Here is a small patch for i386 which adds a cpufeature flag and detection code for Intel's Branch Trace Store (BTS) feature. This feature can be found on Intel P4 and Core 2 processors among others. It can also be used by perfmon. changelog: - add CPU_FEATURE_BTS - add Branch Trace Store detection signed-off-by:

Move the irqbalance quirks for E7320/E7520/E7525(Errata 23 in http://download.intel.com/design/chipsets/specupdt/30304203.pdf) to early quirks. And add a PCI quirk for these platforms to check(which happens very late during the boot) if the APIC routing is indeed set to default flat mode. This fixes the breakage(in x86_64) of this quirk due to cpu hotplug which selects physical mode instead of the logical flat(as needed for this errata workaround). Signed-off-by:

Siddha, Suresh B authored
Mechanism of selecting physical mode in genapic when cpu hotplug is enabled on x86_64, broke the quirk(quirk_intel_irqbalance()) introduced for working around the transposing interrupt message errata in E7520/E7320/E7525 (revision ID 0x9 and below. errata #23 in http://download.intel.com/design/chipsets/specupdt/30304203.pdf). This errata requires the mode to be in logical flat, so that interrupts can be directed to more than one cpu(and thus use hardware IRQ balancing enabled by BIOS on these platforms). Following four patches fixes this by moving the quirk to early quirk and forcing the x86_64 genapic selection to logical flat on these platforms. Thanks to Shaohua for pointing out the breakage.

o On some platforms like avr32, section init comes before .text and not necessarily a symbol's relative position w.r.t _text is positive. In such cases assembler detects the overflow and emits warning. This patch fixes it. Signed-off-by:

Until not so long ago, there were system log messages pointing to inconsistent MTRR setup of the video frame buffer caused by the way vesafb and X worked. While vesafb was fixed meanwhile, I believe fixing it there only hides a shortcoming in the MTRR code itself, in that that code is not symmetric with respect to the ordering of attempts to set up two (or more) regions where one contains the other. In the current shape, it permits only setting up sub-regions of pre-exisiting ones. The patch below makes this symmetric. While working on that I noticed a few more inconsistencies in that code, namely - use of 'unsigned int' for sizes in many, but not all places (the patch is converting this to use 'unsigned long' everywhere, which specifically might be necessary for x86-64 once a processor supporting more than 44 physical address bits would become available) - the code to correct inconsistent settings during secondary processor startup tried (if necessary) to correct, among other things, the value in IA32_MTRR_DEF_TYPE, however the newly computed value would never get used (i.e. stored in the respective MSR) - the generic range validation code checked that the end of the to-be-added range would be above 1MB; the value checked should have been the start of the range - when contained regions are detected, previously this was allowed only when the old region was uncacheable; this can be symmetric (i.e. the new region can also be uncacheable) and even further as per Intel's documentation write-trough and write-back for either region is also compatible with the respective opposite in the other Signed-off-by:

While not strictly required with the current code (as the upper half of page table entries generated by __set_fixmap() cannot be non-zero due to the second parameter of this function being 'unsigned long'), the use of set_pte() in __set_fixmap() in the context of clear_fixmap() is still improper with CONFIG_X86_PAE (see the respective comment in include/asm-i386/pgtable-3level.h) and would turn into a bug if that second parameter ever gets changed to a 64-bit type.

The final line of /proc/<pid>/maps on x86_64 for native 64-bit tasks shows an incorrect ending address and incorrect permissions. There is only a single page mapped in this vsyscall region, and it is accessible for both read and execute. The patch below fixes this. (Since 32-bit-compat tasks have a real vma with correct perms/range, no change is necessary for that scenario.) Before the patch, a "cat /proc/self/maps | tail -1" shows this: ffffffffff600000-ffffffffffe00000 ---p 00000000 [...] After the patch, this is the output: ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 [...] Signed-off-by:Ernie Petrides <petrides@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

Mainly for the 64bit cache line sizes because gcc doesn't support optimizing for core2 yet.

Add a way to disable the timer IRQ routing check via a boot option. The VMI timer code uses this to avoid triggering the pester Mingo code, which probes for some very unusual and broken motherboard routings. It fires 100% of the time when using a paravirtual delay mechanism instead of using a realtime delay, since there is no elapsed real time, and the 4 timer IRQs have not yet been delivered. In addition, it is entirely possible, though improbable, that this bug could surface on real hardware which picks a particularly bad time to enter SMM mode, causing a long latency during one of the timer IRQs. While here, make check_timer be __init. Signed-off-by:

The function ptep_get_and_clear uses an atomic instruction sequence to get and clear an active pte. Rather than add such an atomic operator to all virtual machine implementations in paravirt-ops, it is easier to support the raw atomic sequence and use either a trapping writable pagetable approach, or a post-update notification. For the post update notification, we require the pte_update function to be called after the access. Combine the 2-level and 3-level paging operators into one common function which does the post-update notification, and rename the actual atomic sequences to raw_ptep_xxx operators. Signed-off-by:
