Andi Kleen 4ef702c10b x86: fix panic with interrupts off (needed for MCE)
For some time each panic() called with interrupts disabled
triggered the !irqs_disabled() WARN_ON in smp_call_function(),
producing ugly backtraces and confusing users.

This is a common situation with machine checks for example which
tend to call panic with interrupts disabled, but will also hit
in other situations e.g. panic during early boot.  In fact it
means that panic cannot be called in many circumstances, which
would be bad.

This all started with the new fancy queued smp_call_function,
which is then used by the shutdown path to shut down the other
CPUs.

On closer examination it turned out that the fancy RCU
smp_call_function() does lots of things not suitable in a panic
situation anyways, like allocating memory and relying on complex
system state.

I originally tried to patch this over by checking for panic
there, but it was quite complicated and the original patch
was also not very popular.  This also didn't fix some of the
underlying complexity problems.

The new code in post 2.6.29 tries to patch around this by
checking for oops_in_progress, but that is not enough to make
this fully safe and I don't think that's a real solution
because panic has to be reliable.

So instead use an own vector to reboot.  This makes the reboot
code extremly straight forward, which is definitely a big plus
in a panic situation where it is important to avoid relying on
too much kernel state.  The new simple code is also safe to be
called from interupts off region because it is very very simple.

There can be situations where it is important that panic
is reliable.  For example on a fatal machine check the panic
is needed to get the system up again and running as quickly
as possible.  So it's important that panic is reliable and
all function it calls simple.

This is why I came up with this simple vector scheme.
It's very hard to beat in simplicity.  Vectors are not
particularly precious anymore since all big systems are
using per CPU vectors.

Another possibility would have been to use an NMI similar
to kdump, but there is still the problem that NMIs don't
work reliably on some systems due to BIOS issues.  NMIs
would have been able to stop CPUs running with interrupts
off too.  In the sake of universal reliability I opted for
using a non NMI vector for now.

I put the reboot vector into the highest priority bucket of
the APIC vectors and moved the 64bit UV_BAU message down
instead into the next lower priority.

Andi Kleen ccc3c3192a x86, mce: implement bootstrapping for machine check wakeups
Machine checks support waking up the mcelog daemon quickly.

The original wake up code for this was pretty ugly, relying on
a idle notifier and a special process flag. The reason it did
it this way is that the machine check handler is not subject
to normal interrupt locking rules so it's not safe
to call wake_up().  Instead it set a process flag
and then either did the wakeup in the syscall return
or in the idle notifier.

This patch adds a new "bootstraping" method as replacement.

The idea is that the handler checks if it's in a state where
it is unsafe to call wake_up(). If it's safe it calls it directly.
When it's not safe -- that is it interrupted in a critical
section with interrupts disables -- it uses a new "self IPI" to trigger
an IPI to its own CPU. This can be done safely because IPI
triggers are atomic with some care. The IPI is raised
once the interrupts are reenabled and can then safely call
wake_up().

When APICs are disabled the event is just queued and will be picked up
eventually by the next polling timer. I think that's a reasonable
compromise, since it should only happen quite rarely.

Contains fixes from Ying Huang.

Tejun Heo 02cf94c370 x86: make x86_32 use tlb_64.c
Impact: less contention when issuing invalidate IPI, cleanup

Make x86_32 use the same tlb code as 64bit.  The 64bit code uses
multiple IPI vectors for tlb shootdown to reduce contention.  This
patch makes x86_32 allocate the same 8 IPIs as x86_64 and share the
code paths.

Note that the usage of asmlinkage is inconsistent for x86_32 and 64
and calls for further cleanup.  This has been noted with a FIXME
comment in tlb_64.c.

* reorder x86_32 ip vectors

* adjust tlb_32.c and tlb_64.c such that their logics coincide exactly
	- on spurious invalidate ipi, tlb_32 acks the irq
	- tlb_64 now has proper memory barriers around clearing
          flush_cpumask (no change in generated code)

* unexport flush_tlb_page from tlb_32.c, there's no user

* use unsigned int for cpu id

* drop unnecessary includes from tlb_64.c

Mike Travis 9332fccded irq: initialize nr_irqs based on nr_cpu_ids
Impact: Reduce memory usage.

This is the second half of the changes to make the irq_desc_ptrs be
variable sized based on nr_cpu_ids.  This is done by adding a new
"max_nr_irqs" macro to irq_vectors.h (and a dummy in irqnr.h) to
return a max NR_IRQS value based on NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids.

This necessitated moving the define of MAX_IO_APICS to a separate
file (asm/apicnum.h) so it could be included without the baggage
of the other asm/apicdef.h declarations.

Yinghai Lu 0b8f1efad3 sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes
Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.
