10340ae130 x86, xsave: Use alloc_bootmem_align() instead of alloc_bootmem()
Alignment of alloc_bootmem() depends on the value of
L1_CACHE_SHIFT. What we need here, however, is 64 byte alignment.  Use
alloc_bootmem_align() and explicitly specify the alignment instead.

This fixes a kernel boot crash reported by Jody when the cpu in .config
is set to MPENTIUMII but the kernel is booted on a xsave-capable CPU.

5f29805a4f x86, watchdog: Compile fix when CONFIG_LOCAL_APIC not enabled
When adjusting the code to handle removing the old nmi watchdog,
I forgot to consider the compile case when the local apic is not
enabled.

This change fixes the following build error:

  arch/x86/kernel/apic/hw_nmi.c:28:6: error: redefinition of ‘touch_nmi_watchdog’

f1c18071ad x86: HPET: Chose a paranoid safe value for the ETIME check
commit 995bd3bb5 (x86: Hpet: Avoid the comparator readback penalty)
chose 8 HPET cycles as a safe value for the ETIME check, as we had the
confirmation that the posted write to the comparator register is
delayed by two HPET clock cycles on Intel chipsets which showed
readback problems.

After that patch hit mainline we got reports from machines with newer
AMD chipsets which seem to have an even longer delay. See
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1054283 and
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1069458 for further
information.

Boris tried to come up with an ACPI based selection of the minimum
HPET cycles, but this failed on a couple of test machines. And of
course we did not get any useful information from the hardware folks.

For now our only option is to chose a paranoid high and safe value for
the minimum HPET cycles used by the ETIME check. Adjust the minimum ns
value for the HPET clockevent accordingly.

a8760eca6c x86: Check tsc available/disabled in the delayed init function
The delayed TSC init function does not check whether the system has no
TSC or TSC is disabled at the kernel command line, which results in a
crash in the work queue based extended calibration due to division by
zero because the basic calibration never happened.

Add the missing checks and do not touch TSC when not available or
disabled.

0aa002fe60 x86: apic: Cleanup and simplify setup_local_APIC()
setup_local_APIC() is used to setup local APIC early during CPU
initialization and already assumes that preemption is disabled on
entry. However, The function unnecessarily disables and enables
preemption and uses smp_processor_id() multiple times in and out of
the nested preemption disabled section. This gives the wrong
impression that the function might be able to handle being called with
preemption enabled and/or migrated to another processor in the middle.

Make it clear that the function is always called with preemption
disabled, drop the confusing preemption disable block and call
smp_processor_id() once at the beginning of the function.

5dc3055879 x86, NMI: Add back unknown_nmi_panic and nmi_watchdog sysctls
Originally adapted from Huang Ying's patch which moved the
unknown_nmi_panic to the traps.c file.  Because the old nmi
watchdog was deleted before this change happened, the
unknown_nmi_panic sysctl was lost.  This re-adds it.

Also, the nmi_watchdog sysctl was re-implemented and its
documentation updated accordingly.

0e3fa13f4e x86: Further simplify mp_irq info handling
assign_to_mp_irq() is copying the struct mpc_intsrc members one by
one. That's silly. Use memcpy() and let the compiler figure it out.
Same for the identical function assign_to_mpc_intsrc()

mp_irq_mpc_intsrc_cmp() is comparing the struct members one by one,
but no caller ever checks the different return codes. Use memcmp()
instead.

08ec0c58fb x86: Improve TSC calibration using a delayed workqueue
Boot to boot the TSC calibration may vary by quite a large amount.

While normal variance of 50-100ppm can easily be seen, the quick
calibration code only requires 500ppm accuracy, which is the limit
of what NTP can correct for.

This can cause problems for systems being used as NTP servers, as
every time they reboot it can take hours for them to calculate the
new drift error caused by the calibration.

The classic trade-off here is calibration accuracy vs slow boot times,
as during the calibration nothing else can run.

