      perf/core: Fix dynamic interrupt throttle · 91a612ee
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism,
      both triggered by the same action.
      
      When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into
      /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed
      perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole
      dynamic throttle.
      
      This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the
      value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by
      writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will
      generate a warning in dmesg.
      
      The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge
      number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the
      limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on
      the observed duration.

      perf/x86/ibs: Add IBS interrupt to the dynamic throttle · c2872d38
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Interrupt throttling is normally only done against
      sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate. This means that if that number is too
      high (for whatever reason) you can lock up your machine.
      
      We have, however, a dynamic throttling scheme too, but for that to
      work, we need to add a callback to the interrupt handler, IBS did not
      have this, so add it.

      perf/x86/ibs: Fix race with IBS_STARTING state · 5a50f529
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      While tracing the IBS bits I saw the NMI hitting between clearing
      IBS_STARTING and the actual MSR writes to disable the counter.
      
      Since IBS_STARTING was cleared, the handler assumed these were spurious
      NMIs and because STOPPING wasn't set yet either, insta-triggered an
      "Unknown NMI".
      
      Cure this by clearing IBS_STARTING after disabling the hardware.

      Peter Zijlstra authored
      When the IBS IRQ handler get a !0 return from perf_event_overflow;
      meaning it should throttle the event, it only disables it, it doesn't
      call perf_ibs_stop().
      
      This confuses the state machine, as we'll use pmu::start() ->
      perf_ibs_start() to unthrottle.

      perf/core: Fix the unthrottle logic · 1e02cd40
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Its possible to IOC_PERIOD while the event is throttled, this would
      re-start the event and the next tick would then try to unthrottle it,
      and find the event wasn't actually stopped anymore.
      
      This would tickle a WARN in the x86-pmu code which isn't expecting to
      start a !stopped event.

      x86/irq: Cure live lock in fixup_irqs() · 551adc60
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Harry reported, that he's able to trigger a system freeze with cpu hot
      unplug. The freeze turned out to be a live lock caused by recent changes in
      irq_force_complete_move().
      
      When fixup_irqs() and from there irq_force_complete_move() is called on the
      dying cpu, then all other cpus are in stop machine an wait for the dying cpu
      to complete the teardown. If there is a move of an interrupt pending then
      irq_force_complete_move() sends the cleanup IPI to the cpus in the old_domain
      mask and waits for them to clear the mask. That's obviously impossible as
      those cpus are firmly stuck in stop machine with interrupts disabled.
      
      I should have known that, but I completely overlooked it being concentrated on
      the locking issues around the vectors. And the existance of the call to
      __irq_complete_move() in the code, which actually sends the cleanup IPI made
      it reasonable to wait for that cleanup to complete. That call was bogus even
      before the recent changes as it was just a pointless distraction.
      
      We have to look at two cases:
      
      1) The move_in_progress flag of the interrupt is set
      
         This means the ioapic has been updated with the new vector, but it has not
         fired yet. In theory there is a race:
      
         set_ioapic(new_vector) <-- Interrupt is raised before update is effective,
         			      i.e. it's raised on the old vector. 
      
         So if the target cpu cannot handle that interrupt before the old vector is
         cleaned up, we get a spurious interrupt and in the worst case the ioapic
         irq line becomes stale, but my experiments so far have only resulted in
         spurious interrupts.
      
         But in case of cpu hotplug this should be a non issue because if the
         affinity update happens right before all cpus rendevouz in stop machine,
         there is no way that the interrupt can be blocked on the target cpu because
         all cpus loops first with interrupts enabled in stop machine, so the old
         vector is not yet cleaned up when the interrupt fires.
      
         So the only way to run into this issue is if the delivery of the interrupt
         on the apic/system bus would be delayed beyond the point where the target
         cpu disables interrupts in stop machine. I doubt that it can happen, but at
         least there is a theroretical chance. Virtualization might be able to
         expose this, but AFAICT the IOAPIC emulation is not as stupid as the real
         hardware.
      
         I've spent quite some time over the weekend to enforce that situation,
         though I was not able to trigger the delayed case.
      
      2) The move_in_progress flag is not set and the old_domain cpu mask is not
         empty.
      
         That means, that an interrupt was delivered after the change and the
         cleanup IPI has been sent to the cpus in old_domain, but not all CPUs have
         responded to it yet.
      
      In both cases we can assume that the next interrupt will arrive on the new
      vector, so we can cleanup the old vectors on the cpus in the old_domain cpu
      mask.

      x86/tsc: Prevent NULL pointer deref in calibrate_delay_is_known() · f508a5ba
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The topology_core_cpumask is used to find a neighbour cpu in
      calibrate_delay_is_known(). It might not be allocated at the first invocation
      of that function on the boot cpu, when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set.
      
      The mask is allocated later in native_smp_prepare_cpus. As a consequence the
      underlying find_next_bit() call dereferences a NULL pointer.
      
      Add a proper check to prevent this.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull cpu hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "This is the first part of the ongoing cpu hotplug rework:
      
         - Initial implementation of the state machine
      
         - Runs all online and prepare down callbacks on the plugged cpu and
           not on some random processor
      
         - Replaces busy loop waiting with completions
      
         - Adds tracepoints so the states can be followed"
      
      More detailed commentary on this work from an earlier email:
       "What's wrong with the current cpu hotplug infrastructure?
      
         - Asymmetry
      
           The hotplug notifier mechanism is asymmetric versus the bringup and
           teardown.  This is mostly caused by the notifier mechanism.
      
