On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization: Enabling non-boot CPUs ... smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1 process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1 CPU1 is up ... ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3 Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming. The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during IBS setup. This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset reinitialization. Marking it as stable to let distros pick up this fix.

So mce_start_timer() has a 'cpu' argument which is supposed to mean to start a timer on that cpu. However, the code currently starts a timer on the *current* cpu the function runs on and causes the sanity-check in mce_timer_fn to fire: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c:1286 mce_timer_fn because it is running on the wrong cpu. This was triggered by Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> by offlining all the cpus in succession. Then, we were fiddling with the CMCI storm settings when starting the timer whereas there's no need for that - if there's storm happening on this newly restarted cpu, we're going to be in normal CMCI mode initially and then when the CMCI interrupt starts firing, we're going to go to the polling mode with the timer real soon.

Linux 3.10 changed the timing of how thread_info->flags is touched: x86: Use generic idle loop (7d1a9417) This caused Intel NHM-EX and WSM-EX servers to experience a large number of immediate MONITOR/MWAIT break wakeups, which caused cpuidle to demote from deep C-states to shallow C-states, which caused these platforms to experience a significant increase in idle power. Note that this issue was already present before the commit above, however, it wasn't seen often enough to be noticed in power measurements. Here we extend an errata workaround from the Core2 EX "Dunnington" to extend to NHM-EX and WSM-EX, to prevent these immediate returns from MWAIT, reducing idle power on these platforms. While only acpi_idle ran on Dunnington, intel_idle may also run on these two newer systems. As of today, there are no other models that are known to need this tweak.

The EVENT_CONSTRAINT_END() macro defines the end marker as a constraint with a weight of zero. This was all fine until we blacklisted the corrupting memory events on Intel IvyBridge. These events are blacklisted by using a counter bitmask of zero. Thus, they also get a constraint weight of zero. The iteration macro: for_each_constraint tests the weight==0. Therefore, it was stopping at the first blacklisted event, i.e., 0xd0. The corrupting events were therefore considered as unconstrained and were scheduled on any of the generic counters. This patch fixes the end marker to have a weight of -1. With this, the blacklisted events get an empty constraint and cannot be scheduled which is what we want for now.

The RAPL PMU counters do not interrupt on overflow. Therefore, the kernel needs to poll the counters to avoid missing an overflow. This patch adds the hrtimer code to do this. The timer interval is calculated at boot time based on the power unit used by the HW. There is one hrtimer per-cpu to handle the case of multiple simultaneous use across cores on the same package + hotplug CPU.

This patch adds a new uncore PMU to expose the Intel RAPL energy consumption counters. Up to 3 counters, each counting a particular RAPL event are exposed. The RAPL counters are available on Intel SandyBridge, IvyBridge, Haswell. The server skus add a 3rd counter. The following events are available and exposed in sysfs: - power/energy-cores: power consumption of all cores on socket - power/energy-pkg: power consumption of all cores + LLc cache - power/energy-dram: power consumption of DRAM (servers only) For each event both the unit (Joules) and scale (2^-32 J) is exposed in sysfs for use by perf stat and other tools. The files are: /sys/devices/power/events/energy-*.unit /sys/devices/power/events/energy-*.scale The RAPL PMU is uncore by nature and is implemented such that it only works in system-wide mode. Measuring only one CPU per socket is sufficient. The /sys/devices/power/cpumask file can be used by tools to figure out which CPUs to monitor by default. For instance, on a 2-socket system, 2 CPUs (one on each socket) will be shown. All the counters measure in the same unit (exposed via sysfs). The perf_events API exposes all RAPL counters as 64-bit integers counting in unit of 1/2^32 Joules (about 0.23 nJ). User level tools must convert the counts by multiplying them by 2^-32 to obtain Joules. The reason for this is that the kernel avoids doing floating point math whenever possible because it is expensive (user floating-point state must be saved). The method used avoids kernel floating-point usage. There is no loss of precision. Thanks to PeterZ for suggesting this approach. To convert the raw count in Watt: W = C * 2.3 / (1e10 * time) or ldexp(C, -32). RAPL PMU is a new standalone PMU which registers with the perf_event core subsystem. The PMU type (attr->type) is dynamically allocated and is available from /sys/device/power/type. Sampling is not supported by the RAPL PMU. There is no privilege level filtering either.

