The symbol jiffies is created in the linker script as an alias to
jiffies_64. Unfortunately this is done outside any section, and
apparently GNU ld 2.21 doesn't carry the section with it, so we end up
with an absolute symbol and therefore a broken kernel.
Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the whitelist.
The most disturbing bit with this discovery is that it shows that we
have had multiple linker bugs in this area crossing multiple
generations, and have been silently building bad kernels for some time.

As noted in checkin:
a3e854d95 x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug
ld version 2.22.52.0.[12] can incorrectly promote relative symbols to
absolute, if the output section they appear in is otherwise empty.
Since checkin:
6520fe55 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool
we actually check for this and error out rather than silently creating
a kernel which will malfunction if relocated.
Ingo found a configuration in which __start_builtin_fw triggered the
warning.
Go through the linker script sources and look for more symbols that
could plausibly get bogusly promoted to absolute, and add them to the
whitelist.
In general, if the following error triggers:
Invalid absolute R_386_32 relocation: <symbol>
... then we should verify that <symbol> is really meant to be
relocated, and add it and any related symbols manually to the S_REL
regexp.
Please note that 6520fe55 does not introduce the error, only the check
for the error -- without 6520fe55 this version of ld will simply
produce a corrupt kernel if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set on x86-32.

Pull x86 linker bug workarounds from Peter Anvin.
GNU ld-2.22.52.0.[12] (*) has an unfortunate bug where it incorrectly
turns certain relocation entries absolute. Section-relative symbols
that are part of otherwise empty sections are silently changed them to
absolute. We rely on section-relative symbols staying section-relative,
and actually have several sections in the linker script solely for this
purpose.
See for example
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14052
We could just black-list the buggy linker, but it appears that it got
shipped in at least F17, and possibly other distros too, so it's sadly
not some rare unusual case.
This backports the workaround from the x86/trampoline branch, and as
Peter says: "This is not a minimal fix, not at all, but it is a tested
code base."

(*) That's a manly release numbering system. Stupid, sure. But manly.
When the relocs tool throws an error, let the error message say if it
is an absolute or relative symbol. This should make it a lot more

the reason if additional symbol bugs show up.

GNU ld 2.22.52.0.1 has a bug that it blindly changes symbols from
section-relative to absolute if they are in a section of zero length.
This turns the symbols __init_begin and __init_end into absolute
symbols. Let the relocs program know that those should be treated as
relative symbols.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
produces bad kernels. ]

Pull two percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:
"One adds missing KERN_CONT on split printk()s and the other makes
the percpu allocator avoid using PMD_SIZE as atom_size on x86_32.
Using PMD_SIZE led to vmalloc area exhaustion on certain
configurations (x86_32 android) and the only cost of using PAGE_SIZE
instead is static percpu area not being aligned to large page
mapping."
* 'for-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu:
percpu, x86: don't use PMD_SIZE as embedded atom_size on 32bit
percpu: use KERN_CONT in pcpu_dump_alloc_info()
With the embed percpu first chunk allocator, x86 uses either PAGE_SIZE
or PMD_SIZE for atom_size. PMD_SIZE is used when CPU supports PSE so
that percpu areas are aligned to PMD mappings and possibly allow using
PMD mappings in vmalloc areas in the future. Using larger atom_size
doesn't waste actual memory; however, it does require larger vmalloc
space allocation later on for !first chunks.
With reasonably sized vmalloc area, PMD_SIZE shouldn't be a problem
but x86_32 at this point is anything but reasonable in terms of
address space and using larger atom_size reportedly leads to frequent
percpu allocation failures on certain setups.
As there is no reason to not use PMD_SIZE on x86_64 as vmalloc space
is aplenty and most x86_64 configurations support PSE, fix the issue
by always using PMD_SIZE on x86_64 and PAGE_SIZE on x86_32.
v2: drop cpu_has_pse test and make x86_64 always use PMD_SIZE and
x86_32 PAGE_SIZE as suggested by hpa.

which is due to the fact we are trying to access a PFN that is not

PGD[256] is set to __HYPERVISOR_VIRT_START which was setup (by the
hypervisor) to point to a read-only linear map of the MFN->PFN array.
During our parsing we would get the MFN (a valid one), try to look
it up in the MFN->PFN tree and find it invalid and return ~0 as PFN.
Then pte_mfn_to_pfn would happilly feed that in, attach the flags
and return it back to the caller. 'ptdump_show' bitshifts it and
gets and invalid value that it tries to dereference.
Instead of doing all of that, we detect the ~0 case and just
return !_PAGE_PRESENT.

