x86, pat: don't use rb-tree based lookup in reserve_memtype()
... requires previous x86/pat commits already pushed to Linus.
Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Recent enhancement of rb-tree based lookup exposed a bug with the lookup
mechanism in the reserve_memtype() which ensures that there are no conflicting
memtype requests for the memory range.
memtype_rb_search() returns an entry which has a start address <= new start
address. And from here we traverse the linear linked list to check if there
any conflicts with the existing mappings. As the rbtree is based on the
start address of the memory range, it is quite possible that we have several
overlapped mappings whose start address is much less than new requested start
but the end is >= new requested end. This results in conflicting memtype
mappings.
Same bug exists with the old code which uses cached_entry from where
we traverse the linear linked list. But the new rb-tree code exposes this
bug fairly easily.
For now, don't use the memtype_rb_search() and always start the search from
the head of linear linked list in reserve_memtype(). Linear linked list
for most of the systems grow's to few 10's of entries(as we track memory type
of RAM pages using struct page). So we should be ok for now.
We still retain the rbtree and use it to speed up free_memtype() which
doesn't have the same bug(as we know what exactly we are searching for
in free_memtype).
Also use list_for_each_entry_from() in free_memtype() so that we start
the search from rb-tree lookup result.

Currently we are not including randomized stack size when calculating
mmap_base address in arch_pick_mmap_layout for topdown case. This might
cause that mmap_base starts in the stack reserved area because stack is
randomized by 1GB for 64b (8MB for 32b) and the minimum gap is 128MB.
If the stack really grows down to mmap_base then we can get silent mmap
region overwrite by the stack values.
Let's include maximum stack randomization size into MIN_GAP which is
used as the low bound for the gap in mmap.

Fix address passed to cpa_flush_range() when changing page
attributes from WB to UC. The address (*addr) is
modified by __change_page_attr_set_clr(). The result is that
the pages being flushed start at the _end_ of the changed range
instead of the beginning.
This should be considered for 2.6.30-stable and 2.6.31-stable.

Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use
tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()'
and TLB mappings to be setup.
The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo
is one such case. sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the
necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not.
Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger,
but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we
must properly mark it notrace.
While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and
prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI
watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present.
This happens when, for example:
CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to
load the firmware, then waiting for completion.
CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts. CPU 1 is where the NMI
watchdog triggers.
CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU
1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending.
This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds.
The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the
barrage of device interrupts begin. Then we have:
timer interrupt
return for softirq checking
pending, thus enable interrupts
qla2xxx interrupt
return
qla2xxx interrupt
return
... 5+ seconds pass
final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load
return
run timer softirq
return
At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger
the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler.
The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to
run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer
interrupts.
However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer
interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged. But in the above
scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last
all the way back to running the timer softirq.
The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty
low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds). So increase it to 30
seconds for now.

Since parse_early_param() may (e.g. for earlyprintk=dbgp)
involve calls to page table manipulation functions (here
set_fixmap_nocache()), NX hardware support must be determined
before calling that function (so that __supported_pte_mask gets
properly set up).
But the call after parse_early_param() can also not go away, as
that will honor eventual command line specified disabling of
the NX functionality.
( This will then just result in whatever mappings got
established during parse_early_param() having the NX bit set
despite it being disabled on the command line, but I think
that's tolerable).

Add sanity check for remap_pfn_range of RAM regions using

RAM memory regions as they were tracked using a single bit in
page_struct (WB, nonWB). Now we can get the actual type from page struct
(WB, WC, UC_MINUS) and make sure the requester gets that type.

