- Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache
lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles
slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts
performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is
a unpriviledged form of DoS.
Some newer CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when such an
operation is attempted. The detection is by default enabled in warning
mode which will warn once when a user space application is caught. A
command line option allows to disable the detection or to select fatal
mode which will terminate offending applications with SIGBUS.

- Consolidation of the vDSO build infrastructure to address the
difficulties of cross-builds for ARM64 compat vDSO libraries by
restricting the exposure of header content to the vDSO build.
This is achieved by splitting out header content into separate
headers. which contain only the minimaly required information which is
necessary to build the vDSO. These new headers are included from the
kernel headers and the vDSO specific files.
- Enhancements to the generic vDSO library allowing more fine grained
control over the compiled in code, further reducing architecture
specific storage and preparing for adopting the generic library by PPC.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the exit related code in posix CPU timers.
- Small cleanups and enhancements here and there

"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and

result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The EFI changes in this cycle are much larger than usual, for two
(positive) reasons:
- The GRUB project is showing signs of life again, resulting in the
introduction of the generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol, instead of
x86 specific hacks which are increasingly difficult to maintain.
There's hope that all future extensions will now go through that
boot protocol.
- Preparatory work for RISC-V EFI support.
The main changes are:
- Boot time GDT handling changes
- Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64
- Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file
I/O, memory allocation, etc.
- Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back
into the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover
protocol or device tree.
- Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86
EFI handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by
other architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one
execution mode is a superset of another)
- Clean up the contents of 'struct efi', and move out everything that
doesn't need to be stored there.
- Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit
firmware implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI
runtime services at OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are
supported or unsupported via a configuration table.
- Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the
decompressor on 32-bit ARM.
- Changes to load device firmware from EFI boot service memory
regions
- Various documentation updates and minor code cleanups and fixes"

Move access_ok() in and pagefault_enable()/pagefault_disable() out.
Mechanical conversion only - some instances don't really need
a separate access_ok() at all (e.g. the ones only using
get_user()/put_user(), or architectures where access_ok()
is always true); we'll deal with that in followups.

Finding all places which build x86_cpu_id match tables is tedious and the
logic is hidden in lots of differently named macro wrappers.
Most of these initializer macros use plain C89 initializers which rely on
the ordering of the struct members. So new members could only be added at
the end of the struct, but that's ugly as hell and C99 initializers are
really the right thing to use.
Provide a set of macros which:
- Have a proper naming scheme, starting with X86_MATCH_
- Use C99 initializers
The set of provided macros are all subsets of the base macro
X86_MATCH_VENDOR_FAM_MODEL_FEATURE()
which allows to supply all possible selection criteria:
vendor, family, model, feature
The other macros shorten this to avoid typing all arguments when they are
not needed and would require one of the _ANY constants. They have been
created due to the requirements of the existing usage sites.
Also add a few model constants for Centaur CPUs and QUARK.

Newer AMD CPUs support a feature called protected processor
identification number (PPIN). This feature can be detected via
CPUID_Fn80000008_EBX[23].
However, CPUID alone is not enough to read the processor identification
number - MSR_AMD_PPIN_CTL also needs to be configured properly. If, for
any reason, MSR_AMD_PPIN_CTL[PPIN_EN] can not be turned on, such as
disabled in BIOS, the CPU capability bit X86_FEATURE_AMD_PPIN needs to
be cleared.
When the X86_FEATURE_AMD_PPIN capability is available, the
identification number is issued together with the MCE error info in
order to keep track of the source of MCE errors.

In this case we must of course clear FLAGS.AC while running the KPROBE.
Luckily the trampoline already saves/restores [ER]FLAGS, so all we need

When booting x86 images in qemu, the following warning is seen randomly
if DEBUG_LOCKDEP is enabled.
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1119
lockdep_register_key+0xc0/0x100
static_obj() returns true if an address is between _stext and _end.
On x86, this includes the brk memory space. Problem is that this memory
block is not static on x86; its unused portions are released after init
and can be allocated. This results in the observed warning if a lockdep
object is allocated from this memory.
Solve the problem by implementing arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() for
x86 and have it return true if an address is within the released memory
range.
The same problem was solved for s390 with commit
7a5da02de8 ("locking/lockdep: check for freed initmem in static_obj()"),
which introduced arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed().

Fix many sparse warnings when building with C=1. These are useless noise
from the bitops.h file and getting rid of them helps developers make
more use of the tools and possibly find real bugs.
When the kernel is compiled with C=1, there are lots of messages like:
arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:77:37: warning: cast truncates bits from constant value (ffffff7f becomes 7f)
CONST_MASK() is using a signed integer "1" to create the mask which is
later cast to (u8), in order to yield an 8-bit value for the assembly
instructions to use. Simplify the expressions used to clearly indicate
they are working on 8-bit values only, which still keeps sparse happy
without an accidental promotion to a 32 bit integer.
The warning was occurring because certain bitmasks that end with a bit
set next to a natural boundary like 7, 15, 23, 31, end up with a mask
like 0x7f, which then results in sign extension due to the integer type
promotion rules[1]. It was really only clear_bit() that was having
problems, and it was only on some bit checks that resulted in a mask
like 0xffffff7f being generated after the inversion.
Verify with a test module (see next patch) and assembly inspection that
the fix doesn't introduce any change in generated code.

