| * x86, mce: Thermal monitoring depends on APIC being enabledCyrill Gorcunov2009-12-141-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add check if APIC is not disabled since thermal monitoring depends on it. As only apic gets disabled we should not try to install "thermal monitor" vector, print out that thermal monitoring is enabled and etc... Note that "Intel Correct Machine Check Interrupts" already has such a check. Also I decided to not add cpu_has_apic check into mcheck_intel_therm_init since even if it'll call apic_read on disabled apic -- it's safe here and allow us to save a few code bytes.

| * x86: Gart: fix breakage due to IOMMU initialization cleanupYinghai Lu2009-12-142-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the following breakage of the commit 75f1cdf1dda92cae037ec848ae63690d91913eac: - GART systems that don't AGP with broken BIOS and more than 4GB memory are forced to use swiotlb. They can allocate aperture by hand and use GART. - GART systems without GAP must disable GART on shutdown. - swiotlb usage is forced by the boot option, gart_iommu_hole_init() is not called, so we disable GART early_gart_iommu_check().

| * x86: Move swiotlb initialization before dma32_free_bootmemFUJITA Tomonori2009-12-141-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 75f1cdf1dda92cae037ec848ae63690d91913eac introduced a bug that we initialize SWIOTLB right after dma32_free_bootmem so we wrongly steal memory area allocated for GART with broken BIOS earlier. This moves swiotlb initialization before dma32_free_bootmem().

| * x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messagesMike Travis2009-12-116-29/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When there are a large number of processors in a system, there is an excessive amount of messages sent to the system console. It's estimated that with 4096 processors in a system, and the console baudrate set to 56K, the startup messages will take about 84 minutes to clear the serial port. This set of patches limits the number of repetitious messages which contain no additional information. Much of this information is obtainable from the /proc and /sysfs. Some of the messages are also sent to the kernel log buffer as KERN_DEBUG messages so dmesg can be used to examine more closely any details specific to a problem. The new cpu bootup sequence for system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING: Booting Node 0, Processors #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 Ok. Booting Node 1, Processors #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 Ok. ...

| * x86, msr: Add support for non-contiguous cpumasksBorislav Petkov2009-12-112-4/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Cc: H.

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 cpumasksPrarit Bhargava2009-12-101-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

This latter will perform the heavy and racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new one. This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle. So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it after if necessary.

We just need to save the previous frame pointer and to link the new one to the previous. - Otherwise we need another level of indirection. We enter the irq with the previous stack. We save the previous bp inside and make bp pointing to its saved address. Then we switch to the irq stack and push bp another time but to the new stack. This makes two levels to dereference instead of one. In the second case, the current stacktrace code omits the second level and loses the frame pointer accuracy. The stack that follows will then be considered as unreliable. Handling that makes the perf callchain happier.

| * | | | | | | x86: Fixup wrong debug exception frame link in stacktracesFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-061-3/+3

The interrupted stack will then be considered as unreliable and ignored by perf, as the frame pointer is unreliable itself. This happens because we overwrite the frame pointer that links to the interrupted frame with the address of the exception stack. This is done in order to reserve space inside. But rbp has been chosen here only because it is not a scratch register, so that the address of the exception stack remains in rbp after calling do_debug(), we can then release the exception stack space without the need to retrieve its address again. But we can pick another non-scratch register to do that, so that we preserve the link to the interrupted stack frame in the stacktraces. Just randomly choose r12. Every registers are saved just before and restored just after calling do_debug(). And r12 is not used in the middle, which makes it a perfect candidate. Example: perf record -g -a -c 1 -f -e mem:$(tasklist_lock_addr):rw Before: 44.18% [k] _raw_read_lock | | --- |--6.31%-- waitid | |--4.26%-- writev | |--3.63%-- __select | |--3.15%-- __waitpid | | | |--28.57%-- 0x8b52e00000139f | | | |--28.57%-- 0x8b52e0000013c6 | | | |--14.29%-- 0x7fde786dc000 | | | |--14.29%-- 0x62696c2f7273752f | | | --14.29%-- 0x1ea9df800000000 | |--3.00%-- __poll After: 43.94% [k] _raw_read_lock | --- _read_lock | |--60.53%-- send_sigio | __kill_fasync | kill_fasync | evdev_pass_event | evdev_event | input_pass_event | input_handle_event | input_event | synaptics_process_byte | psmouse_handle_byte | psmouse_interrupt | serio_interrupt | i8042_interrupt | handle_IRQ_event | handle_edge_irq | handle_irq | __irqentry_text_start | ret_from_intr | | | |--30.43%-- __select | | | |--17.39%-- 0x454f15 | | | |--13.04%-- __read | | | |--13.04%-- vread_hpet | | | |--13.04%-- _xcb_lock_io | | | --13.04%-- 0x7f630878ce87 Note: it does not only affect perf events but also other stacktraces in x86-64.

| * | | | | | | hw-breakpoints: Use overflow handler instead of the event callbackFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-062-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf as it triggers even when we don't overflow. We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events rules, being called only when we overflow.
