This patch adds a per package timer which periodically updates the memory bandwidth counters for the events that are currently active. Current patch has a periodic timer every 1s since the SDM guarantees that the counter will not overflow in 1s but this time can be definitely improved by calibrating on the system. The overflow is really a function of the max memory b/w that the socket can support, max counter value and scaling factor. Signed-off-by:

RMID could be allocated or deallocated as part of RMID recycling. When an RMID is allocated for MBM event, the MBM counter needs to be initialized because next time we read the counter we need the previous value to account for total bytes that went to the memory controller. Similarly, when RMID is deallocated we need to update the ->count variable. Signed-off-by:

Includes all the core infrastructure to measure the total_bytes and bandwidth. We have per socket counters for both total system wide L3 external bytes and local socket memory-controller bytes. The OS does MSR writes to MSR_IA32_QM_EVTSEL and MSR_IA32_QM_CTR to read the counters and uses the IA32_PQR_ASSOC_MSR to associate the RMID with the task. The tasks have a common RMID for CQM (cache quality of service monitoring) and MBM. Hence most of the scheduling code is reused from CQM. Signed-off-by:

The MBM init patch enumerates the Intel MBM (Memory b/w monitoring) and initializes the perf events and datastructures for monitoring the memory b/w. Its based on original patch series by Tony Luck and Kanaka Juvva. Memory bandwidth monitoring (MBM) provides OS/VMM a way to monitor bandwidth from one level of cache to another. The current patches support L3 external bandwidth monitoring. It supports both 'local bandwidth' and 'total bandwidth' monitoring for the socket. Local bandwidth measures the amount of data sent through the memory controller on the socket and total b/w measures the total system bandwidth. Extending the cache quality of service monitoring (CQM) we add two more events to the perf infrastructure: intel_cqm_llc/local_bytes - bytes sent through local socket memory controller intel_cqm_llc/total_bytes - total L3 external bytes sent The tasks are associated with a Resouce Monitoring ID (RMID) just like in CQM and OS uses a MSR write to indicate the RMID of the task during scheduling.

Fixes the hotcpu notifier leak and other global variable memory leaks during CQM (cache quality of service monitoring) initialization. Signed-off-by:
-
Vikas Shivappa authored
Currently CQM (cache quality of service monitoring) is grouping all events belonging to same PID to use one RMID. However its not counting all of these different events. Hence we end up with a count of zero for all events other than the group leader. The patch tries to address the issue by keeping a flag in the perf_event.hw which has other CQM related fields. The field is updated at event creation and during grouping. Signed-off-by:

There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism, both triggered by the same action. When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole dynamic throttle. This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will generate a warning in dmesg. The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on the observed duration. Signed-off-by:

Interrupt throttling is normally only done against sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate. This means that if that number is too high (for whatever reason) you can lock up your machine. We have, however, a dynamic throttling scheme too, but for that to work, we need to add a callback to the interrupt handler, IBS did not have this, so add it. Signed-off-by:

Peter Zijlstra authored
While tracing the IBS bits I saw the NMI hitting between clearing IBS_STARTING and the actual MSR writes to disable the counter. Since IBS_STARTING was cleared, the handler assumed these were spurious NMIs and because STOPPING wasn't set yet either, insta-triggered an "Unknown NMI". Cure this by clearing IBS_STARTING after disabling the hardware. Tested-by:

When the IBS IRQ handler get a !0 return from perf_event_overflow; meaning it should throttle the event, it only disables it, it doesn't call perf_ibs_stop(). This confuses the state machine, as we'll use pmu::start() -> perf_ibs_start() to unthrottle. Tested-by:

Its possible to IOC_PERIOD while the event is throttled, this would re-start the event and the next tick would then try to unthrottle it, and find the event wasn't actually stopped anymore. This would tickle a WARN in the x86-pmu code which isn't expecting to start a !stopped event. Signed-off-by:

nr_cpu_ids can be limited on the command line via nr_cpus=. That can break the logical package management because it results in a smaller number of packages, but the cpus to online are occupying the full package space as the hyper threads are enumerated after the physical cores typically. total_cpus is the real possible cpu space not limited by nr_cpus command line and gives us the proper number of packages.

