The variable last_host_tsc was removed from upstream code. I am adding
it back for two reasons. First, it is unnecessary to use guest TSC
computation to conclude information about the host TSC. The guest may
set the TSC backwards (this case handled by the previous patch), but
the computation of guest TSC (and fetching an MSR) is significanlty more
work and complexity than simply reading the hardware counter. In addition,
we don't actually need the guest TSC for any part of the computation,
by always recomputing the offset, we can eliminate the need to deal with
the current offset and any scaling factors that may apply.
The second reason is that later on, we are going to be using the host
TSC value to restore TSC offsets after a host S4 suspend, so we need to
be reading the host values, not the guest values here.

The variable last_guest_tsc was being used as an ad-hoc indicator
that guest TSC has been initialized and recorded correctly. However,
it may not have been, it could be that guest TSC has been set to some
large value, the back to a small value (by, say, a software reboot).
This defeats the logic and causes KVM to falsely assume that the
guest TSC has gone backwards, marking the host TSC unstable, which
is undesirable behavior.
In addition, rather than try to compute an offset adjustment for the
TSC on unstable platforms, just recompute the whole offset. This
allows us to get rid of one callsite for adjust_tsc_offset, which
is problematic because the units it takes are in guest units, but
here, the computation was originally being done in host units.
Doing this, and also recording last_guest_tsc when the TSC is written
allow us to remove the tricky logic which depended on last_guest_tsc
being zero to indicate a reset of uninitialized value.
Instead, we now have the guarantee that the guest TSC offset is
always at least something which will get us last_guest_tsc.

Currently, when the TSC is written by the guest, the variable
ns is updated to force the current write to appear to have taken
place at the time of the first write in this sync phase. This
leaves a cliff at the end of the match window where updates will
fall of the end. There are two scenarios where this can be a
problem in practe - first, on a system with a large number of
VCPUs, the sync period may last for an extended period of time.
The second way this can happen is if the VM reboots very rapidly
and we catch a VCPU TSC synchronization just around the edge.
We may be unaware of the reboot, and thus the first VCPU might
synchronize with an old set of the timer (at, say 0.97 seconds
ago, when first powered on). The second VCPU can come in 0.04
seconds later to try to synchronize, but it misses the window
because it is just over the threshold.
Instead, stop doing this artificial setback of the ns variable
and just update it with every write of the TSC.
It may be observed that doing so causes values computed by
compute_guest_tsc to diverge slightly across CPUs - note that
the last_tsc_ns and last_tsc_write variable are used here, and
now they last_tsc_ns will be different for each VCPU, reflecting
the actual time of the update.
However, compute_guest_tsc is used only for guests which already
have TSC stability issues, and further, note that the previous
patch has caused last_tsc_write to be incremented by the difference
in nanoseconds, converted back into guest cycles. As such, only
boundary rounding errors should be visible, which given the
resolution in nanoseconds, is going to only be a few cycles and
only visible in cross-CPU consistency tests. The problem can be
fixed by adding a new set of variables to track the start offset
and start write value for the current sync cycle.

There are a few improvements that can be made to the TSC offset
matching code. First, we don't need to call the 128-bit multiply
(especially on a constant number), the code works much nicer to
do computation in nanosecond units.
Second, the way everything is setup with software TSC rate scaling,
we currently have per-cpu rates. Obviously this isn't too desirable
to use in practice, but if for some reason we do change the rate of
all VCPUs at runtime, then reset the TSCs, we will only want to
match offsets for VCPUs running at the same rate.
Finally, for the case where we have an unstable host TSC, but
rate scaling is being done in hardware, we should call the platform
code to compute the TSC offset, so the math is reorganized to recompute
the base instead, then transform the base into an offset using the
existing API.

Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz'
to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider
each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate. Instead, there is new
logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether
it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by
common code. This means we can simply query the virtual rate at
any point, which is needed for software rate scaling.
There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor
differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally
provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed. Instead,
we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is
the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling
will be used. The default is 250ppm, which is the half the
threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation.
In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can
kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than
hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available
yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software
implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either. And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.
The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d271b: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.

by the first probe, and executes it when the probe is hit.
Even worse, the first probe and the second probe are removed

