Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

Intel Moorestown platform has a spi-uart device(Maxim3110),
which connects to a Designware spi core controller. This patch
will add early console function based on it.
As it will be used long before Linux spi subsystem get
initialised, we simply directly manipulate the spi controller's
register to acheive the early console func. This is safe as it
will be disabled when devices subsytem get initialised.
To use it, user need enable CONFIG_X86_MRST_EARLY_PRINTK in

We are using a very simple sort routine which sorts the .iommu_table
array in the order of dependencies. Specifically each structure
of iommu_table_entry has a field 'depend' which contains the function
pointer to the IOMMU that MUST be run before us. We sort the array
of structures so that the struct iommu_table_entry with no
'depend' field are first, and then the subsequent ones are the
ones for which the 'depend' function has been already invoked
(in other words, precede us).
Using the kernel's version 'sort', which is a mergeheap is
feasible, but would require making the comparison operator
scan recursivly the array to satisfy the "heapify" process: setting the
levels properly. The end result would much more complex than it should
be an it is just much simpler to utilize this simple sort routine.

With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
feature from the hypervisor.
Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
still work fine on VMware's platform.
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.
For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this,

Add support for saving OFW's cif, and later calling into it to run OFW
commands. OFW remains resident in memory, living within virtual range
0xff800000 - 0xffc00000. A single page directory entry points to the
pgdir that OFW actually uses, so rather than saving the entire page
table, we grab and install that one entry permanently in the kernel's
page table.
This is currently only used by the OLPC XO. Note that this particular
calling convention breaks PAE and PAT, and so cannot be used on newer

as Linus noticed it not so long ago.
It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without
regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility
needed for perf either.
Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts
was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a
much simpler approach.
So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*()

The upcoming Moorestown support brings the embedded world to x86. The
setup code of x86 has already a couple of hooks which are either
x86_quirks or paravirt ops. Some of those setup hooks are pretty
convoluted like the timer setup and the tsc calibration code. But
there are other places which could do with a cleanup.
Instead of having inline functions/macros which are modified at
compile time I decided to introduce x86_init ops which are
unconditional in the code and make it clear that they can be changed
either during compile time or in the early boot process. The function
pointers are initialized by default functions which can be noops so
that the pointer can be called unconditionally in the most cases. This
also allows us to remove 32bit/64bit, paravirt and other #ifdeffery.
paravirt guests are just a hardware platform in the setup code, so we
should treat them as such and not hide all behind multiple layers of
indirection and compile time dependencies.
It's more obvious that x86_init.timers.timer_init() is a function
pointer than the late_time_init = choose_time_init() obscurity. It's
also way simpler to grep for x86_init.timers.timer_init and find all
the places which modify that function pointer instead of analyzing
weak functions, macros and paravirt indirections.
Note. This is not a general paravirt_ops replacement. It just will
move setup related hooks which are potentially useful for other
platform setup purposes as well out of the paravirt domain.
Add the base infrastructure without any functionality.

This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
Execution Technology (Intel TXT).
Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.
Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).
Intel TXT in Brief:
o Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
o Data protection in case of improper shutdown
o Measurement and verification of launched environment
Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
non-vPro systems. It is currently available on desktop systems based on
the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
Express chipsets.
For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
has been updated for the new released platforms.
A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
in this patch.
This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
and boot detection of a TXT launch. Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
properly.

Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's
behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native.
It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized
spinlocks introduced by:
| commit 8efcbab674
| Date: Mon Jul 7 12:07:51 2008 -0700
|
| paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation
The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow
causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7%
(seems to vary quite a lot from test to test). The working theory is
that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the
call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to
speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise
reasons). This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance
hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve
locked instructions. But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the
other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're
nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions
executed).
If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is
identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that
it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown).
Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a
no-pvops build as baseline:
nopv Pv-nospin Pv-spin
CPU cycles 100.00% 99.89% 102.18%
instructions 100.00% 100.10% 100.15%
CPI 100.00% 99.79% 102.03%
cache ref 100.00% 100.84% 100.28%
cache miss 100.00% 90.47% 88.56%
cache miss rate 100.00% 89.72% 88.31%
branches 100.00% 99.93% 100.04%
branch miss 100.00% 103.66% 107.72%
branch miss rt 100.00% 103.73% 107.67%
wallclock 100.00% 99.90% 102.20%
The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is
directly reflected in the final wallclock time.
(The other interesting effect is that the more ops are
out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access
and miss rates. Not too surprising, but it suggests that
the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined. On the flipside,
the branch misses go up correspondingly...)
So, what's the fix?
Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so
_spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls. For example, the compiler
generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq *0xffffffff805a5b30
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
The indirect call will get patched to:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq <__ticket_spin_lock>
<_spin_lock+20>: nop; nop /* or whatever 2-byte nop */
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an
optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt
instrumentation/debugging enabled). That will remove the outer
call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single
call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops
case. The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the
preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is
fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are
already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor
magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial.
The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks. Making them a
separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to
enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user).
But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which
is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of
whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the
performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall
system CPU when guests block rather than spin). Still it is a
reasonable short-term workaround.

Fix trivial conflicts due to whitespace changes in arch/x86/kernel/pci-nommu.c
Partial revert of commit 129d8bc828
titled 'x86: don't compile vsmp_64 for 32bit'
Commit reverted to compile vsmp_64.c if CONFIG_X86_64 is defined,
since is_vsmp_box() needs to indicate that TSCs are not synchronized, and
hence, not a valid time source, even when CONFIG_X86_VSMP is not defined.

Impact: build fix
kernel/built-in.o: In function `ftrace_syscall_exit':
(.text+0x76667): undefined reference to `syscall_nr_to_meta'
ftrace.o is built:
obj-$(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE) += ftrace.o
obj-$(CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER) += ftrace.o
But now a CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS dependency is needed too.

Impact: cleanup
that is only needed when CONFIG_X86_VSMP is defined with 64bit
also remove dead code about PCI, because CONFIG_X86_VSMP depends on PCI

Impact: build fix, cleanup
A couple of arch setup callbacks were mistakenly in apic_32.c, breaking
the build.
Also simplify the code a bit.
