In commit 6290602709 ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are
waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer
unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps
performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines
where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot.
However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit"
sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be,
because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that
just got updated atomically.
On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial
to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another
atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic
operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The
atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed,
not the value of an unrelated bit.
On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use
"xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other
bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even
simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock
bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state
of the unrelated bit #7.
So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear
the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures
with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit
doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too.
This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids
the costly stall at page unlock time.
The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and
specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't
love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the
name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by
trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some
generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit.
So this introduces the new architecture primitive
clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte();
and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic
non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)"
combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do
better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for
example, but some other architectures may not even care.
All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is
just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in
the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad.
Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just
over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to
0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be.
(The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is
likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses
to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed
by Nick's earlier commit).

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
"This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
partitioning mechanism.
The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
odd as well.
We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
per package nature of this mechanism.
In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
combinations of the hardware can be utilized.
There are two ways of associating a cache partition:
- Task
A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
partition associated to the group.
- CPU
All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
which the CPU they are running on is associated with.
That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.
The main expected user sare:
- Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
the cash w/o disturbing others
- Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.
- Latency sensitive enterprise workloads
- In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
channel attacks"
[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
had more time.
But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
_so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will
break ]

Jiri reported the overlap scheduling exceeding its max stack.
Looking at the constraint that triggered this, it turns out the
overlap marker isn't needed.
The comment with EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP states: "This is the case if
the counter mask of such an event is not a subset of any other counter
mask of a constraint with an equal or higher weight".
Esp. that latter part is of interest here I think, our overlapping mask
is 0x0e, that has 3 bits set and is the highest weight mask in on the
PMU, therefore it will be placed last. Can we still create a scenario
where we would need to rewind that?
The scenario for AMD Fam15h is we're having masks like:
0x3F -- 111111
0x38 -- 111000
0x07 -- 000111
0x09 -- 001001
And we mark 0x09 as overlapping, because it is not a direct subset of
0x38 or 0x07 and has less weight than either of those. This means we'll
first try and place the 0x09 event, then try and place 0x38/0x07 events.
Now imagine we have:
3 * 0x07 + 0x09
and the initial pick for the 0x09 event is counter 0, then we'll fail to
place all 0x07 events. So we'll pop back, try counter 4 for the 0x09
event, and then re-try all 0x07 events, which will now work.
The masks on the PMU in question are:
0x01 - 0001
0x03 - 0011
0x0e - 1110
0x0c - 1100
But since all the masks that have overlap (0xe -> {0xc,0x3}) and (0x3 ->
0x1) are of heavier weight, it should all work out.

This patch solves a race condition between PEBS and the PMU handler.
In case multiple PEBS events are sampled at the same time,
it is possible to have GLOBAL_STATUS bit 62 set indicating
PEBS buffer overflow and also seeing at most 3 PEBS counters
having their bits set in the status register. This is a sign
that there was at least one PEBS record pending at the time
of the PMU interrupt. PEBS counters must only be processed
via the drain_pebs() calls, and not via the regular sample
processing loop coming after that the function, otherwise
phony regular samples may be generated in the sampling buffer
not marked with the EXACT tag.
Another possibility is to have one PEBS event and at least
one non-PEBS event whic hoverflows while PEBS has armed. In this
case, bit 62 of GLOBAL_STATUS will not be set, yet the overflow
status bit for the PEBS counter will be on Skylake.
To avoid this problem, we systematically ignore the PEBS-enabled
counters from the GLOBAL_STATUS mask and we always process PEBS
events via drain_pebs().
The problem manifested itself by having non-exact samples when
sampling only PEBS events, i.e., the PERF_SAMPLE_RECORD would
not have the EXACT flag set.
Note that this problem is only present on Skylake processor.
This fix is harmless on older processors.

When relocating the p2m, take special care not to relocate it so
that is overlaps with the current location of the p2m/initrd. This is
needed since the full extent of the current location is not marked as a
reserved region in the e820.
This was seen to happen to a dom0 with a large initial p2m and a small
reserved region in the middle of the initial p2m.

When we switch to virtual addresses and, especially after
reserve_initrd()->relocate_initrd() have run, we have the updated initrd
address in initrd_start. Use initrd_start then instead of the address
which has been passed to us through boot params. (That still gets used
when we're running the very early routines on the BSP).

We use sync_core() in the alternatives code to stop speculative
execution of prefetched instructions because we are potentially changing
them and don't want to execute stale bytes.
What it does on most machines is call CPUID which is a serializing
instruction. And that's expensive.
However, the instruction cache is serialized when we're on the local CPU
and are changing the data through the same virtual address. So then, we
don't need the serializing CPUID but a simple control flow change. Last
being accomplished with a CALL/RET which the noinline causes.