As per the comment in the code; due to BIOS it is sometimes impossible to know if there actually are smp siblings until the machine is fully enumerated. So we rather overestimate the number of possible packages. Fixes: 1f12e32f ("x86/topology: Create logical package id") Signed-off-by:

That first branch testing pkg against __max_logical_packages is wrong, because if the first pkg id is larger, then the find_first_zero will find us logical package id 0. However, if the second pkg id is indeed 0, we'll again claim it without testing if it was already taken. Also, it fails to print the mapping.

Harry reported, that he's able to trigger a system freeze with cpu hot unplug. The freeze turned out to be a live lock caused by recent changes in irq_force_complete_move(). When fixup_irqs() and from there irq_force_complete_move() is called on the dying cpu, then all other cpus are in stop machine an wait for the dying cpu to complete the teardown. If there is a move of an interrupt pending then irq_force_complete_move() sends the cleanup IPI to the cpus in the old_domain mask and waits for them to clear the mask. That's obviously impossible as those cpus are firmly stuck in stop machine with interrupts disabled. I should have known that, but I completely overlooked it being concentrated on the locking issues around the vectors. And the existance of the call to __irq_complete_move() in the code, which actually sends the cleanup IPI made it reasonable to wait for that cleanup to complete. That call was bogus even before the recent changes as it was just a pointless distraction. We have to look at two cases: 1) The move_in_progress flag of the interrupt is set This means the ioapic has been updated with the new vector, but it has not fired yet. In theory there is a race: set_ioapic(new_vector) <-- Interrupt is raised before update is effective, i.e. it's raised on the old vector. So if the target cpu cannot handle that interrupt before the old vector is cleaned up, we get a spurious interrupt and in the worst case the ioapic irq line becomes stale, but my experiments so far have only resulted in spurious interrupts. But in case of cpu hotplug this should be a non issue because if the affinity update happens right before all cpus rendevouz in stop machine, there is no way that the interrupt can be blocked on the target cpu because all cpus loops first with interrupts enabled in stop machine, so the old vector is not yet cleaned up when the interrupt fires. So the only way to run into this issue is if the delivery of the interrupt on the apic/system bus would be delayed beyond the point where the target cpu disables interrupts in stop machine. I doubt that it can happen, but at least there is a theroretical chance. Virtualization might be able to expose this, but AFAICT the IOAPIC emulation is not as stupid as the real hardware. I've spent quite some time over the weekend to enforce that situation, though I was not able to trigger the delayed case. 2) The move_in_progress flag is not set and the old_domain cpu mask is not empty. That means, that an interrupt was delivered after the change and the cleanup IPI has been sent to the cpus in old_domain, but not all CPUs have responded to it yet. In both cases we can assume that the next interrupt will arrive on the new vector, so we can cleanup the old vectors on the cpus in the old_domain cpu mask.

The topology_core_cpumask is used to find a neighbour cpu in calibrate_delay_is_known(). It might not be allocated at the first invocation of that function on the boot cpu, when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set. The mask is allocated later in native_smp_prepare_cpus. As a consequence the underlying find_next_bit() call dereferences a NULL pointer. Add a proper check to prevent this. Fixes: c25323c0 "x86/tsc: Use topology functions" Reported-and-tested-by:

On Xen PV, regs->flags doesn't reliably reflect IOPL and the exit-to-userspace code doesn't change IOPL. We need to context switch it manually. I'm doing this without going through paravirt because this is specific to Xen PV. After the dust settles, we can merge this with the 32-bit code, tidy up the iopl syscall implementation, and remove the set_iopl pvop entirely. Fixes XSA-171. Reviewewd-by:

Returning a 'bool' was very unpopular. Doubly so because the code was just wrong (returning zero for true, one for false; great for shell programming, not so good for C). Change return type to "int". Keep zero as the success indicator because it matches other similar code and people may be more comfortable writing: if (memcpy_mcsafe(to, from, count)) { printk("Sad panda, copy failed\n"); ... } Make the failure return value -EFAULT for now.
