2010-01-13x86: xen: 64-bit kernel RPL should be 0Ian Campbell1-0/+4
Under Xen 64 bit guests actually run their kernel in ring 3, however the hypervisor takes care of squashing descriptor the RPLs transparently (in order to allow them to continue to differentiate between user and kernel space CS using the RPL). Therefore the Xen paravirt backend should use RPL==0 instead of 1 (or 3). Using RPL==1 causes generic arch code to take incorrect code paths because it uses "testl $3, <CS>, je foo" type tests for a userspace CS and this considers 1==userspace. This issue was previously masked because get_kernel_rpl() was omitted when setting CS in kernel_thread(). This was fixed when kernel_thread() was unified with 32 bit in f443ff4201dd25cd4dec183f9919ecba90c8edc2.

Before the kernel_thread was converted into "C" we had pt_regs::ss set to __KERNEL_DS (by SAVE_ALL asm macro). Though I must admit I didn't find any *explicit* load of %ss from this structure the better to be on a safe side and set it to a known value.

2010-01-13x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanupFUJITA Tomonori1-0/+1
This fixes the regression introduced by the commit f405d2c02395a74d3883bd03ded36457aa3697ad. The above commit fixes the following issue: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2 However, it doesn't work properly when you remove and insert the agp_amd64 module again. agp_amd64_init() and agp_amd64_cleanup should be called only when gart_iommu is not called earlier (that is, the GART IOMMU is not enabled). We need to use 'gart_iommu_aperture' to see if GART IOMMU is enabled or not.

2010-01-13perf: Stop stack frame walking off kernel addresses boundariesFrederic Weisbecker1-6/+8
While processing kernel perf callchains, an bad entry can be considered as a valid stack pointer but not as a kernel address. In this case, we hang in an endless loop. This can happen in an x86-32 kernel after processing the last entry in a kernel stacktrace. Just stop the stack frame walking after we encounter an invalid kernel address. This fixes a hard lockup in x86-32.

Revert commit 2fbd07a5f5d1295fa9b0c0564ec27da7c276a75a, as this commit breaks an IBM platform with quad-core Xeon cpu's. According to Suresh, this might be an IBM platform issue, as on other Intel platforms with <= 8 logical cpu's, logical flat mode works fine irespective of physical apic id values (inline with the xapic architecture). Revert this for now because of the IBM platform breakage. Another version will be re-submitted after the complete analysis.

2010-01-11core, x86: make LIST_POISON less deadlyAvi Kivity1-0/+5
The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable, potentially turning an oops to an expolit. To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values. This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains areas that cannot be mapped. Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.

2010-01-06x86, irq: Check move_in_progress before freeing the vector mappingSuresh Siddha1-0/+7
With the recent irq migration fixes (post 2.6.32), Gary Hade has noticed "No IRQ handler for vector" messages during the 2.6.33-rc1 kernel boot on IBM AMD platforms and root caused the issue to this commit: > commit 23359a88e7eca3c4f402562b102f23014db3c2aa > Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> > Date: Mon Oct 26 14:24:33 2009 -0800 > > x86: Remove move_cleanup_count from irq_cfg As part of this patch, we have removed the move_cleanup_count check in smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt(). With this change, we can run into a situation where an irq cleanup interrupt on a cpu can cleanup the vector mappings associated with multiple irqs, of which one of the irq's migration might be still in progress. As such when that irq hits the old cpu, we get the "No IRQ handler" messages. Fix this by checking for the irq_cfg's move_in_progress and if the move is still in progress delay the vector cleanup to another irq cleanup interrupt request (which will happen when the irq starts arriving at the new cpu destination).

2009-12-31perf: Pass appropriate frame pointer to dump_trace()Frederic Weisbecker1-1/+1
Pass the frame pointer from the regs of the interrupted path to dump_trace() while processing the stack trace. Currently, dump_trace() takes the current bp and starts the callchain from dump_trace() itself. This is wasteful because we need to walk through the entire NMI/DEBUG stack before retrieving the interrupted point. We can fix that by just using the frame pointer from the captured regs. It points exactly where we want to start.

The invlpg prefault optimization breaks Windows 2008 R2 occasionally. The visible effect is that the invlpg handler instantiates a pte which is, microseconds later, written with a different gfn by another vcpu. The OS could have other mechanisms to prevent a present translation from being used, which the hypervisor is unaware of. While the documentation states that the cpu is at liberty to prefetch tlb entries, it looks like this is not heeded, so remove tlb prefetch from invlpg.

Recently, some distros have started shipping versions of gcc which default to -march=i686. This breaks building kernels for pre-i686 machines, even if they have been selected in Kconfig, due to the generation of CMOV instructions. There isn't enough benefit to try to preserve the generation of these instructions even when selected, so simply force -march=i386 for the decompressor when building a 32-bit kernel.

2009-12-24Revert "x86, ucode-amd: Ensure ucode update on suspend/resume after CPU ↵Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
off/online cycle" This reverts commit 9f15226e75583547aaf542c6be4bdac1060dd425. It's just wrong, and broke resume for Rafael even on a non-AMD CPU. As Rafael says: "... it causes microcode_init_cpu() to be called during resume even for CPUs for which there's no microcode to apply. That, in turn, results in executing request_firmware() (on Intel CPUs at least) which doesn't work at this stage of resume (we have device interrupts disabled, I/O devices are still suspended and so on). If I'm not mistaken, the "if (uci->valid)" logic means "if that CPU is known to us" , so before commit 9f15226e755 microcode_resume_cpu() was called for all CPUs already in the system during suspend, which was the right thing to do. The commit changed it so that the CPUs without microcode to apply are now treated as "unknown", which is not quite right. The problem this commit attempted to solve has to be handled differently."

2009-12-22arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c: avoid cross-CPU interrupts by ↵Andrew Morton1-1/+3
using smp_call_function_any() Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the mask. That's inefficient if that CPU differs from the current CPU. Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the rdmsr on the current CPU. So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).

2009-12-22ACPI: processor: finish unifying arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc()Alex Chiang2-34/+19
The only thing arch-specific about calling _PDC is what bits get set in the input obj_list buffer. There's no need for several levels of indirection to twiddle those bits. Additionally, since we're just messing around with a buffer, we can simplify the interface; no need to pass around the entire struct acpi_processor * just to get at the buffer.

The assumption that acpi_table_parse passes the return value of the hanlder function to the caller proved wrong recently. The return value of the handler function is totally ignored. This makes the initialization code for AMD IOMMU buggy in a way that could cause a kernel panic on initialization. This patch fixes the issue in the AMD IOMMU driver.

2009-12-18hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependencyFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+2
The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config dependencies. Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't ensure perf can never be disabled under us. We have: config X86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS select PERF_EVENTS config PERF_EVENTS [...] x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is necessary for the breakpoints. What we need is: - x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS - HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86. This fixes the following kind of build errors: In file included from arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:31: include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h: In function 'hw_breakpoint_addr': include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h:39: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'attr' v2: Select also ANON_INODES from x86, required for perf Reported-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Reported-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Reported-by: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrik_a@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> LKML-Reference: <1261010034-7786-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
