'range_new' doesn't seem to be used after init. It is only passed to memset(), sum_ranges(), memcmp() and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range(), the latter of which also only passes it on to various *range* library functions. So mark it __initdata to free up an extra page after init. Its contents are wiped at every call to mtrr_calc_range_state(), so it being static is not about preserving state between calls, but simply to avoid a 4k+ stack frame. While there, add a comment explaining this and why it's safe. We could also mark nr_range_new as __initdata, but since it's just a single int and also doesn't carry state between calls (it is unconditionally assigned to before it is read), we might as well make it an ordinary automatic variable.

The effort to replace mtrr_add() with architecture agnostic arch_phys_wc_add() is complete, this will ensure write-combining implementations (PAT on x86) is taken advantage instead of using MTRR. With the effort done now, hide direct MTRR access for drivers. The legacy user-space /proc/mtrr ABI is not affected. Update x86 documentation on MTRR to reflect the completion of the phasing out of direct access to MTRR, also add a note on platform firmware code use of MTRRs based on the obituary discussion of MTRRs on Linux [0].

We use pat_enabled in x86-specific code to see if PAT is enabled or not but we're granting full access to it even though readers do not need to set it. If, for instance, we granted access to it to modules later they then could override the variable setting... no bueno. This renames pat_enabled to a new static variable __pat_enabled. Folks are redirected to use pat_enabled() now. Code that sets this can only be internal to pat.c. Apart from the early kernel parameter "nopat" to disable PAT, we also have a few cases that disable it later and make use of a helper pat_disable(). It is wrapped under an ifdef but since that code cannot run unless PAT was enabled its not required to wrap it with ifdefs, unwrap that. Likewise, since "nopat" doesn't really change non-PAT systems just remove that ifdef as well. Although we could add and use an early_param_off(), these helpers don't use __read_mostly but we want to keep __read_mostly for __pat_enabled as this is a hot path -- upon boot, for instance, a simple guest may see ~4k accesses to pat_enabled(). Since __read_mostly early boot params are not that common we don't add a helper for them just yet. Signed-off-by: NLuis R.

It is possible to enable CONFIG_MTRR and CONFIG_X86_PAT and end up with a system with MTRR functionality disabled but PAT functionality enabled. This can happen, for instance, when the Xen hypervisor is used where MTRRs are not supported but PAT is. This can happen on Linux as of commit 47591df5 ("xen: Support Xen pv-domains using PAT") by Juergen, introduced in v3.19. Technically, we should assume the proper CPU bits would be set to disable MTRRs but we can't always rely on this. At least on the Xen Hypervisor, for instance, only X86_FEATURE_MTRR was disabled as of Xen 4.4 through Xen commit 586ab6a [0], but not X86_FEATURE_K6_MTRR, X86_FEATURE_CENTAUR_MCR, or X86_FEATURE_CYRIX_ARR for instance. Roger Pau Monné has clarified though that although this is technically true we will never support PVH on these CPU types so Xen has no need to disable these bits on those systems. As per Roger, AMD K6, Centaur and VIA chips don't have the necessary hardware extensions to allow running PVH guests [1]. As per Toshi it is also possible for the BIOS to disable MTRR support, in such cases get_mtrr_state() would update the MTRR state as per the BIOS, we need to propagate this information as well. x86 MTRR code relies on quite a bit of checks for mtrr_if being set to check to see if MTRRs did get set up. Instead, lets provide a generic getter for that. This also adds a few checks where they were not before which could potentially safeguard ourselves against incorrect usage of MTRR where this was not desirable. Where possible match error codes as if MTRRs were disabled on arch/x86/include/asm/mtrr.h. Lastly, since disabling MTRRs can happen at run time and we could end up with PAT enabled, best record now in our logs when MTRRs are disabled.

This patch adds the argument 'uniform' to mtrr_type_lookup(), which gets set to 1 when a given range is covered uniformly by MTRRs, i.e. the range is fully covered by a single MTRR entry or the default type. Change pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() to honor the 'uniform' flag to see if it is safe to create a huge page mapping in the range. This allows them to create a huge page mapping in a range covered by a single MTRR entry of any memory type. It also detects a non-optimal request properly. They continue to check with the WB type since it does not effectively change the uniform mapping even if a request spans multiple MTRR entries. pmd_set_huge() logs a warning message to a non-optimal request so that driver writers will be aware of such a case. Drivers should make a mapping request aligned to a single MTRR entry when the range is covered by MTRRs.