Current probed-instruction recovery expects that only breakpoint
instruction modifies instruction. However, since kprobes jump
optimization can replace original instructions with a jump,
that expectation is not enough. And it may cause instruction
decoding failure on the function where an optimized probe
already exists.
This bug can reproduce easily as below:
1) find a target function address (any kprobe-able function is OK)
$ grep __secure_computing /proc/kallsyms
ffffffff810c19d0 T __secure_computing
2) decode the function
$ objdump -d vmlinux --start-address=0xffffffff810c19d0 --stop-address=0xffffffff810c19eb
vmlinux: file format elf64-x86-64
Disassembly of section .text:

ffffffff810c19e9: 74 05 je ffffffff810c19f0 <__secure_computing+0x20>
3) put a kprobe-event at an optimize-able place, where no
call/jump places within the 5 bytes.
$ su -
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
4) enable it and check it is optimized.
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
5) put another kprobe on an instruction after previous probe in
the same function.
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[ 1666.500016] Probing address(0xffffffff810c19e2) is not an instruction boundary.
6) however, if the kprobes optimization is disabled, it works.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
(no error)
This is because kprobes doesn't recover the instruction
which is overwritten with a relative jump by another kprobe
when finding instruction boundary.
It only recovers the breakpoint instruction.
This patch fixes kprobes to recover such instructions.
With this fix:
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
ffffffff810c1ab2 k __secure_computing+0x12 [DISABLED]

by jump.

clock_t is used mainly to give the number of jiffies a certain process
has burned. It is entirely feasible for a long-running process to
consume more than 2^32 jiffies especially in a multiprocess system.
As such, switch to a 64-bit clock_t for x32, just as we already
switched to a 64-bit time_t.
clock_t is only used in a handful of places, and as such it is really
not a very significant change. The one that has the biggest impact is
in struct siginfo, but since the *size* of struct siginfo doesn't
change (it is padded to the hilt) it is fairly easy to make this a
localized change.
This also gets rid of sys_x32_times, however since this is a pretty
late change don't compactify the system call numbers; we can reuse
system call slot 521 next time we need an x32 system call.

With branch stack sampling, it is possible to filter by priv levels.
In system-wide mode, that means it is possible to capture only user
level branches. The builtin SW LBR filter needs to disassemble code
based on LBR captured addresses. For that, it needs to know the task
the addresses are associated with. Because of context switches, the
content of the branch stack buffer may contain addresses from
different tasks.
We need a callback on context switch to either flush the branch stack
or save it. This patch adds a new callback in struct pmu which is called
during context switches. The callback is called only when necessary.
That is when a system-wide context has, at least, one event which
uses PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK. The callback is never called for
per-thread context.
In this version, the Intel x86 code simply flushes (resets) the LBR
on context switches (fills it with zeroes). Those zeroed branches are
then filtered out by the SW filter.

This patch adds an internal sofware filter to complement
the (optional) LBR hardware filter.
The software filter is necessary:
- as a substitute when there is no HW LBR filter (e.g., Atom, Core)
- to complement HW LBR filter in case of errata (e.g., Nehalem/Westmere)
- to provide finer grain filtering (e.g., all processors)
Sometimes the LBR HW filter cannot distinguish between two types
of branches. For instance, to capture syscall as CALLS, it is necessary
to enable the LBR_FAR filter which will also capture JMP instructions.
Thus, a second pass is necessary to filter those out, this is what the
SW filter can do.
The SW filter is built on top of the internal x86 disassembler. It
is a best effort filter especially for user level code. It is subject
to the availability of the text page of the program.
The SW filter is enabled on all Intel processors. It is bypassed
when the user is capturing all branches at all priv levels.

If precise sampling is enabled on Intel x86 then perf_event uses PEBS.
To correct for the off-by-one error of PEBS, perf_event uses LBR when

On Intel x86 PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK is implemented using LBR,
therefore both features must be coordinated as they may not

For PEBS, LBR needs to capture all branches at the priv level of

The Intel LBR on some recent processor is capable
of filtering branches by type. The filter is configurable
via the LBR_SELECT MSR register.
There are limitation on how this register can be used.
On Nehalem/Westmere, the LBR_SELECT is shared by the two HT threads
when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off.
On SandyBridge, the LBR_SELECT register is private to each thread
when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off.
The kernel must manage the sharing of LBR_SELECT. It allows
multiple users on the same logical CPU to use LBR_SELECT as
long as they program it with the same value. Across sibling
CPUs (HT threads), the same restriction applies on NHM/WSM.
This patch implements this sharing logic by leveraging the
mechanism put in place for managing the offcore_response
shared MSR.
We modify __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to cause
x86_get_event_constraint() to be called because LBR may
be associated with events that may be counter constrained.

