This very noisy sparse warning appears on almost every file in
the kernel:
CHECK init/main.c
arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:43:55: error: dubious one-bit
signed bitfield arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:44:46: error:

Sparse is right and this patch changes sig_on_uaccess_error and
uaccess_err flags to unsigned type and thus fixes the warning.

atomic64_read() doesn't actually write anything (as far as the C
environment is concerned... the CPU does actually write but that's an
implementation quirk), so it should take a const pointer.
This does NOT mean that it is safe to use atomic64_read() on an object
in readonly storage (it will trap!)

A possible fix is to use a magic label "672" in LOCK_PREFIX asm

Just like the per-CPU ones they had several
problems/shortcomings:
Only the first memory operand was mentioned in the asm()
operands, and the 2x64-bit version didn't have a memory clobber
while the 2x32-bit one did. The former allowed the compiler to
not recognize the need to re-load the data in case it had it
cached in some register, while the latter was overly
destructive.
The types of the local copies of the old and new values were
incorrect (the types of the pointed-to variables should be used
here, to make sure the respective old/new variable types are
compatible).
The __dummy/__junk variables were pointless, given that local
copies of the inputs already existed (and can hence be used for
discarded outputs).
The 32-bit variant of cmpxchg_double_local() referenced
cmpxchg16b_local().
At once also:
- change the return value type to what it really is: 'bool'
- unify 32- and 64-bit variants
- abstract out the common part of the 'normal' and 'local' variants

Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set
unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants.
This is broken in several ways:
- if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC
deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break
- live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline
timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet;
breaking it
- guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail.
Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace.
Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee
will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.
Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

If the x2apic mode is disabled for reasons like interrupt-remapping
not available etc, then we need to skip the logical cpu bringup of
apic-id's >= 255. Otherwise as the platform is in xapic mode, init/startup
IPI's will consider only the low 8-bits and there is a possibility of
re-sending init/startup IPI's to the logical cpu that is already online.
This will avoid potential reboots/unpredictable behavior etc.

Currently "nox2apic" boot parameter was not enabling x2apic mode if the cpu,
kernel are all capable of enabling x2apic mode and the OS handover
happened in xapic mode.
However If the bios enabled x2apic prior to OS handover, using "nox2apic"
boot parameter had no effect.
If the boot cpu's apicid is < 255, enable "nox2apic" boot parameter to
disable the x2apic mode setup by the bios. This will enable the kernel to
fallback to xapic mode and bringup only the cpu's which has apic-id < 255.

On some of the recent Intel SNB platforms, by default bios is pre-enabling
x2apic mode in the cpu with out setting up interrupt-remapping.
This case was resulting in the kernel to panic as the cpu is already in
x2apic mode but the OS was not able to enable interrupt-remapping (which
is a pre-req for using x2apic capability).
On these platforms all the apic-ids are < 255 and the kernel can fallback to
xapic mode if the bios has not enabled interrupt-remapping (which is
mostly the case if the bios has not exported interrupt-remapping tables to the
OS).

Currently we start with the default apic_flat mode and switch to some other
apic model depending on the apic drivers acpi_madt_oem_check() routines and
later followed by the apic drivers probe() routines.
Once we selected non flat mode there was no case where we fall back to
flat mode again.
Upcoming changes allow bios-enabled x2apic mode to be disabled by the OS
if interrupt-remapping etc is not setup properly by the bios.
We now has a case for the apic to fall back to legacy flat mode during
apic driver probe() seqeuence. Add a simple flat_probe() which allows
the apic_flat mode to be the last fallback option.

