2008-02-06x86: delay CPA self-test and repeat itIngo Molnar1-2/+2
delay the CPA self-test so that any impact (corruption) of user-space pagetables can be triggered. Repeat the test every 30 seconds. this would have prevented the bug fixed by 8cb2a7c1e95e472b5, at its source. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

make CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC universally available. CONFIG_HIBERNATION and CONFIG_HUGETLBFS was disabling it, for no particular reason. If there are any unfixed bugs here we'll fix it, but do not disable vital debugging facilities like that ..

2008-01-30x86 boot : export boot_params via debugfs for debuggingHuang, Ying1-0/+7
This patch export the boot parameters via debugfs for debugging. The files added are as follow: boot_params/data : binary file for struct boot_params boot_params/version : boot protocol version This patch is based on 2.6.24-rc5-mm1 and has been tested on i386 and x86_64 platform. This patch is based on the Peter Anvin's proposal. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-01-30x86: unify arch/x86/kernel/Makefile(s)Sam Ravnborg1-2/+1
Combine the 32 and 64 bit specific Makefiles in one file. While doing so link order was (almost) preserved on 32 bit but on 64 bit link order changed a lot. Patch was checked with defconfig + allyesconfig builds. The same .o files were linked in these configurations. To keep readability of the Makefiles a few Kconfig symbols was added/modified and it was checked that they were not used anywhere else. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: "H.

2008-01-30x86: make io_delay=0xed the defaultIngo Molnar1-1/+1
make io_delay=0xed the default. This frees up port 0x80 which is a debug port on some machines and locks up certain laptops. Testing only for now. Try the io_delay=0x80 boot option if this does not work for you. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

various changes to the in_p/out_p delay details: - add the io_delay=none method - make each method selectable from the kernel config - simplify the delay code a bit by getting rid of an indirect function call - add the /proc/sys/kernel/io_delay_type sysctl - change 'io_delay=standard|alternate' to io_delay=0x80 and io_delay=0xed - make the io delay config not depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: "David P.

2008-01-30x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override.Rene Herman1-0/+9
x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override. Certain (HP) laptops experience trouble from our port 0x80 I/O delay writes. This patch provides for a DMI based switch to the "alternate diagnostic port" 0xed (as used by some BIOSes as well) for these. David P. Reed confirmed that port 0xed works for him and provides a proper delay. The symptoms of _not_ working are a hanging machine, with "hwclock" use being a direct trigger. Earlier versions of this attempted to simply use udelay(2), with the 2 being a value tested to be a nicely conservative upper-bound with help from many on the linux-kernel mailinglist but that approach has two problems. First, pre-loops_per_jiffy calibration (which is post PIT init while some implementations of the PIT are actually one of the historically problematic devices that need the delay) udelay() isn't particularly well-defined. We could initialise loops_per_jiffy conservatively (and based on CPU family so as to not unduly delay old machines) which would sort of work, but... Second, delaying isn't the only effect that a write to port 0x80 has. It's also a PCI posting barrier which some devices may be explicitly or implicitly relying on. Alan Cox did a survey and found evidence that additionally some drivers may be racy on SMP without the bus locking outb. Switching to an inb() makes the timing too unpredictable and as such, this DMI based switch should be the safest approach for now. Any more invasive changes should get more rigid testing first. It's moreover only very few machines with the problem and a DMI based hack seems to fit that situation. This also introduces a command-line parameter "io_delay" to override the DMI based choice again: io_delay=<standard|alternate> where "standard" means using the standard port 0x80 and "alternate" port 0xed. This retains the udelay method as a config (CONFIG_UDELAY_IO_DELAY) and command-line ("io_delay=udelay") choice for testing purposes as well. This does not change the io_delay() in the boot code which is using the same port 0x80 I/O delay but those do not appear to be a problem as David P. Reed reported the problem was already gone after using the udelay version. He moreover reported that booting with "acpi=off" also fixed things and seeing as how ACPI isn't touched until after this DMI based I/O port switch I believe it's safe to leave the ones in the boot code be. The DMI strings from David's HP Pavilion dv9000z are in there already and we need to get/verify the DMI info from other machines with the problem, notably the HP Pavilion dv6000z. This patch is partly based on earlier patches from Pavel Machek and David P. Reed.
