cpufreq: ACPI: Update arch scale-invariance max perf ratio if CPPC is not there
If the maximum performance level taken for computing the arch_max_freq_ratio value used in the x86 scale-invariance code is higher than the one corresponding to the cpuinfo.max_freq value coming from the acpi_cpufreq driver, the scale-invariant utilization falls below 100% even if the CPU runs at cpuinfo.max_freq or slightly faster, which causes the schedutil governor to select a frequency below cpuinfo.max_freq. That frequency corresponds to a frequency table entry below the maximum performance level necessary to get to the "boost" range of CPU frequencies which prevents "boost" frequencies from being used in some workloads. While this issue is related to scale-invariance, it may be amplified by commit |

x86: PM: Register syscore_ops for scale invariance
On x86 scale invariace tends to be disabled during resume from
suspend-to-RAM, because the MPERF or APERF MSR values are not as
expected then due to updates taking place after the platform
firmware has been invoked to complete the suspend transition.
That, of course, is not desirable, especially if the schedutil
scaling governor is in use, because the lack of scale invariance
causes it to be less reliable.
To counter that effect, modify init_freq_invariance() to register
a syscore_ops object for scale invariance with the ->resume callback
pointing to init_counter_refs() which will run on the CPU starting
the resume transition (the other CPUs will be taken care of the
"online" operations taking place later).

Yet another large set of x86 interrupt management updates:
- Simplification and distangling of the MSI related functionality - Let IO/APIC construct the RTE entries from an MSI message instead of having IO/APIC specific code in the interrupt remapping drivers - Make the retrieval of the parent interrupt domain (vector or remap unit) less hardcoded and use the relevant irqdomain callbacks for selection. - Allow the handling of more than 255 CPUs without a virtualized IOMMU when the hypervisor supports it. This has made been possible by the above modifications and also simplifies the existing workaround in the HyperV specific virtual IOMMU. - Cleanup of the historical timer_works() irq flags related inconsistencies. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl/Xxd8THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoYpOD/9C5TppNlPMUyx2SflH6bxt37pJEpln +hYTKsk+jSThntr5mfj+GifGvgmHOVBTGnlDUnUnrpN7TQmLFBzwTOtnBLW53AO2 16/u0+Xci4LNCtEkaymf0Rq4MfsfriXHPJr0A/CnZ0tpHSf5QKHAiitSiGujdMlb gbq43+zXd+jNkH7vkOLPX/7dZVI1hNASQEevJu2tRR4xYTuXFdBxvLgYkHtYKKrK R1sbs6nI6yIzye2u4m4xGu29SxgUft+zdUf+UehJKM3yFmf51d9qpkX+kLaTWuaL VPsMItbn0kdvxwXQWO6DYnIAAnVKCklyHQJTZCoNq9Fe91OoByak1CEVspSOa1av JmycNSch4IYWasR4vVCB1gbb+V9SejcKu5SV3CDrEDqwkOIpfiqpriUXSCJTLlFd QOEDOLuuk/79Qs//J/tb/nJ4IuKv8WPudDfIlMro8wUsAr67DjD4mnXprZ+svwWx Ct/0/Memk+BSa0cw6pvg24BUZGN6zrufkBu2HKT9GOXRUdNkdLkiPhT8mK4T/O0l f90QCLjPSOJ/K/pLEWdUHEPmgC5Q9RsXOmwVGqX+RbjfP7mYTJXlmWnBb+cFNch0 xFIH3SxVGylxxT06NX3SkvinrHj10CoAlmneefBlLtx6dF+2P84DAMZSF0OFToVI c2KMg5zoesI4bg== =8Gfs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-apic-2020-12-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Yet another large set of x86 interrupt management updates: - Simplification and distangling of the MSI related functionality - Let IO/APIC construct the RTE entries from an MSI message instead of having IO/APIC specific code in the interrupt remapping drivers - Make the retrieval of the parent interrupt domain (vector or remap unit) less hardcoded and use the relevant irqdomain callbacks for selection. - Allow the handling of more than 255 CPUs without a virtualized IOMMU when the hypervisor supports it.

x86: Print ratio freq_max/freq_base used in frequency invariance calculations
The value freq_max/freq_base is a fundamental component of frequency invariance calculations. It may come from a variety of sources such as MSRs or ACPI data, tracking it down when troubleshooting a system could be non-trivial. It is worth saving it in the kernel logs. # dmesg | grep 'Estimated ratio of average max' [ 14.024036] smpboot: Estimated ratio of average max frequency by base frequency (times 1024): 1289 Signed-off-by: Giovanni Gherdovich <ggherdovich@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201112182614.10700-4-ggherdovich@suse.cz |

x86, sched: Use midpoint of max_boost and max_P for frequency invariance on AMD EPYC
Frequency invariant accounting calculations need the ratio freq_curr/freq_max, but freq_max is unknown as it depends on dynamic power allocation between cores: AMD EPYC CPUs implement "Core Performance Boost". Three candidates are considered to estimate this value: - maximum non-boost frequency - maximum boost frequency - the mid point between the above two Experimental data on an AMD EPYC Zen2 machine slightly favors the third option, which is applied with this patch. The analysis uses the ondemand cpufreq governor as baseline, and compares it with schedutil in a number of configurations. Using the freq_max value described above offers a moderate advantage in performance and efficiency: sugov-max (freq_max=max_boost) performs the worst on tbench: less throughput and reduced efficiency than the other invariant-schedutil options (see "Data Overview" below). Consider that tbench is generally a problematic case as no schedutil version currently is better than ondemand. sugov-P0 (freq_max=max_P) is the worst on dbench, while the other sugov's can surpass ondemand with less filesystem latency and slightly increased efficiency. 1.

x86, sched: Calculate frequency invariance for AMD systems
This is the first pass in creating the ability to calculate the frequency invariance on AMD systems. This approach uses the CPPC highest performance and nominal performance values that range from 0 - 255 instead of a high and base frquency. This is because we do not have the ability on AMD to get a highest frequency value. On AMD systems the highest performance and nominal performance vaues do correspond to the highest and base frequencies for the system so using them should produce an appropriate ratio but some tweaking is likely necessary. Due to CPPC being initialized later in boot than when the frequency invariant calculation is currently made, I had to create a callback from the CPPC init code to do the calculation after we have CPPC data. Special thanks to "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>" for reporting that compilation of drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c is conditional to CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB, not just CONFIG_ACPI.

x86/apic: Cleanup destination mode

x86/apic: Get rid of apic:: Dest_logical
struct apic has two members which store information about the destination mode: dest_logical and irq_dest_mode. dest_logical contains a mask which was historically used to set the destination mode in IPI messages. Over time the usage was reduced and the logical/physical functions were seperated. There are only a few places which still use 'dest_logical' but they can use 'irq_dest_mode' instead. irq_dest_mode is actually a boolean where 0 means physical destination mode and 1 means logical destination mode. Of course the name does not reflect the functionality. This will be cleaned up in a subsequent change. Remove apic::dest_logical and fixup the remaining users.

