P6_NOPs are definitely not supported on some VIA CPUs, and possibly
(unverified) on AMD K7s. It is also the only thing that prevents a
686 kernel from running on Transmeta TM3x00/5x00 (Crusoe) series.
The performance benefit over generic NOPs is very small, so when
building for generic consumption, avoid using them.

We have been promoting Transmeta TM3x00/TM5x00 chips to i686-class
based on the notion that they contain all the user-space visible
features of an i686-class chip. However, this is not actually true:
they lack the EA-taking long NOPs (0F 1F /0). Since this is a
userspace-visible incompatibility, downgrade these CPUs to the
manufacturer-defined i586 level.

Use PF_MEMALLOC to prevent recursive calls in the DBEUG_PAGEALLOC
case. This makes the code simpler and more robust against allocation
failures.
This fixes the following fallback to non-mmconfig:

Hi all,
Beginning from commits close to v2.6.25-rc2, running lguest always oopses
the host kernel. Oops is at [1].
Bisection led to the following commit:
commit 37cc8d7f96
x86/early_ioremap: don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir
At the early stages of boot, before the kernel pagetable has been
fully initialized, a Xen kernel will still be running off the
Xen-provided pagetables rather than swapper_pg_dir[]. Therefore,
readback cr3 to determine the base of the pagetable rather than
assuming swapper_pg_dir[].
static inline pmd_t * __init early_ioremap_pmd(unsigned long addr)
{
- pgd_t *pgd = &swapper_pg_dir[pgd_index(addr)];
+ /* Don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir at this point */
+ pgd_t *base = __va(read_cr3());
+ pgd_t *pgd = &base[pgd_index(addr)];
pud_t *pud = pud_offset(pgd, addr);
pmd_t *pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr);
Trying to analyze the problem, it seems on the guest side of lguest,
%cr3 has a different value from &swapper_pg-dir (which
is AFAIK fine on a pravirt guest):
Putting some debugging messages in early_ioremap_pmd:
/* Appears 3 times */
[ 0.000000] ***************************
[ 0.000000] __va(%cr3) = c0000000, &swapper_pg_dir = c02cc000
[ 0.000000] ***************************
After 8 hours of debugging and staring on lguest code, I noticed something
strange in paravirt_ops->set_pmd hypercall invocation:
static void lguest_set_pmd(pmd_t *pmdp, pmd_t pmdval)
{
*pmdp = pmdval;
lazy_hcall(LHCALL_SET_PMD, __pa(pmdp)&PAGE_MASK,
(__pa(pmdp)&(PAGE_SIZE-1))/4, 0);
}
The first hcall parameter is global pgdir which looks fine. The second
parameter is the pmd index in the pgdir which is suspectful.
AFAIK, calculating the index of pmd does not need a divisoin over four.
Removing the division made lguest work fine again . Patch is at [2].
I am not sure why the division over four existed in the first place. It
seems bogus, maybe the Xen patch just made the problem appear ?
[2]: The patch:
[PATCH] lguest: fix pgdir pmd index cacluation
Remove an error in index calculation which leads to removing
a not existing shadow page table (leading to a Null dereference).

The function cpu_thread_mask_to_cores() which returns a cpumask
of one and only one thread enabled for a given core has a bug
as it's shifting things in the wrong direction.
Note: The implementation is still sub-optimal in the sense that
for a given core, the thread set in the result may not be any of
the threads set in the input, which can lead to more IPIs then
strictly necessary, but it isn't incorrect per-se. I'll improve
that later.

m8xx_setup.c says:
/* Force all 8xx processors to use divide by 16 processor clock. */
And at the same time it is using bus-frequency for calculating
timebase. It is okay for most setups because bus-frequency is
equal to clock-frequency.
The problem emerges when cpu frequency is > 66MHz, quoting
u-boot/cpu/mpc8xx/speed.c:
if (gd->cpu_clk <= 66000000) {
sccr_reg |= SCCR_EBDF00; /* bus division factor = 1 */
gd->bus_clk = gd->cpu_clk;
} else {
sccr_reg |= SCCR_EBDF01; /* bus division factor = 2 */
gd->bus_clk = gd->cpu_clk / 2;
}
So in case of cpu clock > 66MHz, bus_clk = cpu_clk / 2. An then, from
Linux, we calculate timebase frequency as tb_freq = bus_clk / 16,
that is cpu_clk / 2 / 16, which is wrong.
This fixes the system time drifting problem on the EP885C board
running at 133MHz.

contained some bugs which were revealed by the update of the kobj code
for the current release series. Unfortunately those bugs also helped
ensure maple devices were properly detected. This patch (against the

A single entry (addr 0x10001000, size 0x2000) will get converted to
page address 0x10000000 with a page size of 0x4000. The code as it
stands doesn't address the single buffer case, but in fact it allows
the subsequent single-buffer special case to be eliminated entirely.
Because the mask now includes the (page adjusted) starting and ending
addresses, the general case works for the single buffer case as well.

Reading /proc/<pid>/latency or /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/latency could cause
NULL pointer dereference.
In lstats_open(), get_proc_task() can return NULL, in which case the kernel
will oops at lstats_show_proc() because m->private is NULL.
When get_proc_task() returns NULL, the kernel should return -ENOENT.
This can be reproduced by the following script.
while :
do
date
bash -c 'ls > ls.$$' &
pid=$!
cat /proc/$pid/latency &
cat /proc/$pid/latency &
