2009-11-24[CPUFREQ] Enable ACPI PDC handshake for VIA/Centaur CPUsHarald Welte
In commit 0de51088e6a82bc8413d3ca9e28bbca2788b5b53, we introduced the use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for VENDOR_INTEL. However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq. Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's. The resulting behavior of a current mainline kernel on such systems is: acpi-cpufreq loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes. However, the CPU stays at a single frequency This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val which is the correct value.

2009-10-08x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interruptsArjan van de Ven
Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using iwlagn. It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible. The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that: 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up. I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec range.

Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a non-default callback only on CPU families which support it. While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE code i also noticed a few other things and made the following cleanups/fixes: - Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not good, obviously. - The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h. - Added the more correct fallback printk of: No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type. Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode. On CPUs that dont have a decoder. - Made the surrounding code more readable. Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback - without having to check the CPU versions during the printout itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the decode-print function.

2009-10-01x86: earlyprintk: Fix regression to handle serial,ttySn as 1 argJason Wessel
Commit c953094 ("early_printk: Allow more than one early console") introduced a regression in the parsing of the earlyprintk= kernel arguments. If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument and not as "serial" and then "ttyS". Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS directly without the "serial" argument.

2009-09-30x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()Arjan van de Ven
cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code. cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there, but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking. This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

This reverts commit 22223c9b417be5fd0ab2cf9ad17eb7bd1e19f7b9, as requested by Andi Kleen: "Obviously kernels compiled with AMD support can still run on non AMD systems, so messages like this can never be removed at compile time."
