This patch updates the kvm host code to use the pvclock structs
and functions, thereby making it compatible with Xen.
The patch also fixes an initialization bug: on SMP systems the
per-cpu has two different locations early at boot and after CPU
bringup. kvmclock must take that in account when registering the
physical address within the host.

This patch adds structs for the paravirt clocksource ABI
used by both xen and kvm (pvclock-abi.h).
It also adds some helper functions to read system time and
wall clock time from a paravirtual clocksource (pvclock.[ch]).
They are based on the xen code. They are enabled using
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK.
Subsequent patches of this series will put the code in use.

Booting 2.6.26-rc6 on my 486 DX/4 fails with a "BUG: Int 6"
(invalid opcode) and a kernel halt immediately after the
kernel has been uncompressed. The BUG shows EIP pointing
to an rdtsc instruction in native_read_tsc(), invoked from
native_sched_clock().
(This error occurs so early that not even the serial console
can capture it.)
A bisection showed that this bug first occurs in 2.6.26-rc3-git7,
via commit 9ccc906c97e34fd91dc6aaf5b69b52d824386910:

The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets
called before tsc_init().
Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable
which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late
in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip
the TSC and use jiffies instead.
After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable
which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls
to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on
!cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions.
My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled"
state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc"
kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also
allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1
on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all
checks have succeeded.
I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified
that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not
allocated or freed.
Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization
which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation
patch.
New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point.
flush_thread() {
...
/*
* Forget coprocessor state..
*/
clear_fpu(tsk);
<----- Preemption point
clear_used_math();
...
}
Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set
and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets
the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point
it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate().
Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is
null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will
trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops.
Fix this by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.

Recently (around 2.6.25) I've noticed that RTC no longer works for me. It
turned out this is because I use pnpacpi=off kernel option to work around
the parport_pc bugs. I always did so, but RTC used to work fine in the
past, and now it have regressed.
The patch fixes the problem by creating the platform device for the RTC
when PNP is disabled. This may also help running the PNP-enabled kernel
on an older PCs.

It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from. Too bad,
lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't
go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace?
The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess
this is the case. Yep, seems like it.

Currently arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c always adds __GFP_NORETRY
to the allocation flags, because it wants to be reasonably
sure not to deadlock when calling alloc_pages().
But really that should only be done in two cases:
- when allocating memory in the lower 16 MB DMA zone.
If there's no free memory there, waiting or OOM killing is of no use
- when optimistically trying an allocation in the DMA32 zone
when dma_mask < DMA_32BIT_MASK hoping that the allocation
happens to fall within the limits of the dma_mask
Also blindly adding __GFP_NORETRY to the the gfp variable might
not be a good idea since we then also use it when calling
dma_ops->alloc_coherent(). Clearing it might also not be a
good idea, dma_alloc_coherent()'s caller might have set it
on purpose. The gfp variable should not be clobbered.

Jürgen Mell reported an FPU state corruption bug under CONFIG_PREEMPT,
and bisected it to commit v2.6.19-1363-gacc2076, "i386: add sleazy FPU
optimization".
Add tsk_used_math() checks to prevent calling math_state_restore()
which can sleep in the case of !tsk_used_math(). This prevents
making a blocking call in __switch_to().
Apparently "fpu_counter > 5" check is not enough, as in some signal handling
and fork/exec scenarios, fpu_counter > 5 and !tsk_used_math() is possible.
It's a side effect though. This is the failing scenario:
process 'A' in save_i387_ia32() just after clear_used_math()
Got an interrupt and pre-empted out.
At the next context switch to process 'A' again, kernel tries to restore
the math state proactively and sees a fpu_counter > 0 and !tsk_used_math()
This results in init_fpu() during the __switch_to()'s math_state_restore()
And resulting in fpu corruption which will be saved/restored
(save_i387_fxsave and restore_i387_fxsave) during the remaining
part of the signal handling after the context switch.

The previous revert of 0c07ee38c9 left
out the mwait disable condition for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs.
Andreas Herrman said:
It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong.
Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then
depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core.
If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can
enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never
happen.
Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here.
It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU
families like it was introduced with commit
f039b75471 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD
Family 10)
Re-add the AMD families 10H/11H check and disable the mwait usage for
those.

| x86: use the correct cpuid method to detect MWAIT support for C states
remove the functional effects of this patch and make mwait unconditional.
A future patch will turn off mwait on specific CPUs where that causes
power to be wasted.

The user_regset_view table for the 32-bit regsets on the 64-bit build had
the wrong sizes for the FP regsets. This bug had no user-visible effect
(just on kernel modules using the user_regset interfaces and the like).
But the fix is trivial and risk-free.

Fix this symbol export problem:
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST 193 modules
ERROR: "csum_partial" [fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.ko] undefined!
make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
make: *** [modules] Error 2
This is due to a known weakness of symbol exports: if a symbol's
only in-core user is an EXPORT_SYMBOL from a lib-y section, the
symbol is not linked in.
The solution is to move the export to x8664_ksyms_64.c - but the real
solution would be to fix kbuild.