Family 19h introduces change in slice, core and thread specification in

Introduce a new path in l3_thread_slice_mask() to do things differently

Instead of a linear core--thread bitmask, Family 19h takes an encoded
core number, and a separate thread mask. There are new bits that are set
for all cores and all slices, of which only the latter is used, since
the driver counts events for all slices on behalf of the specified CPU.

When SEV or SME is enabled and active, vm_get_page_prot() typically
returns with the encryption bit set. This means that users of
pgprot_modify(, vm_get_page_prot()) (mprotect_fixup(), do_mmap()) end up
with a value of vma->vm_pg_prot that is not consistent with the intended
protection of the PTEs.
This is also important for fault handlers that rely on the VMA
vm_page_prot to set the page protection. Fix this by not allowing

Allocate the emulation context instead of embedding it in struct
kvm_vcpu_arch.
Dynamic allocation provides several benefits:
- Shrinks the size x86 vcpus by ~2.5k bytes, dropping them back below
the PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER threshold.
- Allows for dropping the include of kvm_emulate.h from asm/kvm_host.h
and moving kvm_emulate.h into KVM's private directory.
- Allows a reducing KVM's attack surface by shrinking the amount of
vCPU data that is exposed to usercopy.
- Allows a future patch to disable the emulator entirely, which may or
may not be a realistic endeavor.
Mark the entire struct as valid for usercopy to maintain existing
behavior with respect to hardened usercopy. Future patches can shrink
the usercopy range to cover only what is necessary.

Return true for vmx_interrupt_allowed() if the vCPU is in L2 and L1 has
external interrupt exiting enabled. IRQs are never blocked in hardware
if the CPU is in the guest (L2 from L1's perspective) when IRQs trigger
VM-Exit.
The new check percolates up to kvm_vcpu_ready_for_interrupt_injection()
and thus vcpu_run(), and so KVM will exit to userspace if userspace has
requested an interrupt window (to inject an IRQ into L1).
Remove the @external_intr param from vmx_check_nested_events(), which is
actually an indicator that userspace wants an interrupt window, e.g.
it's named @req_int_win further up the stack. Injecting a VM-Exit into
L1 to try and bounce out to L0 userspace is all kinds of broken and is
no longer necessary.
Remove the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit() that attempted to workaround the
breakage in vmx_check_nested_events() by only filling interrupt info if
there's an actual interrupt pending. The hack actually made things
worse because it caused KVM to _never_ fill interrupt info when the
LAPIC resides in userspace (kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() queries
interrupt.injected, which is always cleared by prepare_vmcs12() before
reaching the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit()).

It could take kvm->mmu_lock for an extended period of time when
enabling dirty log for the first time. The main cost is to clear
all the D-bits of last level SPTEs. This situation can benefit from
manual dirty log protect as well, which can reduce the mmu_lock
time taken. The sequence is like this:
1. Initialize all the bits of the dirty bitmap to 1 when enabling
dirty log for the first time
2. Only write protect the huge pages
3. KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG returns the dirty bitmap info
4. KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG will clear D-bit for each of the leaf level
SPTEs gradually in small chunks

The AVIC does not support guest use of the x2APIC interface. Currently,
KVM simply chooses to squash the x2APIC feature in the guest's CPUID
If the AVIC is enabled. Doing so prevents KVM from running a guest
with greater than 255 vCPUs, as such a guest necessitates the use
of the x2APIC interface.
Instead, inhibit AVIC enablement on a per-VM basis whenever the x2APIC

Note, although hyperv.hv_pa_pg is part of the common kvm->arch, it's

Family 19h CPUs are Zen-based and still share most architectural
features with Family 17h CPUs, and therefore still need to call
init_amd_zn() e.g., to set the RECLAIM_DISTANCE override.
init_amd_zn() also sets X86_FEATURE_ZEN, which today is only used
in amd_set_core_ssb_state(), which isn't called on some late
model Family 17h CPUs, nor on any Family 19h CPUs:
X86_FEATURE_AMD_SSBD replaces X86_FEATURE_LS_CFG_SSBD on those
later model CPUs, where the SSBD mitigation is done via the
SPEC_CTRL MSR instead of the LS_CFG MSR.
Family 19h CPUs also don't have the erratum where the CPB feature
bit isn't set, but that code can stay unchanged and run safely
on Family 19h.

Currently, retarget_msi_interrupt and other structures it relys on are

in Hypervisor Top-Level Functional Specification [1] and may be
different in sizes of fields or layout from architecture to
architecture. Let's move those definitions into x86's tlfs header file
to support virtual PCI on non-x86 architectures in the future. Note that
"__packed" attribute is added to these structures during the movement
for the same reason as we use the attribute for other TLFS structures in
the header file: make sure the structures meet the specification and
avoid anything unexpected from the compilers.
Additionally, rename struct retarget_msi_interrupt to
hv_retarget_msi_interrupt for the consistent naming convention, also
mirroring the name in TLFS.

