In the situation when we apply early microcode but do *not* apply late
microcode, we fail to update the BSP's microcode on resume because we
haven't initialized the uci->mc microcode pointer. So, in order to
alleviate that, we go and dig out the stashed microcode patch during
early boot. It is basically the same thing that is done on the APs early
during boot so do that too here.

The current x86 instruction decoder steps along through the
instruction stream but always ensures that it never steps farther
than the largest possible instruction size (MAX_INSN_SIZE).
The MPX code is now going to be doing some decoding of userspace
instructions. We copy those from userspace in to the kernel and
they're obviously completely untrusted coming from userspace. In
addition to the constraint that instructions can only be so long,
we also have to be aware of how long the buffer is that came in
from userspace. This _looks_ to be similar to what the perf and
kprobes is doing, but it's unclear to me whether they are
affected.
The whole reason we need this is that it is perfectly valid to be
executing an instruction within MAX_INSN_SIZE bytes of an
unreadable page. We should be able to gracefully handle short
reads in those cases.
This adds support to the decoder to record how long the buffer
being decoded is and to refuse to "validate" the instruction if
we would have gone over the end of the buffer to decode it.
The kprobes code probably needs to be looked at here a bit more
carefully. This patch still respects the MAX_INSN_SIZE limit
there but the kprobes code does look like it might be able to
be a bit more strict than it currently is.

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. ]

initialization MSR would #GP at boot. This did not happen on all

Writing the three initialization bits bit-by-bit seems to avoid the

Konrad triggered the following splat below in a 32-bit guest on an AMD
box. As it turns out, in save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() we're using the
*physical* address of the container *after* we have enabled paging and
thus we #PF in load_microcode_amd() when trying to access the microcode
container in the ramdisk range.
Because the ramdisk is exactly there:
[ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x35e04000-0x36ef9fff]
and we fault at 0x35e04304.
And since this guest doesn't relocate the ramdisk, we don't do the
computation which will give us the correct virtual address and we end up
with the PA.
So, we should actually be using virtual addresses on 32-bit too by the
time we're freeing the initrd. Do that then!

Peter Zijlstra has attempted to help out, to clean up the mess:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/28/543
But has not received helpful and constructive replies which makes
me doubt wether it can all be finished in time until v3.18 is
released.
Despite various review feedback the author (Andi Kleen) has answered
only few of the review questions and has generally been uncooperative,
only giving replies when prompted repeatedly, and only giving minimal
answers instead of constructively explaining and helping along the effort.
That kind of behavior is not acceptable.
There's also a boot crash on Intel E5-1630 v3 CPUs reported for another
commit from Andi Kleen:
e735b9db12 ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Haswell-EP uncore support")
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/22/730
Which is not yet resolved. The uncore driver is independent in theory,
but the crash makes me worry about how well all these patches were
tested and makes me uneasy about the level of interminging that the
Broadwell and Haswell code has received by the commits above.
As a first step to resolve the mess revert the Broadwell client commits
back to the v3.17 version, before we run out of time and problematic
code hits a stable upstream kernel.
( If the Haswell-EP crash is not resolved via a simple fix then we'll have
to revert the Haswell-EP uncore driver as well. )
The Broadwell client series has to be submitted in a clean fashion, with
single, well documented changes per patch. If they are submitted in time
and are accepted during review then they can possibly go into v3.19 but
will need additional scrutiny due to the rocky history of this patch set.

of simply using the bank which reports the last error causing the

Digging through git history, it pointed to

which added that functionality. The problem with this, however, is that
tools don't know about software-defined banks and get puzzled. So drop
that K8_MCE_THRESHOLD_BASE and simply use the hw bank reporting the
thresholding interrupt.

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"

Intel processors which don't report cache information via cpuid(2)
or cpuid(4) need quirk code in the legacy_cache_size callback to
report this data. For Intel that callback is is intel_size_cache().
This patch enables calling of cpu_detect_cache_sizes() inside of
init_intel() and hence the calling of the legacy_cache callback in
intel_size_cache(). Adding this call will ensure that PIII Tualatin
currently in intel_size_cache() and Quark SoC X1000 being added to
intel_size_cache() in this patch will report their respective cache
sizes.
This model of calling cpu_detect_cache_sizes() is consistent with
AMD/Via/Cirix/Transmeta and Centaur.
Also added is a string to idenitfy the Quark as Quark SoC X1000
giving better and more descriptive output via /proc/cpuinfo
Adding cpu_detect_cache_sizes to init_intel() will enable calling
of intel_size_cache() on Intel processors which currently no code
can reach. Therefore this patch will also re-enable reporting
of PIII Tualatin cache size information as well as add
Quark SoC X1000 support.

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

PMU checking can fail due to various reasons. On native machine, this
is mostly caused by faulty hardware and it is reasonable to use
KERN_ERR in reporting. However, when kernel is running on virtualized
environment, this checking can fail if virtual PMU is not supported
(e.g. KVM on AMD host). It is annoying to see an error message on
splash screen, even though we know such failure is benign on
virtualized environment.
This patch checks if the kernel is running in a virtualized environment.
If so, it will use KERN_INFO in reporting, which reduces the syslog
priority of them. This patch was tested successfully on KVM.

I was looking for the trinity oops cause in the uncore driver.
(so far didn't found it)
However I found this tiny race: when a box is set up two threads on the
same CPU, they may be setting up the box in parallel (e.g. with kernel
preemption). This could lead to the reference count being increasing
too much. Always recheck there is no existing cpu reference inside the lock.

