b0b49f2673 x86, vdso: Remove compat vdso support
The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain
compatibility with a small range of glibc versions.

This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.

This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.

edc6bc7840 x86/intel/mid: Fix X86_INTEL_MID dependencies
This patch fixes the following warning:

  warning: (X86_INTEL_MID) selects INTEL_SCU_IPC which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && X86_INTEL_MID)

It happens because when selected, X86_INTEL_MID tries to select
INTEL_SCU_IPC regardless all its dependencies are met or not.

This patch fixes it by adding the missing X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES
dependency to X86_INTEL_MID.

cf0744021c firmware/dmi_scan: generalize for use by other archs
This patch makes a couple of changes to the SMBIOS/DMI scanning
code so it can be used on other archs (such as ARM and arm64):
(a) wrap the calls to ioremap()/iounmap(), this allows the use of a
    flavor of ioremap() more suitable for random unaligned access;
(b) allow the non-EFI fallback probe into hardcoded physical address
    0xF0000 to be disabled.

We've grown a bunch of microcode loader files all prefixed with

CPU-related functionality so do that and drop the prefix since they're

functionality under CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL as it was its only user.

4618441536 arch: x86: New MailBox support driver for Intel SOC's
Current Intel SOC cores use a MailBox Interface (MBI) to provide access to
configuration registers on devices (called units) connected to the system
fabric. This is a support driver that implements access to this interface on
those platforms that can enumerate the device using PCI. Initial support is for
BayTrail, for which port definitons are provided. This is a requirement for
implementing platform specific features (e.g. RAPL driver requires this to
perform platform specific power management using the registers in PUNIT).
Dependant modules should select IOSF_MBI in their respective Kconfig
configuraiton. Serialized access is handled by all exported routines with
spinlocks.

The API includes 3 functions for access to unit registers:

int iosf_mbi_read(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 *mdr)
int iosf_mbi_write(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 mdr)
int iosf_mbi_modify(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 mdr, u32 mask)

port:	indicating the unit being accessed
opcode:	the read or write port specific opcode
offset:	the register offset within the port
mdr:	the register data to be read, written, or modified
mask:	bit locations in mdr to change

Returns nonzero on error

Note: GPU code handles access to the GFX unit. Therefore access to that unit
with this driver is disallowed to avoid conflicts.

a653f3563c x86, kaslr: Mix entropy sources together as needed
Depending on availability, mix the RDRAND and RDTSC entropy together with
XOR. Only when neither is available should the i8254 be used. Update
the Kconfig documentation to reflect this. Additionally, since bits
used for entropy is masked elsewhere, drop the needless masking in
the get_random_long(). Similarly, use the entire TSC, not just the low
32 bits.

Finally, to improve the starting entropy, do a simple hashing of a
build-time versions string and the boot-time boot_params structure for
some additional level of unpredictability.

b53b5eda81 x86/cpu: Increase max CPU count to 8192
The MAXSMP option is intended to enable silly large numbers of
CPUs for testing purposes.  The current value of 4096 isn't very
silly any longer as there are actual SGI machines that approach
6096 CPUs when taking HT into account.

Increase the value to a nice round 8192 to account for this and
allow for short term future increases.

bb61ccc7db x86/cpu: Allow higher NR_CPUS values
The current range for SMP configs is 2 - 512 CPUs, or a full
4096 in the case of MAXSMP.  There are machines that have 1024
CPUs in them today and configuring a kernel for that means you
are forced to set MAXSMP.  This adds additional unnecessary
overhead.  While that overhead might be considered tiny for
large machines, it isn't necessarily so if you are building a
kernel that runs across a wide variety of machines.

To cover the range of more common machines today, we allow
NR_CPUS to be up to 4096 when CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled.

we have a very good performance benefit for paravirtualized KVM / Xen

So update the Kconfig entry accordingly.

8ab3820fd5 x86, kaslr: Return location from decompress_kernel
This allows decompress_kernel to return a new location for the kernel to
be relocated to. Additionally, enforces CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as the
minimum relocation position when building with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.

With CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE set, the choose_kernel_location routine
will select a new location to decompress the kernel, though here it is

to bypass these routines.

