Roland McGrath ccbe495caa x86-64: syscall-audit: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system
call number table and the wrong system call argument registers.  This
could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters
based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

Rafael J. Wysocki 770824bdc4 PM: Split up sysdev_[suspend|resume] from device_power_[down|up]
Move the sysdev_suspend/resume from the callee to the callers, with
no real change in semantics, so that we can rework the disabling of
interrupts during suspend/hibernation.

This is based on an earlier patch from Linus.

Linus Torvalds 936577c61d x86: Add IRQF_TIMER to legacy x86 timer interrupt descriptors
Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want
to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will
depend on this flag to know.

The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never
shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't
need any of this.

Jiri Slaby 6defa2fe20 x86_64: Fix S3 fail path
As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in
do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's
caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count.

Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to
the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if
acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle
the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

H. Peter Anvin cc3ca22063 x86, mce: remove incorrect __cpuinit for mce_cpu_features()
Impact: Bug fix on UP

Checkin 6ec68bff3c81e776a455f6aca95c8c5f1d630198:
    x86, mce: reinitialize per cpu features on resume

introduced a call to mce_cpu_features() in the resume path, in order
for the MCE machinery to get properly reinitialized after a resume.
However, this function (and its successors) was flagged __cpuinit,
which becomes __init on UP configurations (on SMP suspend/resume
requires CPU hotplug and so this would not be seen.)

Remove the offending __cpuinit annotations for mce_cpu_features() and
its successor functions.

Shows rcu_check_callbacks() being invoked way too often. It should be called
once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about
3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so.

Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the
idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does
this?

The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and
rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to
reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

john stultz b13e24644c x86, hpet: fix for LS21 + HPET = boot hang
Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21
systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs
for x86_64.

Specifically commit b8ce335906, which
merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code.

Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did
the following:

	hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL |
                    HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG);

However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following:

	cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
	cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC |
			HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT;
	hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));

However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register
boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This
causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in
the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration.

My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode.

Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context

They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility
that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten
with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be
in lazy mode.  Either way, we could end up calling it with
preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little
preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any
context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually
in a lazy state).

(Move out of line to avoid #include dependencies.)

Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in

Tejun Heo d315760ffa x86: fix math_emu register frame access
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
of configuration in the current code.

This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
like normal C functions do.  This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
used.

This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
somewhat working.

As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the

page table page.

After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and
depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance
and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots).

Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from
the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

Yinghai Lu 3f4a739c6a x86: find nr_irqs_gsi with mp_ioapic_routing
Impact: find right nr_irqs_gsi on some systems.

One test-system has gap between gsi's:

[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 4, version 0, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x05] address[0xfeafd000] gsi_base[48])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 5, version 0, address 0xfeafd000, GSI 48-54
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x06] address[0xfeafc000] gsi_base[56])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 6, version 0, address 0xfeafc000, GSI 56-62
...
[    0.000000] nr_irqs_gsi: 38

So nr_irqs_gsi is not right. some irq for MSI will overwrite with io_apic.

need to get that with acpi_probe_gsi when acpi io_apic is used

Pallipadi, Venkatesh e736ad548d x86: add clflush before monitor for Intel 7400 series
For Intel 7400 series CPUs, the recommendation is to use a clflush on the
monitored address just before monitor and mwait pair [1].

This clflush makes sure that there are no false wakeups from mwait when the
monitored address was recently written to.

Mark Langsdorf 732553e567 [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Get transition latency from ACPI _PSS table
At this time, the PowerNow! driver for K8 uses an experimentally
derived formula to calculate transition latency.  The value it
provides is orders of magnitude too large on modern systems.
This patch replaces the formula with ACPI _PSS latency values
for more accuracy and better performance.

I've tested it on two 2nd generation Opteron systems, a 3rd
generation Operton system, and a Turion X2 without seeing any
stability problems.

Pavel Emelyanov a6a95406c6 x86: fix hpet timer reinit for x86_64
There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks
for the:

	hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0

to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the
hpet_t1_cmp (variable).

But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp
is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits
the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't
increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough.

The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less,
than the COUNTER and never increased again.

The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits
(on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed
integers.

	ACPI MP table (MADT)

Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with
missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process
due to the APIC not being initialized. Fix that by falling back to the
default APIC base address in 32bit code, as it is done in the 64bit
codepath.

[
  mingo@elte.hu: these fixes are a subset of changes cherry-picked from:

     git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/voyager-2.6.git

  They fix various problems that recent x86 changes caused in the Voyager
  subarchitecture: both APIC changes and cpumask changes and certain
  cleanups caused subarch assumptions to break.

  Most of these changes are obsolete as the subarch code has been removed
  from the x86 development tree - but we merge them upstream to make Voyager
  build and boot.

| Reported 709 times (14696 total reports)
| BIOS bug (often in VMWare) where the MTRR's are set up incorrectly
| or not at all
|
| This warning was last seen in version 2.6.29-rc2-git1, and first
| seen in 2.6.24.

| More info:

MTRRs are caused by native hardware/BIOS weirdness.
