      x86_64: initialize this_cpu_off to __per_cpu_load · cd3adf52
      Tejun Heo authored
      On x86_64, if get_per_cpu_var() is used before per cpu area is setup
      (if lockdep is turned on, it happens), it needs this_cpu_off to point
      to __per_cpu_load.  Initialize accordingly.

      percpu: add optimized generic percpu accessors · 6dbde353
      Ingo Molnar authored
      It is an optimization and a cleanup, and adds the following new
      generic percpu methods:
      
        percpu_read()
        percpu_write()
        percpu_add()
        percpu_sub()
        percpu_and()
        percpu_or()
        percpu_xor()
      
      and implements support for them on x86. (other architectures will fall
      back to a default implementation)
      
      The advantage is that for example to read a local percpu variable,
      instead of this sequence:
      
       return __get_cpu_var(var);
      
       ffffffff8102ca2b:	48 8b 14 fd 80 09 74 	mov    -0x7e8bf680(,%rdi,8),%rdx
       ffffffff8102ca32:	81
       ffffffff8102ca33:	48 c7 c0 d8 59 00 00 	mov    $0x59d8,%rax
       ffffffff8102ca3a:	48 8b 04 10          	mov    (%rax,%rdx,1),%rax
      
      We can get a single instruction by using the optimized variants:
      
       return percpu_read(var);
      
       ffffffff8102ca3f:	65 48 8b 05 91 8f fd 	mov    %gs:0x7efd8f91(%rip),%rax
      
      I also cleaned up the x86-specific APIs and made the x86 code use
      these new generic percpu primitives.
      
      tj: * fixed generic percpu_sub() definition as Roel Kluin pointed out
          * added percpu_and() for completeness's sake
          * made generic percpu ops atomic against preemption

      x86: make pda a percpu variable · b12d8db8
      Tejun Heo authored
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
      
      As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper
      percpu variable.  Make it so by defining per cpu symbol from linker
      script and declaring it in C code for SMP and simply defining it for
      UP.  This change cleans up code and brings SMP and UP closer a bit.

      x86: merge 64 and 32 SMP percpu handling · 9939ddaf
      Tejun Heo authored
      Now that pda is allocated as part of percpu, percpu doesn't need to be
      accessed through pda.  Unify x86_64 SMP percpu access with x86_32 SMP
      one.  Other than the segment register, operand size and the base of
      percpu symbols, they behave identical now.
      
      This patch replaces now unnecessary pda->data_offset with a dummy
      field which is necessary to keep stack_canary at its place.  This
      patch also moves per_cpu_offset initialization out of init_gdt() into
      setup_per_cpu_areas().  Note that this change also necessitates
      explicit per_cpu_offset initializations in voyager_smp.c.
      
      With this change, x86_OP_percpu()'s are as efficient on x86_64 as on
      x86_32 and also x86_64 can use assembly PER_CPU macros.

      x86: fold pda into percpu area on SMP · 1a51e3a0
      Tejun Heo authored
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
      
      Currently pdas and percpu areas are allocated separately.  %gs points
      to local pda and percpu area can be reached using pda->data_offset.
      This patch folds pda into percpu area.
      
      Due to strange gcc requirement, pda needs to be at the beginning of
      the percpu area so that pda->stack_canary is at %gs:40.  To achieve
      this, a new percpu output section macro - PERCPU_VADDR_PREALLOC() - is
      added and used to reserve pda sized chunk at the start of the percpu
      area.
      
      After this change, for boot cpu, %gs first points to pda in the
      data.init area and later during setup_per_cpu_areas() gets updated to
      point to the actual pda.  This means that setup_per_cpu_areas() need
      to reload %gs for CPU0 while clearing pda area for other cpus as cpu0
      already has modified it when control reaches setup_per_cpu_areas().
      
      This patch also removes now unnecessary get_local_pda() and its call
      sites.
      
      A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into
      per cpu area" patch.

      _cpu_pda array first uses statically allocated storage in data.init
      and then switches to allocated bootmem to conserve space.  However,
      after folding pda area into percpu area, _cpu_pda array will be
      removed completely.  Drop the reallocation part to simplify the code
      for soon-to-follow changes.

      x86: load pointer to pda into %gs while brining up a CPU · f32ff538
      Tejun Heo authored
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
      
      CPU startup code in head_64.S loaded address of a zero page into %gs
      for temporary use till pda is loaded but address to the actual pda is
      available at the point.  Load the real address directly instead.
      
      This will help unifying percpu and pda handling later on.

      x86: make percpu symbols zerobased on SMP · 3e5d8f97
      Tejun Heo authored
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]
      
      This patch makes percpu symbols zerobased on x86_64 SMP by adding
      PERCPU_VADDR() to vmlinux.lds.h which helps setting explicit vaddr on
      the percpu output section and using it in vmlinux_64.lds.S.  A new
      PHDR is added as existing ones cannot contain sections near address
      zero.  PERCPU_VADDR() also adds a new symbol __per_cpu_load which
      always points to the vaddr of the loaded percpu data.init region.
      
      The following adjustments have been made to accomodate the address
      change.
      