x86/hotplug: Silence APIC only after all interrupts are migrated
There is a race when taking a CPU offline. Current code looks like this:
native_cpu_disable()
{
...
apic_soft_disable();
/*
* Any existing set bits for pending interrupt to
* this CPU are preserved and will be sent via IPI
* to another CPU by fixup_irqs().
*/
cpu_disable_common();
{
....
/*
* Race window happens here. Once local APIC has been
* disabled any new interrupts from the device to
* the old CPU are lost
*/
fixup_irqs(); // Too late to capture anything in IRR.
...
}
}
The fix is to disable the APIC *after* cpu_disable_common().
Testing was done with a USB NIC that provided a source of frequent
interrupts. A script migrated interrupts to a specific CPU and
then took that CPU offline.

x86/stackprotector: Pre-initialize canary for secondary CPUs
The idle tasks created for each secondary CPU already have a random stack canary generated by fork(). Copy the canary to the percpu variable before starting the secondary CPU which removes the need to call boot_init_stack_canary().

x86, sched: check for counters overflow in frequency invariant accounting
The product mcnt * arch_max_freq_ratio can overflows u64.
For context, a large value for arch_max_freq_ratio would be 5000,
corresponding to a turbo_freq/base_freq ratio of 5 (normally it's more like
1500-2000). A large increment frequency for the MPERF counter would be 5GHz
(the base clock of all CPUs on the market today is less than that). With
these figures, a CPU would need to go without a scheduler tick for around 8
days for the u64 overflow to happen. It is unlikely, but the check is
warranted.
Under similar conditions, the difference acnt of two consecutive APERF
readings can overflow as well.
In these circumstances is appropriate to disable frequency invariant
accounting: the feature relies on measures of the clock frequency done at
every scheduler tick, which need to be "fresh" to be at all meaningful.
A note on i386: prior to version 5.1, the GCC compiler didn't have the
builtin function __builtin_mul_overflow. In these GCC versions the macro
check_mul_overflow needs __udivdi3() to do (u64)a/b, which the kernel
doesn't provide. For this reason this change fails to build on i386 if
GCC<5.1, and we protect the entire frequency invariant code behind
CONFIG_X86_64 (special thanks to "kbuild test robot" <lkp@intel.com>).

x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try
... or the odyssey of trying to disable the stack protector for the function which generates the stack canary value. The whole story started with Sergei reporting a boot crash with a kernel built with gcc-10: Kernel panic — not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.6.0-rc5—00235—gfffb08b37df9 #139 Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. To be filled by O.E.M./H77M—D3H, BIOS F12 11/14/2013 Call Trace: dump_stack panic ? start_secondary __stack_chk_fail start_secondary secondary_startup_64 -—-[ end Kernel panic — not syncing: stack—protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary This happens because gcc-10 tail-call optimizes the last function call in start_secondary() - cpu_startup_entry() - and thus emits a stack canary check which fails because the canary value changes after the boot_init_stack_canary() call. To fix that, the initial attempt was to mark the one function which generates the stack canary with: __attribute__((optimize("-fno-stack-protector"))) ... start_secondary(void *unused) however, using the optimize attribute doesn't work cumulatively as the attribute does not add to but rather replaces previously supplied optimization options - roughly all -fxxx options. The key one among them being -fno-omit-frame-pointer and thus leading to not present frame pointer - frame pointer which the kernel needs. The next attempt to prevent compilers from tail-call optimizing the last function call cpu_startup_entry(), shy of carving out start_secondary() into a separate compilation unit and building it with -fno-stack-protector, was to add an empty asm(""). This current solution was short and sweet, and reportedly, is supported by both compilers but we didn't get very far this time: future (LTO?) optimization passes could potentially eliminate this, which leads us to the third attempt: having an actual memory barrier there which the compiler cannot ignore or move around etc. That should hold for a long time, but hey we said that about the other two solutions too so...

x86, sched: Don't enable static key when starting secondary CPUs
The static key arch_scale_freq_key only needs to be enabled once (at
boot). This change fixes a bug by which the key was enabled every time cpu0
is started, even as a secondary CPU during cpu hotplug. Secondary CPUs are
started from the idle thread: setting a static key from there means
acquiring a lock and may result in sleeping in the idle task, causing CPU
lockup.
Another consequence of this change is that init_counter_refs() is now
called on each CPU correctly; previously the function on_each_cpu() was
used, but it was called at boot when the only online cpu is cpu0.

x86, sched: Bail out of frequency invariance if base frequency is unknown
Some hypervisors such as VMWare ESXi 5.5 advertise support for
X86_FEATURE_APERFMPERF but then fill all MSR's with zeroes. In particular,
MSR_PLATFORM_INFO set to zero tricks the code that wants to know the base
clock frequency of the CPU (highest non-turbo frequency), producing a
division by zero when computing the ratio turbo_freq/base_freq necessary
for frequency invariant accounting.
It is to be noted that even if MSR_PLATFORM_INFO contained the appropriate
data, APERF and MPERF are constantly zero on ESXi 5.5, thus freq-invariance
couldn't be done in principle (not that it would make a lot of sense in a
VM anyway). The real problem is advertising X86_FEATURE_APERFMPERF. This
appears to be fixed in more recent versions: ESXi 6.7 doesn't advertise
that feature.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle are: - Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations. - Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve task placement on thermally overloaded systems. - Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86 CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.) - Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity utilization on asymmetric topologies.

x86/intel_pstate: Handle runtime turbo disablement/enablement in frequency invariance
On some platforms such as the Dell XPS 13 laptop the firmware disables turbo when the machine is disconnected from AC, and viceversa it enables it again when it's reconnected. In these cases a _PPC ACPI notification is issued. The scheduler needs to know freq_max for frequency-invariant calculations. To account for turbo availability to come and go, record freq_max at boot as if turbo was available and store it in a helper variable. Use a setter function to swap between freq_base and freq_max every time turbo goes off or on.

x86, sched: Add support for frequency invariance on ATOM
The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant accounting. On all ATOM CPUs prior to Goldmont, set freq_max to the 1-core turbo ratio. We intended to perform tests validating that this patch doesn't regress in terms of energy efficiency, given that this is the primary concern on Atom processors. Alas, we found out that turbostat doesn't support reading RAPL interfaces on our test machine (Airmont), and we don't have external equipment to measure power consumption; all we have is the performance results of the benchmarks we ran.