This patch uses a delayed workqueue  to calibrate the TSC over the
period of a second. This allows very accurate calibration (in my
tests only varying by 1khz or 0.4ppm boot to boot). Additionally this
refined calibration step does not block the boot process, and only
delays the TSC clocksoure registration by a few seconds in early boot.
If the refined calibration strays 1% from the early boot calibration
value, the system will fall back to already calculated early boot
calibration.

Credit to Andi Kleen who suggested using a timer quite awhile back,
but I dismissed it thinking the timer calibration would be done after
the clocksource was registered (which would break things). Forgive
me for my short-sightedness.

This patch has worked very well in my testing, but TSC hardware is
quite varied so it would probably be good to get some extended
testing, possibly pushing inclusion out to 2.6.39.

e7a3481c02 x86/pvclock: Zero last_value on resume
If the guest domain has been suspend/resumed or migrated, then the
system clock backing the pvclock clocksource may revert to a smaller
value (ie, can be non-monotonic across the migration/save-restore).

Make sure we zero last_value in that case so that the domain
continues to see clock updates.

004417a6d4 perf, arch: Cleanup perf-pmu init vs lockup-detector
The perf hardware pmu got initialized at various points in the boot,
some before early_initcall() some after (notably arch_initcall).

The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall()
and expects the hardware pmu to be present.

Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to
initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit
initcall right after that.

33c6d6a7ad x86, perf, nmi: Disable perf if counters are not accessible
In a kvm virt guests, the perf counters are not emulated.  Instead they
return zero on a rdmsrl. The perf nmi handler uses the fact that crossing
a zero means the counter overflowed (for those counters that do not have
specific interrupt bits). Therefore on kvm guests, perf will swallow all
NMIs thinking the counters overflowed.

This causes problems for subsystems like kgdb which needs NMIs to do its
magic. This problem was discovered by running kgdb tests.

The solution is to write garbage into a perf counter during the
initialization and hopefully reading back the same number.  On kvm
guests, the value will be read back as zero and we disable perf as
a result.

Adaptions to the changes of the AMD northbridge caching code: instead
of a bool in each l3 struct, use a flag in amd_northbridges.flags to
indicate L3 cache index disable support; use a pointer to the whole
northbridge instead of the misc device in the l3 struct; simplify the
initialisation; dynamically generate sysfs attribute array.

Support more than just the "Misc Control" part of the northbridges.
Support more flags by turning "gart_supported" into a single bit flag
that is stored in a flags member. Clean up related code by using a set
of functions (amd_nb_num(), amd_nb_has_feature() and node_to_amd_nb())
instead of accessing the NB data structures directly. Reorder the
initialization code and put the GART flush words caching in a separate
function.

9c0729dc80 x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routines
The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the
caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't
have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not
defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass
0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.

However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing:

(a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any
(b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack
(c) Trace some other task

In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just
be 0.  If it _is_ defined, then

- in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so
  the caller should pass NULL for regs,

- in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to
  dump_trace(),

- in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so
  the caller should pass NULL for regs.

Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of
task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp.

This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs)
that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the
two versions of dump_stack().

84e1c6bb38 x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules
This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by
splitting module_core and module_init into three logical parts
each and setting appropriate page access permissions for each
individual section:

 1. Code: RO+X
 2. RO data: RO+NX
 3. RW data: RW+NX

In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
permissions are set right before successful exit from
load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
before calling module_free().

By default, the original section layout and access flags are
preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
RO/NX for each group of pages.

  -v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
  -v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
       and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
       been corrected.
  -v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
       page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
  -v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.
  -v5: Changed page-alignment and RO/NX section size calculation
  -v6: Fixed comments. Restricted RO/NX enforcement to x86 only
  -v7: Introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, added
       calls to set_all_modules_text_rw() and set_all_modules_text_ro()
       in ftrace
  -v8: updated for compatibility with linux 2.6.33-rc5
  -v9: coding style fixes
 -v10: more coding style fixes
 -v11: minor adjustments for -tip
