Dave Hansen e8df1a95b6 x86/cpufeature, x86/mm/pkeys: Fix broken compile-time disabling of pkeys
When I added support for the Memory Protection Keys processor
feature, I had to reindent the REQUIRED/DISABLED_MASK macros, and
also consult the later cpufeature words.

I'm not quite sure how I bungled it, but I consulted the wrong
word at the end.  This only affected required or disabled cpu
features in cpufeature words 14, 15 and 16.  So, only Protection
Keys itself was screwed over here.

The result was that if you disabled pkeys in your .config, you
might still see some code show up that should have been compiled
out.  There should be no functional problems, though.

In verifying this patch I also realized that the DISABLE_PKU/OSPKE
macros were defined backwards and that the cpu_has() check in
setup_pku() was not doing the compile-time disabled checks.

So also fix the macro for DISABLE_PKU/OSPKE and add a compile-time
check for pkeys being enabled in setup_pku().

Vikas Shivappa 33c3cc7acf perf/x86/mbm: Add Intel Memory B/W Monitoring enumeration and init
The MBM init patch enumerates the Intel MBM (Memory b/w monitoring)
and initializes the perf events and datastructures for monitoring the
memory b/w.

Its based on original patch series by Tony Luck and Kanaka Juvva.

Memory bandwidth monitoring (MBM) provides OS/VMM a way to monitor
bandwidth from one level of cache to another. The current patches
support L3 external bandwidth monitoring. It supports both 'local
bandwidth' and 'total bandwidth' monitoring for the socket. Local
bandwidth measures the amount of data sent through the memory controller
on the socket and total b/w measures the total system bandwidth.

Extending the cache quality of service monitoring (CQM) we add two
more events to the perf infrastructure:

  intel_cqm_llc/local_bytes - bytes sent through local socket memory controller
  intel_cqm_llc/total_bytes - total L3 external bytes sent

The tasks are associated with a Resouce Monitoring ID (RMID) just like
in CQM and OS uses a MSR write to indicate the RMID of the task during
scheduling.

Linus Torvalds 643ad15d47 Merge branch 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
  that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).

  There's a background article at LWN.net:

      https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/

  The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
  user-controllable permission masks in the pte.  So instead of having a
  fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
  and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
  protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
  cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
  virtual memory range.

  This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
  amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions.  It also
  allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
  executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
  below).

  This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
  that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
  if a user-space application calls:

        mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);

  or

        mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);

  (note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
  this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
  memory range.  It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
  Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
  and unwritable.

  So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
  PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
  PROT_READ as well.  Unreadable executable mappings have security
  advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
  ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
  cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.

  We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
  mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
  feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.

  There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
  call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
  pull request.

  Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
  (CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
  (like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
  overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment.  If there's
  any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
  flip the default"

Andy Lutomirski 58a5aac533 x86/entry/32: Introduce and use X86_BUG_ESPFIX instead of paravirt_enabled
x86_64 has very clean espfix handling on paravirt: espfix64 is set
up in native_iret, so paravirt systems that override iret bypass
espfix64 automatically.  This is robust and straightforward.

x86_32 is messier.  espfix is set up before the IRET paravirt patch
point, so it can't be directly conditionalized on whether we use
native_iret.  We also can't easily move it into native_iret without
regressing performance due to a bizarre consideration.  Specifically,
on 64-bit kernels, the logic is:

  if (regs->ss & 0x4)
          setup_espfix;

On 32-bit kernels, the logic is:

  if ((regs->ss & 0x4) && (regs->cs & 0x3) == 3 &&
      (regs->flags & X86_EFLAGS_VM) == 0)
          setup_espfix;

The performance of setup_espfix itself is essentially irrelevant, but
the comparison happens on every IRET so its performance matters.  On
x86_64, there's no need for any registers except flags to implement
the comparison, so we fold the whole thing into native_iret.  On
x86_32, we don't do that because we need a free register to
implement the comparison efficiently.  We therefore do espfix setup
before restoring registers on x86_32.

This patch gets rid of the explicit paravirt_enabled check by
introducing X86_BUG_ESPFIX on 32-bit systems and using an ALTERNATIVE
to skip espfix on paravirt systems where iret != native_iret.  This is
also messy, but it's at least in line with other things we do.