This patch restructures the memory controller (IMC) uncore PMU support
for client SNB/IVB/HSW processors. The main change is that it can now
cope with more than one PCI device ID per processor model. There are
many flavors of memory controllers for each processor. They have
different PCI device ID, yet they behave the same w.r.t. the memory
controller PMU that we are interested in.
The patch now supports two distinct memory controllers for IVB
processors: one for mobile, one for desktop.

Use the newly added Broadwell cache event list for Haswell too.
All Haswell and Broadwell events and offcore masks used in these lists
are identical.
However Haswell is very different from the Sandy Bridge
list that was used previously. That fixes a wide range of mis-counting
cache events.
The node events are now only for retired memory events, so prefetching
and speculative memory accesses are not included. They are PEBS
capable now, which makes it much easier to sample for them, plus it's
possible to create address maps with -d.
The prefetch events are gone now. They way the hardware counts
them is very misleading (some prefetches included, others not), so
it seemed best to leave them out.

On Broadwell INST_RETIRED.ALL cannot be used with any period
that doesn't have the lowest 6 bits cleared. And the period
should not be smaller than 128.
Add a new callback to enforce this, and set it for Broadwell.
This is erratum BDM57 and BDM11.
How does this handle the case when an app requests a specific
period with some of the bottom bits set
The apps thinks it is sampling at X occurences per sample, when it is
in fact at X - 63 (worst case).
Short answer:
Any useful instruction sampling period needs to be 4-6 orders
of magnitude larger than 128, as an PMI every 128 instructions
would instantly overwhelm the system and be throttled.
So the +-64 error from this is really small compared to the
period, much smaller than normal system jitter.
Long answer:
<write up by Peter:>
IFF we guarantee perf_event_attr::sample_period >= 128.
Suppose we start out with sample_period=192; then we'll set period_left
to 192, we'll end up with left = 128 (we truncate the lower bits). We
get an interrupt, find that period_left = 64 (>0 so we return 0 and
don't get an overflow handler), up that to 128. Then we trigger again,
at n=256. Then we find period_left = -64 (<=0 so we return 1 and do get
an overflow). We increment with sample_period so we get left = 128. We
fire again, at n=384, period_left = 0 (<=0 so we return 1 and get an
overflow). And on and on.
So while the individual interrupts are 'wrong' we get then with
interval=256,128 in exactly the right ratio to average out at 192. And
this works for everything >=128.
So the num_samples*fixed_period thing is still entirely correct +- 127,
which is good enough I'd say, as you already have that error anyhow.
So no need to 'fix' the tools, al we need to do is refuse to create
INST_RETIRED:ALL events with sample_period < 128.

Add Broadwell support for Broadwell Client to perf. This is very
similar to Haswell. It uses a new cache event table, because there
were various changes there.
The constraint list has one new event that needs to be handled over
Haswell.
The PEBS event list is the same, so we reuse Haswell's.

71 is a Broadwell, not a Haswell. The model number was added
by mistake earlier.
Remove it for now, until it can be re-added later with
real Broadwell support.
In practice it does not cause a lot of issues because the Broadwell
PMU is very similar to Haswell, but some details were wrong,
and it's better to handle it correctly.

On x86_64, kernel text mappings are mapped read-only with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
In that case, KVM will fail to patch VMCALL instructions to VMMCALL
as required on AMD processors.
The failure mode is currently a divide-by-zero exception, which obviously
is a KVM bug that has to be fixed. However, picking the right instruction
between VMCALL and VMMCALL will be faster and will help if you cannot upgrade
the hypervisor.

intel_init_thermal() is called from a) at the time of system initializing
and b) at the time of system resume to initialize thermal
monitoring.
In case when thermal monitoring is handled by SMI, we get to know it via
printk(). Currently it gives the message at both cases, but its okay if
we get it only once and no need to get the same message at every time
system resumes.
So, limit showing this message only at system boot time by avoid showing
at system resume and reduce abusing kernel log buffer.

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.

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!

The new split Intel uncore driver code that recently went

complains about.
uncore_pmu_register() can be called from uncore_pci_probe,()
which is not __init and can be called from pci driver ->probe.
I'm not fully sure if it's actually possible to call the probe

__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)

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

This patch exposes two basic events for Ivytown IMC uncore PMU:
- cas_count_read: number of full-cache line reads to memory controller
- cas_count_write: number of full-cache line writes to memory controller
Those events use the same encoding as for SNB-EP, so reuse the same
event table. See specification in:
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/manuals/xeon-e5-2600-v2-uncore-manual.pdf
By aggregating all the read and write events from all the memory controllers
of each processor socket, one can determine the total memory bandwidth utilization.

This facility was already enabled earlier with the original Haswell
perf changes.
However these addresses were always reports as stores by perf, which is wrong,
as they could be loads too. The hardware does not distinguish loads and stores
for these instructions, so there's no (cheap) way for the profiler
to find out.
Change the type to PERF_MEM_OP_NA instead.

