On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to
include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user
calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr).
This patch adds a hook for architectures that set
CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also
updatee their copy in the vdso.

Use temporary page tables for the kernel text mapping during hibernation
restore on x86_64.
Without the patch, the original boot kernel's page tables that represent the
kernel text mapping are used while the core of the image kernel is being
restored. However, in principle, if the boot kernel is not identical to the
image kernel, the location of these page tables in the image kernel need not
be the same, so we should create a safe copy of the kernel text mapping prior
to restoring the core of the image kernel.

Since we already pass the address of restore_registers() in the image header,
we can also pass the value of the CR3 register from before the hibernation in
the same way. This will allow us to avoid using init_level4_pgt page tables
during the restore.

Make it possible to restore a hibernation image on x86_64 with the help of a
kernel different from the one in the image.
The idea is to split the core restoration code into two separate parts and to
place each of them in a different page. The first part belongs to the boot
kernel and is executed as the last step of the image kernel's memory
restoration procedure. Before being executed, it is relocated to a safe page
that won't be overwritten while copying the image kernel pages.
The final operation performed by it is a jump to the second part of the core
restoration code that belongs to the image kernel and has just been restored.
This code makes the CPU switch to the image kernel's page tables and restores
the state of general purpose registers (including the stack pointer) from
before the hibernation.
The main issue with this idea is that in order to jump to the second part of
the core restoration code the boot kernel needs to know its address.
However, this address may be passed to it in the image header. Namely, the
part of the image header previously used for checking if the version of the
image kernel is correct can be replaced with some architecture specific data
that will allow the boot kernel to jump to the right address within the image
kernel. These data should also be used for checking if the image kernel is
compatible with the boot kernel (as far as the memory restroration procedure
is concerned). It can be done, for example, with the help of a "magic" value
that has to be equal in both kernels, so that they can be regarded as
compatible.

I can't see the reason ". = VDSO_PRELINK + 0x900;" was ever there in
the linker script for the x86_64 vDSO. I can't find anything that
depends on this magic offset, or that should care at all about the
particular location of of the .data section (all from vvar.c) in the
vDSO image. If it is really desireable to place .data at 0x900, then it
should be after all the other sections so they fill in the space up to
0x900.
This removes the 0x900 magic and cleans up the output sections generally
in the vDSO linker script. This saves a few hundred bytes in the size
of the vDSO file, bringing it back well under 4kb total so that its vma
only needs one page.

Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts.
/proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by
the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting.
This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64
platforms, as appropriate:
rescheduling interrupts
TLB flush interrupts
function call interrupts
thermal event interrupts
threshold interrupts
spurious interrupts
A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too
high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional
ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC
failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail.
Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been
exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated
when the temperature drops back to a normal level.
A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the
device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees
the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case
the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff.
Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to
another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used
to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring.
AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks
AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts
AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.

In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using
NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0. Not only will most (99%?) of the
systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS
is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a
number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when
these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes.
Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu
accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu
does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node. Of course, if
the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still
require cross node exchanges of cache lines. A common use of this is
for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus
local to that node.
Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu
data area. In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is
referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup. In this case, a
static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the
booting cpu (BSP). The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after
it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest
of the __initdata.
This patch:
Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of
via the cpu_to_node macro. This is preparation to moving it to the
per_cpu data area.

This patch fixes a bug of change_page_attr/change_page_attr_addr on
Intel x86_64 CPUs. After changing page attribute to be executable with
these functions, the page remains un-executable on Intel x86_64 CPU.
Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level
page tables are cleared, the corresponding page is executable (refer to
section 4.13.2 of Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's
Manual). So, the bug is fixed through clearing the "NX" bit of PMD when
splitting the huge PMD.

if CONFIG_PAGEALLOC is enabled then X86_FEATURE_PSE is disabled and all
the kernel physical RAM pagetables are set up as 4K pages. This is
needed so that CONFIG_PAGEALLOC can do finegrained mapping and unmapping
of pages.
as a side-effect though, the total size of memory allocated as kernel
pagetables increases significantly. All these pagetables are allocated
via alloc_bootmem_low_pages(), straight out of the lowmem DMA pool. If
the system has enough RAM and a large kernel image then almost all of
the 16 MB lowmem DMA pool is allocated to the image and to pagetables -
leaving no space for __GFP_DMA allocations.
this results in drivers failing and the bootup hanging:

=======================
the fix is to first allocate from above the DMA pool, and if that fails
(for example due to it being a machine with less than 16 MB of RAM),
allocate from the DMA pool as a fallback.
With this fix applied i was able to boot a PAGEALLOC=y kernel that would

This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a
vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system.
makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a
small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To
distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging
information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is
hard to install it into each system.
To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As
the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump
filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file
and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel.

For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core. This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced. Specifically:
1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
restrictions.
2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
user space helper as an argv array. The real core limit of the uid of the
crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
is overridden to zero when called).
3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
crash. Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
deadlock.
This patch:
Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe. In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all

When a pagetable is created, it is made globally visible in the rmap
prio tree before it is pinned via arch_dup_mmap(), and remains in the
rmap tree while it is unpinned with arch_exit_mmap().
This means that other CPUs may race with the pinning/unpinning
process, and see a pte between when it gets marked RO and actually
pinned, causing any pte updates to fail with write-protect faults.
As a result, all pte pages must be properly locked, and only unlocked
once the pinning/unpinning process has finished.
In order to avoid taking spinlocks for the whole pagetable - which may
overflow the PREEMPT_BITS portion of preempt counter - it locks and pins
each pte page individually, and then finally pins the whole pagetable.

When a pagetable is no longer in use, it must be unpinned so that its
pages can be freed. However, this is only possible if there are no
stray uses of the pagetable. The code currently deals with all the
usual cases, but there's a rare case where a vcpu is changing cr3, but
is doing so lazily, and the change hasn't actually happened by the time
the pagetable is unpinned, even though it appears to have been completed.
This change adds a second per-cpu cr3 variable - xen_current_cr3 -
which tracks the actual state of the vcpu cr3. It is only updated once
the actual hypercall to set cr3 has been completed. Other processors
wishing to unpin a pagetable can check other vcpu's xen_current_cr3
values to see if any cross-cpu IPIs are needed to clean things up.

Currently, the set_lazy_mode pv_op is overloaded with 5 functions:
1. enter lazy cpu mode
2. leave lazy cpu mode
3. enter lazy mmu mode
4. leave lazy mmu mode
5. flush pending batched operations
This complicates each paravirt backend, since it needs to deal with
all the possible state transitions, handling flushing, etc. In
particular, flushing is quite distinct from the other 4 functions, and
seems to just cause complication.
This patch removes the set_lazy_mode operation, and adds "enter" and
"leave" lazy mode operations on mmu_ops and cpu_ops. All the logic
associated with enter and leaving lazy states is now in common code
(basically BUG_ONs to make sure that no mode is current when entering
a lazy mode, and make sure that the mode is current when leaving).
Also, flush is handled in a common way, by simply leaving and
re-entering the lazy mode.
The result is that the Xen, lguest and VMI lazy mode implementations
are much simpler.

This patch refactors the paravirt_ops structure into groups of
functionally related ops:
pv_info - random info, rather than function entrypoints
pv_init_ops - functions used at boot time (some for module_init too)
pv_misc_ops - lazy mode, which didn't fit well anywhere else
pv_time_ops - time-related functions
pv_cpu_ops - various privileged instruction ops
pv_irq_ops - operations for managing interrupt state
pv_apic_ops - APIC operations
pv_mmu_ops - operations for managing pagetables
There are several motivations for this:
1. Some of these ops will be general to all x86, and some will be
i386/x86-64 specific. This makes it easier to share common stuff
while allowing separate implementations where needed.
2. At the moment we must export all of paravirt_ops, but modules only
need selected parts of it. This allows us to export on a case by case
basis (and also choose which export license we want to apply).
3. Functional groupings make things a bit more readable.
Struct paravirt_ops is now only used as a template to generate
patch-site identifiers, and to extract function pointers for inserting
into jmp/calls when patching. It is only instantiated when needed.
