Glauber Costa 7c18341665 x86: provide a bad_dma_address symbol for i386
It's initially 0, since we don't expect any DMA there.

Glauber Costa b48ee71352 x86: align to clflush size
Do it instead of using the conservative approach we're currently
doing. This is the way x86_64 does, and this patch makes this piece
of code the same between them, ready to be integrated.

solution will be:
1. make memmap allocation get memory above 4G...
2. reserve some dma32 range early before we try to set up memmap for all.
and release that before pci_iommu_alloc, so gart or swiotlb could get some
range under 4g limit for sure.

the patch is using method 2.
because method1 may need more code to handle SPARSEMEM and SPASEMEM_VMEMMAP

Only allocate the FPU area when the application actually uses FPU, i.e., in the
first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps.

for example: on my system after boot, there are around 300 processes, with
only 17 using FPU.

Suresh Siddha 61c4628b53 x86, fpu: split FPU state from task struct - v5
Split the FPU save area from the task struct. This allows easy migration
of FPU context, and it's generally cleaner. It also allows the following
two optimizations:

1) only allocate when the application actually uses FPU, so in the first
lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. Next patch
does this lazy allocation.

2) allocate the right size for the actual cpu rather than 512 bytes always.
Patches enabling xsave/xrstor support (coming shortly) will take advantage
of this.

Thomas Gleixner d8bb6f4c16 x86: tsc prevent time going backwards
We already catch most of the TSC problems by sanity checks, but there
is a subtle bug which has been in the code forever. This can cause
time jumps in the range of hours.

This was reported in:
     http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/23/96
and
     http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/31/23

I was able to reproduce the problem with a gettimeofday loop test on a
dual core and a quad core machine which both have sychronized
TSCs. The TSCs seems not to be perfectly in sync though, but the
kernel is not able to detect the slight delta in the sync check. Still
there exists an extremly small window where this delta can be observed
with a real big time jump. So far I was only able to reproduce this
with the vsyscall gettimeofday implementation, but in theory this
might be observable with the syscall based version as well.

CPU 0 updates the clock source variables under xtime/vyscall lock and
CPU1, where the TSC is slighty behind CPU0, is reading the time right
after the seqlock was unlocked.

The clocksource reference data was updated with the TSC from CPU0 and
the value which is read from TSC on CPU1 is less than the reference
data. This results in a huge delta value due to the unsigned
subtraction of the TSC value and the reference value. This algorithm
can not be changed due to the support of wrapping clock sources like
pm timer.

The huge delta is converted to nanoseconds and added to xtime, which
is then observable by the caller. The next gettimeofday call on CPU1
will show the correct time again as now the TSC has advanced above the
reference value.

To prevent this TSC specific wreckage we need to compare the TSC value
against the reference value and return the latter when it is larger
than the actual TSC value.

I pondered to mark the TSC unstable when the readout is smaller than
the reference value, but this would render an otherwise good and fast
clocksource unusable without a real good reason.

Erik Bosman 529e25f646 x86: implement prctl PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC
This patch implements the PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC prctl()
commands on the x86 platform (both 32 and 64 bit.) These
commands control the ability to read the timestamp counter
from userspace (the RDTSC instruction.)

While the RDTSC instuction is a useful profiling tool,
it is also the source of some non-determinism in ring-3.
For deterministic replay applications it is useful to be
able to trap and emulate (and record the outcome of) this
instruction.

This patch uses code earlier used to disable the timestamp
counter for the SECCOMP framework. A side-effect of this
patch is that the SECCOMP environment will now also disable
the timestamp counter on x86_64 due to the addition of the
TIF_NOTSC define on this platform.

The code which enables/disables the RDTSC instruction during
context switches is in the __switch_to_xtra function, which
already handles other unusual conditions, so normal
performance should not have to suffer from this change.

Yinghai Lu 2b8106a0a3 x86_64: do not reserve ramdisk two times
ramdisk is reserved via reserve_early in x86_64_start_kernel,
later early_res_to_bootmem() will convert to reservation in bootmem.

so don't need to reserve that again.

Huang, Ying 4a3575fd43 x86: EFI_PAGE_SHIFT fix
Make x86 EFI code works when EFI_PAGE_SHIFT != PAGE_SHIFT. The
memrage_efi_to_native() provided in this patch can be used on other
EFI platform such as IA64 too.

This patch has been tested on Intel x86_64 platform with EFI 64/32
firmware.

Ahmed S. Darwish 076c54c5bc Security: Introduce security= boot parameter
Add the security= boot parameter. This is done to avoid LSM
registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module.

User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no
security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM
asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security
module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen.

LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register
by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux
and SMACK to do so.

Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on
boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and
the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

Ahmed S. Darwish 9d57a7f9e2 SELinux: use new audit hooks, remove redundant exports
Setup the new Audit LSM hooks for SELinux.
Remove the now redundant exported SELinux Audit interface.

Audit: Export 'audit_krule' and 'audit_field' to the public
since their internals are needed by the implementation of the
new LSM hook 'audit_rule_known'.
