73e907de7d cpumask: remove x86 cpumask_t uses.
Impact: cleanup

We are removing cpumask_t in favour of struct cpumask: mainly as a
marker of what code is now CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK-safe.

The only non-trivial change here is vector_allocation_domain():
explicitly clear the mask and set the first word, rather than using
assignment.

5c6cb5e2b1 cpumask: remove cpumask_t assignment from vector_allocation_domain()
Impact: cleanup

It's not legal to do assignments into cpumask_var_t; they will soon be of
variable length.

So explicitly clear the mask and set the first word, rather than using
assignment.

c032ef60d1 cpumask: convert node_to_cpumask_map[] to cpumask_var_t
Impact: reduce kernel memory usage when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y

Straightforward conversion: done for 32 and 64 bit kernels.
node_to_cpumask_map is now a cpumask_var_t array.

static cpumask_t array.

101aaca1f3 cpumask: remove dangerous CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR, &CPU_MASK_ALL.: x86
Impact: cleanup

(Thanks to Al Viro for reminding me of this, via Ingo)

CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }

Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)

Which formalizes this practice.  One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).

So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *), and remove
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR altogether.

129f8ae9b1 Revert "[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod."
This reverts commit e088e4c9cd.

Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a
regression in bug 12826.

Course of action:
 - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them
   if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically.
   If it isn't, we need to fix that.
 - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated
 - try again with the removal in six months.

It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because
it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding
a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no
kmalloc available).

So do it as we use interrupts instead.  Also means we only alloc for
irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

cbd88c8e6f lguest: fix crash 'unhandled trap 13 at <native_read_msr_safe>'
Impact: fix lguest boot crash on modern Intel machines

The code in early_init_intel does:

	if (c->x86 > 6 || (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model >= 0xd)) {
		u64 misc_enable;

		rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE, misc_enable);

And that rdmsr faults (not allowed from non-0 PL).  We can get around
this by mugging the family ID part of the cpuid.  5 seems like a good
number.

Of course, this is a hack (how very lguest!).  We could just indicate
that we don't support MSRs, or implement lguest_rdmst.

d0fc63f7bd x86 mmiotrace: fix remove_kmmio_fault_pages()
Impact: fix race+crash in mmiotrace

The list manipulation in remove_kmmio_fault_pages() was broken. If more
than one consecutive kmmio_fault_page was re-added during the grace
period between unregister_kmmio_probe() and remove_kmmio_fault_pages(),
the list manipulation failed to remove pages from the release list.

After a second grace period the pages get into rcu_free_kmmio_fault_pages()
and raise a BUG_ON() kernel crash.

The list manipulation is fixed to properly remove pages from the release
list.

This bug has been present from the very beginning of mmiotrace in the
mainline kernel. It was introduced in 0fd0e3da ("x86: mmiotrace full
patch, preview 1");

An urgent fix for Linus. Tested by Stuart (on 32-bit) and Pekka

8827247ffc x86: don't define __this_fixmap_does_not_exist()
Impact: improve out-of-range fixmap index debugging

Commit "1b42f51630c7eebce6fb780b480731eb81afd325"
defined the __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() function
with a WARN_ON(1) in it.

This causes the linker to not report an error when
__this_fixmap_does_not_exist() is called with a
non-constant parameter.

Ingo defined __this_fixmap_does_not_exist() because he
wanted to get virt addresses of fix memory of nest level
by non-constant index.

But we can fix this and still keep the link-time check:

We can get the four slot virt addresses on link time and
store them to array slot_virt[].

Then we can then refer the slot_virt with non-constant index,
in the ioremap-leak detection code.

In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c),

And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that

We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form.
And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT
is not on.

In case a ptraced task is reaped (while the tracer is still attached),
ds_exit_thread() is called before ptrace_exit(). The latter will

The former will WARN() if the context is not NULL.

Oleg Nesterov submitted patches that move ptrace_exit() before
exit_thread() and thus reverse the order of the above calls.

Remove the bad warning. I will add it again when Oleg's changes are in.

Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load

x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu
symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the
first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the
first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.

This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.

This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate.  New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.

x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.

Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the
embedding percpu allocator commit.

edcb463997 percpu, module: implement reserved allocation and use it for module percpu variables
Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
	percpu variables

This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk.  When
setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
through a separate reserved allocator.  This will be used primarily
for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
the relocatable range.

If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
isn't available for regular allocation.  If the first chunk also
includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation.  The first one
is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
Although they share the page map, their different area map
initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
purposes.

If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
like any other allocation.

9a4f8a878b x86: make embedding percpu allocator return excessive free space
Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations

Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size *
smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first
chunk.  However, if the static area is small, this can result in
excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction.

This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's
necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the
leftover to the bootmem allocator.

cafe8816b2 percpu: use negative for auto for pcpu_setup_first_chunk() arguments
Impact: argument semantic cleanup

In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant
auto-sizing.  It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0
dynamic reserve size is valid.  Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.

This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
auto sizing.
