| * x86: Make EFI RTC function depend on 32bit againFeng Tang2009-10-271-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The EFI RTC functions are only available on 32 bit. commit 7bd867df (x86: Move get/set_wallclock to x86_platform_ops) removed the 32bit dependency which leads to boot crashes on 64bit EFI systems. Add the dependency back.

| * x86-64: Fix register leak in 32-bit syscall audtingJan Beulich2009-10-261-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Restoring %ebp after the call to audit_syscall_exit() is not only unnecessary (because the register didn't get clobbered), but in the sysenter case wasn't even doing the right thing: It loaded %ebp from a location below the top of stack (RBP < ARGOFFSET), i.e. arbitrary kernel data got passed back to user mode in the register.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non-PAE 32-bit dump kernels may wrap an address around 4G and poke unwanted space. ptes there are 32-bit long, and since pfn << PAGE_SIZE may exceed this limit, high pfn bits are cropped and wrong address mapped by kmap_atomic_pfn in copy_oldmem_page. Don't allow this behavior in non-PAE kdump kernels by checking pfns passed into copy_oldmem_page. In the case of failure, userspace process gets EFAULT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 79e1dd05d1a22 "x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()" broke lguest, even on systems which have cmpxchg8b support. The emulation code gets used until alternatives get run, but it contains native instructions, not their paravirt alternatives. The simplest fix is to turn this code off except for 386 and 486 builds.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case. Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks" message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of CPUs.

Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val which is the correct value. Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a problem where the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode and the bau will not operate.

For historical reasons irq enable/disable/save/restore had special calling sequences to make them more efficient. With the more recent introduction of higher-level and more general optimisations this is no longer necessary so we can just use the normal PVOP_ macros. This fixes some residual bugs in the old implementations which left edx liable to inadvertent clobbering. Also, fix some bugs in __PVOP_VCALLEESAVE which were revealed by actual use.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current bound checks for copy_from_user in the MTRR driver are not as obvious as they could be, and gcc agrees with that. This patch simplifies the boundary checks to the point that gcc can now prove to itself that the copy_from_user() is never going past its bounds.

While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE code i also noticed a few other things and made the following cleanups/fixes: - Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not good, obviously. - The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h. - Added the more correct fallback printk of: No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type. Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode. On CPUs that dont have a decoder. - Made the surrounding code more readable. Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback - without having to check the CPU versions during the printout itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the decode-print function. (there's no unregister needed as this is core code.) version -v2 by Borislav Petkov: - add K8 to the set of supported CPUs - always build in edac_mce_amd since we use an early_initcall now - fix checkpatch warnings Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> LKML-Reference: <20091001141432.GA11410@aftab> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* | | | x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interruptsArjan van de Ven2009-10-082-0/+3

Frans Pop also reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using iwlagn. It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible. The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that: 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up. I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec range.
