* 'idle-release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-idle-2.6:
cpuidle: stop depending on pm_idle
x86 idle: move mwait_idle_with_hints() to where it is used
cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle
cpuidle: create bootparam "cpuidle.off=1"
mrst_pmu: driver for Intel Moorestown Power Management Unit
cpuidle users should call cpuidle_call_idle() directly
rather than via (pm_idle)() function pointer.
Architecture may choose to continue using (pm_idle)(),
but cpuidle need not depend on it:
my_arch_cpu_idle()
...
if(cpuidle_call_idle())
pm_idle();

The Host used to create some page tables for the Guest to use at the
top of Guest memory; it would then tell the Guest where this was. In
particular, it created linear mappings for 0 and 0xC0000000 addresses
because lguest used to switch to its real page tables quite late in
boot.
However, since d50d8fe19 Linux initialized boot page tables in
head_32.S even before the "are we lguest?" boot jump. So, now we can
simplify things: the Host pagetable code assumes 1:1 linear mapping
until it first calls the LHCALL_NEW_PGTABLE hypercall, which we now do
before we reach C code.
This also means that the Host doesn't need to know anything about the
Guest's PAGE_OFFSET. (Non-Linux guests might not even have such a
thing).

Rebooting on the Dell E5420 often hangs with the keyboard or ACPI
methods, but is reliable via the PCI method.

There are many more instances of more complicated macros having unnecessary

In kexec jump support, jump back address passed to the kexeced
kernel via function calling ABI, that is, the function call
return address is the jump back entry.
Furthermore, jump back entry == 0 should be used to signal that
the jump back or preserve context is not enabled in the original
kernel.
But in the current implementation the stack position used for
function call return address is not cleared context
preservation is disabled. The patch fixes this bug.

handle_signal()->set_fs() has a nice comment which explains what
set_fs() is, but it doesn't explain why it is needed and why it
depends on CONFIG_X86_64.
Afaics, the history of this confusion is:
1. I guess today nobody can explain why it was needed
in arch/i386/kernel/signal.c, perhaps it was always
wrong. This predates 2.4.0 kernel.
2. then it was copy-and-past'ed to the new x86_64 arch.
3. then it was removed from i386 (but not from x86_64)
by b93b6ca3 "i386: remove unnecessary code".
4. then it was reintroduced under CONFIG_X86_64 when x86
unified i386 and x86_64, because the patch above didn't
touch x86_64.
Remove it. ->addr_limit should be correct. Even if it was possible
that it is wrong, it is too late to fix it after setup_rt_frame().
Linus commented in:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LFD.0.999.0707170902570.19166@woody.linux-foundation.org
... about the equivalent bit from i386:
Heh. I think it's entirely historical.
Please realize that the whole reason that function is called "set_fs()" is
that it literally used to set the %fs segment register, not
"->addr_limit".
So I think the "set_fs(USER_DS)" is there _only_ to match the other
regs->xds = __USER_DS;
regs->xes = __USER_DS;
regs->xss = __USER_DS;
regs->xcs = __USER_CS;
things, and never mattered. And now it matters even less, and has been
copied to all other architectures where it is just totally insane.

1. do_signal() looks at TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK and calculates the
mask which should be stored in the signal frame, then it
passes "oldset" to the callees, down to setup_rt_frame().
This is ugly, setup_rt_frame() can do this itself and nobody
else needs this sigset_t. Move this code into setup_rt_frame.
2. do_signal() also clears TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK if handle_signal()
succeeds.
We can move this to setup_rt_frame() as well, this avoids the
unnecessary checks and makes the logic more clear.
3. use set_current_blocked() instead of sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK),
sigprocmask() should be avoided.

Instead of hw_nmi_watchdog_set_attr() weak function
and appropriate x86_pmu::hw_watchdog_set_attr() call
we introduce even alias mechanism which allow us
to drop this routines completely and isolate quirks
of Netburst architecture inside P4 PMU code only.
The main idea remains the same though -- to allow
nmi-watchdog and perf top run simultaneously.
Note the aliasing mechanism applies to generic
PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES event only because arbitrary
event (say passed as RAW initially) might have some
additional bits set inside ESCR register changing
the behaviour of event and we can't guarantee anymore
that alias event will give the same result.
P.S. Thanks a huge to Don and Steven for for testing
and early review.

Since 2.6.36 (23016bf0d2), Linux prints the existence of "epb" in /proc/cpuinfo,
Since 2.6.38 (d5532ee7b4), the x86_energy_perf_policy(8) utility has
been available in-tree to update MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS.
However, the typical BIOS fails to initialize the MSR, presumably
because this is handled by high-volume shrink-wrap operating systems...
Linux distros, on the other hand, do not yet invoke x86_energy_perf_policy(8).
As a result, WSM-EP, SNB, and later hardware from Intel will run in its
default hardware power-on state (performance), which assumes that users
care for performance at all costs and not for energy efficiency.
While that is fine for performance benchmarks, the hardware's intended default
operating point is "normal" mode...
Initialize the MSR to the "normal" by default during kernel boot.
x86_energy_perf_policy(8) is available to change the default after boot,
should the user have a different preference.

This patch adds a function pointer in one of the many paravirt_ops
structs, to allow guests to register a steal time function. Besides
a steal time function, we also declare two jump_labels. They will be
used to allow the steal time code to be easily bypassed when not
in use.

The vread field was bloating struct clocksource everywhere except
x86_64, and I want to change the way this works on x86_64, so let's
split it out into per-arch data.

Three fixes here:
- Send SIGSEGV if called from compat code or with a funny CS.
- Don't BUG on impossible addresses.
- Add a missing local_irq_disable.
This patch also removes an unused variable.

When "apic=debug" is used as a boot parameter, Linux prints the IOAPIC routing
entries in "dmesg". Below is output from IOAPIC whose apic_id is 8:
# dmesg | grep "routing entry"
IOAPIC[8]: Set routing entry (8-1 -> 0x31 -> IRQ 1 Mode:0 Active:0 Dest:0)
IOAPIC[8]: Set routing entry (8-2 -> 0x30 -> IRQ 0 Mode:0 Active:0 Dest:0)
IOAPIC[8]: Set routing entry (8-3 -> 0x33 -> IRQ 3 Mode:0 Active:0 Dest:0)
...
Similarly, when IR (interrupt remapping) is enabled, and the IRTE
(interrupt remapping table entry) is set up we should display it.
After the fix:
# dmesg | grep IRTE
IOAPIC[8]: Set IRTE entry (P:1 FPD:0 Dst_Mode:0 Redir_hint:1 Trig_Mode:0 Dlvry_Mode:0 Avail:0 Vector:31 Dest:00000000 SID:00F1 SQ:0 SVT:1)
IOAPIC[8]: Set IRTE entry (P:1 FPD:0 Dst_Mode:0 Redir_hint:1 Trig_Mode:0 Dlvry_Mode:0 Avail:0 Vector:30 Dest:00000000 SID:00F1 SQ:0 SVT:1)
IOAPIC[8]: Set IRTE entry (P:1 FPD:0 Dst_Mode:0 Redir_hint:1 Trig_Mode:0 Dlvry_Mode:0 Avail:0 Vector:33 Dest:00000000 SID:00F1 SQ:0 SVT:1)
...
The IRTE is defined in Sec 9.5 of the Intel VT-d Specification.
