It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent to "CPU power". The upcoming "power aware" scheduler work may create confusion with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too liberally.

For scalability and performance reasons, we want the tick broadcast IPIs to be handled as efficiently as possible. Fixed IPI messages are one of the most efficient mechanisms available - they are faster than the smp_call_function mechanism because the IPI handlers are fixed and hence they don't involve costly operations such as adding IPI handlers to the target CPU's function queue, acquiring locks for synchronization etc. Luckily we have an unused IPI message slot, so use that to implement tick broadcast IPIs efficiently.

The IPI handlers for both PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC and PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE map to a common implementation - generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(). So, we can consolidate them and save one of the IPI message slots, (which are precious on powerpc, since only 4 of those slots are available). So, implement the functionality of PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE using PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC itself and release its IPI message slot, so that it can be used for something else in the future, if desired.

Up until now we have only used cpu_to_chip_id() in the topology code, which is only used on SMP builds. However my recent commit a4da0d50 "Implement arch_get_random_long/int() for powernv" added a usage when SMP=n, breaking the build. Move cpu_to_chip_id() into prom.c so it is available for SMP=n builds. We would move the extern to prom.h, but that breaks the include in topology.h. Instead we leave it in smp.h, but move it out of the CONFIG_SMP #ifdef. We also need to include asm/smp.h in rng.c, because the linux version skips asm/smp.h on UP. What a mess.

cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() serializes CPU online/offline operations when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is set. This lock interface is no longer necessary with the following reason: - lock_device_hotplug() now protects CPU online/offline operations, including the probe & release interfaces enabled by ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE. The use of cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is redundant. - cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is only valid when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is defined, which is misleading and is only enabled on powerpc. This patch removes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() interface. As a result, ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE only enables / disables the cpu probe & release interface as intended. There is no functional change in this patch. Signed-off-by: NToshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Reviewed-by: NNathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

It seems following race is possible: cpu0 cpux smp_init->cpu_up->_cpu_up __cpu_up kick_cpu(1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- waiting online ... ... notify CPU_STARTING set cpux active set cpux online ------------------------------------------------------------------------- finish waiting online ... sched_init_smp init_sched_domains(cpu_active_mask) build_sched_domains set cpux sibling info ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Execution of cpu0 and cpux could be concurrent between two separator lines.

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. This removes all the powerpc uses of the __cpuinit macros. There are no __CPUINIT users in assembly files in powerpc.

When a Book3S HV KVM guest is running, we need the host to be in single-thread mode, that is, all of the cores (or at least all of the cores where the KVM guest could run) to be running only one active hardware thread. This is because of the hardware restriction in POWER processors that all of the hardware threads in the core must be in the same logical partition. Complying with this restriction is much easier if, from the host kernel's point of view, only one hardware thread is active. This adds two hooks in the SMP hotplug code to allow the KVM code to make sure that secondary threads (i.e. hardware threads other than thread 0) cannot come online while any KVM guest exists. The KVM code still has to check that any core where it runs a guest has the secondary threads offline, but having done that check it can now be sure that they will not come online while the guest is running.

We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote() is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing for it to do. In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule() is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(), this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux(). The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers. Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that ipi_message is not just accessed locally. This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations. Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases. These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on different cores of a POWER7 machine. The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly is due to Milton Miller.

Ben suggested we use SPRG3 which is userspace readable. SPRG3 can be modified by a KVM guest, so we save the SPRG3 value in the paca and restore it when transitioning from the guest to the host.

And it's not necessary to protect cpu_online_mask, because data->cpumask is pre-calculate and even if a cpu is brougt up when calling arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask(), it's harmless because validation test in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() will take care of it. 2) For cpu down issue, stop_machine() will guarantee that no concurrent smp_call_fuction() is processing.

ipi_call_lock/unlock() lock resp. unlock call_function.lock. This lock protects only the call_function data structure itself, but it's completely unrelated to cpu_online_mask. The mask to which the IPIs are sent is calculated before call_function.lock is taken in smp_call_function_many(), so the locking around set_cpu_online() is pointless and can be removed.

This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are implemented as subsystem interfaces now. After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel. Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

Since commit [e58aa3d2: genirq: Run irq handlers with interrupts disabled], We run all interrupt handlers with interrupts disabled and we even check and yell when an interrupt handler returns with interrupts enabled (see commit [b738a50a: genirq: Warn when handler enables interrupts]). So now this flag is a NOOP and can be removed.

This adds more generic support for doing CPU hotplug with a simple idle loop and no actual reset of the processors. The generic smp_generic_kick_cpu() does the hotplug bringup trick if the PACA shows that the CPU has already been started at boot and we provide an accessor for the CPU state.

This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors, specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor architecture other than the one that the hardware implements. This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code to include/linux/kvm.h. Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support (i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only do one or the other. This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present. Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious restriction. With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry to those exception handlers. We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage, hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist interrupts, so we have to handle those. In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space. We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it. We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers, so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct. The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition (partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction. This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now, since huge pages can't be paged or swapped. This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

On many platforms (including pSeries), smp_ops->message_pass is always smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass. This changes arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c so that if smp_ops->message_pass is NULL, it calls smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass directly. This means that a platform doesn't need to set both .message_pass and .cause_ipi, only one of them. It is a slight performance improvement in that it gets rid of an indirect function call at the expense of a predictable conditional branch.
