Seiji Aguchi d34603b07c x86, trace: Add page fault tracepoints
This patch introduces page fault tracepoints to x86 architecture
by switching IDT.

  Two events, for user and kernel spaces, are introduced at the beginning
  of page fault handler for tracing.

  - User space event
    There is a request of page fault event for user space as below.

    https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1368079520-11015-2-git-send-email-fdeslaur+()+gmail+!+com
    https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1368079520-11015-1-git-send-email-fdeslaur+()+gmail+!+com

  - Kernel space event:
    When we measure an overhead in kernel space for investigating performance
    issues, we can check if it comes from the page fault events.

Tejun Heo 24aa07882b memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range() with generic ones
Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of
memblock reserve/free functions are simple wrappers around the generic
versions - memblock_reserve/free().

This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the
generic versions and replaces x86 specific ones and kills them.
arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and arch/x86/mm/memblock.c are empty
after this change and removed.

Tejun Heo 5acd91ab83 x86-32, NUMA: Replace srat_32.c with srat.c
SRAT support implementation in srat_32.c and srat.c are generally
similar; however, there are some differences.

First of all, 64bit implementation supports more types of SRAT
entries.  64bit supports x2apic, affinity, memory and SLIT.  32bit
only supports processor and memory.

Most other differences stem from different initialization protocols
employed by 64bit and 32bit NUMA init paths.

On 64bit,

* Mappings among PXM, node and apicid are directly done in each SRAT
  entry callback.

* Memory affinity information is passed to numa_add_memblk() which
  takes care of all interfacing with NUMA init.

* Doesn't directly initialize NUMA configurations.  All the
  information is recorded in numa_nodes_parsed and memblks.

On 32bit,

* Checks numa_off.

* Things go through one more level of indirection via private tables
  but eventually end up initializing the same mappings.

* node_start/end_pfn[] are initialized and
  memblock_x86_register_active_regions() is called for each memory
  chunk.

* node_set_online() is called for each online node.

* sort_node_map() is called.

There are also other minor differences in sanity checking and messages
but taking 64bit version should be good enough.

This patch drops the 32bit specific implementation and makes the 64bit
implementation common for both 32 and 64bit.

The init protocol differences are dealt with in two places - the
numa_add_memblk() shim added in the previous patch and new temporary
numa_32.c:get_memcfg_from_srat() which wraps invocation of
x86_acpi_numa_init().

The shim numa_add_memblk() handles the folowings.

* node_start/end_pfn[] initialization.

* node_set_online() for memory nodes.

* Invocation of memblock_x86_register_active_regions().

The shim get_memcfg_from_srat() handles the followings.

* numa_off check.

* node_set_online() for CPU nodes.

* sort_node_map() invocation.

* Clearing of numa_nodes_parsed and active_ranges on failure.

The shims are temporary and will be removed as the generic NUMA init
path in 32bit is replaced with 64bit one.

Pallipadi, Venkatesh 9e41a49aab x86, pat: Migrate to rbtree only backend for pat memtype management
Move pat backend to fully rbtree based implementation from the existing
rbtree and linked list hybrid.

New rbtree based solution uses interval trees (augmented rbtrees) in
order to store the PAT ranges. The new code seprates out the pat backend
to pat_rbtree.c file, making is cleaner. The change also makes the PAT
lookup, reserve and free operations more optimal, as we don't have to
traverse linear linked list of few tens of entries in normal case.

x86-64 assumes NX is available by default, so we need to
explicitly check for it before using NX.  Some first-generation

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 577eebeae3 xen: make -fstack-protector work under Xen
-fstack-protector uses a special per-cpu "stack canary" value.
gcc generates special code in each function to test the canary to make
sure that the function's stack hasn't been overrun.

On x86-64, this is simply an offset of %gs, which is the usual per-cpu
base segment register, so setting it up simply requires loading %gs's
base as normal.

