* [PATCH] EDAC: core EDAC support codeAlan Cox2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a subset of the bluesmoke project core code, stripped of the NMI work which isn't ready to merge and some of the "interesting" proc functionality that needs reworking or just has no place in kernel. It requires no core kernel changes except the added scrub functions already posted. The goal is to merge further functionality only after the core code is accepted and proven in the base kernel, and only at the point the upstream extras are really ready to merge. From: doug thompson <norsk5@xmission.com> This converts EDAC to sysfs and is the final chunk neccessary before EDAC has a stable user space API and can be considered for submission into the base kernel.

* [PATCH] EDAC: atomic scrub operationsAlan Cox2006-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EDAC requires a way to scrub memory if an ECC error is found and the chipset does not do the work automatically. That means rewriting memory locations atomically with respect to all CPUs _and_ bus masters. That means we can't use atomic_add(foo, 0) as it gets optimised for non-SMP This adds a function to include/asm-foo/atomic.h for the platforms currently supported which implements a scrub of a mapped block. It also adjusts a few other files include order where atomic.h is included before types.h as this now causes an error as atomic_scrub uses u32.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Fix VSMP buildRavikiran G Thirumalai2006-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch fixes a build problem with CONFIG_X86_VSMP. The vSMP bits probably gathered some fuzz on its way to mainline, and safe_halt() which was outside the #endif (CONFIG_X86_VSMP) somehow got inside the !CONFIG_X86_VSMP condition, hence being undefined and breaking CONFIG_X86_VSMP builds.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Flexmap for 32bit and randomized mappings for 64bitAndi Kleen2006-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Another try at this. For 32bit follow the 32bit implementation from Ingo - mappings are growing down from the end of stack now and vary randomly by 1GB. Randomized mappings for 64bit just vary the normal mmap break by 1TB. I didn't bother implementing full flex mmap for 64bit because it shouldn't be needed there.