Not that any of this is terrbily interesting anyway, one doesn't buy an Atom system to go fast. Power consumption regressions aren't expected but we lack the equipment to make that measurement.

x86, sched: Add support for frequency invariance on ATOM_GOLDMONT*
The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant accounting. On GOLDMONT (aka Apollo Lake), GOLDMONT_D (aka Denverton) and GOLDMONT_PLUS CPUs (aka Gemini Lake) set freq_max to the highest frequency reported by the CPU. The encoding of turbo ratios for GOLDMONT* is identical to the one for SKYLAKE_X, but we treat the Atom case apart because we want to set freq_max to a higher value, thus the ratio freq_curr/freq_max to be lower, leading to more conservative frequency selections (favoring power efficiency).

x86, sched: Add support for frequency invariance on XEON_PHI_KNL/KNM
The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant accounting. On Xeon Phi CPUs set freq_max to the second-highest frequency reported by the CPU. Xeon Phi CPUs such as Knights Landing and Knights Mill typically have either one or two turbo frequencies; in the former case that's 100 MHz above the base frequency, in the latter case the two levels are 100 MHz and 200 MHz above base frequency. We set freq_max to the second-highest frequency reported by the CPU. This could be the base frequency (if only one turbo level is available) or the first turbo level (if two levels are available). The rationale is to compromise between power efficiency or performance -- going straight to max turbo would favor efficiency and blindly using base freq would favor performance. For reference, this is how MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT must be parsed on a Xeon Phi to get the available frequencies (taken from a comment in turbostat's sources): [0] -- Reserved [7:1] -- Base value of number of active cores of bucket 1. [15:8] -- Base value of freq ratio of bucket 1. [20:16] -- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 2. i.e. active cores of bucket 2 = active cores of bucket 1 + delta [23:21] -- Negative delta of freq ratio of bucket 2. i.e. freq ratio of bucket 2 = freq ratio of bucket 1 - delta [28:24]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 3. [31:29]-- -ve delta of freq ratio of bucket 3. [36:32]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 4. [39:37]-- -ve delta of freq ratio of bucket 4. [44:40]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 5. [47:45]-- -ve delta of freq ratio of bucket 5. [52:48]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 6.

NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS (ALL OTHERS) 3. TEST SETUP 1. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION: TBENCH +5% ------------------------------------- A performance evaluation was conducted on a Knights Mill machine (see "Test Setup" below), were the frequency-invariance patch (on schedutil) is compared to both non-invariant schedutil and active intel_pstate with powersave: all three tested kernels behave the same performance-wise and with regard to power consumption (performance per watt). The only notable difference is tbench: comparison ratio of performance with baseline; 1.00 means neutral, higher is better: I_PSTATE FREQ-INV ---------------------------------------- tbench 1.04 1.05 performance-per-watt ratios with baseline; 1.00 means neutral, higher is better: I_PSTATE FREQ-INV ---------------------------------------- tbench 1.03 1.04 which essentially means that frequency-invariant schedutil is 5% better than baseline, the same as intel_pstate+powersave.