This improves espfix performance by removing a branch, but no one
cares.  More importantly, it removes a paravirt_enabled user, which is
good because paravirt_enabled is ill-defined and is going away.

Thomas Gleixner 1f12e32f4c x86/topology: Create logical package id
For per package oriented services we must be able to rely on the number of CPU
packages to be within bounds. Create a tracking facility, which

- calculates the number of possible packages depending on nr_cpu_ids after boot

- makes sure that the package id is within the number of possible packages. If
  the apic id is outside we map it to a logical package id if there is enough
  space available.

Provide interfaces for drivers to query the mapping and do translations from
physcial to logical ids.

Dave Hansen 0697694564 x86/mm/pkeys: Actually enable Memory Protection Keys in the CPU
This sets the bit in 'cr4' to actually enable the protection
keys feature.  We also include a boot-time disable for the
feature "nopku".

Seting X86_CR4_PKE will cause the X86_FEATURE_OSPKE cpuid
bit to appear set.  At this point in boot, identify_cpu()
has already run the actual CPUID instructions and populated
the "cpu features" structures.  We need to go back and
re-run identify_cpu() to make sure it gets updated values.

We *could* simply re-populate the 11th word of the cpuid
data, but this is probably quick enough.

Also note that with the cpu_has() check and X86_FEATURE_PKU
present in disabled-features.h, we do not need an #ifdef
for setup_pku().

Dave Hansen dfb4a70f20 x86/cpufeature, x86/mm/pkeys: Add protection keys related CPUID definitions
There are two CPUID bits for protection keys.  One is for whether
the CPU contains the feature, and the other will appear set once
the OS enables protection keys.  Specifically:

	Bit 04: OSPKE. If 1, OS has set CR4.PKE to enable
	Protection keys (and the RDPKRU/WRPKRU instructions)

This is because userspace can not see CR4 contents, but it can
see CPUID contents.

X86_FEATURE_PKU is referred to as "PKU" in the hardware documentation:

	CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):ECX.PKU [bit 3]

X86_FEATURE_OSPKE is "OSPKU":

	CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):ECX.OSPKE [bit 4]

These are the first CPU features which need to look at the
ECX word in CPUID leaf 0x7, so this patch also includes
fetching that word in to the cpuinfo->x86_capability[] array.

Add it to the disabled-features mask when its config option is
off.  Even though we are not using it here, we also extend the
REQUIRED_MASK_BIT_SET() macro to keep it mirroring the
DISABLED_MASK_BIT_SET() version.

This means that in almost all code, you should use:

	cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_PKU)

and *not* the CONFIG option.

Borislav Petkov bc696ca05f x86/cpufeature: Replace the old static_cpu_has() with safe variant
So the old one didn't work properly before alternatives had run.
And it was supposed to provide an optimized JMP because the
assumption was that the offset it is jumping to is within a
signed byte and thus a two-byte JMP.

So I did an x86_64 allyesconfig build and dumped all possible
sites where static_cpu_has() was used. The optimization amounted
to all in all 12(!) places where static_cpu_has() had generated
a 2-byte JMP. Which has saved us a whopping 36 bytes!

This clearly is not worth the trouble so we can remove it. The
only place where the optimization might count - in __switch_to()
- we will handle differently. But that's not subject of this
patch.

Borislav Petkov 31ac34ca56 x86/cpu: Fix MSR value truncation issue
So sparse rightfully complains that the u64 MSR value we're
writing into the STAR MSR, i.e. 0xc0000081, is being truncated:

./arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:193:36: warning: cast truncates
bits from constant value (23001000000000 becomes 0)

because the actual value doesn't fit into the unsigned 32-bit
quantity which are the @low and @high wrmsrl() parameters.

This is not a problem, practically, because gcc is actually
being smart enough here and does the right thing:

  .loc 3 87 0
  xorl    %esi, %esi		# we needz a 32-bit zero
  movl    $2293776, %edx	# 0x00230010 == (__USER32_CS << 16) | __KERNEL_CS go into the high bits
  movl    $-1073741695, %ecx	# MSR_STAR, i.e., 0xc0000081
  movl    %esi, %eax		# low order 32 bits in the MSR which are 0
  #APP
  # 87 "./arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h" 1
          wrmsr

More specifically, MSR_STAR[31:0] is being set to 0. That field
is reserved on Intel and on AMD it is 32-bit SYSCALL Target EIP.

