The comment is ancient, it dates to the time when only AMD's
x86_64 implementation existed. AMD wasn't (and still isn't)
supporting SYSENTER, so these writes were "just in case" back
then.
This has changed: Intel's x86_64 appeared, and Intel does
support SYSENTER in long mode. "Some future 64-bit CPU" is here
already.
The code may appear "buggy" for AMD as it stands, since
MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_EIP is only 32-bit for AMD CPUs. Writing a
kernel function's address to it would drop high bits. Subsequent
use of this MSR for branch via SYSENTER seem to allow user to
transition to CPL0 while executing his code. Scary, eh?
Explain why that is not a bug: because SYSENTER insn would not
work on AMD CPU.

PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) was set up in a way where it points
five stack slots below the top of stack.
Presumably, it was done to avoid one "sub $5*8,%rsp"
in syscall/sysenter code paths, where iret frame needs to be
created by hand.
Ironically, none of them benefits from this optimization,
since all of them need to allocate additional data on stack
(struct pt_regs), so they still have to perform subtraction.
This patch eliminates KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET.
PER_CPU_VAR(kernel_stack) now points directly to top of stack.
pt_regs allocations are adjusted to allocate iret frame as well.
Hopefully we can merge it later with 32-bit specific
PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_current_top_of_stack) variable...
Net result in generated code is that constants in several insns
are changed.
This change is necessary for changing struct pt_regs creation
in SYSCALL64 code path from MOV to PUSH instructions.

Having syscall32/sysenter32 initialization in a separate tiny
function, called from within a function that is already syscall
init specific, serves no real purpose.
Its existense also caused an unintended effect of having
wrmsrl(MSR_CSTAR) performed twice: once we set it to a dummy
function returning -ENOSYS, and immediately after
(if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION), we set it to point to the proper
syscall32 entry point, ia32_cstar_target.

Before the patch, the 'tss_struct::stack' field was not referenced anywhere.
It was used only to set SYSENTER's stack to point after the last byte
of tss_struct, thus the trailing field, stack[64], was used.
But grep would not know it. You can comment it out, compile,
and kernel will even run until an unlucky NMI corrupts
io_bitmap[] (which is also not easily detectable).
This patch changes code so that the purpose and usage of this
field is not mysterious anymore, and can be easily grepped for.
This does change generated code, for a subtle reason:
since tss_struct is ____cacheline_aligned, there happens to be
5 longs of padding at the end. Old code was using the padding
too; new code will strictly use it only for SYSENTER_stack[].

I broke 32-bit kernels. The implementation of sp0 was correct
as far as I can tell, but sp0 was much weirder on x86_32 than I
realized. It has the following issues:
- Init's sp0 is inconsistent with everything else's: non-init tasks
are offset by 8 bytes. (I have no idea why, and the comment is unhelpful.)
- vm86 does crazy things to sp0.
Fix it up by replacing this_cpu_sp0() with
current_top_of_stack() and using a new percpu variable to track
the top of the stack on x86_32.

Commit:
1e02ce4ccc ("x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4")
added a shadow CR4 such that reads and writes that do not
modify the CR4 execute much faster than always reading the
register itself.
The change modified cpu_init() in common.c, so that the
shadow CR4 gets initialized before anything uses it.
Unfortunately, there's two cpu_init()s in common.c. There's
one for 64-bit and one for 32-bit. The commit only added
the shadow init to the 64-bit path, but the 32-bit path
needs the init too.

This is based on a patch originally by hpa.
With the current improvements to the alternatives, we can simply use %P1
as a mem8 operand constraint and rely on the toolchain to generate the
proper instruction sizes. For example, on 32-bit, where we use an empty
old instruction we get:
apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c104648b, len: 4), repl: (c195566c, len: 4)
c104648b: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90
c195566c: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 4b 5c
...
apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c18e09b4, len: 3), repl: (c1955948, len: 3)
c18e09b4: alt_insn: 90 90 90
c1955948: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 08
...
apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c1190cf9, len: 7), repl: (c1955a79, len: 7)
c1190cf9: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90 90 90 90
c1955a79: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 0d a0 d4 85 c1
all with the proper padding done depending on the size of the
replacement instruction the compiler generates.

