In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU(). This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.
On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section. The linker throws
up the following errors:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU(). However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

Take already available policy->cpuinfo.max_freq and get rid of acpi-cpufreq
specific max_freq variable.
This implies that P0 is always the highest frequency which should always
be true as ACPI spec says:

Fix for a regression that was introduced by earlier commit
18b2646fe3babeb40b34a0c1751e0bf5adfdc64c on Mon Apr 6 11:26:08 2009
Regression resulted in the below error happened on systems with
software coordination where per_cpu acpi data will not be initiated for
secondary CPUs in a P-state domain.

Fixes guest crash 'lguest: bad read address 0x4800000 len 256'
The new per-cpu allocator ends up handing a non-linear address to
write_gdt_entry. We do __pa() on it, and hand it to the host, which
kills us.
I've long wanted to make the hypercall "LOAD_GDT_ENTRY" to match the IDT
code, but had no pressing reason until now.

This change resolves the problem of too many single page entries
in pat_memtype_list and "freeing invalid memtype" errors with i915,
reported here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123845244713183&w=2
Remove page level granularity track and untrack of vm_insert_pfn.
memtype tracking at page granularity does not scale and cleaner
approach would be for the driver to request a type for a bigger
IO address range or PCI io memory range for that device, either at
mmap time or driver init time and just use that type during
vm_insert_pfn.
This patch just removes the track/untrack of vm_insert_pfn. That
means we will be in same state as 2.6.28, with respect to these APIs.
Newer APIs for the drivers to request a memtype for a bigger region
is coming soon.

This patch correctly sets BAU memory mapped registers to point
to the sending activation descriptor table and target payload table.
The "Broadcast Assist Unit" is used for TLB shootdown in UV.
The memory mapped registers that point to sending and receiving
memory structures contain node numbers.
In one case the __pa() function did not provide the node id of
memory on blade zero in configurations where that id is nonzero.
In another case, it was assumed that memory was allocated on
the local node. That assumption is not true in a configuration
in which the node has no memory.
Tested on the UV hardware simulator.

Oleg Nesterov found a couple of races in the ptrace-bts code
and fixes are queued up for it but they did not get ready in time
for the merge window. We'll merge them in v2.6.31 - until then
mark the feature as CONFIG_BROKEN. There's no user-space yet
making use of this so it's not a big issue.

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.
My bad.
'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):
(a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.
(b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
call on that CPU.
Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c")
That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g.
microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22
where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2.
We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code,
because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from
/sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.

This patch enables each partition's BAU distribution bit map
to be partition-relative.
The distribution bitmap had been constructed assuming 0 as the base
node number. That construct would not have allowed a total system of
greater than 256 nodes.
It also corrects an error that occurred when the first blade's nasid
was not zero. That nasid was stored as the base node.
The base node number gets added by hardware to the node numbers implied
in the distribution bitmap, resulting in invalid target nasids.
Tested on the UV hardware simulator.

We ended up incorrectly using '&cur' instead of '&readin' in the
work_on_cpu() -> smp_call_function_single() transformation in commit

smp_call_function_[single|many]() in acpi-cpufreq.c").
Andrew explains:
"OK, the acpi tree went and had conflicting changes merged into it after
I'd written the patch and it appears that I incorrectly reverted part
of 18b2646fe3babeb40b34a0c1751e0bf5adfdc64c while fixing the resulting

Switching it to `readin' looks correct."

pat_disable cannot be __cpuinit anymore because it's called from pat_init
and the callchain looks like this:
pat_disable [cpuinit] <- pat_init <- generic_set_all <-
ipi_handler <- set_mtrr <- (other non init/cpuinit functions)
WARNING: arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.text+0x449e): Section mismatch in reference
from the function pat_init() to the function .cpuinit.text:pat_disable()
The function pat_init() references
the function __cpuinit pat_disable().
This is often because pat_init lacks a __cpuinit
annotation or the annotation of pat_disable is wrong.
Non CONFIG_X86_PAT version of pat_disable is static inline, so this version
can be static too (and there are no callers outside of this file).

In arch/x86/kernel/mpparse.c, smp_reserve_bootmem() has been called

because it refers to an .init section.

Impact: fix kprobes crash on 32-bit with RAM above 4G
Use phys_addr_t for receiving a physical address argument
instead of unsigned long. This allows fixmap to handle
pages higher than 4GB on x86-32.

/dev/mem mmap code was doing memtype reserve/free for a while now.
Recently we added memtype tracking in remap_pfn_range, and /dev/mem mmap
uses it indirectly. So, we don't need seperate tracking in /dev/mem code
any more. That means another ~100 lines of code removed :-).

Fix pat_x_mtrr_type() to use UC_MINUS when the mtrr type return UC. This
is to be consistent with ioremap() and ioremap_nocache() which uses
UC_MINUS.
Consolidate the code such that reserve_memtype() also uses
pat_x_mtrr_type() when the caller doesn't specify any special attribute
(non WB attribute).

As per SDM, there should not be any aliasing of a WC with any cacheable
type across CPUs. That is if one CPU is changing the identity map
memtype to _WC, no other CPU at the time of this change should not have a
TLB for this page that carries a WB attribute. SDM suggests to make the
page not present. But for that we will have to handle any page faults
that can potentially happen due to these pages being not present.
Other way to deal with this without having any WB mapping is to change
the page first to UC and then to WC. This ensures that we meet the SDM
requirement of no cacheable alais to WC page. This also has same or
lower overhead than marking the page not present and making it present
later.

Handle faults and do proper cleanups in set_memory_*() functions. In
some cases, these functions were not doing proper free on failure paths.
With the changes to tracking memtype of RAM pages in struct page instead
of pat list, we do not need the changes in commits c5e147. This patch
reverts that change.

Change the identity mapping with the requested attribute first, before
we setup the virtual memory mapping with the new requested attribute.
This makes sure that there is no window when identity map'ed attribute
may disagree with ioremap range on the attribute type.
This also avoids doing cpa on the ioremap'ed address twice (first in
ioremap_page_range and then in ioremap_change_attr using vaddr), and
should improve ioremap performance a bit.

To simplify level irq migration in the presence of interrupt-remapping,
Suresh used a virtual vector (io-apic pin number) to eliminate io-apic
RTE modification. Level triggered interrupt will appear as an edge to
the local apic cpu but still as level to the IO-APIC. So in addition to
do the local apic EOI, it still needs to do IO-APIC directed EOI to clear
the remote IRR bit in the IO-APIC RTE. Pls refer to Suresh's patch for
more details (commit 0280f7c416c652a2fd95d166f52b199ae61122c0).
Now interrupt remapping is decoupled from x2apic, it also needs to do the
directed EOI for apic. Otherwise, apic interrupts won't work correctly.

Impact: fix build warnings and possibe compat misbehavior on IA64
Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger these ugly build warnings:
CC arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
from include/linux/module.h:14,
from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,
from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18:
arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
[...]
sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.
But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher
level headers.
Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.
