2010-07-01x86: Drop CONFIG_MCORE2 check around setting of NET_IP_ALIGNAlexander Duyck1-2/+0
This patch removes the CONFIG_MCORE2 check from around NET_IP_ALIGN. It is based on a suggestion from Andi Kleen. The assumption is that there are not any x86 cores where unaligned access is really slow, and this change would allow for a performance improvement to still exist on configurations that are not necessarily optimized for Core 2.

x86 architectures can handle unaligned accesses in hardware, and it has been shown that unaligned DMA accesses can be expensive on Nehalem architectures.

2009-10-29percpu: remove per_cpu__ prefix.Rusty Russell1-4/+4
Now that the return from alloc_percpu is compatible with the address of per-cpu vars, it makes sense to hand around the address of per-cpu variables. To make this sane, we remove the per_cpu__ prefix we used created to stop people accidentally using these vars directly. Now we have sparse, we can use that (next patch). tj: * Updated to convert stuff which were missed by or added after the original patch. * Kill per_cpu_var() macro.

2009-09-03x86/i386: Make sure stack-protector segment base is cache alignedJeremy Fitzhardinge1-1/+1
The Intel Optimization Reference Guide says: In Intel Atom microarchitecture, the address generation unit assumes that the segment base will be 0 by default. Non-zero segment base will cause load and store operations to experience a delay. - If the segment base isn't aligned to a cache line boundary, the max throughput of memory operations is reduced to one [e]very 9 cycles. [...] Assembly/Compiler Coding Rule 15. (H impact, ML generality) For Intel Atom processors, use segments with base set to 0 whenever possible; avoid non-zero segment base address that is not aligned to cache line boundary at all cost. We can't avoid having a non-zero base for the stack-protector segment, but we can make it cache-aligned.

2009-02-11x86: fix x86_32 stack protector bugsTejun Heo1-5/+3
Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary value for all threads. Fixing this also exposed the following bugs. * cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary() * stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value. Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about calling boot_init_stack_canary().

2009-02-10x86: implement x86_32 stack protectorTejun Heo1-0/+21
Impact: stack protector for x86_32 Implement stack protector for x86_32. GDT entry 28 is used for it. It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes. CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs to the stack canary segment on entry. As %gs is otherwise unused by the kernel, the canary can be anywhere. It's defined as a percpu variable. x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as struct pt_regs. With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy back on return thus losing all changed. For now, -fno-stack-protector is added to all files which contain those functions. We definitely need something better.

2009-02-10x86: make lazy %gs optional on x86_32Tejun Heo1-1/+11
Impact: pt_regs changed, lazy gs handling made optional, add slight overhead to SAVE_ALL, simplifies error_code path a bit On x86_32, %gs hasn't been used by kernel and handled lazily. pt_regs doesn't have place for it and gs is saved/loaded only when necessary. In preparation for stack protector support, this patch makes lazy %gs handling optional by doing the followings. * Add CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and place for gs in pt_regs. * Save and restore %gs along with other registers in entry_32.S unless LAZY_GS. Note that this unfortunately adds "pushl $0" on SAVE_ALL even when LAZY_GS. However, it adds no overhead to common exit path and simplifies entry path with error code. * Define different user_gs accessors depending on LAZY_GS and add lazy_save_gs() and lazy_load_gs() which are noop if !LAZY_GS. The lazy_*_gs() ops are used to save, load and clear %gs lazily. * Define ELF_CORE_COPY_KERNEL_REGS() which always read %gs directly. xen and lguest changes need to be verified.

2009-02-10x86: add %gs accessors for x86_32Tejun Heo1-0/+9
Impact: cleanup On x86_32, %gs is handled lazily. It's not saved and restored on kernel entry/exit but only when necessary which usually is during task switch but there are few other places. Currently, it's done by calling savesegment() and loadsegment() explicitly. Define get_user_gs(), set_user_gs() and task_user_gs() and use them instead. While at it, clean up register access macros in signal.c. This cleans up code a bit and will help future changes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-11-11x86: call machine_shutdown and stop all CPUs in native_machine_haltIvan Vecera1-0/+2
Impact: really halt all CPUs on halt Function machine_halt (resp. native_machine_halt) is empty for x86 architectures. When command 'halt -f' is invoked, the message "System halted." is displayed but this is not really true because all CPUs are still running. There are also similar inconsistencies for other arches (some uses power-off for halt or forever-loop with IRQs enabled/disabled). IMO there should be used the same approach for all architectures OR what does the message "System halted" really mean? This patch fixes it for x86.
