Enable/disable newly documented SMEP (Supervisor Mode Execution Protection) CPU
feature in kernel. CR4.SMEP (bit 20) is 0 at power-on. If the feature is
supported by CPU (X86_FEATURE_SMEP), enable SMEP by setting CR4.SMEP. New kernel
option nosmep disables the feature even if the feature is supported by CPU.
[ hpa: moved the call to setup_smep() until after the vendor-specific
initialization; that ensures that CPUID features are unmasked. We
will still run it before we have userspace (never mind uncontrolled
userspace). ]

It is more effective to use a segment prefix instead of calculating the
address of the current cpu area amd then testing flags.

The default notifier doesn't make a lot of sense to call in the
correctable errors case. Drop it and emit the mcelog decoding
hint only in the uncorrectable errors case and when no notifier
is registered. Also, limit issuing the "mcelog --ascii" message
in the rare case when we dump unreported CEs before panicking.
While at it, remove unused old x86_mce_decode_callback from the
header.

Correctable errors are considered something rather normal on
modern hardware these days. Even more importantly, correctable
errors mean exactly that - they've been corrected by the
hardware - and there's no need to taint the kernel since
execution hasn't been compromised so far.
Also, drop tainting in the thermal throttling code for a similar
reason: crossing a thermal threshold does not mean corruption.

Steppings A1 and B0 of Celeron Covington are currently misdetected as
Pentium II (Dixon). Fix it by removing the stepping check.
[ hpa: this fixes this specific bug... the CPUID documentation
specifies that the L2 cache size can disambiguate additional CPUs;
this patch does not fix that. ]

We provide two slots to disable cache indices, and have a check to
prevent both slots to be used for the same index.
If the user disables the same index on different subcaches, both slots
will hold the same index, e.g.
$ echo 2047 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/cache_disable_0
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/cache_disable_0
2047
$ echo 1050623 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/cache_disable_1
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/cache_disable_1
2047
due to the fact that the check was looking only at index bits [11:0]
and was ignoring writes to bits outside that range. The more correct
fix is to simply check whether the index is within the bounds of
[0..l3->indices].
While at it, cleanup comments and drop now-unused local macros.

Currently the option resides under X86_EXTENDED_PLATFORM due to historical
nonstandard A20M# handling. However that is no longer the case and so Elan can
be treated as part of the standard processor choice Kconfig option.

CPUID leaf 7, subleaf 0 returns the maximum subleaf in EAX, not the
number of subleaves. Since so far only subleaf 0 is defined (and only
the EBX bitfield) we do not need to qualify the test.

Add two generic hardware events: front-end and back-end stalled cycles.
These events measure conditions when the CPU is executing code but its
capabilities are not fully utilized. Understanding such situations and
analyzing them is an important sub-task of code optimization workflows.
Both events limit performance: most front end stalls tend to be caused
by branch misprediction or instruction fetch cachemisses, backend
stalls can be caused by various resource shortages or inefficient
instruction scheduling.
Front-end stalls are the more important ones: code cannot run fast
if the instruction stream is not being kept up.
An over-utilized back-end can cause front-end stalls and thus
has to be kept an eye on as well.
The exact composition is very program logic and instruction mix
dependent.
We use the terms 'stall', 'front-end' and 'back-end' loosely and
try to use the best available events from specific CPUs that
approximate these concepts.

Use the UOPS_EXECUTED.*,c=1,i=1 event on Intel CPUs - it is a rather
good indicator of CPU execution stalls, more sensitive and more inclusive
than the 0xa2 resource stalls event (which does not count nearly as many
stall types).

With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages
also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for
debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step,
remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call
to the generic pr_debug() function.
How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled.
To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and
$ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during
boot, append
ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p"
as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.

Trying to enable the local APIC timer on early K8 revisions
uncovers a number of other issues with it, in conjunction with
the C1E enter path on AMD. Fixing those causes much more churn
and troubles than the benefit of using that timer brings so
don't enable it on K8 at all, falling back to the original
functionality the kernel had wrt to that.

This reverts commit e20a2d205c05cef6b5783df339a7d54adeb50962, as it crashes
certain boxes with specific AMD CPU models.
Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate
earlier K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply
not worth to fix properly by tweaking the errata checking
framework:
* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831
* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E
idle routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in
deeper C-states:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20
Therefore, leave the original boundary starting with K8-revF.

