When kvm is in hpet_legacy_mode, the hpet is providing the timer
interrupt and the pit should not be. So in legacy mode, the pit timer
is destroyed, but the *state* of the pit is maintained. So if kvm or
the guest tries to modify the state of the pit, this modification is
accepted, *except* that the timer isn't actually started. When we exit
hpet_legacy_mode, the current state of the pit (which is up to date
since we've been accepting modifications) is used to restart the pit
timer.
The saved_mode code in kvm_pit_load_count temporarily changes mode to
0xff in order to destroy the timer, but then restores the actual
value, again maintaining "current" state of the pit for possible later
reenablement.

It allows kvm guests to run real mode and unpaged mode

in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real mode

PAT code maps the ISA memory range as WB in the PAT attribute, so that
fixed range MTRR registers define the actual memory type (UC/WC/WT etc).
But the upper level is_new_memtype_allowed() API checks are failing,
as the request here is for UC and the return tracked type is WB (Tracked type is
WB as MTRR type for this legacy range potentially will be different for each
4k page).
Fix is_new_memtype_allowed() by always succeeding the ISA address range
checks, as the null PAT (WB) and def MTRR fixed range register settings
satisfy the memory type needs of the applications that map the ISA address
range.

From Gabe Black in bugzilla 13888:
native_save_fl is implemented as follows:
11static inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void)
12{
13 unsigned long flags;
14
15 asm volatile("# __raw_save_flags\n\t"
16 "pushf ; pop %0"
17 : "=g" (flags)
18 : /* no input */
19 : "memory");
20
21 return flags;
22}
If gcc chooses to put flags on the stack, for instance because this is
inlined into a larger function with more register pressure, the offset
of the flags variable from the stack pointer will change when the
pushf is performed. gcc doesn't attempt to understand that fact, and
address used for pop will still be the same. It will write to
somewhere near flags on the stack but not actually into it and
overwrite some other value.
I saw this happen in the ide_device_add_all function when running in a
simulator I work on. I'm assuming that some quirk of how the simulated
hardware is set up caused the code path this is on to be executed when
it normally wouldn't.
A simple fix might be to change "=g" to "=r".

Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.
Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.
The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

It turns out that:
1. that AMD-based systems have two HT chains.
2. BIOS doesn't allocate resources for BAR 6 of devices under 8132 etc
3. that multi-peer-root patch will try to split root resources to peer
root resources according to PCI conf of NB
4. PCI core assigns unassigned resources, but they overlap with BARs
that are used by ioapic addr of io4 and 8132.
The reason: at that point ioapic address are not inserted yet. Solution
is to insert ioapic resources into the tree a bit earlier.

Occasionally we get bugs where atomic_read or atomic_set are
used on atomic64_t variables or vice versa. These bugs don't
generate warnings on x86 because atomic_read and atomic_set are
coded as macros rather than C functions, so we don't get any
type-checking on their arguments; similarly for atomic64_read
and atomic64_set in 64-bit kernels.
This converts them to C functions so that the arguments are
type-checked and bugs like this will get caught more easily. It
also converts atomic_cmpxchg and atomic_xchg, and
atomic64_cmpxchg and atomic64_xchg on 64-bit, so we get
type-checking on their arguments too.
Compiling a typical 64-bit x86 config, this generates no new
warnings, and the vmlinux text is 86 bytes smaller.

I prefer to just invert the order of the fixmap declaration.
It's simpler and more straightforward.
Backward fixmaps seems to be used by both x86 32 and 64.
It's really rare but a nasty bug, because it only hurts when
instructions to patch are crossing a page boundary. If this
happens, the fixmap write accesses will spill on the following
fixmap, which may very well crash the system. And this does not
crash the system, it could leave illegal instructions in place.
Thanks Masami for finding this.

Linus noted that the atomic64_t primitives are all inlines
currently which is crazy because these functions have a large
register footprint anyway.
Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c
Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to
the much shorter u64.
This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and
it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants
had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.

Locked instructions on two cache lines at once are painful. If
atomic64_t uses two cache lines, my test program is 10x slower.
The chance for that is significant: 4/32 or 12.5%.
Make sure an atomic64_t is 8 bytes aligned.

[ changed it to __aligned(8) as per Andrew's suggestion ]

These macros had two bugs:
- the type of the mask was not correctly expanded to the full size of
the argument being expanded, resulting in possible loss of high bits
when mixing types.
- the alignment argument was evaluated twice, despite the macro looking
like a fancy function (but it really does need to be a macro, since
it works on arbitrary integer types)
Noticed by Peter Anvin, and with a fix that is a modification of his
suggestion (bug noticed by Yinghai Lu).

About every callchains recorded with perf record are filled up
including the internal perfcounter nmi frame:
perf_callchain
perf_counter_overflow
intel_pmu_handle_irq
perf_counter_nmi_handler
notifier_call_chain
atomic_notifier_call_chain
notify_die
do_nmi
nmi
We want ignore this frame as it's not interesting for
instrumentation. To solve this, we simply ignore every frames
from nmi context.

For now this patch only solves the problem in x86-64.

We can run a 32-bit kernel on boxes with an IOMMU, so we need
pci_unmap_addr() etc. to work -- without it, drivers will leak mappings.
To be honest, this whole thing looks like it's more pain than it's
worth; I'm half inclined to remove the no-op #else case altogether.
But this is the minimal fix, which just does the right thing if
CONFIG_DMAR is set.
