x86_64 add/sub atomic ops does not seems to accept integer values bigger than 32 bits as immediates. Intel's add/sub documentation specifies they have to be passed as registers. The only operations in the x86-64 architecture which accept arbitrary 64-bit immediates is "movq" to any register; similarly, the only operation which accept arbitrary 64-bit displacement is "movabs" to or from al/ax/eax/rax. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.0/gcc/Machine-Constraints.html states : e 32-bit signed integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in sign-extending x86-64 instructions). Z 32-bit unsigned integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in zero-extending x86-64 instructions). Since add/sub does sign extension, using the "e" constraint seems appropriate. It applies to 2.6.27-rc, 2.6.26, 2.6.25...

as per this discussion: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/423 Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model 64-bit P4 CPUs. So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain 64-bit apps like this. glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for it can be implemented. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@gmail.com>

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x17a3e): Section mismatch in reference from the function set_pte_vaddr_pud() to the function .init.text:spp_getpage() The function set_pte_vaddr_pud() references the function __init spp_getpage(). This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of spp_getpage is wrong. spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init. Unfortunately it calls alloc_bootmem_pages which is __init, but does it only when bootmem allocator is available (after_bootmem == 0). So annotate it accordingly.

Adds a simple IRQ autodetection to the AMD Geode MFGPT driver, and more importantly, adds some checks, if IRQs can actually be received on the chosen line. This fixes cases where MFGPT is selected as clocksource though not producing any ticks, so the kernel simply starves during boot.

Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo? I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers, but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage. If they are to stay, here are some fixes. 1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users. 2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G, so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled. 3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow. 4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative): because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted. My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G, and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

When a CPU core is shut down, all of its caches need to be flushed to prevent stale data from causing errors if the core is resumed. Current Linux suspend code performs an assignment after the flush, which can add dirty data back to the cache. On some AMD platforms, additional speculative reads have caused crashes on resume because of this dirty data. Relocate the cache flush to be the very last thing done before halting. Tie into an assembly line so the compile will not reorder it. Add some documentation explaining what is going on and why we're doing this.

AMD SB700 based systems with spread spectrum enabled use a SMM based HPET emulation to provide proper frequency setting. The SMM code is initialized with the first HPET register access and takes some time to complete. During this time the config register reads 0xffffffff. We check for max. 1000 loops whether the config register reads a non 0xffffffff value to make sure that HPET is up and running before we go further. A counting loop is safe, as the HPET access takes thousands of CPU cycles. On non SB700 based machines this check is only done once and has no side effects.

For some reason we had two parsers registered for maxcpus=. One in init/main.c and another in arch/x86/smpboot.c. So I nuked the one in arch/x86. Also 64-bit kernels used to handle maxcpus= as documented in Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt. CPUs with 'id > maxcpus' are initialized but not booted. 32-bit version for some reason ignored them even though all the infrastructure for booting them later is there. In the current mainline both 64 and 32 bit versions are broken. This patch restores the correct behaviour. I've tested x86_64 version on 4- and 8- way Core2 and 2-way Opteron based machines. Various config combinations SMP, !SMP, CPU_HOTPLUG, !CPU_HOTPLUG. Booted with maxcpus=1 and maxcpus=4, etc. Everything is working as expected. So far we've received two reports from different people confirming that 32-bit version also works fine, both on dual core laptops and 16way server machines.

Add a mechanism to let the write queue drain naturally before closing the TTY, rather than always losing that data. There is a timeout, so it can't wait too long. Provide missing locking inside acm_wb_is_avail(); it matters more now. Note, this presumes an earlier patch was applied, removing a call to this routine where the lock was held. Slightly improved diagnostics on write URB completion, so we can tell when a write URB gets killed and, if so, how much data it wrote first ... and so that I/O path is normally silent (and can't much change timings).
