Add interleaved NUMA emulation support
This patch interleaves emulated nodes over the system's physical
nodes. This is required for interleave optimizations since
mempolicies, for example, operate by iterating over a nodemask and
act without knowledge of node distances. It can also be used for
testing memory latencies and NUMA bugs in the kernel.
There're a couple of ways to do this:
- divide the number of emulated nodes by the number of physical
nodes and allocate the result on each physical node, or
- allocate each successive emulated node on a different physical
node until all memory is exhausted.
The disadvantage of the first option is, depending on the asymmetry
in node capacities of each physical node, emulated nodes may
substantially differ in size on a particular physical node compared
to another.
The disadvantage of the second option is, also depending on the
asymmetry in node capacities of each physical node, there may be
more emulated nodes allocated on a single physical node as another.
This patch implements the second option; we sacrifice the
possibility that we may have slightly more emulated nodes on a
particular physical node compared to another in lieu of node size
asymmetry.
[ Note that "node capacity" of a physical node is not only a
function of its addressable range, but also is affected by
subtracting out the amount of reserved memory over that range.
NUMA emulation only deals with available, non-reserved memory
quantities. ]
We ensure there is at least a minimal amount of available memory
allocated to each node. We also make sure that at least this
amount of available memory is available in ZONE_DMA32 for any node
that includes both ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL.
This patch also cleans the emulation code up by no longer passing
the statically allocated struct bootnode array among the various
functions. This init.data array is not allocated on the stack since
it may be very large and thus it may be accessed at file scope.
The WARN_ON() for nodes_cover_memory() when faking proximity
domains is removed since it relies on successive nodes always
having greater start addresses than previous nodes; with
interleaving this is no longer always true.

This is the counterpart to "x86: export k8 physical topology" for
SRAT. It is not as invasive because the acpi code already seperates
node setup into detection and registration steps, with the
exception of registering e820 active regions in
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init(). This is now moved to
acpi_scan_nodes() if NUMA emulation is disabled or deferred.
acpi_numa_init() now returns a value which specifies whether an
underlying SRAT was located. If so, that topology can be used by
the emulation code to interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes
or to register the nodes for ACPI.
acpi_get_nodes() may now be used to export the srat physical
topology of the machine for NUMA emulation.

To eventually interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes, we
need to know the physical topology of the machine without actually
registering it. This does the k8 node setup in two parts:
detection and registration. NUMA emulation can then used the
physical topology detected to setup the address ranges of emulated
nodes accordingly. If emulation isn't used, the k8 nodes are
registered as normal.
Two formals are added to the x86 NUMA setup functions: `acpi' and
`k8'. These represent whether ACPI or K8 NUMA has been detected;
both cannot be true at the same time. This specifies to the NUMA
emulation code whether an underlying physical NUMA topology exists
and which interface to use.
This patch deals solely with separating the k8 setup path into
Northbridge detection and registration steps and leaves the ACPI
changes for a subsequent patch. The `acpi' formal is added here,
however, to avoid touching all the header files again in the next
patch.
This approach also ensures emulated nodes will not span physical
nodes so the true memory latency is not misrepresented.
k8_get_nodes() may now be used to export the k8 physical topology
of the machine for NUMA emulation.

Move compat_start_thread() to process_64.c, remove gratuitious

In particular, compat_start_thread() didn't do free_thread_xstate(),
which means it was hanging on to the xstate store area even when it
was not needed. It was also not setting old_rsp, but it looks like
that generally shouldn't matter for a 32-bit process.

On some Intel processors, not all events can be measured in all
counters. Some events can only be measured in one particular
counter, for instance. Assigning an event to the wrong counter does
not crash the machine but this yields bogus counts, i.e., silent
error.
This patch changes the event to counter assignment logic to take
into account event constraints for Intel P6, Core and Nehalem
processors. There is no contraints on Intel Atom. There are
constraints on Intel Yonah (Core Duo) but they are not provided in
this patch given that this processor is not yet supported by
perf_events.
As a result of the constraints, it is possible for some event
groups to never actually be loaded onto the PMU if they contain two
events which can only be measured on a single counter. That
situation can be detected with the scaling information extracted
with read().

Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a
problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also
reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using
iwlagn.
It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get
checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic
timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other
wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible.
The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer
interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that:
1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less
2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because
the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up.
I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the
original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported
success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec
range.

Remove the big kernel lock from msr_open() as it doesn't protect
anything there.
The only racy event that can happen here is a concurrent cpu shutdown.
So let's look at what could be racy during/after the above event:
- The cpu_online() check is racy, but the bkl doesn't help about
that anyway it disables preemption but we may be chcking another
cpu than the current one.
Also the cpu can still become offlined between open and read calls.
- The cpu_data(cpu) returns a safe pointer too. It won't be released on
cpu offlining. But some fields can be changed from
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:remove_siblinginfo() :
- phys_proc_id
- cpu_core_id
Those are not read from msr_open(). What we are checking is the
x86_capability that is left untouched on offlining.
So this removal looks safe.

For automated testing it is useful to have the option to turn
the warnings on copy_from_user() etc checks into errors:
In function ‘copy_from_user’,
inlined from ‘fd_copyin’ at drivers/block/floppy.c:3080,
inlined from ‘fd_ioctl’ at drivers/block/floppy.c:3503:
linux/arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h:213:
error: call to ‘copy_from_user_overflow’ declared with attribute error:
copy_from_user buffer size is not provably correct

Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a
non-default callback only on CPU families which support it.
While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE
code i also noticed a few other things and made the following
cleanups/fixes:
- Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not
good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be
overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not
good, obviously.
- The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h.
- Added the more correct fallback printk of:
No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type.
Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode.
On CPUs that dont have a decoder.
- Made the surrounding code more readable.
Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback -
without having to check the CPU versions during the printout
itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the
decode-print function.
(there's no unregister needed as this is core code.)
version -v2 by Borislav Petkov:
- add K8 to the set of supported CPUs
- always build in edac_mce_amd since we use an early_initcall now
- fix checkpatch warnings

Just like ip_fast_csum, the assembly snippet in csum_ipv6_magic needs a
memory clobber, as it is only passed the address of the buffer, not a
memory reference to the buffer itself.
This caused failures in Hurd's pfinetv4 when we tried to compile it with
gcc-4.3 (bogus checksums).
