ppc and s390 offer the possibility to track process times precisely
by looking at cpu timer on every context switch, irq, softirq etc.
We can use that infrastructure as well for guest time accounting.
We need to account the used time before we change the state.
This patch adds a call to account_system_vtime to kvm_guest_enter
and kvm_guest exit. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not set,
account_system_vtime is defined in hardirq.h as an empty function,
which means this patch does not change the behaviour on other

This patch splits kvm_vcpu_ioctl into archtecture independent parts, and
x86 specific parts which go to kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl in x86.c.
Common ioctls for all architectures are:
KVM_RUN, KVM_GET/SET_(S-)REGS, KVM_TRANSLATE, KVM_INTERRUPT,
KVM_DEBUG_GUEST, KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK, KVM_GET/SET_FPU
Note that some PPC chips don't have an FPU, so we might need an #ifdef
around KVM_GET/SET_FPU one day.
x86 specific ioctls are:
KVM_GET/SET_LAPIC, KVM_SET_CPUID, KVM_GET/SET_MSRS
An interresting aspect is vcpu_load/vcpu_put. We now have a common
vcpu_load/put which does the preemption stuff, and an architecture
specific kvm_arch_vcpu_load/put. In the x86 case, this one calls the
vmx/svm function defined in kvm_x86_ops.

When we allow guest page faults to reach the guests directly, we lose
the fault tracking which allows us to detect demand paging. So we provide
an alternate mechnism by clearing the accessed bit when we set a pte, and
checking it later to see if the guest actually used it.
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
There are two classes of page faults trapped by kvm:
- host page faults, where the fault is needed to allow kvm to install
the shadow pte or update the guest accessed and dirty bits
- guest page faults, where the guest has faulted and kvm simply injects
the fault back into the guest to handle
The second class, guest page faults, is pure overhead. We can eliminate
some of it on vmx using the following evil trick:
- when we set up a shadow page table entry, if the corresponding guest pte
is not present, set up the shadow pte as not present
- if the guest pte _is_ present, mark the shadow pte as present but also
set one of the reserved bits in the shadow pte
- tell the vmx hardware not to trap faults which have the present bit clear
With this, normal page-not-present faults go directly to the guest,
bypassing kvm entirely.
Unfortunately, this trick only works on Intel hardware, as AMD lacks a
way to discriminate among page faults based on error code. It is also
a little risky since it uses reserved bits which might become unreserved
in the future, so a module parameter is provided to disable it.

KVM avoids reloading the efer msr when the difference between the guest

hardware) and the NX bit (which is emulated by the KVM MMU).
This patch also allows KVM to ignore SCE (syscall enable) when the guest

This patch refactors the current hypercall infrastructure to better
support live migration and SMP. It eliminates the hypercall page by
trapping the UD exception that would occur if you used the wrong hypercall
instruction for the underlying architecture and replacing it with the right
one lazily.
A fall-out of this patch is that the unhandled hypercalls no longer trap to
userspace. There is very little reason though to use a hypercall to
communicate with userspace as PIO or MMIO can be used. There is no code
in tree that uses userspace hypercalls.

Both the old e1000 driver and the new e1000e driver can drive some
PCI-Express e1000 cards, and we should avoid ambiguity about which
driver will pick up the support for those cards when both drivers are
enabled.
This solves the problem by having the old driver support those cards if
the new driver isn't configured, but otherwise ceding support for PCI
Express versions of the e1000 chipset to the newer driver. Thus
allowing both legacy configurations where only the old driver is active
(and handles all chips it knows about) and the new configuration with
the new driver handling the more modern PCIE variants.

This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.
If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.
With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.
In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.
An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.

Aviod TLB flush IPIs during C3 states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering C3.
The performance impact of TLB flush on C3 should not be significant with
respect to C3 wakeup latency. Also, CPUs tend to flush TLB in hardware while in
C3 anyways.
On a 8 logical CPU system, running make -j2, the number of tlbflush IPIs goes
down from 40 per second to ~ 0. Total number of interrupts during the run
of this workload was ~1200 per second, which makes it ~3% savings in wakeups.
There was no measurable performance or power impact however.

People with HP Desktops (including me) encounter couple of DMI errors
during boot - dmi_save_oem_strings_devices: out of memory and
dmi_string: out of memory.
On some HP desktops the DMI data include OEM strings (type 11) out of
which only few are meaningful and most other are empty. DMI code
religiously creates copies of these 27 strings (65 bytes each in my
case) and goes OOM in dmi_string().
If DMI_MAX_DATA is bumped up a little then it goes and fails in
dmi_save_oem_strings while allocating dmi_devices of sizeof(struct
dmi_device) corresponding to these strings.
On x86_64 since we cannot use alloc_bootmem this early, the code uses a
static array of 2048 bytes (DMI_MAX_DATA) for allocating the memory DMI
needs. It does not survive the creation of empty strings and devices.
Fix this by detecting and not newly allocating empty strings and instead
using a one statically defined dmi_empty_string.
Also do not create a new struct dmi_device for each empty string - use
one statically define dmi_device with .name=dmi_empty_string and add
that to the dmi_devices list.
On x64 this should stop the OOM with same current size of DMI_MAX_DATA
and on x86 this should save a good amount of (27*65 bytes +
27*sizeof(struct dmi_device) bootmem.

use SWBA (software beacon alert) interrupts to keep track of the next beacon
time und check if a HW merge (automatic TSF update) has happened on every
received beacon with the same BSSID.
this is necessary because the atheros hardware will silently update the local
TSF in IBSS mode, but not its beacon timers. if the TSF is ahead of the beacon
timers no beacons are sent until the timers wrap around (typically after about
1 minute).
this solution is not very nice, since we have to look into every beacon, but
there is apparently no other way to detect HW merges.

