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:

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.

Pull cpu hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner: "This is the first part of the ongoing cpu hotplug rework: - Initial implementation of the state machine - Runs all online and prepare down callbacks on the plugged cpu and not on some random processor - Replaces busy loop waiting with completions - Adds tracepoints so the states can be followed" More detailed commentary on this work from an earlier email: "What's wrong with the current cpu hotplug infrastructure? - Asymmetry The hotplug notifier mechanism is asymmetric versus the bringup and teardown. This is mostly caused by the notifier mechanism. - Largely undocumented dependencies While some notifiers use explicitely defined notifier priorities, we have quite some notifiers which use numerical priorities to express dependencies without any documentation why. - Control processor driven Most of the bringup/teardown of a cpu is driven by a control processor. While it is understandable, that preperatory steps, like idle thread creation, memory allocation for and initialization of essential facilities needs to be done before a cpu can boot, there is no reason why everything else must run on a control processor. Before this patch series, bringup looks like this: Control CPU Booting CPU do preparatory steps kick cpu into life do low level init sync with booting cpu sync with control cpu bring the rest up - All or nothing approach There is no way to do partial bringups. That's something which is really desired because we waste e.g. at boot substantial amount of time just busy waiting that the cpu comes to life. That's stupid as we could very well do preparatory steps and the initial IPI for other cpus and then go back and do the necessary low level synchronization with the freshly booted cpu. - Minimal debuggability Due to the notifier based design, it's impossible to switch between two stages of the bringup/teardown back and forth in order to test the correctness. So in many hotplug notifiers the cancel mechanisms are either not existant or completely untested. - Notifier [un]registering is tedious To [un]register notifiers we need to protect against hotplug at every callsite. There is no mechanism that bringup/teardown callbacks are issued on the online cpus, so every caller needs to do it itself. That also includes error rollback. What's the new design? The base of the new design is a symmetric state machine, where both the control processor and the booting/dying cpu execute a well defined set of states. Each state is symmetric in the end, except for some well defined exceptions, and the bringup/teardown can be stopped and reversed at almost all states. So the bringup of a cpu will look like this in the future: Control CPU Booting CPU do preparatory steps kick cpu into life do low level init sync with booting cpu sync with control cpu bring itself up The synchronization step does not require the control cpu to wait. That mechanism can be done asynchronously via a worker or some other mechanism. The teardown can be made very similar, so that the dying cpu cleans up and brings itself down. Cleanups which need to be done after the cpu is gone, can be scheduled asynchronously as well. There is a long way to this, as we need to refactor the notion when a cpu is available. Today we set the cpu online right after it comes out of the low level bringup, which is not really correct. The proper mechanism is to set it to available, i.e. cpu local threads, like softirqd, hotplug thread etc. can be scheduled on that cpu, and once it finished all booting steps, it's set to online, so general workloads can be scheduled on it. The reverse happens on teardown. First thing to do is to forbid scheduling of general workloads, then teardown all the per cpu resources and finally shut it off completely. This patch series implements the basic infrastructure for this at the core level. This includes the following: - Basic state machine implementation with well defined states, so ordering and prioritization can be expressed. - Interfaces to [un]register state callbacks This invokes the bringup/teardown callback on all online cpus with the proper protection in place and [un]installs the callbacks in the state machine array. For callbacks which have no particular ordering requirement we have a dynamic state space, so that drivers don't have to register an explicit hotplug state. If a callback fails, the code automatically does a rollback to the previous state. - Sysfs interface to drive the state machine to a particular step. This is only partially functional today. Full functionality and therefor testability will be achieved once we converted all existing hotplug notifiers over to the new scheme. - Run all CPU_ONLINE/DOWN_PREPARE notifiers on the booting/dying processor: Control CPU Booting CPU do preparatory steps kick cpu into life do low level init sync with booting cpu sync with control cpu wait for boot bring itself up Signal completion to control cpu In a previous step of this work we've done a full tree mechanical conversion of all hotplug notifiers to the new scheme. The balance is a net removal of about 4000 lines of code. This is not included in this series, as we decided to take a different approach. Instead of mechanically converting everything over, we will do a proper overhaul of the usage sites one by one so they nicely fit into the symmetric callback scheme. I decided to do that after I looked at the ugliness of some of the converted sites and figured out that their hotplug mechanism is completely buggered anyway. So there is no point to do a mechanical conversion first as we need to go through the usage sites one by one again in order to achieve a full symmetric and testable behaviour" * 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) cpu/hotplug: Document states better cpu/hotplug: Fix smpboot thread ordering cpu/hotplug: Remove redundant state check cpu/hotplug: Plug death reporting race rcu: Make CPU_DYING_IDLE an explicit call cpu/hotplug: Make wait for dead cpu completion based cpu/hotplug: Let upcoming cpu bring itself fully up arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state cpu/hotplug: Move online calls to hotplugged cpu cpu/hotplug: Create hotplug threads cpu/hotplug: Split out the state walk into functions cpu/hotplug: Unpark smpboot threads from the state machine cpu/hotplug: Move scheduler cpu_online notifier to hotplug core cpu/hotplug: Implement setup/removal interface cpu/hotplug: Make target state writeable cpu/hotplug: Add sysfs state interface cpu/hotplug: Hand in target state to _cpu_up/down cpu/hotplug: Convert the hotplugged cpu work to a state machine cpu/hotplug: Convert to a state machine for the control processor cpu/hotplug: Add tracepoints ... -

