UV4 uses a GAM (globally addressed memory) architecture that supports
variable sized memory per node. This replaces the old "M" value (number
of address bits per node) with a range table for conversions between
addresses and physical node (pnode) id's. This table is obtained from UV
BIOS via the EFI UVsystab table. Support for older EFI UVsystab tables
is maintained.

Migrate references from the blade info structs to the per node hub info
structs. This phases out the allocation of the list of per blade info
structs on node 0, in favor of a per node hub info struct allocated on
the node's local memory.
There are also some minor cosemetic changes in the comments and whitespace
to clean things up a bit.

Allocate and setup per node hub info structs. CPU 0/Node 0 hub info
is statically allocated to be accessible early in system startup. The
remaining hub info structs are allocated on the node's local memory,
and shared among the CPU's on that node. This leaves the small amount
of info unique to each CPU in the per CPU info struct.
Memory is saved by combining the common per node info fields to common
node local structs. In addtion, since the info is read only only after
setup, it should stay in the L3 cache of the local processor socket.
This should therefore improve the cache hit rate when a group of cpus
on a node are all interrupted for a common task.

Move references to blade local processor ID to the new per cpu info
structs. Create an access function that makes this move, and other
potential moves opaque to callers of this function. Define a flag
that indicates to callers in external GPL modules that this function
replaces any local definition. This allows calling source code to be
built for both pre-UV4 kernels as well as post-UV4 kernels.

This adds the MMR definitions for UV4 via an automated script that uses
the output from a hardware verilog code to symbol converter. The large
number of insertions is caused by the UV4 design changing many similarly
named fields in MMR's that are named the same. This prompted the extra
production of architecture dependent field defines.

Some versions of Intel PT do not support tracing across VMXON, more
specifically, VMXON will clear TraceEn control bit and any attempt to
set it before VMXOFF will throw a #GP, which in the current state of
things will crash the kernel. Namely:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// kvm -nographic
on such a machine will kill it.
To avoid this, notify the intel_pt driver before VMXON and after
VMXOFF so that it knows when not to enable itself.

The recently introduced batched invalidations mechanism uses its own
mechanism for shootdown. However, it does wrong accounting of
interrupts (e.g., inc_irq_stat is called for local invalidations),
trace-points (e.g., TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN for local invalidations) and
may break some platforms as it bypasses the invalidation mechanisms of
Xen and SGI UV.
This patch reuses the existing TLB flushing mechnaisms instead. We use
NULL as mm to indicate a global invalidation is required.

Windows lets applications choose the frequency of the timer tick,
and in Windows 10 the maximum rate was changed from 1024 Hz to
2048 Hz. Unfortunately, because of the way the Windows API
works, most applications who need a higher rate than the default
64 Hz will just do
timeGetDevCaps(&tc, sizeof(tc));
timeBeginPeriod(tc.wPeriodMin);
and pick the maximum rate. This causes very high CPU usage when
playing media or games on Windows 10, even if the guest does not
actually use the CPU very much, because the frequent timer tick
causes halt_poll_ns to kick in.
There is no really good solution, especially because Microsoft
could sooner or later bump the limit to 4096 Hz, but for now
the best we can do is lower a bit the upper limit for
halt_poll_ns. :-(

For several years, the common practice has been to boot UVs with the
"nobau" parameter on the command line, to disable the BAU. We've
decided that it makes more sense to just disable the BAU by default in
the kernel, and provide the option to turn it on, if desired.
For now, having the on/off switch doesn't buy us any more than just
reversing the logic would, but we're working towards having the BAU
enabled by default on UV4. When those changes are in place, having the
on/off switch will make more sense than an enable flag, since the
default behavior will be different depending on the system version.
I've also added a bit of documentation for the new parameter to
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.

It turns out AMD gets x86_max_cores wrong when there are compute
units.
The issue is that Linux assumes:
nr_logical_cpus = nr_cores * nr_siblings
But AMD reports its CU unit as 2 cores, but then sets num_smp_siblings
to 2 as well.

[ Resolved conflict and moved the synthetic CPUID slot to 19. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
The MBM init patch enumerates the Intel MBM (Memory b/w monitoring)
and initializes the perf events and datastructures for monitoring the
memory b/w.
Its based on original patch series by Tony Luck and Kanaka Juvva.
Memory bandwidth monitoring (MBM) provides OS/VMM a way to monitor
bandwidth from one level of cache to another. The current patches
support L3 external bandwidth monitoring. It supports both 'local
bandwidth' and 'total bandwidth' monitoring for the socket. Local
bandwidth measures the amount of data sent through the memory controller
on the socket and total b/w measures the total system bandwidth.
Extending the cache quality of service monitoring (CQM) we add two
more events to the perf infrastructure:
intel_cqm_llc/local_bytes - bytes sent through local socket memory controller
intel_cqm_llc/total_bytes - total L3 external bytes sent
The tasks are associated with a Resouce Monitoring ID (RMID) just like
in CQM and OS uses a MSR write to indicate the RMID of the task during
scheduling.

