ACPI: create CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG_FUNC_TRACE
Split ACPI_DEBUG into function trace enabled and not enabled.
Function trace is most of the ACPI_DEBUG costs, but is
not much of use for kernel ACPI debugging.
Size of kernel image increased on test compile:
+ 48k (Full ACPI_DEBUG)
+ 35k (ACPI_DEBUG with function trace compiled out)
Performance without function trace is also much better.
Also remove ACPI_LV_DEBUG_OBJECT from default debug level as
a lot vendors let Store (value, debug) in their code and this
might confuse users when it pops up in syslog.

x86_64: check remote IRR bit before migrating level triggered irq
On x86_64 kernel, level triggered irq migration gets initiated in the
context of that interrupt(after executing the irq handler) and following
steps are followed to do the irq migration.
1. mask IOAPIC RTE entry; // write to IOAPIC RTE
2. EOI; // processor EOI write
3. reprogram IOAPIC RTE entry // write to IOAPIC RTE with new destination and
// and interrupt vector due to per cpu vector
// allocation.
4. unmask IOAPIC RTE entry; // write to IOAPIC RTE
Because of the per cpu vector allocation in x86_64 kernels, when the irq
migrates to a different cpu, new vector(corresponding to the new cpu) will
get allocated.
An EOI write to local APIC has a side effect of generating an EOI write for
level trigger interrupts (normally this is a broadcast to all IOAPICs).
The EOI broadcast generated as a side effect of EOI write to processor may
be delayed while the other IOAPIC writes (step 3 and 4) can go through.
Normally, the EOI generated by local APIC for level trigger interrupt
contains vector number. The IOAPIC will take this vector number and search
the IOAPIC RTE entries for an entry with matching vector number and clear
the remote IRR bit (indicate EOI). However, if the vector number is
changed (as in step 3) the IOAPIC will not find the RTE entry when the EOI
is received later. This will cause the remote IRR to get stuck causing the
interrupt hang (no more interrupt from this RTE).
Current x86_64 kernel assumes that remote IRR bit is cleared by the time
IOAPIC RTE is reprogrammed. Fix this assumption by checking for remote IRR
bit and if it still set, delay the irq migration to the next interrupt
arrival event(hopefully, next time remote IRR bit will get cleared before
the IOAPIC RTE is reprogrammed).

x86_64: mcelog tolerant level cleanup
Background:
The MCE handler has several paths that it can take, depending on various
conditions of the MCE status and the value of the 'tolerant' knob. The
exact semantics are not well defined and the code is a bit twisty.
Description:
This patch makes the MCE handler's behavior more clear by documenting the
behavior for various 'tolerant' levels. It also fixes or enhances
several small things in the handler. Specifically:
* If RIPV is set it is not safe to restart, so set the 'no way out'
flag rather than the 'kill it' flag.
* Don't panic() on correctable MCEs.
* If the _OVER bit is set *and* the _UC bit is set (meaning possibly
dropped uncorrected errors), set the 'no way out' flag.
* Use EIPV for testing whether an app can be killed (SIGBUS) rather
than RIPV. According to docs, EIPV indicates that the error is
related to the IP, while RIPV simply means the IP is valid to
restart from.
* Don't clear the MCi_STATUS registers until after the panic() path.
This leaves the status bits set after the panic() so clever BIOSes
can find them (and dumb BIOSes can do nothing).
This patch also calls nonseekable_open() in mce_open (as suggested by akpm).
Result:
Tolerant levels behave almost identically to how they always have, but
not it's well defined. There's a slightly higher chance of panic()ing
when multiple errors happen (a good thing, IMHO). If you take an MBE and
panic(), the error status bits are not cleared.
Alternatives:
None.
Testing:
I used software to inject correctable and uncorrectable errors. With
tolerant = 3, the system usually survives. With tolerant = 2, the system
usually panic()s (PCC) but not always. With tolerant = 1, the system
always panic()s. When the system panic()s, the BIOS is able to detect
that the cause of death was an MC4. I was not able to reproduce the
case of a non-PCC error in userspace, with EIPV, with (tolerant < 3).
That will be rare at best.