This time, the set of changes for the EFI subsystem is much larger than
usual. The main reasons are:
- Get things cleaned up before EFI support for RISC-V arrives, which will
increase the size of the validation matrix, and therefore the threshold to
making drastic changes,
- After years of defunct maintainership, the GRUB project has finally started
to consider changes from the distros regarding UEFI boot, some of which are
highly specific to the way x86 does UEFI secure boot and measured boot,
based on knowledge of both shim internals and the layout of bootparams and
the x86 setup header. Having this maintenance burden on other architectures
(which don't need shim in the first place) is hard to justify, so instead,
we are introducing a generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol.
Summary of changes:
- Boot time GDT handling changes (Arvind)
- Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64
- Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file I/O,
memory allocation, etc.
- Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back into
the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover protocol or
device tree.
- Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86 EFI
handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by other
architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one execution mode
is a superset of another)
- Clean up the contents of struct efi, and move out everything that
doesn't need to be stored there.
- Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit firmware
implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI runtime services at
OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are supported or unsupported
via a configuration table.
- Various documentation updates and minor code cleanups (Heinrich)
- Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the decompressor
on 32-bit ARM. Note that these patches were deliberately put at the
beginning so they can be used as a stable branch that will be shared with
a PR containing the complete fix, which I will send to the ARM tree.

Alex Shi reported the pkey macros above arch_set_user_pkey_access()
to be unused. They are unused, and even refer to a nonexistent
CONFIG option.
But, they might have served a good use, which was to ensure that
the code does not try to set values that would not fit in the
PKRU register. As it stands, a too-large 'pkey' value would
be likely to silently overflow the u32 new_pkru_bits.
Add a check to look for overflows. Also add a comment to remind
any future developer to closely examine the types used to store
pkey values if arch_max_pkey() ever changes.

service instead in both cases, so that we
a) can get rid of the deadloop, and simply return to the boot manager
if any errors occur during execution of the stub, including during
the call to ExitBootServices(),
b) can also return cleanly from efi_pe_entry() or efi_main() in mixed
mode, once we introduce support for LoadImage/StartImage based mixed
mode in the next patch.
Note that on systems running downstream GRUBs [which do not use LoadImage
or StartImage to boot the kernel, and instead, pass their own image
handle as the loaded image handle], calling Exit() will exit from GRUB
rather than from the kernel, but this is a tolerable side effect.

Instead of going through the EFI system table each time, just copy the
runtime services table pointer into struct efi directly. This is the
last use of the system table pointer in struct efi, allowing us to
drop it in a future patch, along with a fair amount of quirky handling
of the translated address.
Note that usually, the runtime services pointer changes value during
the call to SetVirtualAddressMap(), so grab the updated value as soon
as that call returns. (Mixed mode uses a 1:1 mapping, and kexec boot
enters with the updated address in the system table, so in those cases,
we don't need to do anything here)

There is some code that exposes physical addresses of certain parts of
the EFI firmware implementation via sysfs nodes. These nodes are only
used on x86, and are of dubious value to begin with, so let's move
their handling into the x86 arch code.

Since commit 33b85447fa ("efi/x86: Drop two near identical versions
of efi_runtime_init()"), we no longer map the EFI runtime services table
before calling SetVirtualAddressMap(), which means we don't need the 1:1
mapped physical address of this table, and so there is no point in passing
the address via EFI setup data on kexec boot.
Note that the kexec tools will still look for this address in sysfs, so
we still need to provide it.

Since commit 5f3d45e7f2 ("kvm/x86: add support for
MONITOR_TRAP_FLAG"), KVM has allowed an L1 guest to use the monitor trap
flag processor-based execution control for its L2 guest. KVM simply
forwards any MTF VM-exits to the L1 guest, which works for normal
instruction execution.
However, when KVM needs to emulate an instruction on the behalf of an L2
guest, the monitor trap flag is not emulated. Add the necessary logic to
kvm_skip_emulated_instruction() to synthesize an MTF VM-exit to L1 upon
instruction emulation for L2.

A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans
two cache lines. In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus
lock.
This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a
cache line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait
for the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can
complete). For real-time systems this may mean missing deadlines. For other
systems it may just be very annoying.
Some CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when a split lock is
attempted.
Provide a command line option to give the user choices on how to handle
this:
split_lock_detect=
off - not enabled (no traps for split locks)
warn - warn once when an application does a
split lock, but allow it to continue
running.
fatal - Send SIGBUS to applications that cause split lock
On systems that support split lock detection the default is "warn". Note
that if the kernel hits a split lock in any mode other than "off" it will
OOPs.
One implementation wrinkle is that the MSR to control the split lock
detection is per-core, not per thread. This might result in some short
lived races on HT systems in "warn" mode if Linux tries to enable on one
thread while disabling on the other. Race analysis by Sean Christopherson:
- Toggling of split-lock is only done in "warn" mode. Worst case
scenario of a race is that a misbehaving task will generate multiple
#AC exceptions on the same instruction. And this race will only occur
if both siblings are running tasks that generate split-lock #ACs, e.g.
a race where sibling threads are writing different values will only
occur if CPUx is disabling split-lock after an #AC and CPUy is
re-enabling split-lock after *its* previous task generated an #AC.
- Transitioning between off/warn/fatal modes at runtime isn't supported
and disabling is tracked per task, so hardware will always reach a steady
state that matches the configured mode. I.e. split-lock is guaranteed to
be enabled in hardware once all _TIF_SLD threads have been scheduled out.

