44581a28e8 x86: fix abuse of per_cpu_offset
Impact: bug fix

Don't use per_cpu_offset() to determine if it valid to access a
per-cpu variable for a given cpu number.  It is not a valid assumption
on x86-64 anymore. Use cpu_possible() instead.

2add8e235c x86: use linker to offset symbols by __per_cpu_load
Impact: cleanup and bug fix

Use the linker to create symbols for certain per-cpu variables
that are offset by __per_cpu_load.  This allows the removal of
the runtime fixup of the GDT pointer, which fixes a bug with
resume reported by Jiri Slaby.

c09249f8d1 x86-64: fix int $0x80 -ENOSYS return
One of my past fixes to this code introduced a different new bug.
When using 32-bit "int $0x80" entry for a bogus syscall number,
the return value is not correctly set to -ENOSYS.  This only happens
when neither syscall-audit nor syscall tracing is enabled (i.e., never
seen if auditd ever started).  Test program:

	/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c
	   Run on x86-64 kernel.
	   Note to reproduce the bug you need auditd never to have started.  */

	#include <errno.h>
	#include <stdio.h>

	int
	main (void)
	{
	  long res;
	  asm ("int $0x80" : "=a" (res) : "0" (99999));
	  printf ("bad syscall returns %ld\n", res);
	  return res != -ENOSYS;
	}

The fix makes the int $0x80 path match the sysenter and syscall paths.

5393744b71 xen: make direct versions of irq_enable/disable/save/restore to common code
Now that x86-64 has directly accessible percpu variables, it can also
implement the direct versions of these operations, which operate on a
vcpu_info structure directly embedded in the percpu area.

In fact, the 64-bit versions are more or less identical, and so can be
shared.  The only two differences are:
 1. xen_restore_fl_direct takes its argument in eax on 32-bit, and rdi on 64-bit.
    Unfortunately it isn't possible to directly refer to the 2nd lsb of rdi directly
    (as you can with %ah), so the code isn't quite as dense.
 2. check_events needs to variants to save different registers.

	ACPI MP table (MADT)

Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with
missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process
due to the APIC not being initialized. Fix that by falling back to the
default APIC base address in 32bit code, as it is done in the 64bit

06fc732c33 xen: disable interrupts before saving in percpu
Impact: Fix race condition

xen_mc_batch has a small preempt race where it takes the address of a
percpu variable immediately before disabling interrupts, thereby
leaving a small window in which we may migrate to another cpu and save
the flags in the wrong percpu variable.  Disable interrupts before
saving the old flags in a percpu.

[
  mingo@elte.hu: these fixes are a subset of changes cherry-picked from:

     git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/voyager-2.6.git

  They fix various problems that recent x86 changes caused in the Voyager
  subarchitecture: both APIC changes and cpumask changes and certain
  cleanups caused subarch assumptions to break.

  Most of these changes are obsolete as the subarch code has been removed
  from the x86 development tree - but we merge them upstream to make Voyager
  build and boot.

11e3a840cd x86: split loading percpu segments from loading gdt
Impact: split out a function, no functional change

Xen needs to be able to access percpu data from very early on.  For
various reasons, it cannot also load the gdt at that time.   It does,
however, have a pefectly functional gdt at that point, so there's no
pressing need to reload the gdt.

Split the function to load the segment registers off, so Xen can call
it directly.

da5de7c22e x86/paravirt: use callee-saved convention for pte_val/make_pte/etc
Impact: Optimization

In the native case, pte_val, make_pte, etc are all just identity
functions, so there's no need to clobber a lot of registers over them.

(This changes the 32-bit callee-save calling convention to return both
EAX and EDX so functions can return 64-bit values.)

791bad9d28 x86/paravirt: implement PVOP_CALL macros for callee-save functions
Impact: Optimization

Functions with the callee save calling convention clobber many fewer
registers than the normal C calling convention.  Implement variants of
PVOP_V?CALL* accordingly.  This only bothers with functions up to 3
args, since functions with more args may as well use the normal
calling convention.

ecb93d1ccd x86/paravirt: add register-saving thunks to reduce caller register pressure
Impact: Optimization

One of the problems with inserting a pile of C calls where previously
there were none is that the register pressure is greatly increased.
The C calling convention says that the caller must expect a certain
set of registers may be trashed by the callee, and that the callee can
use those registers without restriction.  This includes the function
argument registers, and several others.

This patch seeks to alleviate this pressure by introducing wrapper
thunks that will do the register saving/restoring, so that the
callsite doesn't need to worry about it, but the callee function can
be conventional compiler-generated code.  In many cases (particularly
performance-sensitive cases) the callee will be in assembler anyway,
and need not use the compiler's calling convention.

Standard calling convention is:
	 arguments	    return	scratch
x86-32	 eax edx ecx	    eax		?
x86-64	 rdi rsi rdx rcx    rax		r8 r9 r10 r11

The thunk preserves all argument and scratch registers.  The return
register is not preserved, and is available as a scratch register for
unwrapped callee code (and of course the return value).

Wrapped function pointers are themselves wrapped in a struct
paravirt_callee_save structure, in order to get some warning from the
compiler when functions with mismatched calling conventions are used.

The most common paravirt ops, both statically and dynamically, are
interrupt enable/disable/save/restore, so handle them first.  This is
particularly easy since their calls are handled specially anyway.

XXX Deal with VMI.  What's their calling convention?

41edafdb78 x86/pvops: add a paravirt_ident functions to allow special patching
Impact: Optimization

Several paravirt ops implementations simply return their arguments,
the most obvious being the make_pte/pte_val class of operations on
native.

On 32-bit, the identity function is literally a no-op, as the calling
convention uses the same registers for the first argument and return.
On 64-bit, it can be implemented with a single "mov".

This patch adds special identity functions for 32 and 64 bit argument,
and machinery to recognize them and replace them with either nops or a
mov as appropriate.

At the moment, the only users for the identity functions are the
pagetable entry conversion functions.

The result is a measureable improvement on pagetable-heavy benchmarks
(2-3%, reducing the pvops overhead from 5 to 2%).
