If the firmware page size used for collaborative memory overcommit
is 4k, but the kernel is using 64k pages, the page loaning is currently
broken as it only marks the first 4k page of each 64k page as loaned.
This fixes this to iterate through each 4k page and mark them all as
loaned/active.

The intent of "flush_tlbs" is to invalidate all TLB entries by doing a
TLB invalidate instruction for all pages in the address range 0 to
0x00400000. A loop counter is set up at the high value and
decremented by page size. However, the loop is only done once as the
sense of the conditional branch at the loop end does not match the
setup/decrement. This fixes it to do the whole range by correcting
the branch condition.

When we fork, init_new_context() improperly resets the vdso_base
of the new context to 0. That means that the new process loses
access to the vdso for signal trampolines.
The initialization should be unnecessary anyway as the context
on a fresh mm should be 0 in the first place and binfmt_elf
will initialize that value for a newly loaded process.

This patch changes GART IOMMU to return a size aligned address wrt
dma_alloc_coherent, as DMA-mapping.txt defines:
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
buffer you receive will not cross a 64K boundary.

With gcc 4.3 and later, a pointer that has already been dereferenced is
assumed not to be null since it should have caused a segmentation fault
otherwise, hence any subsequent test against NULL is optimized away.
Current inline asm constraint used in the implementation of prefetch()
makes gcc believe that the pointer is dereferenced even though the PLD
instruction does not load any data and does not cause a segmentation
fault on null pointers, which causes all sorts of interesting results
when reaching the end of a linked lists for example.
Let's use a better constraint to properly represent the actual usage of
the pointer value.

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/

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.

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.

The function set_pte_vaddr_pud() references
the function __init spp_getpage().
This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of spp_getpage is wrong.
spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and
non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init.
Unfortunately it calls alloc_bootmem_pages which is __init,
but does it only when bootmem allocator is available (after_bootmem == 0).
So annotate it accordingly.

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.

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

prefill_possible_map() is defined inside CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU,
so the nesting CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is just redundant.

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.

Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo?
I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers,
but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage.
If they are to stay, here are some fixes.
1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to
mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users.
2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G,
so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled.
3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages
messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow.
4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which
explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative):
because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted.
My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G,
and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

When a CPU core is shut down, all of its caches need to be flushed
to prevent stale data from causing errors if the core is resumed.
Current Linux suspend code performs an assignment after the flush,
which can add dirty data back to the cache. On some AMD platforms,
additional speculative reads have caused crashes on resume because
of this dirty data.
Relocate the cache flush to be the very last thing done before
halting. Tie into an assembly line so the compile will not
reorder it. Add some documentation explaining what is going
on and why we're doing this.

Currently, setup_p4_watchdog() use CCCR_OVF_PMI1 to enable the counter
overflow interrupts to the second logical core. But this bit doesn't work
on Pentium 4 Ds (model 4, stepping 4) and this patch avoids its use on
these processors. Tested on 4 different machines that have this
specific model with success.

If sysfs registration fails all memory used by IOMMU is freed. This
happens after dma_ops initialization and the functions will access the
freed memory then.
Fix this by initializing dma_ops after the sysfs registration.
