* x86: fdiv bug detection fixKrzysztof Helt2008-07-311-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fdiv detection code writes s32 integer into the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug. However, the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug is only char (s8) field so the detection overwrites already set fields for other bugs, e.g. the f00f bug field. Use local s32 variable to receive result. This is a partial fix to Bugzilla #9928 - fixes wrong information about the f00f bug (tested) and probably for coma bug (I have no cpu to test this).

* x86: APIC: remove apic_write_around(); use alternativesMaciej W. Rozycki2008-07-181-22/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix booting pentium+ with dodgy TSCRusty Russell2008-04-061-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | We handle a broken tsc these days, so no need to panic. We clear the TSC bit when tsc_init decides it's unreliable (eg. under lguest w/ bad host TSC), leading to bogus panic.

* Delete filenames in comments.Dave Jones2007-10-131-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the x86 merge, lots of files that referenced their own filenames are no longer correct. Rather than keep them up to date, just delete them, as they add no real value. Additionally: - fix up comment formatting in scx200_32.c - Remove a credit from myself in setup_64.c from a time when we had no SCM - remove longwinded history from tsc_32.c which can be figured out from git.