The basic idea is that it does not make sense to list all PEBS
events individually. The list is very long, sometimes outdated
and the hardware doesn't need it. If an event does not support
PEBS it will just not count, there is no security issue.
We need to only list events that something special, like
supporting load or store addresses.
This vastly simplifies the PEBS event selection. It also
speeds up the scheduling because the scheduler doesn't
have to walk as many constraints.
Bugs fixed:
- We do not allow setting forbidden flags with PEBS anymore
(SDM 18.9.4), except for the special cycle event.
This is done using a new constraint macro that also
matches on the event flags.
- Correct DataLA and load/store/na flags reporting on Haswell
[Requires a followon patch]
- We did not allow all PEBS events on Haswell:
We were missing some valid subevents in d1-d2 (MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED.*,
MEM_LOAD_UOPS_RETIRED_L3_HIT_RETIRED.*)
This includes the changes proposed by Stephane earlier and obsoletes
his patchkit (except for some changes on pre Sandy Bridge/Silvermont
CPUs)
I only did Sandy Bridge and Silvermont and later so far, mostly because these
are the parts I could directly confirm the hardware behavior with hardware
architects. Also I do not believe the older CPUs have any
missing events in their PEBS list, so there's no pressing
need to change them.
I did not implement the flag proposed by Peter to allow
setting forbidden flags. If really needed this could
be implemented on to of this patch.
v2: Fix broken store events on SNB/IVB (Stephane Eranian)
v3: More fixes. Rename some arguments (Stephane Eranian)
v4: List most Haswell events individually again to report
memory operation type correctly.
Add new flags to describe load/store/na for datala.

So for example cycles:pp doesn't work.
However this is not needed with PEBSv2 and later (Haswell) because
it does not need LBRs to correct the IP-off-by-one.

HSW-EP has a larger offcore mask than the client Haswell CPUs.
It is the same mask as on Sandy/IvyBridge-EP. All of
Haswell was using the client mask, so some bits were missing.
On the client parts some bits were also missing compared
to Sandy/IvyBridge, in particular the bits to match on a L4
cache hit.
The Haswell core in both client and server incarnations
accepts the same bits (but some are nops), so we can use
the same mask.
So use the snbep extended mask, which is a superset of the
client and the server, for all of Haswell.
This allows specifying a number of extra offcore events, like
for example for HSW-EP.
% perf stat -e cpu/event=0xb7,umask=0x1,offcore_rsp=0x3fffc00100,name=offcore_response_pf_l3_rfo_l3_miss_any_response/ true

Commit ea431643d6 ("x86/mce: Fix CMCI preemption bugs") breaks RT by
the completely unrelated conversion of the cmci_discover_lock to a
regular (non raw) spinlock. This lock was annotated in commit
59d958d2c7 ("locking, x86: mce: Annotate cmci_discover_lock as raw")
with a proper explanation why.
The argument for converting the lock back to a regular spinlock was:
- it does percpu ops without disabling preemption. Preemption is not
disabled due to the mistaken use of a raw spinlock.
Which is complete nonsense. The raw_spinlock is disabling preemption in
the same way as a regular spinlock. In mainline spinlock maps to
raw_spinlock, in RT spinlock becomes a "sleeping" lock.
raw_spinlock has on RT exactly the same semantics as in mainline. And
because this lock is taken in non preemptible context it must be raw on
RT.
Undo the locking brainfart.

x86/cpufeature.h: Reformat x86 feature macros
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.

The primary dependency is that GHES uses the x86 NMI for hardware
error notification and MCE for memory error handling. These patches
remove that dependency.
Other APEI features such as error reporting via external IRQ, error
serialization, or error injection, do not require changes to use them
on non-x86 architectures.
The following patch set eliminates the APEI Kconfig x86 dependency
by making these changes:
- treat NMI notification as GHES architecture - HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI
- group and wrap around #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI code which
is used only for NMI path
- identify architectural boxes and abstract it accordingly (tlb flush and MCE)
- rework ioremap for both IRQ and NMI context
NMI code is kept in ghes.c file since NMI and IRQ context are tightly coupled.
Note, these patches introduce no functional changes for x86. The NMI notification
feature is hard selected for x86. Architectures that want to use this
feature should also provide NMI code infrastructure.

This fix was necessary after

went in. What this patch did was, among others, check the return value
of misc_register and exit early if it encountered an error. Original
code sloppily didn't do that.
However,
cef12ee52b ("xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platform")
made it so that xen's init routine xen_late_init_mcelog runs first. This
was needed for the xen mcelog device which is supposed to be independent
from the baremetal one.
Initially it was reported that misc_register() fails often on xen and
that's why it needed fixing. However, it is *supposed* to fail by
design, when running in dom0 so that the xen mcelog device file gets
registered first.
And *then* you need the notifier *not* unregistered on the error path so
that the timer does get deleted properly in the CPU hotplug notifier.
Btw, this fix is needed also on baremetal in the unlikely event that
misc_register(&mce_chrdev_device) fails there too.
I was unsure whether to rush it in now and decided to delay it to 3.17.
However, xen people wanted it promoted as it breaks xen when doing cpu
hotplug there. So, after a bit of simmering in tip/master for initial
smoke testing, let's move it to 3.16. It fixes a semi-regression which
got introduced in 3.16 so no need for stable tagging.
tip/x86/ras contains that exact same commit but we can't remove it

confirmed locally but I should state here the special situation of this
one fix explicitly anyway.

P4 systems with cpuid level < 4 can have SMT, but the cache topology
description available (cpuid2) does not include SMP information.
Now we know that SMT shares all cache levels, and therefore we can
mark all available cache levels as shared.
We do this by setting cpu_llc_id to ->phys_proc_id, since that's
the same for each SMT thread. We can do this unconditional since if
there's no SMT its still true, the one CPU shares cache with only
itself.
This fixes a problem where such CPUs report an incorrect LLC CPU mask.
This in turn fixes a crash in the scheduler where the topology was
build wrong, it assumes the LLC mask to include at least the SMT CPUs.

BorisO reports that misc_register() fails often on xen. The current code
unregisters the CPU hotplug notifier in that case. If then a CPU is
offlined and onlined back again, we end up with a second timer running
on that CPU, leading to soft lockups and system hangs.
So let's leave the hotcpu notifier always registered - even if
mce_device_create failed for some cores and never unreg it so that we
can deal with the timer handling accordingly.

