There is no reason to initialize the topology cpu masks already while setup_arch() is being called. It is sufficient to initialize the masks before the scheduler becomes SMP aware. Therefore a pre-SMP initcall aka early_initcall is suffucient. This also allows to convert the cpu_topology array into a per cpu variable with a later patch. Without this patch this wouldn't be possible since the per cpu memory areas are not allocated while setup_arch is executed.

Git commit 8d8f2e18a6dbd3d09dd918788422e6ac8c878e96 "s390/vdso: ectg gettime support for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID" broke clock_gettime for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID. Git commit c742b31c "fast vdso implementation for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID" introduced the ECTG for clock id -2. Correct would have been clock id -3. Fix the whole mess, CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID is based on CPUCLOCK_SCHED and can not be speed up by the vdso. A speedup is only available for clock id -3 which is CPUCLOCK_VIRT for the task currently running on the CPU. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

show_cacheinfo() needs to access the cacheinfo structure of any online cpu. This was done with using smp_processor_id() as in index while in preemtible context. This means the cpu could be offline and the data be gone when it would be accessed. Better use any online cpu address and protect the data by get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus().

Christian Borntraeger reported that the now missing diag 44 calls (voluntary time slice end) does cause a performance regression for stop_machine() calls if a machine has more virtual cpus than the host has physical cpus. This patch mainly reverts 57f2ffe1 ("s390: remove diag 44 calls from cpu_relax()") with the exception that we still do not issue diag 44 calls if running with smt enabled. Due to group scheduling algorithms when running in LPAR this would lead to significant latencies. However, when running in LPAR we do not have more virtual than physical cpus.

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family. This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating system with all its registers and properties. The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information is a core representing a number of hardware threads. To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.

Archs have been abusing module_free() to clean up their arch-specific allocations. Since module_free() is also (ab)used by BPF and trace code, let's keep it to simple allocations, and provide a hook called before that.

debug_sprintf_event/exception are called even for debug events with a disabling debug level. All other functions already do the check in a wrapper function. Lets do the same here. Due to the var_args the compiler rejects to make this function inline. So let's wrap this via a macro. This patch saves around 80 ns on my z196 for a KVM round trip (we have two debug statements for entry and exit) when KVM is build as a module. The savings for built-in drivers is smaller as we then avoid the PLT overhead for a function call.