I'd strongly guess because Intel doesn't have SYSCALL in
compat/legacy mode and we're using SYSENTER and INT80 there. And
for compat syscalls in long mode we use CSTAR.

So let's fix the sparse warning by writing SYSRET and SYSCALL CS
and SS into the high 32-bit half of STAR and 0 in the low half
explicitly.

 [ Actually, if we had to be precise, we would have to read what's in
   STAR[31:0] and write it back unchanged on Intel and write 0 on AMD. I
   guess the current writing to 0 is still ok since Intel can apparently
   stomach it. ]

The resulting code is identical to what we have above:

  .loc 3 87 0
  xorl    %esi, %esi      # tmp104
  movl    $2293776, %eax  #, tmp103
  movl    $-1073741695, %ecx      #, tmp102
  movl    %esi, %edx      # tmp104, tmp104

  ...

        wrmsr

Andrew Cooper 581b7f158f x86/cpu: Fix SMAP check in PVOPS environments
There appears to be no formal statement of what pv_irq_ops.save_fl() is
supposed to return precisely.  Native returns the full flags, while lguest and
Xen only return the Interrupt Flag, and both have comments by the
implementations stating that only the Interrupt Flag is looked at.  This may
have been true when initially implemented, but no longer is.

To make matters worse, the Xen PVOP leaves the upper bits undefined, making
the BUG_ON() undefined behaviour.  Experimentally, this now trips for 32bit PV
guests on Broadwell hardware.  The BUG_ON() is consistent for an individual
build, but not consistent for all builds.  It has also been a sitting timebomb
since SMAP support was introduced.

Use native_save_fl() instead, which will obtain an accurate view of the AC
flag.

Borislav Petkov 7c5b190e11 x86/cpu: Print family/model/stepping in hex
924e101a7a ("x86/debug: Dump family, model, stepping of the
boot CPU") had its good intentions to dump the exact F/M/S as an
aid during debugging sessions but its output can be ambiguous.
Fix that:

-smpboot: CPU0: Intel Core Processor (Broadwell) (fam: 06, model: 47, stepping: 02)
+smpboot: CPU0: Intel Core Processor (Broadwell) (family: 0x6, model: 0x47, stepping: 0x2)

Also, spell out "family".

Andy Lutomirski 47edb65178 x86/asm/msr: Make wrmsrl() a function
As of cf991de2f6 ("x86/asm/msr: Make wrmsrl_safe() a
function"), wrmsrl_safe is a function, but wrmsrl is still a
macro.  The wrmsrl macro performs invalid shifts if the value
argument is 32 bits. This makes it unnecessarily awkward to
write code that puts an unsigned long into an MSR.

To make this work, syscall_init needs tweaking to stop passing
a function pointer to wrmsrl.

Andy Lutomirski 37868fe113 x86/ldt: Make modify_ldt synchronous
modify_ldt() has questionable locking and does not synchronize
threads.  Improve it: redesign the locking and synchronize all
threads' LDTs using an IPI on all modifications.

This will dramatically slow down modify_ldt in multithreaded
programs, but there shouldn't be any multithreaded programs that
care about modify_ldt's performance in the first place.

This fixes some fallout from the CVE-2015-5157 fixes.

Resulting in inconsistent energy policy settings across CPUs.

This register is set via init_intel() at bootup. During resume,
the secondary CPUs are brought online again and init_intel() is
callled which re-initializes the register. The boot CPU however
never reinitializes the register.

Add a syscore callback to reinitialize the register for the boot CPU.

Ingo Molnar db52ef74b3 x86/fpu: Fix FPU related boot regression when CPUID masking BIOS feature is enabled
Mike Galbraith reported:

  " My i7-4790 box is having one hell of a time with this merge
    window, dead in the water.