Several fields in struct cpuinfo_x86 were not defined for the
!SMP case, likely to save space. However, those fields still
have some meaning for UP, and keeping them allows some #ifdef
removal from other files. The additional size of the UP kernel
from this change is not significant enough to worry about
keeping up the distinction:
text data bss dec hex filename
4737168 506459 972040 6215667 5ed7f3 vmlinux.o.before
4737444 506459 972040 6215943 5ed907 vmlinux.o.after

Instead, according to the AMD64 specification, we can make use of the fact that
BSR/BSF doesn't modify its output register if its input is 0. By preloading
the output with -1 and incrementing the result, we achieve the desired result
without the need for a conditional check.
The Intel x86_64 specification, however, says that the result of BSR/BSF in
such a case is undefined. That said, when queried, one of the Intel CPU
architects said that the behaviour on all Intel CPUs is that:
(1) with BSRQ/BSFQ, the 64-bit destination register is written with its
original value if the source is 0, thus, in essence, giving the effect we
want. And,
(2) with BSRL/BSFL, the lower half of the 64-bit destination register is
written with its original value if the source is 0, and the upper half is
cleared, thus giving us the effect we want (we return a 4-byte int).
Further, it was indicated that they (Intel) are unlikely to get away with
changing the behaviour.
It might be possible to optimise the 32-bit versions of these functions, but
there's a lot more variation, and so the effective non-destructive property of
BSRL/BSRF cannot be relied on.
[ hpa: specifically, some 486 chips are known to NOT have this property. ]
I have benchmarked these functions on my Core2 Duo test machine using the
following program:
#include <stdlib.h>

}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{

switch (argc) {
case 1: total = test_old_get_order(); break;
case 2: total = test_get_order_old_fls64(); break;
default: total = test_get_order(); break;
}
prevent_optimise_out = total;
return 0;
}
This allows me to test the use of the old fls64() implementation and the new
fls64() implementation and also to contrast these to the out-of-line loop-based
implementation of get_order(). The results were:
warthog>time ./get_order
real 1m37.191s
user 1m36.313s
sys 0m0.861s
warthog>time ./get_order x
real 0m16.892s
user 0m16.586s
sys 0m0.287s
warthog>time ./get_order x x
real 0m7.731s
user 0m7.727s
sys 0m0.002s
Using the current upstream fls64() as a basis for an inlined get_order() [the
second result above] is much faster than using the current out-of-line
loop-based get_order() [the first result above].
Using my optimised inline fls64()-based get_order() [the third result above]
is even faster still.

We would include <asm-generic/bitops/fls64.h> even without __KERNEL__,
but that doesn't make sense, as:
1. That file provides fls64(), but the corresponding function fls() is
not exported to user space.
2. The implementation of fls64.h uses kernel-only symbols.
3. fls64.h is not exported to user space.
This appears to have been a bug introduced in checkin:

xen/swiotlb: Use page alignment for early buffer allocation.
xen: only limit memory map to maximum reservation for domain 0.
d312ae878b "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM"
clamped the total amount of RAM to the current maximum reservation. This is
correct for dom0 but is not correct for guest domains. In order to boot a guest
"pre-ballooned" (e.g. with memory=1G but maxmem=2G) in order to allow for
future memory expansion the guest must derive max_pfn from the e820 provided by
the toolstack and not the current maximum reservation (which can reflect only
the current maximum, not the guest lifetime max). The existing algorithm
already behaves this correctly if we do not artificially limit the maximum
number of pages for the guest case.
For a guest booted with maxmem=512, memory=128 this results in:

They had several problems/shortcomings:
Only the first memory operand was mentioned in the 2x32bit asm()
operands, and 2x64-bit version had a memory clobber. The first
allowed the compiler to not recognize the need to re-load the
data in case it had it cached in some register, and the second
was overly destructive.
The memory operand in the 2x32-bit asm() was declared to only be
an output.
The types of the local copies of the old and new values were
incorrect (as in other per-CPU ops, the types of the per-CPU
variables accessed should be used here, to make sure the
respective types are compatible).
The __dummy variable was pointless (and needlessly initialized
in the 2x32-bit case), given that local copies of the inputs
already exist.
The 2x64-bit variant forced the address of the first object into
%rsi, even though this is needed only for the call to the
emulation function. The real cmpxchg16b can operate on an
memory.
At once also change the return value type to what it really is -
'bool'.