This patch adds the ability to sample taken branches to the
perf_event interface.
The ability to capture taken branches is very useful for all
sorts of analysis. For instance, basic block profiling, call
counts, statistical call graph.
This new capability requires hardware assist and as such may
not be available on all HW platforms. On Intel x86 it is
implemented on top of the Last Branch Record (LBR) facility.
To enable taken branches sampling, the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK
bit must be set in attr->sample_type.
Sampled taken branches may be filtered by type and/or priv
levels.
The patch adds a new field, called branch_sample_type, to the
perf_event_attr structure. It contains a bitmask of filters
to apply to the sampled taken branches.
Filters may be implemented in HW. If the HW filter does not exist
or is not good enough, some arch may also implement a SW filter.
The following generic filters are currently defined:
- PERF_SAMPLE_USER
only branches whose targets are at the user level
- PERF_SAMPLE_KERNEL
only branches whose targets are at the kernel level
- PERF_SAMPLE_HV
only branches whose targets are at the hypervisor level
- PERF_SAMPLE_ANY
any type of branches (subject to priv levels filters)
- PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_CALL
any call branches (may incl. syscall on some arch)
- PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_RET
any return branches (may incl. syscall returns on some arch)
- PERF_SAMPLE_IND_CALL
indirect call branches
Obviously filter may be combined. The priv level bits are optional.
If not provided, the priv level of the associated event are used. It
is possible to collect branches at a priv level different from the
associated event. Use of kernel, hv priv levels is subject to permissions
and availability (hv).
The number of taken branch records present in each sample may vary based
on HW, the type of sampled branches, the executed code. Therefore
each sample contains the number of taken branches it contains.

When kvm guest uses kvmclock, it may hang on vcpu hot-plug.
This is caused by an overflow in pvclock_get_nsec_offset,
u64 delta = tsc - shadow->tsc_timestamp;
which in turn is caused by an undefined values from percpu
hv_clock that hasn't been initialized yet.
Uninitialized clock on being booted cpu is accessed from
start_secondary
-> smp_callin
-> smp_store_cpu_info
-> identify_secondary_cpu
-> mtrr_ap_init
-> mtrr_restore
-> stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu
-> queue_stop_cpus_work
...
-> sched_clock
-> kvm_clock_read
which is well before x86_cpuinit.setup_percpu_clockev call in
start_secondary, where percpu clock is initialized.
This patch introduces a hook that allows to setup/initialize
per_cpu clock early and avoid overflow due to reading
- undefined values
- old values if cpu was offlined and then onlined again
Another possible early user of this clock source is ftrace that
accesses it to get timestamps for ring buffer entries. So if
mtrr_ap_init is moved from identify_secondary_cpu to past
x86_cpuinit.setup_percpu_clockev in start_secondary, ftrace
may cause the same overflow/hang on cpu hot-plug anyway.

On some cpus the overhead for virtualization instructions is in the same
range as a system call. Having to call multiple ioctls to get set registers
will make certain userspace handled exits more expensive than necessary.
Lets provide a section in kvm_run that works as a shared save area
for guest registers.
We also provide two 64bit flags fields (architecture specific), that will
specify
1. which parts of these fields are valid.
2. which registers were modified by userspace
Each bit for these flag fields will define a group of registers (like
general purpose) or a single register.

In some cases guests should not provide workarounds for errata even when the
physical processor is affected. For example, because of erratum 400 on family
10h processors a Linux guest will read an MSR (resulting in VMEXIT) before
going to idle in order to avoid getting stuck in a non-C0 state. This is not
necessary: HLT and IO instructions are intercepted and therefore there is no
reason for erratum 400 workaround in the guest.
This patch allows us to present a guest with certain errata as fixed,
regardless of the state of actual hardware.

Currently cache alignment among nodes in the kernel is still 128
bytes on x86 NUMA machines - we got that X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT
default from old P4 processors.
But now most modern x86 CPUs use the same size: 64 bytes from L1 to
last level L3. so let's remove the incorrect setting, and directly
use the L1 cache size to do SMP cache line alignment.
This patch saves some memory space on kernel data, and it also
improves the cache locality of kernel data.
The System.map is quite different with/without this change:

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.
This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.
The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.

pci=use_crs to the kernel command line, no more trouble.
Ok, we can add a quirk. dmidecode output reveals that this is an MSI
MS-7253, for which we already have a quirk, but the short-sighted
author tied the quirk to a single BIOS version, making it not kick in
on Carlos's machine with BIOS V1.2. If a later BIOS update makes it
no longer necessary to look at the _CRS info it will still be
harmless, so let's stop trying to guess which versions have and don't

It would appear that we never actually generated a correct CRC when

Since we already have a debugreg.h header file, move the
assoc. get/set functions to it. In addition to it being the
logical home for them, it has a secondary advantage. The
functions that are moved use BUG(). So we really need to
have linux/bug.h in scope. But asm/processor.h is used about
600 times, vs. only about 15 for debugreg.h -- so adding bug.h
to the latter reduces the amount of time we'll be processing
it during a compile.

