Add support for AMD Family 15h [and above] northbridge
performance counters. MSRs 0xc0010240 ~ 0xc0010247 are shared
across all cores that share a common northbridge.
Add support for AMD Family 16h L2 performance counters. MSRs
0xc0010230 ~ 0xc0010237 are shared across all cores that share a
common L2 cache.
We do not enable counter overflow interrupts. Sampling mode and
per-thread events are not supported.

The uncore subsystem in Ivy Bridge-EP is similar to Sandy
Bridge-EP. There are some differences in config register
encoding and pci device IDs. The Ivy Bridge-EP uncore also
supports a few new events.

Pull kdump fixes from Peter Anvin:
"The kexec/kdump people have found several problems with the support
for loading over 4 GiB that was introduced in this merge cycle. This
is partly due to a number of design problems inherent in the way the
various pieces of kdump fit together (it is pretty horrifically manual
in many places.)
After a *lot* of iterations this is the patchset that was agreed upon,
but of course it is now very late in the cycle. However, because it
changes both the syntax and semantics of the crashkernel option, it
would be desirable to avoid a stable release with the broken
interfaces."
I'm not happy with the timing, since originally the plan was to release
the final 3.9 tomorrow. But apparently I'm doing an -rc8 instead...

For each CPU vendor that implements CPU microcode patching, there will
be a minimum family for which this is implemented. Verify this
minimum level of support.
This can be done in the dispatch function or early in the application
functions. Doing the latter turned out to be somewhat awkward because
of the ineviable split between the BSP and the AP paths, and rather
than pushing deep into the application functions, do this in
the dispatch function.

A few years back intel published a spec update:
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/specification-update/5520-and-5500-chipset-ioh-specification-update.pdf
For the 5520 and 5500 chipsets which contained an errata (specificially errata
53), which noted that these chipsets can't properly do interrupt remapping, and
as a result the recommend that interrupt remapping be disabled in bios. While
many vendors have a bios update to do exactly that, not all do, and of course
not all users update their bios to a level that corrects the problem. As a
result, occasionally interrupts can arrive at a cpu even after affinity for that
interrupt has be moved, leading to lost or spurrious interrupts (usually
characterized by the message:
kernel: do_IRQ: 7.71 No irq handler for vector (irq -1)
There have been several incidents recently of people seeing this error, and
investigation has shown that they have system for which their BIOS level is such
that this feature was not properly turned off. As such, it would be good to
give them a reminder that their systems are vulnurable to this problem. For
details of those that reported the problem, please see:

Chao said that kdump does does work well on his system on 3.8
without extra parameter, even iommu does not work with kdump.
And now have to append crashkernel_low=Y in first kernel to make
kdump work.
We have now modified crashkernel=X to allocate memory beyong 4G (if
available) and do not allocate low range for crashkernel if the user
does not specify that with crashkernel_low=Y. This causes regression
if iommu is not enabled. Without iommu, swiotlb needs to be setup in
first 4G and there is no low memory available to second kernel.
Set crashkernel_low automatically if the user does not specify that.
For system that does support IOMMU with kdump properly, user could
specify crashkernel_low=0 to save that 72M low ram.
-v3: add swiotlb_size() according to Konrad.
-v4: add comments what 8M is for according to hpa.
also update more crashkernel_low= in kernel-parameters.txt
-v5: update changelog according to Vivek.

Posted Interrupt feature requires a special IPI to deliver posted interrupt
to guest. And it should has a high priority so the interrupt will not be
blocked by others.
Normally, the posted interrupt will be consumed by vcpu if target vcpu is
running and transparent to OS. But in some cases, the interrupt will arrive
when target vcpu is scheduled out. And host will see it. So we need to
register a dump handler to handle it.

The valid mask for both offcore_response_0 and
offcore_response_1 was wrong for SNB/SNB-EP,
IVB/IVB-EP. It was possible to write to
reserved bit and cause a GP fault crashing
the kernel.
This patch fixes the problem by correctly marking the
reserved bits in the valid mask for all the processors
mentioned above.
A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced
because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts.
This version of the patch is just a rebase to perf/urgent tree
and should apply to older kernels as well.

The idea with those routines is to slowly phase them out and not call
them on anything else besides K8. They even have a check for that which,
when called too early, fails. Let me explain:
It gets the cpuinfo_x86 pointer from the per_cpu array and when this
happens for cpu0, before its boot_cpu_data has been copied back to the
per_cpu array in smp_store_boot_cpu_info(), we get an empty struct and
thus the check fails.
Use boot_cpu_data directly instead.

The two use-cases where we needed to store the GDT were during ACPI S3 suspend
and resume. As the patches:
x86/gdt/i386: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
x86/gdt/64-bit: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.
have demonstrated - there are other mechanism by which the GDT is
saved and reloaded during early resume path.
Hence we do not need to worry about the pvops call-chain for saving the
GDT and can and can eliminate it. The other areas where the store_gdt is
used are never going to be hit when running under the pvops platforms.

