Impact: don't play with current's cpumask It's generally a very bad idea to mug some process's cpumask: it could legitimately and reasonably be changed by root, which could break us (if done before our code) or them (if we restore the wrong value). Use rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu instead.

We use smp_call_function_single: this had the advantage of being more efficient, too.

By definition, "cpuinfo_cur_freq" should report the value from HW. So, don't depend on the cached value. Instead read P-state directly from HW, while taking into account the erratum 311 workaround for Fam 11h processors.

Christoph Hellwig noticed the following potential uninitialised use: > arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c: In function 'time_cpufreq_notifier': > arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c:634: warning: 'dummy' may be used uninitialized in this function > > where we do have CONFIG_SMP set, freq->flags & CPUFREQ_CONST_LOOPS is > true and ref_freq is false. It seems plausable, though the circumstances for hitting it are really low. Nearly all SMP capable cpufreq drivers set CPUFREQ_CONST_LOOPS. powernow-k8 is really the only exception. The older CPUs were typically only ever UP. (powernow-k7 never supported SMP for eg) It's worth fixing regardless, as it cleans up the code. Fix possible uninitialized use of dummy, by just removing it, and making the setting of lpj more obvious. Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

With this patch you have following minimal sampling rate restrictions: Kernel restrictions: If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, the limit is 10ms fixed. If CONFIG_NO_HZ is not set or no_hz=off boot parameter is used, the limits depend on the CONFIG_HZ option: HZ=1000: min=20000us (20ms) HZ=250: min=80000us (80ms) HZ=100: min=200000us (200ms) HW restrictions: Do not sample/poll more often than HW latency * 100 exported by the low level cpufreq HW driver The higher value of above restrictions is the minimal sampling rate that can be set (and can be seen via ondemand/sampling_rate_min sysfs file) Default sampling rate still is HW latency * 1000, but this will now end up in lower values on latest (Intel and AMD) hardware as these can switch really fast and sampling rate mostly was limited to the 80ms or 200ms (depending on whether HZ=250 or HZ=1000 is used).

In addition to KT_DEAD which has limited support for diacriticals, there is KT_DEAD2 that can support 256 criticals, so let's advertise it in <linux/keyboard.h>. This lets userland know abut the drivers/char/keyboard.c function k_dead2, which supports more than the few trivial ones that k_dead supports.

When both MSI-X and legacy INTx fail to generate an interrupt, the driver frees the MSI-X interrupts twice.
