powerpc/64s/interrupt: Don't enable MSR[EE] in irq handlers unless perf is in use

2021-12-16T10:31:45Z

Enabling MSR[EE] in interrupt handlers while interrupts are still soft masked allows PMIs to profile interrupt handlers to some degree, beyond what SIAR latching allows. When perf is not being used, this is almost useless work. It requires an extra mtmsrd in the irq handler, and it also opens the door to masked interrupts hitting and requiring replay, which is more expensive than just taking them directly. This effect can be noticable in high IRQ workloads. Avoid enabling MSR[EE] unless perf is currently in use. This saves about 60 cycles (or 8%) on a simple decrementer interrupt microbenchmark. Replayed interrupts drop from 1.4% of all interrupts taken, to 0.003%. This does prevent the soft-nmi interrupt being taken in these handlers, but that's not too reliable anyway. The SMP watchdog will continue to be the reliable way to catch lockups.

Nick Piggin suggested something similar to the following sequence as a possible explanation (interleaving of CALL_FUNCTION/RESCHEDULE IPI messages seems to be most common, but any mix of CALL_FUNCTION and !CALL_FUNCTION messages could trigger it): CPU X: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message(): X: smp_mb() X: message[RESCHEDULE] = 1 X: doorbell_global_ipi(42): X: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1) X: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb() X: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42 42: doorbell_exception(): // from CPU X 42: ppc_msgsync() 105: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message(): 105: smb_mb() // STORE DEFERRED DUE TO RE-ORDERING --105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1 | 105: doorbell_global_ipi(42): | 105: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1) | 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0) | 42: smp_ipi_demux_relaxed() | 42: // returns to executing guest | // RE-ORDERED STORE COMPLETES ->105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1 105: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb() 105: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42 42: local_paca->kvm_hstate.host_ipi == 0 // IPI ignored 105: // hangs waiting on 42 to process messages/call_single_queue This can be prevented with an smp_mb() at the beginning of kvmppc_set_host_ipi(), such that stores to message[] (or other state indicated by the host_ipi flag) are ordered vs. the store to to host_ipi. However, doing so might still allow for the following scenario (not yet observed): CPU X: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message(): X: smp_mb() X: message[RESCHEDULE] = 1 X: doorbell_global_ipi(42): X: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1) X: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb() X: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42 42: doorbell_exception(): // from CPU X 42: ppc_msgsync() // STORE DEFERRED DUE TO RE-ORDERING -- 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0) | 42: smp_ipi_demux_relaxed() | 105: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message(): | 105: smb_mb() | 105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1 | 105: doorbell_global_ipi(42): | 105: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1) | // RE-ORDERED STORE COMPLETES -> 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0) 42: // returns to executing guest 105: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb() 105: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42 42: local_paca->kvm_hstate.host_ipi == 0 // IPI ignored 105: // hangs waiting on 42 to process messages/call_single_queue Fixing this scenario would require an smp_mb() *after* clearing host_ipi flag in kvmppc_set_host_ipi() to order the store vs. subsequent processing of IPI messages. To handle both cases, this patch splits kvmppc_set_host_ipi() into separate set/clear functions, where we execute smp_mb() prior to setting host_ipi flag, and after clearing host_ipi flag. These functions pair with each other to synchronize the sender and receiver sides. With that change in place the above workload ran for 20 hours without triggering any lock-ups.

2017-04-13T13:34:33Z

Change the doorbell callers to know about their msgsnd addressing, rather than have them set a per-cpu target data tag at boot that gets sent to the cause_ipi functions. The data is only used for doorbell IPI functions, no other IPI types, so it makes sense to keep that detail local to doorbell. Have the platform code understand doorbell IPIs, rather than the interrupt controller code understand them. Platform code can look at capabilities it has available and decide which to use.

powerpc/powernv: Fixes for hypervisor doorbell handling

2015-03-20T03:51:53Z

Since we can now use hypervisor doorbells for host IPIs, this makes sure we clear the host IPI flag when taking a doorbell interrupt, and clears any pending doorbell IPI in pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() (as we already do for IPIs sent via the XICS interrupt controller). Otherwise if there did happen to be a leftover pending doorbell interrupt for an offline CPU thread for any reason, it would prevent that thread from going into a power-saving mode; it would instead keep waking up because of the interrupt.
