3ad918e65d Merge branch 'x86-timers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 timers updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This update contains:

   - The solution for the TSC deadline timer borkage, which is caused by
     a hardware problem in the TSC_ADJUST/TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER logic.

     The problem is documented now and fixed with a microcode update, so
     we can remove the workaround and just check for the microcode version.

     If the microcode is not up to date, then the TSC deadline timer is
     disabled. If the borkage is fixed by the proper microcode version,
     then the deadline timer can be used. In both cases the restrictions
     to the range of the TSC_ADJUST value, which were added as
     workarounds, are removed.

  - A few simple fixes and updates to the timer related x86 code"

a1272dd553 x86/tsc: Call check_system_tsc_reliable() before unsynchronized_tsc()
tsc_clocksource_reliable is initialized in check_system_tsc_reliable(), but
it is checked in unsynchronized_tsc() which is called before the
initialization.

In practice that's not an issue because systems which mark the TSC
reliable have X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC set as well, which is evaluated
in unsynchronized_tsc() before tsc_clocksource_reliable.

Reorder the calls so initialization happens before usage.

5c3c2ea688 x86/tsc: Fold set_cyc2ns_scale() into caller
The newly introduced wrapper function only has one caller,
and this one is conditional, causing a harmless warning when
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled:

  arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c:189:13: error: 'set_cyc2ns_scale' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

My first idea was to move the wrapper inside of that #ifdef,
but on second thought it seemed nicer to remove it completely
again and rename __set_cyc2ns_scale back to set_cyc2ns_scale,
but leaving the extra argument.

b421b22b00 x86/tsc, sched/clock, clocksource: Use clocksource watchdog to provide stable sync points
Currently we keep sched_clock_tick() active for stable TSC in order to
keep the per-CPU state semi up-to-date. The (obvious) problem is that
by the time we detect TSC is borked, our per-CPU state is also borked.

So hook into the clocksource watchdog and call a method after we've
found it to still be stable.

There's the obvious race where the TSC goes wonky between finding it
stable and us running the callback, but closing that is too much work
and not really worth it, since we're already detecting TSC wobbles
after the fact, so we cannot, per definition, fully avoid funny clock
values.

And since the watchdog runs less often than the tick, this is also an
optimization.

8309f86cd4 x86/tsc: Provide 'tsc=unstable' boot parameter
Since the clocksource watchdog will only detect broken TSC after the
fact, all TSC based clocks will likely have observed non-continuous
values before/when switching away from TSC.

Therefore only thing to fully avoid random clock movement when your
BIOS randomly mucks with TSC values from SMI handlers is reporting the
TSC as unstable at boot.

44fee88cea x86/tsc: Fix ART for TSC_KNOWN_FREQ
Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him.

The ART to TSC relation is only set up for systems which use the refined
TSC calibration. Systems with known TSC frequency (available via CPUID 15)
are not using the refined calibration and therefor the ART to TSC relation
is never established.

Add the setup to the known frequency init path which skips ART
calibration. The init code needs to be duplicated as for systems which use
refined calibration the ART setup must be delayed until calibration has
been done.

The problem has been there since the ART support was introdduced, but only
detected now because Subhransu tested the first time on hardware which has
TSC frequency enumerated via CPUID 15.

Note for stable: The conditional has changed from TSC_RELIABLE to
     	 	 TSC_KNOWN_FREQUENCY.

f94c8d1169 sched/clock, x86/tsc: Rework the x86 'unstable' sched_clock() interface
Wanpeng Li reported that since the following commit:

  acb04058de ("sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash")

... KVM always runs with unstable sched-clock even though KVM's
kvm_clock _is_ stable.

The problem is that we've tied clear_sched_clock_stable() to the TSC
state, and overlooked that sched_clock() is a paravirt function.

Solve this by doing two things:

 - tie the sched_clock() stable state more clearly to the TSC stable
   state for the normal (!paravirt) case.

 - only call clear_sched_clock_stable() when we mark TSC unstable
   when we use native_sched_clock().

The first means we can actually run with stable sched_clock in more
situations then before, which is good. And since commit:

  12907fbb1a ("sched/clock, clocksource: Add optional cs::mark_unstable() method")

... this should be reliable. Since any detection of TSC fail now results
in marking the TSC unstable.

f2e04214ef x86/tsc: Avoid the large time jump when sanitizing TSC ADJUST
Olof reported that on a machine which has a BIOS wreckaged TSC the
timestamps in dmesg are making a large jump because the TSC value is
jumping forward after resetting the TSC ADJUST register to a sane value.

