use kernel_fpu_begin/end() instead of unconditionally accessing cr0 and saving/restoring just the few used xmm/ymm registers. This has some advantages like: * If the task's FPU state is already active, then kernel_fpu_begin() will just save the user-state and avoiding the read/write of cr0. In general, cr0 accesses are much slower. * Manual save/restore of xmm/ymm registers will affect the 'modified' and the 'init' optimizations brought in the by xsaveopt/xrstor infrastructure. * Foward compatibility with future vector register extensions will be a problem if the xmm/ymm registers are manually saved and restored (corrupting the extended state of those vector registers). With this patch, there was no significant difference in the xor throughput using AVX, measured during boot. Signed-off-by:

kvm's guest fpu save/restore should be wrapped around kernel_fpu_begin/end(). This will avoid for example taking a DNA in kvm_load_guest_fpu() when it tries to load the fpu immediately after doing unlazy_fpu() on the host side. More importantly this will prevent the host process fpu from being corrupted. Signed-off-by:

Few lines below we do drop_fpu() which is more safer. Remove the unnecessary user_fpu_end() in save_xstate_sig(), which allows the drop_fpu() to ignore any pending exceptions from the user-space and drop the current fpu. Signed-off-by:

No need to save the state with unlazy_fpu(), that is about to get overwritten by the state from the signal frame. Instead use drop_fpu() and continue to restore the new state. Also fold the stop_fpu_preload() into drop_fpu(). Signed-off-by:

Currently for x86 and x86_32 binaries, fpstate in the user sigframe is copied to/from the fpstate in the task struct. And in the case of signal delivery for x86_64 binaries, if the fpstate is live in the CPU registers, then the live state is copied directly to the user sigframe. Otherwise fpstate in the task struct is copied to the user sigframe. During restore, fpstate in the user sigframe is restored directly to the live CPU registers. Historically, different code paths led to different bugs. For example, x86_64 code path was not preemption safe till recently. Also there is lot of code duplication for support of new features like xsave etc. Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels. New strategy is as follows: Signal delivery: Both for 32/64-bit frames, align the core math frame area to 64bytes as needed by xsave (this where the main fpu/extended state gets copied to and excludes the legacy compatibility fsave header for the 32-bit [f]xsave frames). If the state is live, copy the register state directly to the user frame. If not live, copy the state in the thread struct to the user frame. And for 32-bit [f]xsave frames, construct the fsave header separately before the actual [f]xsave area. Signal return: As the 32-bit frames with [f]xstate has an additional 'fsave' header, copy everything back from the user sigframe to the fpstate in the task structure and reconstruct the fxstate from the 'fsave' header (Also user passed pointers may not be correctly aligned for any attempt to directly restore any partial state). At the next fpstate usage, everything will be restored to the live CPU registers. For all the 64-bit frames and the 32-bit fsave frame, restore the state from the user sigframe directly to the live CPU registers. 64-bit signals always restored the math frame directly, so we can expect the math frame pointer to be correctly aligned. For 32-bit fsave frames, there are no alignment requirements, so we can restore the state directly. "lat_sig catch" microbenchmark numbers (for x86, x86_64, x86_32 binaries) are with in the noise range with this change. Signed-off-by:

For certain speculative events on Power7, 'perf stat' reports far higher event count than 'perf record' for the same event. As described in following commit, a performance monitor exception is raised even when the the performance events are rolled back. commit 0837e324 Author: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Date: Wed Mar 9 14:38:42 2011 +1100 perf_event_interrupt() records an event only when an overflow occurs. But this check for overflow is a simple 'if (val < 0)'. Because the events are rolled back, this check for overflow fails and the event is not recorded. perf_event_interrupt() later uses pmc_overflow() to detect the overflow and resets the counters and the events are lost completely. To properly detect the overflow of rolled back events, use pmc_overflow() even when recording events. To reproduce: $ cat strcpy.c #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> main() { char buf[256]; alarm(5); while(1) strcpy(buf, "string1"); } $ perf record -e r20014 ./strcpy $ perf report -n > report.1 $ perf stat -e r20014 > report.2 # Compare report.1 and report.2 Reported-by:Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by:

For powerpc BooKE and e200, singlestep is handled on the critical/dbg exception stack. This causes current_thread_info() to fail for kgdb internal, so previously We work around this issue by copying the thread_info from the kernel stack before calling kgdb_handle_exception, and copying it back afterwards. But actually we don't do this properly. We should backup current_thread_info then restore that when exit. Signed-off-by:

Using 'select' in Kconfig is hard, a platform cannot just enable a driver without also making sure that its subsystem is there. Also, there is no actual code dependency between the platform and the gpio leds driver.

The head-v7.S contains a call to the generic cpu_suspend function, which is only available when selected by the i.MX6 code. As pointed out by Shawn Guo, i.MX5 does not actually use any functions defined in head-v7.S. It is also needed only for the i.MX6 power management code and for the SMP code, so we can restrict building this file to situations in which at least one of those two is present. Finally, other platforms with a similar file call it headsmp.S, so we can rename it to the same for consistency.

When we are finished with return PFNs to the hypervisor, then populate it back, and also mark the E820 MMIO and E820 gaps as IDENTITY_FRAMEs, we then call P2M to set areas that can be used for ballooning. We were off by one, and ended up over-writting a P2M entry that most likely was an IDENTITY_FRAME. For example: 1-1 mapping on 40000->40200 1-1 mapping on bc558->bc5ac 1-1 mapping on bc5b4->bc8c5 1-1 mapping on bc8c6->bcb7c 1-1 mapping on bcd00->100000 Released 614 pages of unused memory Set 277889 page(s) to 1-1 mapping Populating 40200-40466 pfn range: 614 pages added => here we set from 40466 up to bc559 P2M tree to be INVALID_P2M_ENTRY. We should have done it up to bc558. The end result is that if anybody is trying to construct a PTE for PFN bc558 they end up with ~PAGE_PRESENT. CC: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by-and-Tested-by:
