<id>urn:sha1:d70b3ef54ceaf1c7c92209f5a662a670d04cbed9</id>
<content type='text'>
Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
  in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
  so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
  collected into the 'x86/core' topic.

  The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
  bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
  but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
  dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
  end.

  The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
  have fewer dependencies).

  The main changes in this cycle were:

   * x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
     Gleixner)

     - This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
       interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
       domains:

          [IOAPIC domain]   -----
                                 |
          [MSI domain]      --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
                                 |   (optional)          |
          [HPET MSI domain] -----                        |
                                                         |
          [DMAR domain]     -----------------------------
                                                         |
          [Legacy domain]   -----------------------------

       This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
       the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
       can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping.  It's a clear
       separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
       constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
       and the vector management.

     - Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
       injection into guests (Feng Wu)

   * x86/asm changes:

     - Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations.  This
       is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
       code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
       Brian Gerst)

     - Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
       arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)

     - Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
       Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
       they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
       not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)

     - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/mm changes:

     - Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
       preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
       in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
       Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)

     - New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
       Write-Through cached memory mappings.  This is especially
       important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)

   * x86/ras changes:

     - Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)

       This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
       poisoned data.  That means roughly that the hardware marks data
       which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
       poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
       form of a deferred error.  It is the OS's responsibility then to
       take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
       far as possible.

     - Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
       CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
       wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)

     - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/platform changes:

     - Intel Atom SoC updates

  ... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
  shortlog and the Git log for details"

We already have fpu/types.h, move i387.h to fpu/api.h.

The file name has become a misnomer anyway: it offers generic FPU APIs,
but is not limited to i387 functionality.

<title>x86/asm/entry/irq: Simplify interrupt dispatch table (IDT) layout</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3304c9c37bef30ebd2ef71d986e6568372ce80f8</id>
<content type='text'>
Interrupt entry points are handled with the following code,
each 32-byte code block contains seven entry points:

		...
		[push][jump 22] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump 18] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump 14] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump 10] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump  6] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump  2] // 4 bytes
		[push][jump common_interrupt][padding] // 8 bytes

		[push][jump]
		[push][jump]
		[push][jump]
		[push][jump]
		[push][jump]
		[push][jump]
		[push][jump common_interrupt][padding]

		[padding_2]
	common_interrupt:

And there is a table which holds pointers to every entry point,
IOW: to every push.

In cold cache, two jumps are still costlier than one, even
though we get the benefit of them residing in the same
cacheline.

This change replaces short jumps with near ones to
'common_interrupt', and pads every push+jump pair to 8 bytes. This
way, each interrupt takes only one jump.

This change replaces ".p2align CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT" before
dispatch table with ".align 8" - we do not need anything
stronger than that.

The table of entry addresses (the interrupt[] array) is no
longer necessary, the address of entries can be easily
calculated as (irq_entries_start + i*8).

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  12546	      0	      0	  12546	   3102	entry_64.o.before
  11626	      0	      0	  11626	   2d6a	entry_64.o

The size decrease is because 1656 bytes of .init.rodata are
gone. That's initdata, though. The resident size does go up a
bit.

Run-tested (32 and 64 bits).

The last patch reduced our interrupt-suppression region to one address,
so simplify the code somewhat.

Also, remove the obsolete undefined instruction ranges and the comment
which refers to lguest_guest.S instead of head_32.S.

Denys says:
  TEST with zero will always set ZF. Thus, "jnz send_interrupts" never jumps.

We get interrupts regularly enough that this didn't cause immediate problems.

<title>x86/asm/entry: Add this_cpu_sp0() to read sp0 for the current cpu</title>

We currently store references to the top of the kernel stack in
multiple places: kernel_stack (with an offset) and
init_tss.x86_tss.sp0 (no offset).  The latter is defined by
hardware and is a clean canonical way to find the top of the
stack.  Add an accessor so we can start using it.

This needs minor paravirt tweaks.  On native, sp0 defines the
top of the kernel stack and is therefore always correct.  On Xen
and lguest, the hypervisor tracks the top of the stack, but we
want to start reading sp0 in the kernel.  Fixing this is simple:
just update our local copy of sp0 as well as the hypervisor's
copy on task switches.
