      x86: Distinguish TLB shootdown interrupts from other functions call interrupts · fd0f5869
      Tomoki Sekiyama 提交于
      As TLB shootdown requests to other CPU cores are now using function call
      interrupts, TLB shootdowns entry in /proc/interrupts is always shown as 0.
      
      This behavior change was introduced by commit 52aec330 ("x86/tlb:
      replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR").
      
      This patch reverts TLB shootdowns entry in /proc/interrupts to count TLB
      shootdowns separately from the other function call interrupts.

      um: Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h · 9429ec96
      Geert Uytterhoeven 提交于
      The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to
      create definitions for UM_KERN_<LEVEL> that match the in-kernel
      KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions.
      
      As of commit 04d2c8c8 ("printk: convert
      the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_<LEVEL> is no
      longer expanded to the literal '"<LEVEL>"', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e.
      it contains two parts.
      
      However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in
      arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't
      support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all
      UM_KERN_<LEVEL> definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual
      definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in
      include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get
      
          #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */
      
      instead of
      
          #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */
      
      This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages:
      
          Calibrating delay loop... 4640.76 BogoMIPS (lpj=23203840)
          pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301
          Mount-cache hash table entries: 256
          ^AChecking that host ptys support output SIGIO...Yes
          ^AChecking that host ptys support SIGIO on close...No, enabling workaround
          ^AUsing 2.6 host AIO
          NET: Registered protocol family 16
          bio: create slab <bio-0> at 0
          Switching to clocksource itimer
      
      To fix this:
        - Move the mapping from UM_KERN_<LEVEL> to KERN_<LEVEL> from
          arch/um/include/shared/common-offsets.h to
          arch/um/include/shared/user.h, which is preincluded for all userspace
          parts,
        - Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to
          obtain the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. This doesn't
          violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h
          is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals.
        - Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

      The ACPI spec doesn't provide for a way for the bios to pass down
      recommended thresholds to the OS on a _per-bank_ basis. This patch adds
      a new boot option, which if passed, tells Linux to use CMCI thresholds
      set by the bios.
      
      As fail-safe, we initialize threshold to 1 if some banks have not been
      initialized by the bios and warn the user.

      x86: Exit RCU extended QS on notify resume · edf55fda
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      do_notify_resume() may be called on irq or exception
      exit. But at that time the exception has already called
      rcu_user_enter() and the irq has already called rcu_irq_exit().
      
      Since it can use RCU read side critical section, we must call
      rcu_user_exit() before doing anything there. Then we must call
      back rcu_user_enter() after this function because we know we are
      going to userspace from there.
      
      This complete support for userspace RCU extended quiescent state
      in x86-64.

      cputime: Make finegrained irqtime accounting generally available · fdf9c356
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      There is no known reason for this option to be unavailable on other
      archs than x86. They just need to call enable_sched_clock_irqtime()
      if they have a sufficiently finegrained clock to make it working.
      
      Move it to the general option and let the user choose between
      it and pure tick based or virtual cputime accounting.
      
      Note that virtual cputime accounting already performs a finegrained
      irqtime accounting. CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING is a kind of middle ground
      between tick and virtual based accounting. So CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING
      and CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING are mutually exclusive choices.

      xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests. · 8d54db79
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
      and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
      NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
      run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
      need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
      NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
      patches are not yet present.
      
      In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
      also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:
      
      "we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
      by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).
      
      This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
      will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
      the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.
      
      This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
      this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)
      
      We have this dump then:

      Use get_online_cpus to avoid races involving CPU hotplug · 429227bb
      Silas Boyd-Wickizer 提交于
      If arch/x86/kernel/cpuid.c is a module, a CPU might offline or online
      between the for_each_online_cpu() loop and the call to
      register_hotcpu_notifier in cpuid_init or the call to
      unregister_hotcpu_notifier in cpuid_exit.  The potential races can
      lead to leaks/duplicates, attempts to destroy non-existant devices, or
      random pointer dereferences.
      