It's unnecessary to excessively spam the kernel log anytime the BTS buffer
cannot be allocated, so make this allocation __GFP_NOWARN.
The user probably will want to at least find some artifact that the
allocation has failed in the past, probably due to fragmentation because
of its large size, when it's not allocated at bootstrap. Thus, add a
WARN_ONCE() so something is left behind for them to understand why perf
commnads that require PEBS is not working properly.

With -cpu host, KVM reports LBR and extra_regs support, if the host has
support.
When the guest perf driver tries to access LBR or extra_regs MSR,
it #GPs all MSR accesses,since KVM doesn't handle LBR and extra_regs support.
So check the related MSRs access right once at initialization time to avoid
the error access at runtime.
For reproducing the issue, please build the kernel with CONFIG_KVM_INTEL = y
(for host kernel).
And CONFIG_PARAVIRT = n and CONFIG_KVM_GUEST = n (for guest kernel).
Start the guest with -cpu host.
Run perf record with --branch-any or --branch-filter in guest to trigger LBR
Run perf stat offcore events (E.g. LLC-loads/LLC-load-misses ...) in guest to
trigger offcore_rsp #GP

Currently, any NMI is falsely handled by a NMI handler of NMI watchdog
if CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR is set.
For example, we use external NMI to make system panic to get crash
dump, but in this case, the external NMI is falsely handled do to the
issue.
This commit deals with the issue simply by ignoring CondChgd bit.
Here is explanation in detail.
On x86 NMI watchdog uses performance monitoring feature to
periodically signal NMI each time performance counter gets overflowed.
intel_pmu_handle_irq() is called as a NMI_LOCAL handler from a NMI
handler of NMI watchdog, perf_event_nmi_handler(). It identifies an
owner of a given NMI by looking at overflow status bits in
MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR. If some of the bits are set, then it
handles the given NMI as its own NMI.
The problem is that the intel_pmu_handle_irq() doesn't distinguish
CondChgd bit from other bits. Unlike the other status bits, CondChgd
bit doesn't represent overflow status for performance counters. Thus,
CondChgd bit cannot be thought of as a mark indicating a given NMI is
NMI watchdog's.
As a result, if CondChgd bit is set, any NMI is falsely handled by the
NMI handler of NMI watchdog. Also, if type of the falsely handled NMI
is either NMI_UNKNOWN, NMI_SERR or NMI_IO_CHECK, the corresponding
action is never performed until CondChgd bit is cleared.
I noticed this behavior on systems with Ivy Bridge processors: Intel
Xeon CPU E5-2630 v2 and Intel Xeon CPU E7-8890 v2. On both systems,
CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR has already been set
in the beginning at boot. Then the CondChgd bit is immediately cleared
by next wrmsr to MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR and appears to remain
0.
On the other hand, on older processors such as Nehalem, Xeon E7540,
CondChgd bit is not set in the beginning at boot.
I'm not sure about exact behavior of CondChgd bit, in particular when
this bit is set. Although I read Intel System Programmer's Manual to
figure out that, the descriptions I found are:
In 18.9.1:
"The MSR_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR also provides a ¡sticky bit¢ to
indicate changes to the state of performancmonitoring hardware"
In Table 35-2 IA-32 Architectural MSRs
63 CondChg: status bits of this register has changed.
These are different from the bahviour I see on the actual system as I
explained above.
At least, I think ignoring CondChgd bit should be enough for NMI
watchdog perspective.

So let's leave the hotcpu notifier always registered - even if
mce_device_create failed for some cores and never unreg it so that we
can deal with the timer handling accordingly.

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.

Bit 02: Supports XGETBV with ECX = 1 if set
Bit 03: Supports XSAVES/XRSTORS and IA32_XSS if set
The above features are defined in the new word 10 in cpu features.
The IA32_XSS MSR (index DA0H) contains a state-component bitmap that specifies
the state components that software has enabled xsaves and xrstors to manage.
If the bit corresponding to a state component is clear in XCR0 | IA32_XSS,
xsaves and xrstors will not operate on that state component, regardless of
the value of the instruction mask.

Added two preemption bugs:
- machine_check_poll() does a get_cpu_var() without a matching
put_cpu_var(), which causes preemption imbalance and crashes upon
bootup.
- it does percpu ops without disabling preemption. Preemption is not
disabled due to the mistaken use of a raw spinlock.
To fix these bugs fix the imbalance and change
cmci_discover_lock to a regular spinlock.

The legacy PIC may or may not be available and we need a mechanism to
detect the existence of the legacy PIC that is applicable for all
hardware (both physical as well as virtual) currently supported by
Linux.
On Hyper-V, when our legacy firmware presented to the guests, emulates
the legacy PIC while when our EFI based firmware is presented we do
not emulate the PIC. To support Hyper-V EFI firmware, we had to set
the legacy_pic to the null_legacy_pic since we had to bypass PIC based
calibration in the early boot code. While, on the EFI firmware, we
know we don't emulate the legacy PIC, we need a generic mechanism to
detect the presence of the legacy PIC that is not based on boot time
state - this became apparent when we tried to get kexec to work on
Hyper-V EFI firmware.
This patch implements the proposal put forth by H. Peter Anvin
<hpa@linux.intel.com>: Write a known value to the PIC data port and
read it back. If the value read is the value written, we do have the
PIC, if not there is no PIC and we can safely set the legacy_pic to
null_legacy_pic. Since the read from an unconnected I/O port returns
0xff, we will use ~(1 << PIC_CASCADE_IR) (0xfb: mask all lines except
the cascade line) to probe for the existence of the PIC.
In version V1 of the patch, I had cleaned up the code based on comments from Peter.
In version V2 of the patch, I have addressed additional comments from Peter.
In version V3 of the patch, I have addressed Jan's comments (JBeulich@suse.com).

