commit fe8b868eccb9f85a0e231e35f0abac5b39bac801 upstream.
Impact: remove incorrect WARN_ON(1)
Gets rid of dmesg spam created during physical memory hot-add which
will very likely confuse users. The change removes what appears to
be debugging code which I assume was unintentionally included in:

commit 1de5b0854623d30d01d72cd4ea323eb5f39d1f16 upstream.
It is possible to flood the console with call traces if the WARN_ON
condition is true because of the frequency with which this function is
called.

commit 35af28219e684a36cc8b1ff456c370ce22be157d upstream.
Impact: make warning message disappear - functionality unchanged
Problems with bogus IRQ0 override of those laptops should be fixed
with commits
x86: SB600: skip IRQ0 override if it is not routed to INT2 of IOAPIC
x86: SB450: skip IRQ0 override if it is not routed to INT2 of IOAPIC
that introduce early-quirks based on chipset configuration.
For further information, see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11516
Instead of removing the related dmi-quirks completely we'd like to
keep them for (at least) one kernel version -- to double-check whether
the early-quirks really took effect. But the dmi-quirks need to be
called after early-quirks are executed. With this patch calling
sequence for dmi-quriks is changed as follows:
acpi_boot_table_init() (dmi-quirks)
...
early_quirks() (detect bogus IRQ0 override)
...
acpi_boot_init() (late dmi-quirks and setup IO APIC)
Note: Plan is to remove the "late dmi-quirks" with next kernel version.

commit 26adcfbf00e0726b4469070aa2f530dcf963f484 upstream.
On some more HP laptops BIOS reports an IRQ0 override
but the SB600 chipset is configured such that timer
interrupts go to INT0 of IOAPIC.
Check IRQ0 routing and if it is routed to INT0 of IOAPIC skip the
timer override.

backport of commit 97a70e548bd97d5a46ae9d44f24aafcc013fd701 to the 2.6.27 kernel.
The NUMA code on x86_32 creates special memory mapping that allows
each node's pgdat to be located in this node's memory. For this
purpose it allocates a memory area at the end of each node's memory
and maps this area so that it is accessible with virtual addresses
belonging to low memory. As a result, if there is high memory,
these NUMA-allocated areas are physically located in high memory,
although they are mapped to low memory addresses.
Our hibernation code does not take that into account and for this
reason hibernation fails on all x86_32 systems with CONFIG_NUMA=y and
with high memory present. Fix this by adding a special mapping for
the NUMA-allocated memory areas to the temporary page tables created
during the last phase of resume.

commit 5dc64a3442b98eaa0e3730c35fcf00cf962a93e7 upstream.
When reserving space for the hypervisor the Xen paravirt backend adds
an extra two pages (this was carried forward from the 2.6.18-xen tree
which had them "for safety"). Depending on various CONFIG options this
can cause the boot time fixmaps to span multiple PMDs which is not
supported and triggers a WARN in early_ioremap_init().
This was exposed by 2216d199b1430d1c0affb1498a9ebdbd9c0de439 which
moved the dmi table parsing earlier.
x86: fix CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K=y
The bad_bios_dmi_table() quirk never triggered because we do DMI setup
too late. Move it a bit earlier.
There is no real reason to reserve these two extra pages and the
fixmap already incorporates FIX_HOLE which serves the same
purpose. None of the other callers of reserve_top_address do this.

commit a266d9f1253a38ec2d5655ebcd6846298b0554f4 upstream.
A workaround for AMD CPU family 11h erratum 311 might cause that the
P-state Status Register shows a "current P-state" which is larger than
the "current P-state limit" in P-state Current Limit Register. For the
wrong P-state value there is no ACPI _PSS object defined and
powernow-k8/cpufreq can't determine the proper CPU frequency for that
state.
As a consequence this can cause a panic during boot (potentially with
all recent kernel versions -- at least I have reproduced it with
various 2.6.27 kernels and with the current .28 series), as an
example:
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82 processors (2 \

powernow-k8: 0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz)

