Consolidates code and fixes the below race for 64-bit.
commit 9fa2f37bfeb798728241cc4a19578ce6e4258f25
Author: torvalds <torvalds>
Date: Tue Sep 2 07:37:25 2003 +0000
Be a lot more careful about TS_USEDFPU and preemption
We had some races where we testecd (or set) TS_USEDFPU together
with sequences that depended on the setting (like clearing or
setting the TS flag in %cr0) and we could be preempted in between,
which screws up the FPU state, since preemption will itself change
USEDFPU and the TS flag.
This makes it a lot more explicit: the "internal" low-level FPU
functions ("__xxxx_fpu()") all require preemption to be disabled,
and the exported "real" functions will make sure that is the case.
One case - in __switch_to() - was switched to the non-preempt-safe
internal version, since the scheduler itself has already disabled
preemption.

The AMD SSE5 feature set as-it has been replaced by some extensions
to the AVX instruction set. Thus the bit formerly advertised as SSE5
is re-used for one of these extensions (XOP).
Although this changes the /proc/cpuinfo output, it is not user visible, as
there are no CPUs (yet) having this feature.
To avoid confusion this should be added to the stable series, too.

In 'pci_swiotlb_detect' we used to do two different things:
a). If user provided 'iommu=soft' or 'swiotlb=force' we
would set swiotlb=1 and return 1 (and forcing pci-dma.c
to call pci_swiotlb_init() immediately).
b). If 4GB or more would be detected and if user did not specify
iommu=off, we would set 'swiotlb=1' and return whatever 'a)'
figured out.
We simplify this by splitting a) and b) in two different routines.

We are using a very simple sort routine which sorts the .iommu_table
array in the order of dependencies. Specifically each structure
of iommu_table_entry has a field 'depend' which contains the function
pointer to the IOMMU that MUST be run before us. We sort the array
of structures so that the struct iommu_table_entry with no
'depend' field are first, and then the subsequent ones are the
ones for which the 'depend' function has been already invoked
(in other words, precede us).
Using the kernel's version 'sort', which is a mergeheap is
feasible, but would require making the comparison operator
scan recursivly the array to satisfy the "heapify" process: setting the
levels properly. The end result would much more complex than it should
be an it is just much simpler to utilize this simple sort routine.

This patch set adds a mechanism to "modularize" the IOMMUs we have
on X86. Currently the count of IOMMUs is up to six and they have a complex
relationship that requires careful execution order. 'pci_iommu_alloc'
does that today, but most folks are unhappy with how it does it.
This patch set addresses this and also paves a mechanism to jettison
unused IOMMUs during run-time. For details that sparked this, please
refer to: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/2/282
The first solution that comes to mind is to convert wholesale
the IOMMU detection routines to be called during initcall
time frame. Unfortunately that misses the dependency relationship
that some of the IOMMUs have (for example: for AMD-Vi IOMMU to work,
GART detection MUST run first, and before all of that SWIOTLB MUST run).
The second solution would be to introduce a registration call wherein
the IOMMU would provide its detection/init routines and as well on what
MUST run before it. That would work, except that the 'pci_iommu_alloc'
which would run through this list, is called during mem_init. This means we
don't have any memory allocator, and it is so early that we haven't yet
started running through the initcall_t list.
This solution borrows concepts from the 2nd idea and from how
MODULE_INIT works. A macro is provided that each IOMMU uses to define
it's detect function and early_init (before the memory allocate is
active), and as well what other IOMMU MUST run before us. Since most IOMMUs
depend on having SWIOTLB run first ("pci_swiotlb_detect") a convenience macro
to depends on that is also provided.
This macro is similar in design to MODULE_PARAM macro wherein
we setup a .iommu_table section in which we populate it with the values
that match a struct iommu_table_entry. During bootup we will sort
through the array so that the IOMMUs that MUST run before us are first
elements in the array. And then we just iterate through them calling the
detection routine and if appropiate, the init routines.

With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
feature from the hypervisor.
Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
still work fine on VMware's platform.
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.
For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this,

In x86, access and dirty bits are set automatically by CPU when CPU accesses
memory. When we go into the code path of below flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault(),
we already set dirty bit for pte and don't need flush tlb. This might mean
tlb entry in some CPUs hasn't dirty bit set, but this doesn't matter. When
the CPUs do page write, they will automatically check the bit and no software
involved.
On the other hand, flush tlb in below position is harmful. Test creates CPU
number of threads, each thread writes to a same but random address in same vma
range and we measure the total time. Under a 4 socket system, original time is
1.96s, while with the patch, the time is 0.8s. Under a 2 socket system, there is
20% time cut too. perf shows a lot of time are taking to send ipi/handle ipi for
tlb flush.

TSC's get reset after suspend/resume (even on cpu's with invariant TSC
which runs at a constant rate across ACPI P-, C- and T-states). And in
some systems BIOS seem to reinit TSC to arbitrary large value (still
sync'd across cpu's) during resume.
This leads to a scenario of scheduler rq->clock (sched_clock_cpu()) less
than rq->age_stamp (introduced in 2.6.32). This leads to a big value
returned by scale_rt_power() and the resulting big group power set by the
update_group_power() is causing improper load balancing between busy and
idle cpu's after suspend/resume.
This resulted in multi-threaded workloads (like kernel-compilation) go
slower after suspend/resume cycle on core i5 laptops.
Fix this by recomputing cyc2ns_offset's during resume, so that
sched_clock() continues from the point where it was left off during
suspend.

This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the
CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by
AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's
the scenario:
1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page
table for booting a secondary CPU.
2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical
memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M)
mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum
383 to occur.
3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may
use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is
called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using
swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined.
4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result
in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established
speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large.
5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this
TLB entry remains because it is global.
6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the
above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry
covers a large global page not accessible to userspace.
7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets
established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time
where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable
machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the
machine.
There are two ways to fix this issue:
1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the
old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard
to understand and with performance implications
2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit
does.
This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir
which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page
table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the
bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB
flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases.
-v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so
that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the
trampoline page table.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:
arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.
Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

Mark arguments to certain system calls as being const where they should be but
aren't. The list includes:
(*) The filename arguments of various stat syscalls, execve(), various utimes
syscalls and some mount syscalls.
(*) The filename arguments of some syscall helpers relating to the above.
(*) The buffer argument of various write syscalls.