In the spirit of commit 29cf7a30f8 ("x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS
info on ASUS M2V-MX SE"), this DMI quirk turns on "pci_use_crs" by
default on a board that needs it.
This fixes boot failures and oopses introduced in 3e3da00c01
("x86/pci: AMD one chain system to use pci read out res"). The quirk
is quite targetted (to a specific board and BIOS version) for two
reasons:
(1) to emphasize that this method of tackling the problem one quirk
at a time is a little insane
(2) to give BIOS vendors an opportunity to use simpler tables and
allow us to return to generic behavior (whatever that happens to
be) with a later BIOS update
In other words, I am not at all happy with having quirks like this.
But it is even worse for the kernel not to work out of the box on
these machines, so...

We may need to convert the endianness of the data we read from/write
to 'buf', so let's use {get,put}_unaligned_le32() to do that. Failure
to do so can result in accessing invalid memory, leading to a
segfault. Stephen Rothwell noticed this bug while cross-building an
x86_64 allmodconfig kernel on PowerPC.
We need to read from and write to 'buf' a byte at a time otherwise
it's possible we'll perform an unaligned access, which can lead to bus
errors when cross-building an x86 kernel on risc architectures.

The saving and restoring of %rdx wasn't annotated at all, and the
jumping over sections where state gets partly restored wasn't handled
either.
Further, by folding the pushing of the previous frame in repeat_nmi
into that which so far was immediately preceding restart_nmi (after
moving the restore of %rdx ahead of that, since it doesn't get used
anymore when pushing prior frames), annotations of the replicated
frame creations can be made consistent too.
v2: Fully fold repeat_nmi into the normal code flow (adding a single
redundant instruction to the "normal" code path), thus retaining
the special protection of all instructions between repeat_nmi and
end_repeat_nmi.

all the cleanups I talked about and turns jump labels into a
more intuitive to use facility. It should also address the
various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels.
Typical usage scenarios:
#include <linux/static_key.h>
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE;
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
Or:
if (static_key_true(&key))
do likely code
else
do unlikely code
The static key is modified via:
static_key_slow_inc(&key);
...
static_key_slow_dec(&key);
The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an
expensive operation.
I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note
that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename
blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label
patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to
decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit.
On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to
likely()/unlikely() branches.

Traditionally the kernel has refused to setup EFI at all if there's been
a mismatch in 32/64-bit mode between EFI and the kernel.
On some platforms that boot natively through EFI (Chrome OS being one),
we still need to get at least some of the static data such as memory
configuration out of EFI. Runtime services aren't as critical, and
it's a significant amount of work to implement switching between the
operating modes to call between kernel and firmware for thise cases. So
I'm ignoring it for now.
v5:
* Fixed some printk strings based on feedback
* Renamed 32/64-bit specific types to not have _ prefix
* Fixed bug in printout of efi runtime disablement
v4:
* Some of the earlier cleanup was accidentally reverted by this patch, fixed.
* Reworded some messages to not have to line wrap printk strings
v3:
* Reorganized to a series of patches to make it easier to review, and
do some of the cleanups I had left out before.
v2:
* Added graceful error handling for 32-bit kernel that gets passed
EFI data above 4GB.
* Removed some warnings that were missed in first version.

It's not perfect, but way better than before. Mark efi_enabled as false in
case of error and at least stop dereferencing pointers that are known to
be invalid.
The only significant missing piece is the lack of undoing the
memblock_reserve of the memory that efi marks as in use. On the other
hand, it's not a large amount of memory, and leaving it unavailable for
system use should be the safer choice anyway.

For each logical CPU that is coming online, we spend 20msec for
checking the TSC synchronization. And as this is done
sequentially for each logical CPU boot, this time gets added up
depending on the number of logical CPU's supported by the
platform.
Minimize this by using the socket topology information.
If the target CPU coming online doesn't have any of its
core-siblings online, a timeout of 20msec will be used for the
TSC-warp measurement loop. Otherwise a smaller timeout of 2msec
will be used, as we have some information about this socket
already (and this information grows as we have more and more
logical-siblings in that socket).
Ideally we should be able to skip the TSC sync check on the
other core-siblings, if the first logical CPU in a socket passed
the sync test. But as the TSC is per-logical CPU and can
potentially be modified wrongly by the bios before the OS boot,
TSC sync test for smaller duration should be able to catch such
errors. Also this will catch the condition where all the cores
in the socket doesn't get reset at the same time.
For example, with this modification, time spent in TSC sync
checks on a 4 socket 10-core with HT system gets reduced from
1580msec to 212msec.

While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we
actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really
pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to
others.
So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain
in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by
core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.
The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to
modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by
task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.
The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since
arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module. But that
kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the
internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained. Even if it
isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.

