git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu Pull two percpu fixes from Tejun Heo: "One adds missing KERN_CONT on split printk()s and the other makes the percpu allocator avoid using PMD_SIZE as atom_size on x86_32. Using PMD_SIZE led to vmalloc area exhaustion on certain configurations (x86_32 android) and the only cost of using PAGE_SIZE instead is static percpu area not being aligned to large page mapping." * 'for-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: percpu, x86: don't use PMD_SIZE as embedded atom_size on 32bit percpu: use KERN_CONT in pcpu_dump_alloc_info()
2012-05-08percpu, x86: don't use PMD_SIZE as embedded atom_size on 32bitTejun Heo
With the embed percpu first chunk allocator, x86 uses either PAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE for atom_size. PMD_SIZE is used when CPU supports PSE so that percpu areas are aligned to PMD mappings and possibly allow using PMD mappings in vmalloc areas in the future. Using larger atom_size doesn't waste actual memory; however, it does require larger vmalloc space allocation later on for !first chunks. With reasonably sized vmalloc area, PMD_SIZE shouldn't be a problem but x86_32 at this point is anything but reasonable in terms of address space and using larger atom_size reportedly leads to frequent percpu allocation failures on certain setups. As there is no reason to not use PMD_SIZE on x86_64 as vmalloc space is aplenty and most x86_64 configurations support PSE, fix the issue by always using PMD_SIZE on x86_64 and PAGE_SIZE on x86_32. v2: drop cpu_has_pse test and make x86_64 always use PMD_SIZE and x86_32 PAGE_SIZE as suggested by hpa.

2012-05-06KVM: Do not take reference to mm during async #PFGleb Natapov
It turned to be totally unneeded. The reason the code was introduced is so that KVM can prefault swapped in page, but prefault can fail even if mm is pinned since page table can change anyway. KVM handles this situation correctly though and does not inject spurious page faults.

2012-04-27x86/amd: Re-enable CPU topology extensions in case BIOS has disabled itAndreas Herrmann
BIOS will switch off the corresponding feature flag on family 15h models 10h-1fh non-desktop CPUs. The topology extension CPUID leafs are required to detect which cores belong to the same compute unit. (thread siblings mask is set accordingly and also correct information about L1i and L2 cache sharing depends on this). W/o this patch we wouldn't see which cores belong to the same compute unit and also cache sharing information for L1i and L2 would be incorrect on such systems.

2012-04-23x86, acpi: Call acpi_enter_sleep_state via an asmlinkage C function from ↵Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
assembler With commit a2ef5c4fd44ce3922435139393b89f2cce47f576 "ACPI: Move module parameter gts and bfs to sleep.c" the wake_sleep_flags is required when calling acpi_enter_sleep_state. The assembler code in wakeup_*.S did not do that. One solution is to call it from assembler and stick the wake_sleep_flags on the stack (for 32-bit) or in %esi (for 64-bit). hpa and rafael both suggested however to create a wrapper function to call acpi_enter_sleep_state and call said wrapper function ("acpi_enter_s3") from assembler. For 32-bit, the acpi_enter_s3 ends up looking as so: push %ebp mov %esp,%ebp sub $0x8,%esp movzbl 0xc1809314,%eax [wake_sleep_flags] movl $0x3,(%esp) mov %eax,0x4(%esp) call 0xc12d1fa0 <acpi_enter_sleep_state> leave ret And 64-bit: movzbl 0x9afde1(%rip),%esi [wake_sleep_flags] push %rbp mov $0x3,%edi mov %rsp,%rbp callq 0xffffffff812e9800 <acpi_enter_sleep_state> leaveq retq Reviewed-by: H.

With commit a2ef5c4fd44ce3922435139393b89f2cce47f576 "ACPI: Move module parameter gts and bfs to sleep.c" the wake_sleep_flags is required when calling acpi_enter_sleep_state, which means that if there are functions outside the sleep.c code they can't get the wake_sleep_flags values.

2012-04-18x86, apic: APIC code touches invalid MSR on P5 class machinesBryan O'Donoghue
Current APIC code assumes MSR_IA32_APICBASE is present for all systems. Pentium Classic P5 and friends didn't have this MSR. MSR_IA32_APICBASE was introduced as an architectural MSR by Intel @ P6. Code paths that can touch this MSR invalidly are when vendor == Intel && cpu-family == 5 and APIC bit is set in CPUID - or when you simply pass lapic on the kernel command line, on a P5. The below patch stops Linux incorrectly interfering with the MSR_IA32_APICBASE for P5 class machines. Other code paths exist that touch the MSR - however those paths are not currently reachable for a conformant P5.

