63516ef6d6 x86: fix get_mtrr() warning about smp_processor_id() with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
Impact: fix debug warning

Jaswinder noticed that there is a warning about smp_processor_id()
in get_mtrr().

Fix it by wrapping the printout into a get/put_cpu() pair.

3ff42da504 x86: mtrr: don't modify RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed MTRRs
Impact: bug fix + BIOS workaround

BIOS is expected to clear the SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on AMD CPUs
after fixed MTRRs are configured.

Some BIOSes do not clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on BP (and on APs).

This can lead to obfuscation in Linux when this bit is not cleared on
BP but cleared on APs. A consequence of this is that the saved
fixed-MTRR state (from BP) differs from the fixed-MTRRs of APs --
because RdDram/WrDram bits are read as zero when
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] is cleared -- and Linux tries to sync
fixed-MTRR state from BP to AP. This implies that Linux sets
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and activates those bits.

More important is that (some) systems change these bits in SMM when
ACPI is enabled. Hence it is racy if Linux modifies RdMem/WrMem bits,
too.

(1) The patch modifies an old fix from Bernhard Kaindl to get
    suspend/resume working on some Acer Laptops. Bernhard's patch
    tried to sync RdMem/WrMem bits of fixed MTRR registers and that
    helped on those old Laptops. (Don't ask me why -- can't test it
    myself). But this old problem was not the motivation for the
    patch. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/3/110)

(2) The more important effect is to fix issues on some more current systems.

    On those systems Linux panics or just freezes, see

    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541
    (and also duplicates of this bug:
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11737
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11714)

    The affected systems boot only using acpi=ht, acpi=off or
    when the kernel is built with CONFIG_MTRR=n.

    The acpi options prevent full enablement of ACPI.  Obviously when
    ACPI is enabled the BIOS/SMM modfies RdMem/WrMem bits.  When
    CONFIG_MTRR=y Linux also accesses and modifies those bits when it
    needs to sync fixed-MTRRs across cores (Bernhard's fix, see (1)).
    How do you synchronize that? You can't. As a consequence Linux
    shouldn't touch those bits at all (Rationale are AMD's BKDGs which
    recommend to clear the bit that makes RdMem/WrMem accessible).
    This is the purpose of this patch. And (so far) this suffices to
    fix (1) and (2).

I suggest not to touch RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed-MTRRs and
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and to clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] as
suggested by AMD K8, and AMD family 10h/11h BKDGs.
BIOS is expected to do this anyway. This should avoid that
Linux and SMM tread on each other's toes ...

 (It will only printout one time by first cpu, so it is no big deal.)

- Also print out directly from get_mtrr, because it doesn't update mtrr_state.

5e47c478b0 x86: remove zImage support
Impact: obsolete feature removal

The zImage kernel format has been functionally unused for a very long
time.  It is just barely possible to build a modern kernel that still
fits within the zImage size limit, but it is highly unlikely that
anyone ever uses it.  Furthermore, although it is still supported by
most bootloaders, it has been at best poorly tested (or not tested at
all); some bootloaders are even known to not support zImage at all and
not having even noticed.

Also remove some really obsolete constants that no longer have any
meaning.

129f8ae9b1 Revert "[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod."
This reverts commit e088e4c9cd.

Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a
regression in bug 12826.

Course of action:
 - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them
   if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically.
   If it isn't, we need to fix that.
 - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated
 - try again with the removal in six months.

It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because
it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding
a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no
kmalloc available).

So do it as we use interrupts instead.  Also means we only alloc for
irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

cbd88c8e6f lguest: fix crash 'unhandled trap 13 at <native_read_msr_safe>'
Impact: fix lguest boot crash on modern Intel machines

The code in early_init_intel does:

		u64 misc_enable;

		rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE, misc_enable);

And that rdmsr faults (not allowed from non-0 PL).  We can get around
this by mugging the family ID part of the cpuid.  5 seems like a good
number.

Of course, this is a hack (how very lguest!).  We could just indicate
that we don't support MSRs, or implement lguest_rdmst.

Impact: fix race+crash in mmiotrace

The list manipulation in remove_kmmio_fault_pages() was broken. If more
than one consecutive kmmio_fault_page was re-added during the grace
period between unregister_kmmio_probe() and remove_kmmio_fault_pages(),
the list manipulation failed to remove pages from the release list.

After a second grace period the pages get into rcu_free_kmmio_fault_pages()
and raise a BUG_ON() kernel crash.

The list manipulation is fixed to properly remove pages from the release
list.

This bug has been present from the very beginning of mmiotrace in the
mainline kernel. It was introduced in 0fd0e3da ("x86: mmiotrace full
patch, preview 1");

Impact: improve out-of-range fixmap index debugging

Commit "1b42f51630c7eebce6fb780b480731eb81afd325"
defined the __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() function
with a WARN_ON(1) in it.

This causes the linker to not report an error when
__this_fixmap_does_not_exist() is called with a
non-constant parameter.

Ingo defined __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() because he
wanted to get virt addresses of fix memory of nest level
by non-constant index.

But we can fix this and still keep the link-time check:

We can get the four slot virt addresses on link time and
store them to array slot_virt[].

Then we can then refer the slot_virt with non-constant index,
in the ioremap-leak detection code.

Oleg Nesterov submitted patches that move ptrace_exit() before
exit_thread() and thus reverse the order of the above calls.

Remove the bad warning. I will add it again when Oleg's changes are in.

6b19b0c240 x86, percpu: setup reserved percpu area for x86_64
Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load

x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu
symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the
first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the
first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.

This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.

This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate.  New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.

x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.

Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the
embedding percpu allocator commit.

edcb463997 percpu, module: implement reserved allocation and use it for module percpu variables
Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
	percpu variables

This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk.  When
setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
through a separate reserved allocator.  This will be used primarily
for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
the relocatable range.

If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
isn't available for regular allocation.  If the first chunk also
includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation.  The first one
is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
Although they share the page map, their different area map
initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
purposes.

If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
like any other allocation.

9a4f8a878b x86: make embedding percpu allocator return excessive free space
Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations

Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size *
smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first
chunk.  However, if the static area is small, this can result in
excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction.

This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's
necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the
leftover to the bootmem allocator.

cafe8816b2 percpu: use negative for auto for pcpu_setup_first_chunk() arguments
Impact: argument semantic cleanup

In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant
auto-sizing.  It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0
dynamic reserve size is valid.  Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.

This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
auto sizing.