Instead of exporting the very low-level internals of the FPU state
save/restore code (ie things like 'fpu_owner_task'), we should export
the higher-level interfaces.
Inlining these things is pointless anyway: sure, sometimes the end
result is small, but while 'stts()' can result in just three x86
instructions, those are not cheap instructions (writing %cr0 is a
serializing instruction and a very slow one at that).
So the overhead of a function call is not noticeable, and we really
don't want random modules mucking about with our internal state save
logic anyway.
So this unexports 'fpu_owner_task', and instead uninlines and exports
the actual functions that modules can use: fpu_kernel_begin/end() and
unlazy_fpu().

Linus noticed that the cmp used to check if the code segment is
__KERNEL_CS or not did not specify a size. Perhaps it does not matter
as H. Peter Anvin noted that user space can not set the bottom two
bits of the %cs register. But it's best not to let the assembly choose
and change things between different versions of gas, but instead just
pick the size.
Four bytes are used to compare the saved code segment against
__KERNEL_CS. Perhaps this might mess up Xen, but we can fix that when
the time comes.
Also I noticed that there was another non-specified cmp that checks
the special stack variable if it is 1 or 0. This too probably doesn't
matter what cmp is used, but this patch uses cmpl just to make it non
ambiguous.

x32 shares most system calls with x86-64, but unfortunately some
subsystem (the input subsystem is the chief offender) which require

sizeof(long) in userspace!
We could solve this by having two completely disjoint system call
tables; requiring that each system call be duplicated. This patch
takes a different approach: we add a flag to the system call number;
this flag doesn't affect the system call dispatch but requests compat
treatment from affected subsystems for the duration of the system call.

This makes us recognize when we try to restore FPU state that matches
what we already have in the FPU on this CPU, and avoids the restore
entirely if so.
To do this, we add two new data fields:
- a percpu 'fpu_owner_task' variable that gets written any time we
update the "has_fpu" field, and thus acts as a kind of back-pointer
to the task that owns the CPU. The exception is when we save the FPU
state as part of a context switch - if the save can keep the FPU
state around, we leave the 'fpu_owner_task' variable pointing at the
task whose FP state still remains on the CPU.
- a per-thread 'last_cpu' field, that indicates which CPU that thread
used its FPU on last. We update this on every context switch
(writing an invalid CPU number if the last context switch didn't
leave the FPU in a lazily usable state), so we know that *that*
thread has done nothing else with the FPU since.
These two fields together can be used when next switching back to the
task to see if the CPU still matches: if 'fpu_owner_task' matches the
task we are switching to, we know that no other task (or kernel FPU
usage) touched the FPU on this CPU in the meantime, and if the current
CPU number matches the 'last_cpu' field, we know that this thread did no
other FP work on any other CPU, so the FPU state on the CPU must match
what was saved on last context switch.
In that case, we can avoid the 'f[x]rstor' entirely, and just clear the
CR0.TS bit.

This inlines what is usually just a couple of instructions, but more
importantly it also fixes the theoretical error case (can that FPU

This makes sure we clear the FPU usage counter for newly created tasks,
just so that we start off in a known state (for example, don't try to
preload the FPU state on the first task switch etc).
It also fixes a thinko in when we increment the fpu_counter at task
switch time, introduced by commit 34ddc81a23 ("i387: re-introduce FPU
state preloading at context switch time"). We should increment the
*new* task fpu_counter, not the old task, and only if we decide to use
that state (whether lazily or preloaded).

along with a detailed description of the problem and solution.
But since that posting has gone nowhere I am proposing
this band-aid solution so that at least users don't get
the page corruption (the pages that are WC don't get changed to WB

The negative impact of this patch is that users of WC flag
(which are InfiniBand, radeon, nouveau drivers) won't be able
to set that flag - so they are going to see performance degradation.
But stability is more important here.

If the irq happens in user mode, our kernel stack is empty
(apart from the pt_regs themselves, of course), so there's no
need or advantage to switch.
And it really doesn't save any stack space, quite the reverse:
it means that a nested interrupt cannot switch irq stacks. So
instead of saving kernel stack space, it actually causes the
potential for *more* stack usage.
Also simplify the preemption count copy when we do switch
stacks: just copy the whole preemption count, rather than just
the softirq parts of it. There is no advantage to the partial
copy: it is more effort to get a less correct result.

Currently, the NMI handler tests if it is nested by checking the
special variable saved on the stack (set during NMI handling)
and whether the saved stack is the NMI stack as well (to prevent
the race when the variable is set to zero).
But userspace may set their %rsp to any value as long as they do
not derefence it, and it may make it point to the NMI stack,
which will prevent NMIs from triggering while the userspace app
is running. (I tested this, and it is indeed the case)
Add another check to determine nested NMIs by looking at the
saved %cs (code segment register) and making sure that it is the
kernel code segment.

