On the platforms which are x2apic and interrupt-remapping
capable, Linux kernel is enabling x2apic even if the BIOS
doesn't. This is to take advantage of the features that x2apic
brings in.
Some of the OEM platforms are running into issues because of
this, as their bios is not x2apic aware. For example, this was
resulting in interrupt migration issues on one of the platforms.
Also if the BIOS SMI handling uses APIC interface to send SMI's,
then the BIOS need to be aware of x2apic mode that OS has
enabled.
On some of these platforms, BIOS doesn't have a HW mechanism to
turnoff the x2apic feature to prevent OS from enabling it.
To resolve this mess, recent changes to the VT-d2 specification:
http://download.intel.com/technology/computing/vptech/Intel(r)_VT_for_Direct_IO.pdf
includes a mechanism that provides BIOS a way to request system
software to opt out of enabling x2apic mode.
Look at the x2apic optout flag in the DMAR tables before
enabling the x2apic mode in the platform. Also print a warning
that we have disabled x2apic based on the BIOS request.
Kernel boot parameter "intremap=no_x2apic_optout" can be used to
override the BIOS x2apic optout request.

On x86-64, they were just wasteful: with the explicitly added (now
unnecessary) padding, the size of the alternatives structure was 16
bytes, and an alignment of 8 bytes didn't hurt much.
However, it was still silly, since the natural size and alignment for
the structure is actually just 12 bytes, 4-byte aligned since commit
59e97e4d6fbc ("x86: Make alternative instruction pointers relative").
So removing the padding, and removing the extra alignment is just a good
idea.
On x86-32, the alignment of 4 bytes was correct, but was incorrectly
hardcoded as 8 bytes in <asm/alternative-asm.h>. That header file had
used to be an x86-64 only header file, but various unification efforts
have made it be used for x86-32 too (ie the unification of rwlock and
rwsem).
That in turn caused x86-32 boot failures, because the extra alignment
would result in random zero-filled words in the altinstructions section,
causing oopses early at boot when doing alternative instruction
replacement.
So just remove all the alignment noise entirely. It's wrong, and it's
unnecessary. The section itself is already properly aligned by the
linker scripts, and all additions to the section had better be of the
proper 12-byte format, keeping it aligned. So if the align directive
were to ever make a difference, that would be an indication of a serious
bug to begin with.

tty->count is decremented only after ->close() had been called and
several tasks can hit it in parallel. As the result, using tty->count
to check if you are the last one is broken. We end up leaving line->tty
not reset to NULL and the next IRQ on that sucker will blow up trying to
dereference pointers from kfree'd struct tty.
Fix is obvious: we need to use a counter of our own.

Some time ago Jeff prepared 42daba316557 ("uml: stop saving process FP
state") for UML to stop saving the process FP state between task
switches. The assumption was that since with SKAS0 every guest process
runs inside a host process context the host OS will take care of keeping
the proper FP state.
Unfortunately this is not true for multi-threaded applications, where
all guest threads share a single host process context yet all may use
the FPU on their own. Although I haven't verified it I suspect things
to be even worse in SKAS3 mode where all guest processes run inside a
single host process.
The patch reintroduces the saving and restoring of the FP context
between task switches.
[richard@nod.at: Ingo posted this patch in 2009, sadly it was never applied
and got lost. Now in 2011 the problem was reported by Gunnar.]

The patch "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM"
(d312ae878b6aed3912e1acaaf5d0b2a9d08a4f11) breaks machines that
do not use 'dom0_mem=' argument with:
reserve RAM buffer: 000000133f2e2000 - 000000133fffffff
(XEN) mm.c:4976:d0 Global bit is set to kernel page fffff8117e
(XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S
(XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0:
...
The reason being that the last E820 entry is created using the
'extra_pages' (which is based on how many pages have been freed).
The mentioned git commit sets the initial value of 'extra_pages'
using a hypercall which returns the number of pages (if dom0_mem
has been used) or -1 otherwise. If the later we return with
MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES as basis for calculation:
return min(max_pages, MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES);
and use it:
extra_limit = xen_get_max_pages();
if (extra_limit >= max_pfn)
extra_pages = extra_limit - max_pfn;
else
extra_pages = 0;
which means we end up with extra_pages = 128GB in PFNs (33554432)
- 8GB in PFNs (2097152, on this specific box, can be larger or smaller),
and then we add that value to the E820 making it:
Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000133f2e2000 (usable)
which is clearly wrong. It should look as so:
Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000027fbda000 (usable)
Naturally this problem does not present itself if dom0_mem=max:X
is used.

