(), a breakpoint in KPROBE_HIT_SS case can only occur when single-stepping a breakpoint on which a probe was installed. Since such probes are single-stepped inline, identifying these cases is unambiguous. All other cases leading up to KPROBE_HIT_SS are possible bugs. Identify and WARN_ON such cases. Signed-off-by:

an otherwise idle system takes about 3 ticks per network interface in unregister_netdev() due to multiple calls to synchronize_rcu(), which adds up to quite a few seconds for tearing down thousands of interfaces. By flushing pending rcu callbacks in the idle loop, the system makes progress hundreds of times faster. If this is indeed a sane thing to, it probably needs to be done for other architectures than x86. And yes, the network stack shouldn't call synchronize_rcu() quite so much, but fixing that is a little more involved. Signed-off-by:

The ENDPROCs() were not used everywhere. Some code used just END() instead, while other code used nothing. um/sys-i386/checksum.S didn't #include <linux/linkage.h> . I also got confused because gcc puts the .type near the ENTRY, while ENDPROC puts it on the opposite end. Signed off by: John Reiser <jreiser@BitWagon.com> Signed-off-by:

Copy the prefetch of map_sem from X86_64 and move the check notify_page_fault (soon to be kprobe_handle_fault) out of the unlikely if() statement. This makes the X86_32|64 pagefault handlers closer to each other. Signed-off-by:

is_prefetch was the last user of get_segment_eip and only on X86_32. This function returned the faulting instruction's address and set the upper segment limit. Instead, use the convert_ip_to_linear helper and rely on probe_kernel_address to do the segment checks which was already done everywhere the segment limit was being checked on X86_32. Remove get_segment_eip as well. Signed-off-by:

Where x86_32 passed zero in the high 32 bits, use wrmsrl which will zero extend for us. This allows ifdefs for 32/64 bit to be eliminated. Eliminate ifdef in step.c. Similar cleanup was done when unifying kprobes_32|64.c and wrmsr() was chosen there over wrmsrl(). This patch changes these to wrmsrl. Signed-off-by:

Change static bios_cpu_apicid array to a per_cpu data variable. This includes using a static array used during initialization similar to the way x86_cpu_to_apicid[] is handled. There is one early use of bios_cpu_apicid in apic_is_clustered_box(). The other reference in cpu_present_to_apicid() is called after smp_set_apicids() has setup the percpu version of bios_cpu_apicid.
