Fundamental model of the current Linux kernel is to lazily init and restore FPU instead of restoring the task state during context switch. This changes that fundamental lazy model to the non-lazy model for the processors supporting xsave feature. Reasons driving this model change are: i. Newer processors support optimized state save/restore using xsaveopt and xrstor by tracking the INIT state and MODIFIED state during context-switch. This is faster than modifying the cr0.TS bit which has serializing semantics. ii. Newer glibc versions use SSE for some of the optimized copy/clear routines. With certain workloads (like boot, kernel-compilation etc), application completes its work with in the first 5 task switches, thus taking upto 5 #DNA traps with the kernel not getting a chance to apply the above mentioned pre-load heuristic. iii. Some xstate features (like AMD's LWP feature) don't honor the cr0.TS bit and thus will not work correctly in the presence of lazy restore. Non-lazy state restore is needed for enabling such features. Some data on a two socket SNB system: * Saved 20K DNA exceptions during boot on a two socket SNB system. * Saved 50K DNA exceptions during kernel-compilation workload. * Improved throughput of the AVX based checksumming function inside the kernel by ~15% as xsave/xrstor is faster than the serializing clts/stts pair. Also now kernel_fpu_begin/end() relies on the patched alternative instructions. So move check_fpu() which uses the kernel_fpu_begin/end() after alternative_instructions().

Currently for x86 and x86_32 binaries, fpstate in the user sigframe is copied to/from the fpstate in the task struct. And in the case of signal delivery for x86_64 binaries, if the fpstate is live in the CPU registers, then the live state is copied directly to the user sigframe. Otherwise fpstate in the task struct is copied to the user sigframe. During restore, fpstate in the user sigframe is restored directly to the live CPU registers. Historically, different code paths led to different bugs. For example, x86_64 code path was not preemption safe till recently. Also there is lot of code duplication for support of new features like xsave etc. Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels. New strategy is as follows: Signal delivery: Both for 32/64-bit frames, align the core math frame area to 64bytes as needed by xsave (this where the main fpu/extended state gets copied to and excludes the legacy compatibility fsave header for the 32-bit [f]xsave frames). If the state is live, copy the register state directly to the user frame. If not live, copy the state in the thread struct to the user frame. And for 32-bit [f]xsave frames, construct the fsave header separately before the actual [f]xsave area. Signal return: As the 32-bit frames with [f]xstate has an additional 'fsave' header, copy everything back from the user sigframe to the fpstate in the task structure and reconstruct the fxstate from the 'fsave' header (Also user passed pointers may not be correctly aligned for any attempt to directly restore any partial state). At the next fpstate usage, everything will be restored to the live CPU registers. For all the 64-bit frames and the 32-bit fsave frame, restore the state from the user sigframe directly to the live CPU registers. 64-bit signals always restored the math frame directly, so we can expect the math frame pointer to be correctly aligned. For 32-bit fsave frames, there are no alignment requirements, so we can restore the state directly. "lat_sig catch" microbenchmark numbers (for x86, x86_64, x86_32 binaries) are with in the noise range with this change.

The checks that exist in mwait_usable() for "idle=" kernel parameters are insufficient. As a result, mwait_usable() can return 1 even if "idle=nomwait" or "idle=poll" or "idle=halt" parameters are passed. Of these cases, incorrect handling of idle=nomwait is a universal problem since mwait can get used for usual CPU idling. However the rest of the cases are problematic only during CPU Hotplug (offline) because, in the CPU offline path, the function mwait_play_dead() is called, which might result in mwait being used in the offline CPUs, if mwait_usable() happens to return 1. Fix these issues by checking for the boot time "idle=" kernel parameter properly in mwait_usable(). The first issue (usual cpu idling) is demonstrated below: Before applying the patch (dmesg snippet): [ 0.000000] Command line: [...] idle=nomwait [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: [...] idle=nomwait [ 0.000000] RCU dyntick-idle grace-period acceleration is enabled.

The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the 32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially it turned off the use of HLT. This workaround was commented in the code as: "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations" "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA wreckage. It should be safe to remove." H. Peter Anvin additionally adds: "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind, including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT caused some of these systems to fail. They were by far in the minority even back then." Alan Cox further says: "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during DMA tended to go astray. Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520 fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of use." So, let's finally drop this.

Both functions are mostly identical. The differences are: - x86_32's cpu_idle() makes use of check_pgt_cache(), which is a nop on both x86_32 and x86_64. - x86_64's cpu_idle() uses enter/__exit_idle/(), on x86_32 these function are a nop. - In contrast to x86_32, x86_64 calls rcu_idle_enter/exit() in the innermost loop because idle notifications need RCU. Calling these function on x86_32 also in the innermost loop does not hurt. So we can merge both functions.

While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to others. So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module. But that kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained. Even if it isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.

The idea behind commit d91ee586 ("cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle") was to have one call - disable_cpuidle() which would make pm_idle not be molested by other code. It disallows cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent). But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle. This depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU. In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor (Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get: Brought up 2 CPUs invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1 RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>] [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4 ...

Meaning we end up going to hypervisor twice instead of just once. The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup. We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen. This patch does that.

mwait_idle() is a C1-only idle loop intended to be more efficient than HLT on SMP hardware that supports it. But mwait_idle() has been replaced by the more general mwait_idle_with_hints(), which handles both C1 and deeper C-states. ACPI uses only mwait_idle_with_hints(), and never uses mwait_idle(). Deprecate mwait_idle() and the "idle=mwait" cmdline param to simplify the x86 idle code. After this change, kernels configured with (!CONFIG_ACPI=n && !CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware that support MWAIT will simply use HLT. If MWAIT is desired on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above can be used. cc: x86@kernel.org cc: stable@kernel.org # .39.x Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

The workaround for AMD erratum 400 uses the term "c1e" falsely suggesting: 1. Intel C1E is somehow involved 2. All AMD processors with C1E are involved Use the string "amd_c1e" instead of simply "c1e" to clarify that this workaround is specific to AMD's version of C1E. Use the string "e400" to clarify that the workaround is specific to AMD processors with Erratum 400. This patch is text-substitution only, with no functional change. cc: x86@kernel.org Acked-by: NBorislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

Add this_cpu_has() which determines if the current cpu has a certain ability using a segment prefix and a bit test operation. For that we need to add bit operations to x86s percpu.h. Many uses of cpu_has use a pointer passed to a function to determine the current flags. That is no longer necessary after this patch. However, this patch only converts the straightforward cases where cpu_has is used with this_cpu_ptr. The rest is work for later. -tj: Rolled up patch to add x86_ prefix and use percpu_read() instead of percpu_read_stable().

Current stack dump code scans entire stack and check each entry contains a pointer to kernel code. If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign. However this was not going to happen because scan start point was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not meet. Commit 9c0729dc ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked invalid. This patch fixes this by reverting above commit while retaining stack_frame() helper as suggested by Frederic Weisbecker. End result looks like below: before: [ 3.508329] Call Trace: [ 3.508551] [<ffffffff814f35c9>] ? panic+0x91/0x199 [ 3.508662] [<ffffffff814f3739>] ? printk+0x68/0x6a [ 3.508770] [<ffffffff81a981b2>] ? mount_block_root+0x257/0x26e [ 3.508876] [<ffffffff81a9821f>] ? mount_root+0x56/0x5a [ 3.508975] [<ffffffff81a98393>] ? prepare_namespace+0x170/0x1a9 [ 3.509216] [<ffffffff81a9772b>] ? kernel_init+0x1d2/0x1e2 [ 3.509335] [<ffffffff81003894>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [ 3.509442] [<ffffffff814f6880>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [ 3.509542] [<ffffffff81a97559>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x1e2 [ 3.509641] [<ffffffff81003890>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 after: [ 3.522991] Call Trace: [ 3.523351] [<ffffffff814f35b9>] panic+0x91/0x199 [ 3.523468] [<ffffffff814f3729>] ? printk+0x68/0x6a [ 3.523576] [<ffffffff81a981b2>] mount_block_root+0x257/0x26e [ 3.523681] [<ffffffff81a9821f>] mount_root+0x56/0x5a [ 3.523780] [<ffffffff81a98393>] prepare_namespace+0x170/0x1a9 [ 3.523885] [<ffffffff81a9772b>] kernel_init+0x1d2/0x1e2 [ 3.523987] [<ffffffff81003894>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [ 3.524228] [<ffffffff814f6880>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [ 3.524345] [<ffffffff81a97559>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x1e2 [ 3.524445] [<ffffffff81003890>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 -v5: * fix build breakage with oprofile -v4: * use 0 instead of regs->bp * separate out printk changes -v3: * apply comment from Frederic * add a couple of printk fixes Signed-off-by: NNamhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Acked-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: NFrederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Soren Sandmann <ssp@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> LKML-Reference: <1300416006-3163-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

