1ff2fb982c x86/aperfperf: Make it correct on 32bit and UP kernels
The utilization of arch_scale_freq_tick() for CPU frequency readouts is
incomplete as it failed to move the function prototype and the define
out of the CONFIG_SMP && CONFIG_X86_64 #ifdef.

Make them unconditionally available.

bb6e89df90 x86/aperfmperf: Make parts of the frequency invariance code unconditional
The frequency invariance support is currently limited to x86/64 and SMP,
which is the vast majority of machines.

arch_scale_freq_tick() is called every tick on all CPUs and reads the APERF
and MPERF MSRs. The CPU frequency getters function do the same via dedicated
IPIs.

While it could be argued that on systems where frequency invariance support
is disabled (32bit, !SMP) the per tick read of the APERF and MPERF MSRs can
be avoided, it does not make sense to keep the extra code and the resulting
runtime issues of mass IPIs around.

As a first step split out the non frequency invariance specific
initialization code and the read MSR portion of arch_scale_freq_tick(). The
rest of the code is still conditional and guarded with a static key.

0dfaf3f6ec x86/aperfmperf: Untangle Intel and AMD frequency invariance init
AMD boot CPU initialization happens late via ACPI/CPPC which prevents the
Intel parts from being marked __init.

Split out the common code and provide a dedicated interface for the AMD
initialization and mark the Intel specific code and data __init.

The remaining text size is almost cut in half:

138a7f9c6b x86/aperfmperf: Separate AP/BP frequency invariance init
This code is convoluted and because it can be invoked post init via the
ACPI/CPPC code, all of the initialization functionality is built in instead
of being part of init text and init data.

As a first step create separate calls for the boot and the application
processors.

1132e6de11 x86, ACPI: rename init_freq_invariance_cppc() to arch_init_invariance_cppc()
init_freq_invariance_cppc() was called in acpi_cppc_processor_probe(),
after CPU performance information and controls were populated from the
per-cpu _CPC objects.

But these _CPC objects provide information that helps with both CPU
(u-arch) and frequency invariance. Therefore, change the function name
to a more generic one, while adding the arch_ prefix, as this function
is expected to be defined differently by different architectures.

eb5616d4ad x86/ACPI: CPPC: Move init_freq_invariance_cppc() into x86 CPPC
The init_freq_invariance_cppc code actually doesn't need the SMP
functionality. So setting the CONFIG_SMP as the check condition for
init_freq_invariance_cppc may cause the confusion to misunderstand the
CPPC. And the x86 CPPC file is better space to store the CPPC related
functions, while the init_freq_invariance_cppc is out of smpboot, that
means, the CONFIG_SMP won't be mandatory condition any more. And It's more
clear than before.

ab28e94419 topology/sysfs: Add PPIN in sysfs under cpu topology
PPIN is the Protected Processor Identification Number.
This is used to identify the socket as a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU).

Existing code only displays this when reporting errors. But this makes
it inconvenient for large clusters to use it for its intended purpose
of inventory control.

Add ppin to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology to make what
is already available using RDMSR more easily accessible. Make
the file read only for root in case there are still people
concerned about making a unique system "serial number" available.

66558b730f sched: Add cluster scheduler level for x86
There are x86 CPU architectures (e.g. Jacobsville) where L2 cahce is
shared among a cluster of cores instead of being exclusive to one
single core.

To prevent oversubscription of L2 cache, load should be balanced
between such L2 clusters, especially for tasks with no shared data.
On benchmark such as SPECrate mcf test, this change provides a boost
to performance especially on medium load system on Jacobsville.  on a
Jacobsville that has 24 Atom cores, arranged into 6 clusters of 4
cores each, the benchmark number is as follow:

 Improvement over baseline kernel for mcf_r
 copies		run time	base rate
 1		-0.1%		-0.2%
 6		25.1%		25.1%
 12		18.8%		19.0%
 24		0.3%		0.3%

So this looks pretty good. In terms of the system's task distribution,
some pretty bad clumping can be seen for the vanilla kernel without
the L2 cluster domain for the 6 and 12 copies case. With the extra
domain for cluster, the load does get evened out between the clusters.

