MN10300: Introduce a general config option for kernel debugger hooks
Introduce a general config option for kernel debugger hooks so that both

MN10300: The icache invalidate functions should disable the icache first
The icache invalidate functions should disable the icache on AM33 and wait for
it to quiesce before attempting to invalidate it, and should then wait for it
to quiesce again before reenabling it, but on AM34 they should invalidate
directly. The same goes for the dcache invalidation, but this isn't used much.
Whilst we're at it, this can be wrapped in assembler macros to remove duplicate
code.
The AM33 manual states that:
An operation that invalidates the cache, switches the writing mode, or
changes the way mode must be performed after disabling the cache,
checking the busy bit, and confirming that the cache is not in
operation.
for the dcache [sec 2.8.3.2.1]. This is not stated so for the icache [sec
2.8.3.1.1] but the example code there suggests that it is.
Whilst the AM34 manual states that the cache must be disabled for both the
icache [sec 1.8.3.2.1] and the dcache [sec 1.8.3.2.1], the Panasonic hardware
engineers say the manual is wrong and that disabling the caches for
invalidation is wrong.
Furthermore, they say that disabling the caches on the AM34 whilst running an
SMP kernel can lead to incoherency between the various CPU caches and should
thus be avoided.

MN10300: gdbstub: Restrict single-stepping to non-preemptable non-SMP configs
Restrict single-stepping through the kernel using gdbstub to non-preemptable
non-SMP configs as gdbstub has to do software single-stepping by means of
temporary breakpoints. Hardware single-stepping is unavailable as Panasonic
have not sufficiently documented the interface to it.
Software single-stepping through preemptable or SMP kernels runs into problems
as it makes it much more likely that the wrong thread will hit the temporary
breakpoints. It seems impractical to work around the problem for the most
part. It could be possible to make a UP preemptable kernel switch temporary
breakpoints in and out in switch_to().

smp_call_function_many: handle concurrent clearing of mask
Mike Galbraith reported finding a lockup ("perma-spin bug") where the
cpumask passed to smp_call_function_many was cleared by other cpu(s)
while a cpu was preparing its call_data block, resulting in no cpu to
clear the last ref and unlock the block.
Having cpus clear their bit asynchronously could be useful on a mask of
cpus that might have a translation context, or cpus that need a push to
complete an rcu window.
Instead of adding a BUG_ON and requiring yet another cpumask copy, just
detect the race and handle it.
Note: arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask must still handle an empty
cpumask because the data block is globally visible before the that arch
callback is made. And (obviously) there are no guarantees to which cpus
are notified if the mask is changed during the call; only cpus that were
online and had their mask bit set during the whole call are guaranteed
to be called.

call_function_many: add missing ordering
Paul McKenney's review pointed out two problems with the barriers in the
2.6.38 update to the smp call function many code.
First, a barrier that would force the func and info members of data to
be visible before their consumption in the interrupt handler was
missing. This can be solved by adding a smp_wmb between setting the
func and info members and setting setting the cpumask; this will pair
with the existing and required smp_rmb ordering the cpumask read before
the read of refs. This placement avoids the need a second smp_rmb in
the interrupt handler which would be executed on each of the N cpus
executing the call request. (I was thinking this barrier was present
but was not).
Second, the previous write to refs (establishing the zero that we the
interrupt handler was testing from all cpus) was performed by a third
party cpu. This would invoke transitivity which, as a recient or
concurrent addition to memory-barriers.txt now explicitly states, would
require a full smp_mb().
However, we know the cpumask will only be set by one cpu (the data
owner) and any preivous iteration of the mask would have cleared by the
reading cpu. By redundantly writing refs to 0 on the owning cpu before
the smp_wmb, the write to refs will follow the same path as the writes
that set the cpumask, which in turn allows us to keep the barrier in the
interrupt handler a smp_rmb instead of promoting it to a smp_mb (which
will be be executed by N cpus for each of the possible M elements on the
list).
I moved and expanded the comment about our (ab)use of the rcu list
primitives for the concurrent walk earlier into this function. I
considered moving the first two paragraphs to the queue list head and
lock, but felt it would have been too disconected from the code.

call_function_many: fix list delete vs add race
Peter pointed out there was nothing preventing the list_del_rcu in
smp_call_function_interrupt from running before the list_add_rcu in
smp_call_function_many.
Fix this by not setting refs until we have gotten the lock for the list.
Take advantage of the wmb in list_add_rcu to save an explicit additional
one.
I tried to force this race with a udelay before the lock & list_add and
by mixing all 64 online cpus with just 3 random cpus in the mask, but
was unsuccessful. Still, inspection shows a valid race, and the fix is
a extension of the existing protection window in the current code.

KVM: SVM: check for progress after IRET interception
When we enable an NMI window, we ask for an IRET intercept, since
the IRET re-enables NMIs. However, the IRET intercept happens before
the instruction executes, while the NMI window architecturally opens
afterwards.
To compensate for this mismatch, we only open the NMI window in the
following exit, assuming that the IRET has by then executed; however,
this assumption is not always correct; we may exit due to a host interrupt
or page fault, without having executed the instruction.
Fix by checking for forward progress by recording and comparing the IRET's
rip. This is somewhat of a hack, since an unchaging rip does not mean that
no forward progress has been made, but is the simplest fix for now.

The interrupt injection logic looks something like

inject nmi
if an nmi is pending
request exit on nmi window
the problem is that "nmi is pending" can be set asynchronously by
the PIT; if it happens to fire between the two if statements, we
will request an nmi window even though nmi injection is allowed. On
SVM, this has disasterous results, since it causes eflags.TF to be
set in random guest code.
The fix is simple; make nmi_pending synchronous using the standard

KVM: x86: handle guest access to BBL_CR_CTL3 MSR
A correction to Intel cpu model CPUID data (patch queued)
caused winxp to BSOD when booted with a Penryn model.
This was traced to the CPUID "model" field correction from
6 -> 23 (as is proper for a Penryn class of cpu). Only in
this case does the problem surface.
The cause for this failure is winxp accessing the BBL_CR_CTL3
MSR which is unsupported by current kvm, appears to be a
legacy MSR not fully characterized yet existing in current
silicon, and is apparently carried forward in MSR space to
accommodate vintage code as here. It is not yet conclusive
whether this MSR implements any of its legacy functionality
or is just an ornamental dud for compatibility. While I
found no silicon version specific documentation link to
this MSR, a general description exists in Intel's developer's
reference which agrees with the functional behavior of
other bootloader/kernel code I've examined accessing
BBL_CR_CTL3. Regrettably winxp appears to be setting bit #19
called out as "reserved" in the above document.
So to minimally accommodate this MSR, kvm msr get will provide
the equivalent mock data and kvm msr write will simply toss the
guest passed data without interpretation. While this treatment
of BBL_CR_CTL3 addresses the immediate problem, the approach may
be modified pending clarification from Intel.