      * code to locate percpu gdt_page in head_64.S is updated to add the
        load address to the gdt_page offset.
      
      * __per_cpu_load is used in places where access to the init data area
        is necessary.
      
      * pda->data_offset is initialized soon after C code is entered as zero
        value doesn't work anymore.
      
      This patch is mostly taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Base percpu
      variables at zero" patch.

      Fix timeouts in sys_pselect7 · 62568510
      Bernd Schmidt authored
      Since we (Analog Devices) updated our Blackfin kernel to 2.6.28, we've
      seen occasional 5-second hangs from telnet.  telnetd calls select with a
      NULL timeout, but with the new kernel, the system call occasionally
      returns 0, which causes telnet to call sleep (5).  This did not happen
      with earlier kernels.
      
      The code in sys_pselect7 looks a bit strange, in particular the variable
      "to" is initialized to NULL, then changed if a non-null timeout was
      passed in, but not used further.  It needs to be passed to
      core_sys_select instead of &end_time.
      
      This bug was introduced by 8ff3e8e8
      ("select: switch select() and poll() over to hrtimers").

      fix early_serial_setup() regression · 125c97d8
      Helge Deller authored
      Commit b430428a ("8250: Don't clobber
      spinlocks.") introduced a regression on the parisc architecture, which
      broke the handover to the serial port at boottime.
      
      early_serial_setup() was changed to only copy a subset of the uart_port
      fields, and sadly the "type" and "line" fields were forgotten and thus
      the serial port was not initialized and could not be used for a
      handover.  This patch fixes this by copying the missing fields.
      
      As this change to early_serial_setup() doesn't need an initialized
      spinlock in the uart_port struct any longer, we can drop the spinlock
      initialization in the superio driver.

      Impact: reduce scope of debug check - avoid warnings
      
      The logic to find whether identity map exists or not using
      high_memory or max_low_pfn_mapped/max_pfn_mapped are not complete
      as the memory withing the range may not be mapped if there is a
      unusable hole in e820.
      
      Specifically, on my test system I started seeing these warnings with
      tools like hwinfo, acpidump trying to map ACPI region.

      We can add logic to check for this. But, there can also be other holes in
      identity map when we have 1GB of aligned reserved space in e820.
      
      This patch handles it by removing the WARN_ON and returning a specific
      error value (EFAULT) to indicate that the address does not have any
      identity mapping.
      
      The code that tries to keep identity map in sync can ignore
      this error, with other callers of cpa still getting error here.

      x86 PAT: return compatible mapping to remap_pfn_range callers · cdecff68
      venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com authored
      Impact: avoid warning message, potentially solve 3D performance regression
      
      Change x86 PAT code to return compatible memtype if the exact memtype that
      was requested in remap_pfn_rage and friends is not available due to some
      conflict.
      
      This is done by returning the compatible type in pgprot parameter of
      track_pfn_vma_new(), and the caller uses that memtype for page table.
      
      Note that track_pfn_vma_copy() which is basically called during fork gets the
      prot from existing page table and should not have any conflict. Hence we use
      strict memtype check there and do not allow compatible memtypes.
      
      This patch fixes the bug reported here:
      
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123108883716357&w=2
      
      Specifically the error message:
      
        X:5010 map pfn expected mapping type write-back for d0000000-d0101000,
        got write-combining
      
      Should go away.

      Impact: cleanup
      
      Change the protection parameter for track_pfn_vma_new() into a pgprot_t pointer.
      Subsequent patch changes the x86 PAT handling to return a compatible
      memtype in pgprot_t, if what was requested cannot be allowed due to conflicts.
      No fuctionality change in this patch.

      Move the new memtype old memtype allowed check to header so that is can be

      x86 PAT: remove PFNMAP type on track_pfn_vma_new() error · a3670613
      venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com authored
      Impact: fix (harmless) double-free of memtype entries and avoid warning
      
      On track_pfn_vma_new() failure, reset the vm_flags so that there will be
      no second cleanup happening when upper level routines call unmap_vmas().
      
      This patch fixes part of the bug reported here:
      
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123108883716357&w=2

        X:5010 freeing invalid memtype d0000000-d0101000
      
      Is due to multiple frees on error path, will not happen with the patch below.

      x86, generic: mark complex bitops.h inlines as __always_inline · c8399943
      Andi Kleen authored
      Impact: reduce kernel image size
      
      Hugh Dickins noticed that older gcc versions when the kernel
      is built for code size didn't inline some of the bitops.
      
      Mark all complex x86 bitops that have more than a single
      asm statement or two as always inline to avoid this problem.
      
      Probably should be done for other architectures too.
      
      Ingo then found a better fix that only requires
      a single line change, but it unfortunately only
      works on gcc 4.3.
      
      On older gccs the original patch still makes a ~0.3% defconfig
      difference with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y.
      
      With gcc 4.1 and a defconfig like build:
      
          6116998 1138540  883788 8139326  7c323e vmlinux-oi-with-patch
          6137043 1138540  883788 8159371  7c808b vmlinux-optimize-inlining
      
      ~20k / 0.3% difference.
