458a3e644c x86: update populate_extra_pte() and add populate_extra_pmd()
Impact: minor change to populate_extra_pte() and addition of pmd flavor

Update populate_extra_pte() to return pointer to the pte_t for the
specified address and add populate_extra_pmd() which only populates
till the pmd and returns pointer to the pmd entry for the address.

For 64bit, pud/pmd/pte fill functions are separated out from
set_pte_vaddr[_pud]() and used for set_pte_vaddr[_pud]() and
populate_extra_{pte|pmd}().

2d0aae4169 bootmem: reorder interface functions and add a missing one
Impact: cleanup and addition of missing interface wrapper

The interface functions in bootmem.h was ordered in not so orderly
manner.  Reorder them such that

* functions allocating the same area group together -
  ie. alloc_bootmem group and alloc_bootmem_low group.

* functions w/o node parameter come before the ones w/ node parameter.

* nopanic variants are immediately below their panicky counterparts.

While at it, add alloc_bootmem_pages_node_nopanic() which was missing.

c132937556 bootmem: clean up arch-specific bootmem wrapping
Impact: cleaner and consistent bootmem wrapping

By setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, archs can define
arch-specific wrappers for bootmem allocation.  However, this is done
a bit strangely in that only the high level convenience macros can be
changed while lower level, but still exported, interface functions
can't be wrapped.  This not only is messy but also leads to strange
situation where alloc_bootmem() does what the arch wants it to do but
the equivalent __alloc_bootmem() call doesn't although they should be
able to be used interchangeably.

This patch updates bootmem such that archs can override / wrap the
backend function - alloc_bootmem_core() instead of the highlevel
interface functions to allow simpler and consistent wrapping.  Also,
HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE is renamed to HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM.

f0aa661790 vmalloc: implement vm_area_register_early()
Impact: allow multiple early vm areas

There are places where kernel VM area needs to be allocated before
vmalloc is initialized.  This is done by allocating static vm_struct,
initializing several fields and linking it to vmlist and later vmalloc
initialization picking up these from vmlist.  This is currently done
manually and if there's more than one such areas, there's no defined
way to arbitrate who gets which address.

This patch implements vm_area_register_early(), which takes vm_area
struct with flags and size initialized, assigns address to it and puts
it on the vmlist.  This way, multiple early vm areas can determine
which addresses they should use.  The only current user - alpha mm
init - is converted to use it.

percpu_alloc() and its friends never saw much action.  It was supposed

populate/depopulate).

Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector

Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary
instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary
value for all threads.  Fixing this also exposed the following bugs.

* cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary()

* stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making
  the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value.

Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about
calling boot_init_stack_canary().

60a5317ff0 x86: implement x86_32 stack protector
Impact: stack protector for x86_32

Implement stack protector for x86_32.  GDT entry 28 is used for it.
It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes.
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs
to the stack canary segment on entry.  As %gs is otherwise unused by
the kernel, the canary can be anywhere.  It's defined as a percpu
variable.

x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as
struct pt_regs.  With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the
whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy
back on return thus losing all changed.  For now, -fno-stack-protector
is added to all files which contain those functions.  We definitely
need something better.

ccbeed3a05 x86: make lazy %gs optional on x86_32
Impact: pt_regs changed, lazy gs handling made optional, add slight
        overhead to SAVE_ALL, simplifies error_code path a bit

On x86_32, %gs hasn't been used by kernel and handled lazily.  pt_regs
doesn't have place for it and gs is saved/loaded only when necessary.
In preparation for stack protector support, this patch makes lazy %gs
handling optional by doing the followings.

* Add CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and place for gs in pt_regs.

* Save and restore %gs along with other registers in entry_32.S unless
  LAZY_GS.  Note that this unfortunately adds "pushl $0" on SAVE_ALL
  even when LAZY_GS.  However, it adds no overhead to common exit path
  and simplifies entry path with error code.

* Define different user_gs accessors depending on LAZY_GS and add
  lazy_save_gs() and lazy_load_gs() which are noop if !LAZY_GS.  The
  lazy_*_gs() ops are used to save, load and clear %gs lazily.

* Define ELF_CORE_COPY_KERNEL_REGS() which always read %gs directly.

xen and lguest changes need to be verified.

d315760ffa x86: fix math_emu register frame access
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
of configuration in the current code.

This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
like normal C functions do.  This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
used.

This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
somewhat working.

Commit 6194ba6ff6 ("x86: don't special-case

and while doing that it dropped a call to  paravirt_release_pd on the
pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path.

As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the
pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a
page table page.

After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and
depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance
and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots).

Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from
the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

monitored address just before monitor and mwait pair [1].

This clflush makes sure that there are no false wakeups from mwait when the
monitored address was recently written to.

44581a28e8 x86: fix abuse of per_cpu_offset
Impact: bug fix

Don't use per_cpu_offset() to determine if it valid to access a
per-cpu variable for a given cpu number.  It is not a valid assumption
on x86-64 anymore. Use cpu_possible() instead.

2add8e235c x86: use linker to offset symbols by __per_cpu_load
Impact: cleanup and bug fix

Use the linker to create symbols for certain per-cpu variables
that are offset by __per_cpu_load.  This allows the removal of
the runtime fixup of the GDT pointer, which fixes a bug with
resume reported by Jiri Slaby.

1fb25cb8b8 radeonfb: Fix resume from D3Cold on some platforms
For historical reason, this driver used its own saving/restoring
of the PCI config space, and used the state of it on resume as
an indication as to whether it needed to re-POST the chip or not.

This methods breaks with the later core changes since the core will
have restored things for us.

This patch fixes it by removing that custom code, using standard
core methods to save/restore state, and testing for the need to
re-POST by comparing the content of a few key PLL registers.

b746bb7762 aty128fb: Properly save PCI state before changing PCI PM level
This fixes aty128fb to properly save the PCI config space -before- it
potentially switches the PM state of the chip. This avoids a
warning with the new PM core and is the right thing to do anyway.

I also replaced the hand-coded switch to D2 with a call to the
genericc pci_set_power_state() and removed the code that switches it
back to D0 since the generic code is doing that for us nowadays.

This fixes atyfb to properly save the PCI config space -before- it
potentially switches the PM state of the chip. This avoids a
warning with the new PM core and is the right thing to do anyway.

I also slightly cleaned up the code that checks whether we are
running on a PowerMac to do a runtime check instead of a compile
check only, and replaced a deprecated number with the proper
symbolic constant.

Finally, I removed the useless switch to D0 from resume since
the core does it for us.