* [PATCH] scheduler cache-hot-autodetectakpm@osdl.org2006-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ) From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> This is the latest version of the scheduler cache-hot-auto-tune patch. The first problem was that detection time scaled with O(N^2), which is unacceptable on larger SMP and NUMA systems. To solve this: - I've added a 'domain distance' function, which is used to cache measurement results. Each distance is only measured once. This means that e.g. on NUMA distances of 0, 1 and 2 might be measured, on HT distances 0 and 1, and on SMP distance 0 is measured. The code walks the domain tree to determine the distance, so it automatically follows whatever hierarchy an architecture sets up. This cuts down on the boot time significantly and removes the O(N^2) limit. The only assumption is that migration costs can be expressed as a function of domain distance - this covers the overwhelming majority of existing systems, and is a good guess even for more assymetric systems. [ People hacking systems that have assymetries that break this assumption (e.g. different CPU speeds) should experiment a bit with the cpu_distance() function. Adding a ->migration_distance factor to the domain structure would be one possible solution - but lets first see the problem systems, if they exist at all. Lets not overdesign. ] Another problem was that only a single cache-size was used for measuring the cost of migration, and most architectures didnt set that variable up. Furthermore, a single cache-size does not fit NUMA hierarchies with L3 caches and does not fit HT setups, where different CPUs will often have different 'effective cache sizes'. To solve this problem: - Instead of relying on a single cache-size provided by the platform and sticking to it, the code now auto-detects the 'effective migration cost' between two measured CPUs, via iterating through a wide range of cachesizes. The code searches for the maximum migration cost, which occurs when the working set of the test-workload falls just below the 'effective cache size'. I.e. real-life optimized search is done for the maximum migration cost, between two real CPUs. This, amongst other things, has the positive effect hat if e.g. two CPUs share a L2/L3 cache, a different (and accurate) migration cost will be found than between two CPUs on the same system that dont share any caches. (The reliable measurement of migration costs is tricky - see the source for details.) Furthermore i've added various boot-time options to override/tune migration behavior. Firstly, there's a blanket override for autodetection: migration_cost=1000,2000,3000 will override the depth 0/1/2 values with 1msec/2msec/3msec values. Secondly, there's a global factor that can be used to increase (or decrease) the autodetected values: migration_factor=120 will increase the autodetected values by 20%. This option is useful to tune things in a workload-dependent way - e.g. if a workload is cache-insensitive then CPU utilization can be maximized by specifying migration_factor=0. I've tested the autodetection code quite extensively on x86, on 3 P3/Xeon/2MB, and the autodetected values look pretty good: Dual Celeron (128K L2 cache): --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 131072, cpu: 467 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [00]: - 1.7(1) [01]: 1.7(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 1.7 (1784008) --------------------- Here the slow memory subsystem dominates system performance, and even though caches are small, the migration cost is 1.7 msecs. Dual HT P4 (512K L2 cache): --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 524288, cpu: 2379 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [02] [03] [00]: - 0.4(1) 0.0(0) 0.4(1) [01]: 0.4(1) - 0.4(1) 0.0(0) [02]: 0.0(0) 0.4(1) - 0.4(1) [03]: 0.4(1) 0.0(0) 0.4(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (33900) 0.4 (448514) --------------------- Here it can be seen that there is no migration cost between two HT siblings (CPU#0/2 and CPU#1/3 are separate physical CPUs). A fast memory system makes inter-physical-CPU migration pretty cheap: 0.4 msecs. 8-way P3/Xeon [2MB L2 cache]: --------------------- migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 2097152, cpu: 700 MHz): --------------------- [00] [01] [02] [03] [04] [05] [06] [07] [00]: - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [01]: 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [02]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [03]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [04]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [05]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) 19.2(1) [06]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - 19.2(1) [07]: 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) - --------------------- cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 19.2 (19281756) --------------------- This one has huge caches and a relatively slow memory subsystem - so the migration cost is 19 msecs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch enables early intialization of cpu_to_node. apicid_to_node is built by reading the SRAT table, from acpi_numa_init with ACPI_NUMA and k8_scan_nodes with K8_NUMA. x86_cpu_to_apicid is built by parsing the ACPI MADT table, from acpi_boot_init. We combine these two tables and setup cpu_to_node. Early intialization helps the static per_cpu_areas in getting pages from correct node. Change since last release: Do not initialize early init_cpu_to_node for faking node cases. Patch tested on TYAN dual core 4P board with K8 only, ACPI_NUMA. Tested on EM64T NUMA.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Use function pointers to call DMA mapping functionsMuli Ben-Yehuda2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AK: I hacked Muli's original patch a lot and there were a lot of changes - all bugs are probably to blame on me now. There were also some changes in the fall back behaviour for swiotlb - in particular it doesn't try to use GFP_DMA now anymore. Also all DMA mapping operations use the same core dma_alloc_coherent code with proper fallbacks now. And various other changes and cleanups. Known problems: iommu=force swiotlb=force together breaks needs more testing. This patch cleans up x86_64's DMA mapping dispatching code. Right now we have three possible IOMMU types: AGP GART, swiotlb and nommu, and in the future we will also have Xen's x86_64 swiotlb and other HW IOMMUs for x86_64. In order to support all of them cleanly, this patch: - introduces a struct dma_mapping_ops with function pointers for each of the DMA mapping operations of gart (AMD HW IOMMU), swiotlb (software IOMMU) and nommu (no IOMMU). - gets rid of: if (swiotlb) return swiotlb_xxx(); - PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS is now checked against the dma_ops being set This makes swiotlb faster by avoiding double copying in some cases.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Add idle notifiersAndi Kleen2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new notifier chain that is called with IDLE_START when a CPU goes idle and IDLE_END when it goes out of idle. The context can be idle thread or interrupt context. Since we cannot rely on MONITOR/MWAIT existing the idle end check currently has to be done in all interrupt handlers. They were originally inspired by the similar s390 implementation. They have a variety of applications: - They will be needed for CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ - They can be used for oprofile to fix up the missing time in idle when performance counters don't tick. - They can be used for better C state management in ACPI - They could be used for microstate accounting.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Handle missing local APIC timer interrupts on C3 stateVenkatesh Pallipadi2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever we see that a CPU is capable of C3 (during ACPI cstate init), we disable local APIC timer and switch to using a broadcast from external timer interrupt (IRQ 0). Patch below adds the code for x86_64. Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] x86_64: Fix 64bit FXSAVE encodingJan Beulich2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | The separation of the rex64 prefix (on fxsave/fxrstor) by way of using a semicolon resulted in the prefix not always taking effect (because when extended registers are needed for addressing, another rex prefix would have been generated by the compiler), thus (depending on the build) resulting in eventually getting 32-bit saves and/or restores.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Generalize DMI and enable for x86-64Andi Kleen2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some people need it now on 64bit so reuse the i386 code for x86-64. This will be also useful for future bug workarounds. It is a bit simplified there because there is no need to do it very early on x86-64. This means it doesn't need early ioremap et.al. We run it as a core initcall right now. I hope it's not needed for early setup. I added a general CONFIG_DMI symbol in case IA64 or someone else wants to reuse the code later too.

| | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed, the flags register on x86-64 is saved and restored by the assembly code which sets up struct pt_regs, so we do not need to save and restore it in the inline assembler which already informs gcc that we're clobbering the flags.

* [PATCH] x86_64: Move int 3 handler to debug stack and allow to increase it.Jan Beulich2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This - switches the INT3 handler to run on an IST stack (to cope with breakpoints set by a kernel debugger on places where the kernel's %gs base hasn't been set up, yet); the IST stack used is shared with the INT1 handler's [AK: this also allows setting a kprobe on the interrupt/exception entry points] - allows nesting of INT1/INT3 handlers so that one can, with a kernel debugger, debug (at least) the user-mode portions of the INT1/INT3 handling; the nesting isn't actively enabled here since a kernel- debugger-free kernel doesn't need it Signed-Off-By: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