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
In short, aftereffect of the wrong P-state is that
cpufreq_stats_update() uses "-1" as index for some array in
cpufreq_stats_update (unsigned int cpu)
{
...
if (stat->time_in_state)
stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index] =
cputime64_add(stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index],
cputime_sub(cur_time, stat->last_time));
...
}
Fortunately, the wrong P-state value is returned only if the core is
in P-state 0. This fix solves the problem by detecting the
out-of-range P-state, ignoring it, and using "0" instead.

commit 0af40a4b1050c050e62eb1dc30b82d5ab22bf221 upstream.
Impact: widen the reach of the low-memory-protect DMI quirk
Phoenix BIOSes variously identify their vendor as "Phoenix Technologies,
LTD" or "Phoenix Technologies LTD" (without the comma.)
This patch makes the identification string in the bad_bios_dmi_table
more general (following a suggestion by Ingo Molnar), so that both
versions are handled.
Again, the patched file compiles cleanly and the patch has been tested
successfully on my machine.

commit fc38151947477596aa27df6c4306ad6008dc6711 upstream.
This bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11237
Documents a wide range of systems where the BIOS utilizes the first
64K of physical memory during suspend/resume and other hardware events.
Currently we reserve this memory on all AMI and Phoenix BIOS systems.
Life is too short to hunt subtle memory corruption problems like this,
so we try to be robust by default.
Still, allow this to be overriden: allow users who want that first 64K
of memory to be available to the kernel disable the quirk, via
CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K=n.
Also, allow the early reservation to overlap with other
early reservations.

commit 1e22436eba84edfec9c25e5a25d09062c4f91ca9 upstream
there's multiple reports about suspend/resume related low memory
corruption in this bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11237
the common pattern is that the corruption is caused by the BIOS,
and that it affects some portion of the first 64K of physical RAM.
So add a DMI quirk
This will waste 64K RAM on 'good' systems too, but without knowing
the exact nature of this BIOS memory corruption this is the safest
approach.
This might as well solve a wide range of suspend/resume breakages
under Linux.

commit 5649b7c30316a51792808422ac03ee825d26aa5e upstream
Alan Jenkins and Andy Wettstein reported a suspend/resume memory
corruption bug and extensively documented it here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11237
The bug is that the BIOS overwrites 1K of memory at 0xc000 physical,
without registering it in e820 as reserved or giving the kernel any
idea about this.
Detect AMI BIOSen and reserve that 1K.
We paint this bug around with a very broad brush (reserving that 1K on all
AMI BIOS systems), as the bug was extremely hard to find and needed several
weeks and lots of debugging and patching.
The bug was found via the CONFIG_X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION=y debug feature,
if similar bugs are suspected then this feature can be enabled on other
systems as well to scan low memory for corrupted memory.

commit 758a7f7bb86b520aadc484f23da85e547b3bf3d8 upstream
x86: register a platform RTC device if PNP doesn't describe it
Most if not all x86 platforms have an RTC device, but sometimes the RTC
is not exposed as a PNP0b00/PNP0b01/PNP0b02 device in PNPBIOS or ACPI:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11580
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451188
It's best if we can discover the RTC via PNP because then we know
which flavor of device it is, where it lives, and which IRQ it uses.
But if we can't, we should register a platform device using the
compiled-in RTC_PORT/RTC_IRQ resource assumptions.

commit 9e41bff2708e420e61e6b89a54c15232857069b1 upstream
Impact: allow /dev/mem mmaps on non-PAT CPUs/platforms
Fix mmap to /dev/mem when CONFIG_X86_PAT is off and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is
off
mmap to /dev/mem on kernel memory has been failing since the
introduction of PAT (CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n case). Seems like
the check to avoid cache aliasing with PAT is kicking in even
when PAT is disabled. The bug seems to have crept in 2.6.26.
This patch makes sure that the mmap to regular
kernel memory succeeds if CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n and
PAT is disabled, and the checks to avoid cache aliasing
still happens if PAT is enabled.

commit 3038edabf48f01421c621cb77a712b446d3a5d67 upstream
x86 ACPI: Fix breakage of resume on 64-bit UP systems with SMP kernel
We are now using per CPU GDT tables in head_64.S and the original
early_gdt_descr.address is invalidated after boot by
setup_per_cpu_areas(). This breaks resume from suspend to RAM on
x86_64 UP systems using SMP kernels, because this part of head_64.S
is also executed during the resume and the invalid GDT address
causes the system to crash. It doesn't break on 'true' SMP systems,
because early_gdt_descr.address is modified every time
native_cpu_up() runs. However, during resume it should point to the
GDT of the boot CPU rather than to another CPU's GDT.
For this reason, during suspend to RAM always make
early_gdt_descr.address point to the boot CPU's GDT.
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11568, which
is a regression from 2.6.26.

