2008-08-25x86: separate generic cpu disabling code from APIC writes in cpu_disableAlex Nixon1-0/+1
It allows paravirt implementations of cpu_disable to share the cpu_disable_common code, without having to take on board APIC writes, which may not be appropriate.

2008-08-25x86: unify x86_32 and x86_64 play_dead into one functionAlex Nixon1-0/+1
Add the new play_dead into smpboot.c, as it fits more cleanly in there alongside other CONFIG_HOTPLUG functions. Separate out the common code into its own function.

2008-08-25x86_32: clean up play_deadAlex Nixon1-1/+6
The removal of the CPU from the various maps was redundant as it already happened in cpu_disable. After cleaning this up, cpu_uninit only resets the tlb state, so rename it and create a noop version for the X86_64 case (so the two play_deads can be unified later).

2008-08-20x86/paravirt: add spin_lock_flags lock opJeremy Fitzhardinge2-2/+14
It is useful for a pv_lock_ops backend to know whether interrupts are enabled or not in the context a spin_lock is being called. This allows it to enable interrupts while spinning, which could be particularly helpful when spinning becomes blocking. The default implementation just calls the normal spin_lock op, ignoring the flags. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-08-20x86, SGI UV: hardcode the TLB flush interrupt system vectorCliff Wickman2-5/+1
The UV TLB shootdown mechanism needs a system interrupt vector. Its vector had been hardcoded as 200, but needs to moved to the reserved system vector range so that it does not collide with some device vector. This is still temporary until dynamic system IRQ allocation is provided. But it will be needed when real UV hardware becomes available and runs 2.6.27.

2008-08-18x86, percpu: silence section mismatch warnings related to EARLY_PER_CPU ↵Marcin Slusarz1-1/+1
variables Quoting Mike Travis in "x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4" (23ca4bba3e20c6c3cb11c1bb0ab4770b724d39ac): The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable. As these variables are NULL'ed before __init sections are dropped (in setup_per_cpu_maps), they can be safely annotated as __ref. This change silences following section mismatch warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map The variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c8): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_map The variable x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46d0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_map The variable x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, Signed-off-by: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-08-18x86: correct register constraints for 64-bit atomic operationsMathieu Desnoyers1-4/+4
x86_64 add/sub atomic ops does not seems to accept integer values bigger than 32 bits as immediates. Intel's add/sub documentation specifies they have to be passed as registers. The only operations in the x86-64 architecture which accept arbitrary 64-bit immediates is "movq" to any register; similarly, the only operation which accept arbitrary 64-bit displacement is "movabs" to or from al/ax/eax/rax. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.0/gcc/Machine-Constraints.html states : e 32-bit signed integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in sign-extending x86-64 instructions). Z 32-bit unsigned integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in zero-extending x86-64 instructions). Since add/sub does sign extension, using the "e" constraint seems appropriate. It applies to 2.6.27-rc, 2.6.26, 2.6.25...

2008-08-15x86: add MAP_STACK mmap flagIngo Molnar1-0/+1
as per this discussion: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/423 Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model 64-bit P4 CPUs. So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain 64-bit apps like this. glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for it can be implemented.

2008-08-15x86: invalidate caches before going into suspendMark Langsdorf1-0/+23
When a CPU core is shut down, all of its caches need to be flushed to prevent stale data from causing errors if the core is resumed. Current Linux suspend code performs an assignment after the flush, which can add dirty data back to the cache.  On some AMD platforms, additional speculative reads have caused crashes on resume because of this dirty data. Relocate the cache flush to be the very last thing done before halting.  Tie into an assembly line so the compile will not reorder it.  Add some documentation explaining what is going on and why we're doing this.

Suresh wrote: These padlock instructions though don't use/touch SSE registers, but it behaves similar to other SSE instructions. For example, it might cause DNA faults when cr0.ts is set. While this is a spurious DNA trap, it might cause oops with the recent fpu code changes. This is the code sequence that is probably causing this problem: a) new app is getting exec'd and it is somewhere in between start_thread() and flush_old_exec() in the load_xyz_binary() b) At pont "a", task's fpu state (like TS_USEDFPU, used_math() etc) is cleared. c) Now we get an interrupt/softirq which starts using these encrypt/decrypt routines in the network stack. This generates a math fault (as cr0.ts is '1') which sets TS_USEDFPU and restores the math that is in the task's xstate. d) Return to exec code path, which does start_thread() which does free_thread_xstate() and sets xstate pointer to NULL while the TS_USEDFPU is still set. e) At the next context switch from the new exec'd task to another task, we have a scenarios where TS_USEDFPU is set but xstate pointer is null. This can cause an oops during unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to() Now: 1) This should happen with or with out pre-emption. Viro also encountered similar problem with out CONFIG_PREEMPT. 2) kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() will fix this problem, because kernel_fpu_begin() will manually do a clts() and won't run in to the situation of setting TS_USEDFPU in step "c" above. 3) This was working before the fpu changes, because its a spurious math fault which doesn't corrupt any fpu/sse registers and the task's math state was always in an allocated state. With out the recent lazy fpu allocation changes, while we don't see oops, there is a possible race still present in older kernels(for example, while kernel is using kernel_fpu_begin() in some optimized clear/copy page and an interrupt/softirq happens which uses these padlock instructions generating DNA fault). This is the failing scenario that existed even before the lazy fpu allocation changes: 0. CPU's TS flag is set 1. kernel using FPU in some optimized copy routine and while doing kernel_fpu_begin() takes an interrupt just before doing clts() 2. Takes an interrupt and ipsec uses padlock instruction. And we take a DNA fault as TS flag is still set. 3. We handle the DNA fault and set TS_USEDFPU and clear cr0.ts 4. We complete the padlock routine 5. Go back to step-1, which resumes clts() in kernel_fpu_begin(), finishes the optimized copy routine and does kernel_fpu_end(). At this point, we have cr0.ts again set to '1' but the task's TS_USEFPU is stilll set and not cleared. 6. Now kernel resumes its user operation. And at the next context switch, kernel sees it has do a FP save as TS_USEDFPU is still set and then will do a unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to(). unlazy_fpu() will take a DNA fault, as cr0.ts is '1' and now, because we are in __switch_to(), math_state_restore() will get confused and will restore the next task's FP state and will save it in prev tasks's FP state. Remember, in __switch_to() we are already on the stack of the next task but take a DNA fault for the prev task. This causes the fpu leakage. Fix the padlock instruction usage by calling them inside the context of new routines irq_ts_save/restore(), which clear/restore cr0.ts manually in the interrupt context. This will not generate spurious DNA in the context of the interrupt which will fix the oops encountered and the possible FPU leakage issue.