Performance counter stats for 'true':

Simply set its enable bit - HWCR bit 30 - to make it start counting.
Enablement is restricted to all machines advertising IRPERF capability,
except those susceptible to an erratum that makes the IRPERF return
bad values.
That erratum occurs in Family 17h models 00-1fh [1], but not in F17h
models 20h and above [2].
AFTER (on a family 17h model 31h machine):

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.
X86 abuses the function which retrieves the architecture specific clock
mode storage to mark the clocksource as used in the VDSO. That's silly
because this is invoked on every tick when the VDSO data is updated.
Move this functionality to the clocksource::enable() callback so it gets
invoked once when the clocksource is installed. This allows to make the
clock mode storage generic.

- Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing which caused an

- Fix a long standing race in the affinity setting code which affects PCI
devices with non-maskable MSI interrupts. The problem is caused by the
non-atomic writes of the MSI address (destination APIC id) and data
(vector) fields which the device uses to construct the MSI message. The
non-atomic writes are mandated by PCI.
If both fields change and the device raises an interrupt after writing
address and before writing data, then the MSI block constructs a
inconsistent message which causes interrupts to be lost and subsequent
malfunction of the device.
The fix is to redirect the interrupt to the new vector on the current
CPU first and then switch it over to the new target CPU. This allows to
observe an eventually raised interrupt in the transitional stage (old
CPU, new vector) to be observed in the APIC IRR and retriggered on the
new target CPU and the new vector. The potential spurious interrupts
caused by this are harmless and can in the worst case expose a buggy
driver (all handlers have to be able to deal with spurious interrupts as
they can and do happen for various reasons).
- Add the missing suspend/resume mechanism for the HYPERV hypercall page

- Mask the IOAPIC before disabling the local APIC to prevent potentially

all vcpus in the VM have to operate in the same mode. Thus the
requesting vcpu must notify the others.
So, introduce the following:
* A new KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE request bit
* Interfaces to request all vcpus to update APICv status
* A new interface to update APICV-related parameters for each vcpu

There are several reasons in which a VM needs to deactivate APICv
e.g. disable APICv via parameter during module loading, or when
enable Hyper-V SynIC support. Additional inhibit reasons will be
introduced later on when dynamic APICv is supported,
Introduce KVM APICv inhibit reason bits along with a new variable,
apicv_inhibit_reasons, to help keep track of APICv state for each VM,
Initially, the APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_DISABLE bit is used to indicate
the case where APICv is disabled during KVM module load.
(e.g. insmod kvm_amd avic=0 or insmod kvm_intel enable_apicv=0).

walk_page_range() is going to be allowed to walk page tables other than
those of user space. For this it needs to know when it has reached a
'leaf' entry in the page tables. This information is provided by the
p?d_leaf() functions/macros.
For x86 we already have p?d_large() functions, so simply add macros to
provide the generic p?d_leaf() names for the generic code.

Evan tracked down a subtle race between the update of the MSI message and
the device raising an interrupt internally on PCI devices which do not
support MSI masking. The update of the MSI message is non-atomic and
consists of either 2 or 3 sequential 32bit wide writes to the PCI config
space.
- Write address low 32bits
- Write address high 32bits (If supported by device)
- Write data
When an interrupt is migrated then both address and data might change, so
the kernel attempts to mask the MSI interrupt first. But for MSI masking is
optional, so there exist devices which do not provide it. That means that
if the device raises an interrupt internally between the writes then a MSI
message is sent built from half updated state.
On x86 this can lead to spurious interrupts on the wrong interrupt
vector when the affinity setting changes both address and data. As a
consequence the device interrupt can be lost causing the device to
become stuck or malfunctioning.
Evan tried to handle that by disabling MSI accross an MSI message
update. That's not feasible because disabling MSI has issues on its own:
If MSI is disabled the PCI device is routing an interrupt to the legacy
INTx mechanism. The INTx delivery can be disabled, but the disablement is
not working on all devices.
Some devices lose interrupts when both MSI and INTx delivery are disabled.
Another way to solve this would be to enforce the allocation of the same
vector on all CPUs in the system for this kind of screwed devices. That
could be done, but it would bring back the vector space exhaustion problems
which got solved a few years ago.
Fortunately the high address (if supported by the device) is only relevant
when X2APIC is enabled which implies interrupt remapping. In the interrupt
remapping case the affinity setting is happening at the interrupt remapping
unit and the PCI MSI message is programmed only once when the PCI device is
initialized.
That makes it possible to solve it with a two step update:
1) Target the MSI msg to the new vector on the current target CPU
2) Target the MSI msg to the new vector on the new target CPU
In both cases writing the MSI message is only changing a single 32bit word
which prevents the issue of inconsistency.
After writing the final destination it is necessary to check whether the
device issued an interrupt while the intermediate state #1 (new vector,
current CPU) was in effect.
This is possible because the affinity change is always happening on the
current target CPU. The code runs with interrupts disabled, so the
interrupt can be detected by checking the IRR of the local APIC. If the
vector is pending in the IRR then the interrupt is retriggered on the new
target CPU by sending an IPI for the associated vector on the target CPU.
This can cause spurious interrupts on both the local and the new target
CPU.
1) If the new vector is not in use on the local CPU and the device
affected by the affinity change raised an interrupt during the
transitional state (step #1 above) then interrupt entry code will
ignore that spurious interrupt. The vector is marked so that the
'No irq handler for vector' warning is supressed once.
2) If the new vector is in use already on the local CPU then the IRR check
might see an pending interrupt from the device which is using this
vector. The IPI to the new target CPU will then invoke the handler of
the device, which got the affinity change, even if that device did not
issue an interrupt
3) If the new vector is in use already on the local CPU and the device
affected by the affinity change raised an interrupt during the
transitional state (step #1 above) then the handler of the device which
uses that vector on the local CPU will be invoked.
expose issues in device driver interrupt handlers which are not prepared to
handle a spurious interrupt correctly. This not a regression, it's just
exposing something which was already broken as spurious interrupts can
happen for a lot of reasons and all driver handlers need to be able to deal
with them.

