Multiple virtual counters share one physical counter. The reservation
of virtual counters fails due to duplicate allocation of the same
counter. The counters are already reserved. Thus, virtual counter
reservation may removed at all. This also makes the code easier.

Currently, oprofile fails silently on platforms where a non-OS entity
such as the system firmware "enables" and uses a performance
counter. There is a warning in the code for this case.
The warning indicates an already running counter. If oprofile doesn't
collect data, then try using a different performance counter on your
platform to monitor the desired event. Delete the counter from the
desired event by editing the
/usr/share/oprofile/<cpu_type>/<cpu>/events
file. If the event cannot be monitored by any other counter, contact
your hardware or BIOS vendor.

IBS selects an op (execution operation) for sampling by counting
either cycles or dispatched ops. Better statistical samples can be
produced by adding a software generated random offset to the periodic
op counter value with each sample.
This patch adds software randomization to the IBS periodic op
counter. The lower 12 bits of the 20 bit counter are
randomized. IbsOpCurCnt is initialized with a 12 bit random value.
There is a work around if the hw can not write to IbsOpCurCnt. Then
the lower 8 bits of the 16 bit IbsOpMaxCnt [15:0] value are randomized
in the range of -128 to +127 by adding/subtracting an offset to the
maximum count (IbsOpMaxCnt).
The linear feedback shift register (LFSR) algorithm is used for
pseudo-random number generation to have low impact to the memory
system.

This patch implements a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) for
pseudo-random number generation for IBS.
For IBS measurements it would be good to minimize memory traffic in
the interrupt handler since every access pollutes the data
caches. Computing a maximal period LFSR just needs shifts and ORs.
The LFSR method is good enough to randomize the ops at low
overhead. 16 pseudo-random bits are enough for the implementation and
it doesn't matter that the pattern repeats with a fairly short
cycle. It only needs to break up (hard) periodic sampling behavior.
The logic was designed by Paul Drongowski.

This patch adds IBS feature detection using cpuid flags. An IBS
capability mask is introduced to test for certain IBS features. The
bit mask is the same as for IBS cpuid feature flags (Fn8000_001B_EAX),
but bit 0 is used to indicate the existence of IBS.
The patch also changes the handling of the IbsOpCntCtl bit (periodic
op counter count control). The oprofilefs file for this feature
(ibs_op/dispatched_ops) will be only exposed if the feature is
available, also the default for the bit is set to count clock cycles.
In general, the userland can detect the availability of a feature by
checking for the corresponding file in oprofilefs. If it exists, the
feature also exists. This may lead to a dynamic file layout depending
on the cpu type with that the userland has to deal with. Current
opcontrol is compatible.

Standard AMD systems have the same number of nodes as there are
northbridge devices. However, there may kernel configurations
(especially for 32 bit) or system setups exist, where the node number
is different or it can not be detected properly. Thus the check is not
reliable and may fail though IBS setup was fine. For this reason it is
better to remove the check.

since it didn't initialize the cp0_compare_irq_shift variable used in
c0_compare_int_pending() on the architectures whose cpu_has_mips_r2 is

We need to fall back from logical-flat APIC mode to physical-flat mode
when we have more than 8 CPUs. However, in the presence of CPU
hotplug(with bios listing not enabled but possible cpus as disabled cpus in
MADT), we have to consider the number of possible CPUs rather than
the number of current CPUs; otherwise we may cross the 8-CPU boundary
when CPUs are added later.
32bit apic code can use more cleanups (like the removal of vendor checks in
32bit default_setup_apic_routing()) and more unifications with 64bit code.

Commit f71dc176aa06359681c30ba6877ffccab6fba3a6 'Make
hpte_need_flush() correctly mask for multiple page sizes' introduced
bug, which is triggered when a kernel with a 64k base page size is run
on a system whose hardware does not 64k hash PTEs. In this case, we
emulate 64k pages with multiple 4k hash PTEs, however in
hpte_need_flush() we incorrectly only mask the hardware page size from
the address, instead of the logical page size. This causes things to
go wrong when we later attempt to iterate through the hardware
subpages of the logical page.
This patch corrects the error. It has been tested on pSeries bare
metal by Michael Neuling.

The code to track the CPPR values added by commit
49bd3647134ea47420067aea8d1401e722bf2aac ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous
CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because
the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has
been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON
in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0.
Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling
xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu().
Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just
one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of
os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index].
While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.

Unfortunately, due to poor DWARF info in current toolchains, unwinding
through interrutps cannot be done reliably. The problem is that the
DWARF info for function epilogues is wrong.
Take this standard epilogue sequence,
80003cc4: e3 6f mov r14,r15
80003cc6: 26 4f lds.l @r15+,pr
80003cc8: f6 6e mov.l @r15+,r14
<---- interrupt here
80003cca: f6 6b mov.l @r15+,r11
80003ccc: f6 6a mov.l @r15+,r10
80003cce: f6 69 mov.l @r15+,r9
80003cd0: 0b 00 rts
If we take an interrupt at the highlighted point, the DWARF info will
bogusly claim that the return address can be found at some offset from
the frame pointer, even though the frame pointer was just restored. The
worst part is if the unwinder finds a text address at the bogus stack
address - unwinding will continue, for a bit, until it finally comes
across an unexpected address on the stack and blows up.
The only solution is to stop unwinding once we've calculated the
function that was executing when the interrupt occurred. This PC can be
easily calculated from pt_regs->pc.

The address that ret_from_exception and ret_from_irq will return to is

DWARF unwinder to pick up the wrong return address on the stack and then
unwind using the unwind tables for the wrong function.
While I'm here I might as well add CFI annotations for the other
registers since they could be useful when unwinding.

Currently the omap serial clocks are autoidled after 5 seconds.
However, this causes lost characters on the serial ports. As this
is considered non-standard behaviour for Linux, disable the timeout.
Note that this will also cause blocking of any deeper omap sleep

To enable the autoidling of the serial ports, do something like
