binutils prior to 2.18 (e.g. the ones found on SLE10) don't support
assembling PEXTRD, so a macro based approach like the one for PCLMULQDQ
in the same file should be used.
This requires making the helper macros capable of recognizing 32-bit
general purpose register operands.

GRU hardware will support an optional distributed mode that will
allow per-node address mapping of local GRU space, as opposed
to mapping all GRU hardware to the same contiguous high space.
If GRU distributed mode is selected, setup per-node page table
mappings.

The patch "x86: Increase precision of x86_platform.get/set_wallclock"
changed the x86 platform set_wallclock/get_wallclock interfaces to
use nsec granular timespecs instead of a second granular interface.
However, that patch missed converting the vrtc code, so this patch
converts those functions to use timespecs.
Many thanks to the kbuild test robot for finding this!

Commit f447d56d36af18c5104ff29dcb1327c0c0ac3634 introduced the
implementation of the PV apic ipi interface. But there were some
odd things (it seems none of which cause really any issue but
maybe they should be cleaned up anyway):
- xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself (and by that xen_send_IPI_allbutself)
ignore the passed in vector and only use the CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE
vector. While xen_send_IPI_all and xen_send_IPI_mask use the vector.
- physflat_send_IPI_allbutself is declared unnecessarily. It is never
used.
This patch tries to clean up those things.

In head_64.S, a switchover has been used to handle kernel crossing
1G, 512G boundaries.
And commit 8170e6bed465b4b0c7687f93e9948aca4358a33b
x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize early mappings on demand
said:
During the switchover in head_64.S, before #PF handler is available,
we use three pages to handle kernel crossing 1G, 512G boundaries with
sharing page by playing games with page aliasing: the same page is
mapped twice in the higher-level tables with appropriate wraparound.
But from the switchover code, when we set up the PUD table:
114 addq $4096, %rdx
115 movq %rdi, %rax
116 shrq $PUD_SHIFT, %rax
117 andl $(PTRS_PER_PUD-1), %eax
118 movq %rdx, (4096+0)(%rbx,%rax,8)
119 movq %rdx, (4096+8)(%rbx,%rax,8)
It seems line 119 has a potential bug there. For example,
if the kernel is loaded at physical address 511G+1008M, that is
000000000 111111111 111111000 000000000000000000000
and the kernel _end is 512G+2M, that is
000000001 000000000 000000001 000000000000000000000
So in this example, when using the 2nd page to setup PUD (line 114~119),
rax is 511.
In line 118, we put rdx which is the address of the PMD page (the 3rd page)
into entry 511 of the PUD table. But in line 119, the entry we calculate from
(4096+8)(%rbx,%rax,8) has exceeded the PUD page. IMO, the entry in line
119 should be wraparound into entry 0 of the PUD table.
The patch fixes the bug.

All the virtualized platforms (KVM, lguest and Xen) have persistent
wallclocks that have more than one second of precision.
read_persistent_wallclock() and update_persistent_wallclock() allow
for nanosecond precision but their implementation on x86 with
x86_platform.get/set_wallclock() only allows for one second precision.
This means guests may see a wallclock time that is off by up to 1
second.
Make set_wallclock() and get_wallclock() take a struct timespec
parameter (which allows for nanosecond precision) so KVM and Xen
guests may start with a more accurate wallclock time and a Xen dom0
can maintain a more accurate wallclock for guests.

We're trying to use 64 bit masks but the shifts wrap so we can't use the
high 32 bits. I've fixed this by changing several types to unsigned
long long.
This is a static checker fix. The one change which is clearly needed is
"mask = 0xff << (idx * 8);" where the author obviously intended to use
all 64 bits. The other changes are mostly to silence my static checker.

While porting Vince's perf overflow tests I found perf event
breakpoint overflow does not work properly.
I found the x86 RF EFLAG bit not being set when returning
from debug exception after triggering signal handler. Which
is exactly what you get when you set perf breakpoint overflow
SIGIO handler.
This patch and the next two patches fix the underlying bugs.
This patch adds the RF EFLAGS bit to be restored on return from
signal from the original register context before the signal was
entered.
This will prevent the RF flag to disappear when returning
from exception due to the signal handler being executed.

