When the world was a simple and static place setting up irqs was easy.
It sufficed to allocate a linux irq number and a find a free cpu
vector we could receive that linux irq on. In those days it was
a safe assumption that any allocated vector was actually in use
so after one global pass through all of the vectors we would have
none left.
These days things are much more dynamic with interrupt controllers
(in the form of MSI or MSI-X) appearing on plug in cards and linux
irqs appearing and disappearing. As these irqs come and go vectors
are allocated and freed, invalidating the ancient assumption that all
allocated vectors stayed in use forever.
So this patch modifies the vector allocator to walk through every
possible vector before giving up, and to check to see if a vector
is in use before assigning it. With these changes we stop leaking
freed vectors and it becomes possible to allocate and free irq vectors
all day long.
This changed was modeled after the vector allocator on x86_64 where
this limitation has already been removed. In essence we don't update
the static variables that hold the position of the last vector we
allocated until have successfully allocated another vector. This
allows us to detect if we have completed one complete scan through
all of the possible vectors.

This patch fixes core dumps to include the vDSO vma, which is left out now.
It removes the special-case core writing macros, which were not doing the
right thing for the vDSO vma anyway. Instead, it uses VM_ALWAYSDUMP in the
vma; there is no need for the fixmap page to be installed. It handles the
CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO case by making elf_core_dump use the fake vma from
get_gate_vma after real vmas in the same way the /proc/PID/maps code does.
This changes core dumps so they no longer include the non-PT_LOAD phdrs from
the vDSO. I made the change to add them in the first place, but in turned out
that nothing ever wanted them there since the advent of NT_AUXV. It's cleaner
to leave them out, and just let the phdrs inside the vDSO image speak for
themselves.

I wouldn't mind if CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO went away entirely. But if it's there,
it should work properly. Currently it's quite haphazard: both real vma and
fixmap are mapped, both are put in the two different AT_* slots, sysenter
returns to the vma address rather than the fixmap address, and core dumps yet
are another story.
This patch makes CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO disable the real vma and use the fixmap
area consistently. This makes it actually compatible with what the old vdso
implementation did.

Commit f2802e7f57 and its x86 version
(b7471c6da9) adds nmi_known_cpu() check
while parsing boot options in x86_64 and i386.
With that, "nmi_watchdog=2" stops working for me on Intel Core 2 CPU
based system.
The problem is, setup_nmi_watchdog is called while parsing the boot
option and identify_cpu is not done yet. So, the return value of
nmi_known_cpu() is not valid at this point.
So revert that check. This should not have any adverse effect as the
nmi_known_cpu() check is done again later in enable_lapic_nmi_watchdog().

The current PDA code, which went in in post 2.6.19 has a flaw in that it
doesn't correctly cycle the GDT and %GS segment through the boot PDA,
the CPU PDA and finally the per-cpu PDA.
The bug generally doesn't show up if the boot CPU id is zero, but
everything falls apart for a non zero boot CPU id. The basically kills
voyager which is perfectly capable of doing non zero CPU id boots, so
voyager currently won't boot without this.
The fix is to be careful and actually do the GDT setups correctly.

MinMHzFSB because these values are only used for
PowerSaver 2.0 and 3.0. Most processors on which Longhaul
is used are PowerSaver 1.0 only. I'm changing code for older
CPU's too, but not so much as previously, and this code was
already used for Ezra. Using MinMHzBR for Ezra-T is outside

Commit 968de4f026 ("i386: Relocatable

So we should use .section command to specifically mark .text.head
section as AX (allocatable and executable) to solve the problem.
This should be unnecessary with binutils 2.15 and later, which is
already three years old, but it doesn't hurt supporting older toolchains

ACPI PM2 register was fallback for "Longhaul ver. 1" CPU's.
My assumption that this register isn't present at
"PowerSaver" motherboards is so far true, but current code
will not work correctly in other case. There are three possible
supports: ACPI C3, PM2 and northbridge. That was my assumption
that ACPI C3 and northbridge is for PS and northbridge and PM2
is for V1. In current code we can only check if it is ACPI
support or not by port22_en. So remove port22_en and add
longhaul_flags. If USE_ACPI_C3 and USE_NORTHBRIDGE are both
clear then it means ACPI PM2 support. Also change order of
support probe from ACPI C3, PM2, northbridge to ACPI C3,
northbridge, ACPI PM2. Paranoid protection against port 0x22
cast as ACPI PM2 register. Bit 1 clear in such case - lockup
on AGP DMA. And obvious (now) fixup for do_powersaver. Use
cx->address only for ACPI C3 ("PowerSaver" processor using
PM2 support).

