commit 10ccaf178b2b961d8bca252d647ed7ed8aae2a20 upstream.

In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, use device_online() and
device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down().

Calling cpu_up/down() directly does not update the cpu device offline
field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling
device_online/offline() instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value
correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling
device_online/offline(), is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu()
are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store().

This patch fixes errors on phyp (PowerVM) systems that have cpu(s)
added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the
online state of added/removed cpus.

<title>x86, apic: Handle a bad TSC more gracefully</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b47dcbdc5161d3d5756f430191e2840d9b855492 upstream.

If the TSC is unusable or disabled, then this patch fixes:

 - Confusion while trying to clear old APIC interrupts.
 - Division by zero and incorrect programming of the TSC deadline
   timer.

This fixes boot if the CPU has a TSC deadline timer but a missing or
broken TSC.  The failure to boot can be observed with qemu using
-cpu qemu64,-tsc,+tsc-deadline

This also happens to me in nested KVM for unknown reasons.
With this patch, I can boot cleanly (although without a TSC).

<title>x86: Add cpu_detect_cache_sizes to init_intel() add Quark legacy_cache()</title>

<id>5a748efef40bbab4da571c584494cc242f081be5</id>
<content type='text'>
commit aece118e487a744eafcdd0c77fe32b55ee2092a1 upstream.

Intel processors which don't report cache information via cpuid(2)
or cpuid(4) need quirk code in the legacy_cache_size callback to
report this data. For Intel that callback is is intel_size_cache().

This patch enables calling of cpu_detect_cache_sizes() inside of
init_intel() and hence the calling of the legacy_cache callback in
intel_size_cache(). Adding this call will ensure that PIII Tualatin
currently in intel_size_cache() and Quark SoC X1000 being added to
intel_size_cache() in this patch will report their respective cache
sizes.

This model of calling cpu_detect_cache_sizes() is consistent with
AMD/Via/Cirix/Transmeta and Centaur.

Also added is a string to idenitfy the Quark as Quark SoC X1000
giving better and more descriptive output via /proc/cpuinfo

Adding cpu_detect_cache_sizes to init_intel() will enable calling
of intel_size_cache() on Intel processors which currently no code
can reach. Therefore this patch will also re-enable reporting
of PIII Tualatin cache size information as well as add
Quark SoC X1000 support.

<title>x86, iosf: Make IOSF driver modular and usable by more drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 6b8f0c8780c71d78624f736d7849645b64cc88b7 upstream.

Currently drivers that run on non-IOSF systems (Core/Xeon) can't use the IOSF
driver on SOC's without selecting it which forces an unnecessary and limiting
dependency. Provides dummy functions to allow these modules to conditionally
use the driver on IOSF equipped platforms without impacting their ability to
compile and load on non-IOSF platforms. Build default m to ensure availability
on x86 SOC's.

commit 6b8f0c8780c71d78624f736d7849645b64cc88b7 upstream.

Currently drivers that run on non-IOSF systems (Core/Xeon) can't use the IOSF
driver on SOC's without selecting it which forces an unnecessary and limiting
dependency. Provides dummy functions to allow these modules to conditionally
use the driver on IOSF equipped platforms without impacting their ability to
compile and load on non-IOSF platforms. Build default m to ensure availability
on x86 SOC's.

<title>MIPS: tlbex: Properly fix HUGE TLB Refill exception handler</title>

commit 9e0f162a36914937a937358fcb45e0609ef2bfc4 upstream.

In commit 8393c524a25609 (MIPS: tlbex: Fix a missing statement for
HUGETLB), the TLB Refill handler was fixed so that non-OCTEON targets
would work properly with huge pages.  The change was incorrect in that
it broke the OCTEON case.

The problem is shown here:

    xxx0:	df7a0000 	ld	k0,0(k1)
    .
    .
    .
    xxxc0:	df610000 	ld	at,0(k1)
    xxxc4:	335a0ff0 	andi	k0,k0,0xff0
    xxxc8:	e825ffcd 	bbit1	at,0x5,0x0
    xxxcc:	003ad82d 	daddu	k1,at,k0
    .
    .
    .

In the non-octeon case there is a destructive test for the huge PTE
bit, and then at 0, $k0 is reloaded (that is what the 8393c524a25609
patch added).

In the octeon case, we modify k1 in the branch delay slot, but we
never need k0 again, so the new load is not needed, but since k1 is
modified, if we do the load, we load from a garbage location and then
get a nested TLB Refill, which is seen in userspace as either SIGBUS
or SIGSEGV (depending on the garbage).

The real fix is to only do this reloading if it is needed, and never
where it is harmful.