Not in upstream above 2.6.27 due to change in the way this code works
(has been fixed differently there.)
Someone from the community found out, that after repeatedly unloading
and loading a device driver that uses MSI IRQs, the system eventually
assigned the vector initially reserved for IRQ0 to the device driver.
The reason for this is, that although IRQ0 is tied to the
FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR when declaring the irq_vector table, the
corresponding bit in the used_vectors map is not set. So, if vectors are
released and assigned often enough, the vector will get assigned to
another interrupt. This happens more often with MSI interrupts as those
are exclusively using a vector.
Fix this by setting the bit for the FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR in the bitmap.

Stress-testing KVM's latest NMI support with kgdbts inside an SMP guest,
I came across spurious unhandled NMIs while running the singlestep test.
Looking closer at the code path each NMI takes when KGDB is enabled, I
noticed that kgdb_nmicallback is called twice per event: One time via
DIE_NMI_IPI notification, the second time on DIE_NMI. Removing the first
invocation cures the unhandled NMIs here.

There is a bug in the BIOSes of some HP boxes with AMD Turions which
connects IO-APIC pins with ACPI thermal trip points in such a way that
if the state of the IO-APIC is not as expected by the (buggy) BIOS, the
thermal trip points are set to insanely low values (usually all of them
become 16 degrees Celsius). As a result, thermal throttling kicks in
and knock the system down to its shoes.
Unfortunately some of the recent IO-APIC changes made the bug show up.
To prevent this from happening, blacklist machines that are known to be
affected (nx6115 and 6715b in this particular case).
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11516 listed as
a regression from 2.6.26.
On my box it was caused by:
commit 691874fa96d6349a8b60f8ea9c2bae52ece79941

and the whole story is described in this (huge) thread:

Matthew Garrett told us about that happening on the nx6125:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121396307411930&w=4
and then Maciej analysed the breakage on the basis of a DSDT from the
nx6325:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121401068718826&w=4
As far as the Dmitry's and Jason's boxes are concerned, I recognized the
symptoms and asked them to verify that the blacklisting helped.
It appears that the buggy BIOS code has been copy-pasted to the entire
range of machines, for no good reason.

Impact: segfault on build of a 32-bit relocatable kernel
When converting arch/x86/boot/compressed/relocs.c to support unlimited
sections, the computation of sym_strtab in walk_relocs() was done
incorrectly. This causes a segfault for some people when building the
relocatable 32-bit kernel.

This patch splits the x86_64 regnames enum into a 32 and 64 version to

On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
system call.
First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
exception.
On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
core. The arch specific stub should always set the
kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping. This
allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.

Impact: Functional TSC is marked unstable on AMD family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs.
This would be wrong because for those CPUs "invariant TSC" means:
"The TSC counts at the same rate in all P-states, all C states, S0,
or S1"
(See "Processor BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guides" for those CPUs.)

Impact: hang which happens across CPU offline/online on AMD C1E systems.
When a CPU goes offline then the corresponding bit in the broadcast
mask is cleared. For AMD C1E enabled CPUs we do not reenable the
broadcast when the CPU comes online again as we do not clear the
corresponding bit in the c1e_mask, which keeps track which CPUs
have been switched to broadcast already. So on those !$@#& machines
we never switch back to broadcasting after a CPU offline/online cycle.
Clear the bit when the CPU plays dead.

27-rc fails to boot up if configured to use modules.
Turns out vsmp_patch was marked __init, and vsmp_patch being the
pvops 'patch' routine for vsmp, a call to vsmp_patch just turns out
to execute a code page with series of 0xcc (POISON_FREE_INITMEM -- int3).
vsmp_patch has been marked with __init ever since pvops, however,
apply_paravirt can be called during module load causing calls to
freed memory location.
Since apply_paravirt can only be called during init/module load, make
vsmp_patch with "__init_or_module"