x86, sched: Add support for frequency invariance
Implement arch_scale_freq_capacity() for 'modern' x86. This function is used by the scheduler to correctly account usage in the face of DVFS. The present patch addresses Intel processors specifically and has positive performance and performance-per-watt implications for the schedutil cpufreq governor, bringing it closer to, if not on-par with, the powersave governor from the intel_pstate driver/framework. Large performance gains are obtained when the machine is lightly loaded and no regression are observed at saturation. The benchmarks with the largest gains are kernel compilation, tbench (the networking version of dbench) and shell-intensive workloads. 1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION * Without it, a task looks larger if the CPU runs slower 2. PECULIARITIES OF X86 * freq invariance accounting requires knowing the ratio freq_curr/freq_max 2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY * Use delta_APERF / delta_MPERF * freq_base (a.k.a "BusyMHz") 2.2 MAX FREQUENCY * It varies with time (turbo). As an approximation, we set it to a constant, i.e. 4-cores turbo frequency. 3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR * The invariant schedutil's formula has no feedback loop and reacts faster to utilization changes 4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS * In some cases tasks can't reach max util despite how hard they try 5. PERFORMANCE TESTING 5.1 MACHINES * Skylake, Broadwell, Haswell 5.2 SETUP * baseline Linux v5.2 w/ non-invariant schedutil. Tested freq_max = 1-2-3-4-8-12 active cores turbo w/ invariant schedutil, and intel_pstate/powersave 5.3 BENCHMARK RESULTS 5.3.1 NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS * NAS Parallel Benchmark (HPC), hackbench 5.3.2 NON-NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS * tbench (10-30% better), kernbench (10-15% better), shell-intensive-scripts (30-50% better) * no regressions 5.3.3 SELECTION OF DETAILED RESULTS 5.3.4 POWER CONSUMPTION, PERFORMANCE-PER-WATT * dbench (5% worse on one machine), kernbench (3% worse), tbench (5-10% better), shell-intensive-scripts (10-40% better) 6. MICROARCH'ES ADDRESSED HERE * Xeon Core before Scalable Performance processors line (Xeon Gold/Platinum etc have different MSRs semantic for querying turbo levels) 7. REFERENCES * MMTests performance testing framework, github.com/gormanm/mmtests +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ For example; suppose a CPU has two frequencies: 500 and 1000 Mhz. When running a task that would consume 1/3rd of a CPU at 1000 MHz, it would appear to consume 2/3rd (or 66.6%) when running at 500 MHz, giving the false impression this CPU is almost at capacity, even though it can go faster [*]. In a nutshell, without frequency scale-invariance tasks look larger just because the CPU is running slower. [*] (footnote: this assumes a linear frequency/performance relation; which everybody knows to be false, but given realities its the best approximation we can make.) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 2. PECULIARITIES OF X86 +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Accounting for frequency changes in PELT signals requires the computation of the ratio freq_curr / freq_max. On x86 neither of those terms is readily available. 2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY ==================== Since modern x86 has hardware control over the actual frequency we run at (because amongst other things, Turbo-Mode), we cannot simply use the frequency as requested through cpufreq. Instead we use the APERF/MPERF MSRs to compute the effective frequency over the recent past. Also, because reading MSRs is expensive, don't do so every time we need the value, but amortize the cost by doing it every tick. 2.2 MAX FREQUENCY ================= Obtaining freq_max is also non-trivial because at any time the hardware can provide a frequency boost to a selected subset of cores if the package has enough power to spare (eg: Turbo Boost). This means that the maximum frequency available to a given core changes with time. The approach taken in this change is to arbitrarily set freq_max to a constant value at boot. The value chosen is the "4-cores (4C) turbo frequency" on most microarchitectures, after evaluating the following candidates: * 1-core (1C) turbo frequency (the fastest turbo state available) * around base frequency (a.k.a. max P-state) * something in between, such as 4C turbo To interpret these options, consider that this is the denominator in freq_curr/freq_max, and that ratio will be used to scale PELT signals such as util_avg and load_avg. A large denominator will undershoot (util_avg looks a bit smaller than it really is), viceversa with a smaller denominator PELT signals will tend to overshoot. Given that PELT drives frequency selection in the schedutil governor, we will have: freq_max set to | effect on DVFS --------------------+------------------ 1C turbo | power efficiency (lower freq choices) base freq | performance (higher util_avg, higher freq requests) 4C turbo | a bit of both 4C turbo proves to be a good compromise in a number of benchmarks (see below). +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Once an architecture implements a frequency scale-invariant utilization (the PELT signal util_avg), schedutil switches its frequency selection formula from freq_next = 1.25 * freq_curr * util [non-invariant util signal] to freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * util [invariant util signal] where, in the second formula, freq_max is set to the 1C turbo frequency (max turbo). The advantage of the second formula, whose usage we unlock with this patch, is that freq_next doesn't depend on the current frequency in an iterative fashion, but can jump to any frequency in a single update. This absence of feedback in the formula makes it quicker to react to utilization changes and more robust against pathological instabilities. Compare it to the update formula of intel_pstate/powersave: freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * Busy% where again freq_max is 1C turbo and Busy% is the percentage of time not spent idling (calculated with delta_MPERF / delta_TSC); essentially the same as invariant schedutil, and largely responsible for intel_pstate/powersave good reputation. The non-invariant schedutil formula is derived from the invariant one by approximating util_inv with util_raw * freq_curr / freq_max, but this has limitations. Testing shows improved performances due to better frequency selections when the machine is lightly loaded, and essentially no change in behaviour at saturation / overutilization. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ It's been shown that it is possible to create pathological scenarios where a CPU-bound task cannot reach max utilization, if the normalizing factor freq_max is fixed to a constant value (see [Lelli-2018]). If freq_max is set to 4C turbo as we do here, one needs to peg at least 5 cores in a package doing some busywork, and observe that none of those task will ever reach max util (1024) because they're all running at less than the 4C turbo frequency. While this concern still applies, we believe the performance benefit of frequency scale-invariant PELT signals outweights the cost of this limitation. [Lelli-2018] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180517150418.GF22493@localhost.localdomain/ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 5. PERFORMANCE TESTING +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 5.1 MACHINES ============ We tested the patch on three machines, with Skylake, Broadwell and Haswell CPUs. The details are below, together with the available turbo ratios as reported by the appropriate MSRs. * 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA: Single socket E3-1240 v5, Skylake 4 cores/8 threads Max EFFiciency, BASE frequency and available turbo levels (MHz): EFFIC 800 |******** BASE 3500 |*********************************** 4C 3700 |************************************* 3C 3800 |************************************** 2C 3900 |*************************************** 1C 3900 |*************************************** * 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA: Two sockets E5-2698 v4, 2x Broadwell 20 cores/40 threads Max EFFiciency, BASE frequency and available turbo levels (MHz): EFFIC 1200 |************ BASE 2200 |********************** 8C 2900 |***************************** 7C 3000 |****************************** 6C 3100 |******************************* 5C 3200 |******************************** 4C 3300 |********************************* 3C 3400 |********************************** 2C 3600 |************************************ 1C 3600 |************************************ * 48x-HASWELL-NUMA Two sockets E5-2670 v3, 2x Haswell 12 cores/24 threads Max EFFiciency, BASE frequency and available turbo levels (MHz): EFFIC 1200 |************ BASE 2300 |*********************** 