2016-12-09x86/amd: Simplify AMD E400 aware idle routineBorislav Petkov1-1/+1
Reorganize the E400 detection now that we have everything in place: switch the CPUs to broadcast mode after the LAPIC has been initialized and remove the facilities that were used previously on the idle path. Unfortunately static_cpu_has_bug() cannpt be used in the E400 idle routine because alternatives have been applied when the actual detection happens, so the static switching does not take effect and the test will stay false. Use boot_cpu_has_bug() instead which is definitely an improvement over the RDMSR and the cpumask handling.

2016-12-06tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()Dan Williams2-3/+5
A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl() and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing the rest of the tests to not run / fail. This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress against implementations it has seen in practice.

2016-12-06acpi, nfit: fix bus vs dimm confusion in xlat_statusDan Williams1-3/+14
Given dimms and bus commands share the same command number space we need to be careful that we are translating status in the correct context. Otherwise we can, for example, fail an ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE command because max_xfer is zero. It fails because that condition erroneously correlates with the 'cleared == 0' failure of ND_CMD_CLEAR_ERROR.

2016-12-06acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handlingDan Williams1-1/+2
Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)" field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there is no output payload to process. The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status and Extended Status fields)". Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit test. ars_status00000000: 00020000 00000000 ........

The "faulty" IR line set at arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c:1349 is also 0xf6 (specifically APIC IRR for irqs 255 to 224 is 0x400000) which confirms that something has set the IRQ_WORK_VECTOR line prior to the APIC being initialized.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps for the Thunder driver. That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an error. Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically. But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has to stay. However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change. Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-11-17cpufreq: intel_pstate: Request P-states control from SMM if neededRafael J. Wysocki1-17/+28
Currently, intel_pstate is unable to control P-states on my IvyBridge-based Acer Aspire S5, because they are controlled by SMM on that machine by default and it is necessary to request OS control of P-states from it via the SMI Command register exposed in the ACPI FADT. intel_pstate doesn't do that now, but acpi-cpufreq and other cpufreq drivers for x86 platforms do. Address this problem by making intel_pstate use the ACPI-defined mechanism as well. However, intel_pstate is not modular and it doesn't need the module refcount tricks played by acpi_processor_notify_smm(), so export the core of this function to it as acpi_processor_pstate_control() and make it call that. [The changes in processor_perflib.c related to this should not make any functional difference for the acpi_processor_notify_smm() users]. To be safe, only call acpi_processor_notify_smm() from intel_pstate if ACPI _PPC support is enabled in it.
