5f64ec64e7 x86, boot: stylistic cleanups for boot/compressed/head_32.S
Reformat arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_32.S to be closer to currently
preferred kernel assembly style, that is:

- opcode and operand separated by tab
- operands separated by ", "
- C-style comments

This also makes it more similar to head_64.S.

283ab1c0bd x86, boot: follow standard Kbuild style for compression suffix
When generating the compression suffix in
arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile, follow standard Kbuild
conventions, that is:

- Use a dash not underscore before y/m/n endings
- Use := whenever possible.

845adf7266 x86: add a Kconfig symbol for when relocations are needed
We only need to build relocations when we are building a 32-bit
relocatable kernel.  Rather than unnecessarily complicating the
Makefiles, make an explicit Kbuild symbol for this.

0b4eb462da x86, boot: align the .bss section in the decompressor
Aligning the .bss section makes it trivial to use large operation
sizes for moving the initialized sections and clearing the .bss.
The alignment chosen (L1 cache) is somewhat arbitrary, but should be
large enough to avoid all known performance traps and small enough to
not cause troubles.

For 64 bit the following functional changes are introduced:

 - .data.page_aligned has moved
 - .data.cacheline_aligned has moved
 - .data.read_mostly has moved
 - ALIGN() moved out of output section for .data.cacheline_aligned
 - ALIGN() moved out of output section for .data.page_aligned

Notice that 32 bit and 64 bit has different location of _edata.
.data_nosave is 32 bit only as 64 bit is special due to PERCPU.

dfc20895d9 x86, vmlinux.lds: unify .text output sections
32 bit x86 had a dedicated .text.head output section,
whereas 64 bit had it all in a single output section.

In the unified version the dedicated .text.head output section
was kept to have full control over the head code.

32 bit:

- Moved definition of _stext to the linker script.
  The definition is located _after_ .text.page_aligned as this
  is what 32 bit did before.

The ALIGN(8) was introduced so we hit the exact same address
(on the tested config) before and after the move.

I assume that it is a bug that _stext did not cover the
.text.page_aligned section - if this is true it can be fixed
in a follow-up patch (and the ugly ALIGN() can be dropped).

51b26ada79 x86: unify arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds
Look at the:

	diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds

output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for
trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a
"pgtable" thing.

So unify them.

There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing
rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS
end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but
other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion.

For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64",
and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't
do that.

Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about
"head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was
actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't
new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the
vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;)

ea34f43a07 acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusion
It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.

My bad.

'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):

 (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
     smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
     and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.

 (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
     call on that CPU.

Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel.  So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

6f66cbc630 x86 microcode: revert some work_on_cpu
Revert part of af5c820a31 ("x86: cpumask:
use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c")

That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g.
microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22
where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2.

We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code,
because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from
/sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.

It seems that the kernel calls these acpi-cpufreq functions at a quite
high frequency.

Valdis Kletnieks also reports that this causes 70-90 forks per second on
his hardware.

WARNING: arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.text+0x449e): Section mismatch in reference
from the function pat_init() to the function .cpuinit.text:pat_disable()
The function pat_init() references
the function __cpuinit pat_disable().
This is often because pat_init lacks a __cpuinit
annotation or the annotation of pat_disable is wrong.

Non CONFIG_X86_PAT version of pat_disable is static inline, so this version
can be static too (and there are no callers outside of this file).

575922248c x86: Fix section mismatches in mpparse
Impact: fix section mismatch

In arch/x86/kernel/mpparse.c, smp_reserve_bootmem() has been called
and also refers to a function which is in .init section. Thus causes
the first warning. And check_irq_src() also requires an __init,
because it refers to an .init section.

9b987aeb4a x86: fix set_fixmap to use phys_addr_t
Impact: fix kprobes crash on 32-bit with RAM above 4G

Use phys_addr_t for receiving a physical address argument
instead of unsigned long. This allows fixmap to handle
pages higher than 4GB on x86-32.

746cddd37d x86, intr-remap: fix eoi for interrupt remapping without x2apic
To simplify level irq migration in the presence of interrupt-remapping,
Suresh used a virtual vector (io-apic pin number) to eliminate io-apic
RTE modification. Level triggered interrupt will appear as an edge to
the local apic cpu but still as level to the IO-APIC. So in addition to
do the local apic EOI, it still needs to do IO-APIC directed EOI to clear
the remote IRR bit in the IO-APIC RTE. Pls refer to Suresh's patch for
more details (commit 0280f7c416).

Now interrupt remapping is decoupled from x2apic, it also needs to do the
directed EOI for apic. Otherwise, apic interrupts won't work correctly.

47788c58e6 tracing/syscalls: use a dedicated file header
Impact: fix build warnings and possibe compat misbehavior on IA64

Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger these ugly build warnings:

CC      arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
                 from include/linux/module.h:14,
                 from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
                 from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,

arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
[...]

sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.

But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher
level headers.

Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.

191216b928 xen: mask XSAVE from cpuid
Xen leaves XSAVE set in cpuid, but doesn't allow cr4.OSXSAVE
to be set.  This confuses the kernel and it ends up crashing on
an xsetbv instruction.

At boot time, try to set cr4.OSXSAVE, and mask XSAVE out of
cpuid it we can't.  This will produce a spurious error from Xen,
but allows us to support XSAVE if/when Xen does.

This also factors out the cpuid mask decisions to boot time.