From Boris Ostrovsky:
The KVM hypervisor may provide a guest with ability to defer remote TLB
flush when the remote VCPU is not running. When this feature is used,
the TLB flush will happen only when the remote VPCU is scheduled to run
again. This will avoid unnecessary (and expensive) IPIs.
Under certain circumstances, when a guest initiates such deferred action,
the hypervisor may miss the request. It is also possible that the guest
may mistakenly assume that it has already marked remote VCPU as needing
a flush when in fact that request had already been processed by the
hypervisor. In both cases this will result in an invalid translation
being present in a vCPU, potentially allowing accesses to memory locations
in that guest's address space that should not be accessible.
Note that only intra-guest memory is vulnerable.
The five patches address both of these problems:
1. The first patch makes sure the hypervisor doesn't accidentally clear
a guest's remote flush request
2. The rest of the patches prevent the race between hypervisor
acknowledging a remote flush request and guest issuing a new one.

Tony reported a boot regression caused by the recent workaround for systems
which have a disabled (clock gate off) PIT.
On his machine the kernel fails to initialize the PIT because
apic_needs_pit() does not take into account whether the local APIC
interrupt delivery mode will actually allow to setup and use the local
APIC timer. This should be easy to reproduce with acpi=off on the
command line which also disables HPET.
Due to the way the PIT/HPET and APIC setup ordering works (APIC setup can
require working PIT/HPET) the information is not available at the point
where apic_needs_pit() makes this decision.
To address this, split out the interrupt mode selection from
apic_intr_mode_init(), invoke the selection before making the decision
whether PIT is required or not, and add the missing checks into
apic_needs_pit().

On some platforms such as the Dell XPS 13 laptop the firmware disables turbo
when the machine is disconnected from AC, and viceversa it enables it again
when it's reconnected. In these cases a _PPC ACPI notification is issued.
The scheduler needs to know freq_max for frequency-invariant calculations.
To account for turbo availability to come and go, record freq_max at boot as
if turbo was available and store it in a helper variable. Use a setter
function to swap between freq_base and freq_max every time turbo goes off or on.

Implement arch_scale_freq_capacity() for 'modern' x86. This function
is used by the scheduler to correctly account usage in the face of
DVFS.
The present patch addresses Intel processors specifically and has positive
performance and performance-per-watt implications for the schedutil cpufreq
governor, bringing it closer to, if not on-par with, the powersave governor
from the intel_pstate driver/framework.
Large performance gains are obtained when the machine is lightly loaded and
no regression are observed at saturation. The benchmarks with the largest
gains are kernel compilation, tbench (the networking version of dbench) and
shell-intensive workloads.

| 1. FREQUENCY INVARIANCE: MOTIVATION
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
For example; suppose a CPU has two frequencies: 500 and 1000 Mhz. When
running a task that would consume 1/3rd of a CPU at 1000 MHz, it would
appear to consume 2/3rd (or 66.6%) when running at 500 MHz, giving the
false impression this CPU is almost at capacity, even though it can go
faster [*]. In a nutshell, without frequency scale-invariance tasks look
larger just because the CPU is running slower.
[*] (footnote: this assumes a linear frequency/performance relation; which
everybody knows to be false, but given realities its the best approximation
we can make.)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2. PECULIARITIES OF X86
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Accounting for frequency changes in PELT signals requires the computation of
the ratio freq_curr / freq_max. On x86 neither of those terms is readily
available.
2.1 CURRENT FREQUENCY
====================
Since modern x86 has hardware control over the actual frequency we run
at (because amongst other things, Turbo-Mode), we cannot simply use
the frequency as requested through cpufreq.
Instead we use the APERF/MPERF MSRs to compute the effective frequency
over the recent past. Also, because reading MSRs is expensive, don't
do so every time we need the value, but amortize the cost by doing it
every tick.
2.2 MAX FREQUENCY
=================
Obtaining freq_max is also non-trivial because at any time the hardware can
provide a frequency boost to a selected subset of cores if the package has
enough power to spare (eg: Turbo Boost). This means that the maximum frequency
available to a given core changes with time.
The approach taken in this change is to arbitrarily set freq_max to a constant
value at boot. The value chosen is the "4-cores (4C) turbo frequency" on most
microarchitectures, after evaluating the following candidates:
* 1-core (1C) turbo frequency (the fastest turbo state available)
* around base frequency (a.k.a. max P-state)
* something in between, such as 4C turbo
To interpret these options, consider that this is the denominator in
freq_curr/freq_max, and that ratio will be used to scale PELT signals such as
util_avg and load_avg. A large denominator will undershoot (util_avg looks a
bit smaller than it really is), viceversa with a smaller denominator PELT
signals will tend to overshoot. Given that PELT drives frequency selection
in the schedutil governor, we will have:
freq_max set to | effect on DVFS
--------------------+------------------
1C turbo | power efficiency (lower freq choices)
base freq | performance (higher util_avg, higher freq requests)
4C turbo | a bit of both
4C turbo proves to be a good compromise in a number of benchmarks (see below).
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 3. EFFECTS ON THE SCHEDUTIL FREQUENCY GOVERNOR
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Once an architecture implements a frequency scale-invariant utilization (the
PELT signal util_avg), schedutil switches its frequency selection formula from
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_curr * util [non-invariant util signal]
to
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * util [invariant util signal]
where, in the second formula, freq_max is set to the 1C turbo frequency (max
turbo). The advantage of the second formula, whose usage we unlock with this
patch, is that freq_next doesn't depend on the current frequency in an
iterative fashion, but can jump to any frequency in a single update. This
absence of feedback in the formula makes it quicker to react to utilization
changes and more robust against pathological instabilities.
Compare it to the update formula of intel_pstate/powersave:
freq_next = 1.25 * freq_max * Busy%
where again freq_max is 1C turbo and Busy% is the percentage of time not spent
idling (calculated with delta_MPERF / delta_TSC); essentially the same as
invariant schedutil, and largely responsible for intel_pstate/powersave good
reputation. The non-invariant schedutil formula is derived from the invariant
one by approximating util_inv with util_raw * freq_curr / freq_max, but this
has limitations.
Testing shows improved performances due to better frequency selections when
the machine is lightly loaded, and essentially no change in behaviour at
saturation / overutilization.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
It's been shown that it is possible to create pathological scenarios where a
CPU-bound task cannot reach max utilization, if the normalizing factor
freq_max is fixed to a constant value (see [Lelli-2018]).
If freq_max is set to 4C turbo as we do here, one needs to peg at least 5
cores in a package doing some busywork, and observe that none of those task
will ever reach max util (1024) because they're all running at less than the
4C turbo frequency.
While this concern still applies, we believe the performance benefit of
frequency scale-invariant PELT signals outweights the cost of this limitation.