NOTE! We may have to relax the "forbid the use of 16-bit segments in

But I'm taking this in the current unconditional form for now to see who

The purpose of this single series of commits from Srivatsa S Bhat (with
a small piece from Gautham R Shenoy) touching multiple subsystems that use
CPU hotplug notifiers is to provide a way to register them that will not
lead to deadlocks with CPU online/offline operations as described in the
changelog of commit 93ae4f978c (CPU hotplug: Provide lockless versions
of callback registration functions).
The first three commits in the series introduce the API and document it
and the rest simply goes through the users of CPU hotplug notifiers and
converts them to using the new method.

Pull CPU hotplug notifiers registration fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"The purpose of this single series of commits from Srivatsa S Bhat
(with a small piece from Gautham R Shenoy) touching multiple
subsystems that use CPU hotplug notifiers is to provide a way to
register them that will not lead to deadlocks with CPU online/offline
operations as described in the changelog of commit 93ae4f978c ("CPU
hotplug: Provide lockless versions of callback registration
functions").
The first three commits in the series introduce the API and document
it and the rest simply goes through the users of CPU hotplug notifiers
and converts them to using the new method"

Pull irq code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department proudly presents:
- Another tree wide sweep of irq infrastructure abuse. Clear winner
of the trainwreck engineering contest was:
#include "../../../kernel/irq/settings.h"
- Tree wide update of irq_set_affinity() callbacks which miss a cpu
online check when picking a single cpu out of the affinity mask.
- Tree wide consolidation of interrupt statistics.
- Updates to the threaded interrupt infrastructure to allow explicit
wakeup of the interrupt thread and a variant of synchronize_irq()
which synchronizes only the hard interrupt handler. Both are
needed to replace the homebrewn thread handling in the mmc/sdhci
code.
- New irq chip callbacks to allow proper support for GPIO based irqs.
The GPIO based interrupts need to request/release GPIO resources
from request/free_irq.
- A few new ARM interrupt chips. No revolutionary new hardware, just
differently wreckaged variations of the scheme.
- Small improvments, cleanups and updates all over the place"

When CMCI storm persists for a long time(at least beyond predefined
threshold. It's 30 seconds for now), we can watch CMCI storm is
detected immediately after it subsides.
...
Dec 10 22:04:29 kernel: CMCI storm detected: switching to poll mode
Dec 10 22:04:59 kernel: CMCI storm subsided: switching to interrupt mode
Dec 10 22:04:59 kernel: CMCI storm detected: switching to poll mode
Dec 10 22:05:29 kernel: CMCI storm subsided: switching to interrupt mode
...
The problem is that our logic that determines that the storm has
ended is incorrect. We announce the end, re-enable interrupts and
realize that the storm is still going on, so we switch back to
polling mode. Rinse, repeat.
When a storm happens we disable signaling of errors via CMCI and begin
polling machine check banks instead. If we find any logged errors,
then we need to set a per-cpu flag so that our per-cpu tests that
check whether the storm is ongoing will see that errors are still
being logged independently of whether mce_notify_irq() says that the
error has been fully processed.
cmci_clear() is not the right tool to disable a bank. It disables the
interrupt for the bank as desired, but it also clears the bit for
this bank in "mce_banks_owned" so we will skip the bank when polling
(so we fail to see that the storm continues because we stop looking).
New cmci_storm_disable_banks() just disables the interrupt while
allowing polling to continue.

- timer_irq_works() may fail sometime due to the lpj calibration were inaccurate

After fixing the CPU hotplug callback registration code, the callbacks
invoked for each online CPU, during the initialization phase in
thermal_throttle_init_device(), can no longer race with the actual CPU

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();

The error path of uncore_type_init() frees up any allocations
that were made along the way, but it relies upon type->pmus
being set, which only happens if the function succeeds. As
type->pmus remains null in this case, the call to
uncore_type_exit will do nothing.
Moving the assignment earlier will allow us to actually free
those allocations should something go awry.

introduced the function uncore_cpumask_init(), which is only
called in __init intel_uncore_init(). But it is not marked
with __init, which produces the following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x2464a): Section mismatch in reference from the function uncore_cpumask_init() to the function .init.text:uncore_cpu_setup()
The function uncore_cpumask_init() references
the function __init uncore_cpu_setup().
This is often because uncore_cpumask_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of uncore_cpu_setup is wrong.
This patch marks uncore_cpumask_init() with __init.

x86_64 uses a per_cpu variable kernel_stack to always point to
the thread stack of current. This is where the thread_info is stored
and is accessed from this location even when the irq or exception stack
is in use. This removes the complexity of having to maintain the
thread info on the stack when interrupts are running and having to
copy the preempt_count and other fields to the interrupt stack.
x86_32 uses the old method of copying the thread_info from the thread
stack to the exception stack just before executing the exception.
Having the two different requires #ifdefs and also the x86_32 way
is a bit of a pain to maintain. By converting x86_32 to the same
method of x86_64, we can remove #ifdefs, clean up the x86_32 code
a little, and remove the overhead of the copy.