After all the FPU state cleanups and finally finding the problem that
caused all our FPU save/restore problems, this re-introduces the
preloading of FPU state that was removed in commit b3b0870ef3 ("i387:
do not preload FPU state at task switch time").
However, instead of simply reverting the removal, this reimplements
preloading with several fixes, most notably
- properly abstracted as a true FPU state switch, rather than as
open-coded save and restore with various hacks.
In particular, implementing it as a proper FPU state switch allows us
to optimize the CR0.TS flag accesses: there is no reason to set the
TS bit only to then almost immediately clear it again. CR0 accesses
are quite slow and expensive, don't flip the bit back and forth for
no good reason.
- Make sure that the same model works for both x86-32 and x86-64, so
that there are no gratuitous differences between the two due to the
way they save and restore segment state differently due to
architectural differences that really don't matter to the FPU state.
- Avoid exposing the "preload" state to the context switch routines,
and in particular allow the concept of lazy state restore: if nothing
else has used the FPU in the meantime, and the process is still on
the same CPU, we can avoid restoring state from memory entirely, just
re-expose the state that is still in the FPU unit.
That optimized lazy restore isn't actually implemented here, but the
infrastructure is set up for it. Of course, older CPU's that use
'fnsave' to save the state cannot take advantage of this, since the
state saving also trashes the state.
In other words, there is now an actual _design_ to the FPU state saving,
rather than just random historical baggage. Hopefully it's easier to
follow as a result.

This moves the bit that indicates whether a thread has ownership of the
FPU from the TS_USEDFPU bit in thread_info->status to a word of its own
(called 'has_fpu') in task_struct->thread.has_fpu.
This fixes two independent bugs at the same time:
- changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty
problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to
be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was
supposed to indicate).
So perfectly valid code could (and did) do
ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK;
and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store
instructions. Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task
switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The
change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store.
In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field
was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to
generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus
happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low
fat and preemption-safe.
- On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts
and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because
x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the
separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd
thread_info copy aliases.
This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to
look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at
interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the
heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel
away the FPU state.
(It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers).
It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural
for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they
tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie
scheduling). And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is
found there too.

The AMD K7/K8 CPUs don't save/restore FDP/FIP/FOP unless an exception is
pending. In order to not leak FIP state from one process to another, we
need to do a floating point load after the fxsave of the old process,
and before the fxrstor of the new FPU state. That resets the state to
the (uninteresting) kernel load, rather than some potentially sensitive
user information.
We used to do this directly after the FPU state save, but that is
actually very inconvenient, since it
(a) corrupts what is potentially perfectly good FPU state that we might
want to lazy avoid restoring later and
(b) on x86-64 it resulted in a very annoying ordering constraint, where
"__unlazy_fpu()" in the task switch needs to be delayed until after
the DS segment has been reloaded just to get the new DS value.
Coupling it to the fxrstor instead of the fxsave automatically avoids
both of these issues, and also ensures that we only do it when actually
necessary (the FP state after a save may never actually get used). It's
simply a much more natural place for the leaked state cleanup.

Yes, taking the trap to re-load the FPU/MMX state is expensive, but so
is spending several days looking for a bug in the state save/restore
code. And the preload code has some rather subtle interactions with
both paravirtualization support and segment state restore, so it's not
nearly as simple as it should be.
Also, now that we no longer necessarily depend on a single bit (ie
TS_USEDFPU) for keeping track of the state of the FPU, we migth be able
to do better. If we are really switching between two processes that
keep touching the FP state, save/restore is inevitable, but in the case
of having one process that does most of the FPU usage, we may actually
be able to do much better than the preloading.
In particular, we may be able to keep track of which CPU the process ran
on last, and also per CPU keep track of which process' FP state that CPU
has. For modern CPU's that don't destroy the FPU contents on save time,
that would allow us to do a lazy restore by just re-enabling the
existing FPU state - with no restore cost at all!

This creates three helper functions that do the TS_USEDFPU accesses, and
makes everybody that used to do it by hand use those helpers instead.
In addition, there's a couple of helper functions for the "change both
CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU at the same time" case, and the places that do
that together have been changed to use those. That means that we have
fewer random places that open-code this situation.
The intent is partly to clarify the code without actually changing any
semantics yet (since we clearly still have some hard to reproduce bug in
this area), but also to make it much easier to use another approach
entirely to caching the CR0.TS bit for software accesses.
Right now we use a bit in the thread-info 'status' variable (this patch
does not change that), but we might want to make it a full field of its
own or even make it a per-cpu variable.

Touching TS_USEDFPU without touching CR0.TS is confusing, so don't do
it. By moving it into the callers, we always do the TS_USEDFPU next to
the CR0.TS accesses in the source code, and it's much easier to see how
the two go hand in hand.

Commit 5b1cbac377 ("i387: make irq_fpu_usable() tests more robust")
added a sanity check to the #NM handler to verify that we never cause
the "Device Not Available" exception in kernel mode.
However, that check actually pinpointed a (fundamental) race where we do
cause that exception as part of the signal stack FPU state save/restore
code.
Because we use the floating point instructions themselves to save and
restore state directly from user mode, we cannot do that atomically with
testing the TS_USEDFPU bit: the user mode access itself may cause a page
fault, which causes a task switch, which saves and restores the FP/MMX
state from the kernel buffers.
This kind of "recursive" FP state save is fine per se, but it means that
when the signal stack save/restore gets restarted, it will now take the
'#NM' exception we originally tried to avoid. With preemption this can
happen even without the page fault - but because of the user access, we
cannot just disable preemption around the save/restore instruction.
There are various ways to solve this, including using the
"enable/disable_page_fault()" helpers to not allow page faults at all
during the sequence, and fall back to copying things by hand without the
use of the native FP state save/restore instructions.
However, the simplest thing to do is to just allow the #NM from kernel
space, but fix the race in setting and clearing CR0.TS that this all
exposed: the TS bit changes and the TS_USEDFPU bit absolutely have to be
atomic wrt scheduling, so while the actual state save/restore can be
interrupted and restarted, the act of actually clearing/setting CR0.TS
and the TS_USEDFPU bit together must not.
Instead of just adding random "preempt_disable/enable()" calls to what
is already excessively ugly code, this introduces some helper functions
that mostly mirror the "kernel_fpu_begin/end()" functionality, just for
the user state instead.
Those helper functions should probably eventually replace the other
ad-hoc CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU tests too, but I'll need to think about it
some more: the task switching functionality in particular needs to
expose the difference between the 'prev' and 'next' threads, while the
new helper functions intentionally were written to only work with
'current'.

I hadn't noticed, because my "tests" were bogus: the FPU exceptions are
disabled by default, so even doing a divide by zero never actually
triggers this code at all unless you do extra work to enable them.
So if anybody did enable them, they'd get one spurious warning.

Commit 58c84eda07 introduced functionality to try and reinstate the

assignment attempts fail. To keep track of the BIOS BAR addresses,
struct pci_dev was augmented with an array to hold the BAR addresses
of the PCI device: 'resource_size_t fw_addr[DEVICE_COUNT_RESOURCE]'.
The reinstatement of BAR addresses is an uncommon event leaving the
'fw_addr' array unused under normal circumstances. This functionality
is also currently architecture specific with an implementation limited
to x86. As the use of struct pci_dev is so prevalent, having the
'fw_addr' array residing within such seems somewhat wasteful.
This patch introduces a stand alone data structure and interfacing
routines for maintaining a list of FW-assigned BIOS BAR value entries.

Some code - especially the crypto layer - wants to use the x86
FP/MMX/AVX register set in what may be interrupt (typically softirq)
context.
That *can* be ok, but the tests for when it was ok were somewhat
suspect. We cannot touch the thread-specific status bits either, so
we'd better check that we're not going to try to save FP state or
anything like that.
Now, it may be that the TS bit is always cleared *before* we set the
USEDFPU bit (and only set when we had already cleared the USEDFP
before), so the TS bit test may actually have been sufficient, but it
certainly was not obviously so.
So this explicitly verifies that we will not touch the TS_USEDFPU bit,
and adds a few related sanity-checks. Because it seems that somehow
AES-NI is corrupting user FP state. The cause is not clear, and this
patch doesn't fix it, but while debugging it I really wanted the code to

The following patch fixes a bug introduced by the following
commit:
e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
The patch caused the following warning to pop up depending on
the sampling frequency adjustments:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c:995 x86_pmu_start+0x79/0xd4()
It was caused by the following call sequence:
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.part() {
stop()
if (delta > 0) {
perf_adjust_period() {
if (period > 8*...) {
stop()
...
start()
}
}
}
start()
}
Which caused a double start and a double stop, thus triggering
the assert in x86_pmu_start().
The patch fixes the problem by avoiding the double calls. We
pass a new argument to perf_adjust_period() to indicate whether
or not the event is already stopped. We can't just remove the
start/stop from that function because it's called from
__perf_event_overflow where the event needs to be reloaded via a
stop/start back-toback call.
The patch reintroduces the assertion in x86_pmu_start() which
was removed by commit:

which, if set, would mean that we get to use the TSC as sample
source which would give us much higher precision.
However, there's no reason not to set sched_clock_stable on AMD
because all families from F10h and upwards do have an invariant

The definition of it being questionable already (unnecessarily
including a cast), and it being used in a single place that can
be written shorter without it, remove this #define.
Along the same lines, simplify __ticket_spin_is_locked()'s main
expression, which was the more convoluted way because of needs
that went away with the recent type changes by Jeremy.
This is pure cleanup, no functional change intended.

