* clocksource: Resolve cpu hotplug dead lock with TSC unstableThomas Gleixner2009-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Martin Schwidefsky analyzed it: To register a clocksource the clocksource_mutex is acquired and if necessary timekeeping_notify is called to install the clocksource as the timekeeper clock. timekeeping_notify uses stop_machine which needs to take cpu_add_remove_lock mutex. Starting a new cpu is done with the cpu_add_remove_lock mutex held. native_cpu_up checks the tsc of the new cpu and if the tsc is no good clocksource_change_rating is called. Which needs the clocksource_mutex and the deadlock is complete. The solution is to replace the TSC via the clocksource watchdog mechanism. Mark the TSC as unstable and schedule the watchdog work so it gets removed in the watchdog thread context.

* time: Introduce CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSEjohn stultz2009-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After talking with some application writers who want very fast, but not fine-grained timestamps, I decided to try to implement new clock_ids to clock_gettime(): CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE which returns the time at the last tick. This is very fast as we don't have to access any hardware (which can be very painful if you're using something like the acpi_pm clocksource), and we can even use the vdso clock_gettime() method to avoid the syscall. The only trade off is you only get low-res tick grained time resolution. This isn't a new idea, I know Ingo has a patch in the -rt tree that made the vsyscall gettimeofday() return coarse grained time when the vsyscall64 sysctrl was set to 2. However this affects all applications on a system. With this method, applications can choose the proper speed/granularity trade-off for themselves.

* x86: Do not unregister PIT clocksource on PIT oneshot setup/shutdownThomas Gleixner2009-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This basically reverts commit 1a0c009ac (x86: unregister PIT clocksource when PIT is disabled) because the problem which was tried to address with that patch has been solved by commit 3f68535ada (clocksource: sanity check sysfs clocksource changes). The problem addressed by the original patch is that PIT could be selected as clocksource after the system switched the PIT off or set the PIT into one shot mode which would result in complete timekeeping wreckage. Now with the sysfs sanity check in place PIT cannot be selected again when the system is in oneshot mode. The system will not switch to one shot mode as long as PIT is installed because PIT is not suitable for one shot. The shutdown case which happens when the lapic timer is installed is covered by the fact that init_pit_clocksource() is called after the lapic timer take over and then does not install the PIT clocksource at all. We should have done the sanity checks back then, but ... This also solves the locking problem which was reported vs. the clocksource rework.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add struct timekeeper to keep the internal values timekeeping.c needs in regard to the currently selected clock source. This moves the timekeeping intervals, xtime_nsec and the ntp error value from struct clocksource to struct timekeeper. The raw_time is removed from the clocksource as well. It gets treated like xtime as a global variable. Eventually xtime raw_time should be moved to struct timekeeper.

* clocksource: Cleanup clocksource selectionMartin Schwidefsky2009-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a non high-resolution clocksource is first set as override clock and then registered it becomes active even if the system is in one-shot mode. Move the override check from sysfs_override_clocksource to the clocksource selection. That fixes the bug and simplifies the code. The check in clocksource_register for double registration of the same clocksource is removed without replacement. To find the initial clocksource a new weak function in jiffies.c is defined that returns the jiffies clocksource. The architecture code can then override the weak function with a more suitable clocksource, e.g. the TOD clock on s390.

* timekeeping: Move reset of cycle_last for tsc clocksource to tscMartin Schwidefsky2009-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | change_clocksource resets the cycle_last value to zero then sets it to a value read from the clocksource. The reset to zero is required only for the TSC clocksource to make the read_tsc function work after a resume. The reason is that the TSC read function uses cycle_last to detect backwards going TSCs. In the resume case cycle_last contains the TSC value from the last update before the suspend. On resume the TSC starts counting from 0 again and would trip over the cycle_last comparison. This is subtle and surprising. Move the reset to a resume function in the tsc code.

( Passing 'lapic' on the boot line will allow hardware sampling to occur - but if the APIC is disabled permanently by the hardware then this fallback still allows more systems to use perfcounters. ) Also decouple perfcounter support from X86_LOCAL_APIC. -v2: fix typo breaking counters on all other systems ...

Starting from 4.4.0, -mtune=merced is deprecated. Even implemented in versions between 3.4.0 and 4.3.3, the -mtune=merced feature has been broken in some of the versions. For example, GCC 4.1.2 reports interanl tuning function errors during kernel building with -mtune=merced. Or GCC Bugzilla 16130 reports another -mtune=merced issue on GCC 3.4.1. So I would remove the -mtune=merced from IA64 kernel build. Without this option, kernel on Merced will remain the same except losing an unstable and out-of-date performance tunning feature. Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The -mtune=mckinley option functions the same as mtune=itanium2. And mtune=itanium2 is the default option. So we don't need to add mtune=mckinley either since its been the default option in any GCC version which implements this option. Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>

| * | perf_counter/powerpc: Fix oops on cpus without perf_counter hardware supportPaul Mackerras2009-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we have the powerpc perf_counter backend compiled in, but the cpu we are running on is one where we don't support the PMU, we currently oops in hw_perf_group_sched_in if we try to use any counters, because ppmu is NULL in that case, and we unconditionally dereference ppmu. This fixes the problem by adding a check if ppmu is NULL at the beginning of hw_perf_group_sched_in, and also at the beginning of the other functions that get called from the perf_counter core, i.e. hw_perf_disable, hw_perf_enable, and hw_perf_counter_setup.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case: | pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case | in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong | CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success | section. I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle counter was read without proper serialization. The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since _inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration. So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized. In other words: - I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last iteration, rather than in every iteration - I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read. Here's a suggested replacement.

There are two options to fix the problem: o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->wq and remove vcpu->arch.local_int.wq o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->arch.local_int.wq This patch chooses the 2nd variant for two reasons: o s390 does not use kvm_vcpu_block but implements its own enabled wait handling. Having a separate wait_queue make it clear, that our wait mechanism is different o the patch is much smaller Report-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The check for vcpu.cpu in pre_svm_run is meaningless since svm_vcpu_load already updated it on schedule in. Such vcpu will VMRUN with stale TLB entries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far, KVM copied the emulated_msrs (only MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE) to a wrong address in user space due to broken pointer arithmetic. This caused subtle corruption up there (missing MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE had probably no practical relevance). Moreover, the size check for the user-provided kvm_msr_list forgot about emulated MSRs.