There is a feature in Hyper-V ('Debug-VM --InjectNonMaskableInterrupt')
which injects NMI to the guest. We may want to crash the guest and do kdump
on this NMI by enabling unknown_nmi_panic. To make kdump succeed we need to
allow the kdump kernel to re-establish VMBus connection so it will see
VMBus devices (storage, network,..).
To properly unload VMBus making it possible to start over during kdump we
need to do the following:
- Send an 'unload' message to the hypervisor. This can be done on any CPU
so we do this the crashing CPU.
- Receive the 'unload finished' reply message. WS2012R2 delivers this
message to the CPU which was used to establish VMBus connection during
module load and this CPU may differ from the CPU sending 'unload'.
Receiving a VMBus message means the following:
- There is a per-CPU slot in memory for one message. This slot can in
theory be accessed by any CPU.
- We get an interrupt on the CPU when a message was placed into the slot.
- When we read the message we need to clear the slot and signal the fact
to the hypervisor. In case there are more messages to this CPU pending
the hypervisor will deliver the next message. The signaling is done by
writing to an MSR so this can only be done on the appropriate CPU.
To avoid doing cross-CPU work on crash we have vmbus_wait_for_unload()
function which checks message slots for all CPUs in a loop waiting for the
'unload finished' messages. However, there is an issue which arises when
these conditions are met:
- We're crashing on a CPU which is different from the one which was used
to initially contact the hypervisor.
- The CPU which was used for the initial contact is blocked with interrupts
disabled and there is a message pending in the message slot.
In this case we won't be able to read the 'unload finished' message on the
crashing CPU. This is reproducible when we receive unknown NMIs on all CPUs
simultaneously: the first CPU entering panic() will proceed to crash and
all other CPUs will stop themselves with interrupts disabled.
The suggested solution is to handle unknown NMIs for Hyper-V guests on the
first CPU which gets them only. This will allow us to rely on VMBus
interrupt handler being able to receive the 'unload finish' message in
case it is delivered to a different CPU.
The issue is not reproducible on WS2016 as Debug-VM delivers NMI to the
boot CPU only, WS2012R2 and earlier Hyper-V versions are affected.

Aside from being excessively slow, CPUID is problematic: Linux runs
on a handful of CPUs that don't have CPUID. Use IRET-to-self
instead. IRET-to-self works everywhere, so it makes testing easy.
For reference, On my laptop, IRET-to-self is ~110ns,
CPUID(eax=1, ecx=0) is ~83ns on native and very very slow under KVM,
and MOV-to-CR2 is ~42ns.
While we're at it: sync_core() serves a very specific purpose.

This reverts commit ed68d7e9b9.
The patch wasn't quite correct -- there are non-Intel (and hence
non-486) CPUs that we support that don't have CPUID. Since we no
longer require CPUID for sync_core(), just revert the patch.
I think the relevant CPUs are Geode and Elan, but I'm not sure.
In principle, we should try to do better at identifying CPUID-less
CPUs in early boot, but that's more complicated.

Somehow, CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n convinces gcc to change the
x86_64_start_kernel() prologue from:
0000000000000129 <x86_64_start_kernel>:
129: 55 push %rbp
12a: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
to:
0000000000000124 <x86_64_start_kernel>:

12d: 41 ff 72 f8 pushq -0x8(%r10)
131: 55 push %rbp
132: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
This is an unusual pattern which aligns rsp (though in this case it's
already aligned) and saves the start_cpu() return address again on the
stack before storing the frame pointer.
The unwinder assumes the last stack frame header is at a certain offset,
but the above code breaks that assumption, resulting in the following
warning:
WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffffffff82e03f40 in swapper:0 has bad value (null)

ca not possible have i8042 (as is the case with Inrel MID platform),
firmware (such as ACPI) reports that i8042 is absent from the device,

Doing so is completely void of sense for multiple reasons so prevent
it. Set dis_ucode_ldr to true and thus disable the microcode loader by
default to address xen pv guests which execute the AP path but not the
BSP path.
By having it turned off by default, the APs won't run into the loader
either.
Also, check CPUID(1).ECX[31] which hypervisors set. Well almost, not the
xen pv one. That one gets the aforementioned "fix".
Also, improve the detection method by caching the final decision whether
to continue loading in dis_ucode_ldr and do it once on the BSP. The APs
then simply test that value.