5.2 SETUP
=========
* The baseline is Linux v5.2 with schedutil (non-invariant) and the intel_pstate
driver in passive mode.
* The rationale for choosing the various freq_max values to test have been to
try all the 1-2-3-4C turbo levels (note that 1C and 2C turbo are identical
on all machines), plus one more value closer to base_freq but still in the
turbo range (8C turbo for both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA).
* In addition we've run all tests with intel_pstate/powersave for comparison.
* The filesystem is always XFS, the userspace is openSUSE Leap 15.1.
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA is capable of HWP (Hardware-Managed P-States), so the runs
with active intel_pstate on this machine use that.
This gives, in terms of combinations tested on each machine:
* 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA
* Baseline: Linux v5.2, non-invariant schedutil, intel_pstate passive
* intel_pstate active + powersave + HWP
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 1C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 3C turbo
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 4C turbo
* both 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA
* [same as 8x-SKYLAKE-UMA, but no HWP capable]
* invariant schedutil, freq_max = 8C turbo
(which on 48x-HASWELL-NUMA is the same as 12C turbo, or "all cores turbo")
5.3 BENCHMARK RESULTS
=====================
5.3.1 NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
------------------------
Tests that didn't show any measurable difference in performance on any of the
test machines between non-invariant schedutil and our patch are:
* NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) using either MPI or openMP for IPC, any
computational kernel
* flexible I/O (FIO)
* hackbench (using threads or processes, and using pipes or sockets)
5.3.2 NON-NEUTRAL BENCHMARKS
----------------------------
What follow are summary tables where each benchmark result is given a score.
* A tilde (~) means a neutral result, i.e. no difference from baseline.
* Scores are computed with the ratio result_new / result_baseline, so a tilde
means a score of 1.00.
* The results in the score ratio are the geometric means of results running
the benchmark with different parameters (eg: for kernbench: using 1, 2, 4,
... number of processes; for pgbench: varying the number of clients, and so
on).
* The first three tables show higher-is-better kind of tests (i.e. measured in
operations/second), the subsequent three show lower-is-better kind of tests
(i.e. the workload is fixed and we measure elapsed time, think kernbench).
* "gitsource" is a name we made up for the test consisting in running the
entire unit tests suite of the Git SCM and measuring how long it takes. We
take it as a typical example of shell-intensive serialized workload.
* In the "I_PSTATE" column we have the results for intel_pstate/powersave. Other
columns show invariant schedutil for different values of freq_max. 4C turbo
is circled as it's the value we've chosen for the final implementation.

