Compiling without CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC set, apic.c will not be compiled, and the irq tracepoints will not be created via the CREATE_TRACE_POINTS macro. When CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC is not set, we get the following build error: LD init/built-in.o arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `trace_x86_platform_ipi_entry': linux-test.git/arch/x86/include/asm/trace/irq_vectors.h:66: undefined reference to `__tracepoint_x86_platform_ipi_entry' arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `trace_x86_platform_ipi_exit': linux-test.git/arch/x86/include/asm/trace/irq_vectors.h:66: undefined reference to `__tracepoint_x86_platform_ipi_exit' arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `trace_irq_work_entry': linux-test.git/arch/x86/include/asm/trace/irq_vectors.h:72: undefined reference to `__tracepoint_irq_work_entry' arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `trace_irq_work_exit': linux-test.git/arch/x86/include/asm/trace/irq_vectors.h:72: undefined reference to `__tracepoint_irq_work_exit' arch/x86/built-in.o:(__jump_table+0x8): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_x86_platform_ipi_entry' arch/x86/built-in.o:(__jump_table+0x14): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_x86_platform_ipi_exit' arch/x86/built-in.o:(__jump_table+0x20): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_irq_work_entry' arch/x86/built-in.o:(__jump_table+0x2c): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_irq_work_exit' make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 As irq.c is always compiled for x86, it is a more appropriate location to create the irq tracepoints.

[Purpose of this patch] As Vaibhav explained in the thread below, tracepoints for irq vectors are useful. http://www.spinics.net/lists/mm-commits/msg85707.html <snip> The current interrupt traces from irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit provide when an interrupt is handled. They provide good data about when the system has switched to kernel space and how it affects the currently running processes. There are some IRQ vectors which trigger the system into kernel space, which are not handled in generic IRQ handlers. Tracing such events gives us the information about IRQ interaction with other system events. The trace also tells where the system is spending its time. We want to know which cores are handling interrupts and how they are affecting other processes in the system. Also, the trace provides information about when the cores are idle and which interrupts are changing that state. <snip> On the other hand, my usecase is tracing just local timer event and getting a value of instruction pointer. I suggested to add an argument local timer event to get instruction pointer before. But there is another way to get it with external module like systemtap. So, I don't need to add any argument to irq vector tracepoints now. [Patch Description] Vaibhav's patch shared a trace point ,irq_vector_entry/irq_vector_exit, in all events. But there is an above use case to trace specific irq_vector rather than tracing all events. In this case, we are concerned about overhead due to unwanted events. So, add following tracepoints instead of introducing irq_vector_entry/exit. so that we can enable them independently. - local_timer_vector - reschedule_vector - call_function_vector - call_function_single_vector - irq_work_entry_vector - error_apic_vector - thermal_apic_vector - threshold_apic_vector - spurious_apic_vector - x86_platform_ipi_vector Also, introduce a logic switching IDT at enabling/disabling time so that a time penalty makes a zero when tracepoints are disabled. Detailed explanations are as follows. - Create trace irq handlers with entering_irq()/exiting_irq(). - Create a new IDT, trace_idt_table, at boot time by adding a logic to _set_gate(). It is just a copy of original idt table. - Register the new handlers for tracpoints to the new IDT by introducing macros to alloc_intr_gate() called at registering time of irq_vector handlers. - Add checking, whether irq vector tracing is on/off, into load_current_idt(). This has to be done below debug checking for these reasons. - Switching to debug IDT may be kicked while tracing is enabled. - On the other hands, switching to trace IDT is kicked only when debugging is disabled. In addition, the new IDT is created only when CONFIG_TRACING is enabled to avoid being used for other purposes.

This will pave the way for each apic driver to be self-contained and eliminate the need for apic_probe[]. Order in which apic drivers are listed in the .apicdrivers section is important, as this determines the apic probe order. And this is enforced by the ordering of apic driver files in the Makefile and the macros apic_driver()/apic_drivers().

Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old nmi_watchdog any more. In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are using the default clocksource, hpet. The old nmi_watchdog code relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still alive. With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false postives. This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any variables and functions calls. The stubs are the same ones used by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.

Combining the softlockup and hardlockup code causes watchdog.c to build even without the hardlockup detection support. So if an arch, that has the previous and the new nmi watchdog implementations cohabiting, wants to know if the generic one is in use, CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR is not a reliable check. We need to use CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR instead.

The new nmi_watchdog (which uses the perf event subsystem) is very similar in structure to the softlockup detector. Using Ingo's suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file: kernel/watchdog.c. Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every 60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups. To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event overflow event. If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is most likely in trouble. To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires. If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the warning is printed to the console. I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths work. V2: - cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination - surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem - re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space - added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases - removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events V3: - comment cleanups - drop support for older softlockup code - per_cpu cleanups - completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector - use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection - #ifdef cleanups - rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR - documentation additions V4: - documentation fixes - convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var - powerpc compile fixes V5: - split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups TODO: - figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period [fweisbec: merged conflict patch] Signed-off-by: NDon Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> LKML-Reference: <1273266711-18706-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NFrederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

Introduce NOOP APIC driver. We should use it in case if apic was disabled due to hardware of software/firmware problems (including user requested to disable it case). The driver is attempting to catch any inappropriate apic operation call with warning issue. Also it is possible to use some apic operation like IPI calls, read/write without checking for apic presence which should make callers code easier.

arch/x86/kernel/ is getting a bit crowded, and the APIC drivers are scattered into various different files. Move them to arch/x86/kernel/apic/*, and also remove the 'gen' prefix from those which had it. Also move APIC related functionality: the IO-APIC driver, the NMI and the IPI code.
