Add the xstate regset support which helps extend the kernel ptrace and the
core-dump interfaces to support AVX state etc.
This regset interface is designed to support all the future state that gets
supported using xsave/xrstor infrastructure.
Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state
is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is
in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence
we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or
the state is not saved in the memory layout.
And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset
interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented
in the memory layout.
First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate
mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0).
The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the
core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

Keep chip_data in create_irq_nr and destroy_irq.
When two drivers are setting up MSI-X at the same time via
pci_enable_msix() there is a race. See this dmesg excerpt:
[ 85.170610] ixgbe 0000:02:00.1: irq 97 for MSI/MSI-X

[ 85.170646] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
at 0000000000000088
As you can see igb and ixgbe are both alternating on create_irq_nr()
via pci_enable_msix() in their probe function.
ixgbe: While looping through irq_desc_ptrs[] via create_irq_nr() ixgbe
choses irq_desc_ptrs[102] and exits the loop, drops vector_lock and
calls dynamic_irq_init. Then it sets irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data =
NULL via dynamic_irq_init().
igb: Grabs the vector_lock now and starts looping over irq_desc_ptrs[]
via create_irq_nr(). It gets to irq_desc_ptrs[102] and does this:
cfg_new = irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data;
if (cfg_new->vector != 0)
continue;
This hits the NULL deref.
Another possible race exists via pci_disable_msix() in a driver or in
the number of error paths that call free_msi_irqs():
destroy_irq()
dynamic_irq_cleanup() which sets desc->chip_data = NULL
...race window...
desc->chip_data = cfg;
Remove the save and restore code for cfg in create_irq_nr() and
destroy_irq() and take the desc->lock when checking the irq_cfg.

We need to fall back from logical-flat APIC mode to physical-flat mode
when we have more than 8 CPUs. However, in the presence of CPU
hotplug(with bios listing not enabled but possible cpus as disabled cpus in
MADT), we have to consider the number of possible CPUs rather than
the number of current CPUs; otherwise we may cross the 8-CPU boundary
when CPUs are added later.
32bit apic code can use more cleanups (like the removal of vendor checks in
32bit default_setup_apic_routing()) and more unifications with 64bit code.
Yinghai has some patches in works already. This patch addresses the boot issue
that is reported in the virtualization guest context.

We cannot assume that because hwc->idx == assign[i], we can avoid
reprogramming the counter in hw_perf_enable().
The event may have been scheduled out and another event may have been
programmed into this counter. Thus, we need a more robust way of
verifying if the counter still contains config/data related to an event.
This patch adds a generation number to each counter on each cpu. Using
this mechanism we can verify reliabilty whether the content of a counter
corresponds to an event.

Introducing *_text_reserved functions for checking the text
address range is partially reserved or not. This patch provides
checking routines for x86 smp alternatives and dynamic ftrace.
Since both functions modify fixed pieces of kernel text, they
should reserve and protect those from other dynamic text
modifier, like kprobes.
This will also be extended when introducing other subsystems

effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.
The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.
A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.
The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.
Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.

In the 2.6.33 kernel, the hw_breakpoint API is now used for the
performance event counters. The hw_breakpoint_handler() now
consumes the hw breakpoints that were previously set by kgdb
arch specific code. In order for kgdb to work in conjunction
with this core API change, kgdb must use some of the low level
functions of the hw_breakpoint API to install, uninstall, and
deal with hw breakpoint reservations.
The kgdb core required a change to call kgdb_disable_hw_debug
anytime a slave cpu enters kgdb_wait() in order to keep all the
hw breakpoints in sync as well as to prevent hitting a hw
breakpoint while kgdb is active.
During the architecture specific initialization of kgdb, it will
pre-allocate 4 disabled (struct perf event **) structures. Kgdb
will use these to manage the capabilities for the 4 hw
breakpoint registers, per cpu. Right now the hw_breakpoint API
does not have a way to ask how many breakpoints are available,
on each CPU so it is possible that the install of a breakpoint
might fail when kgdb restores the system to the run state. The
intent of this patch is to first get the basic functionality of
hw breakpoints working and leave it to the person debugging the
kernel to understand what hw breakpoints are in use and what
restrictions have been imposed as a result. Breakpoint
constraints will be dealt with in a future patch.
While atomic, the x86 specific kgdb code will call
arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint() and arch_install_hw_breakpoint()
to manage the cpu specific hw breakpoints.
The net result of these changes allow kgdb to use the same pool
of hw_breakpoints that are used by the perf event API, but
neither knows about future reservations for the available hw
breakpoint slots.

Commit 6aa542a694 added a quirk for the
Intel DG45ID board due to low memory corruption. The Intel DG45FC
shares the same BIOS (and the same bug) as noted in:

Lowest priority delivery of logical flat mode is broken on some systems,
such that even when IO-APIC RTE says deliver the interrupt to a particular CPU,
interrupt subsystem delivers the interrupt to totally different CPU.
For example, this behavior was observed on a P4 based system with SiS chipset
which was reported by Li Zefan. We have been handling this kind of behavior by
making sure that in logical flat mode, we assign the same vector to irq
mappings on all the 8 possible logical cpu's.
But we have been doing this initial assignment (__setup_vector_irq()) a little
late (before which interrupts were already enabled for a short duration).
Move the __setup_vector_irq() before the first irq enable point in the
cpu online path to avoid the issue of not handling some interrupts that
wrongly hit the cpu which is still coming online.

In the recent change of not reserving IRQ0_VECTOR..IRQ15_VECTOR's on all
cpu's, we start with irq 0..15 getting directed to (and handled on) cpu-0.
In the logical flat mode, once the AP's are online (and before irqbalance
comes into picture), kernel intends to handle these IRQ's on any cpu (as the
logical flat mode allows to specify multiple cpu's for the irq destination and
the chipset based routing can deliver to the interrupt to any one of
the specified cpu's). This was broken with our recent change, which was ending
up using only cpu 0 as the destination, even when the kernel was specifying to
use all online cpu's for the logical flat mode case.
Fix this by updating vector allocation domain (cfg->domain) for legacy irqs,
when the IO-APIC handles them.
