After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device
semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from
concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be
too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but
before it happened, we had introduced the functions
device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow
drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some
drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary,
it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the
normal device unregistration instead.

Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
structure.
What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table? It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target. Currently the iSCSI
information is hard-coded in the initrd. The /sysfs entries are read-only
one-name-and-value fields.
The usual set of data exposed is:
# for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do echo -n "$a: "; cat $a; done

* Here is a simple patch to use an allocated array of cpumasks to
represent cpumask_of_cpu() instead of constructing one on the stack.
It's based on the Kconfig option "HAVE_CPUMASK_OF_CPU_MAP" which is
currently only set for x86_64 SMP. Otherwise the the existing
cpumask_of_cpu() is used but has been changed to produce an lvalue
so a pointer to it can be used.

Split the FPU save area from the task struct. This allows easy migration
of FPU context, and it's generally cleaner. It also allows the following
two optimizations:
1) only allocate when the application actually uses FPU, so in the first
lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. Next patch
does this lazy allocation.
2) allocate the right size for the actual cpu rather than 512 bytes always.
Patches enabling xsave/xrstor support (coming shortly) will take advantage
of this.

We already catch most of the TSC problems by sanity checks, but there
is a subtle bug which has been in the code forever. This can cause
time jumps in the range of hours.
This was reported in:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/23/96
and
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/31/23
I was able to reproduce the problem with a gettimeofday loop test on a
dual core and a quad core machine which both have sychronized
TSCs. The TSCs seems not to be perfectly in sync though, but the
kernel is not able to detect the slight delta in the sync check. Still
there exists an extremly small window where this delta can be observed
with a real big time jump. So far I was only able to reproduce this
with the vsyscall gettimeofday implementation, but in theory this
might be observable with the syscall based version as well.
CPU 0 updates the clock source variables under xtime/vyscall lock and
CPU1, where the TSC is slighty behind CPU0, is reading the time right
after the seqlock was unlocked.
The clocksource reference data was updated with the TSC from CPU0 and
the value which is read from TSC on CPU1 is less than the reference
data. This results in a huge delta value due to the unsigned
subtraction of the TSC value and the reference value. This algorithm
can not be changed due to the support of wrapping clock sources like
pm timer.
The huge delta is converted to nanoseconds and added to xtime, which
is then observable by the caller. The next gettimeofday call on CPU1
will show the correct time again as now the TSC has advanced above the
reference value.
To prevent this TSC specific wreckage we need to compare the TSC value
against the reference value and return the latter when it is larger
than the actual TSC value.
I pondered to mark the TSC unstable when the readout is smaller than
the reference value, but this would render an otherwise good and fast
clocksource unusable without a real good reason.

This patch implements the PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC prctl()
commands on the x86 platform (both 32 and 64 bit.) These
commands control the ability to read the timestamp counter
from userspace (the RDTSC instruction.)
While the RDTSC instuction is a useful profiling tool,
it is also the source of some non-determinism in ring-3.
For deterministic replay applications it is useful to be
able to trap and emulate (and record the outcome of) this
instruction.
This patch uses code earlier used to disable the timestamp
counter for the SECCOMP framework. A side-effect of this
patch is that the SECCOMP environment will now also disable
the timestamp counter on x86_64 due to the addition of the
TIF_NOTSC define on this platform.
The code which enables/disables the RDTSC instruction during
context switches is in the __switch_to_xtra function, which
already handles other unusual conditions, so normal
performance should not have to suffer from this change.

Add HW breakpoints into the arch specific portion of x86 kgdb. In the
current x86 kernel.org kernels HW breakpoints are changed out in lazy
fashion because there is no infrastructure around changing them when
changing to a kernel task or entering the kernel mode via a system
call. This lazy approach means that if a user process uses HW
breakpoints the kgdb will loose out. This is an acceptable trade off
because the developer debugging the kernel is assumed to know what is
going on system wide and would be aware of this trade off.
There is a minor bug fix to the kgdb core so as to correctly call the
hw breakpoint functions with a valid value from the enum.
There is also a minor change to the x86_64 startup code when using
early HW breakpoints. When the debugger is connected, the cpu startup
code must not zero out the HW breakpoint registers or you cannot hit
the breakpoints you are interested in, in the first place.

The shutdown status flag set to "0xA", corresponds to "JMP double word
request without INT init".
This JMP at reboot time is at an unintended location. And results in
Triple faults in our case.
Though this error at reboot can be safely ignored in a VM environment,
am not sure what the effect would be on a physical system. May be it
will result in a triple fault and an eventual hardware reset thus
masking this BUG in the kernel.
This fix just makes sure that we reset that status flag after

