* intel_idle: delete power_policy modparam, and choose substate functionsLen Brown2010-07-231-43/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea behind power policy was that it would start off as a modparam, and then hook into the new "global" in-kernel power vs energy tunable. But that tunable isn't happening, so delete the hook here. With the policy hook gone, the sub-state choice functions do not do anything useful, so delete them from the critical path. To handle sub-states in the future, we will advertise them with dedicated cpuidle_state entries. That is necessary because some of the sub-states will have substantially different properties than their peer sub-states. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

* intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processorsLen Brown2010-05-286-2/+486
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors and associated Intel Xeon processors. It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier. For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver. Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle". Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early, making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms. intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time. Processors that are hot-added later will be limited to using C1 in idle. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
* ACPI: acpi_idle: touch TS_POLLING only in the non-MWAIT caseLen Brown2010-05-281-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit d306ebc28649b89877a22158fe0076f06cc46f60 (ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry) fixed an important power & performance issue where ACPI c2 and c3 C-states were clearing TS_POLLING even when using MWAIT (ACPI_STATE_FFH). That bug had been causing us to receive redundant scheduling interrups when we had already been woken up by MONITOR/MWAIT. Following up on that... In the MWAIT case, we don't have to subsequently check need_resched(), as that c heck was there for the TS_POLLING-clearing case. Note that not only does the cpuidle calling function already check need_resched() before calling us, the low-level entry into monitor/mwait calls it twice -- guaranteeing that a write to the trigger address can not go un-noticed. Also, in this case, we don't have to set TS_POLLING when we wake, because we never cleared it. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Acked-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venki@google.com>

* sched: clarify commment for TS_POLLINGLen Brown2010-05-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TS_POLLING set tells the scheduler an idle_task will poll need_resched() to look for work. TS_POLLING clear tells resched_task() and wake_up_idle_cpu() that the remote CPU's idle_task is now sleeping in idle, and thus requires a reschedule interrupt notice work. Update the description of TS_POLLING to reflect how it works.

* ACPI: allow a native cpuidle driver to displace ACPILen Brown2010-05-271-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ACPI driver would fail probe when it found that another driver had previously registered with cpuidle. But this is a natural situation, as a native hardware cpuidle driver should be able to bind instead of ACPI, and the ACPI processor driver should be able to handle yielding control of C-states while still handling P-states and T-states. Add a KERN_DEBUG line showing when acpi_idle does successfully register. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

| * | MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1Shane McDonald2010-05-152-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases, this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware that the code is emulating. This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words: I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't necessarily writable.

To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

APIC ids must therefore be mapped to the lowest node ids to maintain generic kernel use of functions such as cpu_to_node() that determine device affinity. For example, if a device has proximity to physical node 1, for instance, and a cpu happens to be mapped to a higher emulated node id 8, the proximity may not be correctly determined by comparison in generic code even though the cpu may be truly local and allocated on physical node 1. When this happens, the true topology of the machine isn't accurately represented in the emulated environment; although this isn't critical to the system's uptime, any generic code that is NUMA aware benefits from the physical topology being accurately represented. This can affect any system that maps multiple APIC ids to a single node and is booted with numa=fake=N where N is greater than the number of physical nodes.
