Don't generate interrupt stubs for interrupt vectors below
FIRST_EXTERNAL_VECTOR, and make the table of interrupt vectors

497c9a195d x86: make 32bit support per_cpu vector
so we can merge io_apic_32.c and io_apic_64.c

v2: Use cpu_online_map as target cpus for bigsmp, just like 64-bit is doing.

Also remove some unused TARGET_CPUS macro.

v3: need to check if desc is null in smp_irq_move_cleanup

also migration needs to reset vector too, so copy __target_IO_APIC_irq
from 64bit.

(the duplication will go away once the two files are unified.)

593f4a788e x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternatives
Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum
for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time.  Remove the
X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to
apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the
ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum.  Remove
apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed.
Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends.  The use of
ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have
used it for readability's sake.

I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead
and here it is.  Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested
with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP
"feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as
expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days).
Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs
it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I
have disregarded it.

I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated
and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I
have left changes to them out.  The option will get removed from them at
the next run.

Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some
stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that
intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will
everywhere.

4357bd9453 lguest: Revert 1ce70c4fac, fix real problem.
Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest
bug, and indeed it wasn't.

The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table
being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return
an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables
for each Guest).

Commit 37cc8d7f96 introduced this
behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug.

The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index
calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the
early exit path of guest_set_pmd().  But you get lots of segfaults in
guest userspace as the PMDs aren't being updated.

3fabc55f34 lguest: Sanitize the lguest clock.
Now the TSC code handles a zero return from calculate_cpu_khz(),
lguest can simply pass through the value it gets from the Host: if
non-zero, all the normal TSC code applies.

Otherwise (or if the Host really doesn't support TSC), the clocksource
code will fall back to the slower but reasonable lguest clock.

1ce70c4fac x86/lguest: fix pgdir pmd index calculation
Hi all,

Beginning from commits close to v2.6.25-rc2, running lguest always oopses
the host kernel. Oops is at [1].

Bisection led to the following commit:

commit 37cc8d7f96

    x86/early_ioremap: don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir

    At the early stages of boot, before the kernel pagetable has been
    fully initialized, a Xen kernel will still be running off the
    Xen-provided pagetables rather than swapper_pg_dir[].  Therefore,
    readback cr3 to determine the base of the pagetable rather than
    assuming swapper_pg_dir[].

 static inline pmd_t * __init early_ioremap_pmd(unsigned long addr)
 {
-	pgd_t *pgd = &swapper_pg_dir[pgd_index(addr)];
+	/* Don't assume we're using swapper_pg_dir at this point */
+	pgd_t *base = __va(read_cr3());
+	pgd_t *pgd = &base[pgd_index(addr)];
 	pud_t *pud = pud_offset(pgd, addr);
 	pmd_t *pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr);

Trying to analyze the problem, it seems on the guest side of lguest,
%cr3 has a different value from &swapper_pg-dir (which
is AFAIK fine on a pravirt guest):

Putting some debugging messages in early_ioremap_pmd:

/* Appears 3 times */
[    0.000000] ***************************
[    0.000000] __va(%cr3) = c0000000, &swapper_pg_dir = c02cc000
[    0.000000] ***************************

After 8 hours of debugging and staring on lguest code, I noticed something
strange in paravirt_ops->set_pmd hypercall invocation:

static void lguest_set_pmd(pmd_t *pmdp, pmd_t pmdval)
{
	*pmdp = pmdval;
	lazy_hcall(LHCALL_SET_PMD, __pa(pmdp)&PAGE_MASK,
		   (__pa(pmdp)&(PAGE_SIZE-1))/4, 0);
}

The first hcall parameter is global pgdir which looks fine. The second
parameter is the pmd index in the pgdir which is suspectful.

AFAIK, calculating the index of pmd does not need a divisoin over four.
Removing the division made lguest work fine again . Patch is at [2].

I am not sure why the division over four existed in the first place. It
seems bogus, maybe the Xen patch just made the problem appear ?

[2]: The patch:

[PATCH] lguest: fix pgdir pmd index cacluation

Remove an error in index calculation which leads to removing
a not existing shadow page table (leading to a Null dereference).

field, that for lguest is "1".  This allows us to use the standard
boot entry point rather than the "GenuineLguest" string hack.

The standard entry point also clears the BSS and copies the boot parameters
and commandline for us, saving more code.

19f1537b7b Lguest support for Virtio
This makes lguest able to use the virtio devices.

We change the device descriptor page from a simple array to a variable
length "type, config_len, status, config data..." format, and
implement virtio_config_ops to read from that config data.

We use the virtio ring implementation for an efficient Guest <-> Host
virtqueue mechanism, and the new LHCALL_NOTIFY hypercall to kick the
host when it changes.

We also use LHCALL_NOTIFY on kernel addresses for very very early
console output.  We could have another hypercall, but this hack works
quite well.

0ca49ca946 Remove old lguest bus and drivers.
This gets rid of the lguest bus, drivers and DMA mechanism, to make
way for a generic virtio mechanism.

0a8a69dd77 Virtio helper routines for a descriptor ringbuffer implementation
These helper routines supply most of the virtqueue_ops for hypervisors
which want to use a ring for virtio.  Unlike the previous lguest
implementation:

1) The rings are variable sized (2^n-1 elements).
2) They have an unfortunate limit of 65535 bytes per sg element.
3) The page numbers are always 64 bit (PAE anyone?)
4) They no longer place used[] on a separate page, just a separate
   cacheline.
5) We do a modulo on a variable.  We could be tricky if we cared.
6) Interrupts and notifies are suppressed using flags within the rings.

Users need only get the ring pages and provide a notify hook (KVM
wants the guest to allocate the rings, lguest does it sanely).

47436aa4ad Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages.

2) It means we don't have to know page_offset.

3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the
   PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code.

4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset.

5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was
   always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done
   before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular).

6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial
   hypercall give us that, too.

c18acd73ff Allow guest to specify syscall vector to use.
(Based on Ron Minnich's LGUEST_PLAN9_SYSCALL patch).

This patch allows Guests to specify what system call vector they want,
and we try to reserve it.  We only allow one non-Linux system call
vector, to try to avoid DoS on the Host.

b410e7b149 Make hypercalls arch-independent.
Clean up the hypercall code to make the code in hypercalls.c
architecture independent. First process the common hypercalls and
then call lguest_arch_do_hcall() if the call hasn't been handled.
Rename struct hcall_ring to hcall_args.

This patch requires the previous patch which reorganize the layout of
struct lguest_regs on i386 so they match the layout of struct
hcall_args.

34b8867a03 Move lguest guest support to arch/x86.
Lguest has two sides: host support (to launch guests) and guest
support (replacement boot path and paravirt_ops).  This moves the
guest side to arch/x86/lguest where it's closer to related code.