12C 2600 |************************** 11C 2600 |************************** 10C 2600 |************************** 9C 2600 |************************** 8C 2600 |************************** 7C 2600 |************************** 6C 2600 |************************** 5C 2700 |*************************** 4C 2800 |**************************** 3C 2900 |***************************** 2C 3100 |******************************* 1C 3100 |******************************* 5.2 SETUP ========= * The baseline is Linux v5.2 with schedutil (non-invariant) and the intel_pstate driver in passive mode. * The rationale for choosing the various freq_max values to test have been to try all the 1-2-3-4C turbo levels (note that 1C and 2C turbo are identical on all machines), plus one more value closer to base_freq but still in the turbo range (8C turbo for both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA). * In addition we've run all tests with intel_pstate/powersave for comparison. * The filesystem is always XFS, the userspace is openSUSE Leap 15.1. * 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA is capable of HWP (Hardware-Managed P-States), so the runs with active intel_pstate on this machine use that. This gives, in terms of combinations tested on each machine: * 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA * Baseline: Linux v5.2, non-invariant schedutil, intel_pstate passive * intel_pstate active + powersave + HWP * invariant schedutil, freq_max = 1C turbo * invariant schedutil, freq_max = 3C turbo * invariant schedutil, freq_max = 4C turbo * both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA * [same as 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA, but no HWP capable] * invariant schedutil, freq_max = 8C turbo (which on 48x-HASWELL-NUMA is the same as 12C turbo, or "all cores turbo") 5.3 BENCHMARK RESULTS ===================== 5.3.1 NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS ------------------------ Tests that didn't show any measurable difference in performance on any of the test machines between non-invariant schedutil and our patch are: * NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) using either MPI or openMP for IPC, any computational kernel * flexible I/O (FIO) * hackbench (using threads or processes, and using pipes or sockets) 5.3.2 NON-NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS ---------------------------- What follow are summary tables where each benchmark result is given a score. * A tilde (~) means a neutral result, i.e. no difference from baseline. * Scores are computed with the ratio result_new / result_baseline, so a tilde means a score of 1.00. * The results in the score ratio are the geometric means of results running the benchmark with different parameters (eg: for kernbench: using 1, 2, 4, ... number of processes; for pgbench: varying the number of clients, and so on). * The first three tables show higher-is-better kind of tests (i.e. measured in operations/second), the subsequent three show lower-is-better kind of tests (i.e. the workload is fixed and we measure elapsed time, think kernbench). * "gitsource" is a name we made up for the test consisting in running the entire unit tests suite of the Git SCM and measuring how long it takes. We take it as a typical example of shell-intensive serialized workload. * In the "I_PSTATE" column we have the results for intel_pstate/powersave. Other columns show invariant schedutil for different values of freq_max. 4C turbo is circled as it's the value we've chosen for the final implementation. 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; higher is better) +------+ I_PSTATE 1C 3C | 4C | 8C pgbench-ro 1.14 ~ ~ | 1.11 | 1.14 pgbench-rw ~ ~ ~ | ~ | ~ netperf-udp 1.06 ~ 1.06 | 1.05 | 1.07 netperf-tcp ~ 1.03 ~ | 1.01 | 1.02 tbench4 1.57 1.18 1.22 | 1.30 | 1.56 +------+ 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA (comparison ratio; higher is better) +------+ I_PSTATE/HWP 1C 3C | 4C | pgbench-ro ~ ~ ~ | ~ | pgbench-rw ~ ~ ~ | ~ | netperf-udp ~ ~ ~ | ~ | netperf-tcp ~ ~ ~ | ~ | tbench4 1.30 1.14 1.14 | 1.16 | +------+ 48x-HASWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; higher is better) +------+ I_PSTATE 1C 3C | 4C | 12C pgbench-ro 1.15 ~ ~ | 1.06 | 1.16 pgbench-rw ~ ~ ~ | ~ | ~ netperf-udp 1.05 0.97 1.04 | 1.04 | 1.02 netperf-tcp 0.96 1.01 1.01 | 1.01 | 1.01 tbench4 1.50 1.05 1.13 | 1.13 | 1.25 +------+ In the table above we see that active intel_pstate is slightly better than our 4C-turbo patch (both in reference to the baseline non-invariant schedutil) on read-only pgbench and much better on tbench. Both cases are notable in which it shows that lowering our freq_max (to 8C-turbo and 12C-turbo on 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA respectively) helps invariant schedutil to get closer. If we ignore active intel_pstate and focus on the comparison with baseline alone, there are several instances of double-digit performance improvement. 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; lower is better) +------+ I_PSTATE 1C 3C | 4C | 8C dbench4 1.23 0.95 0.95 | 0.95 | 0.95 kernbench 0.93 0.83 0.83 | 0.83 | 0.82 gitsource 0.98 0.49 0.49 | 0.49 | 0.48 +------+ 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA (comparison ratio; lower is better) +------+ I_PSTATE/HWP 1C 3C | 4C | dbench4 ~ ~ ~ | ~ | kernbench ~ ~ ~ | ~ | gitsource 0.92 0.55 0.55 | 0.55 | +------+ 48x-HASWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; lower is better) +------+ I_PSTATE 1C 3C | 4C | 8C dbench4 ~ ~ ~ | ~ | ~ kernbench 0.94 0.90 0.89 | 0.90 | 0.90 gitsource 0.97 0.69 0.69 | 0.69 | 0.69 +------+ dbench is not very remarkable here, unless we notice how poorly active intel_pstate is performing on 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA: 23% regression versus non-invariant schedutil. We repeated that run getting consistent results. Out of scope for the patch at hand, but deserving future investigation. Other than that, we previously ran this campaign with Linux v5.0 and saw the patch doing better on dbench a the time. We haven't checked closely and can only speculate at this point. On the NUMA boxes kernbench gets 10-15% improvements on average; we'll see in the detailed tables that the gains concentrate on low process counts (lightly loaded machines). The test we call "gitsource" (running the git unit test suite, a long-running single-threaded shell script) appears rather spectacular in this table (gains of 30-50% depending on the machine). It is to be noted, however, that gitsource has no adjustable parameters (such as the number of jobs in kernbench, which we average over in order to get a single-number summary score) and is exactly the kind of low-parallelism workload that benefits the most from this patch. When looking at the detailed tables of kernbench or tbench4, at low process or client counts one can see similar numbers. 5.3.3 SELECTION OF DETAILED RESULTS ----------------------------------- Machine : 48x-HASWELL-NUMA Benchmark : tbench4 (i.e. dbench4 over the network, actually loopback) Varying parameter : number of clients Unit : MB/sec (higher is better) 5.2.0 vanilla (BASELINE) 5.2.0 intel_pstate 5.2.0 1C-turbo - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hmean 1 126.73 +- 0.31% ( ) 315.91 +- 0.66% ( 149.28%) 125.03 +- 0.76% ( -1.34%) Hmean 2 258.04 +- 0.62% ( ) 614.16 +- 0.51% ( 138.01%) 269.58 +- 1.45% ( 4.47%) Hmean 4 514.30 +- 0.67% ( ) 1146.58 +- 0.54% ( 122.94%) 533.84 +- 1.99% ( 3.80%) Hmean 8 1111.38 +- 2.52% ( ) 2159.78 +- 0.38% ( 94.33%) 1359.92 +- 1.56% ( 22.36%) Hmean 16 2286.47 +- 1.36% ( ) 3338.29 +- 0.21% ( 46.00%) 2720.20 +- 0.52% ( 18.97%) Hmean 32 4704.84 +- 0.35% ( ) 4759.03 +- 0.43% ( 1.15%) 4774.48 +- 0.30% ( 1.48%) Hmean 64 7578.04 +- 0.27% ( ) 7533.70 +- 0.43% ( -0.59%) 7462.17 +- 0.65% ( -1.53%) Hmean 128 6998.52 +- 0.16% ( ) 6987.59 +- 0.12% ( -0.16%) 6909.17 +- 0.14% ( -1.28%) Hmean 192 6901.35 +- 0.25% ( ) 6913.16 +- 0.10% ( 0.17%) 6855.47 +- 0.21% ( -0.66%) 5.2.0 3C-turbo 5.2.0 4C-turbo 5.2.0 12C-turbo - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hmean 1 128.43 +- 0.28% ( 1.34%) 130.64 +- 3.81% ( 3.09%) 153.71 +- 5.89% ( 21.30%) Hmean 2 311.70 +- 6.15% ( 20.79%) 281.66 +- 3.40% ( 9.15%) 305.08 +- 5.70% ( 18.23%) Hmean 4 641.98 +- 2.32% ( 24.83%) 623.88 +- 5.28% ( 21.31%) 906.84 +- 4.65% ( 76.32%) Hmean 8 1633.31 +- 1.56% ( 46.96%) 1714.16 +- 0.93% ( 54.24%) 2095.74 +- 0.47% ( 88.57%) Hmean 16 3047.24 +- 0.42% ( 33.27%) 3155.02 +- 0.30% ( 37.99%) 3634.58 +- 0.15% ( 58.96%) Hmean 32 4734.31 +- 0.60% ( 0.63%) 4804.38 +- 0.23% ( 2.12%) 4674.62 +- 0.27% ( -0.64%) Hmean 64 7699.74 +- 0.35% ( 1.61%) 7499.72 +- 0.34% ( -1.03%) 7659.03 +- 0.25% ( 1.07%) Hmean 128 6935.18 +- 0.15% ( -0.91%) 6942.54 +- 0.10% ( -0.80%) 7004.85 +- 0.12% ( 0.09%) Hmean 192 6901.62 +- 0.12% ( 0.00%) 6856.93 +- 0.10% ( -0.64%) 6978.74 +- 0.10% ( 1.12%) This is one of the cases where the patch still can't surpass active intel_pstate, not even when freq_max is as low as 12C-turbo.

