The printk level in this printk is bogus, as the previous printk
didn't have a terminating \n resulting in ..

Intel E7520/7320/7525 detected.&lt;6&gt;Disabling irq balancing and affinity

It also never printed a \n at all in the case where we didn't do
the quirk.

Change it to only make noise if it actually does something useful.

Writing to MSR 0x51400017 forces a hard reset on CS5536-based machines,
this has the reboot fixup do just that if such a board is detected.

<title>MTRR: Fix race causing set_mtrr to go into infinite loop</title>

<id>d25c1ba2fa1a9a1a4f68bef8edb0efefd79f0012</id>
<content type='text'>
Processors synchronization in set_mtrr requires the .gate field to be set
after .count field is properly initialized.  Without an explicit barrier,
the compiler was reordering those memory stores.  That was sometimes
causing a processor (in ipi_handler) to see the .gate change and decrement
.count before the latter is set by set_mtrr() (which then hangs in a
infinite loop with irqs disabled).

<title>i386: fix regression, endless loop in ptrace singlestep over an int80</title>
<updated>2007-07-06T17:23:43+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=1e2e99f0e4aa6363e8515ed17011c210c8f1b52a'/>
<id>1e2e99f0e4aa6363e8515ed17011c210c8f1b52a</id>
<content type='text'>
The commit 635cf99a80f4ebee59d70eb64bb85ce829e4591f introduced a
regression.  Executing a ptrace single step after certain int80
accesses will infinitely loop and never advance the PC.

The TIF_SINGLESTEP check should be done on the return from the syscall
and not before it.

I loops on each single step on the pop right after the int80 which writes out
to the console.  At that point you can issue as many single steps as you want
and it will not advance any further.

The test case is below:

/* Test whether singlestep through an int80 syscall works.
 */
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/ptrace.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/wait.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
#include &lt;asm/user.h&gt;
#include &lt;string.h&gt;

static int child, status;
static struct user_regs_struct regs;

static void do_child()
{
	char str[80] = "child: int80 test\n";

	ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, 0, 0);
	kill(getpid(), SIGUSR1);
	write(fileno(stdout),str,strlen(str));
	asm ("int $0x80" : : "a" (20)); /* getpid */
}

static void do_parent()
{
	unsigned long eip, expected = 0;
again:
	waitpid(child, &amp;status, 0);
	if (WIFEXITED(status) || WIFSIGNALED(status))
		return;

	if (WIFSTOPPED(status)) {
		ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGS, child, 0, &amp;regs);
		eip = regs.eip;
		if (expected)
			fprintf(stderr, "child stop @ %08lx, expected %08lx %s\n",
					eip, expected,
					eip == expected ? "" : " &lt;== ERROR");

		if (*(unsigned short *)eip == 0x80cd) {
			fprintf(stderr, "int 0x80 at %08x\n", (unsigned int)eip);
			expected = eip + 2;
		} else
			expected = 0;

		ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, child, NULL, NULL);
	}
	goto again;
}

int main(int argc, char * const argv[])
{
	child = fork();
	if (child)
		do_parent();
	else
		do_child();
	return 0;

The idle loop goes to sleep using the WAIT instruction if !need_resched().
This has is suffering from from a race condition that if if just after
need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but
we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway.  This would be
trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in:

        local_irq_disable();
        if (!need_resched())
                __asm__("wait");
        local_irq_enable();

but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling
WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed
some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture
definition.  This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that
the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores.  It also is safe on
74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts
disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that.

If only modules were users of these functions they did not get linked into
the kernel proper, so later module loads would fail as well.
