2009-02-02x86 setup: a20: early timeout for a nonexistent keyboard controllerH. Peter Anvin
When probing the keyboard controller to enable A20, if we get FF back (which is *possible* as a valid status word, but is extremely unlikely) then bail after much fewer iterations than we otherwise would, and abort the attempt to access the KBC. This hopefully should make it work a lot better for embedded platforms which don't have a KBC and where the BIOS doesn't implement INT 15h AX=2401h (and doesn't boot with A20 already enabled.) If this works, it will be the one remaining use of CONFIG_X86_ELAN as anything other than a processor type optimization option. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

2009-02-02x86/vmi: fix interrupt enable/disable/save/restore calling convention.Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Zach says: > Enable/Disable have no clobbers at all. > Save clobbers only return value, %eax > Restore also clobbers nothing. This is precisely compatible with the calling convention, so we can just call them directly without wrapping. (Compile tested only.)

2009-02-02x86/paravirt: don't restore second return regJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: bugfix In the 32-bit calling convention, %eax:%edx is used to return 64-bit values. Don't save and restore %edx around wrapped functions, or they can't return a full 64-bit result.

2009-01-31x86/Voyager: make it build and bootJames Bottomley
[ mingo@elte.hu: these fixes are a subset of changes cherry-picked from: git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/voyager-2.6.git They fix various problems that recent x86 changes caused in the Voyager subarchitecture: both APIC changes and cpumask changes and certain cleanups caused subarch assumptions to break. Most of these changes are obsolete as the subarch code has been removed from the x86 development tree - but we merge them upstream to make Voyager build and boot. ] Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-01-31xen: setup percpu data pointersJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: fix xen booting We need to access percpu data fairly early, so set up the percpu registers as soon as possible. We only need to load the appropriate segment register. We already have a GDT, but its hard to change it early because we need to manipulate the pagetable to do so, and that hasn't been set up yet.

2009-01-31x86: split loading percpu segments from loading gdtJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: split out a function, no functional change Xen needs to be able to access percpu data from very early on. For various reasons, it cannot also load the gdt at that time. It does, however, have a pefectly functional gdt at that point, so there's no pressing need to reload the gdt. Split the function to load the segment registers off, so Xen can call it directly.

2009-01-31x86: pass in cpu number to switch_to_new_gdt()Brian Gerst

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: use callee-saved convention for pte_val/make_pte/etcJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization In the native case, pte_val, make_pte, etc are all just identity functions, so there's no need to clobber a lot of registers over them. (This changes the 32-bit callee-save calling convention to return both EAX and EDX so functions can return 64-bit values.)

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: implement PVOP_CALL macros for callee-save functionsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Functions with the callee save calling convention clobber many fewer registers than the normal C calling convention. Implement variants of PVOP_V?CALL* accordingly. This only bothers with functions up to 3 args, since functions with more args may as well use the normal calling convention.

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: add register-saving thunks to reduce caller register pressureJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization One of the problems with inserting a pile of C calls where previously there were none is that the register pressure is greatly increased. The C calling convention says that the caller must expect a certain set of registers may be trashed by the callee, and that the callee can use those registers without restriction. This includes the function argument registers, and several others. This patch seeks to alleviate this pressure by introducing wrapper thunks that will do the register saving/restoring, so that the callsite doesn't need to worry about it, but the callee function can be conventional compiler-generated code. In many cases (particularly performance-sensitive cases) the callee will be in assembler anyway, and need not use the compiler's calling convention. Standard calling convention is: arguments return scratch x86-32 eax edx ecx eax ? x86-64 rdi rsi rdx rcx rax r8 r9 r10 r11 The thunk preserves all argument and scratch registers. The return register is not preserved, and is available as a scratch register for unwrapped callee code (and of course the return value). Wrapped function pointers are themselves wrapped in a struct paravirt_callee_save structure, in order to get some warning from the compiler when functions with mismatched calling conventions are used. The most common paravirt ops, both statically and dynamically, are interrupt enable/disable/save/restore, so handle them first. This is particularly easy since their calls are handled specially anyway. XXX Deal with VMI. What's their calling convention? Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86/paravirt: selectively save/restore regs around pvops callsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Each asm paravirt-ops call says what registers are available for clobbering. This patch makes use of this to selectively save/restore registers around each pvops call. In many cases this significantly shrinks code size. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86: fix paravirt clobber in entry_64.SJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Fix latent bug The clobber is trying to say that anything except RDI is available for clobbering, but actually clobbers everything. This hasn't mattered because the clobbers were basically ignored, but subsequent patches will rely on them. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86/pvops: add a paravirt_ident functions to allow special patchingJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Several paravirt ops implementations simply return their arguments, the most obvious being the make_pte/pte_val class of operations on native. On 32-bit, the identity function is literally a no-op, as the calling convention uses the same registers for the first argument and return. On 64-bit, it can be implemented with a single "mov". This patch adds special identity functions for 32 and 64 bit argument, and machinery to recognize them and replace them with either nops or a mov as appropriate. At the moment, the only users for the identity functions are the pagetable entry conversion functions. The result is a measureable improvement on pagetable-heavy benchmarks (2-3%, reducing the pvops overhead from 5 to 2%).
