Tobias Doerffel 366d19e181 x86: add specific support for Intel Atom architecture
Add another option when selecting CPU family so the kernel can be
optimized for Intel Atom CPUs. If GCC supports tuning options for
Intel Atom they will be used.

Ingo Molnar d45b41ae8d x86: disable X86_PTRACE_BTS for now
Oleg Nesterov found a couple of races in the ptrace-bts code
and fixes are queued up for it but they did not get ready in time
for the merge window. We'll merge them in v2.6.31 - until then
mark the feature as CONFIG_BROKEN. There's no user-space yet
making use of this so it's not a big issue.

The CONFIG_X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_BYTES symbol is only defined on 64-bit,

Ingo Molnar 0a2a18b721 x86: change the default cache size to 64 bytes
Right now the generic cacheline size is 128 bytes - that is wasteful
when structures are aligned, as all modern x86 CPUs have an (effective)
cacheline sizes of 64 bytes.

It was set to 128 bytes due to some cacheline aliasing problems on
older P4 systems, but those are many years old and we dont optimize
for them anymore. (They'll still get the 128 bytes cacheline size if
the kernel is specifically built for Pentium 4)

Markus Metzger 1e9b51c283 x86, bts, ftrace: a BTS ftrace plug-in prototype
Impact: add new ftrace plugin

A prototype for a BTS ftrace plug-in.

The tracer collects branch trace in a cyclic buffer for each cpu.

The tracer is not configurable and the trace for each snapshot is
appended when doing cat /debug/tracing/trace.

This is a proof of concept that will be extended with future patches
to become a (hopefully) useful tool.

Linus Torvalds 14469a8dd2 x86: disable static NOPLs on 32 bits
On 32-bit, at least the generic nops are fairly reasonable, but the
default nops for 64-bit really look pretty sad, and the P6 nops really do
look better.

So I would suggest perhaps moving the static P6 nop selection into the
CONFIG_X86_64 thing.

The alternative is to just get rid of that static nop selection, and just
have two cases: 32-bit and 64-bit, and just pick obviously safe cases for
them.

Thomas Petazzoni 8d02c2110b x86: configuration options to compile out x86 CPU support code
This patch adds some configuration options that allow to compile out
CPU vendor-specific code in x86 kernels (in arch/x86/kernel/cpu). The
new configuration options are only visible when CONFIG_EMBEDDED is
selected, as they are mostly interesting for space savings reasons.

An example of size saving, on x86 with only Intel CPU support:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1125479	 118760	 212992	1457231	 163c4f	vmlinux.old
1121355	 116536	 212992	1450883	 162383	vmlinux
  -4124   -2224       0   -6348   -18CC +/-

However, I'm not exactly sure that the Kconfig wording is correct with
regard to !64BIT / 64BIT.

Maciej W. Rozycki 593f4a788e x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternatives
Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum
for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time.  Remove the
X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to
apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the
ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum.  Remove
apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed.
Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends.  The use of
ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have
used it for readability's sake.

I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead
and here it is.  Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested
with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP
"feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as
expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days).
Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs
it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I
have disregarded it.

I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated
and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I
have left changes to them out.  The option will get removed from them at
the next run.

Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some
stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that
intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will
everywhere.

Markus Metzger 93fa7636df x86, ptrace: PEBS support
Polish the ds.h interface and add support for PEBS.

Ds.c is meant to be the resource allocator for per-thread and per-cpu
BTS and PEBS recording.
It is used by ptrace/utrace to provide execution tracing of debugged tasks.
It will be used by profilers (e.g. perfmon2).
It may be used by kernel debuggers to provide a kernel execution trace.

Changes in detail:
- guard DS and ptrace by CONFIG macros
- separate DS and BTS more clearly
- simplify field accesses
- add functions to manage PEBS buffers
- add simple protection/allocation mechanism
- added support for Atom

Opens:
- buffer overflow handling
  Currently, only circular buffers are supported. This is all we need
  for debugging. Profilers would want an overflow notification.
  This is planned to be added when perfmon2 is made to use the ds.h
  interface.
- utrace intermediate layer

Alexander van Heukelum 19870def58 x86, bitops: select the generic bitmap search functions
Introduce GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT and GENERIC_FIND_NEXT_BIT in
lib/Kconfig, defaulting to off. An arch that wants to use the
generic implementation now only has to use a select statement
to include them.

I added an always-y option (X86_CPU) to arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu
and used that to select the generic search functions. This
way ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386 automatically picks up the change
too, and arch/um/Kconfig.i386 can therefore be simplified a
bit. ARCH=um SUBARCH=x86_64 does things differently, but
still compiles fine. It seems that a "def_bool y" always
wins over a "def_bool n"?

For ffs and fls, x86_64 unconditionally used the cmov
instruction and i386 unconditionally used a conditional
branch over a mov instruction. In the current patch I
chose to select the version based on the availability
of the cmov instruction instead. A small detail here is
that x86_64 did not previously set CONFIG_X86_CMOV=y.

Dmitri Vorobiev f7f17a67c5 x86: remove NexGen support
It is claimed that NexGen CPUs were never shipped:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/20/179

Also, the kernel support for these chips has been broken for
a long time, the code intended to support NexGen thereby being
essentially dead.

As an outcome of the discussion that can be found using the URL
above, this patch removes the NexGen support altogether.

The changes in this patch survived a defconfig build for i386, a
couple of successful randconfig builds, as well as a runtime test,
which consisted in booting a 32-bit x86 box up to the shell prompt.
