The latter is intended for newer errata that have an OSVW id assigned, which it takes as first argument. Both take a variable number of family-specific model-stepping ranges created by AMD_MODEL_RANGE(). Iff an erratum has an OSVW id, OSVW is available on the CPU, and the OSVW id is known to the hardware, it is used to determine whether an erratum is present. Otherwise, the model-stepping ranges are matched against the current CPU to find out whether the erratum applies. For certain special errata, the code using this framework might have to conduct further checks to make sure an erratum is really (not) present.

So if an arch, that has the previous and the new nmi watchdog implementations cohabiting, wants to know if the generic one is in use, CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR is not a reliable check. We need to use CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR instead.

This is fine on x86 as PERF_EVENTS is builtin but if other archs select it, they will need to handle the PERF_EVENTS dependency. Instead, handle the dependency in the generic layer: - archs need to tell what they support through HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - Enable magically PERF_EVENTS_NMI if we have PERF_EVENTS and HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI.

Using Ingo's suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file: kernel/watchdog.c. Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every 60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups. To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event overflow event. If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is most likely in trouble. To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires. If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the warning is printed to the console. I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths work. V2: - cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination - surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem - re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space - added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases - removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events V3: - comment cleanups - drop support for older softlockup code - per_cpu cleanups - completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector - use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection - #ifdef cleanups - rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR - documentation additions V4: - documentation fixes - convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var - powerpc compile fixes V5: - split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups TODO: - figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period [fweisbec: merged conflict patch] Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> LKML-Reference: <1273266711-18706-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

The implementation is simple, just create an in-kernel perf event and register an overflow handler to check for cpu lockups. I created a generic implementation that lives in kernel/ and the hardware specific part that for now lives in arch/x86. This approach has a number of advantages: - It simplifies the x86 PMU implementation in the long run, in that it removes the hardcoded low-level PMU implementation that was the NMI watchdog before. - It allows new NMI watchdog features to be added in a central place. - It allows other architectures to enable the NMI watchdog, as long as they have perf events (that provide NMIs) implemented. - It also allows for more graceful co-existence of existing perf events apps and the NMI watchdog - before these changes the relationship was exclusive. (The NMI watchdog will 'spend' a perf event when enabled. In later iterations we might be able to piggyback from an existing NMI event without having to allocate a hardware event for the NMI watchdog - turning this into a no-hardware-cost feature.) As for compatibility, we'll keep the old NMI watchdog code as well until the new one can 100% replace it on all CPUs, old and new alike. That might take some time as the NMI watchdog has been ported to many CPU models. I have done light testing to make sure the framework works correctly and it does. v2: Set the correct timeout values based on the old nmi watchdog Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: gorcunov@gmail.com Cc: aris@redhat.com Cc: peterz@infradead.org LKML-Reference: <1265424425-31562-3-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This lets me easily swap out the old nmi_watchdog with the new one with just a config change. The change probably makes sense from a high level perspective because the nmi_watchdog shouldn't be handling notify_die routines anyway. However, this move does change the semantics a little bit. Instead of checking on every nmi interrupt if the cpus are stuck, only check them on the nmi_watchdog interrupts. v2: Move notify_die call into #idef block Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: gorcunov@gmail.com Cc: aris@redhat.com Cc: peterz@infradead.org LKML-Reference: <1265424425-31562-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers. trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend on each other. -> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu which gets switched automatically fixes this. Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch: - Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names) - Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id - Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Cc: davej@codemonkey.org.uk Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Acked-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Tested-by: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

These bits represent Replay Event mertic enumerated in enum P4_PEBS_METRIC. The caller should not care about which exact bits should be set and how -- the caller just chooses one P4_PEBS_METRIC entity and puts it into the config. The kernel will track it and set appropriate additional MSR registers (metrics) when needed. The reason for this redesign was the PEBS enable bit, which should not be set until DS (and PEBS sampling) support will be implemented properly. TODO ==== - PEBS sampling (note it's tricky and works with _one_ counter only so for HT machines it will be not that easy to handle both threads) - tracking of PEBS registers state, a user might need to turn PEBS off completely (ie no PEBS enable, no UOP_tag) but some other event may need it, such events clashes and should not run simultaneously, at moment we just don't support such events - eventually export user space bits in separate header which will allow user apps to configure raw events more conveniently.

Without this fix, resume_execution() can't handle instructions which have non-REX prefixes (REX prefixes are skipped). This will cause unexpected kernel panic by hitting bad address when a kprobe hits on two-byte ret (e.g. "repz ret" generated for Athlon/K8 optimization), because it just checks "repz" and can't recognize the "ret" instruction. These prefixes can be found easily with x86 instruction attribute. This patch introduces skip_prefixes() and uses it in resume_execution() and is_IF_modifier() to skip prefixes.

This naturally bring to a breakpoint recursion. To solve this, x86 has the Resume Bit trick. When the cpu flags have the RF flag set, the next instruction won't trigger any instruction breakpoint, and once this instruction is executed, RF is cleared back. This let's us jump back to the instruction that triggered the breakpoint without recursion. Use this when an instruction breakpoint triggers.
