Calling a notifier three times in the debug handler does not make much sense, because a debugger can figure out the various conditions by itself. Remove the additional calls to DIE_DEBUG and DIE_DEBUGSTEP completely. This matches what i386 does now. This also makes sure interrupts are always still disabled when calling a debugger, which prevents: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000001] code: tpopf/1470 caller is post_kprobe_handler+0x9/0x70 Call Trace:<ffffffff8024f10f>{smp_processor_id+191} <ffffffff80120e69>{post_kpro be_handler+9} <ffffffff80120f7a>{kprobe_exceptions_notify+58} <ffffffff80144fc0>{notifier_call_chain+32} <ffffffff80110daf>{do_debug+335} <ffffffff8010f513>{debug+127} <EOE> on preemptible debug kernels with kprobes when single stepping in user space. This was probably a bug even on non preempt kernels, this function was supposed to be running with interrupts off according to a comment there. Note to third part debugger maintainers: please double check your debugger can still single step.

Look for gaps in the e820 memory map to put PCI resources in. This hopefully fixes problems with the PCI code assigning 32bit BARs MMIO resources which are >32bit. Signed-off-by:

They are rumoured to be much more reliable than the RIP in the stack frame on P4s. This is a borderline case because the code is very simple. Please note there are no plans to add support for all the MCE register MSRs. Cc: <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Cc: <racing.guo@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

Could lead to a lost reschedule event when the process already rescheduled on exception exit, and needs it again while still being in the kernel. Unlikely case though. Also remove one redundant cli in another entry.S path. Signed-off-by:

This fixes various issues in the return path for "paranoid" handlers (= running on a private exception stack that act like NMIs). Generalize previous hack to switch back to process stack for scheduling/signal handling purposes. Signed-off-by:

This removes some unnecessary code in the assembly files. Matches i386 behaviour. In addition don't clear the work check mask after work has been done. This fixes some theoretical signal/other event losses. Signed-off-by:

Ported from i386 (originally from Linus) clean up ptrace single-stepping, make PT_DTRACE exact. (This makes the naming of "DTRACE" purely historical, since on x86 it now means "single step in progress"). Signed-off-by:

x86_64 genapic mechanism should be aware of machines that use physical APIC mode regardless of how many clusters/processors are detected. ACPI 3.0 FADT makes this determination very simple by providing a feature flag "force_apic_physical_destination_mode" to state whether the machine unconditionally uses physical APIC mode. Unisys' next generation x86_64 ES7000 will need to utilize this FADT feature flag in order to boot the x86_64 kernel in the correct APIC mode. This patch has been tested on both x86_64 commodity and ES7000 boxes. Signed-off-by:

Only display physical id/siblings when there are siblings or dual core. In 2.6.11 I accidentially broke it and it was always displaying these fields But for compatibility to all these /proc parsers around it is better to do it in the old way again.

This moves the macro loaddebug from asm-i386/suspend.h to asm-i386/processor.h, which is the place that makes sense for it to be defined, removes the extra copy of the same macro in arch/i386/kernel/process.c, and makes arch/i386/kernel/signal.c use the macro in place of its expansion. This is a purely cosmetic cleanup for the normal i386 kernel. However, it is handy for Xen to be able to just redefine the loaddebug macro once instead of also changing the signal.c code.
