      doc: Add documentation for bootloader_{type,version} · d75757ab
      H. Peter Anvin authored
      Add documentation for kernel/bootloader_type and
      kernel/bootloader_version to sysctl/kernel.txt.  This should really
      have been done a long time ago.

      x86, msr: Add support for non-contiguous cpumasks · 50542251
      Borislav Petkov authored
      The current rd/wrmsr_on_cpus helpers assume that the supplied
      cpumasks are contiguous. However, there are machines out there
      like some K8 multinode Opterons which have a non-contiguous core
      enumeration on each node (e.g. cores 0,2 on node 0 instead of 0,1), see
      http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1160268.
      
      This patch fixes out-of-bounds writes (see URL above) by adding per-CPU
      msr structs which are used on the respective cores.
      
      Additionally, two helpers, msrs_{alloc,free}, are provided for use by
      the callers of the MSR accessors.

      x86: Use find_e820() instead of hard coded trampoline address · 893f38d1
      Yinghai Lu authored
      Jens found the following crash/regression:
      
      [    0.000000] found SMP MP-table at [ffff8800000fdd80] fdd80
      [    0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 0-fff BIOS data page
      
      and
      
      [    0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 6000-7fff TRAMPOLINE
      
      and bisected it to b24c2a92 ("x86: Move find_smp_config()
      earlier and avoid bootmem usage").
      
      It turns out the BIOS is using the first 64k for mptable,
      without reserving it.
      
      So try to find good range for the real-mode trampoline instead of
      hard coding it, in case some bios tries to use that range for sth.

      x86, AMD: Fix stale cpuid4_info shared_map data in shared_cpu_map cpumasks · ebb682f5
      Prarit Bhargava authored
      The per_cpu cpuid4_info shared_map can contain stale data when CPUs are added
      and removed.
      
      The stale data can lead to a NULL pointer derefernce panic on a remove of a
      CPU that has had siblings previously removed.
      
      This patch resolves the panic by verifying a cpu is actually online before
      adding it to the shared_cpu_map, only examining cpus that are part of
      the same lower level cache, and by updating other siblings lowest level cache
      maps when a cpu is added.
