* Add hrtimer_start_on() supportBjoern Brandenburg2015-08-09
| | | | | | This patch adds hrtimer_start_on(), which allows arming timers on remote CPUs. This is needed to avoided timer interrupts on "shielded" CPUs and is also useful for implementing semi-partitioned schedulers.
* Feather-Trace: add x86 binary rewriting implementationBjoern Brandenburg2015-08-09
| | | | | This patch adds the x86-specific implementation of Feather-Trace triggers that works by rewriting jump instructions.
* KVM: x86: make vapics_in_nmi_mode atomicRadim Krčmář2015-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 42720138b06301cc8a7ee8a495a6d021c4b6a9bc upstream. Writes were a bit racy, but hard to turn into a bug at the same time. (Particularly because modern Linux doesn't use this feature anymore.)

* x86/asm/irq: Stop relying on magic JMP behavior for early_idt_handlersAndy Lutomirski2015-06-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The early_idt_handlers asm code generates an array of entry points spaced nine bytes apart. It's not really clear from that code or from the places that reference it what's going on, and the code only works in the first place because GAS never generates two-byte JMP instructions when jumping to global labels. Clean up the code to generate the correct array stride (member size) explicitly. This should be considerably more robust against screw-ups, as GAS will warn if a .fill directive has a negative count. Using '. =' to advance would have been even more robust (it would generate an actual error if it tried to move backwards), but it would pad with nulls, confusing anyone who tries to disassemble the code. The new scheme should be much clearer to future readers. While we're at it, improve the comments and rename the array and common code. Binutils may start relaxing jumps to non-weak labels. If so, this change will fix our build, and we may need to backport this change.

This breaks Xen PV guests who do not want to load SS with__KERNEL_DS. Since the problem that the commit is trying to address would have to be fixed in the hypervisor (if it in fact exists under Xen) there is no reason to set X86_BUG_SYSRET_SS_ATTRS flag for PV VPCUs here. This can be easily achieved by adding x86_hyper_xen_hvm.set_cpu_features op which will clear this flag. (And since this structure is no longer HVM-specific we should do some renaming).

Currently, the code that checks whether there are any waiters rely on tail value being greater than head. However, this is not true if tail reaches the max value and wraps back to zero, so arch_spin_is_contended() incorrectly returns 0 (not contended) when tail is smaller than head. The original code (before regression) handled this case by casting the (tail - head) to an unsigned value. This change simply restores that behavior.

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca17c54817cf814b4b5aa60478c6df27 and 80f7fdb1c7f0f9266421f823964fd1962681f6ce. The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare that it's mostly theoretical. As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task migration notifier. Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used. Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL. This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.

This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection.

It includes the new values to track CQM resources to the cpuinfo_x86 structure, plus the CPUID detection routines for CQM. CQM allows a process, or set of processes, to be tracked by the CPU to determine the cache usage of that task group. Using this data from the CPU, software can be written to extract this data and report cache usage and occupancy for a particular process, or group of processes. More information about Cache QoS Monitoring can be found in the Intel (R) x86 Architecture Software Developer Manual, section 17.14.

Among other things, this change avoids calling scheduler code using RCU from an offline CPU that RCU is ignoring. It also allows Xen to notice at online time that the CPU did not go offline correctly. Note that Xen has the surviving CPU carry out some cleanup operations, so if the surviving CPU times out, these cleanup operations might have been carried out while the outgoing CPU was still running. It might therefore be unwise to bring this CPU back online, and this commit avoids doing so. Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Yes, we have to admit, it is fragile and error prone. So let's simplify it. The simpler logic is: now, after we enter storm mode, we go straight to polling with CMCI_STORM_INTERVAL, i.e. once a second. We remain in storm mode as long as we see errors being logged while polling. Theoretically, if we see an uninterrupted error stream, we will remain in storm mode indefinitely and keep polling the MSRs. However, when the storm is actually a burst of errors, once we have logged them all, we back out of it after ~5 mins of polling and no more errors logged. If we encounter an error during those 5 minutes, we reset the polling interval to 5 mins. Making machine_check_poll() return a bool and denoting whether it has seen an error or not lets us simplify a bunch of code and move the storm handling private to mce_intel.c. Some minor cleanups while at it.

For details, see: dfb09f9b7ab0 ("x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family 15h") This special case reduces the mmapped file's entropy by 3 bits. The following output is the run on an AMD Opteron 62xx class CPU processor under x86_64 Linux 4.0.0: $ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep "r-xp.*libc" ; done b7588000-b7736000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 b7570000-b771e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 b75d0000-b777e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 b75b0000-b775e000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 b7578000-b7726000 r-xp 00000000 00:01 4924 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 ... Bits [12:14] are always 0, i.e. the address always ends in 0x8000 or 0x0000. 32-bit systems, as in the example above, are especially sensitive to this issue because 32-bit randomness for VA space is 8 bits (see mmap_rnd()). With the Bulldozer special case, this diminishes to only 32 different slots of mmap virtual addresses. This patch randomizes per boot the three affected bits rather than setting them to zero. Since all the shared pages have the same value at bits [12..14], there is no cache aliasing problems. This value gets generated during system boot and it is thus not known to a potential remote attacker. Therefore, the impact from the Bulldozer workaround gets diminished and ASLR randomness increased.
