2011-01-05x86: Avoid calling arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() at the same timeDongdong Deng
The spin_lock_debug/rcu_cpu_stall detector uses trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to dump cpu backtrace. Therefore it is possible that trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() could be called at the same time on different CPUs, which triggers and 'unknown reason NMI' warning. The following case illustrates the problem: CPU1 CPU2 ... CPU N trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() set "backtrace_mask" to cpu mask | generate NMI interrupts generate NMI interrupts ... \ | / \ | / The "backtrace_mask" will be cleaned by the first NMI interrupt at nmi_watchdog_tick(), then the following NMI interrupts generated by other cpus's arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() will be taken as unknown reason NMI interrupts. This patch uses a test_and_set to avoid the problem, and stop the arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() from calling to avoid dumping a double cpu backtrace info when there is already a trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() in progress.

2011-01-05x86: Fix APIC ID sizing bug on larger systems, clean up MAX_APICS confusionYinghai Lu
Found one x2apic pre-enabled system, x2apic_mode suddenly get corrupted after register some cpus, when compiled CONFIG_NR_CPUS=255 instead of 512. It turns out that generic_processor_info() ==> phyid_set(apicid, phys_cpu_present_map) causes the problem. phys_cpu_present_map is sized by MAX_APICS bits, and pre-enabled system some cpus have an apic id > 255. The variable after phys_cpu_present_map may get corrupted silently: ffffffff828e8420 B phys_cpu_present_map ffffffff828e8440 B apic_verbosity ffffffff828e8444 B local_apic_timer_c2_ok ffffffff828e8448 B disable_apic ffffffff828e844c B x2apic_mode ffffffff828e8450 B x2apic_disabled ffffffff828e8454 B num_processors ... Actually phys_cpu_present_map is referenced via apic id, instead index. We should use MAX_LOCAL_APIC instead MAX_APICS. For 64-bit it will be 32768 in all cases. BSS will increase by 4k bytes on 64-bit: text data bss dec filename 21696943 4193748 12787712 38678403 vmlinux.before 21696943 4193748 12791808 38682499 vmlinux.after No change on 32bit.

2011-01-03x86, UV, BAU: Extend for more than 16 cpus per socketCliff Wickman
Fix a hard-coded limit of a maximum of 16 cpu's per socket. The UV Broadcast Assist Unit code initializes by scanning the cpu topology of the system and assigning a master cpu for each socket and UV hub. That scan had an assumption of a limit of 16 cpus per socket. With Westmere we are going over that limit. The UV hub hardware will allow up to 32. If the scan finds the system has gone over that limit it returns an error and we print a warning and fall back to doing TLB shootdowns without the BAU.

2010-12-27x86, paravirt: Use native_halt on a halt, not native_safe_haltCliff Wickman
halt() should use native_halt() safe_halt() uses native_safe_halt() If CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y, halt() is defined in arch/x86/include/asm/paravirt.h as static inline void halt(void) { PVOP_VCALL0(pv_irq_ops.safe_halt); } Otherwise (no CONFIG_PARAVIRT) halt() in arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h is static inline void halt(void) { native_halt(); } So it looks to me like the CONFIG_PARAVIRT case of using native_safe_halt() for a halt() is an oversight. Am I missing something? It probably hasn't shown up as a problem because the local apic is disabled on a shutdown or restart. But if we disable interrupts and call halt() we shouldn't expect that the halt() will re-enable interrupts.

2010-12-27x86/microcode: Fix double vfree() and remove redundant pointer checks before ↵Jesper Juhl
vfree() In arch/x86/kernel/microcode_intel.c::generic_load_microcode() we have this: while (leftover) { ... if (get_ucode_data(mc, ucode_ptr, mc_size) || microcode_sanity_check(mc) < 0) { vfree(mc); break; } ... } if (mc) vfree(mc); This will cause a double free of 'mc'. This patch fixes that by just removing the vfree() call in the loop since 'mc' will be freed nicely just after we break out of the loop. There's also a second change in the patch. I noticed a lot of checks for pointers being NULL before passing them to vfree(). That's completely redundant since vfree() deals gracefully with being passed a NULL pointer. Removing the redundant checks yields a nice size decrease for the object file.

2010-12-23x86, acpi: Parse all SRAT cpu entries even above the cpu number limitationYinghai Lu
Recent Intel new system have different order in MADT, aka will list all thread0 at first, then all thread1. But SRAT table still old order, it will list cpus in one socket all together. If the user have compiled limited NR_CPUS or boot with nr_cpus=, could have missed to put some cpus apic id to node mapping into apicid_to_node[]. for example for 4 sockets system with 64 cpus with nr_cpus=32 will get crash...

2010-12-22x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on ↵Don Zickus
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a local implementation to the global one provide by kernel/watchdog.c. This shift has caused a whole bunch of compile problems under different config options. I attempt to simplify things with the patch below. In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. Basically they mean the same thing, the former on a local level and the latter on a global level. With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't make sense any more. x86 will now use the global implementation. The changes below do a few things. First it changes the few places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter anyway, so nothing unusual here). Those pieces of code were relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog functionality, so the change should make sense. Second, I removed the x86 implementation of touch_nmi_watchdog(). It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation. Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from x86. And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This changes removes some of the ugliness in that file. Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. You can only have one nmi_watchdog. Tested with ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken configs) Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken emails. :-) v3: changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

2010-12-22x86, UV: Fix the effect of extra bits in the hub nodeid registerJack Steiner
UV systems can be partitioned into multiple independent SSIs. Large partitioned systems may have extra bits in the node_id register. These bits are used when the total memory on all SSIs exceeds 16TB. These extra bits need to be ignored when calculating x2apic_extra_bits.

2010-12-18cpuops: Use cmpxchg for xchg to avoid lock semanticsChristoph Lameter
Use cmpxchg instead of xchg to realize this_cpu_xchg. xchg will cause LOCK overhead since LOCK is always implied but cmpxchg will not. Baselines: xchg() = 18 cycles (no segment prefix, LOCK semantics) __this_cpu_xchg = 1 cycle (simulated using this_cpu_read/write, two prefixes. Looks like the cpu can use loop optimization to get rid of most of the overhead) Cycles before: this_cpu_xchg = 37 cycles (segment prefix and LOCK (implied by xchg)) After: this_cpu_xchg = 11 cycle (using cmpxchg without lock semantics) Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
