Actually, on 386, cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local fall back on
cmpxchg_386_u8/16/32: it disables interruptions around non atomic
updates to mimic the cmpxchg behavior.
The comment:
/* Poor man's cmpxchg for 386. Unsuitable for SMP */
already present in cmpxchg_386_u32 tells much about how this cmpxchg
implementation should not be used in a SMP context. However, the cmpxchg_local
can perfectly use this fallback, since it only needs to be atomic wrt the local
cpu.
This patch adds a cmpxchg_486_u64 and uses it as a fallback for cmpxchg64
and cmpxchg64_local on 80386 and 80486.
Q:
but why is it called cmpxchg_486 when the other functions are called
A:
Because the standard cmpxchg is missing only on 386, but cmpxchg8b is
missing both on 386 and 486.
Citing Intel's Instruction set reference:
cmpxchg:
This instruction is not supported on Intel processors earlier than the
Intel486 processors.
cmpxchg8b:
This instruction encoding is not supported on Intel processors earlier
than the Pentium processors.
Q:
What's the reason to have cmpxchg64_local on 32 bit architectures?
Without that need all this would just be a few simple defines.
A:
cmpxchg64_local on 32 bits architectures takes unsigned long long
parameters, but cmpxchg_local only takes longs. Since we have cmpxchg8b
to execute a 8 byte cmpxchg atomically on pentium and +, it makes sense
to provide a flavor of cmpxchg and cmpxchg_local using this instruction.
Also, for 32 bits architectures lacking the 64 bits atomic cmpxchg, it
makes sense _not_ to define cmpxchg64 while cmpxchg could still be
available.
Moreover, the fallback for cmpxchg8b on i386 for 386 and 486 is a
However, cmpxchg64_local will be emulated by disabling interrupts on all
architectures where it is not supported atomically.
Therefore, we *could* turn cmpxchg64_local into a cmpxchg_local, but it
would make the 386/486 fallbacks ugly, make its design different from
cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 (which really depends on atomic operations and cannot
be emulated) and require the __cmpxchg_local to be expressed as a macro
rather than an inline function so the parameters would not be fixed to
unsigned long long in every case.
So I think cmpxchg64_local makes sense there, but I am open to
suggestions.
Q:
Are there any callers?
A:
I am actually using it in LTTng in my timestamping code. I use it to
work around CPUs with asynchronous TSCs. I need to update 64 bits
values atomically on this 32 bits architecture.

The fs_base and gs_base fields are available in user_regs_struct.
But reading these via ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGS or PTRACE_PEEKUSR) does
not give a reliably useful value. The thread_struct fields are 0
when do_arch_prctl decided to use a GDT slot instead of MSR_FS_BASE,
which it does for a value under 1<<32.
This changes ptrace access to fs_base and gs_base to work like
PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL does. That is, it reads the base address that
user-mode memory access using the fs/gs instruction prefixes will
use, regardless of how it's being implemented in the kernel. The
MSR vs GDT is an implementation detail that is pretty much hidden
from userland in the actual using, and there is no reason that
ptrace should give the internal implementation picture rather than
the user-mode semantic picture. In the case of setting the value,
this can implicitly change the fsindex/gsindex value (also
separately in user_regs_struct), which is what happens when the
thread calls arch_prctl itself. In a PTRACE_SETREGS, the fs_base
change will come after the fsindex change due to the order of the
struct, and so a change the debugger made to fs_base will have the
effect intended, another part of the user_regs_struct will now
differ when read back from what the debugger wrote.
This makes PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL obsolete. We could consider declaring
it deprecated and removing it one day, though there is no hurry.
For the foreseeable future, debuggers have to assume an old kernel
that does not report reliable fs_base/gs_base values in user_regs_struct
and stick to PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL anyway.

Some assembler versions automagically optimize .eh_frame contents,

This ran afoul of the wired constant for padding out the other vDSO
images to match its size. This changes the original hand-coded
source to use the optimal format encoding for its operations. That
leaves nothing more for a fancy assembler to do, so the sizes will
match the wired-in expected size regardless of the assembler version.

This reorders the code in the 32-bit vDSO images to put the signal
trampolines first and __kernel_vsyscall after them. The order does
not matter to userland, it just uses what AT_SYSINFO or e_entry
says. Since the signal trampolines are the same size in both
versions of the vDSO, putting them first is the simplest way to get
the addresses to line up. This makes it work to use a more compact
layout for the vDSO.