ea530692 made a CPU use monitor/mwait when offline. This is not the optimal choice for AMD wrt to powersavings and we'd prefer our cores to halt (i.e. enter C1) instead. For this, the same selection whether to use monitor/mwait has to be used as when we select the idle routine for the machine. With this patch, offlining cores 1-5 on a X6 machine allows core0 to boost again.

cpuidle/x86/perf: fix power:cpu_idle double end events and throw cpu_idle events from the cpuidle layer Currently intel_idle and acpi_idle driver show double cpu_idle "exit idle" events -> this patch fixes it and makes cpu_idle events throwing less complex. It also introduces cpu_idle events for all architectures which use the cpuidle subsystem, namely: - arch/arm/mach-at91/cpuidle.c - arch/arm/mach-davinci/cpuidle.c - arch/arm/mach-kirkwood/cpuidle.c - arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c - arch/drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c (for all cases, not only mwait) - arch/x86/kernel/process.c (did throw events before, but was a mess) - drivers/idle/intel_idle.c (did throw events before) Convention should be: Fire cpu_idle events inside the current pm_idle function (not somewhere down the the callee tree) to keep things easy. Current possible pm_idle functions in X86: c1e_idle, poll_idle, cpuidle_idle_call, mwait_idle, default_idle -> this is really easy is now. This affects userspace: The type field of the cpu_idle power event can now direclty get mapped to: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpuidle/stateX/{name,desc,usage,time,...} instead of throwing very CPU/mwait specific values. This change is not visible for the intel_idle driver. For the acpi_idle driver it should only be visible if the vendor misses out C-states in his BIOS. Another (perf timechart) patch reads out cpuidle info of cpu_idle events from: /sys/.../cpuidle/stateX/*, then the cpuidle events are mapped to the correct C-/cpuidle state again, even if e.g. vendors miss out C-states in their BIOS and for example only export C1 and C3. -> everything is fine.

Having four variables for the same thing: idle_halt, idle_nomwait, force_mwait and boot_option_idle_overrides is rather confusing and unnecessary complex. if idle= boot param is passed, only set up one variable: boot_option_idle_overrides Introduces following functional changes/fixes: - intel_idle driver does not register if any idle=xy boot param is passed. - processor_idle.c will also not register a cpuidle driver and get active if idle=halt is passed. Before a cpuidle driver with one (C1, halt) state got registered Now the default_idle function will be used which finally uses the same idle call to enter sleep state (safe_halt()), but without registering a whole cpuidle driver. That means idle= param will always avoid cpuidle drivers to register with one exception (same behavior as before): idle=nomwait may still register acpi_idle cpuidle driver, but C1 will not use mwait, but hlt. This can be a workaround for IO based deeper sleep states where C1 mwait causes problems.

Add these new power trace events: power:cpu_idle power:cpu_frequency power:machine_suspend The old C-state/idle accounting events: power:power_start power:power_end Have now a replacement (but we are still keeping the old tracepoints for compatibility): power:cpu_idle and power:power_frequency is replaced with: power:cpu_frequency power:machine_suspend is newly introduced. Jean Pihet has a patch integrated into the generic layer (kernel/power/suspend.c) which will make use of it. the type= field got removed from both, it was never used and the type is differed by the event type itself. perf timechart userspace tool gets adjusted in a separate patch.

Replace all uses of current_cpu_data with this_cpu operations on the per cpu structure cpu_info. The scala accesses are replaced with the matching this_cpu ops which results in smaller and more efficient code. In the long run, it might be a good idea to remove cpu_data() macro too and use per_cpu macro directly. tj: updated description Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: NH.