Also, we don't have a power meter available in the lab so RAPL is the best we have. turbostat sampled average power every 10 seconds for the entire duration of each benchmark.

Merge branch 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Cleanup the apic IPI implementation by removing duplicated code and consolidating the functions into the APIC core. - Implement a safe variant of the IPI broadcast mode. Contrary to earlier attempts this uses the core tracking of which CPUs have been brought online at least once so that a broadcast does not end up in some dead end in BIOS/SMM code when the CPU is still waiting for init. Once all CPUs have been brought up once, IPI broadcasting is enabled. Before that regular one by one IPIs are issued. - Drop the paravirt CR8 related functions as they have no user anymore - Initialize the APIC TPR to block interrupt 16-31 as they are reserved for CPU exceptions and should never be raised by any well behaving device. - Emit a warning when vector space exhaustion breaks the admin set affinity of an interrupt. - Make sure to use the NMI fallback when shutdown via reboot vector IPI fails. The original code had conditions which prevent the code path to be reached. - Annotate various APIC config variables as RO after init.

x86/hotplug: Silence APIC and NMI when CPU is dead
In order to support IPI/NMI broadcasting via the shorthand mechanism side effects of shorthands need to be mitigated: Shorthand IPIs and NMIs hit all CPUs including unplugged CPUs Neither of those can be handled on unplugged CPUs for obvious reasons. It would be trivial to just fully disable the APIC via the enable bit in MSR_APICBASE. But that's not possible because clearing that bit on systems based on the 3 wire APIC bus would require a hardware reset to bring it back as the APIC would lose track of bus arbitration. On systems with FSB delivery APICBASE could be disabled, but it has to be guaranteed that no interrupt is sent to the APIC while in that state and it's not clear from the SDM whether it still responds to INIT/SIPI messages. Therefore stay on the safe side and switch the APIC into soft disabled mode so it won't deliver any regular vector to the CPU. NMIs are still propagated to the 'dead' CPUs. To mitigate that add a check for the CPU being offline on early nmi entry and if so bail. Note, this cannot use the stop/restart_nmi() magic which is used in the alternatives code. A dead CPU cannot invoke nmi_enter() or anything else due to RCU and other reasons.

x86/asm: Move native_write_cr0/4() out of line
The pinning of sensitive CR0 and CR4 bits caused a boot crash when loading the kvm_intel module on a kernel compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n. The reason is that the static key which controls the pinning is marked RO after init. The kvm_intel module contains a CR4 write which requires to update the static key entry list. That obviously does not work when the key is in a RO section. With CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled this does not happen because the CR4 write uses the paravirt indirection and the actual write function is built in. As the key is intended to be immutable after init, move native_write_cr0/4() out of line. While at it consolidate the update of the cr4 shadow variable and store the value right away when the pinning is initialized on a booting CPU. No point in reading it back 20 instructions later. This allows to confine the static key and the pinning variable to cpu/common and allows to mark them static. Fixes: |

x86/asm: Pin sensitive CR4 bits
Several recent exploits have used direct calls to the native_write_cr4() function to disable SMEP and SMAP before then continuing their exploits using userspace memory access. Direct calls of this form can be mitigate by pinning bits of CR4 so that they cannot be changed through a common function. This is not intended to be a general ROP protection (which would require CFI to defend against properly), but rather a way to avoid trivial direct function calling (or CFI bypasses via a matching function prototype) as seen in: https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2017/05/exploiting-linux-kernel-via-packet.html (https://github.com/xairy/kernel-exploits/tree/master/CVE-2017-7308) The goals of this change: - Pin specific bits (SMEP, SMAP, and UMIP) when writing CR4. - Avoid setting the bits too early (they must become pinned only after CPU feature detection and selection has finished). - Pinning mask needs to be read-only during normal runtime. - Pinning needs to be checked after write to validate the cr4 state Using __ro_after_init on the mask is done so it can't be first disabled with a malicious write. Since these bits are global state (once established by the boot CPU and kernel boot parameters), they are safe to write to secondary CPUs before those CPUs have finished feature detection. As such, the bits are set at the first cr4 write, so that cr4 write bugs can be detected (instead of silently papered over). This uses a few bytes less storage of a location we don't have: read-only per-CPU data. A check is performed after the register write because an attack could just skip directly to the register write. Such a direct jump is possible because of how this function may be built by the compiler (especially due to the removal of frame pointers) where it doesn't add a stack frame (function exit may only be a retq without pops) which is sufficient for trivial exploitation like in the timer overwrites mentioned above). The asm argument constraints gain the "+" modifier to convince the compiler that it shouldn't make ordering assumptions about the arguments or memory, and treat them as changed.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE
Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3. All these places for replacement were found by running the following grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review. 1. git grep "nid == -1" 2. git grep "node == -1" 3. git grep "nid = -1" 4. git grep "node = -1" This patch (of 2): At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting them to a common definition.

x86/topology: Use total_cpus for max logical packages calculation
nr_cpu_ids can be limited on the command line via nr_cpus=. This can break the logical package management because it results in a smaller number of packages while in kdump kernel. Check below case: There is a two sockets system, each socket has 8 cores, which has 16 logical cpus while HT was turn on. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 cores on socket 0 threads on socket 0 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 cores on socket 1 threads on socket 1 While starting the kdump kernel with command line option nr_cpus=16 panic was triggered on one of the cpus 24-31 eg. 26, then online cpu will be 1-15, 26(cpu 0 was disabled in kdump), ncpus will be 16 and __max_logical_packages will be 1, but actually two packages were booted on. This issue can reproduced by set kdump option nr_cpus=<real physical core numbers>, and then trigger panic on last socket's thread, for example: taskset -c 26 echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger Use total_cpus which will not be limited by nr_cpus command line to calculate the value of __max_logical_packages.

x86: Don't include linux/irq.h from asm/hardirq.h
The next patch in this series will have to make the definition of irq_cpustat_t available to entering_irq(). Inclusion of asm/hardirq.h into asm/apic.h would cause circular header dependencies like asm/smp.h asm/apic.h asm/hardirq.h linux/irq.h linux/topology.h linux/smp.h asm/smp.h or linux/gfp.h linux/mmzone.h asm/mmzone.h asm/mmzone_64.h asm/smp.h asm/apic.h asm/hardirq.h linux/irq.h linux/irqdesc.h linux/kobject.h linux/sysfs.h linux/kernfs.h linux/idr.h linux/gfp.h and others. This causes compilation errors because of the header guards becoming effective in the second inclusion: symbols/macros that had been defined before wouldn't be available to intermediate headers in the #include chain anymore. A possible workaround would be to move the definition of irq_cpustat_t into its own header and include that from both, asm/hardirq.h and asm/apic.h. However, this wouldn't solve the real problem, namely asm/harirq.h unnecessarily pulling in all the linux/irq.h cruft: nothing in asm/hardirq.h itself requires it. Also, note that there are some other archs, like e.g. arm64, which don't have that #include in their asm/hardirq.h. Remove the linux/irq.h #include from x86' asm/hardirq.h. Fix resulting compilation errors by adding appropriate #includes to *.c files as needed. Note that some of these *.c files could be cleaned up a bit wrt. to their set of #includes, but that should better be done from separate patches, if at all.

x86/speculation: Handle HT correctly on AMD
The AMD64_LS_CFG MSR is a per core MSR on Family 17H CPUs. That means when hyperthreading is enabled the SSBD bit toggle needs to take both cores into account. Otherwise the following situation can happen: CPU0 CPU1 disable SSB disable SSB enable SSB <- Enables it for the Core, i.e. for CPU0 as well So after the SSB enable on CPU1 the task on CPU0 runs with SSB enabled again. On Intel the SSBD control is per core as well, but the synchronization logic is implemented behind the per thread SPEC_CTRL MSR. It works like this: CORE_SPEC_CTRL = THREAD0_SPEC_CTRL | THREAD1_SPEC_CTRL i.e. if one of the threads enables a mitigation then this affects both and the mitigation is only disabled in the core when both threads disabled it. Add the necessary synchronization logic for AMD family 17H. Unfortunately that requires a spinlock to serialize the access to the MSR, but the locks are only shared between siblings.