The TNET variant of DaVinci compiles some code that it shares
with other DaVinci variants, however it has a V6 CPU rather than
an ARM926T, thus the hardcoded call to arm926_flush_kern_cache_all()
in sleep.S will obviously fail, and we need to build with the
v6_flush_kern_cache_all() call instead. This was triggered by
manually altering the DaVinci config to build the TNET version.

DA850/OMAP-L138 EMAC driver uses random mac address instead of
a fixed one because the mac address is not stuffed into EMAC
platform data.
This patch provides a function which reads the mac address
stored in SPI flash (registered as MTD device) and populates the
EMAC platform data. The function which reads the mac address is
registered as a callback which gets called upon addition of MTD
device.
NOTE: In case the MAC address stored in SPI flash is erased, follow
the instructions at [1] to restore it.
[1] http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/GSG:_OMAP-L138_DVEVM_Additional_Procedures#Restoring_MAC_address_on_SPI_Flash
Modifications in v2:
Guarded registering the mtd_notifier only when MTD is enabled.
Earlier this was handled using mtd_has_partitions() call, but
this has been removed in Linux v3.0.
Modifications in v3:
a. Guarded da850_evm_m25p80_notify_add() function and
da850evm_spi_notifier structure with CONFIG_MTD macros.
b. Renamed da850_evm_register_mtd_user() function to
da850_evm_setup_mac_addr() and removed the struct mtd_notifier
argument to this function.
c. Passed the da850evm_spi_notifier structure to register_mtd_user()
function.

CONFIG_MTD ifdef construct.

As it was decided not to export struct pt_regs to userspace, struct
sigcontext shouldn't be using it either. The pt_regs struct for OpenRISC
is kernel internal and the layout of the registers may change in the
future. The struct user_regs_struct is what is guaranteed to remain
stable, so struct sigcontext may use that instead.
This patch removes the usage of struct pt_regs in struct sigcontext and
makes according changes in signal.c to get the register layout right.
The usp field is removed from the sigcontext structure as this information
is already contained in the user_regs_struct.

When ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL is selected, pfn_valid calls
memblock_is_memory to test validity of a pfn:
> memblock_is_memory(pfn << PAGE_SHIFT);
On LPAE systems this cuts off the top bits, as the shift occurs before
the value is promoted to a phys_addr_t.
This patch replaces the shift with a call to __pfn_to_phys (which casts
pfn to phys_addr_t before shifting), preventing the loss of significant

options turn of important sources of interrupt information so
we end up not being able to boot. The correct way is to
pass in 'dom0_max_vcpus=1' on the Xen hypervisor line and
the kernel will patch itself to be a UP kernel.

interrupts, the following code (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:112):
cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
sete XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)
will enable interrupts even if they has been previously disabled according to
eflags from the bounce frame (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:99)
testb $X86_EFLAGS_IF>>8, 8+1+ESP_OFFSET(%esp)
setz XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)
Solution is in setting XEN_vcpu_info_mask only when it should be set
according to
cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
but not clearing it if there isn't any pending events.
Reproducer for bug is attached to RHBZ 707552

Use the domain's maximum reservation to limit the amount of extra RAM
for the memory balloon. This reduces the size of the pages tables and
the amount of reserved low memory (which defaults to about 1/32 of the
total RAM).
On a system with 8 GiB of RAM with the domain limited to 1 GiB the
kernel reports:
Before:
Memory: 627792k/4472000k available
After:
Memory: 549740k/11132224k available
A increase of about 76 MiB (~1.5% of the unused 7 GiB). The reserved
low memory is also reduced from 253 MiB to 32 MiB. The total
additional usable RAM is 329 MiB.
For dom0, this requires at patch to Xen ('x86: use 'dom0_mem' to limit
the number of pages for dom0') (c/s 23790)

An event may occur when an mm is already released.
I added an event in dequeue_entity() and caught a panic with
the following backtrace:

In the p1023rds, a physical bus of nor flash is 16 bits width.
The bank-width is width (in bytes) of the bus width. So, the
value of bank-width of nor flash is not one, and it should be
two.
