087b255a2b x86, i8259: Only register sysdev if we have a real 8259 PIC
My platform makes use of the null_legacy_pic choice and oopses when doing
a shutdown as the shutdown code goes through all the registered sysdevs
and calls their shutdown method which in my case poke on a non-existing
i8259.  Imho the i8259 specific sysdev should only be registered if the
i8259 is actually there.

Do not register the sysdev function when the null_legacy_pic is used so
that the i8259 resume, suspend and shutdown functions are not called.

f89e048e76 xen: make sure pages are really part of domain before freeing
Scan the set of pages we're freeing and make sure they're actually
owned by the domain before freeing.  This generally won't happen on a
domU (since Xen gives us contigious memory), but it could happen if
there are some hardware mappings passed through.

We only bother going up to the highest page Xen actually claimed to
give us, since there's definitely nothing of ours above that.

093d7b4639 xen: release unused free memory
Scan an e820 table and release any memory which lies between e820 entries,
as it won't be used and would just be wasted.  At present this is just to
release any memory beyond the end of the e820 map, but it will also deal
with holes being punched in the map.

6bad06b768 x86, xsave: Use xsaveopt in context-switch path when supported
xsaveopt is a more optimized form of xsave specifically designed
for the context switch usage. xsaveopt doesn't save the state that's not
modified from the prior xrstor. And if a specific feature state gets
modified to the init state, then xsaveopt just updates the header bit
in the xsave memory layout without updating the corresponding memory
layout.

29104e101d x86, xsave: Sync xsave memory layout with its header for user handling
With xsaveopt, if a processor implementation discern that a processor state
component is in its initialized state it may modify the corresponding bit in
the xsave_hdr.xstate_bv as '0', with out modifying the corresponding memory
layout. Hence wHile presenting the xstate information to the user, we always
ensure that the memory layout of a feature will be in the init state if the
corresponding header bit is zero. This ensures the consistency and avoids the
condition of the user seeing some some stale state in the memory layout during
signal handling, debugging etc.

7f8275d0d6 mm: add context argument to shrinker callback
The current shrinker implementation requires the registered callback
to have global state to work from. This makes it difficult to shrink
caches that are not global (e.g. per-filesystem caches). Pass the shrinker
structure to the callback so that users can embed the shrinker structure
in the context the shrinker needs to operate on and get back to it in the
callback via container_of().

The fixed bar capability structure is searched in PCI extended

ID to begin with otherwise, the search code may stuck in a infinite

fd19dce7ac x86: Fix x2apic preenabled system with kexec
Found one x2apic system kexec loop test failed
when CONFIG_NMI_WATCHDOG=y (old) or CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y (current tip)

first kernel can kexec second kernel, but second kernel can not kexec third one.

it can be duplicated on another system with BIOS preenabled x2apic.
First kernel can not kexec second kernel.

It turns out, when kernel boot with pre-enabled x2apic, it will not execute
disable_local_APIC on shutdown path.

when init_apic_mappings() is called in setup_arch, it will skip setting of
apic_phys when x2apic_mode is set. ( x2apic_mode is much early check_x2apic())
Then later, disable_local_APIC() will bail out early because !apic_phys.

So check !x2apic_mode in x2apic_mode in disable_local_APIC with !apic_phys.

another solution could be updating init_apic_mappings() to set apic_phys even
for preenabled x2apic system. Actually even for x2apic system, that lapic
address is mapped already in early stage.

BTW: is there any x2apic preenabled system with apicid of boot cpu > 255?

58c84eda07 PCI: fall back to original BIOS BAR addresses
If we fail to assign resources to a PCI BAR, this patch makes us try the
original address from BIOS rather than leaving it disabled.

Linux tries to make sure all PCI device BARs are inside the upstream
PCI host bridge or P2P bridge apertures, reassigning BARs if necessary.
Windows does similar reassignment.

Before this patch, if we could not move a BAR into an aperture, we left
the resource unassigned, i.e., at address zero.  Windows leaves such BARs
at the original BIOS addresses, and this patch makes Linux do the same.

This is a bit ugly because we disable the resource long before we try to
reassign it, so we have to keep track of the BIOS BAR address somewhere.
For lack of a better place, I put it in the struct pci_dev.

I think it would be cleaner to attempt the assignment immediately when the
claim fails, so we could easily remember the original address.  But we
currently claim motherboard resources in the middle, after attempting to
claim PCI resources and before assigning new PCI resources, and changing
that is a fairly big job.

