Don Zickus eeaaa96a3a x86/nmi: Fix section mismatch warnings on 32-bit
It was reported that compiling for 32-bit caused a bunch of
section mismatch warnings:

 VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-syms.lds
  LD      arch/x86/vdso/built-in.o
  LD      arch/x86/built-in.o

 WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5af0): Section mismatch in
 reference from the variable test_nmi_ipi_callback_na.10451 to
 the function .init.text:test_nmi_ipi_callback() [...]

 WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.data+0x5b04): Section mismatch in
 reference from the variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399 to the function
 .init.text:nmi_unk_cb() The variable nmi_unk_cb_na.10399
 references the function __init nmi_unk_cb() [...]

Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler.  The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.

To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch.  This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.

Big thanks to Jan Beulich for decoding this for me as I didn't
have a clue what was going on.

Steffen Rumler 3c75296562 powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module load
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.

According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.

This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.

The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code.  According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.

I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

Cliff Wickman d5d2d2eea8 x86/uv: Fix UV2 BAU legacy mode
The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.

But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

Yinghai Lu bd2753b2dd x86/mm: Only add extra pages count for the first memory range during pre-allocation early page table space
Robin found this regression:

| I just tried to boot an 8TB system.  It fails very early in boot with:
| Kernel panic - not syncing: Cannot find space for the kernel page tables

git bisect commit 722bc6b167.

A git revert of that commit does boot past that point on the 8TB
configuration.

That commit will add up extra pages for all memory range even
above 4g.

Try to limit that extra page count adding to first entry only.

Paul Mackerras 860aed25a1 powerpc/time: Sanity check of decrementer expiration is necessary
This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check
of decrementer expiration").  We do need to check whether we have reached
the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise().  The effect of not having the sanity check is that
if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency).  I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.

This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding
code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

Jordan Justen 743628e868 x86, efi stub: Add .reloc section back into image
Some UEFI firmware will not load a .efi with a .reloc section
with a size of 0.

Therefore, we create a .efi image with 4 main areas and 3 sections.
1. PE/COFF file header
2. .setup section (covers all setup code following the first sector)
3. .reloc section (contains 1 dummy reloc entry, created in build.c)
4. .text section (covers the remaining kernel image)

To make room for the new .setup section data, the header
bugger_off_msg had to be shortened.

Vince Weaver c48b60538c perf/x86: Use rdpmc() rather than rdmsr() when possible in the kernel
The rdpmc instruction is faster than the equivelant rdmsr call,
so use it when possible in the kernel.

The perfctr kernel patches did this, after extensive testing showed
rdpmc to always be faster (One can look in etc/costs in the perfctr-2.6
package to see a historical list of the overhead).

I have done some tests on a 3.2 kernel, the kernel module I used
was included in the first posting of this patch:

                   rdmsr           rdpmc
 Core2 T9900:      203.9 cycles     30.9 cycles
 AMD fam0fh:        56.2 cycles      9.8 cycles
 Atom 6/28/2:      129.7 cycles     50.6 cycles

The speedup of using rdpmc is large.

[ It's probably possible (and desirable) to do this without
  requiring a new field in the hw_perf_event structure, but
  the fixed events make this tricky. ]

Arun Sharma 302fa4b58a perf/x86: Allow multiple stacks
Without this patch, applications with two different stack
regions (eg: native stack vs JIT stack) get truncated
callchains even when RBP chaining is present. GDB shows proper
stack traces and the frame pointer chaining is intact.

This patch disables the (fp < RSP) check, hoping that other checks
in the code save the day for us. In our limited testing, this
didn't seem to break anything.

In the long term, we could potentially have userspace advise
the kernel on the range of valid stack addresses, so we don't
spend a lot of time unwinding from bogus addresses.

Peter Zijlstra b430f7c470 perf/x86: Fix Intel shared extra MSR allocation
Zheng Yan reported that event group validation can wreck event state
when Intel extra_reg allocation changes event state.

Validation shouldn't change any persistent state. Cloning events in
validate_{event,group}() isn't really pretty either, so add a few
special cases to avoid modifying the event state.

The code is restructured to minimize the special case impact.

Kamalesh Babulal ceb1cbac8e sched/x86: Calculate booted cores after construction of sibling_mask
Commit 316ad24830 ("sched/x86: Rewrite set_cpu_sibling_map()")
broke the booted_cores accounting.

The problem is that the booted_cores accounting needs all the
sibling links set up. So restore the second loop and add a comment as
to why its needed.

On qemu booted with -smp sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2;
Before:
 $ grep cores /proc/cpuinfo
 cpu cores       : 2
 cpu cores       : 1
 cpu cores       : 4
 cpu cores       : 3

With the patch:
 $ grep cores /proc/cpuinfo
 cpu cores       : 2
 cpu cores       : 2
 cpu cores       : 2
 cpu cores       : 2

Tomoki Sekiyama f6175f5bfb x86/ioapic: Fix NULL pointer dereference on CPU hotplug after disabling irqs
In current Linux, percpu variable `vector_irq' is not cleared on
offlined cpus while disabling devices' irqs. If the cpu that has
the disabled irqs in vector_irq is hotplugged,
__setup_vector_irq() hits invalid irq vector and may crash.

This bug can be reproduced as following;

  # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online
  # modprobe -r some_driver_using_interrupts      # vector_irq@cpu7 uncleared
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online  # kernel may crash

This patch fixes this bug by clearing vector_irq in
__clear_irq_vector() even if the cpu is offlined.