The vmbus/hyperv interrupt handling is another complete trainwreck and
probably the worst of all currently in tree.
If CONFIG_HYPERV=y then the interrupt delivery to the vmbus happens
via the direct HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR. So far so good, but:
The driver requests first a normal device interrupt. The only reason
to do so is to increment the interrupt stats of that device
interrupt. For no reason it also installs a private flow handler.
We have proper accounting mechanisms for direct vectors, but of
course it's too much effort to add that 5 lines of code.
Aside of that the alloc_intr_gate() is not protected against
reallocation which makes module reload impossible.
Solution to the problem is simple to rip out the whole mess and
implement it correctly.
First of all move all that code to arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c and
merily install the HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR with proper reallocation
protection and use the proper direct vector accounting mechanism.

Vince "Super Tester" Weaver reported a new round of syscall fuzzing (Trinity) failures,
with perf WARN_ON()s triggering. He also provided traces of the failures.
This is I think the relevant bit:

> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926166: collect_events: Adding event: 1 (ffff880119ec8800)
So we add the insn:p event (fd[23]).
At this point we should have:
n_events = 2, n_added = 1, n_txn = 1
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926170: collect_events: Adding event: 0 (ffff8800c9e01800)
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926172: collect_events: Adding event: 4 (ffff8800cbab2c00)
We try and add the {BP,cycles,br_insn} group (fd[3], fd[4], fd[15]).
These events are 0:cycles and 4:br_insn, the BP event isn't x86_pmu so
that's not visible.
group_sched_in()
pmu->start_txn() /* nop - BP pmu */
event_sched_in()
event->pmu->add()
So here we should end up with:
0: n_events = 3, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2
4: n_events = 4, n_added = 3, n_txn = 3
But seeing the below state on x86_pmu_enable(), the must have failed,
because the 0 and 4 events aren't there anymore.
Looking at group_sched_in(), since the BP is the leader, its
event_sched_in() must have succeeded, for otherwise we would not have
seen the sibling adds.
But since neither 0 or 4 are in the below state; their event_sched_in()
must have failed; but I don't see why, the complete state: 0,0,1:p,4
fits perfectly fine on a core2.
However, since we try and schedule 4 it means the 0 event must have
succeeded! Therefore the 4 event must have failed, its failure will
have put group_sched_in() into the fail path, which will call:
event_sched_out()
event->pmu->del()
on 0 and the BP event.
Now x86_pmu_del() will reduce n_events; but it will not reduce n_added;
giving what we see below:
n_event = 2, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926177: x86_pmu_enable: x86_pmu_enable
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926177: x86_pmu_state: Events: {

> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926182: x86_pmu_state: }
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926184: x86_pmu_state: n_events: 2, n_added: 2, n_txn: 2
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926184: x86_pmu_state: Assignment: {
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926186: x86_pmu_state: 0->33 tag: 1 config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800)

> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926188: x86_pmu_state: }
> pec_1076_warn-2804 [000] d... 147.926190: x86_pmu_enable: S0: hwc->idx: 33, hwc->last_cpu: 0, hwc->last_tag: 1 hwc->state: 0
So the problem is that x86_pmu_del(), when called from a
group_sched_in() that fails (for whatever reason), and without x86_pmu
TXN support (because the leader is !x86_pmu), will corrupt the n_added
state.

This patch is needed because that PMU uses 32-bit free
running counters with no interrupt capabilities.
On SNB/IVB/HSW, we used 20GB/s theoretical peak to calculate
the hrtimer timeout necessary to avoid missing an overflow.
That delay is set to 5s to be on the cautious side.
The SNB IMC uses free running counters, which are handled
via pseudo fixed counters. The SNB IMC PMU implementation
supports an arbitrary number of events, because the counters
are read-only. Therefore it is not possible to track active
counters. Instead we put active events on a linked list which
is then used by the hrtimer handler to update the SW counts.

This patch makes the hrtimer timeout configurable per PMU
box. Not all counters have necessarily the same width and
rate, thus the default timeout of 60s may need to be adjusted.
This patch adds box->hrtimer_duration. It is set to default
when the box is allocated. It can be overriden when the box
is initialized.

On certain processors, the uncore PMU boxes may only be
msr-bsed or PCI-based. But in both cases, the cpumask,
suggesting on which CPUs to monitor to get full coverage
of the particular PMU, must be created.
However with the current code base, the cpumask was only
created on processor which had at least one MSR-based
uncore PMU. This patch removes that restriction and
ensures the cpumask is created even when there is no
msr-based PMU. For instance, on SNB client where only
a PCI-based memory controller PMU is supported.

CR4 -- in fact, we should clear it, because the kernel doesn't contain
the proper STAC/CLAC instructions for SMAP support.

A bunch of unknown NMIs have popped up on a Pentium4 recently when booting
into a kdump kernel. This was exposed because the watchdog timer went
from 60 seconds down to 10 seconds (increasing the ability to reproduce
this problem).
What is happening is on boot up of the second kernel (the kdump one),
the previous nmi_watchdogs were enabled on thread 0 and thread 1. The
second kernel only initializes one cpu but the perf counter on thread 1
still counts.
Normally in a kdump scenario, the other cpus are blocking in an NMI loop,
but more importantly their local apics have the performance counters disabled
(iow LVTPC is masked). So any counters that fire are masked and never get
through to the second kernel.
However, on a P4 the local apic is shared by both threads and thread1's PMI
(despite being configured to only interrupt thread1) will generate an NMI on
thread0. Because thread0 knows nothing about this NMI, it is seen as an
unknown NMI.
This would be fine because it is a kdump kernel, strange things happen
what is the big deal about a single unknown NMI.
Unfortunately, the P4 comes with another quirk: clearing the overflow bit
to prevent a stream of NMIs. This is the problem.
The kdump kernel can not execute because of the endless NMIs that happen.
To solve this, I instrumented the p4 perf init code, to walk all the counters
and zero them out (just like a normal reset would).
Now when the counters go off, they do not generate anything and no unknown
NMIs are seen.
I tested this on a P4 we have in our lab. After two or three crashes, I could
normally reproduce the problem. Now after 10 crashes, everything continues
to boot correctly.

