The legacy PIC may or may not be available and we need a mechanism to
detect the existence of the legacy PIC that is applicable for all
hardware (both physical as well as virtual) currently supported by
Linux.
On Hyper-V, when our legacy firmware presented to the guests, emulates
the legacy PIC while when our EFI based firmware is presented we do
not emulate the PIC. To support Hyper-V EFI firmware, we had to set
the legacy_pic to the null_legacy_pic since we had to bypass PIC based
calibration in the early boot code. While, on the EFI firmware, we
know we don't emulate the legacy PIC, we need a generic mechanism to
detect the presence of the legacy PIC that is not based on boot time
state - this became apparent when we tried to get kexec to work on
Hyper-V EFI firmware.
This patch implements the proposal put forth by H. Peter Anvin
<hpa@linux.intel.com>: Write a known value to the PIC data port and
read it back. If the value read is the value written, we do have the
PIC, if not there is no PIC and we can safely set the legacy_pic to
null_legacy_pic. Since the read from an unconnected I/O port returns
0xff, we will use ~(1 << PIC_CASCADE_IR) (0xfb: mask all lines except
the cascade line) to probe for the existence of the PIC.
In version V1 of the patch, I had cleaned up the code based on comments from Peter.
In version V2 of the patch, I have addressed additional comments from Peter.
In version V3 of the patch, I have addressed Jan's comments (JBeulich@suse.com).

Pull irq code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department proudly presents:
- Another tree wide sweep of irq infrastructure abuse. Clear winner
of the trainwreck engineering contest was:
#include "../../../kernel/irq/settings.h"
- Tree wide update of irq_set_affinity() callbacks which miss a cpu
online check when picking a single cpu out of the affinity mask.
- Tree wide consolidation of interrupt statistics.
- Updates to the threaded interrupt infrastructure to allow explicit
wakeup of the interrupt thread and a variant of synchronize_irq()
which synchronizes only the hard interrupt handler. Both are
needed to replace the homebrewn thread handling in the mmc/sdhci
code.
- New irq chip callbacks to allow proper support for GPIO based irqs.
The GPIO based interrupts need to request/release GPIO resources
from request/free_irq.
- A few new ARM interrupt chips. No revolutionary new hardware, just
differently wreckaged variations of the scheme.
- Small improvments, cleanups and updates all over the place"
I was hoping that that trainwreck engineering contest was a April Fools'
joke. But no.

The vmbus/hyperv interrupt handling is another complete trainwreck and
probably the worst of all currently in tree.
If CONFIG_HYPERV=y then the interrupt delivery to the vmbus happens
via the direct HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR. So far so good, but:
The driver requests first a normal device interrupt. The only reason
to do so is to increment the interrupt stats of that device
interrupt. For no reason it also installs a private flow handler.
We have proper accounting mechanisms for direct vectors, but of
course it's too much effort to add that 5 lines of code.
Aside of that the alloc_intr_gate() is not protected against
reallocation which makes module reload impossible.
Solution to the problem is simple to rip out the whole mess and
implement it correctly.
First of all move all that code to arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c and
merily install the HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR with proper reallocation
protection and use the proper direct vector accounting mechanism.

Hyper-V supports a mechanism for retrieving the local APIC frequency.
Use this and bypass the calibration code in the kernel . This would
allow us to boot the Linux kernel as a "modern VM" on Hyper-V where
many of the legacy devices (such as PIT) are not emulated.
I would like to thank Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de>, Jan Beulich <JBeulich@suse.com> and

Starting with win8, vmbus interrupts can be delivered on any VCPU in the guest
and furthermore can be concurrently active on multiple VCPUs. Support this
interrupt delivery model by setting up a separate IDT entry for Hyper-V vmbus.

based on Jan's feedback I have added the necessary compilation switches.

Xen emulates Hyper-V to host enlightened Windows. Looks like this
emulation may be turned on by default even for Linux guests. Check and
fail Hyper-V detection if we are on Xen.
[ hpa: the problem here is that Xen doesn't emulate Hyper-V well
enough, and if the Xen support isn't compiled in, we end up stubling
over the Hyper-V emulation and try to activate it -- and it fails. ]

Enable hyperv_clocksource only if its advertised as a feature.
XenServer 6 returns the signature which is checked in
ms_hyperv_platform(), but it does not offer all features. Currently the
clocksource is enabled unconditionally in ms_hyperv_init_platform(), and
the result is a hanging guest.
Hyper-V spec Bit 1 indicates the availability of Partition Reference
Counter. Register the clocksource only if this bit is set.
The guest in question prints this in dmesg:
[ 0.000000] Hypervisor detected: Microsoft HyperV
[ 0.000000] HyperV: features 0x70, hints 0x0
This bug can be reproduced easily be setting 'viridian=1' in a HVM domU
.cfg file. A workaround without this patch is to boot the HVM guest with
'clocksource=jiffies'.

Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops
structure instead of an enumeration with if statements.
The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing
the pointer value in x86_hyper.
The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state). Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without
additional qualification.
