"The big change here is the patchset by Alex Shi to use INVLPG to flush
only the affected pages when we only need to flush a small page range.
It also removes the special INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR interrupts (32
vectors!) and replace it with an ordinary IPI function call."

* 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/tlb: Fix build warning and crash when building for !SMP
x86/tlb: do flush_tlb_kernel_range by 'invlpg'
x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR
x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86

x86/tlb: add tlb_flushall_shift knob into debugfs

x86/tlb: fall back to flush all when meet a THP large page
x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range
x86/tlb_info: get last level TLB entry number of CPU
x86: Add read_mostly declaration/definition to variables from smp.h
x86: Define early read-mostly per-cpu macros
x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the
flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not
the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to
flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later
remain TLB lines accessing.
But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can
compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU.
So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at:
(512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) =
X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost)
Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries.
But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the
assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And
2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are
accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when
the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries.
Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any
suggestions are welcomed.
As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB
entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now.
My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70
percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing
performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel.

On SGI's UV2 the BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) driver can hang
under a heavy load. To cure this:
- Disable the UV2 extended status mode (see UV2_EXT_SHFT), as
this mode changes BAU behavior in more ways then just delivering
an extra bit of status. Revert status to just two meaningful bits,
like UV1.
- Use no IPI-style resets on UV2. Just give up the request for
whatever the reason it failed and let it be accomplished with
the legacy IPI method.
- Use no alternate sending descriptor (the former UV2 workaround
bcp->using_desc and handle_uv2_busy() stuff). Just disable the
use of the BAU for a period of time in favor of the legacy IPI
method when the h/w bug leaves a descriptor busy.
-- new tunable: giveup_limit determines the threshold at which a hub is
so plugged that it should do all requests with the legacy IPI method for a
period of time
-- generalize disable_for_congestion() (renamed disable_for_period()) for
use whenever a hub should avoid using the BAU for a period of time
Also:
- Fix find_another_by_swack(), which is part of the UV2 bug workaround
- Correct and clarify the statistics (new stats s_overipilimit, s_giveuplimit,
s_enters, s_ipifordisabled, s_plugged, s_congested)

The system may be booted with or without the nobau option.
Whether the system currently has the BAU off can be seen in
the /proc file -- normally with the baustats script.
Each cpu will have a 1 in the bauoff field if the BAU was turned
off, so baustats will give a count of cpus that have it off.

Correct the calculation of a destination timeout period, which
is used to distinguish between a destination timeout and the
situation where all the target software ack resources are full
and a request is returned immediately.
The problem is that integer arithmetic was overflowing, yielding
a very large result.
Without this fix destination timeouts are identified as resource
'plugged' events and an ipi method of resource releasing is
unnecessarily employed.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

This patch implements a workaround for a UV2 hardware bug.
The bug is a non-atomic update of a memory-mapped register. When
hardware message delivery and software message acknowledge occur
simultaneously the pending message acknowledge for the arriving
message may be lost. This causes the sender's message status to
stay busy.
Part of the workaround is to not acknowledge a completed message
until it is verified that no other message is actually using the
resource that is mistakenly recorded in the completed message.
Part of the workaround is to test for long elapsed time in such
a busy condition, then handle it by using a spare sending
descriptor. The stay-busy condition is eventually timed out by
hardware, and then the original sending descriptor can be
re-used. Most of that logic change is in keeping track of the
current descriptor and the state of the spares.
The occurrences of the workaround are added to the BAU
statistics.

This is a workaround for a UV2 hub bug that affects the format of system
global addresses.
The GRU API for UV2 was inadvertently broken by a hardware change. The
format of the physical address used for TLB dropins and for addresses used
with instructions running in unmapped mode has changed. This change was
not documented and became apparent only when diags failed running on
system simulators.
For UV1, TLB and GRU instruction physical addresses are identical to
socket physical addresses (although high NASID bits must be OR'ed into the
address).
For UV2, socket physical addresses need to be converted. The NODE portion
of the physical address needs to be shifted so that the low bit is in bit
39 or bit 40, depending on an MMR value.
It is not yet clear if this bug will be fixed in a silicon respin. If it
is fixed, the hub revision will be incremented & the workaround disabled.

SGI UV's uv_tlb.c driver has become rather hard to read, with overly large
functions, non-standard coding style and (way) too long variable, constant
and function names and non-obvious code flow sequences.
This patch improves the readability and maintainability of the driver
significantly, by doing the following strict code cleanups with no side
effects:
- Split long functions into shorter logical functions.
- Shortened some variable and structure member names.
- Added special functions for reads and writes of MMR regs with
very long names.
- Added the 'tunables' table to shortened tunables_write().
- Added the 'stat_description' table to shorten uv_ptc_proc_write().
- Pass fewer 'stat' arguments where it can be derived from the 'bcp'
argument.
- Function definitions consistent on one line, and inline in few (short) cases.
- Moved some small structures and an atomic inline function to the header file.
- Moved some local variables to the blocks where they are used.
- Updated the copyright date.
- Shortened uv_write_global_mmr64() etc. using some aliasing; no
line breaks. Renamed many uv_.. functions that are not exported.
- Aligned structure fields.
[ note that not all structures are aligned the same way though; I'd like
to keep the extensive commenting in some of them. ]
- Shortened some long structure names.
- Standard pass/fail exit from init_per_cpu()
- Vertical alignment for mass initializations.
- More separation between blocks of code.

blades into a larger coherent SSI.
For the most part, UV2 is compatible with UV1. The majority of
the changes are in the addresses of MMRs and in a few cases, the
contents of MMRs. These changes are the result in changes in the
system topology such as node configuration, processor types,
maximum nodes, physical address sizes, etc.

This is a fix for the SGI Altix-UV Broadcast Assist Unit code,
which is used for TLB flushing.
Certain hardware configurations (that customers are ordering)
cause nasids (numa address space id's) to be non-consecutive.
Specifically, once you have more than 4 blades in a IRU
(Individual Rack Unit - or 1/2 rack) but less than the maximum
of 16, the nasid numbering becomes non-consecutive. This
currently results in a 'catastrophic error' (CATERR) detected by
the firmware during OS boot. The BAU is generating an 'INTD'
request that is targeting a non-existent nasid value. Such
configurations may also occur when a blade is configured off
because of hardware errors. (There is one UV hub per blade.)
This patch is required to support such configurations.
The problem with the tlb_uv.c code is that is using the
consecutive hub numbers as indices to the BAU distribution bit
map. These are simply the ordinal position of the hub or blade
within its partition. It should be using physical node numbers
(pnodes), which correspond to the physical nasid values. Use of
the hub number only works as long as the nasids in the partition
are consecutive and increase with a stride of 1.
This patch changes the index to be the pnode number, thus
allowing nasids to be non-consecutive.
It also provides a table in local memory for each cpu to
translate target cpu number to target pnode and nasid.
And it improves naming to properly reflect 'node' and 'uvhub'
versus 'nasid'.
