40c373cc3a [PATCH] EFI x86: pass firmware call parameters on the stack
When calling into the EFI firmware, the parameters need to be passed on
the stack. The recent change to use -mregparm=3 breaks x86 EFI support.
This patch is needed to allow the new Intel-based Macs to suspend to ram
(efi.get_time is called during the suspend phase).

435f8a605d Revert "[PATCH] fix typo in geode_configre()@cyrix.c"
This reverts commit e4f0ae0ea6.

It's not wrong, but it's not right either, and everybody seems to agree
that the right fix is probably to do the ccr3 write after the ccr4 one
(and that we also should clean it up a bit).  And after that we need to
really validate that all the bits that we write to ccr4 actually do
work.

The old 2.6.19 code was insane, and basically didn't change ccr4 at all
(even though it certainly looks like it was the *intent* to do so).  So
let's revert the change that may fix things, just because it's not what
was actually ever tested when the code was written, even if it _was_ the
intent.

There's a discussion on http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/9/63 that was
started by the patch that now gets reverted, and that discussion may
well contain the proper long-term fix.

2a3d4f1f1f [PATCH] __crc_... is intended to be absolute
i386 boot/compressed/relocs checks for absolute symbols and warns about
unexpected ones.  If you build with modversions, you get ~2500 warnings
about __crc_<symbol>.  These suckers are really absolute symbols - we
do _not_ want to modify them on relocation.

They are generated by genksyms - EXPORT_... generates a weak alias, then
genksyms produces an ld script with __crc_<symbol> = <checksum> and it's
fed to ld to produce the final object file.  Their only use is to match
kernel and module at modprobe time; they _must_ be absolute.

boot/compressed/relocs has a whitelist of known absolute symbols, but
it doesn't know about __crc_... stuff.  As the result, we get shitloads
of false positives on any ld(1) version.

8339f0008c [PATCH] i386: In assign_irq_vector look at all vectors before giving up
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.

f47aef55d9 [PATCH] i386 vDSO: use VM_ALWAYSDUMP
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.

a1f3bb9ae4 [PATCH] Fix CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO
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.

58d9ce7d75 [PATCH] Revert nmi_known_cpu() check during boot option parsing
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().

9ee79a3d37 [PATCH] x86: fix PDA variables to work during boot
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.

  in terms of maintenance.

o Another option is to make probe() function non __init. Anyway this function
  is really small so not freeing this memory after init is not a big deal.
  Secondly, from a programming perspective, probably genapic should not
  provide pointers to functions which have been freed as genapic is non
  __init and is used even after initialization is complete.

4a5d107a9a [PATCH] i386: cpu hotplug/smpboot misc MODPOST warning fixes
o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the
  warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only
  if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This
  option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST
  is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings.

o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in
  smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which
  if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
  then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling
  another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:print_cpu_info from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01105d0) and '__cpu_up'

o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary()
  is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is
  of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug.

This is patch that solves Ebox mini PC issue and make
FSB code more specification compilant. At start guess_fsb
function is guessing 200MHz FSB too. It is better to
make it in this way because, thanks to this function, driver
will fail for bogus FSB values caused by bogus multiplier
value. For PowerSaver processors we can't depend on Max /
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
spec. It is for voltage scaling purpose and don't have to
be equal to minmult (but it is). Same for Nehemiah (it
isn't for sure). Added mult - current multiplier value.

c6b33cc4e9 [PATCH] Fix insta-reboot with "i386: Relocatable kernel support"
Commit 968de4f026 ("i386: Relocatable
kernel support") caused problems for people with old binutils versions
that didn't mark ".text.*" sections automatically allocated.

So we should use .section command to specifically mark .text.head

This should be unnecessary with binutils 2.15 and later, which is

264166e604 [CPUFREQ] Longhaul - Fix up powersaver assumptions.
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).

8d1c481960 [PATCH] arch/i386/pci/mmconfig.c tlb flush fix
We use the fixmap for accessing pci config space in pci_mmcfg_read/write().
The problem is in pci_exp_set_dev_base(). It is caching a last
accessed address to avoid calling set_fixmap_nocache() whenever
pci_mmcfg_read/write() is used.

  static inline void pci_exp_set_dev_base(int bus, int devfn)
  {
	u32 dev_base = base | (bus << 20) | (devfn << 12);
	if (dev_base != mmcfg_last_accessed_device) {
		mmcfg_last_accessed_device = dev_base;
		set_fixmap_nocache(FIX_PCIE_MCFG, dev_base);
	}
  }

            cpu0                                        cpu1
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    pci_mmcfg_read("device-A")
        pci_exp_set_dev_base()
            set_fixmap_nocache()
                                              pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
                                                  pci_exp_set_dev_base()
                                                      set_fixmap_nocache()
    pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
        pci_exp_set_dev_base()
            /* doesn't flush tlb */

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.

[ Alternatively, we could make a per-cpu mapping area or something. Not
  that it's probably worth it, but if we wanted to avoid all locking and
  instead just disable preemption, that would be the way to go. --Linus ]

0888f06ac9 [PATCH] sched: fix bad missed wakeups in the i386, x86_64, ia64, ACPI and APM idle code
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:

                 _------=> CPU#
                / _-----=> irqs-off
               | / _----=> need-resched

               ||| / _--=> preempt-depth
               |||| /
               |||||     delay
   cmd     pid ||||| time  |   caller

  IRQ_19-1479  1D..1    0us : __trace_start_sched_wakeup (try_to_wake_up)

  IRQ_19-1479  1D..1    0us : __trace_start_sched_wakeup (c01262ba 0 0)
  IRQ_19-1479  1D..1    0us : resched_task (try_to_wake_up)
  IRQ_19-1479  1D..1    0us : __spin_unlock_irqrestore (try_to_wake_up)
  ...

  ...

  ...

   <...>-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.

8701ea957d [PATCH] ptrace: Fix EFL_OFFSET value according to i386 pda changes
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().

1597cacbe3 PCI: Fix multiple problems with VIA hardware
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.
