2008-12-19x86: fix intel x86_64 llc_shared_map/cpu_llc_id anomoliesSuresh Siddha1-1/+7
Impact: fix wrong cache sharing detection on platforms supporting > 8 bit apicid's In the presence of extended topology eumeration leaf 0xb provided by cpuid, 32bit extended initial_apicid in cpuinfo_x86 struct will be updated by detect_extended_topology(). At this instance, we should also reinit the apicid (which could also potentially be extended to 32bit). With out this there will potentially be duplicate apicid's populated in the per cpu's cpuinfo_x86 struct, resulting in wrong cache sharing topology etc detected by init_intel_cacheinfo().

2008-12-16x86: support always running TSC on Intel CPUsVenki Pallipadi1-0/+10
Impact: reward non-stop TSCs with good TSC-based clocksources, etc. Add support for CPUID_0x80000007_Bit8 on Intel CPUs as well. This bit means that the TSC is invariant with C/P/T states and always runs at constant frequency. With Intel CPUs, we have 3 classes * CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate and does not stop n C-states * CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate, but will stop in deep C-states * CPUs where TSC rate will vary based on P/T-states and TSC will stop in deep C-states. To cover these 3, one feature bit (CONSTANT_TSC) is not enough. So, add a second bit (NONSTOP_TSC). CONSTANT_TSC indicates that the TSC runs at constant frequency irrespective of P/T-states, and NONSTOP_TSC indicates that TSC does not stop in deep C-states. CPUID_0x8000000_Bit8 indicates both these feature bit can be set. We still have CONSTANT_TSC _set_ and NONSTOP_TSC _not_set_ on some older Intel CPUs, based on model checks. We can use TSC on such CPUs for time, as long as those CPUs do not support/enter deep C-states.

2008-08-18x86: move cmpxchg fallbacks to a generic placeThomas Petazzoni1-64/+0
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c defines a few fallback functions (cmpxchg_*()) that are used when the CPU doesn't support cmpxchg and/or cmpxchg64 natively. However, while defined in an Intel-specific file, these functions are also used for CPUs from other vendors when they don't support cmpxchg and/or cmpxchg64. This breaks the compilation when support for Intel CPUs is disabled. This patch moves these functions to a new arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cmpxchg.c file, unconditionally compiled when X86_32 is enabled.

movsl_mask is currently defined in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c, which contains code specific to Intel CPUs. However, movsl_mask is used in the non-CPU specific code in arch/x86/lib/usercopy_32.c, which breaks the compilation when support for Intel CPUs is compiled out. This patch solves this problem by moving movsl_mask's definition close to its users in arch/x86/lib/usercopy_32.c.

2008-07-18x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternativesMaciej W. Rozycki1-0/+10
Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time. Remove the X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum. Remove apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed. Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends. The use of ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have used it for readability's sake. I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead and here it is. Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP "feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days). Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I have disregarded it. I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I have left changes to them out. The option will get removed from them at the next run. Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will everywhere.

2008-05-12x86, ptrace: PEBS supportMarkus Metzger1-1/+2
Polish the ds.h interface and add support for PEBS. Ds.c is meant to be the resource allocator for per-thread and per-cpu BTS and PEBS recording. It is used by ptrace/utrace to provide execution tracing of debugged tasks. It will be used by profilers (e.g. perfmon2). It may be used by kernel debuggers to provide a kernel execution trace. Changes in detail: - guard DS and ptrace by CONFIG macros - separate DS and BTS more clearly - simplify field accesses - add functions to manage PEBS buffers - add simple protection/allocation mechanism - added support for Atom Opens: - buffer overflow handling Currently, only circular buffers are supported. This is all we need for debugging. Profilers would want an overflow notification. This is planned to be added when perfmon2 is made to use the ds.h interface. - utrace intermediate layer Signed-off-by: Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2008-04-17x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific codeThomas Petazzoni1-6/+3
Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure. This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu() functions. This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly. This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU support code.

2008-01-30x86: fall back on interrupt disable in cmpxchg8b on 80386 and 80486Mathieu Desnoyers1-0/+17
Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior. The comment: /* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */ already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local cpu. This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64 and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486. Q: but why is it called cmpxchg_486 when the other functions are called A: Because the standard cmpxchg is missing only on 386, but cmpxchg8b is missing both on 386 and 486. Citing Intel's Instruction set reference: cmpxchg: This instruction is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Intel486 processors. cmpxchg8b: This instruction encoding is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the Pentium processors. Q: What's the reason to have cmpxchg64_local on 32 bit architectures? Without that need all this would just be a few simple defines. A: cmpxchg64_local on 32 bits architectures takes unsigned long long parameters, but cmpxchg_local only takes longs. Since we have cmpxchg8b to execute a 8 byte cmpxchg atomically on pentium and +, it makes sense to provide a flavor of cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local using this instruction. Also, for 32 bits architectures lacking the 64 bits atomic cmpxchg, it makes sense _not_ to define cmpxchg64 while cmpxchg could still be available. Moreover, the fallback for cmpxchg8b on i386 for 386 and 486 is a However, cmpxchg64_local will be emulated by disabling interrupts on all architectures where it is not supported atomically. Therefore, we *could* turn cmpxchg64_local into a cmpxchg_local, but it would make the 386/486 fallbacks ugly, make its design different from cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 (which really depends on atomic operations and cannot be emulated) and require the __cmpxchg_local to be expressed as a macro rather than an inline function so the parameters would not be fixed to unsigned long long in every case. So I think cmpxchg64_local makes sense there, but I am open to suggestions. Q: Are there any callers? A: I am actually using it in LTTng in my timestamping code. I use it to work around CPUs with asynchronous TSCs. I need to update 64 bits values atomically on this 32 bits architecture. Changelog: - Ran though checkpatch.
