2007-03-06[PATCH] i386: make x86_64 tsc header require i386 rather than vice-versaAndres Salomon1-67/+1
Prior to commit 95492e4646e5de8b43d9a7908d6177fb737b61f0 ([PATCH] x86: rewrite SMP TSC sync code), the headers in asm-i386 did not really require anything in include/asm-x86_64. This means that distributions such as fedora did not include asm-x86_64 in kernel-devel headers for i386. Ingo's commit changed that, and broke things. This is easy enough to hack around in package builds by just including asm-x86_64 on i386, but that's kind of annoying. If anything, x86_64 should depend upon i386, not the other way around. This patch changes it so that asm-x86_64/tsc.h includes asm-i386/tsc.h, rather than vice-versa.

2007-03-05[PATCH] disable NMI watchdog by defaultIngo Molnar1-1/+1
there's a new NMI watchdog related problem: KVM crashes on certain bzImages because ... we enable the NMI watchdog by default (even if the user does not ask for it) , and no other OS on this planet does that so KVM doesnt have emulation for that yet. So KVM injects a #GP, which crashes the Linux guest: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<c011a8ae>] Not tainted VLI EFLAGS: 00000246 (2.6.20-rc5-rt0 #3) EIP is at setup_apic_nmi_watchdog+0x26d/0x3d3 and no, i did /not/ request an nmi_watchdog on the boot command line! Solution: turn off that darn thing! It's a debug tool, not a 'make life harder' tool!! with this patch the KVM guest boots up just fine. And with this my laptop (Lenovo T60) also stopped its sporadic hard hanging (sometimes in acpi_init(), sometimes later during bootup, sometimes much later during actual use) as well. It hung with both nmi_watchdog=1 and nmi_watchdog=2, so it's generally the fact of NMI injection that is causing problems, not the NMI watchdog variant, nor any particular bootup code.

2007-03-05[PATCH] clocksource init adjustments (fix bug #7426)john stultz1-0/+1
This patch resolves the issue found here: http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426 The basic summary is: Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case), where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to the small sampling time used. It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init time. Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall). This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own boxes.

2007-03-05[PATCH] sched: remove SMT niceCon Kolivas1-1/+0
Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared. The idling of cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be unworkable. Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by this code. Also: The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely. It was Ingo's preference to kill it off. Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks has gone in.

2007-02-26[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Safely cleanup an irq after moving it.Eric W. Biederman1-2/+7
The problem: After moving an interrupt when is it safe to teardown the data structures for receiving the interrupt at the old location? With a normal pci device it is possible to issue a read to a device to flush all posted writes. This does not work for the oldest ioapics because they are on a 3-wire apic bus which is a completely different data path. For some more modern ioapics when everything is using front side bus delivery you can flush interrupts by simply issuing a read to the ioapic. For other modern ioapics emperical testing has shown that this does not work. So it appears the only reliable way to know the last of the irqs from an ioapic have been received from before the ioapic was reprogrammed is to received the first irq from the ioapic from after it was reprogrammed. Once we know the last irq message has been received from an ioapic into a local apic we then need to know that irq message has been processed through the local apics. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-20rdmsr_on_cpu, wrmsr_on_cpuAlexey Dobriyan1-0/+2
There was OpenVZ specific bug rendering some cpufreq drivers unusable on SMP. In short, when cpufreq code thinks it confined itself to needed cpu by means of set_cpus_allowed() to execute rdmsr, some "virtual cpu" feature can migrate process to anywhere. This triggers bugons and does wrong things in general. This got fixed by introducing rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu executing rdmsr and wrmsr on given physical cpu by means of smp_call_function_single(). Dave Jones mentioned cpufreq might be not only user of rdmsr_on_cpu() and wrmsr_on_cpu(), so I'm putting them into arch/{i386,x86_64}/lib/ .

The biggest change is the removal of the 'fix up TSCs' code on x86_64 and i386, in some rare cases it was /causing/ time-warps on SMP systems. The new code only checks for TSC asynchronity - and if it can prove a time-warp (if it can observe the TSC going backwards when going from one CPU to another within a critical section), then the TSC clock-source is turned off. The TSC synchronization-checking code also got moved into a separate file.

2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: update IO-APIC dest field to 8-bit for xAPICBenjamin Romer1-12/+2
On the Unisys ES7000/ONE system, we encountered a problem where performing a kexec reboot or dump on any cell other than cell 0 causes the system timer to stop working, resulting in a hang during timer calibration in the new kernel. We traced the problem to one line of code in disable_IO_APIC(), which needs to restore the timer's IO-APIC configuration before rebooting. The code is currently using the 4-bit physical destination field, rather than using the 8-bit logical destination field, and it cuts off the upper 4 bits of the timer's APIC ID. If we change this to use the logical destination field, the timer works and we can kexec on the upper cells. This was tested on two different cells (0 and 2) in an ES7000/ONE system. For reference, the relevant Intel xAPIC spec is kept at ftp://download.intel.com/design/chipsets/e8501/datashts/30962001.pdf, specifically on page 334.

This patch resolves the issue of running with numa=fake=X on kernel command line on x86_64 machines that have big IO hole. While calculating the size of each node now we look at the total hole size in that range. Previously there were nodes that only had IO holes in them causing kernel boot problems. We now use the NODE_MIN_SIZE (64MB) as the minimum size of memory that any node must have. We reduce the number of allocated nodes if the number of nodes specified on kernel command line results in any node getting memory smaller than NODE_MIN_SIZE. This change allows the extra memory to be incremented in NODE_MIN_SIZE granule and uniformly distribute among as many nodes (called big nodes) as possible.

2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: Allocate the NUMA hash function nodemap dynamicallyAmul Shah2-6/+8
Remove the statically allocated memory to NUMA node hash map in favor of a dynamically allocated memory to node hash map (it is cache aligned). This patch has the nice side effect in that it allows the hash map to grow for systems with large amounts of memory (256GB - 1TB), but suffer from having small PCI space tacked onto the boot node (which is somewhere between 192MB to 512MB on the ES7000).

2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: Add __copy_from_user_nocacheAndi Kleen1-0/+14
This does user copies in fs write() into the page cache with write combining. This pushes the destination out of the CPU's cache, but allows higher bandwidth in some case. The theory is that the page cache data is usually not touched by the CPU again and it's better to not pollute the cache with it. Also it is a little faster. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2007-02-12[PATCH] x86_64: 2048-byte command lineAlon Bar-Lev1-1/+1
Current implementation allows the kernel to receive up to 255 characters from the bootloader. While the boot protocol allows greater buffers to be sent. In current environment, the command-line is used in order to specify many values, including suspend/resume, module arguments, splash, initramfs and more. 255 characters are not enough anymore. After edd issue was fixed, and dynammic kernel command-line patch was accepted, we can extend the COMMAND_LINE_SIZE without runtime memory requirements.

2007-02-11[PATCH] consolidate line discipline number definitionsTilman Schmidt1-18/+0
The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in asm/termios.h. There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios structure. The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h anyway. So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too. Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case there are plans to use them yet.

2007-02-09[PATCH] kill eth_io_copy_and_sum()Al Viro1-6/+0
On all targets that sucker boils down to memcpy_fromio(sbk->data, from, len). The function name is highly misguiding (it _never_ does any checksums), the last argument is just a noise and simply expanding the call to memcpy_fromio() gives shorter and more readable source. For a lot of reasons it has almost no remaining users, so it's better to just outright kill it.