MTRRs contain fixed and variable entries. mtrr_type_lookup() may repeatedly call __mtrr_type_lookup() to handle a request that overlaps with variable entries. However, __mtrr_type_lookup() also handles the fixed entries, which do not have to be repeated. Therefore, this patch creates separate functions, mtrr_type_lookup_fixed() and mtrr_type_lookup_variable(), to handle the fixed and variable ranges respectively. The patch also updates the function headers to clarify the return values and output argument. It updates comments to clarify that the repeating is necessary to handle overlaps with the default type, since overlaps with multiple entries alone can be handled without such repeating. There is no functional change in this patch.

'mtrr_state.enabled' contains the FE (fixed MTRRs enabled) and E (MTRRs enabled) flags in MSR_MTRRdefType. Intel SDM, section 11.11.2.1, defines these flags as follows: - All MTRRs are disabled when the E flag is clear. The FE flag has no affect when the E flag is clear. - The default type is enabled when the E flag is set. - MTRR variable ranges are enabled when the E flag is set. - MTRR fixed ranges are enabled when both E and FE flags are set. MTRR state checks in __mtrr_type_lookup() do not match with SDM. Hence, this patch makes the following changes: - The current code detects MTRRs disabled when both E and FE flags are clear in mtrr_state.enabled. Fix to detect MTRRs disabled when the E flag is clear. - The current code does not check if the FE bit is set in mtrr_state.enabled when looking at the fixed entries. Fix to check the FE flag. - The current code returns the default type when the E flag is clear in mtrr_state.enabled. However, the default type is UC when the E flag is clear. Remove the code as this case is handled as MTRR disabled with the 1st change. In addition, this patch defines the E and FE flags in mtrr_state.enabled as follows. - FE flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_FIXED_ENABLED - E flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_ENABLED print_mtrr_state() and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range() are also updated accordingly.

When an MTRR entry is inclusive to a requested range, i.e. the start and end of the request are not within the MTRR entry range but the range contains the MTRR entry entirely: range_start ... [mtrr_start ... mtrr_end] ... range_end __mtrr_type_lookup() ignores such a case because both start_state and end_state are set to zero. This bug can cause the following issues: 1) reserve_memtype() tracks an effective memory type in case a request type is WB (ex. /dev/mem blindly uses WB). Missing to track with its effective type causes a subsequent request to map the same range with the effective type to fail. 2) pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() check if a requested range has any overlap with MTRRs. Missing to detect an overlap may cause a performance penalty or undefined behavior. This patch fixes the bug by adding a new flag, 'inclusive', to detect the inclusive case. This case is then handled in the same way as end_state:1 since the first region is the same. With this fix, __mtrr_type_lookup() handles the inclusive case properly.

__mtrr_type_lookup() checks MTRR fixed ranges when mtrr_state.have_fixed is set and start is less than 0x100000. However, the 'else if (start < 0x1000000)' in the code checks with an incorrect address as it has an extra-zero in the address. The code still runs correctly as this check is meaningless, though. This patch replaces the incorrect address check with 'else' with no condition.

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4. CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a per-cpu variable. To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and __switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

The original motivation for these patches was for an Intel CPU feature called MPX. The patch to add a disabled feature for it will go in with the other parts of the support. But, in the meantime, there are a few other features than MPX that we can make assumptions about at compile-time based on compile options. Add them to disabled-features.h and check them with cpu_feature_enabled(). Note that this gets rid of the last things that needed an #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64 in cpufeature.h. Yay!

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled for SMP. UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on UP. arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly. This is probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write cr4. It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

We have problems in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c::generic_get_mtrr(). 1. for base, we miss cast base_lo to 64bit before shifting. Fix that by adding u64 casting. 2. for size, it only can handle 44 bits aka 32bits + page_shift Fix that with 64bit mask instead of 32bit mask_lo, then range could be more than 44bits. At the same time, we need to update size_or_mask for old cpus that does support cpuid 0x80000008 to get phys_addr. Need to set high 32bits to all 1s, otherwise will not get correct size for them. Also fix mtrr_add_page: it should check base and (base + size - 1) instead of base and size, as base and size could be small but base + size could bigger enough to be out of boundary. We can use boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits directly to avoid size_or_mask.

It turns out we have some problem with initial mtrr range retrieval. The current sequence is: x86_get_mtrr_mem_range ==> bunchs of add_range_with_merge ==> bunchs of subract_range ==> clean_sort_range add_range_with_merge for [0,1M) sort_range() add_range_with_merge could have blank slots, so we can not just sort only, that will have final result have extra blank slot in head. So move that calling add_range_with_merge for [0,1M), with that we could avoid extra clean_sort_range calling.