    BIOS setting "Limit CPUID Maximum" upsets new fpu code
    mightily. "

It turns out that Linux does a double workaround here, as per:

  066941bd4e ("x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs")

it undoes the BIOS workaround - but as a side effect the CPUID
state is not completely constant during early init anymore,
and the new FPU init code did not take this into account.

So what happened is that the xstate init code did not have full
CPUID available, which broke subsequent attempts to use xstate
features.

Fix this by ordering the early FPU init code to after we've
stabilized the CPUID state.

Linus Torvalds d70b3ef54c Merge branch 'x86-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
  in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
  so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
  collected into the 'x86/core' topic.

  The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
  bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
  but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
  dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
  end.

  The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
  have fewer dependencies).

  The main changes in this cycle were:

   * x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
     Gleixner)

     - This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
       interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
       domains:

          [IOAPIC domain]   -----
                                 |
          [MSI domain]      --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
                                 |   (optional)          |
          [HPET MSI domain] -----                        |
                                                         |
          [DMAR domain]     -----------------------------
                                                         |
          [Legacy domain]   -----------------------------

       This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
       the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
       can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping.  It's a clear
       separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
       constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
       and the vector management.

     - Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
       injection into guests (Feng Wu)

   * x86/asm changes:

     - Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations.  This
       is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
       code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
       Brian Gerst)

     - Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
       arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)

     - Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
       Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
       they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
       not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)

     - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/mm changes:

     - Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
       preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
       in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
       Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)

     - New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
       Write-Through cached memory mappings.  This is especially
       important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)

   * x86/ras changes:

     - Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)

       This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
       poisoned data.  That means roughly that the hardware marks data
       which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
       poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
       form of a deferred error.  It is the OS's responsibility then to
       take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
       far as possible.

     - Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
       CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
       wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)

     - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/platform changes:

     - Intel Atom SoC updates

  ... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
  shortlog and the Git log for details"

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree contains two main changes:

   - The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
     that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
     arch/x86/fpu/.

     The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
     understand.  This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
     code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).

     By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
     code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
     and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
     back to kernel side backs.  I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
     suspected) FPU related regression so far.

   - MPX support rework/fixes.  As this is still not a released CPU

Dave Hansen 8c3641e957 x86/mpx: Introduce a boot-time disable flag
MPX has the _potential_ to cause some issues.  Say part of your
init system tried to protect one of its components from buffer
overflows with MPX.  If there were a false positive, it's
possible that MPX could keep a system from booting.

MPX could also potentially cause performance issues since it is
present in hot paths like the unmap path.

Allow it to be disabled at boot time.

Ingo Molnar b2502b418e x86/asm/entry: Untangle 'system_call' into two entry points: entry_SYSCALL_64 and entry_INT80_32
The 'system_call' entry points differ starkly between native 32-bit and 64-bit
kernels: on 32-bit kernels it defines the INT 0x80 entry point, while on
64-bit it's the SYSCALL entry point.

This is pretty confusing when looking at generic code, and it also obscures
the nature of the entry point at the assembly level.

So unangle this by splitting the name into its two uses:

	system_call (32) -> entry_INT80_32
	system_call (64) -> entry_SYSCALL_64

As per the generic naming scheme for x86 system call entry points:

	entry_MNEMONIC_qualifier

where 'qualifier' is one of _32, _64 or _compat.

In talking to Aravind recently about making certain AMD topology
attributes available to the MCE injection module, it seemed like
that CONFIG_X86_HT thing is more or less superfluous. It is
def_bool y, depends on SMP and gets enabled in the majority of
.configs - distro and otherwise - out there.

So let's kill it and make code behind it depend directly on SMP.

However, there were issues with overlapping buffers, string
sizes and non-byte-sized copies in the previous proposed
solutions; see Link tags below for the whole farce.

So, instead of diddling with this more, let's simply extend what
was there originally with trimming any present trailing
whitespace. Final result is really simple and obvious.