During the ACPI S3 suspend, we store the GDT in the wakup_header (see
wakeup_asm.s) field called 'pmode_gdt'.
Which is then used during the resume path and has the same exact
value as what the store/load_gdt do with the saved_context
(which is saved/restored via save/restore_processor_state()).
The flow during resume from ACPI S3 is simpler than the 64-bit
counterpart. We only use the early bootstrap once (wakeup_gdt) and
do various checks in real mode.
After the checks are completed, we load the saved GDT ('pmode_gdt') and
continue on with the resume (by heading to startup_32 in trampoline_32.S) -
which quickly jumps to what was saved in 'pmode_entry'
aka 'wakeup_pmode_return'.
The 'wakeup_pmode_return' restores the GDT (saved_gdt) again (which was
saved in do_suspend_lowlevel initially). After that it ends up calling
the 'ret_point' which calls 'restore_processor_state()'.
We have two opportunities to remove code where we restore the same GDT
twice.
Here is the call chain:
wakeup_start
|- lgdtl wakeup_gdt [the work-around broken BIOSes]
|
| - lgdtl pmode_gdt [the real one]
|
\-- startup_32 (in trampoline_32.S)
\-- wakeup_pmode_return (in wakeup_32.S)
|- lgdtl saved_gdt [the real one]
\-- ret_point
|..
|- call restore_processor_state
The hibernate path is much simpler. During the saving of the hibernation
image we call save_processor_state() and save the contents of that
along with the rest of the kernel in the hibernation image destination.
We save the EIP of 'restore_registers' (restore_jump_address) and
cr3 (restore_cr3).
During hibernate resume, the 'restore_registers' (via the
'restore_jump_address) in hibernate_asm_32.S is invoked which
restores the contents of most registers. Naturally the resume path benefits
from already being in 32-bit mode, so it does not have to reload the GDT.
It only reloads the cr3 (from restore_cr3) and continues on. Note
that the restoration of the restore image page-tables is done prior to
this.
After the 'restore_registers' it returns and we end up called
restore_processor_state() - where we reload the GDT. The reload of
the GDT is not needed as bootup kernel has already loaded the GDT
which is at the same physical location as the the restored kernel.
Note that the hibernation path assumes the GDT is correct during its
'restore_registers'. The assumption in the code is that the restored
image is the same as saved - meaning we are not trying to restore
an different kernel in the virtual address space of a new kernel.

Make a copy of the IDT (as seen via the "sidt" instruction) read-only.
This primarily removes the IDT from being a target for arbitrary memory
write attacks, and has the added benefit of also not leaking the kernel
base offset, if it has been relocated.
We already did this on vendor == Intel and family == 5 because of the
F0 0F bug -- regardless of if a particular CPU had the F0 0F bug or
not. Since the workaround was so cheap, there simply was no reason to
be very specific. This patch extends the readonly alias to all CPUs,
but does not activate the #PF to #UD conversion code needed to deliver
the proper exception in the F0 0F case except on Intel family 5
processors.

Invoking arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() results in calls to
preempt_enable()/disable() which may have performance impact.
Since lazy MMU is not used on bare metal we can patch away
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() so that it is never called in such
environment.
[ hpa: the previous patch "Fix vmalloc_fault oops during lazy MMU
updates" may cause a minor performance regression on
bare metal. This patch resolves that performance regression. It is

So gcc nags about those since forever in randconfig builds.
arch/x86/kernel/quirks.c: In function ‘ati_ixp4x0_rev’:
arch/x86/kernel/quirks.c:361:4: warning: ‘b’ is used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

This function quirk is called on a SB400 chipset only anyway so the
distant possibility of a PCI access failing becomes almost impossible
there. Even if it did fail, then something else more serious is the
problem.
So zero-out the variables so that gcc shuts up but do a coarse check
on the PCI accesses at the end and signal whether any of them had an
error. They shouldn't but in case they do, we'll at least know and we
can address it.

We have KERNEL_IMAGE_START and __START_KERNEL_map which both contain the
start of the kernel text mapping's virtual address. Remove the prior one
which has been replicated a lot less times around the tree.

However, a look at cmci_rediscover shows that it can be simplified quite
a bit, apart from solving the above issue. It invokes functions that
take spin locks with interrupts disabled, and hence it can run in atomic
context. Also, it is run in the CPU_POST_DEAD phase, so the dying CPU
is already dead and out of the cpu_online_mask. So take these points into
account and simplify the code, and thereby also fix the above issue.

Convert AMD erratum 400 to the bug infrastructure. Then, retract all
exports for modules since they're not needed now and make the AMD
erratum checking machinery local to amd.c. Use forward declarations to
avoid shuffling too much code around needlessly.

This patch adds support for PEBS Precise Store
which is available on Intel Sandy Bridge and
Ivy Bridge processors.
To use Precise store, the proper PEBS event
must be used: mem_trans_retired:precise_stores.
For the perf tool, the generic mem-stores event
exported via sysfs can be used directly.

This patch adds support for memory profiling using the
PEBS Load Latency facility.
Load accesses are sampled by HW and the instruction
address, data address, load latency, data source, tlb,
locked information can be saved in the sampling buffer
if using the PERF_SAMPLE_COST (for latency),
PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR, PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC types.
To enable PEBS Load Latency, users have to use the
model specific event:
- on NHM/WSM: MEM_INST_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD
- on SNB/IVB: MEM_TRANS_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD
To make things easier, this patch also exports a generic
alias via sysfs: mem-loads. It export the right event
encoding based on the host CPU and can be used directly
by the perf tool.
Loosely based on Intel's Lin Ming patch posted on LKML
in July 2011.

This patch adds a flags field to each event constraint.
It can be used to store event specific features which can
then later be used by scheduling code or low-level x86 code.
The flags are propagated into event->hw.flags during the
get_event_constraint() call. They are cleared during the
put_event_constraint() call.
This mechanism is going to be used by the PEBS-LL patches.
It avoids defining yet another table to hold event specific
information.

This patch extends Jiri's changes to make generic
events mapping visible via sysfs. The patch extends
the mechanism to non-generic events by allowing
the mappings to be hardcoded in strings.
This mechanism will be used by the PEBS-LL patch
later on.