2012-04-16i387: ptrace breaks the lazy-fpu-restore logicOleg Nesterov
Starting from 7e16838d "i387: support lazy restore of FPU state" we assume that fpu_owner_task doesn't need restore_fpu_checking() on the context switch, its FPU state should match what we already have in the FPU on this CPU. However, debugger can change the tracee's FPU state, in this case we should reset fpu.last_cpu to ensure fpu_lazy_restore() can't return true. Change init_fpu() to do this, it is called by user_regset->set() methods.

2012-04-16x86/platform: Remove incorrect error message in x86_default_fixup_cpu_id()Andreas Herrmann
It's only called from amd.c:srat_detect_node(). The introduced condition for calling the fixup code is true for all AMD multi-node processors, e.g. Magny-Cours and Interlagos. There we have 2 NUMA nodes on one socket. Thus there are cores having different numa-node-id but with equal phys_proc_id. There is no point to print error messages in such a situation. The confusing/misleading error message was introduced with commit 64be4c1c2428e148de6081af235e2418e6a66dda ("x86: Add x86_init platform override to fix up NUMA core numbering"). Remove the default fixup function (especially the error message) and replace it by a NULL pointer check, move the Numascale-specific condition for calling the fixup into the fixup-function itself and slightly adapt the comment.

git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski: "Short summary for the whole series: A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping design and its implementations for various architectures. There exist more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers: currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent, dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent. For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be interchanged. For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones (like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver performance. Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be easily shared between different architectures. The provided patches unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already existing dma attributes concept. The thread with more references is available here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support. More information is available in the following thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819 More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee445d "dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").

2012-03-30ACPI: Fix use-after-free in acpi_map_lsapicPetr Vandrovec
When processor is being hot-added to the system, acpi_map_lsapic invokes ACPI _MAT method to find APIC ID and flags, verifies that returned structure is indeed ACPI's local APIC structure, and that flags contain MADT_ENABLED bit. Then saves APIC ID, frees structure - and accesses structure when computing arguments for acpi_register_lapic call. Which sometime leads to acpi_register_lapic call being made with second argument zero, failing to bring processor online with error 'Unable to map lapic to logical cpu number'. As lapic->lapic_flags & ACPI_MADT_ENABLED was already confirmed to be non-zero few lines above, we can just pass unconditional ACPI_MADT_ENABLED to the acpi_register_lapic.

2012-03-30x86: Remove the ancient and deprecated disable_hlt() and enable_hlt() facilityLen Brown
The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the 32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially it turned off the use of HLT. This workaround was commented in the code as: "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations" "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA wreckage. It should be safe to remove." H. Peter Anvin additionally adds: "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind, including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT caused some of these systems to fail. They were by far in the minority even back then." Alan Cox further says: "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during DMA tended to go astray. Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520 fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of use." So, let's finally drop this.

2012-03-29x86,kgdb: Fix DEBUG_RODATA limitation using text_poke()Jason Wessel
There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all the way back to 2.6.36. The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly. The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function. The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break point removal routine will get called later on.

2012-03-29x86: Preserve lazy irq disable semantics in fixup_irqs()Liu, Chuansheng
The default irq_disable() sematics are to mark the interrupt disabled, but keep it unmasked. If the interrupt is delivered while marked disabled, the low level interrupt handler masks it and marks it pending. This is important for detecting wakeup interrupts during suspend and for edge type interrupts to avoid losing interrupts. fixup_irqs() moves the interrupts away from an offlined cpu. For certain interrupt types it needs to mask the interrupt line before changing the affinity. After affinity has changed the interrupt line is unmasked again, but only if it is not marked disabled. This breaks the lazy irq disable semantics and causes problems in suspend as the interrupt can be lost or wakeup functionality is broken. Check irqd_irq_masked() instead of irqd_irq_disabled() because irqd_irq_masked() is only set, when the core code actually masked the interrupt line. If it's not set, we unmask the interrupt and let the lazy irq disable logic deal with an eventually incoming interrupt.

2012-03-28kdump x86: fix total mem size calculation for reservationDave Young
crashkernel reservation need know the total memory size. Current get_total_mem simply use max_pfn - min_low_pfn. It is wrong because it will including memory holes in the middle. Especially for kvm guest with memory > 0xe0000000, there's below in qemu code: qemu split memory as below: if (ram_size >= 0xe0000000 ) { above_4g_mem_size = ram_size - 0xe0000000; below_4g_mem_size = 0xe0000000; } else { below_4g_mem_size = ram_size; } So for 4G mem guest, seabios will insert a 512M usable region beyond of 4G. Thus in above case max_pfn - min_low_pfn will be more than original memsize. Fixing this issue by using memblock_phys_mem_size() to get the total memsize.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.
