The Intel Denverton microserver uses a 25 MHz TSC crystal, so we can derive its exact [*] TSC frequency using CPUID and some arithmetic, eg.: TSC: 1800 MHz (25000000 Hz * 216 / 3 / 1000000) [*] 'exact' is only as good as the crystal, which should be +/- 20ppm Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/306899f94804aece6d8fa8b4223ede3b48dbb59c.1484287748.git.len.brown@intel.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

When unwinding a task, the end of the stack is always at the same offset right below the saved pt_regs, regardless of which syscall was used to enter the kernel. That convention allows the unwinder to verify that a stack is sane. However, newly forked tasks don't always follow that convention, as reported by the following unwinder warning seen by Dave Jones: WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at ffffc90001443f30 in kworker/u8:8:30468 has bad value (null) The warning was due to the following call chain: (ftrace handler) call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x5/0x140 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 The problem is that ret_from_fork() doesn't create a stack frame before calling other functions. Fix that by carefully using the frame pointer macros. In addition to conforming to the end of stack convention, this also makes related stack traces more sensible by making it clear to the user that ret_from_fork() was involved.

In the following commit: 0100301b ("sched/x86: Rewrite the switch_to() code") ... the layout of the 'inactive_task_frame' struct was designed to have a frame pointer header embedded in it, so that the unwinder could use the 'bp' and 'ret_addr' fields to report __schedule() on the stack (or ret_from_fork() for newly forked tasks which haven't actually run yet). Finish the job by changing get_frame_pointer() to return a pointer to inactive_task_frame's 'bp' field rather than 'bp' itself. This allows the unwinder to start one frame higher on the stack, so that it properly reports __schedule().

There are a handful of callers to save_stack_trace_tsk() and show_stack() which try to unwind the stack of a task other than current. In such cases, it's remotely possible that the task is running on one CPU while the unwinder is reading its stack from another CPU, causing the unwinder to see stack corruption. These cases seem to be mostly harmless. The unwinder has checks which prevent it from following bad pointers beyond the bounds of the stack. So it's not really a bug as long as the caller understands that unwinding another task will not always succeed. In such cases, it's possible that the unwinder may read a KASAN-poisoned region of the stack. Account for that by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() when reading the stack of another task. Use READ_ONCE() when reading the stack of the current task, since KASAN warnings can still be useful for finding bugs in that case.

In generic_load_microcode(), curr_mc_size is the size of the last allocated buffer and since we have this performance "optimization" there to vmalloc a new buffer only when the current one is bigger, curr_mc_size ends up becoming the size of the biggest buffer we've seen so far. However, we end up saving the microcode patch which matches our CPU and its size is not curr_mc_size but the respective mc_size during the iteration while we're staring at it. So save that mc_size into a separate variable and use it to store the previously found microcode buffer. Without this fix, we could get oops like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc9000e30f000 IP: __memcpy+0x12/0x20 ...

In commit 62906027 ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot. However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit" sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be, because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that just got updated atomically. On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed, not the value of an unrelated bit. On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use "xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state of the unrelated bit #7. So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too. This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids the costly stall at page unlock time. The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit. So this introduces the new architecture primitive clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte(); and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)" combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for example, but some other architectures may not even care. All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad. Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to 0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be. (The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed by Nick's earlier commit).

The cpu hotplug support of this perf driver is broken in several ways: 1) It adds a instance before setting up the state. 2) The state for the instance is different from the state of the callback. It's just a randomly chosen state. 3) The instance registration is not error checked so nobody noticed that the call can never succeed. 4) The state for the multi install callbacks is chosen randomly and overwrites existing state. This is now prevented by the core code so the call is guaranteed to fail. 5) The error exit path in the init function leaves the instance registered and then frees the memory which contains the enqueued hlist node. 6) The remove function is removing the state and not the instance. Fix it by: - Setting up the state before adding instances. Use a dynamically allocated state for it. - Installing instances after the state has been set up - Removing the instance in the error path before freeing memory - Removing the instance not the state in the driver remove callback While at is use raw_cpu_processor_id(), because cpu_processor_id() cannot be used in preemptible context, and set the driver data after successful registration of the pmu.