38901f1c1c x86/iommu: Don't make AMD_GART depend on EXPERT and default y
The AMD_GART driver was made EXPERT/EMBEDDED a long time
ago to avoid unbootable 64bit systems with 32bit only devices.

This was before swiotlb was there, which does the job
of this fallback today. SWIOTLB is always on, so systems
should always boot.

The drawback is that every system has to compile that
driver in (it cannot be a module).

Also:
 - Newer AMD CPUs (the APUs) don't seem to have AMD_GART support
   at all anymore.

 - Newer AMD platforms have a much better real IOMMU

 - The AMD GART driver was never very good (lots of overhead,
   e.g. in flushing due to some workarounds) and it's doubtful it's
   really better than SWIOTLB.

 - On older K8 systems it didn't even work with all chipsets.

 - The 32bit device bounce buffer case should be rare/
   non performance critical these days anyways.

 - On non AMD systems it is not needed at all.

So drop the EXPERT dependency on AMD_GART and remove the
default y. The driver can be still compiled in, just
it's an explicit decision now, and people who don't want
it can unselect it.

I also clarified the description a bit.

This allows to save ~8K text on most modern x86-64 systems.

0dbc6078c0 x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP
Commit ebd97be635 ('PCI: remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI kconfig option')
removed the ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI option which architectures could select
to indicate that they support MSI. Now, all architectures are supposed
to build fine when MSI support is enabled: instead of having the
architecture tell *when* MSI support can be used, it's up to the
architecture code to ensure that MSI support can be enabled.

On x86, commit ebd97be635 removed the following line:

  select ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI if (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC)

Which meant that MSI support was only available when the local APIC
and I/O APIC were enabled. While this is always true on SMP or x86-64,
it is not necessarily the case on i386 !SMP.

The below patch makes sure that the local APIC and I/O APIC support is
always enabled when MSI support is enabled. To do so, it:

 * Ensures the X86_UP_APIC option is not visible when PCI_MSI is
   enabled. This is the option that allows, on UP machines, to enable
   or not the APIC support. It is already not visible on SMP systems,
   or x86-64 systems, for example. We're simply also making it
   invisible on i386 MSI systems.

 * Ensures that the X86_LOCAL_APIC and X86_IO_APIC options are 'y'
   when PCI_MSI is enabled.

Notice that this change requires a change in drivers/iommu/Kconfig to
avoid a recursive Kconfig dependencey. The AMD_IOMMU option selects
PCI_MSI, but was depending on X86_IO_APIC. This dependency is no
longer needed: as soon as PCI_MSI is selected, the presence of
X86_IO_APIC is guaranteed. Moreover, the AMD_IOMMU already depended on
X86_64, which already guaranteed that X86_IO_APIC was enabled, so this
dependency was anyway redundant.

a2cd11f7d5 x86: Tell about irq stack coverage
x86-64 runs irq_exit() under the irq stack. So it can afford
to run softirqs in hardirq exit without the need to switch
the stacks. The hardirq stack is good enough for that.

Now x86-64 runs softirqs in the hardirq stack anyway, so what we
mostly skip is some needless per cpu refcounting updates there.

x86-32 is not concerned because it only runs the irq handler on
the irq stack.

1cad5e9a39 hotplug / x86: Disable ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE on x86
Commit d7c53c9e enabled ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE on x86 in order to
serialize CPU online/offline operations.  Although it is the config
option to enable CPU hotplug test interfaces, probe & release, it is
also the option to enable cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() as well.  Therefore,
this option had to be enabled on x86 with dummy arch_cpu_probe() and
arch_cpu_release().

Since then, lock_device_hotplug() was introduced to serialize CPU
online/offline & hotplug operations.  Therefore, this config option
is no longer required for the serialization.  This patch disables
this config option on x86 and revert the changes made by commit
d7c53c9e.

0f531431d3 x86/intel/lpss: Add pin control support to Intel low power subsystem
x86 chips with LPSS (low power subsystem) such as Lynxpoint and
Baytrail have SoC like peripheral support and controllable pins.

At the moment, Baytrail needs the pinctrl-baytrail driver to let
peripherals control their gpio resources, but more pincontrol
functions such as pin muxing and grouping are possible to add
later.
