Update APM to register its local idle routine with cpuidle.
This allows us to stop exporting pm_idle to modules on x86.
The Kconfig sub-option, APM_CPU_IDLE, now depends on on CPU_IDLE.
Compile-tested only.

On AMD family 15h processors, there are 4 new performance
counters (in addition to 6 core performance counters) that can
be used for counting northbridge events (i.e. DRAM accesses).
Their bit fields are almost identical to the core performance
counters. However, unlike the core performance counters, these
MSRs are shared between multiple cores (that share the same
northbridge).
We will reuse the same code path as existing family 10h
northbridge event constraints handler logic to enforce
this sharing.

Move the reservation of low memory, except for the 4K which actually
does belong to the BIOS, later in the initialization; in particular,
after we have already reserved the trampoline.
The current code locates the trampoline as high as possible, so by
deferring the allocation we will still be able to reserve as much
memory as is possible. This allows us to run with reservelow=640k
without getting a crash on system startup.

Commit cb57a2b4cff7edf2a4e32c0163200e9434807e0a ("x86-32: Export
kernel_stack_pointer() for modules") added an include of the
module.h header in conjunction with adding an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
of kernel_stack_pointer.
But module.h should be avoided for simple exports, since it in turn
includes the world. Swap the module.h for export.h instead.

Starting with win8, vmbus interrupts can be delivered on any VCPU in the guest
and furthermore can be concurrently active on multiple VCPUs. Support this

Xen emulates Hyper-V to host enlightened Windows. Looks like this
emulation may be turned on by default even for Linux guests. Check and
fail Hyper-V detection if we are on Xen.
[ hpa: the problem here is that Xen doesn't emulate Hyper-V well
enough, and if the Xen support isn't compiled in, we end up stubling
over the Hyper-V emulation and try to activate it -- and it fails. ]

Enable hyperv_clocksource only if its advertised as a feature.
XenServer 6 returns the signature which is checked in
ms_hyperv_platform(), but it does not offer all features. Currently the
clocksource is enabled unconditionally in ms_hyperv_init_platform(), and
the result is a hanging guest.
Hyper-V spec Bit 1 indicates the availability of Partition Reference
Counter. Register the clocksource only if this bit is set.
The guest in question prints this in dmesg:
[ 0.000000] Hypervisor detected: Microsoft HyperV
[ 0.000000] HyperV: features 0x70, hints 0x0
This bug can be reproduced easily be setting 'viridian=1' in a HVM domU
.cfg file. A workaround without this patch is to boot the HVM guest with
'clocksource=jiffies'.

This patch adds support for the SGI UV3 hub to the common x2apic
functions. The primary changes are to account for the similarities
between UV2 and UV3 which are encompassed within the "UVX" nomenclature.
One significant difference within UV3 is the handling of the MMIOH
regions which are redirected to the target blade (with the device) in
a different manner. It also now has two MMIOH regions for both small and
large BARs. This aids in limiting the amount of physical address space
removed from real memory that's used for I/O in the max config of 64TB.

When a HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server boots a regular kernel,
there will be intermittent lost interrupts which could
result in a hang or (in extreme cases) data loss.
The reason is that this system only supports x2apic physical
mode, while the kernel boots with a logical-cluster default
setting.
This bug can be worked around by specifying the "x2apic_phys" or
"nox2apic" boot option, but we want to handle this system
without requiring manual workarounds.
The BIOS sets ACPI_FADT_APIC_PHYSICAL in FADT table.
As all apicids are smaller than 255, BIOS need to pass the
control to the OS with xapic mode, according to x2apic-spec,
chapter 2.9.
Current code handle x2apic when BIOS pass with xapic mode
enabled:
When user specifies x2apic_phys, or FADT indicates PHYSICAL:
1. During madt oem check, apic driver is set with xapic logical
or xapic phys driver at first.
2. enable_IR_x2apic() will enable x2apic_mode.
3. if user specifies x2apic_phys on the boot line, x2apic_phys_probe()
will install the correct x2apic phys driver and use x2apic phys mode.
Otherwise it will skip the driver will let x2apic_cluster_probe to
take over to install x2apic cluster driver (wrong one) even though FADT
indicates PHYSICAL, because x2apic_phys_probe does not check
FADT PHYSICAL.
Add checking x2apic_fadt_phys in x2apic_phys_probe() to fix the
problem.