08be97962b x86: Force HPET readback_cmp for all ATI chipsets
commit 30a564be (x86, hpet: Restrict read back to affected ATI
chipset) restricted the workaround for the HPET bug to SMX00
chipsets. This was reasonable as those were the only ones against
which we ever got a bug report.

Stephan Wolf reported now that this patch breaks his IXP400 based
machine. Though it's confirmed to work on other IXP400 based systems.

To error out on the safe side, we force the HPET readback workaround
for all ATI SMbus class chipsets.

ffa71f33a8 x86, ioremap: Fix incorrect physical address handling in PAE mode
Current x86 ioremap() doesn't handle physical address higher than
32-bit properly in X86_32 PAE mode. When physical address higher than
32-bit is passed to ioremap(), higher 32-bits in physical address is
cleared wrongly. Due to this bug, ioremap() can map wrong address to
linear address space.

In my case, 64-bit MMIO region was assigned to a PCI device (ioat
device) on my system. Because of the ioremap()'s bug, wrong physical
address (instead of MMIO region) was mapped to linear address space.
Because of this, loading ioatdma driver caused unexpected behavior
(kernel panic, kernel hangup, ...).

c516ac5839 x86: Add i8042 pre-detection hook to x86_platform_ops
Some x86 platforms like Intel MID platforms don't have i8042 controllers,
and i8042 driver's probe to some legacy IO ports may hang the MID
processor. With this hook, i8042 driver can runtime check and skip the
probe when the pretection fail which also saves some probe time

[ hpa note: this is currently a compile-time check, which breaks the
  i386 allyesconfig build.  This patch series thus does fix a regression. ]

83a7a2ad2a x86, alternatives: Use 16-bit numbers for cpufeature index
We already have cpufeature indicies above 255, so use a 16-bit number
for the alternatives index.  This consumes a padding field and so
doesn't add any size, but it means that abusing the padding field to
create assembly errors on overflow no longer works.  We can retain the
test simply by redirecting it to the .discard section, however.

[ v3: updated to include open-coded locations ]

8e221b6db4 x86: Avoid unnecessary __clear_user() and xrstor in signal handling
fxsave/xsave doesn't touch all the bytes in the memory layout used by
these instructions. Specifically SW reserved (bytes 464..511) fields
in the fxsave frame and the reserved fields in the xsave header.

To present a clean context for the signal handling, just clear these fields
instead of clearing the complete fxsave/xsave memory layout, when we dump these
registers directly to the user signal frame.

Also avoid the call to second xrstor (which inits the state not passed
in the signal frame) in restore_user_xstate() if all the state has already
been restored by the first xrstor.

These changes improve the performance of signal handling(by ~3-5% as measured
by the lat_sig).

da38f43859 KVM: VMX: Fix host MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE corruption
enter_lmode() and exit_lmode() modify the guest's EFER.LMA before calling
vmx_set_efer().  However, the latter function depends on the value of EFER.LMA
to determine whether MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE needs reloading, via
vmx_load_host_state().  With EFER.LMA changing under its feet, it took the
wrong choice and corrupted userspace's %gs.

This causes 32-on-64 host userspace to fault.

Fix not touching EFER.LMA; instead ask vmx_set_efer() to change it.

b945d6b255 rbtree: Undo augmented trees performance damage and regression
Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches
all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path).

This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and
relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to
correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for
the damage done by the tree rotations.

For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new
node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest
node in the path from the to be removed node that will still
be around after the removal.

[ This patch also fixes a video driver regression reported by
  Ali Gholami Rudi - the memtype->subtree_max_end was updated
  incorrectly. ]

39ef13a4ac perf, x86: P4 PMU -- redesign cache events
To support cache events we have reserved the low 6 bits in
hw_perf_event::config (which is a part of CCCR register
configuration actually).

These bits represent Replay Event mertic enumerated in
enum P4_PEBS_METRIC. The caller should not care about
which exact bits should be set and how -- the caller
just chooses one P4_PEBS_METRIC entity and puts it into
the config. The kernel will track it and set appropriate
additional MSR registers (metrics) when needed.

The reason for this redesign was the PEBS enable bit, which
should not be set until DS (and PEBS sampling) support will
be implemented properly.

TODO
====

 - PEBS sampling (note it's tricky and works with _one_ counter only
   so for HT machines it will be not that easy to handle both threads)

 - tracking of PEBS registers state, a user might need to turn
   PEBS off completely (ie no PEBS enable, no UOP_tag) but some
   other event may need it, such events clashes and should not
   run simultaneously, at moment we just don't support such events

 - eventually export user space bits in separate header which will
   allow user apps to configure raw events more conveniently.