Several drivers currently use mtrr_add through various #ifdef guards and/or drm wrappers. The vast majority of them want to add WC MTRRs on x86 systems and don't actually need the MTRR if PAT (i.e. ioremap_wc, etc) are working. arch_phys_wc_add and arch_phys_wc_del are new functions, available on all architectures and configurations, that add WC MTRRs on x86 if needed (and handle errors) and do nothing at all otherwise. They're also easier to use than mtrr_add and mtrr_del, so the call sites can be simplified. As an added benefit, this will avoid wasting MTRRs and possibly warning pointlessly on PAT-supporting systems.

With the variable operated on being of "unsigned long" type, neither ffs() nor fls() are suitable to use on them, as those truncate their arguments to 32 bits. Using __ffs() and __fls() respectively at once eliminates the need to subtract 1 from their results. Additionally, with the alignment value subsequently used as a shift count, it must be enforced to be less than BITS_PER_LONG (and on 64-bit there's no need for it to be any smaller).

Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have been disabled. This patch provides resolution for that. Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it. And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other processors.

MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemened using stop_machine() before, as this gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths (where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc). Now that we have a new stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() API, use it for rendezvous during mtrr init of a logical processor that is coming online. For the rest (runtime MTRR modification, system boot, resume paths), use stop_machine() to implement the rendezvous sequence. This will consolidate and cleanup the code.

MTRR rendezvous sequence using stop_one_cpu_nowait() can potentially happen in parallel with another system wide rendezvous using stop_machine(). This can lead to deadlock (The order in which works are queued can be different on different cpu's. Some cpu's will be running the first rendezvous handler and others will be running the second rendezvous handler. Each set waiting for the other set to join for the system wide rendezvous, leading to a deadlock). MTRR rendezvous sequence is not implemented using stop_machine() as this gets called both from the process context aswell as the cpu online paths (where the cpu has not come online and the interrupts are disabled etc). stop_machine() works with only online cpus. For now, take the stop_machine mutex in the MTRR rendezvous sequence that gets called from an online cpu (here we are in the process context and can potentially sleep while taking the mutex). And the MTRR rendezvous that gets triggered during cpu online doesn't need to take this stop_machine lock (as the stop_machine() already ensures that there is no cpu hotplug going on in parallel by doing get_online_cpus()) TBD: Pursue a cleaner solution of extending the stop_machine() infrastructure to handle the case where the calling cpu is still not online and use this for MTRR rendezvous sequence. fixes: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=672008Reported-by: NVadim Kotelnikov <vadimuzzz@inbox.ru> Signed-off-by: NSuresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110623182056.807230326@sbsiddha-MOBL3.sc.intel.com Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.35+, backport a week or two after this gets more testing in mainline Signed-off-by: NH.

On laptops with core i5/i7, there were reports that after resume graphics workloads were performing poorly on a specific AP, while the other cpu's were ok. This was observed on a 32bit kernel specifically. Debug showed that the PAT init was not happening on that AP during resume and hence it contributing to the poor workload performance on that cpu. On this system, resume flow looked like this: 1. BP starts the resume sequence and we reinit BP's MTRR's/PAT early on using mtrr_bp_restore() 2. Resume sequence brings all AP's online 3. Resume sequence now kicks off the MTRR reinit on all the AP's. 4. For some reason, between point 2 and 3, we moved from BP to one of the AP's. My guess is that printk() during resume sequence is contributing to this. We don't see similar behavior with the 64bit kernel but there is no guarantee that at this point the remaining resume sequence (after AP's bringup) has to happen on BP. 5. set_mtrr() was assuming that we are still on BP and skipped the MTRR/PAT init on that cpu (because of 1 above) 6. But we were on an AP and this led to not reprogramming PAT on this cpu leading to bad performance. Fix this by doing unconditional mtrr_if->set_all() in set_mtrr() during MTRR/PAT init. This might be unnecessary if we are still running on BP. But it is of no harm and will guarantee that after resume, all the cpu's will be in sync with respect to the MTRR/PAT registers.

Some subsystems in the x86 tree need to carry out suspend/resume and shutdown operations with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled and they define sysdev classes and sysdevs or sysdev drivers for this purpose. This leads to unnecessarily complicated code and excessive memory usage, so switch them to using struct syscore_ops objects for this purpose instead. Generally, there are three categories of subsystems that use sysdevs for implementing PM operations: (1) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks ignore their arguments entirely (the majority), (2) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their struct sys_device argument, but don't really need to do that, because they can be implemented differently in an arguably simpler way (io_apic.c), and (3) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their struct sys_device argument, but the value of that argument is always the same and could be ignored (microcode_core.c). In all of these cases the subsystems in question may be readily converted to using struct syscore_ops objects for power management and shutdown. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.
