2010-05-01hw-breakpoints: Separate constraint space for data and instruction breakpointsFrederic Weisbecker
There are two outstanding fashions for archs to implement hardware breakpoints. The first is to separate breakpoint address pattern definition space between data and instruction breakpoints. We then have typically distinct instruction address breakpoint registers and data address breakpoint registers, delivered with separate control registers for data and instruction breakpoints as well. This is the case of PowerPc and ARM for example. The second consists in having merged breakpoint address space definition between data and instruction breakpoint. Address registers can host either instruction or data address and the access mode for the breakpoint is defined in a control register. This is the case of x86 and Super H. This patch adds a new CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS config that archs can select if they belong to the second case. Those will have their slot allocation merged for instructions and data breakpoints. The others will have a separate slot tracking between data and instruction breakpoints.

2010-03-13x86, k8 nb: Fix boot crash: enable k8_northbridges unconditionally on AMD ↵Borislav Petkov
systems de957628ce7c84764ff41331111036b3ae5bad0f changed setting of the x86_init.iommu.iommu_init function ptr only when GART IOMMU is found. One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges is not initialized anymore if not explicitly called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in <arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>, for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through node_to_k8_nb_misc(). Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're running before that. What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of hardware dependency should be AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && PCI. Make it so Number One!

2010-02-25x86, numaq: Make CONFIG_X86_NUMAQ depend on CONFIG_PCIPan, Jacob jun
The NUMAQ initialization sets x86_init.pci.init to pci_numaq_init, which obviously isn't defined if CONFIG_PCI isn't defined. This dependency was implicit in the past, because pci_numaq_init was invoked from arch/x86/pci/legacy.c, which itself was conditioned on CONFIG_PCI. I suspect that no NUMA-Q machines without PCI were ever built, so instead of complicating the code by adding #ifdefs or stub functions, just disable this bit of the configuration space.

2010-02-25kprobes/x86: Support kprobes jump optimization on x86Masami Hiramatsu
Introduce x86 arch-specific optimization code, which supports both of x86-32 and x86-64. This code also supports safety checking, which decodes whole of a function in which probe is inserted, and checks following conditions before optimization: - The optimized instructions which will be replaced by a jump instruction don't straddle the function boundary. - There is no indirect jump instruction, because it will jumps into the address range which is replaced by jump operand. - There is no jump/loop instruction which jumps into the address range which is replaced by jump operand. - Don't optimize kprobes if it is in functions into which fixup code will jumps. This uses text_poke_multibyte() which doesn't support modifying code on NMI/MCE handler. However, since kprobes itself doesn't support NMI/MCE code probing, it's not a problem. Changes in v9: - Use *_text_reserved() for checking the probe can be optimized. - Verify jump address range is in 2G range when preparing slot. - Backup original code when switching optimized buffer, instead of preparing buffer, because there can be int3 of other probes in preparing phase. - Check kprobe is disabled in arch_check_optimized_kprobe(). - Strictly check indirect jump opcodes (ff /4, ff /5). Changes in v6: - Split stop_machine-based jump patching code. - Update comments and coding style. Changes in v5: - Introduce stop_machine-based jump replacing.

2010-01-11core, x86: make LIST_POISON less deadlyAvi Kivity
The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable, potentially turning an oops to an expolit. To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values. This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains areas that cannot be mapped. Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.

2009-12-18hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependencyFrederic Weisbecker
The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config dependencies. Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't ensure perf can never be disabled under us. We have: config X86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS select PERF_EVENTS config PERF_EVENTS [...] x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is necessary for the breakpoints. What we need is: - x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS - HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86. This fixes the following kind of build errors: In file included from arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:31: include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h: In function 'hw_breakpoint_addr': include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h:39: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'attr' v2: Select also ANON_INODES from x86, required for perf Reported-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Reported-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Reported-by: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrik_a@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> LKML-Reference: <1261010034-7786-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-12-15cs5535: drop the Geode-specific MFGPT/GPIO codeAndres Salomon
With generic modular drivers handling all of this stuff, the geode-specific code can go away. The cs5535-gpio, cs5535-mfgpt, and cs5535-clockevt drivers now handle this.

2009-12-15ALSA: cs5535audio: free OLPC quirks from reliance on MGEODE_LX cpu optimizationAndres Salomon
Previously, OLPC support for the mic extensions was only enabled in the ALSA driver if CONFIG_OLPC and CONFIG_MGEODE_LX were both set. This was because the old geode GPIO code was written in a manner that assumed CONFIG_MGEODE_LX. With the new cs553x-gpio driver, this is no longer the case; as such, we can drop the requirement on CONFIG_MGEODE_LX and instead include a requirement on GPIOLIB. We use the generic GPIO API rather than the cs553x-specific API.

2009-10-12x86: Relegate CONFIG_PAT and CONFIG_MTRR configurability to EMBEDDEDArjan van de Ven
MTRR and PAT support (which got added to CPUs over 10 years ago) are no longer really optional in that more and more things are depending on PAT just working, including various drivers and newer versions of X. (to not even speak of MTRR) Having this as a regular config option just no longer makes sense. This patch relegates CONFIG_X86_PAT to the EMBEDDED category so ultra-embedded can still disable it if they really need to.

2009-10-01core, x86: Add user return notifiersAvi Kivity
Add a general per-cpu notifier that is called whenever the kernel is about to return to userspace. The notifier uses a thread_info flag and existing checks, so there is no impact on user return or context switch fast paths. This will be used initially to speed up KVM task switching by lazily updating MSRs.
