While examining vmlinux namelist on i386 (nm -v vmlinux) I noticed :
c01021d0 t es7000_rename_gsi
c010221a T es7000_start_cpu
<Big Hole>
c0103000 T thread_saved_pc
and
c0113218 T acpi_restore_state_mem
c0113219 T acpi_save_state_mem
<Big Hole>
c0114000 t wakeup_code
This is because arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S forces a .text alignment
of 4096 bytes. (I have no idea if it is really needed, since
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_64.S uses a 16 bytes alignment *only*)
So arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o also has this alignment
arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o: file format elf32-i386
Sections:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
0 .text 00018c94 00000000 00000000 00001000 2**12
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, RELOC, READONLY, CODE
But as arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.o is not the first object linked
into arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o, linker had to build several holes to meet
alignement requirements, because of .o nestings in the kbuild process.
This can be solved by using a special section, .text.page_aligned, so that
no holes are needed.

(x86: move X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC into early cpu feature detection)
are supposed to fix the detection of contant TSC for AMD CPUs.
Unfortunately on x86_64 it does still not work with current x86/mm.
For a Phenom I still get:
...
TSC calibrated against PM_TIMER
Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized
time.c: Detected 2288.366 MHz processor.
...
We have to set c->x86_power in early_identify_cpu to properly detect
the CONSTANT_TSC bit in early_init_amd.
Attached patch fixes this issue. Following the relevant boot
messages when the fix is used:
...
TSC calibrated against PM_TIMER

...

...

Patch is against x86/mm (v2.6.24-rc8-672-ga9f7faa).
Please apply.

Trust the ACPI code to disable TSC instead when C3 is used.
AMD Fam10h does not disable TSC in any C states so the
check was incorrect there anyways after the change
to handle this like Intel on AMD too.
This allows to use the TSC when C3 is disabled in software
(acpi.max_c_state=2), but the BIOS supports it anyways.
Match i386 behaviour.

After a lot of discussions with AMD it turns out that TSC
on Fam10h CPUs is synchronized when the CONSTANT_TSC cpuid bit is set.
Or rather that if there are ever systems where that is not
true it would be their BIOS' task to disable the bit.
So finally use TSC gettimeofday on Fam10h by default.
Or rather it is always used now on CPUs where the AMD
specific CONSTANT_TSC bit is set.
This gives a nice speed bost for gettimeofday() on these systems
which tends to be by far the most common v/syscall.
On a Fam10h system here TSC gtod uses about 20% of the CPU time of
acpi_pm based gtod(). This was measured on 32bit, on 64bit
it is even better because TSC gtod() can use a vsyscall
and stay in ring 3, which acpi_pm doesn't.
The Intel check simply checks for CONSTANT_TSC too without hardcoding
Intel vendor. This is equivalent on 64bit because all 64bit capable Intel
CPUs will have CONSTANT_TSC set.
On Intel there is no CPU supplied CONSTANT_TSC bit currently,
but we synthesize one based on hardcoded knowledge which steppings
have p-state invariant TSC.
So the new logic is now: On CPUs which have the AMD specific
CONSTANT_TSC bit set or on Intel CPUs which are new enough
to be known to have p-state invariant TSC always use
TSC based gettimeofday()

When developing the Kprobes arch code for ARM, I ran across some code
found in x86 and s390 Kprobes arch code which I didn't consider as
good as it could be.
Once I figured out what the code was doing, I changed the code
for ARM Kprobes to work the way I felt was more appropriate.
I've tested the code this way in ARM for about a year and would
like to push the same change to the other affected architectures.
The code in question is in kprobe_exceptions_notify() which
does:
====
/* kprobe_running() needs smp_processor_id() */
preempt_disable();
if (kprobe_running() &&
kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr))
ret = NOTIFY_STOP;
preempt_enable();
====
For the moment, ignore the code having the preempt_disable()/
preempt_enable() pair in it.
The problem is that kprobe_running() needs to call smp_processor_id()
which will assert if preemption is enabled. That sanity check by
smp_processor_id() makes perfect sense since calling it with preemption
enabled would return an unreliable result.
But the function kprobe_exceptions_notify() can be called from a
context where preemption could be enabled. If that happens, the
assertion in smp_processor_id() happens and we're dead. So what
the original author did (speculation on my part!) is put in the
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pair to simply defeat the check.
Once I figured out what was going on, I considered this an
inappropriate approach. If kprobe_exceptions_notify() is called
from a preemptible context, we can't be in a kprobe processing
context at that time anyways since kprobes requires preemption to
already be disabled, so just check for preemption enabled, and if
so, blow out before ever calling kprobe_running(). I wrote the ARM
kprobe code like this:
====
/* To be potentially processing a kprobe fault and to
* trust the result from kprobe_running(), we have
* be non-preemptible. */
if (!preemptible() && kprobe_running() &&
kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr))
ret = NOTIFY_STOP;
====
The above code has been working fine for ARM Kprobes for a year.
So I changed the x86 code (2.6.24-rc6) to be the same way and ran
the Systemtap tests on that kernel. As on ARM, Systemtap on x86
comes up with the same test results either way, so it's a neutral
external functional change (as expected).
This issue has been discussed previously on linux-arm-kernel and the
Systemtap mailing lists. Pointers to the by base for the two
discussions:

Aviod TLB flush IPIs during C3 states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering C3.
The performance impact of TLB flush on C3 should not be significant with
respect to C3 wakeup latency. Also, CPUs tend to flush TLB in hardware while in
C3 anyways.
On a 8 logical CPU system, running make -j2, the number of tlbflush IPIs goes
down from 40 per second to ~ 0. Total number of interrupts during the run
of this workload was ~1200 per second, which makes it ~3% savings in wakeups.
There was no measurable performance or power impact however.

32-bit to using the i387_64.h header and 64-bit to using the
i387.c that was previously i387_32.c, but that's what took the

Recently a kdump bug was discovered in which a system would hang inside
calibrate_delay during the booting of the kdump kernel. This was caused
by the fact that the jiffies counter was not being incremented during
timer calibration. The root cause of this problem was found to be a
bios misconfiguration of the hypertransport bus. On system affected by
this hang, the bios had assigned APIC ids which used extended apic bits
(more than the nominal 4 bit ids's), but failed to configure bit 17 of
the hypertransport transaction config register, which indicated that the
mask for the destination field of interrupt packets accross the ht bus
(see section 3.3.9 of
http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/26094.PDF).
If a crash occurs on a cpu with an APIC id that extends beyond 4 bits,
it will not recieve interrupts during the kdump kernel boot, and this
hang will be the result. The fix is to add this patch, whcih add an
early pci quirk check, to forcibly enable this bit in the httcfg
register. This enables all cpus on a system to receive interrupts, and
allows kdump kernel bootup to procede normally.

implemented in efi_64.c. Some x86_64 specifics are worth noting here. On
x86_64, parameters passed to EFI firmware services need to follow the EFI
calling convention. For this purpose, a set of functions named efi_call<x>
(<x> is the number of parameters) are implemented. EFI function calls are
wrapped before calling the firmware service. The duplicated code between