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).
There's a background article at LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/
The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a
fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
virtual memory range.
This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also
allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
below).
This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
if a user-space application calls:
mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);
or
mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);
(note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
and unwritable.
So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security
advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.
We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.
There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
pull request.
Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
(CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
(like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's
any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
flip the default"

Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
(ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.
The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces. These bugs are
hard to detect at the source code level. Such bugs result in
incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.
The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/. The tool's (very
simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
upstream). Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.
Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
the instruction stream and interprets it. (Right now objtool supports
the x86-64 architecture.)
From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:
"The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
objtool which runs at compile time. It has a "check" subcommand
which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.
Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.
For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.
It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
.altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."
When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
warnings in compiler warning format:
warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free. Most of
them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.
There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:
- To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
that they can be used for optimized live patching.
- To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
CFI stack frames at build time. CFI debuginfo is notoriously
unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.
The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
or CFI debuginfo angle"

Harry reported, that he's able to trigger a system freeze with cpu hot
unplug. The freeze turned out to be a live lock caused by recent changes in
irq_force_complete_move().
When fixup_irqs() and from there irq_force_complete_move() is called on the
dying cpu, then all other cpus are in stop machine an wait for the dying cpu
to complete the teardown. If there is a move of an interrupt pending then
irq_force_complete_move() sends the cleanup IPI to the cpus in the old_domain
mask and waits for them to clear the mask. That's obviously impossible as
those cpus are firmly stuck in stop machine with interrupts disabled.
I should have known that, but I completely overlooked it being concentrated on
the locking issues around the vectors. And the existance of the call to
__irq_complete_move() in the code, which actually sends the cleanup IPI made
it reasonable to wait for that cleanup to complete. That call was bogus even
before the recent changes as it was just a pointless distraction.
We have to look at two cases:
1) The move_in_progress flag of the interrupt is set
This means the ioapic has been updated with the new vector, but it has not
fired yet. In theory there is a race:
set_ioapic(new_vector) <-- Interrupt is raised before update is effective,
i.e. it's raised on the old vector.
So if the target cpu cannot handle that interrupt before the old vector is
cleaned up, we get a spurious interrupt and in the worst case the ioapic
irq line becomes stale, but my experiments so far have only resulted in
spurious interrupts.
But in case of cpu hotplug this should be a non issue because if the
affinity update happens right before all cpus rendevouz in stop machine,
there is no way that the interrupt can be blocked on the target cpu because
all cpus loops first with interrupts enabled in stop machine, so the old
vector is not yet cleaned up when the interrupt fires.
So the only way to run into this issue is if the delivery of the interrupt
on the apic/system bus would be delayed beyond the point where the target
cpu disables interrupts in stop machine. I doubt that it can happen, but at
least there is a theroretical chance. Virtualization might be able to
expose this, but AFAICT the IOAPIC emulation is not as stupid as the real
hardware.
I've spent quite some time over the weekend to enforce that situation,
though I was not able to trigger the delayed case.
2) The move_in_progress flag is not set and the old_domain cpu mask is not
empty.
That means, that an interrupt was delivered after the change and the
cleanup IPI has been sent to the cpus in old_domain, but not all CPUs have
responded to it yet.
In both cases we can assume that the next interrupt will arrive on the new
vector, so we can cleanup the old vectors on the cpus in the old_domain cpu
mask.

Core changes:
- The gpio_chip is now a *real device*. Until now the gpio chips
were just piggybacking the parent device or (gasp) floating in
space outside of the device model. We now finally make GPIO chips
devices. The gpio_chip will create a gpio_device which contains
a struct device, and this gpio_device struct is kept private.
Anything that needs to be kept private from the rest of the kernel
will gradually be moved over to the gpio_device.
- As a result of making the gpio_device a real device, we have added
resource management, so devm_gpiochip_add_data() will cut down on
overhead and reduce code lines. A huge slew of patches convert
almost all drivers in the subsystem to use this.
- Building on making the GPIO a real device, we add the first step
of a new userspace ABI: the GPIO character device. We take small
steps here, so we first add a pure *information* ABI and the tool
"lsgpio" that will list all GPIO devices on the system and all
lines on these devices. We can now discover GPIOs properly from
userspace. We still have not come up with a way to actually *use*
GPIOs from userspace.
- To encourage people to use the character device for the future,
we have it always-enabled when using GPIO. The old sysfs ABI is
still opt-in (and can be used in parallel), but is marked as
deprecated. We will keep it around for the foreseeable future,
but it will not be extended to cover ever more use cases.
Cleanup:
- Bjorn Helgaas removed a whole slew of per-architecture <asm/gpio.h>
includes. This dates back to when GPIO was an opt-in feature and
no shared library even existed: just a header file with proper
prototypes was provided and all semantics were up to the arch to
implement. These patches make the GPIO chip even more a proper
device and cleans out leftovers of the old in-kernel API here
and there. Still some cruft is left but it's very little now.
- There is still some clamping of return values for .get() going
on, but we now return sane values in the vast majority of drivers
and the errorpath is sanitized. Some patches for powerpc, blackfin
and unicore still drop in.
- We continue to switch the ARM, MIPS, blackfin, m68k local GPIO
implementations to use gpiochip_add_data() and cut down on code
lines.
- MPC8xxx is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
- ATH79 is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.
