- First we introduced no_broadcast option

- x86_64 solved it by using physical flat mode (same as bigsmp on i386)
since this will not use broadcast shortcuts for IPI.
- We switched to use bigsmp on i386 so that we can have same handling as
x86_64, but apparently this caused an error message, if kernel was
compiled without X86_GENERICARCH, X86_BIGSMP. The message "You have >8
CPUS..." which was bogus and misleading, and only indicated one of the

So we do not switch to automatic bigsmp for HOTPLUG_CPU support in i386
until the other related config dependencies for SMP_SUSPEND etc can be done
right.

[PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepages
At present, ARCH=powerpc kernels can waste considerable space in
pagetables when making large hugepage mappings. Hugepage PTEs go in
PMD pages, but each PMD page maps 256M and so contains only 16
hugepage PTEs (128 bytes of data), but takes up a 1024 byte
allocation. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES enabled (64k base page size),
the situation is worse. Now hugepage PTEs are at the PTE page level
(also mapping 256M), so we store 16 hugepage PTEs in a 64k allocation.
The PowerPC MMU already means that any 256M region is either all
hugepage, or all normal pages. Thus, with some care, we can use a
different allocation for the hugepage PTE tables and only allocate the
128 bytes necessary.

This is particularly troublesome for dump analysis, as the stack traceback

(A similar convention is probably needed throughout the kernel to make
kernel multi-page allocations detectable for dumping)
Multi-page kernel allocations are represented by the single page structure
associated with the first page of the allocation. The page structures

If the dumper is selecting only kernel pages it has no way to identify
any but the first page of the allocation.

so use the same fix for both. Turns out pmd_clear had it as well, but pgds
are not affected.
The problem is rather intricate. Page table entries in PAE mode are 64-bits
wide, but the only atomic 8-byte write operation available in 32-bit mode is
cmpxchg8b, which is expensive (at least on P4), and thus avoided. But it can
happen that the processor may prefetch entries into the TLB in the middle of an
operation which clears a page table entry. So one must always clear the P-bit
in the low word of the page table entry first when clearing it.
Since the sequence *ptep = __pte(0) leaves the order of the write dependent on
the compiler, it must be coded explicitly as a clear of the low word followed
by a clear of the high word. Further, there must be a write memory barrier
here to enforce proper ordering by the compiler (and, in the future, by the
processor as well).
On > 4GB memory machines, the implementation of pte_clear for PAE was clearly
deficient, as it could leave virtual mappings of physical memory above 4GB
aliased to memory below 4GB in the TLB. The implementation of
ptep_get_and_clear_full has a similar bug, although not nearly as likely to
occur, since the mappings being cleared are in the process of being destroyed,
and should never be dereferenced again.
But, as luck would have it, it is possible to trigger bugs even without ever
dereferencing these bogus TLB mappings, even if the clear is followed fairly
soon after with a TLB flush or invalidation. The problem is that memory above
4GB may now be aliased into the first 4GB of memory, and in fact, may hit a
region of memory with non-memory semantics. These regions include AGP and PCI
space. As such, these memory regions are not cached by the processor. This
introduces the bug.
The processor can speculate memory operations, including memory writes, as long
as they are committed with the proper ordering. Speculating a memory write to
a linear address that has a bogus TLB mapping is possible. Normally, the
speculation is harmless. But for cached memory, it does leave the falsely
speculated cacheline unmodified, but in a dirty state. This cache line will be
eventually written back. If this cacheline happens to intersect a region of
memory that is not protected by the cache coherency protocol, it can corrupt
data in I/O memory, which is generally a very bad thing to do, and can cause
total system failure or just plain undefined behavior.
These bugs are extremely unlikely, but the severity is of such magnitude, and
the fix so simple that I think fixing them immediately is justified. Also,
they are nearly impossible to debug.

This patch (as671) fixes a bug in the error pathway for the net2280

[MIPS] Fix branch emulation for floating-point exceptions.
In the branch emulation for floating-point exceptions, __compute_return_epc
must determine for bc1f et al which condition code bit to test. This is
based on bits <4:2> of the rt field. The switch statement to distinguish
bc1f et al needs to use only the two low bits of rt, but the old code tests
on the whole rt field. This patch masks off the proper bits.
