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

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

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

  The main changes in this cycle were:

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

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

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

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

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

   * x86/asm changes:

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

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

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

     - NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/mm changes:

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

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

   * x86/ras changes:

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

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

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

     - Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)

   * x86/platform changes:

     - Intel Atom SoC updates

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

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.

b9d16a2a21 x86/cpu/amd: Set X86_FEATURE_EXTD_APICID for future processors
Decision to use a 4-bit mask or 8-bit mask in default_get_apic_id()
is controlled by setting capability bit X86_FEATURE_EXTD_APICID.

Currently, we detect extended APIC ID support by accessing Link
Transaction Control register D18F0x68 in PCI config space.

But, not even that is needed as we can safely postulate that future
AMD processors will support 8-bit APIC IDs and we can simply set that
feature bit on them, without the PCI access.

61f01dd941 x86_64, asm: Work around AMD SYSRET SS descriptor attribute issue
AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.

Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.

This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

4e26d11f52 x86/mm: Improve AMD Bulldozer ASLR workaround
The ASLR implementation needs to special-case AMD F15h processors by
clearing out bits [14:12] of the virtual address in order to avoid I$
cross invalidations and thus performance penalty for certain workloads.
For details, see:

  dfb09f9b7a ("x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family 15h")

This special case reduces the mmapped file's entropy by 3 bits.

The following output is the run on an AMD Opteron 62xx class CPU
processor under x86_64 Linux 4.0.0:

  $ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep "r-xp.*libc" ; done
  b7588000-b7736000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924       /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  b7570000-b771e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924       /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  b75d0000-b777e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924       /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  b75b0000-b775e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924       /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  b7578000-b7726000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924       /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
  ...

Bits [12:14] are always 0, i.e. the address always ends in 0x8000 or
0x0000.

32-bit systems, as in the example above, are especially sensitive
to this issue because 32-bit randomness for VA space is 8 bits (see
mmap_rnd()). With the Bulldozer special case, this diminishes to only 32
different slots of mmap virtual addresses.

This patch randomizes per boot the three affected bits rather than
setting them to zero. Since all the shared pages have the same value
at bits [12..14], there is no cache aliasing problems. This value gets
generated during system boot and it is thus not known to a potential
remote attacker. Therefore, the impact from the Bulldozer workaround
gets diminished and ASLR randomness increased.

a930dc4543 x86/asm: Cleanup prefetch primitives
This is based on a patch originally by hpa.

With the current improvements to the alternatives, we can simply use %P1
as a mem8 operand constraint and rely on the toolchain to generate the
proper instruction sizes. For example, on 32-bit, where we use an empty
old instruction we get:

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c104648b, len: 4), repl: (c195566c, len: 4)
  c104648b: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90
  c195566c: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 4b 5c

  ...

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c18e09b4, len: 3), repl: (c1955948, len: 3)
  c18e09b4: alt_insn: 90 90 90
  c1955948: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 08

  ...

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c1190cf9, len: 7), repl: (c1955a79, len: 7)
  c1190cf9: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90 90 90 90
  c1955a79: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 0d a0 d4 85 c1

all with the proper padding done depending on the size of the
replacement instruction the compiler generates.

c1118b3602 x86: kvm: use alternatives for VMCALL vs. VMMCALL if kernel text is read-only
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.

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

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

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

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

b9a3b4c976 mm, x86: Revisit tlb_flushall_shift tuning for page flushes except on IvyBridge
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.

Erratum text:

[Revision Guide for AMD Family 16h Models 00h-0Fh Processors,
document 51810 Rev. 3.04 November 2013]

793 Specific Combination of Writes to Write Combined Memory Types and
Locked Instructions May Cause Core Hang

Description

Under a highly specific and detailed set of internal timing
conditions, a locked instruction may trigger a timing sequence whereby
the write to a write combined memory type is not flushed, causing the
locked instruction to stall indefinitely.

Potential Effect on System

Processor core hang.

Suggested Workaround

BIOS should set MSR
C001_1020[15] = 1b.