Note this patch isn't an universal win as spreading isn't necessarily
a win, particually for those workload who can benefit from packing.

41ea667227 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.

e2b0d619b4 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>).

918229cdd5 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.

1567c3e346 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")

 | 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.

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.

                                         +------+

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.

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.

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. Otherwise, gains are
visible up to 16 clients and the saturated scenario is the same as baseline.

The scores in the summary table from the previous sections are ratios of
geometric means of the results over different clients, as seen in this table.

The patch outperform active intel_pstate (and baseline) by a considerable
margin; the summary table from the previous section says 4C turbo and active
intel_pstate are 0.83 and 0.93 against baseline respectively, so 4C turbo is
0.83/0.93=0.89 against intel_pstate (~10% better on average). There is no
noticeable difference with regard to the value of freq_max.

In this test, which is of interest as representing shell-intensive
(i.e. fork-intensive) serialized workloads, invariant schedutil outperforms
intel_pstate/powersave by a whopping 40% margin.

5.3.4 POWER CONSUMPTION, PERFORMANCE-PER-WATT
---------------------------------------------

The following table shows average power consumption in watt for each
benchmark. Data comes from turbostat (package average), which in turn is read
from the RAPL interface on CPUs. We know the patch affects CPU frequencies so
it's reasonable to ignore other power consumers (such as memory or I/O). 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. We took all those values and averaged them (i.e. with don't
have detail on a per-parameter granularity, only on whole benchmarks).

A lower power consumption isn't necessarily better, it depends on what is done
with that energy. Here are tables with the ratio of performance-per-watt on
each machine and benchmark. Higher is always better; a tilde (~) means a
neutral ratio (i.e. 1.00).

These results are overall pleasing: in plenty of cases we observe
performance-per-watt improvements. The few regressions (read/write pgbench and
dbench on the Broadwell machine) are of small magnitude. kernbench loses a few
percentage points (it has a 10-15% performance improvement, but apparently the
increase in power consumption is larger than that). tbench4 and gitsource, which
benefit the most from the patch, keep a positive score in this table which is
a welcome surprise; that suggests that in those particular workloads the
non-invariant schedutil (and active intel_pstate, too) makes some rather
suboptimal frequency selections.

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 6. MICROARCH'ES ADDRESSED HERE
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+

The patch addresses Xeon Core processors that use MSR_PLATFORM_INFO and
MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT to advertise their base frequency and turbo frequencies
respectively. This excludes the recent Xeon Scalable Performance processors
line (Xeon Gold, Platinum etc) whose MSRs have to be parsed differently.

Subsequent patches will address:

* Xeon Scalable Performance processors and Atom Goldmont/Goldmont Plus
* Xeon Phi (Knights Landing, Knights Mill)
* Atom Silvermont

6a4d2657e0 x86/smp: Provide topology_is_primary_thread()
If the CPU is supporting SMT then the primary thread can be found by
checking the lower APIC ID bits for zero. smp_num_siblings is used to build
the mask for the APIC ID bits which need to be taken into account.

This uses the MPTABLE or ACPI/MADT supplied APIC ID, which can be different
than the initial APIC ID in CPUID. But according to AMD the lower bits have
to be consistent. Intel gave a tentative confirmation as well.

Preparatory patch to support disabling SMT at boot/runtime.

de966cf4a4 sched/x86: Change CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO
Rename CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT for Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0
to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO.  This makes the configuration extensible
in future to other architectures that wish to similarly establish
CPU core priorities support in the scheduler.

The description in Kconfig is updated to reflect this change with
added details for better clarity.  The configuration is explicitly
default-y, to enable the feature on CPUs that have this feature.

