| | | | | | | | | | | | There is some macro magic in traps_32.c to construct standard exception dispatch functions.

* arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c: Clarify when irq processing begins.Manfred Spraul2008-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Secondary cpus start with local interrupts disabled. start_secondary() first initializes the new cpu, then it enables the local interrupts. (although interrupts are enabled within smp_callin() as well). Right now, the local interrupts are enabled as a side effect of calling ipi_call_lock_irq(). The attached patch clarifies when local interrupts are enabled. Signed-off-by: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

State in the memory layout setup by 'xsave' will be consistent with the bit values in the header. During signal handling, legacy applications may change the FP/SSE bits in the sigcontext memory layout without touching the FP/SSE header bits in the xsave header. So always set FP/SSE bits in the xsave header while saving the sigcontext state to the user space. During signal return, this will enable the kernel to capture any changes to the FP/SSE bits by the legacy applications which don't touch xsave headers. xsave aware apps can change the xstate_bv in the xsave header aswell as change any contents in the memory layout. xrestor as part of sigreturn will capture all the changes.

Currently we reserve this memory on all AMI and Phoenix BIOS systems. Life is too short to hunt subtle memory corruption problems like this, so we try to be robust by default. Still, allow this to be overriden: allow users who want that first 64K of memory to be available to the kernel disable the quirk, via CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K=n. Also, allow the early reservation to overlap with other early reservations. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

So add a DMI quirk This will waste 64K RAM on 'good' systems too, but without knowing the exact nature of this BIOS memory corruption this is the safest approach. This might as well solve a wide range of suspend/resume breakages under Linux. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Detect AMI BIOSen and reserve that 1K. We paint this bug around with a very broad brush (reserving that 1K on all AMI BIOS systems), as the bug was extremely hard to find and needed several weeks and lots of debugging and patching. The bug was found via the CONFIG_X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION=y debug feature, if similar bugs are suspected then this feature can be enabled on other systems as well to scan low memory for corrupted memory.

This change: - Reserves all memory which does not have to be in that area, to prevent it from being used as general memory by the kernel. Things like the SMP trampoline are still in the memory, however. - Clears the reserved memory so we can observe changes to it. - Adds a function check_for_bios_corruption() which checks and reports on memory becoming unexpectedly non-zero. Currently it's called in the x86 fault handler, and the powermanagement debug output. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