---[ end trace 320af5cb1cb60c5b ]---

The root cause seems to be the
default_send_IPI_mask_allbutself_phys() takes quite some time (I
measured it could be several ms) to complete sending NMIs to all
the other 23 CPUs, and for HZ=250/1000 system, the time is long
enough for a timer interrupt to happen, which will in turn
trigger to kick load balance to a stopped CPU and cause this
warning in native_smp_send_reschedule().

So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this
problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there
should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot
stage.

The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending
REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR
fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

Yasuaki Ishimatsu 4af463d28f x86/numa: Set numa_nodes_parsed at acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init()
When hot-adding a CPU, the system outputs following messages
since node_to_cpumask_map[2] was not allocated memory.

Booting Node 2 Processor 32 APIC 0xc0
node_to_cpumask_map[2] NULL
Pid: 0, comm: swapper/32 Tainted: G       A     3.3.5-acd #21
Call Trace:
 [<ffffffff81048845>] debug_cpumask_set_cpu+0x155/0x160
 [<ffffffff8105e28a>] ? add_timer_on+0xaa/0x120

 [<ffffffff81505263>] smp_callin+0x139/0x1be
 [<ffffffff815052fb>] start_secondary+0x13/0xeb

The reason is that the bit of node 2 was not set at
numa_nodes_parsed. numa_nodes_parsed is set by only
acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init. Thus even if hot-added memory
which is same PXM as hot-added CPU is written in ACPI SRAT
Table, if the hot-added CPU is not written in ACPI SRAT table,
numa_nodes_parsed is not set.

But according to ACPI Spec Rev 5.0, it says about ACPI SRAT
table as follows: This optional table provides information that
allows OSPM to associate processors and memory ranges, including
ranges of memory provided by hot-added memory devices, with
system localities / proximity domains and clock domains.

It means that ACPI SRAT table only provides information for CPUs
present at boot time and for memory including hot-added memory.
So hot-added memory is written in ACPI SRAT table, but hot-added
CPU is not written in it. Thus numa_nodes_parsed should be set
by not only acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init but also
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init for the case.

Additionally, if system has cpuless memory node,
acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init cannot set numa_nodes_parseds
since these functions cannot find cpu description for the node.
In this case, numa_nodes_parsed needs to be set by
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init.

Masami Hiramatsu 436d03faf6 x86/decoder: Fix bsr/bsf/jmpe decoding with operand-size prefix
Fix the x86 instruction decoder to decode bsr/bsf/jmpe with
operand-size prefix (66h). This fixes the test case failure
reported by Linus, attached below.

bsf/bsr/jmpe have a special encoding. Opcode map in
Intel Software Developers Manual vol2 says they have
TZCNT/LZCNT variants if it has F3h prefix. However, there
is no information if it has other 66h or F2h prefixes.
Current instruction decoder supposes that those are
bad instructions, but it actually accepts at least
operand-size prefixes.

H. Peter Anvin further explains:

 " TZCNT/LZCNT are F3 + BSF/BSR exactly because the F2 and
   F3 prefixes have historically been no-ops with most instructions.
   This allows software to unconditionally use the prefixed versions
   and get TZCNT/LZCNT on the processors that have them if they don't
   care about the difference. "

This fixes errors reported by test_get_len:

  Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <em_bsf>:ffffffff81036d87
  Warning: ffffffff81036de5:	66 0f bc c2          	bsf    %dx,%ax

Marek Szyprowski f1ae98da85 ARM: dma-mapping: remove unconditional dependency on CMA
CMA has been enabled unconditionally on all ARMv6+ systems to solve the
long standing issue of double kernel mappings for all dma coherent
buffers. This however created a dependency on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL for
the whole ARM architecture what should be really avoided. This patch
removes this dependency and lets one use old, well-tested dma-mapping
implementation also on ARMv6+ systems without the need to use
EXPERIMENTAL stuff.

Linus Torvalds 63004afa71 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull straggler x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
 "Three groups of patches:

  - EFI boot stub documentation and the ability to print error messages;
  - Removal for PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 (obsolete interface which
    should never have been ported, and the port is broken and
    potentially dangerous.)
  - ftrace stack corruption fixes.  I'm not super-happy about the
    technical implementation, but it is probably the least invasive in
    the short term.  In the future I would like a single method for
    nesting the debug stack, however."

  x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32
  x86, efi: Add EFI boot stub documentation
  x86, efi; Add EFI boot stub console support

  ftrace/x86: Do not change stacks in DEBUG when calling lockdep

Linus Torvalds 233e562eac Merge 'for-linus' branches from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/{vfs,signal}
Pull vfs fix and a fix from the signal changes for frv from Al Viro.

The __kernel_nlink_t for powerpc got scrogged because 64-bit powerpc
actually depended on the default "unsigned long", while 32-bit powerpc
had an explicit override to "unsigned short".  Al didn't notice, and
made both of them be the unsigned short.

The frv signal fix is fallout from simplifying the do_notify_resume()
code, and leaving an extra parenthesis.

  powerpc: Fix size of st_nlink on 64bit

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:

Anton Blanchard 0fd7bee1e9 powerpc: Fix size of st_nlink on 64bit
commit e57f93cc53 (powerpc: get rid of nlink_t uses, switch to
explicitly-sized type) changed the size of st_nlink on ppc64 from
a long to a short, resulting in boot failures.