x86/smpboot: Don't use mwait_play_dead() on AMD systems
Recent AMD systems support using MWAIT for C1 state. However, MWAIT will not allow deeper cstates than C1 on current systems. play_dead() expects to use the deepest state available. The deepest state available on AMD systems is reached through SystemIO or HALT. If MWAIT is available, it is preferred over the other methods, so the CPU never reaches the deepest possible state. Don't try to use MWAIT to play_dead() on AMD systems. Instead, use CPUIDLE to enter the deepest state advertised by firmware. If CPUIDLE is not available then fallback to HALT.

x86,sched: Allow topologies where NUMA nodes share an LLC
Intel's Skylake Server CPUs have a different LLC topology than previous generations. When in Sub-NUMA-Clustering (SNC) mode, the package is divided into two "slices", each containing half the cores, half the LLC, and one memory controller and each slice is enumerated to Linux as a NUMA node. This is similar to how the cores and LLC were arranged for the Cluster-On-Die (CoD) feature. CoD allowed the same cache line to be present in each half of the LLC. But, with SNC, each line is only ever present in *one* slice. This means that the portion of the LLC *available* to a CPU depends on the data being accessed: Remote socket: entire package LLC is shared Local socket->local slice: data goes into local slice LLC Local socket->remote slice: data goes into remote-slice LLC. Slightly higher latency than local slice LLC. The biggest implication from this is that a process accessing all NUMA-local memory only sees half the LLC capacity. The CPU describes its cache hierarchy with the CPUID instruction. One of the CPUID leaves enumerates the "logical processors sharing this cache". This information is used for scheduling decisions so that tasks move more freely between CPUs sharing the cache. But, the CPUID for the SNC configuration discussed above enumerates the LLC as being shared by the entire package. This is not 100% precise because the entire cache is not usable by all accesses. But, it *is* the way the hardware enumerates itself, and this is not likely to change. The userspace visible impact of all the above is that the sysfs info reports the entire LLC as being available to the entire package. As noted above, this is not true for local socket accesses. This patch does not correct the sysfs info. It is the same, pre and post patch. The current code emits the following warning: sched: CPU #3's llc-sibling CPU #0 is not on the same node! [node: 1 != 0]. Ignoring dependency. The warning is coming from the topology_sane() check in smpboot.c because the topology is not matching the expectations of the model for obvious reasons. To fix this, add a vendor and model specific check to never call topology_sane() for these systems. Also, just like "Cluster-on-Die" disable the "coregroup" sched_domain_topology_level and use NUMA information from the SRAT alone. This is OK at least on the hardware we are immediately concerned about because the LLC sharing happens at both the slice and at the package level, which are also NUMA boundaries.

x86/smpboot: Fix uncore_pci_remove() indexing bug when hot-removing a physical CPU
When a physical CPU is hot-removed, the following warning messages
are shown while the uncore device is removed in uncore_pci_remove():

When uncore_pci_remove() runs, it tries to get the package ID to
clear the value of uncore_extra_pci_dev[].dev[] by using
topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(). The warning messesages are
shown because topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() returns -1.
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c:
static void uncore_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
...
phys_id = uncore_pcibus_to_physid(pdev->bus);
...
pkg = topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(phys_id); // returns -1
for (i = 0; i < UNCORE_EXTRA_PCI_DEV_MAX; i++) {
if (uncore_extra_pci_dev[pkg].dev[i] == pdev) {
uncore_extra_pci_dev[pkg].dev[i] = NULL;
break;
}
}
WARN_ON_ONCE(i >= UNCORE_EXTRA_PCI_DEV_MAX); // <=========== HERE!!
topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() tries to find
cpuinfo_x86->phys_proc_id that matches the phys_pkg argument.
arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c:
int topology_phys_to_logical_pkg(unsigned int phys_pkg)
{
int cpu;
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = &cpu_data(cpu);
if (c->initialized && c->phys_proc_id == phys_pkg)
return c->logical_proc_id;
}
return -1;
}
However, the phys_proc_id was already set to 0 by remove_siblinginfo()
when the CPU was offlined.
So, topology_phys_to_logical_pkg() cannot find the correct
logical_proc_id and always returns -1.
As the result, uncore_pci_remove() calls WARN_ON_ONCE() and the warning
messages are shown.
What is worse is that the bogus 'pkg' index results in two bugs:
- We dereference uncore_extra_pci_dev[] with a negative index
- We fail to clean up a stale pointer in uncore_extra_pci_dev[][]
To fix these bugs, remove the clearing of ->phys_proc_id from remove_siblinginfo().
This should not cause any problems, because ->phys_proc_id is not
used after it is hot-removed and it is re-set while hot-adding.

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner: "Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date, but a late fixup made that moot. - Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate address space.

The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of 32bit wraparounds. - Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already, but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with the fixmap code - A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of the TLB functions should be used for what. - Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces confusing. - Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(), which is only invoked on fork(). - Make vysycall more robust. - A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out of sync with the index enums. - Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI. - Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI integration simpler and header files less convoluted. - Documentation fixes and clarifications" * 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (24 commits) x86/cpu_entry_area: Prevent wraparound in setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes() on 32bit init: Invoke init_espfix_bsp() from mm_init() x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it to a separate unit x86/mm: Create asm/invpcid.h x86/mm: Put MMU to hardware ASID translation in one place x86/mm: Remove hard-coded ASID limit checks x86/mm: Move the CR3 construction functions to tlbflush.h x86/mm: Add comments to clarify which TLB-flush functions are supposed to flush what x86/mm: Remove superfluous barriers x86/mm: Use __flush_tlb_one() for kernel memory x86/microcode: Dont abuse the TLB-flush interface x86/uv: Use the right TLB-flush API x86/entry: Rename SYSENTER_stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA_entry_stack x86/doc: Remove obvious weirdnesses from the x86 MM layout documentation x86/mm/64: Improve the memory map documentation x86/ldt: Prevent LDT inheritance on exec x86/ldt: Rework locking arch, mm: Allow arch_dup_mmap() to fail x86/vsyscall/64: Warn and fail vsyscall emulation in NATIVE mode ... |

x86/idt: Load idt early in start_secondary
On a secondary, idt is first loaded in cpu_init() with load_current_idt(),
i.e. no exceptions can be handled before that point.
The conversion of WARN() to use UD requires the IDT being loaded earlier as
any warning between start_secondary() and load_curren_idt() in cpu_init()
will result in an unhandled @UD exception and therefore fail the bringup of
the CPU.
Install the IDT handlers right in start_secondary() before calling cpu_init().

