Modern 32bit userland doesn't even boot when the TSC is disabled because ld.so tends to contain RDTSCs. So make notsc only effective for the kernel, similar to 64bit. Signed-off-by:

This convers nofxsr, mem=nopentium and nosep to use the new generic cpuid disable bitmap instead of using own variables. Signed-off-by:

Andi Kleen authored
There are already various options to disable specific cpuid bits on the command line. They all use their own variable. Add a generic mask to make this easier in the future. Signed-off-by:

paravirt_pagetable_setup_{start,done}() are not used (yet) under x86_64, and native_pagetable_setup_{start,done}() don't exist on x86_64. So they don't need to be set. Signed-off-by: -

Add .set_pgd field to pv_mmu_ops. Implement pud_val(), __pud(), set_pgd(), pud_clear(), pgd_clear(). pud_clear() and pgd_clear() are implemented simply using set_pud() and set_pmd(). They don't have a field at pv_mmu_ops. Signed-off-by:

__pmd, pmd_val and set_pud are used before they are defined (as static) We move them a little up in the file, so it doesn't happen. Signed-off-by:

This patch fills in the read and write cr8 fields with their native version. Signed-off-by:
-
Glauber de Oliveira Costa authored
Since the cr8 manipulation functions ended up staying in the tree, they can't be defined just when PARAVIRT is off: In this patch, those functions are defined for the PARAVIRT case too. [ mingo@elte.hu: fixes ] Signed-off-by:

We use a __stringify construction at paravirt_patch_64.c. It's better practice to include the stringify header directly Signed-off-by:

Move the select_idle_routine() call to after the detect_ht() call at identify_cpu() on 64-bit. This change is for printing the polling idle and HT enabled warning message properly. Signed-off-by:

The warning message at idle_setup() is never shown because smp_num_sibling hasn't been updated at this point yet. Move this polling idle and HT enabled warning to select_idle_routine(). I also implement this warning on 64-bit kernel. Signed-off-by:

Andi's patch " x86: move X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC into early cpu feature detection Need this in the next patch in time_init and that happens early. This includes a minor fix on i386 where early_intel_workarounds() [which is now called early_init_intel] really executes early as the comments say.

On some machines, buggy BIOSes don't properly setup WB MTRRs to cover all available RAM, meaning the last few megs (or even gigs) of memory will be marked uncached. Since Linux tends to allocate from high memory addresses first, this causes the machine to be unusably slow as soon as the kernel starts really using memory (i.e. right around init time). This patch works around the problem by scanning the MTRRs at boot and figuring out whether the current end_pfn value (setup by early e820 code) goes beyond the highest WB MTRR range, and if so, trimming it to match. A fairly obnoxious KERN_WARNING is printed too, letting the user know that not all of their memory is available due to a likely BIOS bug. Something similar could be done on i386 if needed, but the boot ordering would be slightly different, since the MTRR code on i386 depends on the boot_cpu_data structure being setup. This patch fixes a bug in the last patch that caused the code to run on non-Intel machines (AMD machines apparently don't need it and it's untested on other non-Intel machines, so best keep it off).

They now look like: hal-resmgr[13791]: segfault at 3c rip 2b9c8caec182 rsp 7fff1e825d30 error 4 in libacl.so.1.1.0[2b9c8caea000+6000] This makes it easier to pinpoint bugs to specific libraries. And printing the offset into a mapping also always allows to find the correct fault point in a library even with randomized mappings. Previously there was no way to actually find the correct code address inside the randomized mapping. Relies on earlier patch to shorten the printk formats. They are often now longer than 80 characters, but I think that's worth it. [includes fix from Eric Dumazet to check d_path error value] Signed-off-by:

When the kernel panics early for some unrelated reason there would be eventually an early exception inside panic because clear_local_APIC tried to disable the not yet mapped APIC. Check for that explicitely. Signed-off-by:

On VMs implemented using JITs that cache translated code changing the lock prefixes is a quite costly operation that forces the JIT to throw away and retranslate a lot of code. Previously a SMP kernel would rewrite the locks once for each CPU which is quite unnecessary. This patch changes the code to never switch at boot in the normal case (SMP kernel booting with >1 CPU) or only once for SMP kernel on UP. This makes a significant difference in boot up performance on AMD SimNow! Also I expect it to be a little faster on native systems too because a smp switch does a lot of text_poke()s which each synchronize the pipeline. v1->v2: Rename max_cpus v1->v2: Fix off by one in UP check (Thomas Gleixner) Signed-off-by:

On x86-64 there are several memory allocations before bootmem. To avoid them stomping on each other they used to be all hard coded in bad_area(). Replace this with an array that is filled as needed. This cleans up the code considerably and allows to expand its use. Cc: peterz@infradead.org Signed-off-by:

Previously there was a AMD specific quirk to handle the case of AMD Fam10h MWAIT not supporting any C states. But it turns out that CPUID already has ways to detectly detect that without using special quirks. The new code simply checks if MWAIT supports at least C1 and doesn't use it if it doesn't. No more vendor specific code. Note this is does not simply clear MWAIT because MWAIT can be still useful even without C states. Credit goes to Ben Serebrin for pointing out the (nearly) obvious.

This is against current x86.git. The size of the system call table for 32-bit x86 kernels is obtained by compile-time calculation of the sys_call_table array, not from the value, which the NR_syscalls macro expands to. This trivial patch removes the fossil macro. Manually tested by grepping the x86 files for the "NR_syscalls" string. No relevant use cases found. Build-tested using allyesconfig, allnoconfig and a couple of randconfig instances. All builds successfully finished. Runtime test performed using a stripped-down Debian-ish config. The system booted successfully. Signed-off-by:
