Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
"This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
partitioning mechanism.
The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
odd as well.
We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
per package nature of this mechanism.
In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
combinations of the hardware can be utilized.
There are two ways of associating a cache partition:
- Task
A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
partition associated to the group.
- CPU
All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
which the CPU they are running on is associated with.
That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.
The main expected user sare:
- Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
the cash w/o disturbing others
- Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.
- Latency sensitive enterprise workloads
- In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
channel attacks"
[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
had more time.
But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
_so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will
break ]

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This is the last functional update from the tip tree for 4.10. It got
delayed due to a newly reported and anlyzed variant of BIOS bug and
the resulting wreckage:
- Seperation of TSC being marked realiable and the fact that the
platform provides the TSC frequency via CPUID/MSRs and making use
for it for GOLDMONT.
- TSC adjust MSR validation and sanitizing:
The TSC adjust MSR contains the offset to the hardware counter. The
sum of the adjust MSR and the counter is the TSC value which is
read via RDTSC.
On at least two machines from different vendors the BIOS sets the
TSC adjust MSR to negative values. This happens on cold and warm
boot. While on cold boot the offset is a few milliseconds, on warm
boot it basically compensates the power on time of the system. The
BIOSes are not even using the adjust MSR to set all CPUs in the
package to the same offset. The offsets are different which renders
the TSC unusable,
What's worse is that the TSC deadline timer has a HW feature^Wbug.
It malfunctions when the TSC adjust value is negative or greater
equal 0x80000000 resulting in silent boot failures, hard lockups or
non firing timers. This looks like some hardware internal 32/64bit
issue with a sign extension problem. Intel has been silent so far
on the issue.
The update contains sanity checks and keeps the adjust register
within working limits and in sync on the package.
As it looks like this disease is spreading via BIOS crapware, we
need to address this urgently as the boot failures are hard to
debug for users"

The workaround for the AMD Erratum E400 (Local APIC timer stops in C1E
state) is a two step process:
- Selection of the E400 aware idle routine
- Detection whether the platform is affected
The idle routine selection happens for possibly affected CPUs depending on
family/model/stepping information. These range of CPUs is not necessarily
affected as the decision whether to enable the C1E feature is made by the
firmware. Unfortunately there is no way to query this at early boot.
The current implementation polls a MSR in the E400 aware idle routine to
detect whether the CPU is affected. This is inefficient on non affected
CPUs because every idle entry has to do the MSR read.
There is a better way to detect this before going idle for the first time
which requires to seperate the bug flags:
X86_BUG_AMD_E400 - Selects the E400 aware idle routine and
enables the detection
X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E - Set when the platform is affected by E400
Replace the current X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E usage by the new X86_BUG_AMD_E400
bug bit to select the idle routine which currently does an unconditional
detection poll. X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E is going to be used in later patches
to remove the MSR polling and simplify the handling of this misfeature.

Intel Xeons from Ivy Bridge onwards support a processor identification
number set in the factory. To the user this is a handy unique number to
identify a particular CPU. Intel can decode this to the fab/production
run to track errors. On systems that have it, include it in the machine
check record. I'm told that this would be helpful for users that run
large data centers with multi-socket servers to keep track of which CPUs
are seeing errors.

* Add some clarifying comments and spacing.
* Mask out [63:2] in the disabled-but-not-locked case

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.

Monitored cached line may not wake up from mwait on certain
Goldmont based CPUs. This patch will avoid calling
current_set_polling_and_test() and thereby not set the TIF_ flag.
The result is that we'll always send IPIs for wakeups.

cpufeatures.h currently defines X86_BUG(9) twice on 32-bit:
#define X86_BUG_NULL_SEG X86_BUG(9) /* Nulling a selector preserves the base */
...
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
#define X86_BUG_ESPFIX X86_BUG(9) /* "" IRET to 16-bit SS corrupts ESP/RSP high bits */
#endif
I think what happened was that this added the X86_BUG_ESPFIX, but
in an #ifdef below most of the bugs:
58a5aac533 x86/entry/32: Introduce and use X86_BUG_ESPFIX instead of paravirt_enabled
Then this came along and added X86_BUG_NULL_SEG, but collided
with the earlier one that did the bug below the main block
defining all the X86_BUG()s.