The _XFER stack element size was set too small, 8 bytes, when it needs to be
16 bytes. As _XFER is the last stack element used by these implementations,
the 16 byte stores with 'movdqa' corrupt the stack where the value of register
%r12 is temporarily stored. As these implementations align the stack pointer
to 16 bytes, this corruption did not happen every time.
Patch corrects this issue.

In commit 78d77df71510 ("x86-64, init: Do not set NX bits on non-NX
capable hardware") we added the early_pmd_flags that gets the NX bit set
when a CPU supports NX. However, the new variable was marked __initdata,
because the main _use_ of this is in an __init routine.
However, the bit setting happens from secondary_startup_64(), which is
called not only at bootup, but on every secondary CPU start. Including
resuming from STR and at CPU hotplug time. So the value cannot be
__initdata.

This patch makes sure the bpf generated code is marked read only,
as other kernel text sections.
It also splits the unused space (we vmalloc() and only use a fraction of
the page) in two parts, so that the generated bpf code not starts at a
known offset in the page, but a pseudo random one.

Since commit 9a163ed8e0 (i386: move kernel) kernel/i386_head.S
was renamed to kernel/head_32.S. We do the same for lguest/i386_head.S.

As requested by the KVM maintainers, remove the addprefix used to
refer to the main KVM code from the arch code, and replace it with
a KVM variable that does the same thing.

It looks like we can call module_free()/vfree() from softirq context,
so no longer need a wrapper and a work_struct.

Do locking around each case separately instead of having one lock and two
unlocks. Move root_hpa assignment out of the lock.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Cure for not using zalloc in the first place, which leads to random
crashes with CPUMASK_OFF_STACK.
- Revert a user space visible change which broke udev
- Add a missing cpu_online early return introduced by the new full
dyntick conversions
- Plug a long standing race in the timer wheel cpu hotplug code.
Sigh...
- Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down to prevent stale data on cpu
up.

kvmclock updates which are isolated to a given vcpu, such as vcpu->cpu
migration, should not allow system_timestamp from the rest of the vcpus
to remain static. Otherwise ntp frequency correction applies to one
vcpu's system_timestamp but not the others.
So in those cases, request a kvmclock update for all vcpus. The worst
case for a remote vcpu to update its kvmclock is then bounded by maximum
nohz sleep latency.

Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config,
which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid
uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause
problems for userland.
In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on
!ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time
twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect
of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be
zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the
/dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for
older applications.
While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile,
breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally
the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code
being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so
lets revert this change.

Since the arrival of posted interrupt support we can no longer guarantee
that coalesced IRQs are always reported to the IRQ source. Moreover,
accumulated APIC timer events could cause a busy loop when a VCPU should
rather be halted. The consensus is to remove coalesced tracking from the
LAPIC.

That will be better initial the value of DataSize to zero for the input of
GetVariable(), otherwise we will feed a random value. The debug log of input
DataSize like this:
...
[ 195.915612] EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17
[ 195.915819] efi: size: 18446744071581821342
[ 195.915969] efi: size': 18446744071581821342

[ 195.917453] efi: size': 18446612150714306560
...
The size' is value that was returned by BIOS.
After applied this patch:
[ 82.442042] EFI Variables Facility v0.08 2004-May-17
[ 82.442202] efi: size: 0
[ 82.442360] efi: size': 1039

[ 82.447057] efi: size: 0
[ 82.447356] efi: size': 5832
...
Found on Acer Aspire V3 BIOS, it will not return the size of data if we input a
non-zero DataSize.

It is sometimes very helpful to be able to pinpoint the location which
causes a double fault before it turns into a triple fault and the
machine reboots. We have this for 32-bit already so extend it to 64-bit.
On 64-bit we get the register snapshot at #DF time and not from the
first exception which actually causes the #DF. It should be close
enough, though.
[ hpa: and definitely better than nothing, which is what we have now. ]