On a P4 box stressing perf with:
./perf record -o perf.data ./perf stat -v ./perf bench all
it was noticed that a slew of unknown NMIs would pop out rather quickly.
Painfully debugging this ancient platform, led me to notice cross cpu counter
corruption.
The P4 machine is special in that it has 18 counters, half are used for cpu0
and the other half is for cpu1 (or all 18 if hyperthreading is disabled). But
the splitting of the counters has to be actively managed by the software.
In this particular bug, one of the cpu0 specific counters was being used by
cpu1 and caused all sorts of random unknown nmis.
I am not entirely sure on the corruption path, but what happens is:
o perf schedules a group with p4_pmu_schedule_events()
o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused
but for a different cpu, so it 'swaps' the config bits and returns the
updated 'assign' array with a _new_ index.
o perf schedules another group with p4_pmu_schedule_events()
o inside p4_pmu_schedule_events(), it notices an hwc pointer is being reused
(the same one as above) but for the _same_ cpu [BUG!!], so it updates the
'assign' array to use the _old_ (wrong cpu) index because the _new_ index is in
an earlier part of the 'assign' array (and hasn't been committed yet).
o perf commits the transaction using the wrong index and corrupts the other cpu
The [BUG!!] is because the 'hwc->config' is updated but not the 'hwc->idx'. So
the check for 'p4_should_swap_ts()' is correct the first time around but
incorrect the second time around (because hwc->config was updated in between).
I think the spirit of perf was to not modify anything until all the
transactions had a chance to 'test' if they would succeed, and if so, commit
atomically. However, P4 breaks this spirit by touching the hwc->config
element.
So my fix is to continue the un-perf like breakage, by assigning hwc->idx to -1
on swap to tell follow up group scheduling to find a new index.
Of course if the transaction fails rolling this back will be difficult, but
that is not different than how the current code works. :-) And I wasn't sure
how much effort to cleanup the code I should do for a platform that is almost
10 years old by now.
Hence the lazy fix.

For additional coverage, BorisO and friends unknowlingly did swap AMD
microcode with Intel microcode blobs in order to see what happens. What
did happen on 32-bit was
[ 5.722656] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at be3a6008
[ 5.722693] IP: [<c106d6b4>] load_microcode_amd+0x24/0x3f0
[ 5.722716] *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
because there was a valid initrd there but without valid microcode in it
and the container check happened *after* the relocated ramdisk handling
on 32-bit, which was clearly wrong.
While at it, take care of the ramdisk relocation on both 32- and 64-bit
as it is done on both. Also, comment what we're doing because this code
is a bit tricky.

There was a large ebizzy performance regression that was
bisected to commit 611ae8e3 (x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range
support for x86). The problem was related to the
tlb_flushall_shift tuning for IvyBridge which was altered. The
problem is that it is not clear if the tuning values for each
CPU family is correct as the methodology used to tune the values
is unclear.
This patch uses a conservative tlb_flushall_shift value for all
CPU families except IvyBridge so the decision can be revisited
if any regression is found as a result of this change.
IvyBridge is an exception as testing with one methodology
determined that the value of 2 is acceptable. Details are in
the changelog for the patch "x86: mm: Change tlb_flushall_shift
for IvyBridge".
One important aspect of this to watch out for is Xen. The
original commit log mentioned large performance gains on Xen.
It's possible Xen is more sensitive to this value if it flushes
small ranges of pages more frequently than workloads on bare
metal typically do.

Ebizzy hits the worst case scenario for TLB range flushing every
time and it shows for these Ivybridge CPUs at least that the
default choice is a poor on. The patch addresses the problem.
Next was a tlbflush microbenchmark written by Alex Shi at
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133727348217113 . It
measures access costs while the TLB is being flushed. The
expectation is that if there are always full TLB flushes that
the benchmark would suffer and it benefits from range flushing
There are 320 iterations of the test per thread count. The
number of entries is randomly selected with a min of 1 and max
of 512. To ensure a reasonably even spread of entries, the full
range is broken up into 8 sections and a random number selected
within that section.
iteration 1, random number between 0-64
iteration 2, random number between 64-128 etc
This is still a very weak methodology. When you do not know
what are typical ranges, random is a reasonable choice but it
can be easily argued that the opimisation was for smaller ranges
and an even spread is not representative of any workload that
matters. To improve this, we'd need to know the probability
distribution of TLB flush range sizes for a set of workloads
that are considered "common", build a synthetic trace and feed
that into this benchmark. Even that is not perfect because it
would not account for the time between flushes but there are
limits of what can be reasonably done and still be doing
something useful. If a representative synthetic trace is
provided then this benchmark could be revisited and the shift values retuned.

Mean 16 40.05 ( 0.00%) 39.04 ( 2.51%)
For both CPUs, average access time is reduced which is good as
this is the benchmark that was used to tune the shift values in
the first place albeit it is now known *how* the benchmark was
used.
The scheduler benchmarks were somewhat inconclusive. They
showed gains and losses and makes me reconsider how stable those
benchmarks really are or if something else might be interfering
with the test results recently.
Network benchmarks were inconclusive. Almost all results were
flat except for netperf-udp tests on the 4 thread machine.
These results were unstable and showed large variations between
reboots. It is unknown if this is a recent problems but I've
noticed before that netperf-udp results tend to vary.
Based on these results, changing the default for Ivybridge seems
like a logical choice.

