Introduce an AMD accumlated power reporting mechanism for the Family 15h, Model 60h processor that can be used to calculate the average power consumed by a processor during a measurement interval. The feature support is indicated by CPUID Fn8000_0007_EDX[12]. This feature will be implemented both in hwmon and perf. The current design provides one event to report per package/processor power consumption by counting each compute unit power value. Here the gory details of how the computation is done: * Tsample: compute unit power accumulator sample period * Tref: the PTSC counter period (PTSC: performance timestamp counter) * N: the ratio of compute unit power accumulator sample period to the PTSC period * Jmax: max compute unit accumulated power which is indicated by MSR_C001007b[MaxCpuSwPwrAcc] * Jx/Jy: compute unit accumulated power which is indicated by MSR_C001007a[CpuSwPwrAcc] * Tx/Ty: the value of performance timestamp counter which is indicated by CU_PTSC MSR_C0010280[PTSC] * PwrCPUave: CPU average power i. Determine the ratio of Tsample to Tref by executing CPUID Fn8000_0007. N = value of CPUID Fn8000_0007_ECX[CpuPwrSampleTimeRatio[15:0]]. ii. Read the full range of the cumulative energy value from the new MSR MaxCpuSwPwrAcc. Jmax = value returned. iii. At time x, software reads CpuSwPwrAcc and samples the PTSC. Jx = value read from CpuSwPwrAcc and Tx = value read from PTSC. iv. At time y, software reads CpuSwPwrAcc and samples the PTSC. Jy = value read from CpuSwPwrAcc and Ty = value read from PTSC. v. Calculate the average power consumption for a compute unit over time period (y-x). Unit of result is uWatt: if (Jy < Jx) // Rollover has occurred Jdelta = (Jy + Jmax) - Jx else Jdelta = Jy - Jx PwrCPUave = N * Jdelta * 1000 / (Ty - Tx) Simple example: root@hr-zp:/home/ray/tip# ./tools/perf/perf stat -a -e 'power/power-pkg/' make -j4 CHK include/config/kernel.release CHK include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h CHK include/generated/timeconst.h CHK include/generated/bounds.h CHK include/generated/asm-offsets.h CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/generated/compile.h SKIPPED include/generated/compile.h Building modules, stage 2.

UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior (UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected) __ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message. So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements ubsan handlers printing errors. GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined option and its suboptions). However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2]. Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

As illustrated by commit a3afe70b ("[S390] latencytop s390 support."), HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT is defined by an architecture to advertise an implementation of save_stack_trace_tsk. However, as of 9212ddb5 ("stacktrace: provide save_stack_trace_tsk() weak alias") a dummy implementation is provided if STACKTRACE=y. Given that LATENCYTOP already depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and selects STACKTRACE, we can remove HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT altogether.

The Intel Volume Management Device (VMD) is a Root Complex Integrated Endpoint that acts as a host bridge to a secondary PCIe domain. BIOS can reassign one or more Root Ports to appear within a VMD domain instead of the primary domain. The immediate benefit is that additional PCIe domains allow more than 256 buses in a system by letting bus numbers be reused across different domains. VMD domains do not define ACPI _SEG, so to avoid domain clashing with host bridges defining this segment, VMD domains start at 0x10000, which is greater than the highest possible 16-bit ACPI defined _SEG. This driver enumerates and enables the domain using the root bus configuration interface provided by the PCI subsystem. The driver provides configuration space accessor functions (pci_ops), bus and memory resources, an MSI IRQ domain with irq_chip implementation, and DMA operations necessary to use devices through the VMD endpoint's interface. VMD routes I/O as follows: 1) Configuration Space: BAR 0 ("CFGBAR") of VMD provides the base address and size for configuration space register access to VMD-owned root ports. It works similarly to MMCONFIG for extended configuration space. Bus numbering is independent and does not conflict with the primary domain. 2) MMIO Space: BARs 2 and 4 ("MEMBAR1" and "MEMBAR2") of VMD provide the base address, size, and type for MMIO register access. These addresses are not translated by VMD hardware; they are simply reservations to be distributed to root ports' memory base/limit registers and subdivided among devices downstream. 3) DMA: To interact appropriately with an IOMMU, the source ID DMA read and write requests are translated to the bus-device-function of the VMD endpoint. Otherwise, DMA operates normally without VMD-specific address translation. 4) Interrupts: Part of VMD's BAR 4 is reserved for VMD's MSI-X Table and PBA. MSIs from VMD domain devices and ports are remapped to appear as if they were issued using one of VMD's MSI-X table entries. Each MSI and MSI-X address of VMD-owned devices and ports has a special format where the address refers to specific entries in the VMD's MSI-X table. As with DMA, the interrupt source ID is translated to VMD's bus-device-function. The driver provides its own MSI and MSI-X configuration functions specific to how MSI messages are used within the VMD domain, and provides an irq_chip for independent IRQ allocation to relay interrupts from VMD's interrupt handler to the appropriate device driver's handler. 5) Errors: PCIe error message are intercepted by the root ports normally (e.g., AER), except with VMD, system errors (i.e., firmware first) are disabled by default. AER and hotplug interrupts are translated in the same way as endpoint interrupts. 6) VMD does not support INTx interrupts or IO ports. Devices or drivers requiring these features should either not be placed below VMD-owned root ports, or VMD should be disabled by BIOS for such endpoints.

