2008-04-17x86: fix switch_to() clobbersIngo Molnar
Liu Pingfan noticed that switch_to() clobbers more registers than its asm constraints specify. We get away with this due to luck mostly - schedule() by its nature only has 'local' state which gets reloaded automatically. Fix it nevertheless, we could hit this anytime. it turns out that with the extra constraints gcc manages to make schedule() even more compact: text data bss dec hex filename 28626 684 2640 31950 7cce sched.o.before 28613 684 2640 31937 7cc1 sched.o.after Reported-by: Liu Pingfan <kernelfans@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-04-17x86: clean up switch_to()Ingo Molnar
Make the code more readable and more hackable: - use symbolic asm parameters - use readable indentation - add comments that explains the details No code changed: kernel/sched.o: text data bss dec hex filename 28626 684 2640 31950 7cce sched.o.before 28626 684 2640 31950 7cce sched.o.after md5: 2823d406c18b781975cdb2e7cfea0059 sched.o.before.asm 2823d406c18b781975cdb2e7cfea0059 sched.o.after.asm Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-04-17x86: wmb() confusion in system.hPavel Machek
Comment says wmb is a nop, but it is implemented as lock addl below... Should it be compiled to nop if we know we are running on "good" Intel cpu? At least remove confusing comment for now. Signed-off-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-02-04x86: reintroduce volatile keyword in prototype to clflush()H. Peter Anvin
The volatile keyword was removed from the clflush() prototype in commit e34907ae180f4fe6c28bb4516c679c2f81b0c9ed; the comment there states: x86: remove volatile keyword from clflush. the p parameter is an explicit memory reference, and is enough to prevent gcc to being nasty here. The volatile seems completely not needed. This reflects incorrect understanding of the function of the volatile keyword there. The purpose of the volatile keyword is informing gcc that it is safe to pass a volatile pointer to this function. Signed-off-by: H.

2008-02-04x86: use _ASM_EXTABLE macro in include/asm-x86/system.hH. Peter Anvin
Use the _ASM_EXTABLE macro from <asm/asm.h>, instead of open-coding __ex_table entires in include/asm-x86/system.h. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: provide read and write cr8 paravirt hooksGlauber de Oliveira Costa
Since the cr8 manipulation functions ended up staying in the tree, they can't be defined just when PARAVIRT is off: In this patch, those functions are defined for the PARAVIRT case too. [ mingo@elte.hu: fixes ] Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: introduce rdtsc_barrier()Andi Kleen
rdtsc_barrier() is a new barrier primitive that stops RDTSC speculation to avoid races with timer interrupts on other CPUs. It expands either to LFENCE (for Intel CPUs) or MFENCE (for AMD CPUs) which stops RDTSC on all currently known microarchitectures that implement SSE. On CPUs without SSE there is generally no RDTSC speculation. [ mingo@elte.hu: renamed it to rdtsc_barrier() and made it x86-only ] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: also define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCHJan Beulich
The patch introducing this left out x86-64, despite it also having extra entries. [ mingo@elte.hu: re-merged this to after the unification patches. ] Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: unify system.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch finishes the unification of system.h file. i386 needs a constant to be defined, and it is defined inside an ifdef. Other than that, pretty much nothing but includes are left in the arch specific headers, and they are deleted. [ mingo@elte.hu: 64-bit needs the cr8 access inlines. ] Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: move switch_to macro to system.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch moves the switch_to() macro to system.h As those macros are fundamentally different between i386 and x86_64, they are enclosed around an ifdef.

2008-01-30x86: unify smp parts of system.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
The memory barrier parts of system.h are not very different between i386 and x86_64, the main difference being the availability of instructions, which we handle with the use of ifdefs. They are consolidated in system.h file, and then removed from the arch-specific headers.

2008-01-30x86: unify paravirt parts of system.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch moves the i386 control registers manipulation functions, wbinvd, and clts functions to system.h. They are essentially the same as in x86_64. With this, system.h paravirt comes for free in x86_64.

2008-01-30x86: unify load_segment macroGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch unifies the load_segment() macro, making them equal in both x86_64 and i386 architectures. The common version goes to system.h, and the old are deleted.

2008-01-30x86: put together equal pieces of system.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch puts together pieces of system_{32,64}.h that looks like the same. It's the first step towards integration of this file. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
