cb007648de KVM: fix cpuid E2BIG handling for extended request types
If we run out of cpuid entries for extended request types
we should return -E2BIG, just like we do for the standard
request types.

890ca9aefa KVM: Add MCE support
The related MSRs are emulated. MCE capability is exported via
extension KVM_CAP_MCE and ioctl KVM_X86_GET_MCE_CAP_SUPPORTED.  A new
vcpu ioctl command KVM_X86_SETUP_MCE is used to setup MCE emulation
such as the mcg_cap. MCE is injected via vcpu ioctl command
KVM_X86_SET_MCE. Extended machine-check state (MCG_EXT_P) and CMCI are
not implemented.

bd4352cadf sparc64: Fix bootup with mcount in some configs.
Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use
tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()'
and TLB mappings to be setup.

The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo
is one such case.  sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the
necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not.

Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger,
but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we
must properly mark it notrace.

While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and
prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

e6617c6ec2 sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds.
This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI
watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present.

This happens when, for example:

CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to
load the firmware, then waiting for completion.

CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts.  CPU 1 is where the NMI
watchdog triggers.

CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU
1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending.
This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds.

The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the
barrage of device interrupts begin.  Then we have:

	timer interrupt
	return for softirq checking
	pending, thus enable interrupts

		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 ... 5+ seconds pass
		 final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load
		 return

	run timer softirq
	return

At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger
the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler.

The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to
run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer
interrupts.

However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer
interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged.  But in the above
scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last
all the way back to running the timer softirq.

The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty
low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds).  So increase it to 30
seconds for now.

| commit 2759c3287d
| x86: don't call read_apic_id if !cpu_has_apic

The problem is that on vSMP systems the CPUID derived
initial-APICIDs are overlapping - so we need to fall
back on hard_smp_processor_id() which reads the local
APIC.

Both come from the hardware (influenced by firmware
though) so it's a tough call which one to trust.

Doing the quirk expresses the vSMP property properly
and also does not affect other systems, so we go for
this solution instead of a revert.

d8ed1d43e1 sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.

So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.

In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.

The result of this is that:

1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size

2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap

We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.

If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.

To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.

On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.

c62e43202e x86: Fix build with older binutils and consolidate linker script
binutils prior to 2.17 can't deal with the currently possible
situation of a new segment following the per-CPU segment, but
that new segment being empty - objcopy misplaces the .bss (and
perhaps also the .brk) sections outside of any segment.

However, the current ordering of sections really just appears
to be the effect of cumulative unrelated changes; re-ordering
things allows to easily guarantee that the segment following
the per-CPU one is non-empty, and at once eliminates the need
for the bogus data.init2 segment.

Once touching this code, also use the various data section
helper macros from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

This breaks the use of 3270 devices as the console. Provide a new

b04e6373d6 x86: don't call '->send_IPI_mask()' with an empty mask
As noted in 83d349f35e ("x86: don't send
an IPI to the empty set of CPU's"), some APIC's will be very unhappy
with an empty destination mask.  That commit added a WARN_ON() for that
case, and avoided the resulting problem, but didn't fix the underlying
reason for why those empty mask cases happened.

This fixes that, by checking the result of 'cpumask_andnot()' of the
current CPU actually has any other CPU's left in the set of CPU's to be
sent a TLB flush, and not calling down to the IPI code if the mask is
empty.

The reason this started happening at all is that we started passing just
the CPU mask pointers around in commit 4595f9620 ("x86: change
flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), and when we did that,
the cpumask was no longer thread-local.

Before that commit, flush_tlb_mm() used to create it's own copy of
'mm->cpu_vm_mask' and pass that copy down to the low-level flush
routines after having tested that it was not empty.  But after changing
it to just pass down the CPU mask pointer, the lower level TLB flush
routines would now get a pointer to that 'mm->cpu_vm_mask', and that
could still change - and become empty - after the test due to other
CPU's having flushed their own TLB's.

See

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

for details.

83d349f35e x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU's
The default_send_IPI_mask_logical() function uses the "flat" APIC mode
to send an IPI to a set of CPU's at once, but if that set happens to be
empty, some older local APIC's will apparently be rather unhappy.  So
just warn if a caller gives us an empty mask, and ignore it.