      For example, in cpuid_exit if:
      
              for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
                      cpuid_device_destroy(cpu);
              class_destroy(cpuid_class);
              __unregister_chrdev(CPUID_MAJOR, 0, NR_CPUS, "cpu/cpuid");
              <----- CPU onlines
              unregister_hotcpu_notifier(&cpuid_class_cpu_notifier);
      
      the hotcpu notifier will attempt to create a device for the
      cpuid_class, which the module already destroyed.
      
      This fix surrounds for_each_online_cpu and register_hotcpu_notifier or
      unregister_hotcpu_notifier with get_online_cpus+put_online_cpus.
      
      Tested on a VM.

      Use get_online_cpus to avoid races involving CPU hotplug · a2db672a
      Silas Boyd-Wickizer 提交于
      If arch/x86/kernel/msr.c is a module, a CPU might offline or online
      between the for_each_online_cpu(i) loop and the call to
      register_hotcpu_notifier in msr_init or the call to
      unregister_hotcpu_notifier in msr_exit. The potential races can lead
      to leaks/duplicates, attempts to destroy non-existant devices, or

              <----- CPU offlines
              register_hotcpu_notifier(&msr_class_cpu_notifier);
      
      and the CPU never onlines before msr_exit, then the module will never
      call msr_device_destroy for the associated CPU.

      x86, kvm: fix kvm's usage of kernel_fpu_begin/end() · b1a74bf8
      Suresh Siddha 提交于
      Preemption is disabled between kernel_fpu_begin/end() and as such
      it is not a good idea to use these routines in kvm_load/put_guest_fpu()
      which can be very far apart.
      
      kvm_load/put_guest_fpu() routines are already called with
      preemption disabled and KVM already uses the preempt notifier to save
      the guest fpu state using kvm_put_guest_fpu().
      
      So introduce __kernel_fpu_begin/end() routines which don't touch
      preemption and use them instead of kernel_fpu_begin/end()
      for KVM's use model of saving/restoring guest FPU state.
      
      Also with this change (and with eagerFPU model), fix the host cr0.TS vm-exit
      state in the case of VMX. For eagerFPU case, host cr0.TS is always clear.
      So no need to worry about it. For the traditional lazyFPU restore case,
      change the cr0.TS bit for the host state during vm-exit to be always clear
      and cr0.TS bit is set in the __vmx_load_host_state() when the FPU
      (guest FPU or the host task's FPU) state is not active. This ensures
      that the host/guest FPU state is properly saved, restored
      during context-switch and with interrupts (using irq_fpu_usable()) not
      stomping on the active FPU state.

      xen/boot: Disable BIOS SMP MP table search. · bd49940a
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      As the initial domain we are able to search/map certain regions
      of memory to harvest configuration data. For all low-level we
      use ACPI tables - for interrupts we use exclusively ACPI _PRT
      (so DSDT) and MADT for INT_SRC_OVR.
      
      The SMP MP table is not used at all. As a matter of fact we do
      not even support machines that only have SMP MP but no ACPI tables.
      
      Lets follow how Moorestown does it and just disable searching
      for BIOS SMP tables.
      
      This also fixes an issue on HP Proliant BL680c G5 and DL380 G6:

      which is that ioremap would end up mapping 0xff using _PAGE_IOMAP
      (which is what early_ioremap sticks as a flag) - which meant
      we would get MFN 0xFF (pte ff461, which is OK), and then it would
      also map 0x100 (b/c ioremap tries to get page aligned request, and
      it was trying to map 0xf4fa0 + PAGE_SIZE - so it mapped the next page)
      as _PAGE_IOMAP. Since 0x100 is actually a RAM page, and the _PAGE_IOMAP
      bypasses the P2M lookup we would happily set the PTE to 1000461.
      Xen would deny the request since we do not have access to the
      Machine Frame Number (MFN) of 0x100. The P2M[0x100] is for example
      0x80140.
