commit d3f7eae182b04997be19343a23f7009170f4f7a5 upstream
The Averatec 2370 and some other Turion laptop BIOS seems to program the
ENABLE_C1E MSR inconsistently between cores. This confuses the lapic
use heuristics because when C1E is enabled anywhere it seems to affect
the complete chip.
Use a global flag instead of a per cpu flag to handle this.
If any CPU has C1E enabled disabled lapic use.
Thanks to Cal Peake for debugging.

Found this looping Ubuntu installs with VMI.
If unlucky enough to hit a vmalloc sync fault during a lazy mode
operation (from an IRQ handler for a module which was not yet populated
in current page directory, or from inside copy_one_pte, which touches
swap_map, and hit in an unused 4M region), the required PDE update would
never get flushed, causing an infinite page fault loop.
This bug affects any paravirt-ops backend which uses lazy updates, I
believe that makes it a bug in Xen, VMI and lguest. It only happens on
LOWMEM kernels.
Touching vmalloc memory in the middle of a lazy mode update can generate a
kernel PDE update, which must be flushed immediately. The fix is to leave
lazy mode when doing a vmalloc sync.

The new percpu code has apparently broken the doublefault handler
when CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is set. Doublefault is handled by
a hardware task, making the check
SPIN_BUG_ON(lock->owner == current, lock, "recursion");
fault because it uses the FS register to access the percpu data
for current, and that register is zero in the new TSS. (The trace
I saw was on 2.6.20 where it was GS, but it looks like this will
still happen with FS on 2.6.22.)
Initializing FS in the doublefault_tss should fix it.
AK: Also fix broken ptr_ok() and turn printks into KERN_EMERG
AK: And add a PANIC prefix to make clear the system will hang
AK: (e.g. x86-64 will recover)

Revert 7e92b4fc345f5b6f57585fbe5ffdb0f24d7c9b26. It broke Sébastien Dugué's
machine and Jeff said (persuasively)
This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of
breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS."
It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO. Serial ports are something
that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game. My new Intel
platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of
messing with serial port probing even more... because... just wait a year,
and your box won't have a serial port either! :)
I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver),
but the probe change seems questionable. That's sorta analagous to
rewriting the floppy driver probe routine. Sure you could do it... but why
risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again?
It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for
something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade.
Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

Processors synchronization in set_mtrr requires the .gate field to be set
after .count field is properly initialized. Without an explicit barrier,
the compiler was reordering those memory stores. That was sometimes
causing a processor (in ipi_handler) to see the .gate change and decrement
.count before the latter is set by set_mtrr() (which then hangs in a
infinite loop with irqs disabled).

The commit 635cf99a80f4ebee59d70eb64bb85ce829e4591f introduced a
regression. Executing a ptrace single step after certain int80
accesses will infinitely loop and never advance the PC.
The TIF_SINGLESTEP check should be done on the return from the syscall
and not before it.
I loops on each single step on the pop right after the int80 which writes out
to the console. At that point you can issue as many single steps as you want
and it will not advance any further.
The test case is below:

Matthias Lenk reports that the PCI subsystem would move the HPET on
SB400/SB600-based systems, where the HPET is in BAR1 of the SMbus
controller.
The reason? The ACPI layer registered the PCI MMIO range as being busy
too early, before PCI enumeration had happened, causing the PCI layer to
decide that it should relocate the resources somewhere else.
Firmware resources should be marked busy _after_ the PCI enumeration and
probing has happened, not before.
Remove the too-early reservation, we'll fix it up to do it properly
later. In the meantime, this solves the regression.

Commit 9215da33209b861b01c51382254b178a3fe92a30 "fixed" the MTRR range
check to not allow any MTRR's under the 1MB mark (since that's where the
fixed MTRR's are active).
However, that was totally bogus, since it's normal (and almost required)
to have a large variable MTRR that starts at 0, and covers some large
percentage of the whole RAM, and then using the fixed MTRR's to override
that large MTRR to handle the special ISA hole in the 640k-1M region.
The old check was bogus too (checking that no variable MTRR is used that
is entirely under the 1MB range), but at least it wasn't actively
detrimental, because no sane situation would ever trigger such MTRR
usage in the first place.
That said, the whole notion of not allowing variable MTRR's in the low
1MB is just stupid, so rather than revert the commit, this just removes
the whole sad and unnecessary check entirely.