This can be avoided by calling the TSC ADJUST saniziting function before
initializing the per cpu sched clock machinery. That takes the offset into
account and avoid the time jump.

What cannot be avoided is that the 'Firmware Bug' warnings on the secondary
CPUs are printed with the large time offsets because it would be too much
effort and ugly hackery to print those warnings into a buffer and emit them
after the adjustemt on the starting CPUs. It's a firmware bug and should be
fixed in firmware. The weird timestamps are collateral damage and just
illustrate the sillyness of the BIOS folks:

5bae156241 x86/tsc: Force TSC_ADJUST register to value >= zero
Roland reported that his DELL T5810 sports a value add BIOS which
completely wreckages the TSC. The squirmware [(TM) Ingo Molnar] boots with
random negative TSC_ADJUST values, different on all CPUs. That renders the
TSC useless because the sycnchronization check fails.

Roland tested the new TSC_ADJUST mechanism. While it manages to readjust
the TSCs he needs to disable the TSC deadline timer, otherwise the machine
just stops booting.

Deeper investigation unearthed that the TSC deadline timer is sensitive to
the TSC_ADJUST value. Writing TSC_ADJUST to a negative value results in an
interrupt storm caused by the TSC deadline timer.

This does not make any sense and it's hard to imagine what kind of hardware
wreckage is behind that misfeature, but it's reliably reproducible on other
systems which have TSC_ADJUST and TSC deadline timer.

While it would be understandable that a big enough negative value which
moves the resulting TSC readout into the negative space could have the
described effect, this happens even with a adjust value of -1, which keeps
the TSC readout definitely in the positive space. The compare register for
the TSC deadline timer is set to a positive value larger than the TSC, but
despite not having reached the deadline the interrupt is raised
immediately. If this happens on the boot CPU, then the machine dies
silently because this setup happens before the NMI watchdog is armed.

Further experiments showed that any other adjustment of TSC_ADJUST works as
expected as long as it stays in the positive range. The direction of the
adjustment has no influence either. See the lkml link for further analysis.

Yet another proof for the theory that timers are designed by janitors and
the underlying (obviously undocumented) mechanisms which allow BIOSes to
wreckage them are considered a feature. Well done Intel - NOT!

To address this wreckage add the following sanity measures:

- If the TSC_ADJUST value on the boot cpu is not 0, set it to 0

- If the TSC_ADJUST value on any cpu is negative, set it to 0

- Prevent the cross package synchronization mechanism from setting negative
  TSC_ADJUST values.

8b223bc7ab x86/tsc: Store and check TSC ADJUST MSR
The TSC_ADJUST MSR shows whether the TSC has been modified. This is helpful
in a two aspects:

1) It allows to detect BIOS wreckage, where SMM code tries to 'hide' the
   cycles spent by storing the TSC value at SMM entry and restoring it at
   SMM exit. On affected machines the TSCs run slowly out of sync up to the
   point where the clocksource watchdog (if available) detects it.

   The TSC_ADJUST MSR allows to detect the TSC modification before that and
   eventually restore it. This is also important for SoCs which have no
   watchdog clocksource and therefore TSC wreckage cannot be detected and
   acted upon.

2) All threads in a package are required to have the same TSC_ADJUST
   value. Broken BIOSes break that and as a result the TSC synchronization
   check fails.

   The TSC_ADJUST MSR allows to detect the deviation when a CPU comes
   online. If detected set it to the value of an already online CPU in the
   same package. This also allows to reduce the number of sync tests
   because with that in place the test is only required for the first CPU
   in a package.

   In principle all CPUs in a system should have the same TSC_ADJUST value
   even across packages, but with physical CPU hotplug this assumption is
   not true because the TSC starts with power on, so physical hotplug has
   to do some trickery to bring the TSC into sync with already running
   packages, which requires to use an TSC_ADJUST value different from CPUs
   which got powered earlier.

   A final enhancement is the opportunity to compensate for unsynced TSCs
   accross nodes at boot time and make the TSC usable that way. It won't
   help for TSCs which run apart due to frequency skew between packages,
   but this gets detected by the clocksource watchdog later.

The first step toward this is to store the TSC_ADJUST value of a starting
CPU and compare it with the value of an already online CPU in the same
package. If they differ, emit a warning and adjust it to the reference
value. The !SMP version just stores the boot value for later verification.

