      x86/UV: Update UV support for external NMI signals · 0d12ef0c
      Mike Travis 提交于
      The current UV NMI handler has not been updated for the changes
      in the system NMI handler and the perf operations.  The UV NMI
      handler reads an MMR in the UV Hub to check to see if the NMI
      event was caused by the external 'system NMI' that the operator
      can initiate on the System Mgmt Controller.
      
      The problem arises when the perf tools are running, causing
      millions of perf events per second on very large CPU count
      systems.  Previously this was okay because the perf NMI handler
      ran at a higher priority on the NMI call chain and if the NMI
      was a perf event, it would stop calling other NMI handlers
      remaining on the NMI call chain.
      
      Now the system NMI handler calls all the handlers on the NMI
      call chain including the UV NMI handler.  This causes the UV NMI
      handler to read the MMRs at the same millions per second rate.
      This can lead to significant performance loss and possible
      system failures.  It also can cause thousands of 'Dazed and
      Confused' messages being sent to the system console.  This
      effectively makes perf tools unusable on UV systems.
      
      To avoid this excessive overhead when perf tools are running,
      this code has been optimized to minimize reading of the MMRs as
      much as possible, by moving to the NMI_UNKNOWN notifier chain.
      This chain is called only when all the users on the standard
      NMI_LOCAL call chain have been called and none of them have
      claimed this NMI.
      
      There is an exception where the NMI_LOCAL notifier chain is
      used.  When the perf tools are in use, it's possible that the UV
      NMI was captured by some other NMI handler and then either
      ignored or mistakenly processed as a perf event.  We set a
      per_cpu ('ping') flag for those CPUs that ignored the initial
      NMI, and then send them an IPI NMI signal.  The NMI_LOCAL
      handler on each cpu does not need to read the MMR, but instead
      checks the in memory flag indicating it was pinged.  There are
      two module variables, 'ping_count' indicating how many requested
      NMI events occurred, and 'ping_misses' indicating how many stray
      NMI events.  These most likely are perf events so it shows the
      overhead of the perf NMI interrupts and how many MMR reads were avoided.
      
      This patch also minimizes the reads of the MMRs by having the
      first cpu entering the NMI handler on each node set a per HUB
      in-memory atomic value.  (Having a per HUB value avoids sending
      lock traffic over NumaLink.)  Both types of UV NMIs from the SMI
      layer are supported.

      x86/UV: Move NMI support · 1e019421
      Mike Travis 提交于
      This patch moves the UV NMI support from the x2apic file to a
      new separate uv_nmi.c file in preparation for the next sequence
      of patches. It prevents upcoming bloat of the x2apic file, and
      has the added benefit of putting the upcoming /sys/module
      parameters under the name 'uv_nmi' instead of 'x2apic_uv_x',
      which was obscure.

      x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files · 148f9bb8
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
      some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
      do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
      commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
      is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
      with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
      
      After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
      the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
      we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
      
      Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
      notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
      are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
      arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
      As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
      content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
      of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
      
      This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
      all C files.  x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
      and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
      delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

      x86/apic: Add separate apic_id_valid() functions for selected apic drivers · b7157acf
      Steffen Persvold 提交于
      As suggested by Suresh Siddha and Yinghai Lu:
      
      For x2apic pre-enabled systems, apic driver is set already early
      through early_acpi_boot_init()/early_acpi_process_madt()/
      acpi_parse_madt()/default_acpi_madt_oem_check() path so that
      apic_id_valid() checking will be sufficient during MADT and SRAT
      parsing.
      
      For non-x2apic pre-enabled systems, all apic ids should be less
      than 255.
      
      This allows us to substitute the checks in
      arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c::acpi_parse_x2apic() and
      arch/x86/mm/srat.c::acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init() with
      apic->apic_id_valid().
      
      In addition we can avoid feigning the x2apic cpu feature in the
      NumaChip apic code.
      
      The following apic drivers have separate apic_id_valid()
      functions which will accept x2apic type IDs :
      
       x2apic_phys
       x2apic_cluster
       x2apic_uv_x
       apic_numachip

      x86: uv2: Workaround for UV2 Hub bug (system global address format) · 6a469e46
      Jack Steiner 提交于
      This is a workaround for a UV2 hub bug that affects the format of system
      global addresses.
      
      The GRU API for UV2 was inadvertently broken by a hardware change.  The
      format of the physical address used for TLB dropins and for addresses used
      with instructions running in unmapped mode has changed.  This change was
      not documented and became apparent only when diags failed running on
      system simulators.
      
      For UV1, TLB and GRU instruction physical addresses are identical to
      socket physical addresses (although high NASID bits must be OR'ed into the
      address).
      
      For UV2, socket physical addresses need to be converted.  The NODE portion
      of the physical address needs to be shifted so that the low bit is in bit
      39 or bit 40, depending on an MMR value.
      
      It is not yet clear if this bug will be fixed in a silicon respin.  If it
      is fixed, the hub revision will be incremented & the workaround disabled.

      x86, UV: Fix NMI handler for UV platforms · 1d44e828
      Jack Steiner 提交于
      This fixes problems seen on UV systems handling NMIs from the
      node controller.
      
      I isolated the "dazed..." messages that I saw earlier to a bug in
      the BMC on our platform. It was sending NMIs w/o properly setting
      a register that indicated the source of NMI.
      
      So rather than _assuming_ any unhandled NMI came from the UV system
      maintenance console (SMC), add a check to verify that the SMC actually
      sent the NMI.
