These were (intentionally) stripped by "fix CFI macro
invocations to deal with shortcomings in gas" to expose problems
with unexpected splitting of arguments by older gas also on
newer versions, but as it turns out there is at least one distro
(Ubuntu 6.06) where even not having *any* spaces in a macro
argument doesn't reliably prevent splitting into multiple
arguments.

x86 smp_ops now has a new op, stop_other_cpus which takes a parameter
"wait" this allows the caller to specify if it wants to stop until all
the cpus have processed the stop IPI. This is required specifically
for the kexec case where we should wait for all the cpus to be stopped
before starting the new kernel. We now wait for the cpus to stop in
all cases except for panic/kdump where we expect things to be broken
and we are doing our best to make things work anyway.
This patch fixes a legitimate regression, which was introduced during
2.6.30, by commit id 4ef702c10b5df18ab04921fc252c26421d4d6c75.

Currently flush tlb vector allocation is based on below equation:
sender = smp_processor_id() % 8
This isn't optimal, CPUs from different node can have the same vector, this
causes a lot of lock contention. Instead, we can assign the same vectors to
CPUs from the same node, while different node has different vectors. This has
below advantages:
a. if there is lock contention, the lock contention is between CPUs from one
node. This should be much cheaper than the contention between nodes.
b. completely avoid lock contention between nodes. This especially benefits
kswapd, which is the biggest user of tlb flush, since kswapd sets its affinity
to specific node.
In my test, this could reduce > 20% CPU overhead in extreme case.The test
machine has 4 nodes and each node has 16 CPUs. I then bind each node's kswapd
to the first CPU of the node. I run a workload with 4 sequential mmap file
read thread. The files are empty sparse file. This workload will trigger a
lot of page reclaim and tlbflush. The kswapd bind is to easy trigger the
extreme tlb flush lock contention because otherwise kswapd keeps migrating
between CPUs of a node and I can't get stable result. Sure in real workload,
we can't always see so big tlb flush lock contention, but it's possible.

This patch adds an initial page table with low mappings used exclusively
for booting APs/resuming after ACPI suspend/machine restart. After this,
there's no need to add low mappings to swapper_pg_dir and zap them later
or create own swsusp PGD page solely for ACPI sleep needs - we have
initial_page_table for that.

We want the BIOS to setup the EILVT APIC registers. The offsets
were hardcoded and BIOS settings were overwritten by the OS.
Now, the subsystems for MCE threshold and IBS determine the LVT
offset from the registers the BIOS has setup. If the BIOS setup
is buggy on a family 10h system, a workaround enables IBS. If
the OS determines an invalid register setup, a "[Firmware Bug]:
" error message is reported.
We need this change also for upcomming cpu families.

This patch implements checks for the availability of LVT entries
(APIC500-530) and reserves it if used. The check becomes
necessary since we want to let the BIOS provide the LVT offsets.
The offsets should be determined by the subsystems using it
like those for MCE threshold or IBS. On K8 only offset 0
(APIC500) and MCE interrupts are supported. Beginning with
family 10h at least 4 offsets are available.
Since offsets must be consistent for all cores, we keep track of
the LVT offsets in software and reserve the offset for the same
vector also to be used on other cores. An offset is freed by
setting the entry to APIC_EILVT_MASKED.
If the BIOS is right, there should be no conflicts. Otherwise a
"[Firmware Bug]: ..." error message is generated. However, if
software does not properly determines the offsets, it is not
necessarily a BIOS bug.

gas prior to (perhaps) 2.16.90 has problems with passing non-
parenthesized expressions containing spaces to macros. Spaces, however,
get inserted by cpp between any macro expanding to a number and a
subsequent + or -. For the +, current x86 gas then removes the space
again (future gas may not do so), but for the - the space gets retained
and is then considered a separator between macro arguments.
Fix the respective definitions for both the - and + cases, so that they
neither contain spaces nor make cpp insert any (the latter by adding
seemingly redundant parentheses).

Take mm->page_table_lock while syncing the vmalloc region. This prevents
a race with the Xen pagetable pin/unpin code, which expects that the
page_table_lock is already held. If this race occurs, then Xen can see
an inconsistent page type (a page can either be read/write or a pagetable
page, and pin/unpin converts it between them), which will cause either
the pin or the set_p[gm]d to fail; either will crash the kernel.
vmalloc_sync_all() should be called rarely, so this extra use of
page_table_lock should not interfere with its normal users.
The mm pointer is stashed in the pgd page's index field, as that won't
be otherwise used for pgds.

kvm reloads the host's fs and gs blindly, however the underlying segment
descriptors may be invalid due to the user modifying the ldt after loading
them.
Fix by using the safe accessors (loadsegment() and load_gs_index()) instead
of home grown unsafe versions.
This is CVE-2010-3698.

This patch adds IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING option on x86 and runtime enables it
when TSC is enabled.
This change just enables fine grained irq time accounting, isn't used yet.
Following patches use it for different purposes.

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.
