Commit:
a33d331761bc ("x86/CPU/AMD: Fix Bulldozer topology")
restored the initial approach we had with the Fam15h topology of
enumerating CU (Compute Unit) threads as cores. And this is still
correct - they're beefier than HT threads but still have some
shared functionality.
Our current approach has a problem with the Mad Max Steam game, for
example. Yves Dionne reported a certain "choppiness" while playing on
v4.9.5.
That problem stems most likely from the fact that the CU threads share
resources within one CU and when we schedule to a thread of a different
compute unit, this incurs latency due to migrating the working set to a
different CU through the caches.
When the thread siblings mask mirrors that aspect of the CUs and
threads, the scheduler pays attention to it and tries to schedule within
one CU first. Which takes care of the latency, of course.

Aside from being excessively slow, CPUID is problematic: Linux runs
on a handful of CPUs that don't have CPUID. Use IRET-to-self
instead. IRET-to-self works everywhere, so it makes testing easy.
For reference, On my laptop, IRET-to-self is ~110ns,
CPUID(eax=1, ecx=0) is ~83ns on native and very very slow under KVM,
and MOV-to-CR2 is ~42ns.
While we're at it: sync_core() serves a very specific purpose.
Document it.

We support various non-Intel CPUs that don't have the CPUID
instruction, so the M486 test was wrong. For now, fix it with a big
hammer: handle missing CPUID on all 32-bit CPUs.

Reorganize the E400 detection now that we have everything in place:
switch the CPUs to broadcast mode after the LAPIC has been initialized
and remove the facilities that were used previously on the idle path.
Unfortunately static_cpu_has_bug() cannpt be used in the E400 idle routine
because alternatives have been applied when the actual detection happens,
so the static switching does not take effect and the test will stay
false. Use boot_cpu_has_bug() instead which is definitely an improvement
over the RDMSR and the cpumask handling.

Sparse populated CPUID leafs are collected in a software provided leaf to
avoid bloat of the x86_capability array, but there is no way to rebuild the
real leafs (e.g. for KVM CPUID enumeration) other than rereading the CPUID
leaf from the CPU. While this is possible it is problematic as it does not
take software disabled features into account. If a feature is disabled on
the host it should not be exposed to a guest either.
Add get_scattered_cpuid_leaf() which rebuilds the leaf from the scattered
cpuid table information and the active CPU features.

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

thread_saved_pc() was using a completely bogus method to get the return
address. Since switch_to() was previously inlined, there was no sane way
to know where on the stack the return address was stored. Now with the
frame of a sleeping thread well defined, this can be implemented correctly.

Move the low-level context switch code to an out-of-line asm stub instead of
using complex inline asm. This allows constructing a new stack frame for the
child process to make it seamlessly flow to ret_from_fork without an extra
test and branch in __switch_to(). It also improves code generation for
__schedule() by using the C calling convention instead of clobbering all
registers.

The kernel xstate area can be in standard or compacted format;
it is always in standard format for user mode. When XSAVES is
enabled, the kernel uses the compacted format and it is necessary
to use a separate fpu_user_xstate_size for signal/ptrace frames.

Unlike ds and es, these are base addresses, not selectors. Rename
them so their meaning is more obvious.
On x86_32, the field is still called fs. Fixing that could make sense
as a future cleanup.

x86 semantics by the previous patches we can remove the unused

We have 4 types of x86 platforms that disable RTC:
* Intel MID
* Lguest - uses paravirt
* Xen dom-U - uses paravirt
* x86 on legacy systems annotated with an ACPI legacy flag
We can consolidate all of these into a platform specific legacy
quirk set early in boot through i386_start_kernel() and through
x86_64_start_reservations(). This deals with the RTC quirks which
we can rely on through the hardware subarch, the ACPI check can
be dealt with separately.
For Xen things are bit more complex given that the @X86_SUBARCH_XEN
x86_hardware_subarch is shared on for Xen which uses the PV path for
both domU and dom0. Since the semantics for differentiating between
the two are Xen specific we provide a platform helper to help override
default legacy features -- x86_platform.set_legacy_features(). Use
of this helper is highly discouraged, its only purpose should be
to account for the lack of semantics available within your given
x86_hardware_subarch.
As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as
follows:
TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks()
+70 +62 +62 +43
Only 8 bytes overhead total, as the main increase in size is
all removed via __init.

The first instruction of the SYSENTER entry runs on its own tiny
stack. That stack can be used if a #DB or NMI is delivered before
the SYSENTER prologue switches to a real stack.
We have code in place to prevent us from overflowing the tiny stack.
For added paranoia, add a canary to the stack and check it in
do_debug() -- that way, if something goes wrong with the #DB logic,
we'll eventually notice.

