b93463aa59 KVM: Accelerated apic support
This adds a mechanism for exposing the virtual apic tpr to the guest, and a
protocol for letting the guest update the tpr without causing a vmexit if
conditions allow (e.g. there is no interrupt pending with a higher priority
than the new tpr).

b209749f52 KVM: local APIC TPR access reporting facility
Add a facility to report on accesses to the local apic tpr even if the
local apic is emulated in the kernel.  This is basically a hack that
allows userspace to patch Windows which tends to bang on the tpr a lot.

f212ec4b7b x86: early boot debugging via FireWire (ohci1394_dma=early)
This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.

If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.

With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.

In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.

An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.

A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

It also has links to all the tools which are available to make use of it
another copy of it is online at:

6194ba6ff6 x86: don't special-case pmd allocations as much
In x86 PAE mode, stop treating pmds as a special case.  Previously
they were always allocated and freed with the pgd.  The modifies the
code to be the same as 64-bit mode, where they are allocated on
demand.

This is a step on the way to unifying 32/64-bit pagetable allocation
as much as possible.

There is a complicating wart, however.  When you install a new
reference to a pmd in the pgd, the processor isn't guaranteed to see
it unless you reload cr3.  Since reloading cr3 also has the
side-effect of flushing the tlb, this is an expense that we want to
avoid whereever possible.

This patch simply avoids reloading cr3 unless the update is to the
current pagetable.  Later patches will optimise this further.

5b727a3b01 x86: ignore spurious faults
When changing a kernel page from RO->RW, it's OK to leave stale TLB
entries around, since doing a global flush is expensive and they pose
no security problem.  They can, however, generate a spurious fault,
which we should catch and simply return from (which will have the
side-effect of reloading the TLB to the current PTE).

This can occur when running under Xen, because it frequently changes
kernel pages from RW->RO->RW to implement Xen's pagetable semantics.
It could also occur when using CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, since it avoids
doing a global TLB flush after changing page permissions.

- On i386, the EFI memory map mapping take effect cross paging_init,
  so it is not necessary to use efi_map_memmap.

- EFI memory map is unmapped in efi_enter_virtual_mode to avoid

1a4872529e x86: move misplaced rodata check call
It looks like a mismerge put the rodata self-check in the wrong spot; move
it to the right place after marking the .rodata section read only.

3b233e52f7 x86: optimize clflush
clflush is sufficient to be issued on one CPU. The invalidation is
broadcast throughout the coherence domain.

cd8ddf1a28 x86: clflush_page_range needs mfence
clflush is an unordered operation with respect to other memory
traffic, including other CLFLUSH instructions. This needs proper
fencing with mfence.

af1e6844d6 x86: cpa: rename global_flush_tlb() to cpa_flush_all()
The function name global_flush_tlb() suggests something different from
what the function really does. Rename it to cpa_flush_all(), which is an
understandable counterpart to cpa_flush_range().

no global visibility of the old API anymore.

57a6a46aa2 x86: cpa: implement clflush optimization
Use clflush on CPUs which support this.

clflush is only used when the page attribute operation has been
successful. On CPUs which do not support clflush and in the case of
error the old fashioned global_flush_tlb() is called.

edeed30589 x86: add testcases for RODATA and NX protections/attributes
Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd.
I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly
exception table sorting stuff.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option
as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/
once that patch gets merged into mainline.
(I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll
wait with that until init.c is unified)

As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h
for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.
