Sam Ravnborg 4c02ad1efd x86: fix section mismatch warning in process_*.c
Fix the following warning:
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x3): Section mismatch: reference to .cpuinit.data:force_mwait in 'mwait_usable'
[Seen on 64 bit only but similar pattern exist on 32 bit so fix it there too]

mwait_usable() were only used by a function annotated __cpuinit
so annotate mwait_usable() with __cpuinit to fix the warning.

Hiroshi Shimamoto 27415a4fe3 x86: move warning message of polling idle and HT enabled
The warning message at idle_setup() is never shown because
smp_num_sibling hasn't been updated at this point yet.

Move this polling idle and HT enabled warning to select_idle_routine().
I also implement this warning on 64-bit kernel.

Andi Kleen 0c07ee38c9 x86: use the correct cpuid method to detect MWAIT support for C states
Previously there was a AMD specific quirk to handle the case of
AMD Fam10h MWAIT not supporting any C states. But it turns out
that CPUID already has ways to detectly detect that without
using special quirks.

The new code simply checks if MWAIT supports at least C1 and doesn't
use it if it doesn't. No more vendor specific code.

Note this is does not simply clear MWAIT because MWAIT can be still
useful even without C states.

Credit goes to Ben Serebrin for pointing out the (nearly) obvious.

Benjamin LaHaise 0723a69a63 x86: fix synchronize_rcu(): high latency on idle system
an otherwise idle system takes about 3 ticks per network
interface in unregister_netdev() due to multiple calls to synchronize_rcu(),
which adds up to quite a few seconds for tearing down thousands of
interfaces.  By flushing pending rcu callbacks in the idle loop, the system
makes progress hundreds of times faster.  If this is indeed a sane thing to,
it probably needs to be done for other architectures than x86.  And yes, the
network stack shouldn't call synchronize_rcu() quite so much, but fixing that
is a little more involved.

Arjan van de Ven 5bc27dc2f5 x86: pull bp calculation earlier into the backtrace path
Right now, we take the stack pointer early during the backtrace path, but
only calculate bp several functions deep later, making it hard to reconcile
the stack and bp backtraces (as well as showing several internal backtrace
functions on the stack with bp based backtracing).

This patch moves the bp taking to the same place we take the stack pointer;
sadly this ripples through several layers of the back tracing stack,
but it's not all that bad in the end I hope.

We have a lot of code which differs only by the naming of specific
members of structures that contain registers.  In order to enable
additional unifications, this patch drops the e- or r- size prefix
from the register names in struct pt_regs, and drops the x- prefixes
for segment registers on the 32-bit side.

This patch also performs the equivalent renames in some additional
places that might be candidates for unification in the future.

Roland McGrath e1f287735c x86 single_step: TIF_FORCED_TF
This changes the single-step support to use a new thread_info flag
TIF_FORCED_TF instead of the PT_DTRACE flag in task_struct.ptrace.
This keeps arch implementation uses out of this non-arch field.

This changes the ptrace access to eflags to mask TF and maintain
the TIF_FORCED_TF flag directly if userland sets TF, instead of
relying on ptrace_signal_deliver.  The 64-bit and 32-bit kernels
are harmonized on this same behavior.  The ptrace_signal_deliver
approach works now, but this change makes the low-level register
access code reliable when called from different contexts than a
ptrace stop, which will be possible in the future.

The 64-bit do_debug exception handler is also changed not to clear TF
from user-mode registers.  This matches the 32-bit kernel's behavior.

Jiri Kosina c1d171a002 x86: randomize brk
Randomize the location of the heap (brk) for i386 and x86_64.  The range is
randomized in the range starting at current brk location up to 0x02000000
offset for both architectures.  This, together with
pie-executable-randomization.patch and
pie-executable-randomization-fix.patch, should make the address space
randomization on i386 and x86_64 complete.

Arjan says:

This is known to break older versions of some emacs variants, whose dumper
code assumed that the last variable declared in the program is equal to the
start of the dynamically allocated memory region.

(The dumper is the code where emacs effectively dumps core at the end of it's
compilation stage; this coredump is then loaded as the main program during
normal use)

iirc this was 5 years or so; we found this way back when I was at RH and we
first did the security stuff there (including this brk randomization).  It
wasn't all variants of emacs, and it got fixed as a result (I vaguely remember
that emacs already had code to deal with it for other archs/oses, just
ifdeffed wrongly).

It's a rare and wrong assumption as a general thing, just on x86 it mostly
happened to be true (but to be honest, it'll break too if gcc does
something fancy or if the linker does a non-standard order).  Still its
something we should at least document.

Note 2: afaik it only broke the emacs *build*.  I'm not 100% sure about that
(it IS 5 years ago) though.

Steven Rostedt 40d6a14662 Kick CPUS that might be sleeping in cpus_idle_wait
Sometimes cpu_idle_wait gets stuck because it might miss CPUS that are
already in idle, have no tasks waiting to run and have no interrupts going
to them.  This is common on bootup when switching cpu idle governors.

This patch gives those CPUS that don't check in an IPI kick.

 Background:
 -----------
I notice this while developing the mcount patches, that every once in a
while the system would hang. Looking deeper, the hang was always at boot
up when registering init_menu of the cpu_idle menu governor. Talking
with Thomas Gliexner, we discovered that one of the CPUS had no timer
events scheduled for it and it was in idle (running with NO_HZ). So the
CPU would not set the cpu_idle_state bit.

Hitting sysrq-t a few times would eventually route the interrupt to the
stuck CPU and the system would continue.

Note, I would have used the PDA isidle but that is set after the
cpu_idle_state bit is cleared, and would leave a window open where we
may miss being kicked.

hmm, looking closer at this, we still have a small race window between
clearing the cpu_idle_state and disabling interrupts (hence the RFC).

    CPU0:                          CPU 1:
  ---------                       ---------
 cpu_idle_wait():                 cpu_idle():
      |                           __cpu_cpu_var(is_idle) = 1;
      |                           if (__get_cpu_var(cpu_idle_state)) /* == 0 */
 per_cpu(cpu_idle_state, 1) = 1;         |
 if (per_cpu(is_idle, 1)) /* == 1 */     |
 smp_call_function(1)                    |
      |                             receives ipi and runs do_nothing.
 wait on map == empty               idle();
   /* waits forever */

So really we need interrupts off for most of this then. One might think
that we could simply clear the cpu_idle_state from do_nothing, but I'm
assuming that cpu_idle governors can be removed, and this might cause a
race that a governor might be used after the module was removed.

Venki said:

  I think your RFC patch is the right solution here.  As I see it, there is
  no race with your RFC patch.  As long as you call a dummy smp_call_function
  on all CPUs, we should be OK.  We can get rid of cpu_idle_state and the
  current wait forever logic altogether with dummy smp_call_function.  And so
  there wont be any wait forever scenario.

  The whole point of cpu_idle_wait() is to make all CPUs come out of idle
  loop atleast once.  The caller will use cpu_idle_wait something like this.

  // Want to change idle handler

  - Switch global idle handler to always present default_idle

  - call cpu_idle_wait so that all cpus come out of idle for an instant
    and stop using old idle pointer and start using default idle

  - Change the idle handler to a new handler

  - optional cpu_idle_wait if you want all cpus to start using the new
    handler immediately.

Maybe the below 1s patch is safe bet for .24.  But for .25, I would say we
just replace all complicated logic by simple dummy smp_call_function and
remove cpu_idle_state altogether.