+------+
In the table above we see that active intel_pstate is slightly better than our
4C-turbo patch (both in reference to the baseline non-invariant schedutil) on
read-only pgbench and much better on tbench. Both cases are notable in which
it shows that lowering our freq_max (to 8C-turbo and 12C-turbo on
80x-BROADWELL-NUMA and 48x-HASWELL-NUMA respectively) helps invariant
schedutil to get closer.
If we ignore active intel_pstate and focus on the comparison with baseline
alone, there are several instances of double-digit performance improvement.
80x-BROADWELL-NUMA (comparison ratio; lower is better)

gitsource 0.97 0.69 0.69 | 0.69 | 0.69
+------+
dbench is not very remarkable here, unless we notice how poorly active
intel_pstate is performing on 80x-BROADWELL-NUMA: 23% regression versus
non-invariant schedutil. We repeated that run getting consistent results. Out
of scope for the patch at hand, but deserving future investigation. Other than
that, we previously ran this campaign with Linux v5.0 and saw the patch doing
better on dbench a the time. We haven't checked closely and can only speculate
at this point.
On the NUMA boxes kernbench gets 10-15% improvements on average; we'll see in
the detailed tables that the gains concentrate on low process counts (lightly
loaded machines).
The test we call "gitsource" (running the git unit test suite, a long-running
single-threaded shell script) appears rather spectacular in this table (gains
of 30-50% depending on the machine). It is to be noted, however, that
gitsource has no adjustable parameters (such as the number of jobs in
kernbench, which we average over in order to get a single-number summary
score) and is exactly the kind of low-parallelism workload that benefits the
most from this patch. When looking at the detailed tables of kernbench or
tbench4, at low process or client counts one can see similar numbers.

This is one of the cases where the patch still can't surpass active
intel_pstate, not even when freq_max is as low as 12C-turbo. Otherwise, gains are
visible up to 16 clients and the saturated scenario is the same as baseline.
The scores in the summary table from the previous sections are ratios of
geometric means of the results over different clients, as seen in this table.

The patch outperform active intel_pstate (and baseline) by a considerable
margin; the summary table from the previous section says 4C turbo and active
intel_pstate are 0.83 and 0.93 against baseline respectively, so 4C turbo is
0.83/0.93=0.89 against intel_pstate (~10% better on average). There is no
noticeable difference with regard to the value of freq_max.

intel_pstate/powersave by a whopping 40% margin.
5.3.4 POWER CONSUMPTION, PERFORMANCE-PER-WATT
---------------------------------------------
The following table shows average power consumption in watt for each
benchmark. Data comes from turbostat (package average), which in turn is read
from the RAPL interface on CPUs. We know the patch affects CPU frequencies so
it's reasonable to ignore other power consumers (such as memory or I/O). Also,
we don't have a power meter available in the lab so RAPL is the best we have.
turbostat sampled average power every 10 seconds for the entire duration of
each benchmark. We took all those values and averaged them (i.e. with don't
have detail on a per-parameter granularity, only on whole benchmarks).

A lower power consumption isn't necessarily better, it depends on what is done
with that energy. Here are tables with the ratio of performance-per-watt on
each machine and benchmark. Higher is always better; a tilde (~) means a
neutral ratio (i.e. 1.00).

+------+
These results are overall pleasing: in plenty of cases we observe
performance-per-watt improvements. The few regressions (read/write pgbench and
dbench on the Broadwell machine) are of small magnitude. kernbench loses a few
percentage points (it has a 10-15% performance improvement, but apparently the
increase in power consumption is larger than that). tbench4 and gitsource, which
benefit the most from the patch, keep a positive score in this table which is
a welcome surprise; that suggests that in those particular workloads the
non-invariant schedutil (and active intel_pstate, too) makes some rather
suboptimal frequency selections.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 6. MICROARCH'ES ADDRESSED HERE
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The patch addresses Xeon Core processors that use MSR_PLATFORM_INFO and
MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT to advertise their base frequency and turbo frequencies
respectively. This excludes the recent Xeon Scalable Performance processors
line (Xeon Gold, Platinum etc) whose MSRs have to be parsed differently.
Subsequent patches will address:
* Xeon Scalable Performance processors and Atom Goldmont/Goldmont Plus
* Xeon Phi (Knights Landing, Knights Mill)
* Atom Silvermont

- Time namespace support:
If a container migrates from one host to another then it expects that
clocks based on MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME are not subject to
disruption. Due to different boot time and non-suspended runtime these
clocks can differ significantly on two hosts, in the worst case time
goes backwards which is a violation of the POSIX requirements.
The time namespace addresses this problem. It allows to set offsets for
clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME once after creation and before tasks are
associated with the namespace. These offsets are taken into account by
timers and timekeeping including the VDSO.
Offsets for wall clock based clocks (REALTIME/TAI) are not provided by
this mechanism. While in theory possible, the overhead and code
complexity would be immense and not justified by the esoteric potential
use cases which were discussed at Plumbers '18.
The overhead for tasks in the root namespace (host time offsets = 0) is
in the noise and great effort was made to ensure that especially in the
VDSO. If time namespace is disabled in the kernel configuration the
code is compiled out.
Kudos to Andrei Vagin and Dmitry Sofanov who implemented this feature
and kept on for more than a year addressing review comments, finding
better solutions. A pleasant experience.
- Overhaul of the alarmtimer device dependency handling to ensure that
the init/suspend/resume ordering is correct.
- A new clocksource/event driver for Microchip PIT64
- Suspend/resume support for the Hyper-V clocksource
- The usual pile of fixes, updates and improvements mostly in the
driver code.

Add a helper, lookup_address_in_mm(), to traverse the page tables of a
given mm struct. KVM will use the helper to retrieve the host mapping
level, e.g. 4k vs. 2mb vs. 1gb, of a compound (or DAX-backed) page
without having to resort to implementation specific metadata. E.g. KVM
currently uses different logic for HugeTLB vs. THP, and would add a
third variant for DAX-backed files.

