      perf/x86/amd/power: Add AMD accumulated power reporting mechanism · c7ab62bf
      由 Huang Rui 提交于 
      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:

      x86/PCI: Add driver for Intel Volume Management Device (VMD) · 185a383a
      由 Keith Busch 提交于 
      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.

      x86: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS · 9e08f57d
      由 Daniel Cashman 提交于 
      x86: arch_mmap_rnd() uses hard-coded values, 8 for 32-bit and 28 for
64-bit, to generate the random offset for the mmap base address.  This
value represents a compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and
avoiding address-space fragmentation.  Replace it with a Kconfig option,
which is sensibly bounded, so that platform developers may choose where
to place this compromise.  Keep default values as new minimums.

      locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics · 45e898b7
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      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

like there's noticeable change in functionality - we still can load late

      swiotlb: Enable it under x86 PAE · 9d99c712
      由 Christian Melki 提交于 
      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.

... 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.

      kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code · 2965faa5
      由 Dave Young 提交于 
      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.

      mm: send one IPI per CPU to TLB flush all entries after unmapping pages · 72b252ae
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      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.

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.

      x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB · 96601adb
      由 Dan Williams 提交于 
      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.

      nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB · 67a3e8fe
      由 Ross Zwisler 提交于 
      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.

      libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option · 7a67832c
      由 Dan Williams 提交于 
      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)"

      x86/kconfig/32: Rename CONFIG_VM86 and default it to 'n' · 5aef51c3
      由 Andy Lutomirski 提交于 
      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.

      libnvdimm, pmem: add libnvdimm support to the pmem driver · 9f53f9fa
      由 Dan Williams 提交于 
      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().

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.