Testing with the most insane model IDs qemu can generate, looks
good:

  .model_id = "            My funny model ID CPU          ",
  ______4_model_name      :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU

  .model_id = "My funny model ID CPU          ",
  ______4_model_name      :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU

  .model_id = "            My funny model ID CPU",
  ______4_model_name      :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU

  .model_id = "            ",
  ______4_model_name      :__

  .model_id = "",
  ______4_model_name      :_15/02

Prarit Bhargava adafb98da6 x86/cpu: Strip any /proc/cpuinfo model name field whitespace
When comparing the 'model name' field of each core in
/proc/cpuinfo it was noticed that there is a whitespace
difference between the cores' model names.

After some quick investigation it was noticed that the model
name fields were actually different -- processor 0's model name
field had trailing whitespace removed, while the other
processors did not.

Another way of seeing this behaviour is to convert spaces into
underscores in the output of /proc/cpuinfo,

  [thetango@prarit ~]# grep "^model name" /proc/cpuinfo | uniq -c | sed 's/\ /_/g'
  ______1_model_name      :_AMD_Opteron(TM)_Processor_6272
  _____63_model_name      :_AMD_Opteron(TM)_Processor_6272_________________

which shows the discrepancy.

This occurs because the kernel calls strim() on cpu 0's
x86_model_id field to output a pretty message to the console in
print_cpu_info(), and as a result strips the whitespace at the
end of the ->x86_model_id field.

But, the ->x86_model_id field should be the same for the all
identical CPUs in the box. Thus, we need to remove both leading
and trailing whitespace.

As a result, the print_cpu_info() output looks like

  smpboot: CPU0: AMD Opteron(TM) Processor 6272 (fam: 15, model: 01, stepping: 02)

and the x86_model_id field is correct on all processors on AMD
platforms:

  _____64_model_name      :_AMD_Opteron(TM)_Processor_6272

Output is still correct on an Intel box:

  ____144_model_name      :_Intel(R)_Xeon(R)_CPU_E7-8890_v3_@_2.50GHz

clear, and to move it to the fpu__*() namespace.

Linus Torvalds 6c8a53c9e6 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Core kernel changes:

   - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
     to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
     by the kernel) to kprobes.

     This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
     that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
     (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
     allow unprivileged use as well.)

     (Alexei Starovoitov)

   - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
     allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
     sources for event timestamps traced via perf.

     This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
     events with external events that were measured with different
     clocks:

       - cluster wide profiling

       - for system wide tracing with user-space events,

       - JIT profiling events

     etc.  Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
     the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.

     (Peter Zijlstra)

  Hardware enablement kernel changes:

   - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
     on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.

     The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
     ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
     to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
     necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.

     This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
     A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
     driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
     More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
     will probably be ready by 4.2.

     (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
     feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
     allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.

     These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
     driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events.  (The
     partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
     as a cgroup extension.)

     (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
     Waskiewicz Jr)

   - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
     feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
     tooling support.  To activate this feature you have to enable it
     via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:

        perf record --call-graph lbr
        perf report

     or:

        perf top --call-graph lbr

     This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
     based unwinding, but has some limitations:

       - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
         branch record can not be enabled at the same time.

       - It is only available for user-space callchains.

     (Yan, Zheng)

   - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
     event table fixes for earlier models.

     (Andi Kleen)

   - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds.  This is a complex
     CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
     value corruption.  The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
     is transparent.

     (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)

  The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
  I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
  the tooling changes outlined above:

  User visible changes affecting all tools:

      - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
      - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
      - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
      - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
      - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  User visible changes in individual tools:

    'perf data':

        New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
        for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
        Sebastian Siewior)

    'perf diff':

        Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)

    'perf list':

        Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)

        Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)

    'perf kmem':

        Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)

        Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)

        Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)

        Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)

    'perf probe':

        Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)

        Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)

    'perf record':

        Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)

        Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)

    'perf sched':

        Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)

    'perf report' and 'perf top':

        Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
        TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)

        Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
        cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
        events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

    'perf stat':

        Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)

        Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)

    'perf trace':

        Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
        be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
        place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
        (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

        Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  There's also been a ton of infrastructure work done, such as the
  split-out of perf's build system into tools/build/ and other changes -

Andy Lutomirski cf9328cc99 x86/asm/entry/32: Stop caching MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_ESP in tss.sp1
We write a stack pointer to MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_ESP exactly once,
and we unnecessarily cache the value in tss.sp1.  We never
read the cached value.

Remove all of the caching.  It serves no purpose.

