| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rebooting on the Dell E5420 often hangs with the keyboard or ACPI methods, but is reliable via the PCI method. [ hpa: this was deferred because we believed for a long time that the recent reshuffling of the boot priorities in commit 660e34cebf0a11d54f2d5dd8838607452355f321 fixed this platform. Unfortunately that turned out to be incorrect. ] Signed-off-by: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1305248699-2347-1-git-send-email-daniel.blueman@gmail.com Signed-off-by: H.

| * x86, suspend: Restore MISC_ENABLE MSR in realmode wakeupKees Cook2011-07-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some BIOSes will reset the Intel MISC_ENABLE MSR (specifically the XD_DISABLE bit) when resuming from S3, which can interact poorly with ebba638ae723d8a8fc2f7abce5ec18b688b791d7. In 32bit PAE mode, this can lead to a fault when EFER is restored by the kernel wakeup routines, due to it setting the NX bit for a CPU that (thanks to the BIOS reset) now incorrectly thinks it lacks the NX feature. (64bit is not affected because it uses a common CPU bring-up that specifically handles the XD_DISABLE bit.) The need for MISC_ENABLE being restored so early is specific to the S3 resume path. Normally, MISC_ENABLE is saved in save_processor_state(), but this happens after the resume header is created, so just reproduce the logic here. (acpi_suspend_lowlevel() creates the header, calls do_suspend_lowlevel, which calls save_processor_state(), so the saved processor context isn't available during resume header creation.)

The cpu which brought up the new cpu waits for the cpu_online bit and when it observes it, it sets the cpu_active bit for this cpu. The cpu_active bit is the relevant one for the scheduler to consider the cpu as a viable target. With forced threaded interrupt handlers which imply forced threaded softirqs we observed the following race: cpu 0 cpu 1 bringup(cpu1); set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); local_irq_enable(); while (!cpu_online(cpu1)); timer_interrupt() -> wake_up(softirq_thread_cpu1); -> enqueue_on(softirq_thread_cpu1, cpu0); ^^^^ cpu_notify(CPU_ONLINE, cpu1); -> sched_cpu_active(cpu1) -> set_cpu_active((cpu1, true); When an interrupt happens before the cpu_active bit is set by the cpu which brought up the newly onlined cpu, then the scheduler refuses to enqueue the woken thread which is bound to that newly onlined cpu on that newly onlined cpu due to the not yet set cpu_active bit and selects a fallback runqueue. Not really an expected and desirable behaviour. So far this has only been observed with forced hard/softirq threading, but in theory this could happen without forced threaded hard/softirqs as well. It's probably unobservable as it would take a massive interrupt storm on the newly onlined cpu which causes the softirq loop to wake up the softirq thread and an even longer delay of the cpu which waits for the cpu_online bit.

This, in fact, breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being ever successful if the first candidate fails to load. With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded) probed paths. Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread() will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.

Deprecate mwait_idle() and the "idle=mwait" cmdline param to simplify the x86 idle code. After this change, kernels configured with (!CONFIG_ACPI=n && !CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware that support MWAIT will simply use HLT. If MWAIT is desired on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above can be used. cc: x86@kernel.org cc: stable@kernel.org # .39.x Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

Use the string "e400" to clarify that the workaround is specific to AMD processors with Erratum 400.

This erratum is present on certain processor families and prevents APIC timer from waking up the CPU when it is in a deep C state, including C1E state. Determining whether a processor is affected by this erratum may have some corner cases and handling these cases is somewhat complicated. In the interest of simplicity we won't claim ARAT support on processor families below 0x12 and will go back to broadcasting timer when going idle.

The UEFI specification provides for runtime services (ie, another way for the operating system to be forced to depend on the firmware) and we rely on these for certain trivial tasks such as setting up the bootloader. But some hardware fails to work if we attempt to use these runtime services from physical mode, and so we have to switch into virtual mode. So far so dreadful. The specification makes it clear that the operating system is free to do whatever it wants with boot services code after ExitBootServices() has been called. SetVirtualAddressMap() can't be called until ExitBootServices() has been. So, obviously, a whole bunch of EFI implementations call into boot services code when we do that. Since we've been charmingly naive and trusted that the specification may be somehow relevant to the real world, we've already stuffed a picture of a penguin or something in that address space. And just to make things more entertaining, we've also marked it non-executable. This patch allocates the boot services regions during EFI init and makes sure that they're executable. Then, after SetVirtualAddressMap(), it discards them and everyone lives happily ever after. Except for the ones who have to work on EFI, who live sad lives haunted by the knowledge that someone's eventually going to write yet another firmware specification.

While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up.

The Intel manual says that lfence;rdtsc causes all previous instructions to complete before the tsc is read, and the AMD manual says to use mfence;rdtsc to do the same thing. From a decent amount of testing [1] this is enough to make rdtsc be ordered with respect to subsequent loads across a wide variety of CPUs. On Sandy Bridge (i7-2600), this improves a loop of clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) by more than 5 ns/iter.

They are each defined with their own magic, they are accessed differently in the kernel, the vsyscall page, and the vdso, and one of them (vsyscall_clock) doesn't even really exist. This changes them all to use a common mechanism. All of them are delcared in vvar.h with a fixed address (validated by the linker script). In the kernel (as before), they look like ordinary read-write variables. In the vsyscall page and the vdso, they are accessed through a new macro VVAR, which gives read-only access. The vdso is now loaded verbatim into memory without any fixups. As a side bonus, access from the vdso is faster because a level of indirection is removed. While we're at it, pack jiffies and vgetcpu_mode into the same cacheline.
