x86/microcode_amd: Add support for CPU family specific container files

2012-02-03T17:18:56+00:00

commit 5b68edc91cdc972c46f76f85eded7ffddc3ff5c2 upstream.

We've decided to provide CPU family specific container files
(starting with CPU family 15h). E.g. for family 15h we have to
load microcode_amd_fam15h.bin instead of microcode_amd.bin

Rationale is that starting with family 15h patch size is larger
than 2KB which was hard coded as maximum patch size in various
microcode loaders (not just Linux).

Container files which include patches larger than 2KB cause
different kinds of trouble with such old patch loaders. Thus we
have to ensure that the default container file provides only
patches with size less than 2KB.

x86, UV: Update Boot messages for SGI UV2 platform

2012-01-26T01:24:49+00:00

commit da517a08ac5913cd80ce3507cddd00f2a091b13c upstream.

SGI UV systems print a message during boot:

	UV: Found  blades

Due to packaging changes, the blade count is not accurate for
on the next generation of the platform. This patch corrects the
count.

x86/PCI: amd: factor out MMCONFIG discovery

2012-01-26T01:24:39+00:00

commit 24d25dbfa63c376323096660bfa9ad45a08870ce upstream.

This factors out the AMD native MMCONFIG discovery so we can use it
outside amd_bus.c.

amd_bus.c reads AMD MSRs so it can remove the MMCONFIG area from the
PCI resources.  We may also need the MMCONFIG information to work
around BIOS defects in the ACPI MCFG table.

x86, hpet: Immediately disable HPET timer 1 if rtc irq is masked

2011-12-21T20:57:39+00:00

commit 2ded6e6a94c98ea453a156748cb7fabaf39a76b9 upstream.

When HPET is operating in RTC mode, the TN_ENABLE bit on timer1
controls whether the HPET or the RTC delivers interrupts to irq8. When
the system goes into suspend, the RTC driver sends a signal to the
HPET driver so that the HPET releases control of irq8, allowing the
RTC to wake the system from suspend. The switchover is accomplished by
a write to the HPET configuration registers which currently only
occurs while servicing the HPET interrupt.

On some systems, I have seen the system suspend before an HPET
interrupt occurs, preventing the write to the HPET configuration
register and leaving the HPET in control of the irq8. As the HPET is
not active during suspend, it does not generate a wake signal and RTC
alarms do not work.

This patch forces the HPET driver to immediately transfer control of
the irq8 channel to the RTC instead of waiting until the next
interrupt event.

perf/x86: Fix PEBS instruction unwind

2011-12-09T16:52:44+00:00

commit 57d1c0c03c6b48b2b96870d831b9ce6b917f53ac upstream.

Masami spotted that we always try to decode the instruction stream as
64bit instructions when running a 64bit kernel, this doesn't work for
ia32-compat proglets.

Use TIF_IA32 to detect if we need to use the 32bit instruction
decoder.

x86: Fix "Acer Aspire 1" reboot hang

2011-12-09T16:52:43+00:00

commit 1ef03890969932e9359b9a4c658f7f87771910ac upstream.

Looks like on some Acer Aspire 1s with older bioses, reboot via bios
fails.  It works on my machine, (with BIOS version 0.3310) but
not on some others (BIOS version 0.3309).

There's a log of problems at:

  https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124136

This patch adds a different callback to the reboot quirk table,
to allow rebooting via keybaord controller.

x86/mpparse: Account for bus types other than ISA and PCI

2011-12-09T16:52:43+00:00

commit 9e6866686bdf2dcf3aeb0838076237ede532dcc8 upstream.

In commit f8924e770e04 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit
and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each
other better.  Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior
to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit,
then clear it if we found a PCI bus.  After it, we set
mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave
it alone otherwise.

In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference.  But
ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set
mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI.

Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot
with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the
"noapic" option is supplied.  With this change, the machine
boots reliably without "noapic".

apic, i386/bigsmp: Fix false warnings regarding logical APIC ID mismatches

2011-11-11T17:35:52+00:00

commit 838312be46f3abfbdc175f81c3e54a857994476d upstream.

These warnings (generally one per CPU) are a result of
initializing x86_cpu_to_logical_apicid while apic_default is
still in use, but the check in setup_local_APIC() being done
when apic_bigsmp was already used as an override in
default_setup_apic_routing():

 Overriding APIC driver with bigsmp

Fix this (for the time being, i.e. until
x86_32_early_logical_apicid() will get removed again, as Tejun
says ought to be possible) by overriding the previously stored
values at the point where the APIC driver gets overridden.

    arch/x86/kernel/apic/bigsmp_32.c.

x86: Fix compilation bug in kprobes' twobyte_is_boostable

2011-11-11T17:35:27+00:00

commit 315eb8a2a1b7f335d40ceeeb11b9e067475eb881 upstream.

When compiling an i386_defconfig kernel with gcc-4.6.1-9.fc15.i686, I
noticed a warning about the asm operand for test_bit in kprobes'
can_boost.  I discovered that this caused only the first long of
twobyte_is_boostable[] to be output.

Jakub filed and fixed gcc PR50571 to correct the warning and this output
issue.  But to solve it for less current gcc, we can make kprobes'
twobyte_is_boostable[] non-const, and it won't be optimized out.

Only a single long of twobyte_is_boostable[] is in the object file.

After, without the const on twobyte_is_boostable:

  $ objdump -rd arch/x86/kernel/kprobes.o | grep -A1 -w bt
       551:	0f a3 05 20 00 00 00 	bt     %eax,0x20

Now all 32 bytes are output into .data instead.
