Rusty Russell 78f1c4d6b0 cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapper: x86
Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask (to be a pointer).

It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer
(the older ones are deprecated, but there's no hurry for arch code).

x86-64 assumes NX is available by default, so we need to
explicitly check for it before using NX.  Some first-generation
Intel x86-64 processors didn't support NX, and even recent systems
allow it to be disabled in BIOS.

Yang Xiaowei 2496afbf1e xen: use stronger barrier after unlocking lock
We need to have a stronger barrier between releasing the lock and
checking for any waiting spinners.  A compiler barrier is not sufficient
because the CPU's ordering rules do not prevent the read xl->spinners
from happening before the unlock assignment, as they are different
memory locations.

We need to have an explicit barrier to enforce the write-read ordering
to different memory locations.

Because of it, I can't bring up > 4 HVM guests on one SMP machine.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 4d576b57b5 xen: only enable interrupts while actually blocking for spinlock
Where possible we enable interrupts while waiting for a spinlock to
become free, in order to reduce big latency spikes in interrupt handling.

However, at present if we manage to pick up the spinlock just before
blocking, we'll end up holding the lock with interrupts enabled for a
while.  This will cause a deadlock if we recieve an interrupt in that
window, and the interrupt handler tries to take the lock too.

Solve this by shrinking the interrupt-enabled region to just around the
blocking call.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 577eebeae3 xen: make -fstack-protector work under Xen
-fstack-protector uses a special per-cpu "stack canary" value.
gcc generates special code in each function to test the canary to make
sure that the function's stack hasn't been overrun.

On x86-64, this is simply an offset of %gs, which is the usual per-cpu
base segment register, so setting it up simply requires loading %gs's
base as normal.

On i386, the stack protector segment is %gs (rather than the usual kernel
percpu %fs segment register).  This requires setting up the full kernel
GDT and then loading %gs accordingly.  We also need to make sure %gs is
initialized when bringing up secondary cpus too.

To keep things consistent, we do the full GDT/segment register setup on
both architectures.

Because we need to avoid -fstack-protected code before setting up the GDT
and because there's no way to disable it on a per-function basis, several
files need to have stack-protector inhibited.

[ Impact: allow Xen booting with stack-protector enabled ]

Jeremy Fitzhardinge b4ecc12699 x86: Fix performance regression caused by paravirt_ops on native kernels
Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's
behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native.

It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized
spinlocks introduced by:

 | commit 8efcbab674
 | Date:   Mon Jul 7 12:07:51 2008 -0700
 |
 |     paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation

The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow
causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7%
(seems to vary quite a lot from test to test).  The working theory is
that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the
call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to
speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise
reasons).  This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance
hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve
locked instructions.  But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the
other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're
nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions
executed).

If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is
identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that
it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown).

Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a
no-pvops build as baseline:

		nopv		Pv-nospin	Pv-spin
CPU cycles	100.00%		99.89%		102.18%
instructions	100.00%		100.10%		100.15%
CPI		100.00%		99.79%		102.03%
cache ref	100.00%		100.84%		100.28%
cache miss	100.00%		90.47%		88.56%
cache miss rate	100.00%		89.72%		88.31%
branches	100.00%		99.93%		100.04%
branch miss	100.00%		103.66%		107.72%
branch miss rt	100.00%		103.73%		107.67%
wallclock	100.00%		99.90%		102.20%

The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is
directly reflected in the final wallclock time.

(The other interesting effect is that the more ops are
out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access
and miss rates.  Not too surprising, but it suggests that
the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined.  On the flipside,
the branch misses go up correspondingly...)

So, what's the fix?

Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so
_spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls.  For example, the compiler
generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is:

<_spin_lock+0>:		mov    %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>:		incl   0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>:	callq  *0xffffffff805a5b30
<_spin_lock+22>:	retq

The indirect call will get patched to:
<_spin_lock+0>:		mov    %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>:		incl   0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>:	callq <__ticket_spin_lock>
<_spin_lock+20>:	nop; nop		/* or whatever 2-byte nop */
<_spin_lock+22>:	retq

One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an
optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt
instrumentation/debugging enabled).  That will remove the outer
call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single
call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops
case.  The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the
preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is
fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are
already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor
magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial.

The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks.  Making them a
separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to
enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user).
But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which
is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of
whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the
performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall
system CPU when guests block rather than spin).  Still it is a
reasonable short-term workaround.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 6b2e8523df xen: reserve Xen start_info rather than e820 reserving
Use reserve_early rather than e820 reservations for Xen start info and mfn->pfn
table, so that the memory use is a bit more self-documenting.

[ Impact: cleanup ]

Conflicts:
	arch/frv/include/asm/pgtable.h
	arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h
	arch/x86/xen/mmu.c

Merge reason: x86/xen was on a .29 base still, move it to a fresher
              branch and pick up Xen fixes as well, plus resolve
              conflicts

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 33df4db04a x86: xen, i386: reserve Xen pagetables
The Xen pagetables are no longer implicitly reserved as part of the other
i386_start_kernel reservations, so make sure we explicitly reserve them.
This prevents them from being released into the general kernel free page
pool and reused.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 191216b928 xen: mask XSAVE from cpuid
Xen leaves XSAVE set in cpuid, but doesn't allow cr4.OSXSAVE
to be set.  This confuses the kernel and it ends up crashing on
an xsetbv instruction.

At boot time, try to set cr4.OSXSAVE, and mask XSAVE out of
cpuid it we can't.  This will produce a spurious error from Xen,
but allows us to support XSAVE if/when Xen does.

This also factors out the cpuid mask decisions to boot time.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge a957fac500 xen: make xen_load_gdt simpler
Remove use of multicall machinery which is unused (gdt loading
is never performance critical).  This removes the implicit use
of percpu variables, which simplifies understanding how
the percpu code's use of load_gdt interacts with this code.