This is a third approach to workaround long standing issue with LPSS on BayTrail. First one [1] was reverted since it didn't resolve the issue comprehensively. Second one [2] was rejected by internal review. The LPSS DMA controller does not have neither _PS0 nor _PS3 method. Moreover it can be powered off automatically whenever the last LPSS device goes down. In case of no power any access to the DMA controller will hang the system. The behaviour is reproduced on some HP laptops based on Intel BayTrail [3,4] as well as on ASuS T100TA transformer. Power on the LPSS island through the registers accessible in a specific way.

This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: NWaiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

Make CONFIG_MICROCODE a bool. It was practically a bool already anyway, since early loader was forcing it to =y. Regardless, there's no real reason to have something be a module which gets built-in on the majority of installations out there. And its not like there's noticeable change in functionality - we still can load late microcode - just the module glue disappears.

Most distributions end up enabling SWIOTLB already with 32-bit kernels due to the combination of CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST|CONFIG_XEN=y as those end up requiring the SWIOTLB. However for those that are not interested in virtualization and run in 32-bit they will discover that: "32-bit PAE 4.2.0 kernel (no IOMMU code) would hang when writing to my USB disk. The kernel spews million(-ish messages per sec) to syslog, effectively "hanging" userspace with my kernel. Oct 2 14:33:06 voodoochild kernel: [ 223.287447] nommu_map_sg: overflow 25dcac000+1024 of device mask ffffffff Oct 2 14:33:06 voodoochild kernel: [ 223.287448] nommu_map_sg: overflow 25dcac000+1024 of device mask ffffffff Oct 2 14:33:06 voodoochild kernel: [ 223.287449] nommu_map_sg: overflow 25dcac000+1024 of device mask ffffffff ... etc ..." Enabling it makes the problem go away. N.B. With a6dfa128 "config: Enable NEED_DMA_MAP_STATE by default when SWIOTLB is selected" we also have the important part of the SG macros enabled to make this work properly - in case anybody wants to backport this patch.

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: NDave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: Eric W.

An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate CPUs. On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost is lower than flushing individual entries. Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee. If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault. This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case. The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM. Linear mapped reader on a 4-node machine with 64G RAM and 48 CPUs 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 159.62 ( 0.00%) 120.68 ( 24.40%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 30.59 ( 0.00%) 2.80 ( 90.85%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 6.70 ( 0.00%) 0.64 ( 90.38%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 581.00 611.43 System 5804.93 4111.76 Elapsed 161.03 122.12 This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second. The impact is lower on a single socket machine. 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 25.33 ( 0.00%) 20.38 ( 19.54%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 0.91 ( 0.00%) 1.44 (-58.24%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 0.28 ( 0.00%) 0.47 (-65.34%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 58.09 57.64 System 111.82 76.56 Elapsed 27.29 22.55 It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second. The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not resident at all.

Given that a write-back (WB) mapping plus non-temporal stores is expected to be the most efficient way to access PMEM, update the definition of ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API to imply arch support for WB-mapped-PMEM. This is needed as a pre-requisite for adding PMEM to the direct map and mapping it with struct page. The above clarification for X86_64 means that memcpy_to_pmem() is permitted to use the non-temporal arch_memcpy_to_pmem() rather than needlessly fall back to default_memcpy_to_pmem() when the pcommit instruction is not available. When arch_memcpy_to_pmem() is not guaranteed to flush writes out of cache, i.e. on older X86_32 implementations where non-temporal stores may just dirty cache, ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API is simply disabled. The default fall back for persistent memory handling remains. Namely, map it with the WT (write-through) cache-type and hope for the best. arch_has_pmem_api() is updated to only indicate whether the arch provides the proper helpers to meet the minimum "writes are visible outside the cache hierarchy after memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem()". Code that cares whether wmb_pmem() actually flushes writes to pmem must now call arch_has_wmb_pmem() directly. Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H.

