physid_mask_of_physid() causes a huge stack (12k) to be created if the
number of APICS is large. Replace physid_mask_of_physid() with a
new function that does not create large stacks. This is a problem only
on large x86_64 systems.
this paves the way to increase MAX_APICS.

TLB shootdown for SGI UV.
Depends on patch (in tip/x86/irq):
x86-update-macros-used-by-uv-platform.patch Jack Steiner May 29
This patch provides the ability to flush TLB's in cpu's that are not on
the local node. The hardware mechanism for distributing the flush
messages is the UV's "broadcast assist unit".
The hook to intercept TLB shootdown requests is a 2-line change to
native_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_64.c).
This code has been tested on a hardware simulator. The real hardware
is not yet available.
The shootdown statistics are provided through /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics.
The use of /sys was considered, but would have required the use of
many /sys files. The debugfs was also considered, but these statistics
should be available on an ongoing basis, not just for debugging.
Issues to be fixed later:
- The IRQ for the messaging interrupt is currently hardcoded as 200
(see UV_BAU_MESSAGE). It should be dynamically assigned in the future.
- The use of appropriate udelay()'s is untested, as they are a problem
in the simulator.

This patch uses reserve_bootmem_generic() instead of reserve_bootmem()
to reserve the crashkernel memory on x86_64. That's necessary for NUMA
machines, see 00212fef81:
[PATCH] Fix kdump Crash Kernel boot memory reservation for NUMA machines
This patch will fix a boot memory reservation bug that trashes memory on
the ES7000 when loading the kdump crash kernel.
The code in arch/x86_64/kernel/setup.c to reserve boot memory for the crash
kernel uses the non-numa aware "reserve_bootmem" function instead of the
NUMA aware "reserve_bootmem_generic". I checked to make sure that no other
function was using "reserve_bootmem" and found none, except the ones that
had NUMA ifdef'ed out.
I have tested this patch only on an ES7000 with NUMA on and off (numa=off)
in a single (non-NUMA) and multi-cell (NUMA) configurations.

It also changes all users to use BOOTMEM_DEFAULT, which doesn't effectively
change the behaviour. Since the change is x86-specific, I don't think it's
necessary to add a new API for migration. There are only 4 users of that
function.

* Remove the boot_cpu_pda array and pointer table from the data section.
Allocate the pointer table and array during init. do_boot_cpu()
will reallocate the pda in node local memory and if the cpu is being
brought up before the bootmem array is released (after_bootmem = 0),
then it will free the initial pda. This will happen for all cpus
present at system startup.
This removes 512k + 32k bytes from the data section.

* Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU". This is
used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed
before there are per_cpu areas allocated.
["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu
areas have been setup".]
This patchset adds these new macros:
DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue)
EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name)
DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name)
early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)
early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx)
early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu)
The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early
map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map
elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to
the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early
pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map
but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After
that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable.
The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to
access the variable if you have a function that can be called both
"early" and "late". It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not
then it's still valid. Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used
instead:
#define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) \
(early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ? \
early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] : \
per_cpu(_name, _cpu))
A better method is to actually check the pointer manually. In the
case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late":
void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node)
{
int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map);
if (cpu_to_node_map)
cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node;
else
per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node;
}
* Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers
to topology cpumask_t maps are available. Otherwise, use the function
returning the cpumask_t value. This is useful if cpumask_t set size
is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack.
* The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while
the non-debug case has been optimized a bit.
* Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c
* Clean up #ifdef in setup.c

Ok, I think I found it. In check_nmi_watchdog():
for (cpu = 0; cpu < NR_CPUS; cpu++)
prev_nmi_count[cpu] = cpu_pda(cpu)->__nmi_count;
As I mentioned it works fine on both of my systems so could you try it out?