It has no effect on non-TBM3 CPUs.

f9793e3495 x86/sysctl: Add sysctl for ITMT scheduling feature
Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 (ITMT) feature
allows some cores to be boosted to higher turbo
frequency than others.

Add /proc/sys/kernel/sched_itmt_enabled so operator
can enable/disable scheduling of tasks that favor cores
with higher turbo boost frequency potential.

By default, system that is ITMT capable and single
socket has this feature turned on.  It is more likely
to be lightly loaded and operates in Turbo range.

When there is a change in the ITMT scheduling operation
desired, a rebuild of the sched domain is initiated
so the scheduler can set up sched domains with appropriate
flag to enable/disable ITMT scheduling operations.

5e76b2ab36 x86: Enable Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0
On platforms supporting Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, the maximum
turbo frequencies of some cores in a CPU package may be higher than for
the other cores in the same package.  In that case, better performance
(and possibly lower energy consumption as well) can be achieved by
making the scheduler prefer to run tasks on the CPUs with higher max
turbo frequencies.

To that end, set up a core priority metric to abstract the core
preferences based on the maximum turbo frequency.  In that metric,
the cores with higher maximum turbo frequencies are higher-priority
than the other cores in the same package and that causes the scheduler
to favor them when making load-balancing decisions using the asymmertic
packing approach.  At the same time, the priority of SMT threads with a
higher CPU number is reduced so as to avoid scheduling tasks on all of
the threads that belong to a favored core before all of the other cores
have been given a task to run.

The priority metric will be initialized by the P-state driver with the
help of the sched_set_itmt_core_prio() function.  The P-state driver
will also determine whether or not ITMT is supported by the platform
and will call sched_set_itmt_support() to indicate that.

186f43608a x86/kernel: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h
Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends.  That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.

This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig.  The advantage
in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
headers we are effectively using.

Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
for the presence of either and replace as needed.  Build testing
revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly.

Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is
the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things
like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

For SMT specific workarounds it is useful to know if SMT is active
on any online CPU in the system. This currently requires a loop
over all online CPUs.

Add a global variable that is updated with the maximum number
of smt threads on any CPU on online/offline, and use it for
topology_max_smt_threads()

The single call is easier to use than a loop.

Not exported to user space because user space already can use
the existing sibling interfaces to find this out.

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
  in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
  so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
  collected into the 'x86/core' topic.

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

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

  The main changes in this cycle were:

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

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

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

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

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

   * x86/asm changes:

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

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

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

     - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/mm changes:

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

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

   * x86/ras changes:

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

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

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

     - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/platform changes:

     - Intel Atom SoC updates

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

c8e56d20f2 x86: Kill CONFIG_X86_HT
In talking to Aravind recently about making certain AMD topology
attributes available to the MCE injection module, it seemed like
that CONFIG_X86_HT thing is more or less superfluous. It is
def_bool y, depends on SMP and gets enabled in the majority of
.configs - distro and otherwise - out there.

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

825600c0f2 x86: fix boot on uniprocessor systems
On x86 uniprocessor systems topology_physical_package_id() returns -1
which causes rapl_cpu_prepare() to leave rapl_pmu variable uninitialized
which leads to GPF in rapl_pmu_init().

See arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_rapl.c.

It turns out that physical_package_id and core_id can actually be
retreived for uniprocessor systems too.  Enabling them also fixes
rapl_pmu code.

25453e9e52 x86/PCI: Remove mp_bus_to_node[], set_mp_bus_to_node(), get_mp_bus_to_node()
There are no callers of get_mp_bus_to_node(), so we no longer need
mp_bus_to_node[], get_mp_bus_to_node(), or set_mp_bus_to_node().
This removes them.

afcf21c2be x86/PCI: Add x86_pci_root_bus_node() to look up NUMA node from PCI bus
The AMD early_fill_mp_bus_info() already allocates a struct pci_root_info
for each PCI host bridge it finds, and that structure contains the NUMA
node number.  We don't need to keep the same information in the
mp_bus_to_node[] table.