This zeros out all microcode related memory before loading
the microcode.
This also fixes initialization of the MAC control register.
The _only_ place where we overwrite the contents of the MAC control
register is at the beginning of b43_chip_init().
All other places must do read() -> mask/set -> write() to not
overwrite existing bits.
This also adds a longer delay for waiting for the microcode
to initialize itself. It seems that the current timeout is sufficient
on all available devices, but there's no real reason why we shouldn't
wait for up to one second. Slow embedded devices might exist.

We are pleased to announce a new Gigabit Ethernet product and its
driver to the linux community. This product is the Intel(R) 82575
Gigabit Ethernet adapter family. Physical adapters will be available
to the public soon. These adapters come in 2- and 4-port versions
(copper PHY) currently. Other variants will be available later.
The 82575 chipset supports significantly different features that
warrant a new driver. The descriptor format is (just like the
ixgbe driver) different. The device can use multiple MSI-X vectors
and multiple queues for both send and receive. This allows us to
optimize some of the driver code specifically as well compared to
the e1000-supported devices.
This version of the igb driver no lnger uses fake netdevices and
incorporates napi_struct members for each ring to do the multi-
queue polling. multi-queue is enabled by default and the driver
supports NAPI mode only.
All the namespace collisions should be gone in this version too. The
register macro's have been condensed to improve readability.

conditions for the hardware rf_kill switch states during suspend and

rf_kill enable or disable; before resume we can have rf_kill enable or

This patch moves the firmware loading (read firmware from disk and load
it into the device SRAM) from pci_probe time to the first network
interface open time. There are two reasons for doing this:
1. To support kernel buildin iwlwifi drivers. Because kernel initializes
network devices subsystem before hard disk and SATA subsystem, it is
impossible to get the firmware image from hard disk in the PCI probe
handler. Thus delaying the firmware loading into the network
interface open time is the way to go. Note, we only read the firmware
image from hard disk the first time the interface is open. After this
is succeeded, we cache the firmware image into the host memory. This
is a performance gain when user open and close the interface multiple
times and is necessary for device suspend and resume.
2. For better power saving. When the iwlwifi modules are loaded (or
buildin the kernel) but the wireless network interface is not being
used, it is a good practice the wireless device consumes as less
power as possible. Unloading the firmware from the wireless device
and unregister the driver's interrupt handler in the network
interface close handler provides users a way to achieve this. User
space network configuration tools (i.e NetworkManager) can also
contribute here when it detects a wired cable is connected and
close the wireless interface automatically.
This patch also includes the pci_save/restore_state() fixed by Ian Schram
upon the first version.

The packet filter flags don't belong in the interface structure
because they are device based instead of interface based.
So move the filter fields out of struct interface and into rt2x00_dev.
Additionally we shouldn't change the filter based on the working

suspend & resume was broken since it called rt2x00mac_start()
and rt2x00mac_stop() which would fail to execute because the
DEVICE_PRESENT flag was not set.
Move the start and stop handlers into rt2x00lib.c which are called
from rt2x00mac_start() and rt2x00mac_stop() after they have checked
the DEVICE_PRESENT flag, while suspend and resume handlers can
directly call those functions.

These flags used to be fixed to one in rt2500pci_config_type, which
caused the beacon timer interrupt to fire. This would lead to
rt2x00lib_beacondone adding work which called
rt2x00lib_beacondone_scheduled which called ieee80211_beacon_get which
printed an error about not having any beacon data.
With this patch, these interrupts are only generated when the interface
is configured to send beacons.

Apparently it was possible that ieee80211_stop_queue() was not full while
NETDEV_TX_BUSY was being reported back. I think that is what causing the WARN_ON().
This moves all calls to ieee80211_stop_queue() in rt2x00mac.c where it is easier
to determine if the queue should be halted.

This adds a new Kconfig option for enabling probing of N-PHYs.
This option will be removed again once the stuff works.
For now it is to help in development. This way real users won't
execute the broken N-PHY codepaths, but the developers can easily
enable N-PHY stuff.
To enable N-PHY probing simply remove the BROKEN dependency
and enable the option in the kernel config.

Reviewing the semaphore usage I noticed these down_interruptible calls. Most
of these aren't returning anything, so a caller can't tell if the operation
completed or not. prism54_wpa_bss_ie_get() returns zero, but it's treated as