On x86_64 on AMD machines where the first APIC_ID is not zero, we get:

BIOS bug: APIC version is 0 for CPU 1/0x10, fixing up to 0x10
BIOS bug: APIC version mismatch, boot CPU: 0, CPU 1: version 10
which means that when the ACPI processor driver loads and
tries to parse the _Pxx states it fails to do as, as it
ends up calling acpi_get_cpuid which does this:
for_each_possible_cpu(i) {
if (cpu_physical_id(i) == apic_id)
return i;
}
And the bootup CPU, has not been found so it fails and returns -1
for the first CPU - which then subsequently in the loop that
"acpi_processor_get_info" does results in returning an error, which
means that "acpi_processor_add" failing and per_cpu(processor)
is never set (and is NULL).
That means that when xen-acpi-processor tries to load (much much
later on) and parse the P-states it gets -ENODEV from
acpi_processor_register_performance() (which tries to read
the per_cpu(processor)) and fails to parse the data.

vcpu can block and deliver async PF only after another even wakes it

It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that
can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily
with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes
dynamically.
Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the
access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case
of it being a page-crosser with no next page.
And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have
other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next
page. IOW, this could do the byte order magic too.

In xen_restore_fl_direct(), xen_force_evtchn_callback() was being
called even if no events were pending. This resulted in (depending on
workload) about a 100 times as many xen_version hypercalls as
necessary.
Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump.
This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some
workloads.
There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to
check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is
correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined
mask+pending word is 0x0001 (aka unmasked, pending)." (Ian)

BIOS will switch off the corresponding feature flag on family
15h models 10h-1fh non-desktop CPUs.
The topology extension CPUID leafs are required to detect which
cores belong to the same compute unit. (thread siblings mask is
set accordingly and also correct information about L1i and L2
cache sharing depends on this).
W/o this patch we wouldn't see which cores belong to the same
compute unit and also cache sharing information for L1i and L2
would be incorrect on such systems.

There are exactly four users of __monitor and __mwait:
- cstate.c (which allows acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter to be called
when the cpuidle API drivers are used. However patch
"cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle"
provides a mechanism to disable the cpuidle and use safe_halt.
- smpboot (which allows mwait_play_dead to be called). However
safe_halt is always used so we skip that.
- intel_idle (same deal as above).
- acpi_pad.c. This the one that we do not want to run as we
will hit the below crash.
Why do we want to expose MWAIT_LEAF in the first place?
We want it for the xen-acpi-processor driver - which uploads
C-states to the hypervisor. If MWAIT_LEAF is set, the cstate.c
sets the proper address in the C-states so that the hypervisor
can benefit from using the MWAIT functionality. And that is
the sole reason for using it.
Without this patch, if a module performs mwait or monitor we
get this:

Provide the proper override macros for x32 siginfo_t. The combination
of a special type here and an overall alignment constraint actually
ends up with all the types being properly aligned, but the hack is
needed to keep the substructures inside siginfo_t from adding padding.
Note: use __attribute__((aligned())) since __aligned() is not exported
to user space.

With commit a2ef5c4fd4
"ACPI: Move module parameter gts and bfs to sleep.c" the
wake_sleep_flags is required when calling acpi_enter_sleep_state.
The assembler code in wakeup_*.S did not do that. One solution
is to call it from assembler and stick the wake_sleep_flags on
the stack (for 32-bit) or in %esi (for 64-bit). hpa and rafael
both suggested however to create a wrapper function to call
acpi_enter_sleep_state and call said wrapper function
("acpi_enter_s3") from assembler.
For 32-bit, the acpi_enter_s3 ends up looking as so:
push %ebp
mov %esp,%ebp
sub $0x8,%esp
movzbl 0xc1809314,%eax [wake_sleep_flags]
movl $0x3,(%esp)
mov %eax,0x4(%esp)
call 0xc12d1fa0 <acpi_enter_sleep_state>
leave
ret
And 64-bit:
movzbl 0x9afde1(%rip),%esi [wake_sleep_flags]
push %rbp
mov $0x3,%edi
mov %rsp,%rbp
callq 0xffffffff812e9800 <acpi_enter_sleep_state>
leaveq
retq

"ACPI: Move module parameter gts and bfs to sleep.c" the wake_sleep_flags
is required when calling acpi_enter_sleep_state, which means
that if there are functions outside the sleep.c code they
can't get the wake_sleep_flags values.
This converts the function in to a exported value and converts

This continues the theme started with vm_brk() and vm_munmap():
vm_mmap() does the same thing as do_mmap(), but additionally does the
required VM locking.
This uninlines (and rewrites it to be clearer) do_mmap(), which sadly
duplicates it in mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c. But that way we don't have
to export our internal do_mmap_pgoff() function.
Some day we hopefully don't have to export do_mmap() either, if all
modular users can become the simpler vm_mmap() instead. We're actually
very close to that already, with the notable exception of the (broken)
use in i810, and a couple of stragglers in binfmt_elf.