For per package oriented services we must be able to rely on the number of CPU
packages to be within bounds. Create a tracking facility, which
- calculates the number of possible packages depending on nr_cpu_ids after boot
- makes sure that the package id is within the number of possible packages. If
the apic id is outside we map it to a logical package id if there is enough
space available.
Provide interfaces for drivers to query the mapping and do translations from
physcial to logical ids.

thread_saved_pc() reads stack of a potentially running task.
This can cause false KASAN stack-out-of-bounds reports,
because the running task concurrently poisons and unpoisons
own stack.
The same happens in get_wchan(), and get get_wchan() was fixed
by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK(). Do the same here.
Example KASAN report triggered by sysrq-t:

dependency:
x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h

Adding the rtc platform device in non-privileged Xen PV guests causes
an IRQ conflict because these guests do not have legacy PIC and may
allocate irqs in the legacy range.
In a single VCPU Xen PV guest we should have:
/proc/interrupts:
CPU0
0: 4934 xen-percpu-virq timer0
1: 0 xen-percpu-ipi spinlock0
2: 0 xen-percpu-ipi resched0
3: 0 xen-percpu-ipi callfunc0
4: 0 xen-percpu-virq debug0
5: 0 xen-percpu-ipi callfuncsingle0
6: 0 xen-percpu-ipi irqwork0
7: 321 xen-dyn-event xenbus
8: 90 xen-dyn-event hvc_console
...
But hvc_console cannot get its interrupt because it is already in use
by rtc0 and the console does not work.
genirq: Flags mismatch irq 8. 00000000 (hvc_console) vs. 00000000 (rtc0)
We can avoid this problem by realizing that unprivileged PV guests (both
Xen and lguests) are not supposed to have rtc_cmos device and so
adding it is not necessary.
Privileged guests (i.e. Xen's dom0) do use it but they should not have
irq conflicts since they allocate irqs above legacy range (above
gsi_top, in fact).
Instead of explicitly testing whether the guest is privileged we can
extend pv_info structure to include information about guest's RTC
support.

On x86, cpu_relax() simply calls rep_nop(), which generates one
instruction, PAUSE (aka REP NOP).
With this config:
http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config_OPTIMIZE_INLINING_and_Os
gcc-4.7.2 does not always inline rep_nop(): it generates several
copies of this:
<rep_nop> (16 copies, 194 calls):
55 push %rbp
48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
f3 90 pause
5d pop %rbp
c3 retq
See: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66122
This patch fixes this via s/inline/__always_inline/
on rep_nop() and cpu_relax().
( Forcing inlining only on rep_nop() causes GCC to
deinline cpu_relax(), with almost no change in generated code).

Move the userspace accesses down into the common function in
preparation for the next set of patches. Also change to copying
the fields explicitly instead of assuming a fixed order in
pt_regs and the kernel data structures.

There is no need to save FS and non-lazy GS outside the 32-bit
regs. Lazy GS still needs to be saved because it wasn't saved
on syscall entry. Save it in the gs slot of regs32, which is
present but unused.

The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains two main changes:
- The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
arch/x86/fpu/.
The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
suspected) FPU related regression so far.
- MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU
feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
robust now (Dave Hansen)"

Stash the number of nodes in a physical processor package
locally and add an accessor to be called by interested parties.
The first user is the MCE injection module which uses it to find
the node base core in a package for injecting a certain type of
errors.

The MPX code can only work on the current task. You can not,
for instance, enable MPX management in another process or
thread. You can also not handle a fault for another process or
thread.
Despite this, we pass a task_struct around prolifically. This
patch removes all of the task struct passing for code paths
where the code can not deal with another task (which turns out
to be all of them).
This has no functional changes. It's just a cleanup.

On most configs task-struct is cache line aligned, which makes
the XSAVE area's 64-byte required alignment work out fine.
But on some .config's task_struct is aligned only to 16 bytes
(enforced by ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN), which makes things like
fpu__copy() (that XSAVEOPT uses) not work so well.
I broke this in:
7366ed771f6e ("x86/fpu: Simplify FPU handling by embedding the fpstate in task_struct (again)")
which embedded the fpstate in the task_struct.
The alignment requirements of the FPU code were originally present
in ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN, which still has a value of 16, which was the
alignment requirement of the FPU state area prior XSAVE. But this
link was not documented (and not required) and the link got lost
when the FPU state area was made dynamic years ago.
With XSAVEOPT the minimum alignment requirment went up to 64 bytes,
and the embedding of the FPU state area in task_struct exposed it
again - and '16' was not increased to '64'.
So fix this bug, but also try to address the underlying lost link
of information that made it easier to happen:
- document ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN a bit better
- use alignof() to recover the current alignment requirements.
This would work in the future as well, should the alignment
requirements go up to 128 bytes with things like AVX512.
( We should probably also use the vSMP alignment rules for all
of x86, but that's for another patch. )