On i386, the stack protector segment is %gs (rather than the usual kernel
percpu %fs segment register).  This requires setting up the full kernel
GDT and then loading %gs accordingly.  We also need to make sure %gs is
initialized when bringing up secondary cpus too.

To keep things consistent, we do the full GDT/segment register setup on
both architectures.

Because we need to avoid -fstack-protected code before setting up the GDT
and because there's no way to disable it on a per-function basis, several
files need to have stack-protector inhibited.

[ Impact: allow Xen booting with stack-protector enabled ]

Vegard Nossum dfec072ecd kmemcheck: add the kmemcheck core
General description: kmemcheck is a patch to the linux kernel that
detects use of uninitialized memory. It does this by trapping every
read and write to memory that was allocated dynamically (e.g. using
kmalloc()). If a memory address is read that has not previously been
written to, a message is printed to the kernel log.

Thanks to Andi Kleen for the set_memory_4k() solution.

Ingo Molnar 3e5095d152 x86: replace CONFIG_X86_SMP with CONFIG_SMP
The x86/Voyager subarch used to have this distinction between
 'x86 SMP support' and 'Voyager SMP support':

 config X86_SMP
	bool
	depends on SMP && ((X86_32 && !X86_VOYAGER) || X86_64)

This is a pointless distinction - Voyager can (and already does) use
smp_ops to implement various SMP quirks it has - and it can be extended
more to cover all the specialities of Voyager.

Nick Piggin 8174c430e4 x86: lockless get_user_pages_fast()
Implement get_user_pages_fast without locking in the fastpath on x86.

Do an optimistic lockless pagetable walk, without taking mmap_sem or any
page table locks or even mmap_sem.  Page table existence is guaranteed by
turning interrupts off (combined with the fact that we're always looking
up the current mm, means we can do the lockless page table walk within the
constraints of the TLB shootdown design).  Basically we can do this
lockless pagetable walk in a similar manner to the way the CPU's pagetable
walker does not have to take any locks to find present ptes.

This patch (combined with the subsequent ones to convert direct IO to use
it) was found to give about 10% performance improvement on a 2 socket 8
core Intel Xeon system running an OLTP workload on DB2 v9.5

 "To test the effects of the patch, an OLTP workload was run on an IBM
  x3850 M2 server with 2 processors (quad-core Intel Xeon processors at
  2.93 GHz) using IBM DB2 v9.5 running Linux 2.6.24rc7 kernel.  Comparing
  runs with and without the patch resulted in an overall performance
  benefit of ~9.8%.  Correspondingly, oprofiles showed that samples from
  __up_read and __down_read routines that is seen during thread contention
  for system resources was reduced from 2.8% down to .05%.  Monitoring the
  /proc/vmstat output from the patched run showed that the counter for
  fast_gup contained a very high number while the fast_gup_slow value was
  zero."

(fast_gup is the old name for get_user_pages_fast, fast_gup_slow is a
counter we had for the number of times the slowpath was invoked).

The main reason for the improvement is that DB2 has multiple threads each
issuing direct-IO.  Direct-IO uses get_user_pages, and thus the threads
contend the mmap_sem cacheline, and can also contend on page table locks.

I would anticipate larger performance gains on larger systems, however I
think DB2 uses an adaptive mix of threads and processes, so it could be
that thread contention remains pretty constant as machine size increases.
In which case, we stuck with "only" a 10% gain.

The downside of using get_user_pages_fast is that if there is not a pte
with the correct permissions for the access, we end up falling back to
get_user_pages and so the get_user_pages_fast is a bit of extra work.
However this should not be the common case in most performance critical
code.

venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com 2e5d9c857d x86: PAT infrastructure patch
Sets up pat_init() infrastructure.

PAT MSR has following setting.
	PAT
	|PCD
	||PWT
	|||
	000 WB		_PAGE_CACHE_WB
	001 WC		_PAGE_CACHE_WC
	010 UC-		_PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS
	011 UC		_PAGE_CACHE_UC

We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC.
UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem
users(X).

reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free
mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and
not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result
of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT.

pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr
are same.