The helper x86_set_memory_region() is only used in vmx_set_tss_addr()
and kvm_arch_destroy_vm(). Push the lock upper in both cases. With
that, drop x86_set_memory_region().
This prepares to allow __x86_set_memory_region() to return a HVA
mapped, because the HVA will need to be protected by the lock too even
after __x86_set_memory_region() returns.

Current SVM implementation does not have support for handling PKU. Guests

Move allocation of VMX and SVM vcpus to common x86. Although the struct
being allocated is technically a VMX/SVM struct, it can be interpreted
directly as a 'struct kvm_vcpu' because of the pre-existing requirement
that 'struct kvm_vcpu' be located at offset zero of the arch/vendor vcpu
struct.
Remove the message from the build-time assertions regarding placement of
the struct, as compatibility with the arch usercopy region is no longer
the sole dependent on 'struct kvm_vcpu' being at offset zero.

With the introduction of MOVDIR64B instruction, there is now an instruction
that can write 64 bytes of data atomically.
Quoting from Intel SDM:
"There is no atomicity guarantee provided for the 64-byte load operation
from source address, and processor implementations may use multiple
load operations to read the 64-bytes. The 64-byte direct-store issued
by MOVDIR64B guarantees 64-byte write-completion atomicity. This means
that the data arrives at the destination in a single undivided 64-byte
write transaction."
We have identified at least 3 different use cases for this instruction in
the format of func(dst, src, count):
1) Clear poison / Initialize MKTME memory
@dst is normal memory.
@src in normal memory. Does not increment. (Copy same line to all
targets)
@count (to clear/init multiple lines)
2) Submit command(s) to new devices
@dst is a special MMIO region for a device. Does not increment.
@src is normal memory. Increments.
@count usually is 1, but can be multiple.
3) Copy to iomem in big chunks
@dst is iomem and increments
@src in normal memory and increments
@count is number of chunks to copy
Add support for case #2 to support device that will accept commands via
this instruction. We provide a @count in order to submit a batch of
preprogrammed descriptors in virtually contiguous memory. This
allows the caller to submit multiple descriptors to a device with a single
submission. The special device requires the entire 64bytes descriptor to
be written atomically and will accept MOVDIR64B instruction.

Add feature-specific helpers for querying guest CPUID support from the
emulator instead of having the emulator do a full CPUID and perform its
own bit tests. The primary motivation is to eliminate the emulator's
usage of bit() so that future patches can add more extensive build-time
assertions on the usage of bit() without having to expose yet more code
to the emulator.
Note, providing a generic guest_cpuid_has() to the emulator doesn't work
due to the existing built-time assertions in guest_cpuid_has(), which
require the feature being checked to be a compile-time constant.
No functional change intended.

ICR and TSCDEADLINE MSRs write cause the main MSRs write vmexits in our
product observation, multicast IPIs are not as common as unicast IPI like
RESCHEDULE_VECTOR and CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE_VECTOR etc.
This patch introduce a mechanism to handle certain performance-critical
WRMSRs in a very early stage of KVM VMExit handler.
This mechanism is specifically used for accelerating writes to x2APIC ICR
that attempt to send a virtual IPI with physical destination-mode, fixed
delivery-mode and single target. Which was found as one of the main causes
of VMExits for Linux workloads.
The reason this mechanism significantly reduce the latency of such virtual
IPIs is by sending the physical IPI to the target vCPU in a very early stage
of KVM VMExit handler, before host interrupts are enabled and before expensive
operations such as reacquiring KVM’s SRCU lock.
Latency is reduced even more when KVM is able to use APICv posted-interrupt
mechanism (which allows to deliver the virtual IPI directly to target vCPU
without the need to kick it to host).
Testing on Xeon Skylake server:
The virtual IPI latency from sender send to receiver receive reduces
more than 200+ cpu cycles.

We carry a quirk in the x86 EFI code to switch back to an older
method of mapping the EFI runtime services memory regions, because
it was deemed risky at the time to implement a new method without
providing a fallback to the old method in case problems arose.
Such problems did arise, but they appear to be limited to SGI UV1
machines, and so these are the only ones for which the fallback gets
enabled automatically (via a DMI quirk). The fallback can be enabled
manually as well, by passing efi=old_map, but there is very little
evidence that suggests that this is something that is being relied
upon in the field.
Given that UV1 support is not enabled by default by the distros
(Ubuntu, Fedora), there is no point in carrying this fallback code
all the time if there are no other users. So let's move it into the
UV support code, and document that efi=old_map now requires this
support code to be enabled.
Note that efi=old_map has been used in the past on other SGI UV
machines to work around kernel regressions in production, so we
keep the option to enable it by hand, but only if the kernel was
built with UV support.

Reshuffle the x86 stub code a bit so that we can tag the efi_is_64bit()
function with the 'const' attribute, which permits the compiler to
optimize away any redundant calls. Since we have two different entry
points for 32 and 64 bit firmware in the startup code, this also
simplifies the C code since we'll enter it with the efi_is64 variable
already set.

To support time namespaces in the VDSO with a minimal impact on regular non
time namespace affected tasks, the namespace handling needs to be hidden in
a slow path.
The most obvious place is vdso_seq_begin(). If a task belongs to a time
namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide VDSO data is
replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the
VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path
and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time
namespace handling path.
The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.
If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.
Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages and place vdso_data on
it. Provide __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the
code-relative position of VVARs on that special page.
