The UV TLB shootdown mechanism needs a system interrupt vector.
Its vector had been hardcoded as 200, but needs to moved to the reserved
system vector range so that it does not collide with some device vector.
This is still temporary until dynamic system IRQ allocation is provided.
But it will be needed when real UV hardware becomes available and runs 2.6.27.

Cyrix MediaGXm/Cx5530 Unicorn Revision 1.19.3B has stopped

> x86: Replace NSC/Cyrix specific chipset access macros by inlined functions.
this commit activated a macro which was dormant before due to (buggy)
macro side-effects.
I've looked through various datasheets and found that the GXm and GXLV
Geode processors don't have an incrementor.
Remove the incrementor setup entirely. As the incrementor value
differs according to clock speed and we would hope that the BIOS
configures it correctly, it is probably the right solution.

This reverts commit 34ae7f35a2, which has
been reported to cause a number of problems. During suspend and resume,
it apparently causes a crash in a CPU hotplug notifier to happen,
although the exact details are sketchy because of the inability to get
good traces during the suspend sequence.

x86 boot: proper use of ARRAY_SIZE instead of repeated E820MAX constant

I tried to fix them in log2.h, but it's difficult because the real mode
environment is completely different from a normal kernel environment. Instead
define an own ARRAY_SIZE macro in boot.h, similar to the other private

The cpu return address and the DMA bus master address are both
guaranteed to be aligned to the smallest PAGE_SIZE order which
is greater than or equal to the requested size. This invariant
exists (for example) to guarantee that if you allocate a chunk
which is smaller than or equal to 64 kilobytes, the extent of the

x86: Fix ioremap off by one BUG
If a kernel thread is preempted in single-cpu mode right after the NOP (nop
about to be turned into a lock prefix), then we CPU hotplug a CPU, and then the
thread is scheduled back again, a SMP-unsafe atomic operation will be used on
shared SMP variables, leading to corruption. No corruption would happen in the
reverse case : going from SMP to UP is ok because we split a bit instruction
into tiny pieces, which does not present this condition.
Changing the 0x90 (single-byte nop) currently used into a 0x3E DS segment
override prefix should fix this issue. Since the default of the atomic
instructions is to use the DS segment anyway, it should not affect the
behavior.
The exception to this are references that use ESP/RSP and EBP/RBP as
the base register (they will use the SS segment), however, in Linux
(a) DS == SS at all times, and (b) we do not distinguish between
segment violations reported as #SS as opposed to #GP, so there is no
need to disassemble the instruction to figure out the suitable segment.
This patch assumes that the 0x3E prefix will leave atomic operations as-is (thus
assuming they normally touch data in the DS segment). Since there seem to be no
obvious ill-use of other segment override prefixes for atomic operations, it
should be safe. It can be verified with a quick
grep -r LOCK_PREFIX include/asm-x86/
grep -A 1 -r LOCK_PREFIX arch/x86/

This source :
AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Volume 3: General-Purpose and System
Instructions
States
"Instructions that Reference a Non-Stack Segment—If an instruction encoding
references any base register other than rBP or rSP, or if an instruction
contains an immediate offset, the default segment is the data segment (DS).
These instructions can use the segment-override prefix to select one of the
non-default segments, as shown in Table 1-5."
Therefore, forcing the DS segment on the atomic operations, which already use
the DS segment, should not change.

"In 64-bit mode, the DS, ES, SS and CS segment-override prefixes have no effect.
These four prefixes are no longer treated as segment-override prefixes in the
context of multipleprefix rules. Instead, they are treated as null prefixes."
This patch applies to 2.6.27-rc2, but would also have to be applied to earlier
kernels (2.6.26, 2.6.25, ...).
Performance impact of the fix : tests done on "xaddq" and "xaddl" shows it
actually improves performances on Intel Xeon, AMD64, Pentium M. It does not
change the performance on Pentium II, Pentium 3 and Pentium 4.

Group Group One (DS prefix) Group Two (nops)
Mean 34.37815 34.37070
SD 0.46108 0.51905
SEM 0.10310 0.11606
N 20 20
P value and statistical significance:
The two-tailed P value equals 0.9620
By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be not statistically significant.
Confidence interval:
The mean of Group One minus Group Two equals 0.00745
95% confidence interval of this difference: From -0.30682 to 0.32172
Intermediate values used in calculations:
t = 0.0480
df = 38
standard error of difference = 0.155
So, unless these calculus are completely bogus, the difference between the nop
and the DS case seems not to be statistically significant.

Jean Delvare's machine triggered this BUG
acpi_os_map_memory phys ffff0000 size 65535
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:233!
with ACPI in the backtrace.
Adding some debugging output showed that ACPI calls
acpi_os_map_memory phys ffff0000 size 65535
And ioremap/PAT does this check in 32bit, so addr+size wraps and the BUG
in reserve_memtype() triggers incorrectly.
BUG_ON(start >= end); /* end is exclusive */
But reserve_memtype already uses u64:
int reserve_memtype(u64 start, u64 end,
so the 32bit truncation must happen in the caller. Presumably in ioremap
when it passes this information to reserve_memtype().
This patch does this computation in 64bit.

Ftrace depends on some processor state that we destroyed during kexec and
restored by restore_processor_state(). So save_processor_state() and
restore_processor_state() are moved into machine_kexec() and ftrace is
restored after restore_processor_state().

Kexec/Kexec-jump require code size in control page is less than
PAGE_SIZE/2. This patch add link-time checking for this.
ASSERT() of ld link script is used as the link-time checking mechanism.

Rename KEXEC_CONTROL_CODE_SIZE to KEXEC_CONTROL_PAGE_SIZE, because control
page is used for not only code on some platform. For example in kexec
jump, it is used for data and stack too.

Highmem code can leave ptes and tlb entries around for a given page even after
kunmap, and after it has been freed.
>From what I can gather, the PAT code may change the cache attributes of
arbitrary physical addresses (ie. including highmem pages), which would result
in aliases in the case that it operates on one of these lazy tlb highmem
pages.
Flushing kmaps should solve the problem.
I've also just added code for conditional flushing if we haven't got
any dangling highmem aliases -- this should help performance if we
change page attributes frequently or systems that aren't using much
highmem pages (eg. if < 4G RAM). Should be turned into 2 patches, but
just for RFC...

Adds a simple IRQ autodetection to the AMD Geode MFGPT driver, and more
importantly, adds some checks, if IRQs can actually be received on the
chosen line. This fixes cases where MFGPT is selected as clocksource
though not producing any ticks, so the kernel simply starves during
boot.

Introduce two APIs for page attribute. flushing tlb/cache in every page
attribute is expensive. AGP gart usually will do a lot of operations to
change a page to uc, new APIs can reduce flush.

Allow x86 to support a built-in kernel command line. The built-in
command line can override the one provided by the boot loader, for
those cases where the boot loader is broken or it is difficult
to change the command line in the the boot loader.

OK. This version changes absolutely nothing if CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not
set (the default). Also, no space is appended even when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
is set, but the builtin string is empty. This is less sloppy all the way
around, IMHO.
Note that I use the same option names as on other arches for
this feature.