UV supports really big systems. So big, in fact, that the APICID register
does not contain enough bits to contain an APICID that is unique across all
cpus.
The UV BIOS supports 3 APICID modes:
- legacy mode. This mode uses the old APIC mode where
APICID is in bits [31:24] of the APICID register.
- x2apic mode. This mode is whitebox-compatible. APICIDs
are unique across all cpus. Standard x2apic APIC operations
(Intel-defined) can be used for IPIs. The node identifier
fits within the Intel-defined portion of the APICID register.
- x2apic-uv mode. In this mode, the APICIDs on each node have
unique IDs, but IDs on different node are not unique. For example,
if each mode has 32 cpus, the APICIDs on each node might be
0 - 31. Every node has the same set of IDs.
The UV hub is used to route IPIs/interrupts to the correct node.
Traditional APIC operations WILL NOT WORK.
In x2apic-uv mode, the ACPI tables all contain a full unique ID (note:
exact bit layout still changing but the following is close):
nnnnnnnnnnlc0cch
n = unique node number
l = socket number on board
c = core
h = hyperthread
Only the "lc0cch" bits are written to the APICID register. The remaining bits are
supplied by having the get_apic_id() function "OR" the extra bits into the value
read from the APICID register. (Hmmm.. why not keep the ENTIRE APICID register
in per-cpu data....)
The x2apic-uv mode is recognized by the MADT table containing:
oem_id = "SGI"
oem_table_id = "UV-X"

On AMD SMM protected memory is part of the address map, but handled
internally like an MTRR. That leads to large pages getting split
internally which has some performance implications. Check for the
AMD TSEG MSR and split the large page mapping on that area
explicitely if it is part of the direct mapping.
There is also SMM ASEG, but it is in the first 1MB and already covered by
the earlier split first page patch.
Idea for this came from an earlier patch by Andreas Herrmann
On a RevF dual Socket Opteron system kernbench shows a clear
improvement from this:
(together with the earlier patches in this series, especially the
split first 2MB patch)
[lower is better]
no split stddev split stddev delta
Elapsed Time 87.146 (0.727516) 84.296 (1.09098) -3.2%
User Time 274.537 (4.05226) 273.692 (3.34344) -0.3%
System Time 34.907 (0.42492) 34.508 (0.26832) -1.1%
Percent CPU 322.5 (38.3007) 326.5 (44.5128) +1.2%
=> About 3.2% improvement in elapsed time for kernbench.
With GB pages on AMD Fam1h the impact of splitting is much higher of course,
since it would split two full GB pages (together with the first
1MB split patch) instead of two 2MB pages. I could not benchmark
a clear difference in kernbench on gbpages, so I kept it disabled
for that case
That was only limited benchmarking of course, so if someone
was interested in running more tests for the gbpages case
that could be revisited (contributions welcome)
I didn't bother implementing this for 32bit because it is very
unlikely the 32bit lowmem mapping overlaps into the TSEG near 4GB
and the 2MB low split is already handled for both.
[ mingo@elte.hu: do it on gbpages kernels too, there's no clear reason
why it shouldnt help there. ]

Intel recommends to not use large pages for the first 1MB
of the physical memory because there are fixed size MTRRs there
which cause splitups in the TLBs.
On AMD doing so is also a good idea.
The implementation is a little different between 32bit and 64bit.
On 32bit I just taught the initial page table set up about this
because it was very simple to do. This also has the advantage
that the risk of a prefetch ever seeing the page even
if it only exists for a short time is minimized.
On 64bit that is not quite possible, so use set_memory_4k() a little
later (in check_bugs) instead.

Yes, but in the meantime, the x86 tree would need this patch to make
kprobes work correctly on modules.
I suspect that without this fix, with the enhanced hotplug and kprobes
patch, kprobes will use text_poke to insert breakpoints in modules
(vmalloced pages used), which will map the wrong pages and corrupt
random kernel locations instead of updating the correct page.
Work that would write protect the module pages should clearly be done,
but it can come in a later time. We have to make sure we interact
correctly with the page allocation debugging, as an example.
Here is the patch against x86.git 2.6.25-rc5 :
The shadow vmap for DEBUG_RODATA kernel text modification uses virt_to_page to
get the pages from the pointer address.
However, I think vmalloc_to_page would be required in case the page is used for
modules.
Since only the core kernel text is marked read-only, use kernel_text_address()
to make sure we only shadow map the core kernel text, not modules.

reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free

not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result
of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT.
pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr
are same.

Initializing to zero is generally bad idea, I hope it is right for
__init data, too.

do simple memtest after init_memory_mapping
use find_e820_area_size to find all ram range that is not reserved.
and do some simple bits test to find some bad ram.
if find some bad ram, use reserve_early to exclude that range.

I was trying to get the address of instruction to be executed
next after the kprobed instruction. But regs->eip in post_handler()
contains value which is useless to the user. It's pre-corrected value.
This value is difficult to use without access to resume_execution(), which
is not exported anyway.
I moved the invocation of post_handler() to *after* resume_execution().
Now regs->eip contains meaningful value in post_handler().
I do not think this change breaks any backward-compatibility.
To make meaning of the old value, post_handler() would need access to
resume_execution() which is not exported. I have difficulty to believe
that previous, uncorrected, regs->eip can be meaningfully used in
post_handler().

When we're stopped at syscall entry tracing, ptrace can change the %rax
value from -ENOSYS to something else. If no system call is actually made
because the syscall number (now in orig_rax) is bad, then we now always
reset %rax to -ENOSYS again.
This changes it to leave the return value alone after entry tracing.
That way, the %rax value set by ptrace is there to be seen in user mode
(or in syscall exit tracing). This is consistent with what the 32-bit
kernel does.