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.x, due to commit 4595f9620 ("x86:
change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), documented
here:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

which causes a silent lock-up.  It only seems to happen on PPro, P2, P3
and Athlon XP cores.  Most developers sadly (or not so sadly, if you're
a developer..) have more modern CPU's.  Also, on x86-64 we don't use the
flat APIC mode, so it would never trigger there even if the APIC didn't
like sending an empty IPI mask.

f833bab87f clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock
Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.

This results in a deadlock in this scenario.

cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.

This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.

Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.

Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.

This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

a9919646d1 sparc32: Kill trap table freeing code.
Normally, srmmu uses different trap table register values to allow
determination of the cpu we're on.  All of the trap tables have
identical content, they just sit at different offsets from the first
trap table, and the offset shifted down and masked out determines
the cpu we are on.

The code tries to free them up when they aren't actually used
(don't have all 4 cpus, we're on sun4d, etc.) but that causes
problems.

For one thing it triggers false positives in the DMA debugging
code.  And fixing that up while preserving this relative offset
thing isn't trivial.

So just kill the freeing code, it costs us at most 3 pages, big
deal...

PAT code maps the ISA memory range as WB in the PAT attribute, so that
fixed range MTRR registers define the actual memory type (UC/WC/WT etc).

But the upper level is_new_memtype_allowed() API checks are failing,
as the request here is for UC and the return tracked type is WB (Tracked type is
WB as MTRR type for this legacy range potentially will be different for each
4k page).

Fix is_new_memtype_allowed() by always succeeding the ISA address range
checks, as the null PAT (WB) and def MTRR fixed range register settings
satisfy the memory type needs of the applications that map the ISA address
range.

e412cd257e x86, mce: Don't initialize MCEs on unknown CPUs
An older test-box started hanging at the following point during
bootup:

 [    0.022996] Mount-cache hash table entries: 512
 [    0.024996] Initializing cgroup subsys debug
 [    0.025996] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuacct
 [    0.026995] Initializing cgroup subsys devices
 [    0.027995] Initializing cgroup subsys freezer
 [    0.028995] mce: CPU supports 5 MCE banks

I've bisected it down to commit 4efc0670 ("x86, mce: use 64bit
machine check code on 32bit"), which utilizes the MCE code on
32-bit systems too.

The problem is caused by this detail in my config:

  # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL is not set

This disables the quirks in mce_cpu_quirks() but still enables
MCE support - which then hangs due to the missing quirk
workaround needed on this CPU:

	if (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model < 0x1A && banks > 0)
		mce_banks[0].init = 0;

The safe solution is to not initialize MCEs if we dont know on
what CPU we are running (or if that CPU's support code got
disabled in the config).

Also be a bit more defensive on 32-bit systems: dont do a
boot-time dump of pending MCEs not just on the specific system
that we found a problem with (Pentium-M), but earlier ones as
well.

Now this problem is probably not common and disabling CPU
support is rare - but still being more defensive in something
we turned on for a wide range of CPUs is prudent.

On my legacy Pentium M laptop (Acer Extensa 2900) I get bogus MCE on a cold

MCE 0

[ The other STATUS values observed: f2000000000001b5 (... UNKNOWN error)
  and f200000000000115 (... READ Error).

  To verify that this is not a CONFIG_X86_NEW_MCE bug I also modified
  the CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE code (which doesn't log any MCEs) to dump
  content of STATUS MSR before it is cleared during initialization. ]

Since the bogus MCE results in a kernel taint (which in turn disables
lockdep support) don't log boot MCEs on Pentium M (model == 13) CPUs
by default ("mce=bootlog" boot parameter can be be used to get the old
behavior).

dde5828f56 ARM: Fix broken highmem support
Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased
vmalloc area.  However, none of this has any effect on the memory
layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped.
Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be
registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available
virtual mapping space.

The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning
of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size
(see commit 60296c71f6 for details on
this).

We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory,
while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem.

Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory
are not supported.  This is not a huge limitation since systems
relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory
with large holes.

[ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9eca
  and be available  in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up
  of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage
  escaped testing somehow as well. -- Nico ]

9747e78b30 sh: use in-soc KEYSC on se7724
This patch updates the Solution Engine 7724 board code to use
in-SoC KEYSC resources for the keyboard platform device. Using
the in-SoC key scan controller fixes a crash-during-resume issue.

Without this patch the KEYSC hardware block located in the board
specific FPGA is used together with an external IRQ which is
routed through the FPGA and handled by some board specific demux
code. This board specific FPGA interrupt code does not implement
desc->set_wake() so the enable_irq_wake() call in the sh_keysc
driver will fail at suspend-to-ram time and the disable_irq_wake()
will bomb out when resuming.

Changing the platform data to use the in-SoC KEYSC hardware makes
the se7724 board support code less special which is a good thing.
Also, the board specific KEYSC pin setup code selects in-SoC pin
functions already which makes the current FPGA platform device data
look like a typo.

04da8a43da perf_counter, x86: Fix/improve apic fallback
Johannes Stezenbach reported that his Pentium-M based
laptop does not have the local APIC enabled by default,
and hence perfcounters do not get initialized.

Add a fallback for this case: allow non-sampled counters
and return with an error on sampled counters. This allows
'perf stat' to work out of box - and allows 'perf top'
and 'perf record' to fall back on a hrtimer based sampling
method.

( Passing 'lapic' on the boot line will allow hardware
  sampling to occur - but if the APIC is disabled
  permanently by the hardware then this fallback still
  allows more systems to use perfcounters. )

Also decouple perfcounter support from X86_LOCAL_APIC.

bf2a4c7270 arch/ia64/Makefile: Remove -mtune=merced in IA64 kernel build
Between GCC version 3.4.0 and 4.3.3 (including 3.4.0 and 4.3.3), -mtune=merced
is implemented in GCC. Starting from 4.4.0, -mtune=merced is deprecated.

Even implemented in versions between 3.4.0 and 4.3.3, the -mtune=merced
feature has been broken in some of the versions. For example, GCC 4.1.2 reports
interanl tuning function errors during kernel building with -mtune=merced. Or
GCC Bugzilla 16130 reports another -mtune=merced issue on GCC 3.4.1.

So I would remove the -mtune=merced from IA64 kernel build. Without this option,
kernel on Merced will remain the same except losing an unstable and out-of-date
performance tunning feature.

Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The
-mtune=mckinley option functions the same as mtune=itanium2. And mtune=itanium2
is the default option. So we don't need to add mtune=mckinley either since its
been the default option in any GCC version which implements this option.

Every arch except arm's ixp4xx defines IO_SPACE_LIMIT as an all-bits-one
bitmask, typically -1UL but sometimes only a 16-bit 0x0000ffff. But ixp4xx
defines it as 0xffff0000, which is now causing the PCI failures.

Russell King noted that ixp4xx has 64KB PCI IO space, so IO_SPACE_LIMIT
should be 0x0000ffff. This patch makes that change, which fixes the PCI
failures on my ixp4xx box.

0d01f31439 x86, mce: therm_throt - change when we print messages
My Latitude d630 seems to be handling thermal events in SMI by
lowering the max frequency of the CPU till it cools down but
still leaks the "everything is normal" events.

This spams the console and with high priority printks.

Adjust therm_throt driver to only print messages about the fact
that temperatire returned back to normal when leaving the
throttling state.

Also lower the severity of "back to normal" message from
KERN_CRIT to KERN_INFO.

3e03bbeac5 x86: Add reboot quirk for every 5 series MacBook/Pro
Reboot does not work on my MacBook Pro 13 inch (MacBookPro5,5)
too. It seems all unibody MacBook and MacBookPro require
PCI reboot handling, i guess.

Following model/machine ID list shows unibody MacBook/Pro have
the 5 series of model number:

b6e61eef4f x86: Fix serialization in pit_expect_msb()
Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case:

| pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case
| in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong
| CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success
| section.

I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact
that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no
serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in
the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle
counter was read without proper serialization.

The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since
_inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has
the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration.

So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one
that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the
final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized.

In other words:

 - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last
   iteration, rather than in every iteration

 - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a
   serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read.

Here's a suggested replacement.