2008-08-11x86_64: restore the proper NR_IRQS define so larger systems work.Eric W. Biederman1-1/+9
As pointed out and tracked by Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com>: Dhaval Giani got: kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_64.c:357! invalid opcode: 0000 [1] SMP CPU 24 ... his system (x3950) has 8 ioapic, irq > 256 This was caused by: commit 9b7dc567d03d74a1fbae84e88949b6a60d922d82 Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Fri May 2 20:10:09 2008 +0200 x86: unify interrupt vector defines The interrupt vector defines are copied 4 times around with minimal differences. Move them all into asm-x86/irq_vectors.h It appears that Thomas did not notice that x86_64 does something completely different when he merge irq_vectors.h We can solve this for 2.6.27 by simply reintroducing the old heuristic for setting NR_IRQS on x86_64 to a usable value, which trivially removes the regression. Long term it would be nice to harmonize the handling of ioapic interrupts of x86_32 and x86_64 so we don't have this kind of confusion. Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> tested an earlier version of this patch by YH which confirms simply increasing NR_IRQS fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2008-08-11x86: Restore proper vector locking during cpu hotplugEric W. Biederman1-2/+10
Having cpu_online_map change during assign_irq_vector can result in some really nasty and weird things happening. The one that bit me last time was accessing non existent per cpu memory for non existent cpus. This locking was removed in a sloppy x86_64 and x86_32 merge patch. Guys can we please try and avoid subtly breaking x86 when we are merging files together? Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Make sure that fill_ldt() initializes the 'l' bit in the descriptor. It always sets it to 0, ignoring 'lm' in user_desc, preserving original x86_64 behaviour. Previously it was leaving 'l' uninitialized.

2008-07-26x86: lockless get_user_pages_fast()Nick Piggin1-0/+1
Implement get_user_pages_fast without locking in the fastpath on x86. Do an optimistic lockless pagetable walk, without taking mmap_sem or any page table locks or even mmap_sem. Page table existence is guaranteed by turning interrupts off (combined with the fact that we're always looking up the current mm, means we can do the lockless page table walk within the constraints of the TLB shootdown design). Basically we can do this lockless pagetable walk in a similar manner to the way the CPU's pagetable walker does not have to take any locks to find present ptes. This patch (combined with the subsequent ones to convert direct IO to use it) was found to give about 10% performance improvement on a 2 socket 8 core Intel Xeon system running an OLTP workload on DB2 v9.5 "To test the effects of the patch, an OLTP workload was run on an IBM x3850 M2 server with 2 processors (quad-core Intel Xeon processors at 2.93 GHz) using IBM DB2 v9.5 running Linux 2.6.24rc7 kernel. Comparing runs with and without the patch resulted in an overall performance benefit of ~9.8%. Correspondingly, oprofiles showed that samples from __up_read and __down_read routines that is seen during thread contention for system resources was reduced from 2.8% down to .05%. Monitoring the /proc/vmstat output from the patched run showed that the counter for fast_gup contained a very high number while the fast_gup_slow value was zero." (fast_gup is the old name for get_user_pages_fast, fast_gup_slow is a counter we had for the number of times the slowpath was invoked). The main reason for the improvement is that DB2 has multiple threads each issuing direct-IO. Direct-IO uses get_user_pages, and thus the threads contend the mmap_sem cacheline, and can also contend on page table locks. I would anticipate larger performance gains on larger systems, however I think DB2 uses an adaptive mix of threads and processes, so it could be that thread contention remains pretty constant as machine size increases. In which case, we stuck with "only" a 10% gain. The downside of using get_user_pages_fast is that if there is not a pte with the correct permissions for the access, we end up falling back to get_user_pages and so the get_user_pages_fast is a bit of extra work. However this should not be the common case in most performance critical code.
