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.

4dbf7af644 x86: adjust/fix LDT handling for Xen
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.

466eed22d1 x86: isolate PIC/PIT in/out calls
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.

fb8830e72d x86: fix singlestep handling in reenter_kprobe
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.

0723a69a63 x86: fix synchronize_rcu(): high latency on idle system
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.

is_prefetch was the last user of get_segment_eip and only on
X86_32.  This function returned the faulting instruction's

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.

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.

Change the size of APICIDs from u8 to u16.  This partially

Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com>

I've included just the partial change from u8 to u16 apicids.  The
remaining x2apic changes will be in a separate patch.

In addition, the fake_node_to_pxm_map[] and fake_apicid_to_node[]
tables have been moved from local data to the __initdata section
reducing stack pressure when MAX_NUMNODES and MAX_LOCAL_APIC are
increased in size.

aafbd7eb20 x86: make printk_address regs->ip always reliable
printk_address()'s second parameter is the reliability indication,
not the ebp. If we're printing regs->ip we're reliable by definition,
so pass a 1 here.

a25bd94964 x86: add the "print code before the trapping instruction" feature to 64 bit
The 32 bit x86 tree has a very useful feature that prints the Code: line
for the code even before the trapping instrution (and the start of the
trapping instruction is then denoted with a <>). Unfortunately, the 64 bit
x86 tree does not yet have this feature, making diagnosing backtraces harder
than needed.

This patch adds this feature in the same was as the 32 bit tree has
(including the same kernel boot parameter), and including a bugfix
to make the code use probe_kernel_address() rarther than a buggy (deadlocking)
__get_user.

6dab27784b x86: add a simple backtrace test module
During the work on the x86 32 and 64 bit backtrace code I found it useful
to have a simple test module to test a process and irq context backtrace.
Since the existing backtrace code was buggy, I figure it might be useful
to have such a test module in the kernel so that maybe we can even
detect such bugs earlier..

80b51f310b x86: use the stack frames to get exact stack-traces for CONFIG_FRAMEPOINTER on x86-64
x86 32 bit already has this feature: This patch uses the stack frames with
frame pointer into an exact stack trace, by following the frame pointer.
This only affects kernels built with the CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER config option
enabled, and greatly reduces the amount of noise in oopses.

This code uses the traditional method of doing backtraces, but if it
finds a valid frame pointer chain, will use that to show which parts
of the backtrace are reliable and which parts are not

Due to the fragility and importance of the backtrace code, this needs to
be well reviewed and well tested before merging into mainlne.

e4a94568b1 x86: turn 64 bit x86 HANDLE_STACK into print_context_stack like 32 bit has
This patch turns the x86 64 bit HANDLE_STACK macro in the backtrace code
into a function, just like 32 bit has. This is needed pre work in order to
get exact backtraces for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER to work.

The function and it's arguments are not the same as 32 bit; due to the
exception/interrupt stack way of x86-64 there are a few differences.

This patch should not have any behavior changes, only code movement.

Due to the fragility and importance of the backtrace code, this needs to be
well reviewed and well tested before merging into mainlne.

5bc27dc2f5 x86: pull bp calculation earlier into the backtrace path
Right now, we take the stack pointer early during the backtrace path, but
only calculate bp several functions deep later, making it hard to reconcile
the stack and bp backtraces (as well as showing several internal backtrace
functions on the stack with bp based backtracing).

This patch moves the bp taking to the same place we take the stack pointer;
sadly this ripples through several layers of the back tracing stack,
but it's not all that bad in the end I hope.

e9d4efddbe x86: improve the 32 bit Frame Pointer backtracer to also use the traditional backtrace
The 32 bit Frame Pointer backtracer code checks if the EBP is valid
to do a backtrace; however currently on a failure it just gives up
and prints nothing. That's not very nice; we can do better and still
print a decent backtrace.

This patch changes the backtracer to use the regular backtracing algorithm
at the same time as the EBP backtracer; the EBP backtracer is basically
used to figure out which part of the backtrace are reliable vs those
which are likely to be noise.

bc850d6b37 x86: add the capability to print fuzzy backtraces
For enhancing the 32 bit EBP based backtracer, I need the capability
for the backtracer to tell it's customer that an entry is either
reliable or unreliable, and the backtrace printing code then needs to
print the unreliable ones slightly different.

This patch adds the basic capability, the next patch will add a user
of this capability.

3d1f7cae88 x86: fix 32-bit FRAME_POINTER chasing code
The current x86 32 bit FRAME_POINTER chasing code has a nasty bug in
that the EBP tracer doesn't actually update the value of EBP it is
tracing, so that the code doesn't actually switch to the irq stack
properly.

The result is a truncated backtrace:

This patch fixes the code to update EBP properly, and to check the EIP
before printing (as the non-framepointer backtracer does) so that
the same test backtrace now looks like this:

This shows that the backtrace goes all the way down to user context now.