Revert the following commit: b6959a36 ("x86/unwind: Detect bad stack return address") ... because Andrey Konovalov reported an unwinder warning: WARNING: unrecognized kernel stack return address ffffffffa0000001 at ffff88006377fa18 in a.out:4467 The unwind was initiated from an interrupt which occurred while running in the generated code for a kprobe. The unwinder printed the warning because it expected regs->ip to point to a valid text address, but instead it pointed to the generated code. Eventually we may want come up with a way to identify generated kprobe code so the unwinder can know that it's a valid return address. Until then, just remove the warning.

Jiri reported the overlap scheduling exceeding its max stack. Looking at the constraint that triggered this, it turns out the overlap marker isn't needed. The comment with EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP states: "This is the case if the counter mask of such an event is not a subset of any other counter mask of a constraint with an equal or higher weight". Esp. that latter part is of interest here I think, our overlapping mask is 0x0e, that has 3 bits set and is the highest weight mask in on the PMU, therefore it will be placed last. Can we still create a scenario where we would need to rewind that? The scenario for AMD Fam15h is we're having masks like: 0x3F -- 111111 0x38 -- 111000 0x07 -- 000111 0x09 -- 001001 And we mark 0x09 as overlapping, because it is not a direct subset of 0x38 or 0x07 and has less weight than either of those. This means we'll first try and place the 0x09 event, then try and place 0x38/0x07 events. Now imagine we have: 3 * 0x07 + 0x09 and the initial pick for the 0x09 event is counter 0, then we'll fail to place all 0x07 events. So we'll pop back, try counter 4 for the 0x09 event, and then re-try all 0x07 events, which will now work. The masks on the PMU in question are: 0x01 - 0001 0x03 - 0011 0x0e - 1110 0x0c - 1100 But since all the masks that have overlap (0xe -> {0xc,0x3}) and (0x3 -> 0x1) are of heavier weight, it should all work out.

This patch solves a race condition between PEBS and the PMU handler. In case multiple PEBS events are sampled at the same time, it is possible to have GLOBAL_STATUS bit 62 set indicating PEBS buffer overflow and also seeing at most 3 PEBS counters having their bits set in the status register. This is a sign that there was at least one PEBS record pending at the time of the PMU interrupt. PEBS counters must only be processed via the drain_pebs() calls, and not via the regular sample processing loop coming after that the function, otherwise phony regular samples may be generated in the sampling buffer not marked with the EXACT tag. Another possibility is to have one PEBS event and at least one non-PEBS event whic hoverflows while PEBS has armed. In this case, bit 62 of GLOBAL_STATUS will not be set, yet the overflow status bit for the PEBS counter will be on Skylake. To avoid this problem, we systematically ignore the PEBS-enabled counters from the GLOBAL_STATUS mask and we always process PEBS events via drain_pebs(). The problem manifested itself by having non-exact samples when sampling only PEBS events, i.e., the PERF_SAMPLE_RECORD would not have the EXACT flag set. Note that this problem is only present on Skylake processor. This fix is harmless on older processors.

When we switch to virtual addresses and, especially after reserve_initrd()->relocate_initrd() have run, we have the updated initrd address in initrd_start. Use initrd_start then instead of the address which has been passed to us through boot params. (That still gets used when we're running the very early routines on the BSP).

This patch removes the users of the deprectated APIs: acpi_get_table_with_size() early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() The following APIs should be used instead of: acpi_get_table() acpi_put_table() The deprecated APIs are invented to be a replacement of acpi_get_table() during the early stage so that the early mapped pointer will not be stored in ACPICA core and thus the late stage acpi_get_table() won't return a wrong pointer. The mapping size is returned just because it is required by early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() to unmap the pointer during early stage. But as the mapping size equals to the acpi_table_header.length (see acpi_tb_init_table_descriptor() and acpi_tb_validate_table()), when such a convenient result is returned, driver code will start to use it instead of accessing acpi_table_header to obtain the length. Thus this patch cleans up the drivers by replacing returned table size with acpi_table_header.length, and should be a no-op.

Restructure the timer interrupt function to better cope with missed timer irqs. Optimize the calculation when the next interrupt should happen and skip irqs if they would happen too shortly after exit of the irq function. The update_process_times() call is done anyway at every timer irq, so we can safely drop the prof_counter and prof_multiplier variables from the per_cpu structure.