Erratum 88 affects old AMD K8s, where a SWAPGS fails to cause an input
dependency on GS. Therefore, we need to MFENCE before it.
But that MFENCE is expensive and unnecessary on the remaining x86 CPUs
out there so patch it out on the CPUs which don't require it.

[ 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"

Kirill Shutemov pointed this out to me.
The tip tree currently has commit:
dfb4a70f2 [x86/cpufeature, x86/mm/pkeys: Add protection keys related CPUID definitions]
whioch added support for two new CPUID bits: X86_FEATURE_PKU and
X86_FEATURE_OSPKE. But, those bits were mis-merged and put in
cpufeature.h instead of cpufeatures.h.
This didn't cause any breakage *except* it keeps the "ospke" and
"pku" bits from showing up in cpuinfo.
Now cpuinfo has the two new flags:
flags : ... pku ospke
BTW, is it really wise to have cpufeature.h and cpufeatures.h?
It seems like they can only cause confusion and mahem with tab
completion.

x86_64 has very clean espfix handling on paravirt: espfix64 is set
up in native_iret, so paravirt systems that override iret bypass
espfix64 automatically. This is robust and straightforward.
x86_32 is messier. espfix is set up before the IRET paravirt patch
point, so it can't be directly conditionalized on whether we use
native_iret. We also can't easily move it into native_iret without
regressing performance due to a bizarre consideration. Specifically,
on 64-bit kernels, the logic is:
if (regs->ss & 0x4)
setup_espfix;
On 32-bit kernels, the logic is:
if ((regs->ss & 0x4) && (regs->cs & 0x3) == 3 &&
(regs->flags & X86_EFLAGS_VM) == 0)
setup_espfix;
The performance of setup_espfix itself is essentially irrelevant, but
the comparison happens on every IRET so its performance matters. On
x86_64, there's no need for any registers except flags to implement
the comparison, so we fold the whole thing into native_iret. On
x86_32, we don't do that because we need a free register to
implement the comparison efficiently. We therefore do espfix setup
before restoring registers on x86_32.
This patch gets rid of the explicit paravirt_enabled check by
introducing X86_BUG_ESPFIX on 32-bit systems and using an ALTERNATIVE
to skip espfix on paravirt systems where iret != native_iret. This is
also messy, but it's at least in line with other things we do.
This improves espfix performance by removing a branch, but no one
cares. More importantly, it removes a paravirt_enabled user, which is
good because paravirt_enabled is ill-defined and is going away.

The Intel Software Developer Manual describes bit 24 in the MCG_CAP
MSR:
MCG_SER_P (software error recovery support present) flag,
bit 24 — Indicates (when set) that the processor supports
software error recovery
But only some models with this capability bit set will actually
generate recoverable machine checks.
Check the model name and set a synthetic capability bit. Provide
a command line option to set this bit anyway in case the kernel
doesn't recognise the model name.

There are two CPUID bits for protection keys. One is for whether
the CPU contains the feature, and the other will appear set once
the OS enables protection keys. Specifically:
Bit 04: OSPKE. If 1, OS has set CR4.PKE to enable
Protection keys (and the RDPKRU/WRPKRU instructions)
This is because userspace can not see CR4 contents, but it can
see CPUID contents.
X86_FEATURE_PKU is referred to as "PKU" in the hardware documentation:
CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):ECX.PKU [bit 3]
X86_FEATURE_OSPKE is "OSPKU":
CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):ECX.OSPKE [bit 4]
These are the first CPU features which need to look at the
ECX word in CPUID leaf 0x7, so this patch also includes
fetching that word in to the cpuinfo->x86_capability[] array.
Add it to the disabled-features mask when its config option is
off. Even though we are not using it here, we also extend the
REQUIRED_MASK_BIT_SET() macro to keep it mirroring the
DISABLED_MASK_BIT_SET() version.
This means that in almost all code, you should use:
cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_PKU)
and *not* the CONFIG option.

Move them to a separate header and have the following
dependency:
x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h
This makes it easier to use the header in asm code and not
include the whole cpufeature.h and add guards for asm.
