Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is another big update. Main changes are:

   - lots of x86 system call (and other traps/exceptions) entry code
     enhancements.  In particular the complex parts of the 64-bit entry
     code have been migrated to C code as well, and a number of dusty
     corners have been refreshed.  (Andy Lutomirski)

   - vDSO special mapping robustification and general cleanups (Andy
     Lutomirski)

   - cpufeature refactoring, cleanups and speedups (Borislav Petkov)

   - lots of other changes ..."

x86/cpufeature: Carve out X86_FEATURE_*

2016-01-30T10:22:17+00:00

Move them to a separate header and have the following
dependency:

  x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h

This makes it easier to use the header in asm code and not
include the whole cpufeature.h and add guards for asm.

x86/cpufeature: Remove unused and seldomly used cpu_has_xx macros

2015-12-19T10:49:55+00:00

Those are stupid and code should use static_cpu_has_safe() or
boot_cpu_has() instead. Kill the least used and unused ones.

The remaining ones need more careful inspection before a conversion can
happen. On the TODO.

x86: Kill CONFIG_X86_HT

2015-06-07T13:33:44+00:00

In talking to Aravind recently about making certain AMD topology
attributes available to the MCE injection module, it seemed like
that CONFIG_X86_HT thing is more or less superfluous. It is
def_bool y, depends on SMP and gets enabled in the majority of
.configs - distro and otherwise - out there.

So let's kill it and make code behind it depend directly on SMP.

x86/cpu/cacheinfo: Fix cache_get_priv_group() for Intel processors

2015-03-23T09:22:38+00:00

The private pointer provided by the cacheinfo code is used to implement
the AMD L3 cache-specific attributes using a pointer to the northbridge
descriptor. It is needed for performing L3-specific operations and for
that we need a couple of PCI devices and other service information, all
contained in the northbridge descriptor.

This results in failure of cacheinfo setup as shown below as
cache_get_priv_group() returns the uninitialised private attributes which
are not valid for Intel processors.

This patch fixes the issue by checking if the L3 cache indices are
populated correctly (AMD-specific) before initializing the private
attributes.

x86/cacheinfo: Move cacheinfo sysfs code to generic infrastructure

2015-03-09T08:32:24+00:00

This patch removes the redundant sysfs cacheinfo code by reusing
the newly introduced generic cacheinfo infrastructure through the
commit

  246246cbde5e ("drivers: base: support cpu cache information
		 interface to userspace via sysfs")

The private pointer provided by the cacheinfo is used to implement
the AMD L3 cache-specific attributes.

Note that with v4.0-rc1, commit

  513e3d2d11c9 ("cpumask: always use nr_cpu_ids in formatting and parsing
		 functions")

in particular changes from long format to shorter one for all cpumasks
sysfs entries. As the consequence of the same, even the shared_cpu_map
in the cacheinfo sysfs was also changed.

This patch neither alters any existing sysfs entries nor their
formating, however since the generic cacheinfo has switched to use the
device attributes instead of the traditional raw kobjects, a directory
named "power" along with its standard attributes are added similar to
any other device.

x86: use %*pb[l] to print bitmaps including cpumasks and nodemasks

2015-02-14T05:21:37+00:00

printk and friends can now format bitmaps using '%*pb[l]'.  cpumask
and nodemask also provide cpumask_pr_args() and nodemask_pr_args()
respectively which can be used to generate the two printf arguments
necessary to format the specified cpu/nodemask.

* Unnecessary buffer size calculation and condition on the lenght
  removed from intel_cacheinfo.c::show_shared_cpu_map_func().

* uv_nmi_nr_cpus_pr() got overly smart and implemented "..."
  abbreviation if the output stretched over the predefined 1024 byte
  buffer.  Replaced with plain printk.