This should result in a pretty sizeable performance gain for reads. For rough comparison I did some simple read testing using PMEM to compare reads of write combining (WC) mappings vs write-back (WB). This was done on a random lab machine. PMEM reads from a write combining mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=100000 100000+0 records in 100000+0 records out 409600000 bytes (410 MB) copied, 9.2855 s, 44.1 MB/s PMEM reads from a write-back mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=1000000 1000000+0 records in 1000000+0 records out 4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 3.44034 s, 1.2 GB/s To be able to safely support a write-back aperture I needed to add support for the "read flush" _DSM flag, as outlined in the DSM spec: http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf This flag tells the ND BLK driver that it needs to flush the cache lines associated with the aperture after the aperture is moved but before any new data is read. This ensures that any stale cache lines from the previous contents of the aperture will be discarded from the processor cache, and the new data will be read properly from the DIMM. We know that the cache lines are clean and will be discarded without any writeback because either a) the previous aperture operation was a read, and we never modified the contents of the aperture, or b) the previous aperture operation was a write and we must have written back the dirtied contents of the aperture to the DIMM before the I/O was completed. In order to add support for the "read flush" flag I needed to add a generic routine to invalidate cache lines, mmio_flush_range(). This is protected by the ARCH_HAS_MMIO_FLUSH Kconfig variable, and is currently only supported on x86.

We currently register a platform device for e820 type-12 memory and register a nvdimm bus beneath it. Registering the platform device triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that search currently comes up empty. Building the nvdimm-bus registration into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces libnvdimm to be built-in. Instead, convert the built-in portion of CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following reasons: 1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting 2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem (unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by default) 3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan "iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)" Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NDan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

VM86 is entirely broken if ptrace, syscall auditing, or NOHZ_FULL is in use. The code is a big undocumented mess, it's a real PITA to test, and it looks like a big chunk of vm86_32.c is dead code. It also plays awful games with the entry asm. No one should be using it anyway. Use DOSBOX or KVM instead. Let's accelerate its slow death. Remove it from EXPERT and default it to n. Distros should not enable it. In the unlikely event that some user needs it, they can easily re-enable it. While we're at it, rename it to CONFIG_X86_LEGACY_VM86 so that 'make oldconfig' users will be prompted again. I left CONFIG_VM86 as an alias to avoid a treewide replacement of the names. We can clean that up once the current asm and vm86 code churn settles down.

Based on an original patch by Ross Zwisler [1]. Writes to persistent memory have the potential to be posted to cpu cache, cpu write buffers, and platform write buffers (memory controller) before being committed to persistent media. Provide apis, memcpy_to_pmem(), wmb_pmem(), and memremap_pmem(), to write data to pmem and assert that it is durable in PMEM (a persistent linear address range). A '__pmem' attribute is added so sparse can track proper usage of pointers to pmem. This continues the status quo of pmem being x86 only for 4.2, but reworks to ioremap, and wider implementation of memremap() will enable other archs in 4.3.

nd_pmem attaches to persistent memory regions and namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm subsystem, and, same as the original pmem driver, presents the system-physical-address range as a block device. The existing e820-type-12 to pmem setup is converted to an nvdimm_bus that emits an nd_namespace_io device. Note that the X in 'pmemX' is now derived from the parent region. This provides some stability to the pmem devices names from boot-to-boot. The minor numbers are also more predictable by passing 0 to alloc_disk().

In talking to Aravind recently about making certain AMD topology attributes available to the MCE injection module, it seemed like that CONFIG_X86_HT thing is more or less superfluous. It is def_bool y, depends on SMP and gets enabled in the majority of .configs - distro and otherwise - out there. So let's kill it and make code behind it depend directly on SMP.

Peter Zijstra noticed that in arch/x86/Kconfig there are a lot of X86_{32,64} clauses in the X86 symbol, plus there are a number of similar selects in the X86_32 and X86_64 config definitions as well - which all overlap in an inconsistent mess. So: - move all select's from X86_32 and X86_64 to the X64 config option - sort their names, so that duplications are easier to spot - align their if clauses, so that they are easier to identify at a glance - and so that weirdnesses stand out more No change in functionality: 105 insertions(+) 105 deletions(-) Originally-from: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: H.