PAT memtype tracking uses a linear link list to keep track of IO
(non-RAM) regions and their memtypes. The code used a last_accessed
pointer as a cache to speedup the lookup. As per discussions with
H. Peter Anvin a while back, having a rbtree here will avoid bad
performances in pathological cases where we may end up with huge
linked list. This may not add any noticable performance speedup
in normal case as the number of entires in PAT memtype list tend
to be ~20-30 range. The patch removes the "cached_entry" logic
as with rbtree we have more generic way of speeding up the lookup.
With this patch, we use rbtree to do the quick lookup. We still use
linked list as the memtype range tracked can be of different sizes
and can overlap in different ways. We also keep track of usage counts
with linked list.
Example:
Multiple ioremaps with different sizes
uncached-minus @ 0xfffff00000-0xfffff04000
uncached-minus @ 0xfffff02000-0xfffff03000
And one userlevel mmap and the thread forks a new process
uncached-minus @ 0xbf453000-0xbf454000
uncached-minus @ 0xbf453000-0xbf454000

ioremap has this hard-coded check for new type and requested type. That
check differs from other PAT users like /dev/mem mmap, remap_pfn_range
in only one condition where requested type is UC_MINUS and new type
is WC. Under that condition, ioremap fails. But other PAT interfaces succeed
with a WC mapping.
Change to make ioremap be in sync with other PAT APIs and use the same
macro as others. Also changes the error print to KERN_ERR instead of

This change ensures that, even for pat_disabled case, we take care of

ioremap() keeps the identity maps in sync and other APIs like pci and

The problem is that on vSMP systems the CPUID derived
initial-APICIDs are overlapping - so we need to fall
back on hard_smp_processor_id() which reads the local
APIC.
Both come from the hardware (influenced by firmware
though) so it's a tough call which one to trust.
Doing the quirk expresses the vSMP property properly
and also does not affect other systems, so we go for
this solution instead of a revert.

When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses. But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.
So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.
In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image. And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space. We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.
The result of this is that:
1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size
2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap
We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.
If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu. So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.
To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set. We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.
On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.

binutils prior to 2.17 can't deal with the currently possible
situation of a new segment following the per-CPU segment, but
that new segment being empty - objcopy misplaces the .bss (and
perhaps also the .brk) sections outside of any segment.
However, the current ordering of sections really just appears
to be the effect of cumulative unrelated changes; re-ordering
things allows to easily guarantee that the segment following
the per-CPU one is non-empty, and at once eliminates the need
for the bogus data.init2 segment.
Once touching this code, also use the various data section
helper macros from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

This line looks suspicious, because if this is true, then the
'flags' parameter of function reserve_bootmem_generic() will be
unused when !CONFIG_NUMA. I don't think this is what we want.

setup_arch() unconditionally sets the preferred console to ttyS.
This breaks the use of 3270 devices as the console. Provide a new
function to set the default preferred console for s390. The preferred
console depends on the conmode parameter that is used to switch
between 3270 and 3215 terminal/console mode.

mtr_aps_delayed_init was declared u32 and made global, but it only
ever takes boolean values and is only ever used in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/main.c. Declare it "static bool" and remove
external references.

SDM Vol 3a section titled "MTRR considerations in MP systems" specifies
the need for synchronizing the logical cpu's while initializing/updating
MTRR.
Currently Linux kernel does the synchronization of all cpu's only when
a single MTRR register is programmed/updated. During an AP online
(during boot/cpu-online/resume) where we initialize all the MTRR/PAT registers,
we don't follow this synchronization algorithm.
This can lead to scenarios where during a dynamic cpu online, that logical cpu
is initializing MTRR/PAT with cache disabled (cr0.cd=1) etc while other logical
HT sibling continue to run (also with cache disabled because of cr0.cd=1
on its sibling).
Starting from Westmere, VMX transitions with cr0.cd=1 don't work properly
(because of some VMX performance optimizations) and the above scenario
(with one logical cpu doing VMX activity and another logical cpu coming online)
can result in system crash.
Fix the MTRR initialization by doing rendezvous of all the cpus. During
boot and resume, we delay the MTRR/PAT init for APs till all the
logical cpu's come online and the rendezvous process at the end of AP's bringup,
will initialize the MTRR/PAT for all AP's.
For dynamic single cpu online, we synchronize all the logical cpus and
do the MTRR/PAT init on the AP that is coming online.