Denys Vlasenko 487d1edb9a x86/asm/entry/64: Fix comment about SYSENTER MSRs
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.

Denys Vlasenko ef593260f0 x86/asm/entry: Get rid of KERNEL_STACK_OFFSET
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.

init specific, serves no real purpose.

Its existense also caused an unintended effect of having

(if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION), we set it to point to the proper

Denys Vlasenko d828c71fba x86/asm/entry/32: Document the 32-bit SYSENTER "emergency stack" better
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[].

Andy Lutomirski a7fcf28d43 x86/asm/entry: Replace this_cpu_sp0() with current_top_of_stack() and fix it on x86_32
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.

Steven Rostedt 5b2bdbc845 x86: Init per-cpu shadow copy of CR4 on 32-bit CPUs too
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.

Peter P Waskiewicz Jr cbc82b1726 x86: Add support for Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) detection
This patch adds support for the new Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM)
feature found in future Intel Xeon processors.  It includes the
new values to track CQM resources to the cpuinfo_x86 structure,
plus the CPUID detection routines for CQM.

CQM allows a process, or set of processes, to be tracked by the CPU
to determine the cache usage of that task group.  Using this data
from the CPU, software can be written to extract this data and
report cache usage and occupancy for a particular process, or
group of processes.

More information about Cache QoS Monitoring can be found in the
Intel (R) x86 Architecture Software Developer Manual, section 17.14.

Andy Lutomirski 1e02ce4ccc x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4
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.

Steven Honeyman f94fe119f2 x86, CPU: Fix trivial printk formatting issues with dmesg
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:

[    0.012863] CPU0: Thermal monitoring enabled (TM1)
[    0.012869] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 1024, 2MB 1024, 4MB 1024
Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 1024, 2MB 1024, 4MB 1024, 1GB 4
[    0.012958] Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 28K (ffffffff81d86000 - ffffffff81d8d000)
[    0.014961] dmar: Host address width 39

Because printk.c intentionally escapes control characters, they should
not be there in the first place. This patch fixes two occurrences of
this.

Dave Hansen 2cd3949f70 x86: Require exact match for 'noxsave' command line option
We have some very similarly named command-line options:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsave", x86_xsave_setup);
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsaveopt", x86_xsaveopt_setup);
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsaves", x86_xsaves_setup);

__setup() is designed to match options that take arguments, like
"foo=bar" where you would have:

	__setup("foo", x86_foo_func...);

The problem is that "noxsave" actually _matches_ "noxsaves" in
the same way that "foo" matches "foo=bar".  If you boot an old
kernel that does not know about "noxsaves" with "noxsaves" on the
command line, it will interpret the argument as "noxsave", which
is not what you want at all.

This makes the "noxsave" handler only return success when it finds
an *exact* match.

[ tglx: We really need to make __setup() more robust. ]

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
  and had their own accessors.  The distinction has been gone for many
  years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
  with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
  operations over time.  During the process, we also accumulated other
  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

Andy Lutomirski 8c7aa698ba x86_64, entry: Filter RFLAGS.NT on entry from userspace
The NT flag doesn't do anything in long mode other than causing IRET
to #GP.  Oddly, CPL3 code can still set NT using popf.

Entry via hardware or software interrupt clears NT automatically, so
the only relevant entries are fast syscalls.

If user code causes kernel code to run with NT set, then there's at
least some (small) chance that it could cause trouble.  For example,
user code could cause a call to EFI code with NT set, and who knows
what would happen?  Apparently some games on Wine sometimes do
this (!), and, if an IRET return happens, they will segfault.  That
segfault cannot be handled, because signal delivery fails, too.

This patch programs the CPU to clear NT on entry via SYSCALL (both
32-bit and 64-bit, by my reading of the AMD APM), and it clears NT
in software on entry via SYSENTER.

To save a few cycles, this borrows a trick from Jan Beulich in Xen:
it checks whether NT is set before trying to clear it.  As a result,
it seems to have very little effect on SYSENTER performance on my
machine.

There's another minor bug fix in here: it looks like the CFI
annotations were wrong if CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL=n.

Testers beware: on Xen, SYSENTER with NT set turns into a GPF.