Remove 32-bit x86 a cmdline param "no-hlt",
and the cpuinfo_x86.hlt_works_ok that it sets.
If a user wants to avoid HLT, then "idle=poll"
is much more useful, as it avoids invocation of HLT
in idle, while "no-hlt" failed to do so.
Indeed, hlt_works_ok was consulted in only 3 places.
First, in /proc/cpuinfo where "hlt_bug yes"
would be printed if and only if the user booted
the system with "no-hlt" -- as there was no other code
to set that flag.
Second, check_hlt() would not invoke halt() if "no-hlt"
were on the cmdline.
Third, it was consulted in stop_this_cpu(), which is invoked
by native_machine_halt()/reboot_interrupt()/smp_stop_nmi_callback() --
all cases where the machine is being shutdown/reset.
The flag was not consulted in the more frequently invoked
play_dead()/hlt_play_dead() used in processor offline and suspend.
Since Linux-3.0 there has been a run-time notice upon "no-hlt" invocations
indicating that it would be removed in 2012.

mwait_idle() is a C1-only idle loop intended to be more efficient
than HLT, starting on Pentium-4 HT-enabled processors.
But mwait_idle() has been replaced by the more general
mwait_idle_with_hints(), which handles both C1 and deeper C-states.
ACPI processor_idle and intel_idle use only mwait_idle_with_hints(),
and no longer use mwait_idle().
Here we simplify the x86 native idle code by removing mwait_idle(),
and the "idle=mwait" bootparam used to invoke it.
Since Linux 3.0 there has been a boot-time warning when "idle=mwait"
was invoked saying it would be removed in 2012. This removal
was also noted in the (now removed:-) feature-removal-schedule.txt.
After this change, kernels configured with
(CONFIG_ACPI=n && CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware
that supports MWAIT will simply use HLT. If MWAIT is desired
on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above
can be enabled.

Implement __get_user_8() for x86-32. It will return the
64-bit result in edx:eax register pair, and ecx is used
to pass in the address and return the error value.
For consistency, change the register assignment for all
other __get_user_x() variants, so that address is passed in
ecx/rcx, the error value is returned in ecx/rcx, and eax/rax
contains the actual value.
[ hpa: I modified the patch so that it does NOT change the calling
conventions for the existing callsites, this also means that the code
is completely unchanged for 64 bits.
Instead, continue to use eax for address input/error output and use
the ecx:edx register pair for the output. ]
This is a partial refresh of a patch [1] by Jamie Lokier from
2004. Only the minimal changes to implement 64bit get_user()
were picked from the original patch.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks into sched/core
Pull full-dynticks (user-space execution is undisturbed and
receives no timer IRQs) preparation changes that convert the
cputime accounting code to be full-dynticks ready,
from Frederic Weisbecker:
"This implements the cputime accounting on full dynticks CPUs.
Typical cputime stats infrastructure relies on the timer tick and
its periodic polling on the CPU to account the amount of time
spent by the CPUs and the tasks per high level domains such as
userspace, kernelspace, guest, ...
Now we are preparing to implement full dynticks capability on
Linux for Real Time and HPC users who want full CPU isolation.
This feature requires a cputime accounting that doesn't depend
on the timer tick.
To implement it, this new cputime infrastructure plugs into
kernel/user/guest boundaries to take snapshots of cputime and
flush these to the stats when needed. This performs pretty
much like CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING except that context location
and cputime snaphots are synchronized between write and read
side such that the latter can safely retrieve the pending tickless
cputime of a task and add it to its latest cputime snapshot to
return the correct result to the user."

It happens because in randconfigs where CONFIG_SYSFS is not set,
the whole sysfs-interface to L3 cache index disabling is
remaining unused and gcc correctly warns about it. Make it

This updates ucode on BSP in 64-bit mode. Paging and virtual address are
working now.

This updates ucode in 32-bit kernel on BSP and AP. At this point, there is no
paging and no virtual address yet.

Implementation of early update ucode on Intel's CPU.
load_ucode_intel_bsp() scans ucode in initrd image file which is a cpio format
ucode followed by ordinary initrd image file. The binary ucode file is stored
in kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin in the cpio data. All ucode
patches with the same model as BSP are saved in memory. A matching ucode patch
is updated on BSP.
load_ucode_intel_ap() reads saved ucoded patches and updates ucode on AP.

Define interfaces microcode_sanity_check() and get_matching_microcode(). They
are called both in early boot time and in microcode Intel driver.

Define interfaces load_ucode_bsp() and load_ucode_ap() to load ucode on BSP and
AP in early boot time. These are generic interfaces. Internally they call
vendor specific implementations.

In 64 bit, load ucode on AP in cpu_init().
In 32 bit, show ucode loading info on AP in cpu_init(). Microcode has been
loaded earlier before paging. Now it is safe to show the loading microcode
info on this AP.
