Thomas Gleixner 2d826404f0 x86: Move tsc_calibration to x86_init_ops
TSC calibration is modified by the vmware hypervisor and paravirt by
separate means. Moorestown wants to add its own calibration routine as
well. So make calibrate_tsc a proper x86_init_ops function and
override it by paravirt or by the early setup of the vmware
hypervisor.

Thomas Gleixner 57844a8f8e x86: Add x86_init infrastructure
The upcoming Moorestown support brings the embedded world to x86. The
setup code of x86 has already a couple of hooks which are either
x86_quirks or paravirt ops. Some of those setup hooks are pretty
convoluted like the timer setup and the tsc calibration code. But
there are other places which could do with a cleanup.

Instead of having inline functions/macros which are modified at
compile time I decided to introduce x86_init ops which are
unconditional in the code and make it clear that they can be changed
either during compile time or in the early boot process. The function
pointers are initialized by default functions which can be noops so
that the pointer can be called unconditionally in the most cases. This
also allows us to remove 32bit/64bit, paravirt and other #ifdeffery.

paravirt guests are just a hardware platform in the setup code, so we
should treat them as such and not hide all behind multiple layers of
indirection and compile time dependencies.

It's more obvious that x86_init.timers.timer_init() is a function
pointer than the late_time_init = choose_time_init() obscurity. It's
also way simpler to grep for x86_init.timers.timer_init and find all
the places which modify that function pointer instead of analyzing
weak functions, macros and paravirt indirections.

Note. This is not a general paravirt_ops replacement. It just will
move setup related hooks which are potentially useful for other
platform setup purposes as well out of the paravirt domain.

Add the base infrastructure without any functionality.

Jan Beulich c62e43202e x86: Fix build with older binutils and consolidate linker script
binutils prior to 2.17 can't deal with the currently possible
situation of a new segment following the per-CPU segment, but
that new segment being empty - objcopy misplaces the .bss (and
perhaps also the .brk) sections outside of any segment.

However, the current ordering of sections really just appears
to be the effect of cumulative unrelated changes; re-ordering
things allows to easily guarantee that the segment following
the per-CPU one is non-empty, and at once eliminates the need
for the bogus data.init2 segment.

Once touching this code, also use the various data section
helper macros from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

-v2: fix !SMP builds.

Linus Torvalds b04e6373d6 x86: don't call '->send_IPI_mask()' with an empty mask
As noted in 83d349f35e ("x86: don't send
an IPI to the empty set of CPU's"), some APIC's will be very unhappy
with an empty destination mask.  That commit added a WARN_ON() for that
case, and avoided the resulting problem, but didn't fix the underlying
reason for why those empty mask cases happened.

This fixes that, by checking the result of 'cpumask_andnot()' of the
current CPU actually has any other CPU's left in the set of CPU's to be
sent a TLB flush, and not calling down to the IPI code if the mask is
empty.

The reason this started happening at all is that we started passing just
the CPU mask pointers around in commit 4595f9620 ("x86: change
flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), and when we did that,
the cpumask was no longer thread-local.

Before that commit, flush_tlb_mm() used to create it's own copy of
'mm->cpu_vm_mask' and pass that copy down to the low-level flush
routines after having tested that it was not empty.  But after changing
it to just pass down the CPU mask pointer, the lower level TLB flush
routines would now get a pointer to that 'mm->cpu_vm_mask', and that
could still change - and become empty - after the test due to other
CPU's having flushed their own TLB's.

See

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

for details.

Linus Torvalds 83d349f35e x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU's
The default_send_IPI_mask_logical() function uses the "flat" APIC mode
to send an IPI to a set of CPU's at once, but if that set happens to be
empty, some older local APIC's will apparently be rather unhappy.  So
just warn if a caller gives us an empty mask, and ignore it.

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.x, due to commit 4595f9620 ("x86:
change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), documented
here:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

which causes a silent lock-up.  It only seems to happen on PPro, P2, P3
and Athlon XP cores.  Most developers sadly (or not so sadly, if you're
a developer..) have more modern CPU's.  Also, on x86-64 we don't use the
flat APIC mode, so it would never trigger there even if the APIC didn't
like sending an empty IPI mask.

Suresh Siddha f833bab87f clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock
Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.

This results in a deadlock in this scenario.

cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.

This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.

Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.

Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.

This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

PAT code maps the ISA memory range as WB in the PAT attribute, so that
fixed range MTRR registers define the actual memory type (UC/WC/WT etc).

But the upper level is_new_memtype_allowed() API checks are failing,
as the request here is for UC and the return tracked type is WB (Tracked type is
WB as MTRR type for this legacy range potentially will be different for each
4k page).

Fix is_new_memtype_allowed() by always succeeding the ISA address range
checks, as the null PAT (WB) and def MTRR fixed range register settings
satisfy the memory type needs of the applications that map the ISA address
range.

Ingo Molnar e412cd257e x86, mce: Don't initialize MCEs on unknown CPUs
An older test-box started hanging at the following point during
bootup:

 [    0.022996] Mount-cache hash table entries: 512
 [    0.024996] Initializing cgroup subsys debug
 [    0.025996] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuacct
 [    0.026995] Initializing cgroup subsys devices
 [    0.027995] Initializing cgroup subsys freezer
 [    0.028995] mce: CPU supports 5 MCE banks

I've bisected it down to commit 4efc0670 ("x86, mce: use 64bit
machine check code on 32bit"), which utilizes the MCE code on
32-bit systems too.

The problem is caused by this detail in my config:

  # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL is not set

This disables the quirks in mce_cpu_quirks() but still enables
MCE support - which then hangs due to the missing quirk
workaround needed on this CPU:

	if (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model < 0x1A && banks > 0)
		mce_banks[0].init = 0;

The safe solution is to not initialize MCEs if we dont know on
what CPU we are running (or if that CPU's support code got
disabled in the config).

Also be a bit more defensive on 32-bit systems: dont do a
boot-time dump of pending MCEs not just on the specific system
that we found a problem with (Pentium-M), but earlier ones as
well.

Now this problem is probably not common and disabling CPU
support is rare - but still being more defensive in something
we turned on for a wide range of CPUs is prudent.

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz c7f6fa4411 x86, mce: don't log boot MCEs on Pentium M (model == 13) CPUs
On my legacy Pentium M laptop (Acer Extensa 2900) I get bogus MCE on a cold
boot with CONFIG_X86_NEW_MCE enabled, i.e. (after decoding it with mcelog):

MCE 0
HARDWARE ERROR. This is *NOT* a software problem!
Please contact your hardware vendor
CPU 0 BANK 1 MCG status:
MCi status:
Error overflow
Uncorrected error
Error enabled
Processor context corrupt
MCA: Data CACHE Level-1 UNKNOWN Error
STATUS f200000000000195 MCGSTATUS 0

[ The other STATUS values observed: f2000000000001b5 (... UNKNOWN error)
  and f200000000000115 (... READ Error).

  To verify that this is not a CONFIG_X86_NEW_MCE bug I also modified
  the CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE code (which doesn't log any MCEs) to dump
  content of STATUS MSR before it is cleared during initialization. ]

Since the bogus MCE results in a kernel taint (which in turn disables
lockdep support) don't log boot MCEs on Pentium M (model == 13) CPUs
by default ("mce=bootlog" boot parameter can be be used to get the old
behavior).