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle are: - Make schedstats a runtime tunable (disabled by default) and optimize it via static keys. As most distributions enable CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS=y due to its instrumentation value, this is a nice performance enhancement. (Mel Gorman) - Implement 'simple waitqueues' (swait): these are just pure waitqueues without any of the more complex features of full-blown waitqueues (callbacks, wake flags, wake keys, etc.). Simple waitqueues have less memory overhead and are faster. Use simple waitqueues in the RCU code (in 4 different places) and for handling KVM vCPU wakeups.

A few highlights: perf report/top: - Hierarchy histogram mode for 'perf top' and 'perf report', showing multiple levels, one per --sort entry: (Namhyung Kim) On a mostly idle system: # perf top --hierarchy -s comm,dso Then expand some levels and use 'P' to take a snapshot: # cat perf.hist.0 - 92.32% perf 58.20% perf 22.29% libc-2.22.so 5.97% [kernel] 4.18% libelf-0.165.so 1.69% [unknown] - 4.71% qemu-system-x86 3.10% [kernel] 1.60% qemu-system-x86_64 (deleted) + 2.97% swapper # - Add 'L' hotkey to dynamicly set the percent threshold for histogram entries and callchains, i.e. dynamicly do what the --percent-limit command line option to 'top' and 'report' does. (Namhyung Kim) perf mem: - Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri Olsa) perf record: - Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one can tell that all the events in the command line should be restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.: perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u is equivalent to: perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions - Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header: $ perf record usleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ] $ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8 # CPU cache info: # L1 Data 32K [0-1] # L1 Instruction 32K [0-1] # L1 Data 32K [2-3] # L1 Instruction 32K [2-3] # L2 Unified 256K [0-1] # L2 Unified 256K [2-3] # L3 Unified 4096K [0-3] Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference. (Jiri Olsa) - Improved support for Java, using the JVMTI agent library to do jitdumps that then will be inserted in synthesized PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events via 'perf inject' pointed to synthesized ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow symbol resolution and even annotation with source line info, see the changeset comments to see how to use it (Stephane Eranian) perf script/trace: - Decode data_src values (e.g. perf.data files generated by 'perf mem record') in 'perf script': (Jiri Olsa) # perf script perf 693 [1] 4.088652: 1 cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: ffff88007d0b0f40 68100142 L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No <SNIP> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - Improve support to 'data_src', 'weight' and 'addr' fields in 'perf script' (Jiri Olsa) - Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running python or perl scripts (Taeung Song) perf stat: - 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in interval mode too.

Pull read-only kernel memory updates from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds two (security related) enhancements to the kernel's handling of read-only kernel memory: - extend read-only kernel memory to a new class of formerly writable kernel data: 'post-init read-only memory' via the __ro_after_init attribute, and mark the ARM and x86 vDSO as such read-only memory. This kind of attribute can be used for data that requires a once per bootup initialization sequence, but is otherwise never modified after that point. This feature was based on the work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler. (by Kees Cook, the ARM vDSO bits by David Brown.) - make CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA always enabled on x86 and remove the Kconfig option. This simplifies the kernel and also signals that read-only memory is the default model and a first-class citizen.