         - Largely undocumented dependencies
      
           While some notifiers use explicitely defined notifier priorities,
           we have quite some notifiers which use numerical priorities to
           express dependencies without any documentation why.
      
         - Control processor driven
      
           Most of the bringup/teardown of a cpu is driven by a control
           processor.  While it is understandable, that preperatory steps,
           like idle thread creation, memory allocation for and initialization
           of essential facilities needs to be done before a cpu can boot,
           there is no reason why everything else must run on a control
           processor.  Before this patch series, bringup looks like this:
      
             Control CPU                     Booting CPU
      
             do preparatory steps
             kick cpu into life
      
                                             do low level init
      
             sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu
      
             bring the rest up
      
         - All or nothing approach
      
           There is no way to do partial bringups.  That's something which is
           really desired because we waste e.g.  at boot substantial amount of
           time just busy waiting that the cpu comes to life.  That's stupid
           as we could very well do preparatory steps and the initial IPI for
           other cpus and then go back and do the necessary low level
           synchronization with the freshly booted cpu.
      
         - Minimal debuggability
      
           Due to the notifier based design, it's impossible to switch between
           two stages of the bringup/teardown back and forth in order to test
           the correctness.  So in many hotplug notifiers the cancel
           mechanisms are either not existant or completely untested.
      
         - Notifier [un]registering is tedious
      
           To [un]register notifiers we need to protect against hotplug at
           every callsite.  There is no mechanism that bringup/teardown
           callbacks are issued on the online cpus, so every caller needs to
           do it itself.  That also includes error rollback.
      
        What's the new design?
      
           The base of the new design is a symmetric state machine, where both
           the control processor and the booting/dying cpu execute a well
           defined set of states.  Each state is symmetric in the end, except
           for some well defined exceptions, and the bringup/teardown can be
           stopped and reversed at almost all states.
      
           So the bringup of a cpu will look like this in the future:
      
             Control CPU                     Booting CPU
      
             do preparatory steps
             kick cpu into life
      
                                             do low level init
      
             sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu
      
                                             bring itself up
      
           The synchronization step does not require the control cpu to wait.
           That mechanism can be done asynchronously via a worker or some
           other mechanism.
      
           The teardown can be made very similar, so that the dying cpu cleans
           up and brings itself down.  Cleanups which need to be done after
           the cpu is gone, can be scheduled asynchronously as well.
      
        There is a long way to this, as we need to refactor the notion when a
        cpu is available.  Today we set the cpu online right after it comes
        out of the low level bringup, which is not really correct.
      
        The proper mechanism is to set it to available, i.e. cpu local
        threads, like softirqd, hotplug thread etc. can be scheduled on that
        cpu, and once it finished all booting steps, it's set to online, so
        general workloads can be scheduled on it.  The reverse happens on
        teardown.  First thing to do is to forbid scheduling of general
        workloads, then teardown all the per cpu resources and finally shut it
        off completely.
      
        This patch series implements the basic infrastructure for this at the
        core level.  This includes the following:
      
         - Basic state machine implementation with well defined states, so
           ordering and prioritization can be expressed.
      
         - Interfaces to [un]register state callbacks
      
           This invokes the bringup/teardown callback on all online cpus with
           the proper protection in place and [un]installs the callbacks in
           the state machine array.
      
           For callbacks which have no particular ordering requirement we have
           a dynamic state space, so that drivers don't have to register an
           explicit hotplug state.
      
           If a callback fails, the code automatically does a rollback to the
           previous state.
      
         - Sysfs interface to drive the state machine to a particular step.
      
           This is only partially functional today.  Full functionality and
           therefor testability will be achieved once we converted all
           existing hotplug notifiers over to the new scheme.
      
         - Run all CPU_ONLINE/DOWN_PREPARE notifiers on the booting/dying
           processor:
      
             Control CPU                     Booting CPU
      
             do preparatory steps
             kick cpu into life
      
                                             do low level init
      
             sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu
             wait for boot
                                             bring itself up
      
                                             Signal completion to control cpu
      
           In a previous step of this work we've done a full tree mechanical
           conversion of all hotplug notifiers to the new scheme.  The balance
           is a net removal of about 4000 lines of code.
      
           This is not included in this series, as we decided to take a
           different approach.  Instead of mechanically converting everything
           over, we will do a proper overhaul of the usage sites one by one so
           they nicely fit into the symmetric callback scheme.
      
           I decided to do that after I looked at the ugliness of some of the
           converted sites and figured out that their hotplug mechanism is
           completely buggered anyway.  So there is no point to do a
           mechanical conversion first as we need to go through the usage
           sites one by one again in order to achieve a full symmetric and
           testable behaviour"

      The issue is caused by the to_pci_dev() call with no check that the given
      info->device is in fact a PCI device and some FB devices (Hyper-V FB, EFI
      FB,...) are not.
      
      While on it, clean up the function.

       "The main changes in this cycle are:
      
         - Make schedstats a runtime tunable (disabled by default) and
           optimize it via static keys.
      
           As most distributions enable CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS=y due to its
           instrumentation value, this is a nice performance enhancement.
           (Mel Gorman)
      
         - Implement 'simple waitqueues' (swait): these are just pure
           waitqueues without any of the more complex features of full-blown
           waitqueues (callbacks, wake flags, wake keys, etc.).  Simple
           waitqueues have less memory overhead and are faster.
      
           Use simple waitqueues in the RCU code (in 4 different places) and
           for handling KVM vCPU wakeups.
