* x86: support always running TSC on Intel CPUs, add cpufeature definitionIngo Molnar2008-12-16
| | | | | | | | | Impact: add new synthetic-cpuid bit definition add X86_FEATURE_NONSTOP_TSC to the cpufeature bits - this is in preparation of Venki's always-running-TSC patch. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86: remove duplicate #define from 'cpufeature.h'Hannes Eder2008-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: cleanup Remove duplicate #define from 'cpufeature.h'. This also fixes the following sparse warning: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/capflags.c:54:3: warning: Initializer entry defined twice arch/x86/kernel/cpu/capflags.c:58:3: also defined here Signed-off-by: Hannes Eder <hannes@hanneseder.net> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86: add X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR feature bitAlok Kataria2008-11-01
| | | | | | | | Impact: Number declaration only. Add X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR bit (CPUID level 1, ECX, bit 31). Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* x86: add a synthetic TSC_RELIABLE feature bitAlok Kataria2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: None, bit reservation only Add a synthetic TSC_RELIABLE feature bit which will be used to mark TSC as reliable so that we could skip all the runtime checks for TSC stablity, which have false positives in virtual environment.

* x86: fix AMDC1E and XTOPOLOGY conflict in cpufeatureVenki Pallipadi2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix xsave slowdown regression Fix two features from conflicting in feature bits. Fixes this performance regression: Subject: cpu2000(both float and int) 13% regression with 2.6.28-rc1 http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/28/36 Reported-by: "Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Bisected-by: "Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guardsH. Peter Anvin2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since: a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless. b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
