<content type='text'>
In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set -&gt;min_delta_ticks and
-&gt;max_delta_ticks rather than -&gt;min_delta_ns and -&gt;max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.

Make the x86 arch's apic clockevent driver initialize these fields
properly.

This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) -&gt;min_delta_ns
and -&gt;max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of -&gt;min_delta_ns and -&gt;max_delta_ns from this
driver.

The calculation of the global physical address (GPA) on UV4 is
incorrect.  The gnode_extra/upper global offset should only be
applied for fixed address space systems (UV1..3).

The following commits:

  f7c28833c2 ("x86/acpi: Enable acpi to register all possible cpus at
boot time") and 8f54969dc8 ("x86/acpi: Introduce persistent storage
for cpuid &lt;-&gt; apicid mapping")

... registered all the possible CPUs at boot time via ACPI tables to
make the mapping of cpuid &lt;-&gt; apicid fixed. Both enabled and disabled
CPUs could have a logical CPU ID after boot time.

But, ACPI tables are unreliable. the number amd order of Local APIC
entries which depends on the firmware is often inconsistent with the
physical devices. Even if they are consistent, The disabled CPUs which
take up some logical CPU IDs will also make the order discontinuous.

Revert the part of disabled CPUs registration, keep the allocation
logic of logical CPU IDs and also keep some code location changes.

for cpuid &lt;-&gt; apicid mapping")

... registered all the possible CPUs at boot time via ACPI tables to
make the mapping of cpuid &lt;-&gt; apicid fixed. Both enabled and disabled
CPUs could have a logical CPU ID after boot time.

But, ACPI tables are unreliable. the number amd order of Local APIC
entries which depends on the firmware is often inconsistent with the
physical devices. Even if they are consistent, The disabled CPUs which
take up some logical CPU IDs will also make the order discontinuous.

Revert the part of disabled CPUs registration, keep the allocation
logic of logical CPU IDs and also keep some code location changes.

The following commit:

  2e63ad4bd5dd ("x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping if ioapic is disabled")

... added a check for skipped IO-APIC setup to enable_IR_x2apic(), but this
check is also duplicated in try_to_enable_IR() - and it will never succeed in
calling irq_remapping_enable().

Remove the whole irq_remapping_enable() complication: if the IO-APIC is
disabled we cannot enable IRQ remapping.

<title>x86/apic: Fix a warning message in logical CPU IDs allocation</title>

The current warning message in allocate_logical_cpuid() is somewhat confusing:

  Only 1 processors supported.Processor 2/0x2 and the rest are ignored.

As it might imply that there's only one CPU in the system - while what we ran
into here is a kernel limitation.

Fix the warning message to clarify all that:

  APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 2 reached. Processor 2/0x2 and the rest are ignored.

( Also update the error return from -1 to -EINVAL, which is the more
  canonical return value. )