Here's the big driver core and sysfs patch set for 3.14-rc1.
There's a lot of work here moving sysfs logic out into a "kernfs" to
allow other subsystems to also have a virtual filesystem with the same
attributes of sysfs (handle device disconnect, dynamic creation /
removal as needed / unneeded, etc. This is primarily being done for
the cgroups filesystem, but the goal is to also move debugfs to it when
it is ready, solving all of the known issues in that filesystem as well.
The code isn't completed yet, but all should be stable now (there is a
big section that was reverted due to problems found when testing.)
There's also some other smaller fixes, and a driver core addition that
allows for a "collection" of objects, that the DRM people will be using
soon (it's in this tree to make merges after -rc1 easier.)
All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues.

On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from
S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization:
Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1
[Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1
process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1
CPU1 is up
...
ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3
Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS
vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming.
The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs
to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but
firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram
the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be
written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is
implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during
IBS setup.
This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding
resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset

CPU-related functionality so do that and drop the prefix since they're

So mce_start_timer() has a 'cpu' argument which is supposed to mean to
start a timer on that cpu. However, the code currently starts a timer on
the *current* cpu the function runs on and causes the sanity-check in
mce_timer_fn to fire:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c:1286 mce_timer_fn
because it is running on the wrong cpu.
This was triggered by Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> by offlining
all the cpus in succession.
Then, we were fiddling with the CMCI storm settings when starting the
timer whereas there's no need for that - if there's storm happening
on this newly restarted cpu, we're going to be in normal CMCI mode
initially and then when the CMCI interrupt starts firing, we're going to
go to the polling mode with the timer real soon.

This patch adds support for the Intel RAPL energy counter
PP1 (Power Plane 1).
On client processors, it usually corresponds to the
energy consumption of the builtin graphic card. That
is why the sysfs event is called energy-gpu.
New event:
- name: power/energy-gpu/
- code: event=0x4
- unit: 2^-32 Joules
On processors without graphics, this should count 0.
The patch only enables this event on client processors.

Linux 3.10 changed the timing of how thread_info->flags is touched:
x86: Use generic idle loop
(7d1a941731)
This caused Intel NHM-EX and WSM-EX servers to experience a large number
of immediate MONITOR/MWAIT break wakeups, which caused cpuidle to demote
from deep C-states to shallow C-states, which caused these platforms
to experience a significant increase in idle power.
Note that this issue was already present before the commit above,
however, it wasn't seen often enough to be noticed in power measurements.
Here we extend an errata workaround from the Core2 EX "Dunnington"
to extend to NHM-EX and WSM-EX, to prevent these immediate
returns from MWAIT, reducing idle power on these platforms.
While only acpi_idle ran on Dunnington, intel_idle
may also run on these two newer systems.
As of today, there are no other models that are known
to need this tweak.

The EVENT_CONSTRAINT_END() macro defines the end marker as
a constraint with a weight of zero. This was all fine
until we blacklisted the corrupting memory events on
Intel IvyBridge. These events are blacklisted by using
a counter bitmask of zero. Thus, they also get a constraint
weight of zero.
The iteration macro: for_each_constraint tests the weight==0.
Therefore, it was stopping at the first blacklisted event, i.e.,
0xd0. The corrupting events were therefore considered as
unconstrained and were scheduled on any of the generic counters.
This patch fixes the end marker to have a weight of -1. With
this, the blacklisted events get an empty constraint and cannot
be scheduled which is what we want for now.

The RAPL PMU counters do not interrupt on overflow.
Therefore, the kernel needs to poll the counters
to avoid missing an overflow. This patch adds
the hrtimer code to do this.
The timer interval is calculated at boot time
based on the power unit used by the HW.
There is one hrtimer per-cpu to handle the case
of multiple simultaneous use across cores on
the same package + hotplug CPU.

This patch adds a new uncore PMU to expose the Intel
RAPL energy consumption counters. Up to 3 counters,
each counting a particular RAPL event are exposed.
The RAPL counters are available on Intel SandyBridge,
IvyBridge, Haswell. The server skus add a 3rd counter.
The following events are available and exposed in sysfs:
- power/energy-cores: power consumption of all cores on socket
- power/energy-pkg: power consumption of all cores + LLc cache
- power/energy-dram: power consumption of DRAM (servers only)
For each event both the unit (Joules) and scale (2^-32 J)
is exposed in sysfs for use by perf stat and other tools.
The files are:
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-*.unit
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-*.scale
The RAPL PMU is uncore by nature and is implemented such
that it only works in system-wide mode. Measuring only
one CPU per socket is sufficient. The /sys/devices/power/cpumask
file can be used by tools to figure out which CPUs to monitor
by default. For instance, on a 2-socket system, 2 CPUs
(one on each socket) will be shown.
All the counters measure in the same unit (exposed via sysfs).
The perf_events API exposes all RAPL counters as 64-bit integers
counting in unit of 1/2^32 Joules (about 0.23 nJ). User level tools
must convert the counts by multiplying them by 2^-32 to obtain
Joules. The reason for this is that the kernel avoids
doing floating point math whenever possible because it is
expensive (user floating-point state must be saved). The method
used avoids kernel floating-point usage. There is no loss of
precision. Thanks to PeterZ for suggesting this approach.
To convert the raw count in Watt:
W = C * 2.3 / (1e10 * time)
or ldexp(C, -32).
RAPL PMU is a new standalone PMU which registers with the
perf_event core subsystem. The PMU type (attr->type) is
dynamically allocated and is available from /sys/device/power/type.
Sampling is not supported by the RAPL PMU. There is no
privilege level filtering either.