由 HATAYAMA Daisuke 提交于
Currently show_cpuinfo_core() displays cpu core information only if the number of threads per a whole cores is 2 or larger. However, this condition doesn't care about the number of sockets. For example, this condition doesn't hold on systems with two logical cpus consisting of two sockets and a single core on each socket - yet the topology information would be interesting to see in that case as well. I don't know whether or not there are processors in real world by which such configurations are possible, but at least on vitual machine environments, such configuration can occur, typically when no explicit SMP information is provided in advance. For example, on qemu/KVM, SMP information is specified via -smp command-line option, more specifically, its syntax is: -smp n[,cores=cores][,threads=threads][,sockets=sockets][,maxcpus=maxcpus] If this is not specified, qemu tells configuration with n-sockets, 1-core and 1-thread to the guest machine, on which guest, MP information is not displayed in /proc/cpuinfo. I saw this situation on VMWare guest environment, too. To fix this issue, this patch simply removes the condition because this information is useful even if there's only 1 thread.

OK, so what I'm actually seeing on my WSM is that sched/clock.c is 'broken' for the purpose we're using it for. What triggered it is that my WSM-EP is broken :-( [ 0.001000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.002000] tsc: Detected 2533.715 MHz processor [ 0.500180] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#6]: [ 0.505197] Measured 3 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock. [ 0.004000] tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed For some reason it consistently detects TSC skew, even though NHM+ should have a single clock domain for 'reasonable' systems. This marks sched_clock_stable=0, which means that we do fancy stuff to try and get a 'sane' clock. Part of this fancy stuff relies on the tick, clearly that's gone when NOHZ=y. So for idle cpus time gets stuck, until it either wakes up or gets kicked by another cpu. While this is perfectly fine for the scheduler -- it only cares about actually running stuff, and when we're running stuff we're obviously not idle. This does somewhat break down for perf which can trigger events just fine on an otherwise idle cpu. So I've got NMIs get get 'measured' as taking ~1ms, which actually don't last nearly that long: <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311970: rcu_nmi_enter <-do_nmi ... <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311997: perf_sample_event_took: HERE!!! : 1040990 So ftrace (which uses sched_clock(), not the fancy bits) only sees ~27us, but we measure ~1ms !! Now since all this measurement stuff lives in x86 code, we can actually fix it.

struct cpu_dev's c_models is only ever set inside CONFIG_X86_32 conditionals (or code that's being built for 32-bit only), so there's no use of reserving the (empty) space for the model names in a 64-bit kernel. Similarly, c_size_cache is only used in the #else of a CONFIG_X86_64 conditional, so reserving space for (and in one case even initializing) that field is pointless for 64-bit kernels too. While moving both fields to the end of the structure, I also noticed that: - the c_models array size was one too small, potentially causing table_lookup_model() to return garbage on Intel CPUs (intel.c's instance was lacking the sentinel with family being zero), so the patch bumps that by one, - c_models' vendor sub-field was unused (and anyway redundant with the base structure's c_x86_vendor field), so the patch deletes it. Also rename the legacy fields so that their legacy nature stands out and comment their declarations.

There's been reports of high NMI handler overhead, highlighted by such kernel messages: [ 3697.380195] perf samples too long (10009 > 10000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 13000 [ 3697.389509] INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 9.331 msecs Don Zickus analyzed the source of the overhead and reported: > While there are a few places that are causing latencies, for now I focused on > the longest one first.

Since we already limit the max basic block size, we can easily pre-allocate a piece of memory to copy the entire thing into in one go. Don reported this test result: > Your patch made a huge difference in improvement. The > copy_from_user_nmi() no longer hits the million of cycles. I still > have a batch of 100,000-300,000 cycles.

Adds potential sources of randomness: RDRAND, RDTSC, or the i8254. This moves the pre-alternatives inline rdrand function into the header so both pieces of code can use it. Availability of RDRAND is then controlled by CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, if someone wants to disable it even for kASLR.

Hyper-V supports a mechanism for retrieving the local APIC frequency. Use this and bypass the calibration code in the kernel . This would allow us to boot the Linux kernel as a "modern VM" on Hyper-V where many of the legacy devices (such as PIT) are not emulated. I would like to thank Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de>, Jan Beulich <JBeulich@suse.com> and H. Peter Anvin <h.peter.anvin@intel.com> for their help in this effort.

Currently the cap_user_time_zero capability has different tests than cap_user_time; even though they expose the exact same data.

Convert x86 to use a per-cpu preemption count. The reason for doing so is that accessing per-cpu variables is a lot cheaper than accessing thread_info variables. We still need to save/restore the actual preemption count due to PREEMPT_ACTIVE so we place the per-cpu __preempt_count variable in the same cache-line as the other hot __switch_to() variables such as current_task. NOTE: this save/restore is required even for !PREEMPT kernels as cond_resched() also relies on preempt_count's PREEMPT_ACTIVE to ignore task_struct::state. Also rename thread_info::preempt_count to ensure nobody is 'accidentally' still poking at it.
