From 4badad352a6bb202ec68afa7a574c0bb961e5ebc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2014 19:53:16 +0200 Subject: locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some architectures The optimistic spin code assumes regular stores and cmpxchg() play nice; this is found to not be true for at least: parisc, sparc32, tile32, metag-lock1, arc-!llsc and hexagon. There is further wreckage, but this in particular seemed easy to trigger, so blacklist this. Opt in for known good archs.

Currently APEI depends on x86 architecture. It is because of NMI hardware error notification of GHES which is currently supported by x86 only. However, many other APEI features can be still used perfectly by other architectures. This commit adds two symbols: 1. HAVE_ACPI_APEI for those archs which support APEI. 2. HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI which is used for NMI code isolation in ghes.c file. NMI related data and functions are grouped so they can be wrapped inside one #ifdef section. Appropriate function stubs are provided for !NMI case. Note there is no functional changes for x86 due to hard selected HAVE_ACPI_APEI and HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI symbols.