This makes x86_64's ia32 emulation support share the sources used in the
32-bit kernel for the 32-bit vDSO and much of its setup code.
The 32-bit vDSO mapping now behaves the same on x86_64 as on native 32-bit.
The abi.syscall32 sysctl on x86_64 now takes the same values that
vm.vdso_enabled takes on the 32-bit kernel. That is, 1 means a randomized
vDSO location, 2 means the fixed old address. The CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO
option is now available to make this the default setting, the same meaning
it has for the 32-bit kernel. (This does not affect the 64-bit vDSO.)
The argument vdso32=[012] can be used on both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels to
set this paramter at boot time. The vdso=[012] argument still does this
same thing on the 32-bit kernel.

instruction to use stored fields rather than constants for the
user-mode return address, as the 32-bit kernel does. This adds a
sysenter_return field to struct thread_info, as 32-bit has. There
is no observable effect from this yet. It makes the assembly code
independent of the 32-bit vDSO mapping address, paving the way for
making the vDSO address vary as it does on the 32-bit kernel.

(The dumper is the code where emacs effectively dumps core at the end of it's
compilation stage; this coredump is then loaded as the main program during
normal use)
iirc this was 5 years or so; we found this way back when I was at RH and we
first did the security stuff there (including this brk randomization). It
wasn't all variants of emacs, and it got fixed as a result (I vaguely remember
that emacs already had code to deal with it for other archs/oses, just
ifdeffed wrongly).
It's a rare and wrong assumption as a general thing, just on x86 it mostly
happened to be true (but to be honest, it'll break too if gcc does
something fancy or if the linker does a non-standard order). Still its
something we should at least document.
Note 2: afaik it only broke the emacs *build*. I'm not 100% sure about that
(it IS 5 years ago) though.

Earlier patch added IO APIC setup into local APIC setup. This caused
modpost warnings. Fix them by untangling setup_local_APIC() and splitting
it into smaller functions. The IO APIC initialization is only called
for the BP init.
Also removed some outdated debugging code and minor cleanup.

Contrary to the comment "newer gccs do it by default", newer gcc versions
default to -maccumulate-outgoing-args only with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n,
and then only with some CPU settings.
Measured with an i386 defconfig, gcc 4.2.1 and kernel 2.6.23-rc1 ("orig" is
the plain kernel, "changed is with -maccumulate-outgoing-args removed):
$ ls -la vmlinux*
-rwxrwxr-x 1 bunk bunk 6269713 2007-07-24 22:19 vmlinux.changed
-rwxrwxr-x 1 bunk bunk 6425361 2007-07-24 22:19 vmlinux.orig
$ size vmlinux.*

4646160 504108 614400 5764668 57f63c vmlinux.orig
$
That's a 2.5% size increase that does for sure hurt small systems.
If the stack unwinder ever comes back and needs this as indicated in the
comment, adding it to the cflags when the user enabled the unwinder should be
a better option.

This patch removes the extern struct resource declarations for
data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource on x86 and declares that
three structures as static as done on other architectures like IA64.
On i386, these structures are moved to setup_32.c (from e820_32.c) because
that's code that is not specific to e820 and also required on EFI systems.
That makes the "extern" reference superfluous.
On x86_64, data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource are passed to
e820_reserve_resources() as arguments just as done on i386 and IA64. That
also avoids the "extern" reference and it's possible to make it static.

Howdy! Here's a simple janitorish patch for you:
This patch mainly hinges around two includes and their ramifications:
#include <i8259.h> which provides cached_{slave,master}_mask
#include <io_ports.h> which provides PIC_{MASTER,SLAVE}_{IMR,CMD}
Adding these two includes and using those half dozen or so definitions
removed 140+ lines of diffs between i8259_32.c and i8259_64.c, thus
making it easier for the real substantitive differences between them to
show up, and hopefully therefore making it easier to eventually merge
the two. All the warnings that checkpatch.pl throws (missing spaces
after commas and >80 character lines) exist intentionally to match
i8259_32.c.

the intent of this patch is to ease the automated tracking of kernel
code quality - it's just much easier for us to maintain it if every file
in arch/x86 is supposed to be clean.
NOTE: it is a known problem of lindent that it causes some style damage
of its own, but it's a safe tool (well, except for the gcc array range
initializers extension), so we did the bulk of the changes via lindent,
and did the manual fixups in a followup patch.
the resulting math-emu code has been tested by Thomas Gleixner on a real
386 DX CPU as well, and it works fine.
