1bac3b383a [PATCH] x86: Work around gcc 4.2 over aggressive optimizer
The new PDA code uses a dummy _proxy_pda variable to describe
memory references to the PDA. It is never referenced
in inline assembly, but exists as input/output arguments.
gcc 4.2 in some cases can CSE references to this which causes
unresolved symbols.  Define it to zero to avoid this.

92715e282b [PATCH] x86: Fix boot hang due to nmi watchdog init code
2.6.19  stopped booting (or booted based on build/config) on our x86_64
systems due to a bug introduced in 2.6.19.  check_nmi_watchdog schedules an
IPI on all cpus to  busy wait on a flag, but fails to set the busywait
flag if NMI functionality is disabled.  This causes the secondary cpus
to spin in an endless loop, causing the kernel bootup to hang.
Depending upon the build, the  busywait flag got overwritten (stack variable)
and caused  the kernel to bootup on certain builds.  Following patch fixes
the bug by setting the busywait flag before returning from check_nmi_watchdog.
I guess using a stack variable is not good here as the calling function could
potentially return while the busy wait loop is still spinning on the flag.

AK: I redid the patch significantly to be cleaner

c31a0bf3e1 [PATCH] Generic BUG for x86-64
This makes x86-64 use the generic BUG machinery.

The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for x86-64 is that
the inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream.  This
reduces cache pollution.

85916f8166 [PATCH] Kexec / Kdump: Unify elf note code
The elf note saving code is currently duplicated over several
architectures.  This cleanup patch simply adds code to a common file and
then replaces the arch-specific code with calls to the newly added code.

The only drawback with this approach is that s390 doesn't fully support
kexec-on-panic which for that arch leads to introduction of unused code.

0231606785 [PATCH] hotplug CPU: clean up hotcpu_notifier() use
There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn,
prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus
generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add

the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine:

b4c6c34a53 [PATCH] kprobes: enable booster on the preemptible kernel
When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its
instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some
processes might be preempted on the buffer.  The freeze_processes() and
thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer.
There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag.  If
those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the
buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing.

However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time.  So, this
patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot.  It also
introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency.

The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released
immediately.  But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are
marked as garbages.  collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release
"dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if
there are no unused slots.

d331e739f5 [PATCH] x86-64: Fix interrupt race in idle callback (3rd try)
Idle callbacks has some races when enter_idle() sets isidle and subsequent
interrupts that can happen on that CPU, before CPU goes to idle. Due to this,
an IDLE_END can get called before IDLE_START. To avoid these races, disable
interrupts before enter_idle and make sure that all idle routines do not
enable interrupts before entering idle.

Note that poll_idle() still has a this race as it has to enable interrupts
before going to idle. But, all other idle routines have the race fixed.

f3d73707a1 [PATCH] x86-64: Mark rdtsc as sync only for netburst, not for core2
On the Core2 cpus, the rdtsc instruction is not serializing (as defined
in the architecture reference since rdtsc exists) and due to the deep
speculation of these cores, it's possible that you can observe time go
backwards between cores due to this speculation. Since the kernel
already deals with this with the SYNC_RDTSC flag, the solution is
simple, only assume that the instruction is serializing on family 15...

The price one pays for this is a slightly slower gettimeofday (by a
dozen or two cycles), but that increase is quite small to pay for a
really-going-forward tsc counter.

And add a PCI quirk for these platforms to check(which happens very late
during the boot) if the APIC routing is indeed set to default flat mode.

This fixes the breakage(in x86_64) of this quirk due to cpu hotplug which
selects physical mode instead of the logical flat(as needed for this errata
workaround).

with correct perms/range, no change is necessary for that scenario.)

Before the patch, a "cat /proc/self/maps | tail -1" shows this:

b026872601 [PATCH] x86-64: Try multiple timer variants in check_timer
Instead of adding all kinds of more quirks try various timer
routing variants in check_timer.

In particular this tries to handle quirks from:
- Nvidia NF2-4 reference BIOS: wrong timer override
- Asus: Wrong timer override but no HPET table
- ATI: require timer disabled in 8259
- Some boards: require timer enabled in 8259

We just try many of the the known variants in the hopefully right order
in check_timer.

Trying pin 0/2 on Nvidia suggested by Tim Hockin.

TBD Experimental. Needs a lot of testing

5df0287ecc [PATCH] x86-64: Extend clear_irq_vector
Clear the irq releated entries in irq_vector, irq_domain and vector_irq
instead of clearing irq_vector only. So when new irq is created, it
could reuse that vector. (actually is the second loop scanning from
FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR+8). This could avoid the vectors are used up
with enough module inserting and removing

9c5f8be462 [PATCH] x86: Mention PCI instead of RAM in NMI parity error message
On modern systems RAM errors don't cause NMIs, but it's usually
caused by PCI SERR. Mention PCI instead of RAM in the printk.

72690a2118 [PATCH] x86: Don't use nested idle loops
Currently the idle loop has two nested loops -- one high level
in cpu_idle and in some low level idle functions another one.

Looping in the low level idle functions breaks the idle notifiers
because interrupts waking up sleep states need to execute
exit_idle() which is only in cpu_idle().

So don't do that, only loop in cpu_idle(). This only removes
code.

In some cases e.g. poll_idle the idle loop is a little longer
now because cpu_idle checks more things. I hope that isn't a problem
ACPI idle doesn't change behaviour because it never looped anyways.

bcddc0155f [PATCH] x86-64: miscellaneous entry.S adjustments
This patch:
- makes ret_from_sys_call no longer global (all external users were
  previously switched to use int_ret_from_sys_call)
- adjusts placement of a CFI_{REMEMBER,RESTORE}_STATE pair to better
  fit logic flow
- eliminates an unnecessary pair of CFI_{REMEMBER,RESTORE}_STATE
- glues together function- and unwinder-wise the previously separate
  system_call and int_ret_from_sys_call function fragments

Insert the Local APIC and IO APIC(s) into the resource tree.  It allows the
APIC resources to be visible within /proc/iomem.  The patch also takes into
account IO APIC(s) mapped in the PCI space by deferring the insertion until
after PCI has allocated its necessary resources.