Sodaville has GPIO controller behind the PCI bus. To my suprissed it is
not the same as on PXA.
The interrupt & gpio chip can be referenced from the device tree like
from any other driver. Unfortunately the driver which uses the gpio
interrupt has to use irq_of_parse_and_map() instead of
platform_get_irq(). The problem is that the platform device (which is
created from the device tree) is most likely created before the
interrupt chip is registered and therefore irq_of_parse_and_map() fails.
In theory the driver works as module. In reality most of the irq
functions are not exported to modules and it is possible that _this_
module is unloaded while the provided irqs are still in use.

|- cpu_idle
\- play_dead [assuming the user offlined the VCPU]

| | onlines it starts from here]
| \- cpu_bringup [preempt_disable]
|
+- preempt_enable_no_reschedule()
+- schedule()
\- preempt_enable()
So we have two preempt_disble() and one preempt_enable(). Calling
preempt_enable() after the cpu_bringup() in the xen_play_dead
fixes the imbalance.

With the new throttling/unthrottling code introduced with
commit:
e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
we occasionally hit two WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in:
- intel_pmu_pebs_enable()
- intel_pmu_lbr_enable()
- x86_pmu_start()
The assertions are no longer problematic. There is a valid
path where they can trigger but it is harmless.
The assertion can be triggered with:
$ perf record -e instructions:pp ....
Leading to paths:
intel_pmu_pebs_enable
intel_pmu_enable_event
x86_perf_event_set_period
x86_pmu_start
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context
perf_event_task_tick
scheduler_tick
And:
intel_pmu_lbr_enable
intel_pmu_enable_event
x86_perf_event_set_period
x86_pmu_start
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context.
perf_event_task_tick
scheduler_tick
cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to
perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally
disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period,
we only stop the event we need to change and not the
entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is
already set. Note that when we stop the event, both
pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests
may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following
nasm-demo-application:
[bits 32]
global _start
SECTION .text
_start: syscall
(I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed)
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <_start>:
0: 0f 05 syscall
The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the
syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs
within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode.
(depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid)
Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding
syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain
NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple
faults and finally crashs.
Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by
guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation
are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave
like the CPUs physical counterparts.

This commit removes the reboot quirk originally added by commit
e19e074 ("x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards").
Testing with a VersaLogic Ocelot (VL-EPMs-21a rev 1.00 w/ BIOS
6.5.102) revealed the following regarding the reboot hang
problem:
- v2.6.37 reboot=bios was needed.
- v2.6.38-rc1: behavior changed, reboot=acpi is needed,
reboot=kbd and reboot=bios results in system hang.
- v2.6.38: VersaLogic patch (e19e074 "x86: Fix reboot problem on
VersaLogic Menlow boards") was applied prior to v2.6.38-rc7. This
patch sets a quirk for VersaLogic Menlow boards that forces the use
of reboot=bios, which doesn't work anymore.
- v3.2: It seems that commit 660e34c ("x86: Reorder reboot method
preferences") changed the default reboot method to acpi prior to
v3.0-rc1, which means the default behavior is appropriate for the
Ocelot. No VersaLogic quirk is required.
The Ocelot board used for testing can successfully reboot w/out
having to pass any reboot= arguments for all 3 current versions
of the BIOS.

The current device suspend/resume phases during system-wide power
transitions appear to be insufficient for some platforms that want
to use the same callback routines for saving device states and
related operations during runtime suspend/resume as well as during
system suspend/resume. In principle, they could point their
.suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() to the same callback routines
as their .runtime_suspend() and .runtime_resume(), respectively,
but at least some of them require device interrupts to be enabled
while the code in those routines is running.
It also makes sense to have device suspend-resume callbacks that will
be executed with runtime PM disabled and with device interrupts
enabled in case someone needs to run some special code in that
context during system-wide power transitions.
Apart from this, .suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() were introduced
as a workaround for drivers using shared interrupts and failing to
prevent their interrupt handlers from accessing suspended hardware.
It appears to be better not to use them for other porposes, or we may
have to deal with some serious confusion (which seems to be happening
already).
For the above reasons, introduce new device suspend/resume phases,
"late suspend" and "early resume" (and analogously for hibernation)
whose callback will be executed with runtime PM disabled and with
device interrupts enabled and whose callback pointers generally may
point to runtime suspend/resume routines.
