2010-08-10xen: drop xen_sched_clock in favour of using plain wallclock timeJeremy Fitzhardinge
commit 8a22b9996b001c88f2bfb54c6de6a05fc39e177a upstream. xen_sched_clock only counts unstolen time. In principle this should be useful to the Linux scheduler so that it knows how much time a process actually consumed. But in practice this doesn't work very well as the scheduler expects the sched_clock time to be synchronized between cpus. It also uses sched_clock to measure the time a task spends sleeping, in which case "unstolen time" isn't meaningful. So just use plain xen_clocksource_read to return wallclock nanoseconds for sched_clock.

2010-08-02ACPI: Unconditionally set SCI_EN on resumeMatthew Garrett
commit b6dacf63e9fb2e7a1369843d6cef332f76fca6a3 upstream. The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume. Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with this behaviour.

2010-08-02ACPI: skip checking BM_STS if the BIOS doesn't ask for itLen Brown
commit 718be4aaf3613cf7c2d097f925abc3d3553c0605 upstream. It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3 that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not. Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS. If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS, it can retard or completely prevent entry into deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat: http://userweb.kernel.org/~lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/turbostat/ ref: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI Interface Specification table 4 "_CST FFH GAS Field Encoding" Bit 1: Set to 1 if OSPM should use Bus Master avoidance for this C-state https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15886 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit 087b255a2b43f417af83cb44e0bb02507f36b7fe upstream. My platform makes use of the null_legacy_pic choice and oopses when doing a shutdown as the shutdown code goes through all the registered sysdevs and calls their shutdown method which in my case poke on a non-existing i8259. Imho the i8259 specific sysdev should only be registered if the i8259 is actually there. Do not register the sysdev function when the null_legacy_pic is used so that the i8259 resume, suspend and shutdown functions are not called.

2010-08-02x86: Fix x2apic preenabled system with kexecYinghai Lu
commit fd19dce7ac07973f700b0f13fb7f94b951414a4c upstream. Found one x2apic system kexec loop test failed when CONFIG_NMI_WATCHDOG=y (old) or CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y (current tip) first kernel can kexec second kernel, but second kernel can not kexec third one. it can be duplicated on another system with BIOS preenabled x2apic. First kernel can not kexec second kernel. It turns out, when kernel boot with pre-enabled x2apic, it will not execute disable_local_APIC on shutdown path. when init_apic_mappings() is called in setup_arch, it will skip setting of apic_phys when x2apic_mode is set. ( x2apic_mode is much early check_x2apic()) Then later, disable_local_APIC() will bail out early because !apic_phys. So check !x2apic_mode in x2apic_mode in disable_local_APIC with !apic_phys. another solution could be updating init_apic_mappings() to set apic_phys even for preenabled x2apic system. Actually even for x2apic system, that lapic address is mapped already in early stage. BTW: is there any x2apic preenabled system with apicid of boot cpu > 255?

2010-08-02x86: Send a SIGTRAP for user icebp trapsFrederic Weisbecker
commit a1e80fafc9f0742a1776a0490258cb64912411b0 upstream. Before we had a generic breakpoint layer, x86 used to send a sigtrap for any debug event that happened in userspace, except if it was caused by lazy dr7 switches. Currently we only send such signal for single step or breakpoint events. However, there are three other kind of debug exceptions: - debug register access detected: trigger an exception if the next instruction touches the debug registers. We don't use it. - task switch, but we don't use tss. - icebp/int01 trap. This instruction (0xf1) is undocumented and generates an int 1 exception. Unlike single step through TF flag, it doesn't set the single step origin of the exception in dr6. icebp then used to be reported in userspace using trap signals but this have been incidentally broken with the new breakpoint code. Reenable this. Since this is the only debug event that doesn't set anything in dr6, this is all we have to check. This fixes a regression in Wine where World Of Warcraft got broken as it uses this for software protection checks purposes. And probably other apps do.

2010-07-05x86, paravirt: Add a global synchronization point for pvclockGlauber Costa
In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c, I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems. (to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation pvclock is based on. This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags, specially on multi-socket ones. Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion. Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen, but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism. A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue, however, that locking is not necessary. We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return, the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to. OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps. After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

2010-07-05KVM: SVM: Fix wrong interrupt injection in enable_irq_windowsJoerg Roedel
The nested_svm_intr() function does not execute the vmexit anymore. Therefore we may still be in the nested state after that function ran. This patch changes the nested_svm_intr() function to return wether the irq window could be enabled.

2010-07-05KVM: SVM: Don't sync nested cr8 to lapic and backJoerg Roedel
This patch makes syncing of the guest tpr to the lapic conditional on !nested. Otherwise a nested guest using the TPR could freeze the guest. Another important change this patch introduces is that the cr8 intercept bits are no longer ORed at vmrun emulation if the guest sets VINTR_MASKING in its VMCB. The reason is that nested cr8 accesses need alway be handled by the nested hypervisor because they change the shadow version of the tpr.

2010-07-05xen: ensure timer tick is resumed even on CPU driving the resumeIan Campbell
commit cd52e17ea8278f8449b6174a8e5ed439a2e44ffb upstream. The core suspend/resume code is run from stop_machine on CPU0 but parts of the suspend/resume machinery (including xen_arch_resume) are run on whichever CPU happened to schedule the xenwatch kernel thread. As part of the non-core resume code xen_arch_resume is called in order to restart the timer tick on non-boot processors. The boot processor itself is taken care of by core timekeeping code. xen_arch_resume uses smp_call_function which does not call the given function on the current processor. This means that we can end up with one CPU not receiving timer ticks if the xenwatch thread happened to be scheduled on CPU > 0. Use on_each_cpu instead of smp_call_function to ensure the timer tick is resumed everywhere.

2010-07-05oprofile/x86: fix uninitialized counter usage during cpu hotplugRobert Richter
commit 2623a1d55a6260c855e1f6d1895900b50b40a896 upstream. This fixes a NULL pointer dereference that is triggered when taking a cpu offline after oprofile was initialized, e.g.: $ opcontrol --init $ opcontrol --start-daemon $ opcontrol --shutdown $ opcontrol --deinit $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online See the crash dump below. Though the counter has been disabled the cpu notifier is still active and trying to use already freed counter data. This fix is for linux-stable. To proper fix this, the hotplug code must be rewritten. Thus I will leave a WARN_ON_ONCE() message with this patch.

Do not blindly access extended configuration space unless we actively know we're on a Moorestown platform. The fixed-size BAR capability lives in the extended configuration space, and thus is not applicable if the configuration space isn't appropriately sized. This fixes booting certain VMware configurations with CONFIG_MRST=y. Moorestown will add a fake PCI-X 266 capability to advertise the presence of extended configuration space.

Currently, this fixes a boot crash on top of Xen. In the future this will become an issue on KVM as well. Check if northbridge devices are present and do not enable the feature if there are none.