But if cpus accessed the above order, the second pci_mmcfg_read() on
cpu0 doesn't flush the TLB, because "mmcfg_last_accessed_device" is
device-B. So, second pci_mmcfg_read() on cpu0 accesses a device-A via
a previous TLB cache. This problem became the cause of several strange
behavior.
This patches fixes this situation by adds "mmcfg_last_accessed_cpu" check.

that it's probably worth it, but if we wanted to avoid all locking and

Fernando Lopez-Lezcano reported frequent scheduling latencies and audio
xruns starting at the 2.6.18-rt kernel, and those problems persisted all
until current -rt kernels. The latencies were serious and unjustified by
system load, often in the milliseconds range.
After a patient and heroic multi-month effort of Fernando, where he
tested dozens of kernels, tried various configs, boot options,
test-patches of mine and provided latency traces of those incidents, the
following 'smoking gun' trace was captured by him:

<...>-5856 0D..1 619us : trace_stop_sched_switched <<...>-5856> (37 0)
what is visible in this trace is that CPU#1 ran try_to_wake_up() for
PID:5856, it placed PID:5856 on CPU#0's runqueue and ran resched_task()
for CPU#0. But it decided to not send an IPI that no CPU - due to
TS_POLLING. But CPU#0 never woke up after its NEED_RESCHED bit was set,
and only rescheduled to PID:5856 upon the next lapic timer IRQ. The
result was a 600+ usecs latency and a missed wakeup!
the bug turned out to be an idle-wakeup bug introduced into the mainline
kernel this summer via an optimization in the x86_64 tree:
commit 495ab9c045
Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
Date: Mon Jun 26 13:59:11 2006 +0200
[PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status
During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.
the problem is this type of change:
if (!hlt_counter && boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
- clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG);
+ current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
smp_mb__after_clear_bit();
while (!need_resched()) {
local_irq_disable();
this changes clear_thread_flag() to an explicit clearing of TS_POLLING.
clear_thread_flag() is defined as:
clear_bit(flag, &ti->flags);
and clear_bit() is a LOCK-ed atomic instruction on all x86 platforms:
static inline void clear_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
{
__asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX
"btrl %1,%0"
hence smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is defined as a simple compile barrier:
#define smp_mb__after_clear_bit() barrier()
but the explicit TS_POLLING clearing introduced by the patch:
+ current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
is not an atomic op! So the clearing of the TS_POLLING bit is freely
reorderable with the reading of the NEED_RESCHED bit - and both now
reside in different memory addresses.
CPU idle wakeup very much depends on ordered memory ops, the clearing of
the TS_POLLING flag must always be done before we test need_resched()
and hit the idle instruction(s). [Symmetrically, the wakeup code needs
to set NEED_RESCHED before it tests the TS_POLLING flag, so memory
ordering is paramount.]
Fernando's dual-core Athlon64 system has a sufficiently advanced memory
ordering model so that it triggered this scenario very often.
( And it also turned out that the reason why these latencies never
triggered on my testsystems is that i routinely use idle=poll, which
was the only idle variant not affected by this bug. )
The fix is to change the smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to an smp_mb(), to
act as an absolute barrier between the TS_POLLING write and the
NEED_RESCHED read. This affects almost all idling methods (default,
ACPI, APM), on all 3 x86 architectures: i386, x86_64, ia64.

The PDA patches introduced a bug in ptrace: it reads eflags from the wrong
place on the target's stack, but writes it back to the correct place. The
result is a corrupted eflags, which is most visible when it turns interrupts
off unexpectedly.
This patch fixes this by making the ptrace code a little less fragile. It
changes [gs]et_stack_long to take a straightforward byte offset into struct
pt_regs, rather than requiring all callers to do a sizeof(struct pt_regs)
offset adjustment. This means that the eflag's offset (EFL_OFFSET) on the
target stack can be simply computed with offsetof().

Fix compile error when config memory hotplug with numa on i386.
The cause of compile error was missing of arch_add_memory(),
remove_memory(), and memory_add_physaddr_to_nid().

register_memory() becomes double definition in 2.6.20-rc1. It is defined
in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c as static definition in 2.6.19. But it is
moved to arch/i386/kernel/e820.c in 2.6.20-rc1. And same name function is
defined in driver/base/memory.c too. So, it becomes cause of compile error
of duplicate definition if memory hotplug option is on.

This patch is designed to fix:
- Disk eating corruptor on KT7 after resume from RAM
- VIA IRQ handling
- VIA fixups for bus lockups after resume from RAM
The core of this is to add a table of resume fixups run at resume time.
We need to do this for a variety of boards and features, but particularly
we need to do this to get various critical VIA fixups done on resume.
The second part of the problem is to handle VIA IRQ number rules which
are a bit odd and need special handling for PIC interrupts. Various
patches broke various boxes and while this one may not be perfect
(hopefully it is) it ensures the workaround is applied to the right
devices only.
From: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
Now that PCI quirks are replayed on software resume, we can safely
re-enable the Asus SMBus unhiding quirk even when software suspend support
is enabled.

It has caused more problems than it ever really solved, and is
apparently not getting cleaned up and fixed. We can put it back when
it's stable and isn't likely to make warning or bug events worse.
In the meantime, enable frame pointers for more readable stack traces.

Run this:
#!/bin/sh
for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
echo "De-casting $f..."
perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
done
And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.
And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

Support for Core CPUs was broken in two ways in speedstep-lib: for x86_64,
we missed a MSR definition; for both x86_64 and i386, the FSB calculation
was wrong by four (it's a quad-pumped bus). Also increase the accuracy
of the calculation.

freq_table was ending up with some garbage/uninitialized entries