A system booted with a small number of cores enabled per package panics because the estimate of __max_logical_packages is too low. This occurs when the total number of active cores across all packages is less than the maximum core count for a single package. e.g.: On a 4 package system with 20 cores/package where only 4 cores are enabled on each package, the value of __max_logical_packages is calculated as DIV_ROUND_UP(16 / 20) = 1 and not 4.

Merge branch 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner: "This update provides a major overhaul of the APIC initialization and vector allocation code: - Unification of the APIC and interrupt mode setup which was scattered all over the place and was hard to follow. This also distangles the timer setup from the APIC initialization which brings a clear separation of functionality. Great detective work from Dou Lyiang! - Refactoring of the x86 vector allocation mechanism. The existing code was based on nested loops and rather convoluted APIC callbacks which had a horrible worst case behaviour and tried to serve all different use cases in one go. This led to quite odd hacks when supporting the new managed interupt facility for multiqueue devices and made it more or less impossible to deal with the vector space exhaustion which was a major roadblock for server hibernation. Aside of that the code dealing with cpu hotplug and the system vectors was disconnected from the actual vector management and allocation code, which made it hard to follow and maintain. Utilizing the new bitmap matrix allocator core mechanism, the new allocator and management code consolidates the handling of system vectors, legacy vectors, cpu hotplug mechanisms and the actual allocation which needs to be aware of system and legacy vectors and hotplug constraints into a single consistent entity. This has one visible change: The support for multi CPU targets of interrupts, which is only available on a certain subset of CPUs/APIC variants has been removed in favour of single interrupt targets. A proper analysis of the multi CPU target feature revealed that there is no real advantage as the vast majority of interrupts end up on the CPU with the lowest APIC id in the set of target CPUs anyway. That change was agreed on by the relevant folks and allowed to simplify the implementation significantly and to replace rather fragile constructs like the vector cleanup IPI with straight forward and solid code. Furthermore this allowed to cleanly separate the allocation details for legacy, normal and managed interrupts: * Legacy interrupts are not longer wasting 16 vectors unconditionally * Managed interrupts have now a guaranteed vector reservation, but the actual vector assignment happens when the interrupt is requested. It's guaranteed not to fail. * Normal interrupts no longer allocate vectors unconditionally when the interrupt is set up (IO/APIC init or MSI(X) enable). The mechanism has been switched to a best effort reservation mode. The actual allocation happens when the interrupt is requested. Contrary to managed interrupts the request can fail due to vector space exhaustion, but drivers must handle a fail of request_irq() anyway. When the interrupt is freed, the vector is handed back as well. This solves a long standing problem with large unconditional vector allocations for a certain class of enterprise devices which prevented server hibernation due to vector space exhaustion when the unused allocated vectors had to be migrated to CPU0 while unplugging all non boot CPUs. The code has been equipped with trace points and detailed debugfs information to aid analysis of the vector space" * 'x86-apic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (60 commits) x86/vector/msi: Select CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_RESERVATION_MODE PCI/MSI: Set MSI_FLAG_MUST_REACTIVATE in core code genirq: Add config option for reservation mode x86/vector: Use correct per cpu variable in free_moved_vector() x86/apic/vector: Ignore set_affinity call for inactive interrupts x86/apic: Fix spelling mistake: "symmectic" -> "symmetric" x86/apic: Use dead_cpu instead of current CPU when cleaning up ACPI/init: Invoke early ACPI initialization earlier x86/vector: Respect affinity mask in irq descriptor x86/irq: Simplify hotplug vector accounting x86/vector: Switch IOAPIC to global reservation mode x86/vector/msi: Switch to global reservation mode x86/vector: Handle managed interrupts proper x86/io_apic: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() iommu/amd: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() iommu/vt-d: Reevaluate vector configuration on activate() x86/apic/msi: Force reactivation of interrupts at startup time x86/vector: Untangle internal state from irq_cfg x86/vector: Compile SMP only code conditionally x86/apic: Remove unused callbacks ... |

x86: Use lockdep to assert IRQs are disabled/enabled
Use lockdep to check that IRQs are enabled or disabled as expected. This way the sanity check only shows overhead when concurrency correctness debug code is enabled. It also makes no more sense to fix the IRQ flags when a bug is detected as the assertion is now pure config-dependent debugging. And to quote Peter Zijlstra: The whole if !disabled, disable logic is uber paranoid programming, but I don't think we've ever seen that WARN trigger, and if it does (and then burns the kernel) we at least know what happend.

x86/smpboot: Make optimization of delay calibration work correctly
If the TSC has constant frequency then the delay calibration can be skipped
when it has been calibrated for a package already. This is checked in
calibrate_delay_is_known(), but that function is buggy in two aspects:
It returns 'false' if
(!tsc_disabled && !cpu_has(&cpu_data(cpu), X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC)
which is obviously the reverse of the intended check and the check for the
sibling mask cannot work either because the topology links have not been
set up yet.
Correct the condition and move the call to set_cpu_sibling_map() before
invoking calibrate_delay() so the sibling check works correctly.

locking/paravirt: Use new static key for controlling call of virt_spin_lock()
There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" boot parameter). Today this has the downside of falling back to unfair test and set scheme for qspinlocks due to virt_spin_lock() detecting the virtualized environment. Add a static key controlling whether virt_spin_lock() should be called or not. When running on bare metal set the new key to false.

x86/irq: Simplify hotplug vector accounting
Before a CPU is taken offline the number of active interrupt vectors on the outgoing CPU and the number of vectors which are available on the other online CPUs are counted and compared. If the active vectors are more than the available vectors on the other CPUs then the CPU hot-unplug operation is aborted. This again uses loop based search and is inaccurate. The bitmap matrix allocator has accurate accounting information and can tell exactly whether the vector space is sufficient or not. Emit a message when the number of globaly reserved (unallocated) vectors is larger than the number of available vectors after offlining a CPU because after that point request_irq() might fail.

x86/apic: Initialize interrupt mode after timer init
A cold or warm boot through BIOS sets the APIC in default interrupt delivery mode. A dump-capture kernel will not go through a BIOS reset and leave the interrupt delivery mode in the state which was active on the crashed kernel, but the dump kernel startup code assumes default delivery mode which can result in interrupt delivery/handling to fail. To solve this problem, it's required to set up the final interrupt delivery mode as soon as possible. As IOAPIC setup needs the timer initialized for verifying the timer interrupt delivery mode, the earliest point is right after timer setup in late_time_init(). That results in the following init order: 1) Set up the legacy timer, if applicable on the platform 2) Set up APIC/IOAPIC which includes the verification of the legacy timer interrupt delivery. 3) TSC calibration 4) Local APIC timer setup Signed-off-by: Dou Liyang <douly.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: yinghai@kernel.org Cc: bhe@redhat.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1505293975-26005-12-git-send-email-douly.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com |