Register %ebx serves as the "global offset table base register" for
position-independent code. For absolute code, %ebx serves as a local
register and has no specified role in the function calling sequence. In
either case, a function must preserve the register value for the caller.
acpi_copy_wakeup_routine overrides %ebx without saving it, this may corrupt
the called data.
Kevin found that most time the value of Sx is saved in %esi, however
sometimes compiler also uses %ebx. When this happens, suspends fails since
sleep value in ebx is changed by acpi_copy_wakeup_routine.
The same funtion in X86_64 doesn't have this problem.

It is only used for PAE kernels in set_64bit.
The problem is that due to a old Windows bug many CPUs need magic MSRs
to enable CMPXCHG64, and we can't do that nicely early enough before
it is potentially used.
But since we only need it in PAE kernels so only force the checking
for CMPXCHG65 with PAE.

- Always flush in the i386 case, not only when there are deferred pages.
These are both brute-force inefficient fixes, to be improved

needed (some dead code added), but it is more similar to the x86-64 version
now and the dead code will be used soon.

This is a minor fix, but what is currently there is essentially wrong.
In do_page_fault, if the faulting address from user code happens to be
in kernel address space (int *p = (int*)-1; p = 0xbed;) then the
do_page_fault handler will jump over the local_irq_enable with the
goto bad_area_nosemaphore;
But the first line there sees this is user code and goes through the
process of sending a signal to send SIGSEGV to the user task. This whole
time interrupts are disabled and the task can not be preempted by a
higher priority task.
This patch always enables interrupts in the user path of the
bad_area_nosemaphore.

cpu's cpu_msrs is setup to point to cpu 0's, which causes free_msrs to free
cpu 0's pointers for_each_possible_cpu. Rather than copy the pointers, do
a deep copy instead.
[acme@redhat.com: allocate_msrs() was using for_each_online_cpu()]

Wolfgang gets:
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 0000:00:04.0
PCI: Error while updating region 0000:00:04.0/0 (a8008000 != fec08000)
Note that the BAR seems to have high address bits hardwired to fec00000.
And device 0000:00:04.0 is
00:04.0 System peripheral: Siemens Nixdorf AG FSC Multiprocessor Interrupt Controller (rev 02)
I'd guess that when we try to reassign this resource, PCI interrupts might
just stop working. This could explain SCSI timeouts and other weird things.

Jarek Poplawski noted that boot_cpu_data.x86_cache_size is signed int
and can be < 0 too.
In fact we test for it. Except we assigned it to an unsigned value..

WARNING: arch/i386/mach-generic/built-in.o(.data+0xc4): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: (between 'apic_bigsmp' and 'cpu.4905')
This appears to be resolvable by removing all the __init and __initdata
qualifiers from arch/i386/mach-generic/bigsmp.c

cr4 is a 32-bit register, so casting the mask to an unsigned char is wrong,
as it clears more than the PGE bit.

- boot/setup.S did not print "PANIC: CPU too old for this kernel"
( not visible, also the message did not match )
- I add "# missed before: set ds"
=> somebody should check if I am right with the way to set.
=> seems to be a generic error in setup.S not to set "ds" for error messages.
AK: extracted patch out of other changes
AK: also couldn't find any other case where ds is wrong

It reports machine check capability in CPUID, but doesn't actually
implement all the necessary MSRs of the standard Intel machine
check architecture.
This fixes a boot failure on K6s recently introduced.

Only try to allocate MSRs once instead of for every CPU.
This assumes the MSRs are the same on all CPUs which is currently
true. P4-HT is a special case for different SMT threads, but the code
always saves/restores all MSRs so it works identical.

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
getting them indirectly
Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