This patch fixes a bug reported by a customer, who found
that many unreasonable error interrupts reported on all
non-boot CPUs (APs) during the system boot stage.
According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual
Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when
an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under
FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether
the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These
errors are seen as error interrupts.
The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads
0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI
sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for
the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI.
When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt,
the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required
from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register
programmed as such as well.
This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling
interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to
0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will
signal illegal vector error interrupts.
This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before
restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.

The Intel Nehalem offcore bits implemented in:
e994d7d23a0b: perf: Fix LLC-* events on Intel Nehalem/Westmere
... are wrong: they implemented _ACCESS as _HIT and counted OTHER_CORE_HIT* as
MISS even though its clearly documented as an L3 hit ...
Fix them and the Westmere definitions as well.

Older AMD K8 processors (Revisions A-E) are affected by erratum
400 (APIC timer interrupts don't occur in C states greater than
C1). This, for example, means that X86_FEATURE_ARAT flag should
not be set for these parts.
This addresses regression introduced by commit
b87cf80af3ba4b4c008b4face3c68d604e1715c6 ("x86, AMD: Set ARAT
feature on AMD processors") where the system may become
unresponsive until external interrupt (such as keyboard input)
occurs. This results, for example, in time not being reported
correctly, lack of progress on the system and other lockups.

It was noticed that P4 machines were generating double NMIs for
each perf event. These extra NMIs lead to 'Dazed and confused'
messages on the screen.
I tracked this down to a P4 quirk that said the overflow bit had
to be cleared before re-enabling the apic LVT mask. My first
attempt was to move the un-masking inside the perf nmi handler
from before the chipset NMI handler to after.
This broke Nehalem boxes that seem to like the unmasking before
the counters themselves are re-enabled.
In order to keep this change simple for 2.6.39, I decided to
just simply move the apic LVT un-masking to the beginning of all
the chipset NMI handlers, with the exception of Pentium4's to
fix the double NMI issue.
Later on we can move the un-masking to later in the handlers to
save a number of 'extra' NMIs on those particular chipsets.
I tested this change on a P4 machine, an AMD machine, a Nehalem
box, and a core2quad box. 'perf top' worked correctly along
with various other small 'perf record' runs. Anything high
stress breaks all the machines but that is a different problem.
Thanks to various people for testing different versions of this
patch.

On Nehalem CPUs the retired branch-misses event can be completely bogus,
when there are no branch-misses occuring. When there are a lot of branch
misses then the count is pretty accurate. Still, this leaves us with an
event that over-counts a lot.
Detect this erratum and work it around by using BR_MISP_EXEC.ANY events.
These will also count speculated branches but still it's a lot more
precise in practice than the architectural event.

Currently the x86 backend incorrectly assumes that any BRANCH_INSN
with sample_period==1 is a BTS request. This is not true when we do
frequency driven profiling such as 'perf record -e branches'.
Solves this error:
$ perf record -e branches ./array
Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 95 (Operation not supported).

Change the Nehalem cache events to use retired memory instruction counters
(similar to Westmere), this greatly improves the provided stats.
Using:
main ()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 1000000000; i++) {
asm("mov (%%rsp), %%rbx;"
"mov %%rbx, (%%rsp);" : : : "rbx");
}
}
We find:
$ perf stat --repeat 10 -e instructions:u -e l1-dcache-loads:u -e l1-dcache-stores:u ./loop_1b_loads+stores
Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_loads+stores' (10 runs):
4,000,081,056 instructions:u # 0.000 IPC ( +- 0.000% )
4,999,502,846 l1-dcache-loads:u ( +- 0.008% )
1,000,034,832 l1-dcache-stores:u ( +- 0.000% )
1.565184942 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.005% )
The 5b is surprising - we'd expect 1b:
$ perf stat --repeat 10 -e instructions:u -e r10b:u -e l1-dcache-stores:u ./loop_1b_loads+stores
Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_loads+stores' (10 runs):
4,000,081,054 instructions:u # 0.000 IPC ( +- 0.000% )
1,000,021,961 r10b:u ( +- 0.000% )
1,000,030,951 l1-dcache-stores:u ( +- 0.000% )
1.565055422 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.003% )
Which this patch thus fixes.