984fecebda x86/tsc: Finalize the split of the TSC_RELIABLE flag
All places which used the TSC_RELIABLE to skip the delayed calibration
have been converted to use the TSC_KNOWN_FREQ flag.

Make the immeditate clocksource registration, which skips the long term
calibration, solely depend on TSC_KNOWN_FREQ.

The TSC_RELIABLE now merily removes the requirement for a watchdog

4635fdc696 x86/tsc: Mark Intel ATOM_GOLDMONT TSC reliable
On Intel GOLDMONT Atom SoC TSC is the only available clocksource, so there
is no way to do software calibration or have a watchdog clocksource for it.
Software calibration is already disabled via the TSC_KNOWN_FREQ flag, but
the watchdog requirement still persists, so such systems cannot switch to
high resolution/nohz mode.

Mark it reliable, so it becomes usable. Hardware teams confirmed that this
is safe on that SoC.

47c95a46d0 x86/tsc: Add X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ flag
The X86_FEATURE_TSC_RELIABLE flag in Linux kernel implies both reliable
(at runtime) and trustable (at calibration). But reliable running and
trustable calibration independent of each other. 

Add a new flag X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ, which denotes that the frequency
is known (via MSR/CPUID). This flag is only meant to skip the long term
calibration on systems which have a known frequency.

Add X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ to the skip the delayed calibration and
leave X86_FEATURE_TSC_RELIABLE in place.

After converting the existing users of X86_FEATURE_TSC_RELIABLE to use
either both flags or just X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ we can seperate the
functionality.

commit aa297292d7 ("x86/tsc: Enumerate SKL cpu_khz and tsc_khz via
CPUID") added code to retrieve the crystal and TSC frequency from CPUID
leaves. If the crystal freqency is enumerated as 0,the resulting TSC
frequency is 0 as well. For CPUs with a known fixed crystal frequency a
quirk list is available to set the frequency,

Kabylake and SkylakeX CPUs are missing in the list of CPUs which need this
quirk. Add them so the TSC frequency can be calculated correctly.

6731b0d611 x86/timers/apic: Inform TSC deadline clockevent device about recalibration
This patch eliminates a source of imprecise APIC timer interrupts,
which imprecision may result in double interrupts or even late
interrupts.

The TSC deadline clockevent devices' configuration and registration
happens before the TSC frequency calibration is refined in
tsc_refine_calibration_work().

This results in the TSC clocksource and the TSC deadline clockevent
devices being configured with slightly different frequencies: the former
gets the refined one and the latter are configured with the inaccurate
frequency detected earlier by means of the "Fast TSC calibration using PIT".

Within the APIC code, introduce the notifier function
lapic_update_tsc_freq() which reconfigures all per-CPU TSC deadline
clockevent devices with the current tsc_khz.

Call it from the TSC code after TSC calibration refinement has happened.

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).

However, CPUID extensions are preferred, when available.

f9677e0f83 x86/tsc: Always Running Timer (ART) correlated clocksource
On modern Intel systems TSC is derived from the new Always Running Timer
(ART). ART can be captured simultaneous to the capture of
audio and network device clocks, allowing a correlation between timebases
to be constructed. Upon capture, the driver converts the captured ART
value to the appropriate system clock using the correlated clocksource
mechanism.

On systems that support ART a new CPUID leaf (0x15) returns parameters
“m” and “n” such that:

TSC_value = (ART_value * m) / n + k [n >= 1]

[k is an offset that can adjusted by a privileged agent. The
IA32_TSC_ADJUST MSR is an example of an interface to adjust k.

c25323c073 x86/tsc: Use topology functions
It's simpler to look at the topology mask than iterating over all online cpus
to find a cpu on the same package.

b9511cd761 perf/x86: Fix time_shift in perf_event_mmap_page
Commit:

  b20112edea ("perf/x86: Improve accuracy of perf/sched clock")

allowed the time_shift value in perf_event_mmap_page to be as much
as 32.  Unfortunately the documented algorithms for using time_shift
have it shifting an integer, whereas to work correctly with the value
32, the type must be u64.

In the case of perf tools, Intel PT decodes correctly but the timestamps
that are output (for example by perf script) have lost 32-bits of
granularity so they look like they are not changing at all.

Fix by limiting the shift to 31 and adjusting the multiplier accordingly.

Also update the documentation of perf_event_mmap_page so that new code
based on it will be more future-proof.