I haven't touched anything on 32-bit kernels.

The syscall mask change comes from a variant of this patch by Anish
Bhatt.

Note to stable maintainers: there is no known security issue here.
A misguided program can set NT and cause the kernel to try and fail
to deliver SIGSEGV, crashing the program.  This patch fixes Far Cry
on Wine: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33275

Igor Mammedov ce4b1b1650 x86/smpboot: Initialize secondary CPU only if master CPU will wait for it
Hang is observed on virtual machines during CPU hotplug,
especially in big guests with many CPUs. (It reproducible
more often if host is over-committed).

It happens because master CPU gives up waiting on
secondary CPU and allows it to run wild. As result
AP causes locking or crashing system. For example
as described here:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/6/257

If master CPU have sent STARTUP IPI successfully,
and AP signalled to master CPU that it's ready
to start initialization, make master CPU wait
indefinitely till AP is onlined.

To ensure that AP won't ever run wild, make it
wait at early startup till master CPU confirms its
intention to wait for AP. If AP doesn't respond in 10
seconds, the master CPU will timeout and cancel
AP onlining.

Dave Hansen 9298b815ef x86: Add more disabled features
The original motivation for these patches was for an Intel CPU
feature called MPX.  The patch to add a disabled feature for it
will go in with the other parts of the support.

But, in the meantime, there are a few other features than MPX
that we can make assumptions about at compile-time based on
compile options.  Add them to disabled-features.h and check them
with cpu_feature_enabled().

Note that this gets rid of the last things that needed an #ifdef
CONFIG_X86_64 in cpufeature.h.  Yay!

Christoph Lameter 89cbc76768 x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.

Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.

__get_cpu_var() is defined as :

#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))

__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.

this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.

This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.

Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()

1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);

2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);

3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)

   Converts to

	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);

4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);

   Converts to

	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));

5. Assignment to a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_write(y, x);

6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	__get_cpu_var(y)++

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_inc(y)

Josh Triplett 9def39be4e x86: Support compiling out human-friendly processor feature names
The table mapping CPUID bits to human-readable strings takes up a
non-trivial amount of space, and only exists to support /proc/cpuinfo
and a couple of kernel messages.  Since programs depend on the format of
/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.

In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.

Dave Hansen e9f4e0a9fe x86/mm: Rip out complicated, out-of-date, buggy TLB flushing
I think the flush_tlb_mm_range() code that tries to tune the
flush sizes based on the CPU needs to get ripped out for
several reasons:

1. It is obviously buggy.  It uses mm->total_vm to judge the
   task's footprint in the TLB.  It should certainly be using
   some measure of RSS, *NOT* ->total_vm since only resident
   memory can populate the TLB.
2. Haswell, and several other CPUs are missing from the
   intel_tlb_flushall_shift_set() function.  Thus, it has been
   demonstrated to bitrot quickly in practice.
3. It is plain wrong in my vm:
	[    0.037444] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
	[    0.037444] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
	[    0.037444] tlb_flushall_shift: 6
   Which leads to it to never use invlpg.
4. The assumptions about TLB refill costs are wrong:
	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337782555-8088-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com
    (more on this in later patches)
5. I can not reproduce the original data: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
   I believe the sample times were too short.  Running the
   benchmark in a loop yields times that vary quite a bit.

Note that this leaves us with a static ceiling of 1 page.  This
is a conservative, dumb setting, and will be revised in a later
patch.

This also removes the code which attempts to predict whether we
are flushing data or instructions.  We expect instruction flushes
to be relatively rare and not worth tuning for explicitly.

Fenghua Yu b6f42a4a3c x86/xsaves: Add a kernel parameter noxsaves to disable xsaves/xrstors
This patch adds a kernel parameter noxsaves to disable xsaves/xrstors feature.
The kernel will fall back to use xsaveopt and xrstor to save and restor
xstates. By using this parameter, xsave area occupies more memory because
standard form of xsave area in xsaveopt/xrstor occupies more memory than
compacted form of xsave area.

This patch adds a description of the kernel parameter noxsaveopt in doc.
The code to support the parameter noxsaveopt has been in the kernel before.
This patch just adds the description of this parameter in the doc.