This adds x86_pci_root_bus_node(), which returns the NUMA node number, or
NUMA_NO_NODE if the node is unknown.

Note that unlike get_mp_bus_to_node(), x86_pci_root_bus_node() only works
for root buses.  For example, if amd_bus.c finds a host bridge on node 1 to
[bus 00-0f], get_mp_bus_to_node() returns 1 for any bus between 00 and 0f,
but x86_pci_root_bus_node() returns 1 for bus 00 and NUMA_NO_NODE for buses
01-0f.

cb83b629ba sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain support
The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an
ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't
reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected
machines out there today this might make a difference.

Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance().

Since there's no fixed numa layers anymore, the static SD_NODE_INIT
and SD_ALLNODES_INIT aren't usable anymore, the new code tries to
construct something similar and scales some values either on the

2cd6975a4f x86/PCI: convert to pci_create_root_bus() and pci_scan_root_bus()
x86 has two kinds of PCI root bus scanning:

(1) ACPI-based, using _CRS resources.  This used pci_create_bus(), not
    pci_scan_bus(), because ACPI hotplug needed to split the
    pci_bus_add_devices() into a separate host bridge .start() method.

    This patch parses the _CRS resources earlier, so we can build a list of
    resources and pass it to pci_create_root_bus().

    Note that as before, we parse the _CRS even if we aren't going to use
    it so we can print it for debugging purposes.

(2) All other, which used either default resources (ioport_resource and
    iomem_resource) or information read from the hardware via amd_bus.c or
    similar.  This used pci_scan_bus().

    This patch converts x86_pci_root_bus_res_quirks() (previously called
    from pcibios_fixup_bus()) to x86_pci_root_bus_resources(), which builds
    a list of resources before we call pci_scan_root_bus().

    We also use x86_pci_root_bus_resources() if we have ACPI but are
    ignoring _CRS.

79f1ddd064 x86: Use the same node_distance for 32 and 64-bit
The node_distance function is not x86 64-bit specific.  Having
the #ifdef around the extern function declaration and the
 #define causes the default node_distance macro to be used in
asm-generic/topology.h. This also causes a sparse warning in
arch/x86/mm/numa.c when CONFIG_X86_64 is not set:

warning: symbol '__node_distance' was not declared. Should it be
static?

Remove the #ifdef to fix both issues.

bd6709a91a x86, NUMA: Make 32bit use common NUMA init path
With both _numa_init() methods converted and the rest of init code
adjusted, numa_32.c now can switch from the 32bit only init code to
the common one in numa.c.

* Shim get_memcfg_*()'s are dropped and initmem_init() calls
  x86_numa_init(), which is updated to handle NUMAQ.

* All boilerplate operations including node range limiting, pgdat
  alloc/init are handled by numa_init().  32bit only implementation is
  removed.

* 32bit numa_add_memblk(), numa_set_distance() and
  memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() removed and common versions in
  numa_32.c enabled for 32bit.

This change causes the following behavior changes.

* NODE_DATA()->node_start_pfn/node_spanned_pages properly initialized
  for 32bit too.

* Much more sanity checks and configuration cleanups.

* Proper handling of node distances.

* The same NUMA init messages as 64bit.

7210cf9217 x86-32, numa: Calculate remap size in common code
Only pgdat and memmap use remap area and there isn't much benefit in
allowing per-node override.  In addition, the use of node_remap_size[]
is confusing in that it contains number of bytes before remap
initialization and then number of pages afterwards.

Move remap size calculation for memap from specific NUMA config
implementations to init_alloc_remap() and make node_remap_size[]
static.

The only behavior difference is that, before this patch, numaq_32
didn't consider max_pfn when calculating the memmap size but it's
enforced after this patch, which is the right thing to do.