Fix Planned

No fix planned

09dc68d958 x86/cpu: Track legacy CPU model data only on 32-bit kernels
struct cpu_dev's c_models is only ever set inside CONFIG_X86_32
conditionals (or code that's being built for 32-bit only), so
there's no use of reserving the (empty) space for the model
names in a 64-bit kernel.

Similarly, c_size_cache is only used in the #else of a
CONFIG_X86_64 conditional, so reserving space for (and in one
case even initializing) that field is pointless for 64-bit
kernels too.

While moving both fields to the end of the structure, I also
noticed that:

 - the c_models array size was one too small, potentially causing
   table_lookup_model() to return garbage on Intel CPUs (intel.c's
   instance was lacking the sentinel with family being zero), so the
   patch bumps that by one,

 - c_models' vendor sub-field was unused (and anyway redundant
   with the base structure's c_x86_vendor field), so the patch deletes it.

Also rename the legacy fields so that their legacy nature stands out
and comment their declarations.

8c6b79bb12 x86, microcode, AMD: Make cpu_has_amd_erratum() use the correct struct cpuinfo_x86
cpu_has_amd_erratum() is buggy, because it uses the per-cpu cpu_info
before it is filled by smp_store_boot_cpu_info() / smp_store_cpu_info().

If early microcode loading is enabled its collect_cpu_info_amd_early()
will fill ->x86 and so the fallback to boot_cpu_data is not used. But
->x86_vendor was not filled and is still X86_VENDOR_INTEL resulting in
no errata fixes getting applied and my system hangs on boot.

Using cpu_info in cpu_has_amd_erratum() is wrong anyway: its only
caller init_amd() will have a struct cpuinfo_x86 as parameter and the
set_cpu_bug() that is controlled by cpu_has_amd_erratum() also only uses
that struct.

So pass the struct cpuinfo_x86 from init_amd() to cpu_has_amd_erratum()
and the broken fallback can be dropped.

148f9bb877 x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

682469a5db x86, AMD: Correct {rd,wr}msr_amd_safe warnings
The idea with those routines is to slowly phase them out and not call
them on anything else besides K8. They even have a check for that which,
when called too early, fails. Let me explain:

It gets the cpuinfo_x86 pointer from the per_cpu array and when this
happens for cpu0, before its boot_cpu_data has been copied back to the
per_cpu array in smp_store_boot_cpu_info(), we get an empty struct and
thus the check fails.

Use boot_cpu_data directly instead.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
  developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
  one would like.

  The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
  by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
  create initial page tables.  In particular, rather than estimating how
  much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
  memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
  now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
  a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.

  This has several advantages:

  1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
     very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
     early in the kernel startup).

  2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
     from above the 4 GB limit.  This allows kdump to work on very large
     systems.

  3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
     equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
     by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.

  The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.

  Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
  were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
  __phys_addr()/__pa()."

Pull x86 cpu updates from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a corrected attempt at the x86/cpu branch, this time with the
  fixes in that makes it not break on KVM (current or past), or any
  other virtualizer which traps on this configuration.

  Again, the biggest change here is enabling the WC+ memory type on AMD
  processors, if the BIOS doesn't."

52d3d06e70 x86, cpu, amd: Fix WC+ workaround for older virtual hosts
The WC+ workaround for F10h introduces a new MSR and kvm host #GPs
on accesses to unknown MSRs if paravirt is not compiled in. Use the
exception-handling MSR accessors so as not to break 3.8 and later guests
booting on older hosts.

Remove a redundant family check while at it.

f0322bd341 x86, AMD: Enable WC+ memory type on family 10 processors
In some cases BIOS may not enable WC+ memory type on family 10
processors, instead converting what would be WC+ memory to CD type.
On guests using nested pages this could result in performance
degradation. This patch enables WC+.

Pull "Nuke 386-DX/SX support" from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree removes ancient-386-CPUs support and thus zaps quite a bit
  of complexity:

    24 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 425 deletions(-)

  ... which complexity has plagued us with extra work whenever we wanted
  to change SMP primitives, for years.

  Unfortunately there's a nostalgic cost: your old original 386 DX33
  system from early 1991 won't be able to boot modern Linux kernels
  anymore.  Sniff."

I'm not sentimental.  Good riddance.