x86_64: support poll() on /dev/mcelog
Background:
/dev/mcelog is typically polled manually. This is less than optimal for
situations where accurate accounting of MCEs is important. Calling
poll() on /dev/mcelog does not work.
Description:
This patch adds support for poll() to /dev/mcelog. This results in
immediate wakeup of user apps whenever the poller finds MCEs. Because
the exception handler can not take any locks, it can not call the wakeup
itself. Instead, it uses a thread_info flag (TIF_MCE_NOTIFY) which is
caught at the next return from interrupt or exit from idle, calling the
mce_user_notify() routine. This patch also disables the "fake panic"
path of the mce_panic(), because it results in printk()s in the exception
handler and crashy systems.
This patch also does some small cleanup for essentially unused variables,
and moves the user notification into the body of the poller, so it is
only called once per poll, rather than once per CPU.
Result:
Applications can now poll() on /dev/mcelog. When an error is logged
(whether through the poller or through an exception) the applications are
woken up promptly. This should not affect any previous behaviors. If no
MCEs are being logged, there is no overhead.
Alternatives:
I considered simply supporting poll() through the poller and not using
TIF_MCE_NOTIFY at all. However, the time between an uncorrectable error
happening and the user application being notified is *the*most* critical
window for us. Many uncorrectable errors can be logged to the network if
given a chance.
I also considered doing the MCE poll directly from the idle notifier, but
decided that was overkill.
Testing:
I used an error-injecting DIMM to create lots of correctable DRAM errors
and verified that my user app is woken up in sync with the polling interval.
I also used the northbridge to inject uncorrectable ECC errors, and
verified (printk() to the rescue) that the notify routine is called and the
user app does wake up. I built with PREEMPT on and off, and verified
that my machine survives MCEs.

x86_64: O_EXCL on /dev/mcelog
Background:
/dev/mcelog is a clear-on-read interface. It is currently possible for
multiple users to open and read() the device. Users are protected from
each other during any one read, but not across reads.
Description:
This patch adds support for O_EXCL to /dev/mcelog. If a user opens the
device with O_EXCL, no other user may open the device (EBUSY). Likewise,
any user that tries to open the device with O_EXCL while another user has
the device will fail (EBUSY).
Result:
Applications can get exclusive access to /dev/mcelog. Applications that
do not care will be unchanged.
Alternatives:
A simpler choice would be to only allow one open() at all, regardless of
O_EXCL.
Testing:
I wrote an application that opens /dev/mcelog with O_EXCL and observed
that any other app that tried to open /dev/mcelog would fail until the
exclusive app had closed the device.
Caveats:
None.

Insert the unclaimed MMCONFIG resources into the resource tree without the
IORESOURCE_BUSY flag during late initialization. This allows the MMCONFIG
regions to be visible in the iomem resource tree without interfering with
other system resources that were discovered during PCI initialization.

x86_64: fake apicid_to_node mapping for fake numa
When we are in the emulated NUMA case, we need to make sure that all existing
apicid_to_node mappings that point to real node ID's now point to the
equivalent fake node ID's.
If we simply iterate over all apicid_to_node[] members for each node, we risk
remapping an entry if it shares a node ID with a real node. Since apicid's
may not be consecutive, we're forced to create an automatic array of
apicid_to_node mappings and then copy it over once we have finished remapping
fake to real nodes.

x86_64: fake pxm-to-node mapping for fake numa
For NUMA emulation, our SLIT should represent the true NUMA topology of the
system but our proximity domain to node ID mapping needs to reflect the
emulated state.
When NUMA emulation has successfully setup fake nodes on the system, a new
function, acpi_fake_nodes() is called. This function determines the proximity
domain (_PXM) for each true node found on the system. It then finds which
emulated nodes have been allocated on this true node as determined by its
starting address. The node ID to PXM mapping is changed so that each fake
node ID points to the PXM of the true node that it is located on.
If the machine failed to register a SLIT, then we assume there is no special
requirement for emulated node affinity so we use the default LOCAL_DISTANCE,
which is newly exported to this code, as our measurement if the emulated nodes
appear in the same PXM. Otherwise, we use REMOTE_DISTANCE.
PXM_INVAL and NID_INVAL are also exported to the ACPI header file so that we
can compare node_to_pxm() results in generic code (in this case, the SRAT
code).

x86_64: extract helper function from e820_register_active_regions
The logic in e820_find_active_regions() for determining the true active
regions for an e820 entry given a range of PFN's is needed for
e820_hole_size() as well.
e820_hole_size() is called from the NUMA emulation code to determine the
reserved area within an address range on a per-node basis. Its logic should
duplicate that of finding active regions in an e820 entry because these are
the only true ranges we may register anyway.
x86_64: Avoid too many remote cpu references due to /proc/stat
Too many remote cpu references due to /proc/stat.
On x86_64, with newer kernel versions, kstat_irqs is a bit of a problem.
On every call to kstat_irqs, the process brings in per-cpu data from all
online cpus. Doing this for NR_IRQS, which is now 256 + 32 * NR_CPUS
results in (256+32*63) * 63 remote cpu references on a 64 cpu config.
/proc/stat is parsed by common commands like top, who etc, causing lots
of cacheline transfers
This statistic seems useless. Other 'big iron' arches disable this.
