a0abd520fd cpumask: fix powernow-k8: partial revert of 2fdf66b491
Impact: fix powernow-k8 when acpi=off (or other error).

There was a spurious change introduced into powernow-k8 in this patch:
so that we try to "restore" the cpus_allowed we never saved.  We revert
that file.

See lkml "[PATCH] x86/powernow: fix cpus_allowed brokage when
acpi=off" from Yinghai for the bug report.

f47a454db9 tracing, x86: fix constraint for parent variable
The constraint used for retrieving and restoring the parent function
pointer is incorrect. The parent variable is a pointer, and the
address of the pointer is modified by the asm statement and not
the pointer itself. It is incorrect to pass it in as an output
constraint since the asm will never update the pointer.

e3944bfac9 tracing, x86: fix fixup section to return to original code
Impact: fix to prevent a kernel crash on fault

If for some reason the pointer to the parent function on the
stack takes a fault, the fix up code will not return back to
the original faulting code. This can lead to unpredictable
results and perhaps even a kernel panic.

A fault should not happen, but if it does, we should simply
disable the tracer, warn, and continue running the kernel.
It should not lead to a kernel crash.

d315760ffa x86: fix math_emu register frame access
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
of configuration in the current code.

This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
like normal C functions do.  This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
used.

This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
somewhat working.

55a8ba4b7f x86, vmi: put a missing paravirt_release_pmd in pgd_dtor
Commit 6194ba6ff6 ("x86: don't special-case
pmd allocations as much") made changes to the way we handle pmd allocations,
and while doing that it dropped a call to  paravirt_release_pd on the
pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path.

As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the
pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a
page table page.

After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and
depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance
and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots).

Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from
the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

3f4a739c6a x86: find nr_irqs_gsi with mp_ioapic_routing
Impact: find right nr_irqs_gsi on some systems.

One test-system has gap between gsi's:

[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 4, version 0, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x05] address[0xfeafd000] gsi_base[48])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 5, version 0, address 0xfeafd000, GSI 48-54
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x06] address[0xfeafc000] gsi_base[56])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 6, version 0, address 0xfeafc000, GSI 56-62
...
[    0.000000] nr_irqs_gsi: 38

So nr_irqs_gsi is not right. some irq for MSI will overwrite with io_apic.

need to get that with acpi_probe_gsi when acpi io_apic is used

732553e567 [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Get transition latency from ACPI _PSS table
At this time, the PowerNow! driver for K8 uses an experimentally
derived formula to calculate transition latency.  The value it
provides is orders of magnitude too large on modern systems.
This patch replaces the formula with ACPI _PSS latency values
for more accuracy and better performance.

I've tested it on two 2nd generation Opteron systems, a 3rd
generation Operton system, and a Turion X2 without seeing any
stability problems.

a6a95406c6 x86: fix hpet timer reinit for x86_64
There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks
for the:

	hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0

to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the
hpet_t1_cmp (variable).

But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp
is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits
the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't
increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough.

The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less,
than the COUNTER and never increased again.

The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits
(on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed
integers.

Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with
missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process
due to the APIC not being initialized. Fix that by falling back to the

336f6c322d debugobjects: add and use INIT_WORK_ON_STACK
Impact: Fix debugobjects warning

debugobject enabled kernels spit out a warning in hpet code due to a
workqueue which is initialized on stack.

Add INIT_WORK_ON_STACK() which calls init_timer_on_stack() and use it
in hpet.

066941bd4e x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs
Impact: Fixes crashes with misconfigured BIOSes on XSAVE hardware

Avuton Olrich reported early boot crashes with v2.6.28 and
bisected it down to dc1e35c6e9
("x86, xsave: enable xsave/xrstor on cpus with xsave support").

If the CPUID limit bit in MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE is set, clear it to
make all CPUID information available.  This is required for some
features to work, in particular XSAVE.

731f1872f4 x86: mtrr fix debug boot parameter
while looking at:

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541

I realized that the mtrr.show param cannot work, because
the code is processed much too early.

This patch:
 - Declares mtrr.show as early_param
 - Stays consistent with the previous param (which I doubt
   that it ever worked), so mtrr.show=1 would still work
 - Declares mtrr_show as initdata

552b8aa4d1 Revert "x86: signal: change type of paramter for sys_rt_sigreturn()"
This reverts commit 4217458daf.

Justin Madru bisected this commit, it was causing weird Firefox
crashes.

The reason is that GCC mis-optimizes (re-uses) the on-stack parameters of
the calling frame, which corrupts the syscall return pt_regs state and
thus corrupts user-space register state.

So we go back to the slightly less clean but more optimization-safe
method of getting to pt_regs. Also add a comment to explain this.

Resolves: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12505

bfa318ad52 fix: crash: IP: __bitmap_intersects+0x48/0x73

> [   35.258515] calling  acpi_cpufreq_init+0x0/0x127 @ 1
> [   35.264127] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c is still broken: there's no
allocation of the variable mask, so we pass in an uninitialized cmd.mask
field to drv_read(), which then passes it to the scheduler which then
crashes ...

Switch it over to the much simpler constant-cpumask-pointers approach.

7285908185 cpufreq: use work_on_cpu in acpi-cpufreq.c for drv_read and drv_write
Impact: use new work_on_cpu function to reduce stack usage

Replace the saving of current->cpus_allowed and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() with
a work_on_cpu function for drv_read() and drv_write().

Basically converts do_drv_{read,write} into "work_on_cpu" functions that
are now called by drv_read and drv_write.

Note: This patch basically reverts 50c668d6 which reverted 7503bfba, now
that the work_on_cpu() function is more stable.

c7f8562a51 x86: fix section mismatch warnings in kernel/setup_percpu.c
The function setup_cpu_local_masks() has been marked __init, in

b2b815d80a x86: put trigger in to detect mismatched apic versions
Impact: add debug warning

Fire off one message if two apic's discovered with different
apic versions. (this code is only called during CPU init)

The goal of this is to pave the way of the removal of the apic_version[]
array. We dont expect any apic version incompatibilities in the x86
landscape of systems [if so we dont handle them very well and probably
never will handle deep apic version assymetries well], but it's prudent
to have a debug check for one kernel cycle nevertheless.