I'm getting complaints from validation teams that have updated their
Linux kernels from ancient versions to current. They don't see the
error logs they expect. I tell the to unload any EDAC drivers[1], and
things start working again. The problem is that we short-circuit
the logging process if any function on the decoder chain claims to
have dealt with the problem:
ret = atomic_notifier_call_chain(&x86_mce_decoder_chain, 0, m);
if (ret == NOTIFY_STOP)
return;
The logic we used when we added this code was that we did not want
to confuse users with double reports of the same error.
But it turns out users are not confused - they are upset that they
don't see a log where their tools used to find a log.
I could also get into a long description of how the consumer of this
log does more than just decode model specific details of the error.
It keeps counts, tracks thresholds, takes actions and runs scripts
that can alert administrators to problems.
[1] We've recently compounded the problem because the acpi_extlog
driver also registers for this notifier and also returns NOTIFY_STOP.

While perfmon2 is a sufficiently evil library (it pokes MSRs
directly) that breaking it is fair game, it's still useful, so we
might as well try to support it. This allows users to write 2 to
/sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc to disable all rdpmc protection so that hack
like perfmon2 can continue to work.
At some point, if perf_event becomes fast enough to replace
perfmon2, then this can go.

We currently allow any process to use rdpmc. This significantly
weakens the protection offered by PR_TSC_DISABLED, and it could be
helpful to users attempting to exploit timing attacks.
Since we can't enable access to individual counters, use a very
coarse heuristic to limit access to rdpmc: allow access only when
a perf_event is mmapped. This protects seccomp sandboxes.
There is plenty of room to further tighen these restrictions. For
example, this allows rdpmc for any x86_pmu event, but it's only
useful for self-monitoring tasks.
As a side effect, cap_user_rdpmc will now be false for AMD uncore
events. This isn't a real regression, since .event_idx is disabled
for these events anyway for the time being. Whenever that gets
re-added, the cap_user_rdpmc code can be adjusted or refactored
accordingly.

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4.
CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a
per-cpu variable.
To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to
cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest
users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and
__switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context
switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

CR4 manipulation was split, seemingly at random, between direct
(write_cr4) and using a helper (set/clear_in_cr4). Unfortunately,
the set_in_cr4 and clear_in_cr4 helpers also poke at the boot code,
which only a small subset of users actually wanted.
This patch replaces all cr4 access in functions that don't leave cr4
exactly the way they found it with new helpers cr4_set_bits,
cr4_clear_bits, and cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot.

Commits 65cef1311d ("x86, microcode: Add a disable chicken bit") and
a18a0f6850 ("x86, microcode: Don't initialize microcode code on
paravirt") allow microcode driver skip initialization when microcode
loading is not permitted.
However, they don't prevent the driver from being loaded since the
init code returns 0. If at some point later the driver gets unloaded
this will result in an oops while trying to deregister the (never
registered) device.
To avoid this, make init code return an error on paravirt or when
microcode loading is disabled. The driver will then never be loaded.

cycles:p and cycles:pp do not work on SLM since commit:
86a04461a9 ("perf/x86: Revamp PEBS event selection")
UOPS_RETIRED.ALL is not a PEBS capable event, so it should not be used
to count cycle number.
Actually SLM calls intel_pebs_aliases_core2() which uses INST_RETIRED.ANY_P
to count the number of cycles. It's a PEBS capable event. But inv and
cmask must be set to count cycles.
Considering SLM allows all events as PEBS with no flags, only
INST_RETIRED.ANY_P, inv=1, cmask=16 needs to handled specially.

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
sysfs_show() routine for the RAPL PMU.
The current code was wrongly relying on the EVENT_ATTR_STR()
macro which uses the events_sysfs_show() function in the x86
PMU code. That function itself was relying on the x86_pmu data
structure. Yet RAPL and the core PMU (x86_pmu) have nothing to
do with each other. They should therefore not interact with
each other.
The x86_pmu structure is initialized at boot time based on
the host CPU model. When the host CPU is not supported, the
x86_pmu remains uninitialized and some of the callbacks it
contains are NULL.
The false dependency with x86_pmu could potentially cause crashes
in case the x86_pmu is not initialized while the RAPL PMU is. This
may, for instance, be the case in virtualized environments.
This patch fixes the problem by using a private sysfs_show()
routine for exporting the RAPL PMU events.

dmesg (from util-linux) currently has two methods for reading the kernel
message ring buffer: /dev/kmsg and syslog(2). Since kernel 3.5.0 kmsg
has been the default, which escapes control characters (e.g. new lines)
before they are shown.
This change means that when dmesg is using /dev/kmsg, a 2 line printk
makes the output messy, because the second line does not get a
timestamp.
For example:
