Patch series "cpumask: Fix invalid uniprocessor assumptions", v4.
On uniprocessor builds, it is currently assumed that any cpumask will
contain the single CPU: cpu0. This assumption is used to provide
optimised implementations.
The current assumption also appears to be wrong, by ignoring the fact that
users can provide empty cpumasks. This can result in bugs as explained in
[1] - for_each_cpu() will run one iteration of the loop even when passed
an empty cpumask.
This series introduces some basic tests, and updates the optimisations for
uniprocessor builds.
The x86 patch was written after the kernel test robot [2] ran into a
failed build. I have tried to list the files potentially affected by the
changes to cpumask.h, in an attempt to find any other cases that fail on
!SMP. I've gone through some of the files manually, and ran a few cross
builds, but nothing else popped up. I (build) checked about half of the
potientally affected files, but I do not have the resources to do them
all. I hope we can fix other issues if/when they pop up later.

This patch (of 5):
The maps to keep track of shared caches between CPUs on SMP systems are
declared in asm/smp.h, among them specifically cpu_llc_shared_map. These
maps are externally defined in cpu/smpboot.c. The latter is only compiled
on CONFIG_SMP=y, which means the declared extern symbols from asm/smp.h do
not have a corresponding definition on uniprocessor builds.
The inline cpu_llc_shared_mask() function from asm/smp.h refers to the map
declaration mentioned above. This function is referenced in cacheinfo.c
inside for_each_cpu() loop macros, to provide cpumask for the loop. On
uniprocessor builds, the symbol for the cpu_llc_shared_map does not exist.
However, the current implementation of for_each_cpu() also (wrongly)
ignores the provided mask.
By sheer luck, the compiler thus optimises out this unused reference to
cpu_llc_shared_map, and the linker therefore does not require the
cpu_llc_shared_mask to actually exist on uniprocessor builds. Only on SMP
bulids does smpboot.o exist to provide the required symbols.
To no longer rely on compiler optimisations for successful uniprocessor
builds, move the definitions of cpu_llc_shared_map and cpu_l2c_shared_map
from smpboot.c to cacheinfo.c.

Pull Intel TDX support from Borislav Petkov:
"Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) support.
This is the Intel version of a confidential computing solution called
Trust Domain Extensions (TDX). This series adds support to run the
kernel as part of a TDX guest. It provides similar guest protections
to AMD's SEV-SNP like guest memory and register state encryption,
memory integrity protection and a lot more.
Design-wise, it differs from AMD's solution considerably: it uses a
software module which runs in a special CPU mode called (Secure
Arbitration Mode) SEAM. As the name suggests, this module serves as
sort of an arbiter which the confidential guest calls for services it
needs during its lifetime.
Just like AMD's SNP set, this series reworks and streamlines certain
parts of x86 arch code so that this feature can be properly
accomodated"

The frequency invariance support is currently limited to x86/64 and SMP,
which is the vast majority of machines.
arch_scale_freq_tick() is called every tick on all CPUs and reads the APERF
and MPERF MSRs. The CPU frequency getters function do the same via dedicated
IPIs.
While it could be argued that on systems where frequency invariance support
is disabled (32bit, !SMP) the per tick read of the APERF and MPERF MSRs can
be avoided, it does not make sense to keep the extra code and the resulting
runtime issues of mass IPIs around.
As a first step split out the non frequency invariance specific
initialization code and the read MSR portion of arch_scale_freq_tick(). The
rest of the code is still conditional and guarded with a static key.

Historically, x86 platforms have booted secondary processors (APs)
using INIT followed by the start up IPI (SIPI) messages. In regular
VMs, this boot sequence is supported by the VMM emulation. But such a
wakeup model is fatal for secure VMs like TDX in which VMM is an
untrusted entity. To address this issue, a new wakeup model was added
in ACPI v6.4, in which firmware (like TDX virtual BIOS) will help boot
the APs. More details about this wakeup model can be found in ACPI
specification v6.4, the section titled "Multiprocessor Wakeup Structure".
Since the existing trampoline code requires processors to boot in real
mode with 16-bit addressing, it will not work for this wakeup model
(because it boots the AP in 64-bit mode). To handle it, extend the
trampoline code to support 64-bit mode firmware handoff. Also, extend
IDT and GDT pointers to support 64-bit mode hand off.
There is no TDX-specific detection for this new boot method. The kernel
will rely on it as the sole boot method whenever the new ACPI structure
is present.
The ACPI table parser for the MADT multiprocessor wake up structure and
the wakeup method that uses this structure will be added by the following
patch in this series.

To provide a more secure way to start APs under SEV-SNP, use the SEV-SNP
AP Creation NAE event. This allows for guest control over the AP register
state rather than trusting the hypervisor with the SEV-ES Jump Table
address.
During native_smp_prepare_cpus(), invoke an SEV-SNP function that, if
SEV-SNP is active, will set/override apic->wakeup_secondary_cpu. This
will allow the SEV-SNP AP Creation NAE event method to be used to boot
the APs. As a result of installing the override when SEV-SNP is active,
this method of starting the APs becomes the required method. The override
function will fail to start the AP if the hypervisor does not have
support for AP creation.

The init_freq_invariance_cppc code actually doesn't need the SMP
functionality. So setting the CONFIG_SMP as the check condition for
init_freq_invariance_cppc may cause the confusion to misunderstand the
CPPC. And the x86 CPPC file is better space to store the CPPC related
functions, while the init_freq_invariance_cppc is out of smpboot, that
means, the CONFIG_SMP won't be mandatory condition any more. And It's more
clear than before.

For x86 hybrid CPUs like Alder Lake, the order of CPU selection should
be based strictly on CPU priority. Don't include cluster topology for
hybrid CPUs to avoid interference with such CPU selection order.
On Alder Lake, the Atom CPU cluster has more capacity (4 Atom CPUs) vs
Big core cluster (2 hyperthread CPUs). This could potentially bias CPU
selection towards Atom over Big Core, when Big core CPU has higher
priority.

Commit 66558b730f25 ("sched: Add cluster scheduler level for x86")
introduced cpu_l2c_shared_map mask which is expected to be initialized
by smp_op.smp_prepare_cpus(). That commit only updated
native_smp_prepare_cpus() version but not xen_pv_smp_prepare_cpus().
As result Xen PV guests crash in set_cpu_sibling_map().
While the new mask can be allocated in xen_pv_smp_prepare_cpus() one can
see that both versions of smp_prepare_cpus ops share a number of common
operations that can be factored out. So do that instead.

Pull x86 fpu updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Cleanup of extable fixup handling to be more robust, which in turn
allows to make the FPU exception fixups more robust as well.
- Change the return code for signal frame related failures from
explicit error codes to a boolean fail/success as that's all what the
calling code evaluates.
- A large refactoring of the FPU code to prepare for adding AMX
support:
- Distangle the public header maze and remove especially the
misnomed kitchen sink internal.h which is despite it's name
included all over the place.
- Add a proper abstraction for the register buffer storage (struct
fpstate) which allows to dynamically size the buffer at runtime
by flipping the pointer to the buffer container from the default
container which is embedded in task_struct::tread::fpu to a
dynamically allocated container with a larger register buffer.
- Convert the code over to the new fpstate mechanism.
- Consolidate the KVM FPU handling by moving the FPU related code
into the FPU core which removes the number of exports and avoids
adding even more export when AMX has to be supported in KVM.
This also removes duplicated code which was of course
unnecessary different and incomplete in the KVM copy.
- Simplify the KVM FPU buffer handling by utilizing the new
fpstate container and just switching the buffer pointer from the
user space buffer to the KVM guest buffer when entering
vcpu_run() and flipping it back when leaving the function. This
cuts the memory requirements of a vCPU for FPU buffers in half
and avoids pointless memory copy operations.
This also solves the so far unresolved problem of adding AMX
support because the current FPU buffer handling of KVM inflicted
a circular dependency between adding AMX support to the core and
to KVM. With the new scheme of switching fpstate AMX support can
be added to the core code without affecting KVM.
- Replace various variables with proper data structures so the
extra information required for adding dynamically enabled FPU
features (AMX) can be added in one place
- Add AMX (Advanced Matrix eXtensions) support (finally):
AMX is a large XSTATE component which is going to be available with
Saphire Rapids XEON CPUs. The feature comes with an extra MSR
(MSR_XFD) which allows to trap the (first) use of an AMX related
instruction, which has two benefits:
1) It allows the kernel to control access to the feature
2) It allows the kernel to dynamically allocate the large register
state buffer instead of burdening every task with the the extra
8K or larger state storage.
It would have been great to gain this kind of control already with
AVX512.
The support comes with the following infrastructure components:
1) arch_prctl() to
- read the supported features (equivalent to XGETBV(0))
- read the permitted features for a task
- request permission for a dynamically enabled feature
Permission is granted per process, inherited on fork() and
cleared on exec(). The permission policy of the kernel is
restricted to sigaltstack size validation, but the syscall
obviously allows further restrictions via seccomp etc.
2) A stronger sigaltstack size validation for sys_sigaltstack(2)
which takes granted permissions and the potentially resulting
larger signal frame into account. This mechanism can also be used
to enforce factual sigaltstack validation independent of dynamic
features to help with finding potential victims of the 2K
sigaltstack size constant which is broken since AVX512 support
was added.
3) Exception handling for #NM traps to catch first use of a extended
feature via a new cause MSR. If the exception was caused by the
use of such a feature, the handler checks permission for that
feature. If permission has not been granted, the handler sends a
SIGILL like the #UD handler would do if the feature would have
been disabled in XCR0. If permission has been granted, then a new
fpstate which fits the larger buffer requirement is allocated.
In the unlikely case that this allocation fails, the handler
sends SIGSEGV to the task. That's not elegant, but unavoidable as
the other discussed options of preallocation or full per task
permissions come with their own set of horrors for kernel and/or
userspace. So this is the lesser of the evils and SIGSEGV caused
by unexpected memory allocation failures is not a fundamentally
new concept either.
When allocation succeeds, the fpstate properties are filled in to
reflect the extended feature set and the resulting sizes, the
fpu::fpstate pointer is updated accordingly and the trap is
disarmed for this task permanently.
4) Enumeration and size calculations
5) Trap switching via MSR_XFD
The XFD (eXtended Feature Disable) MSR is context switched with
the same life time rules as the FPU register state itself. The
mechanism is keyed off with a static key which is default
disabled so !AMX equipped CPUs have zero overhead. On AMX enabled
CPUs the overhead is limited by comparing the tasks XFD value
with a per CPU shadow variable to avoid redundant MSR writes. In
case of switching from a AMX using task to a non AMX using task
or vice versa, the extra MSR write is obviously inevitable.
All other places which need to be aware of the variable feature
sets and resulting variable sizes are not affected at all because
they retrieve the information (feature set, sizes) unconditonally
from the fpstate properties.
6) Enable the new AMX states
Note, this is relatively new code despite the fact that AMX support
is in the works for more than a year now.
The big refactoring of the FPU code, which allowed to do a proper
integration has been started exactly 3 weeks ago. Refactoring of the
existing FPU code and of the original AMX patches took a week and has
been subject to extensive review and testing. The only fallout which
has not been caught in review and testing right away was restricted
to AMX enabled systems, which is completely irrelevant for anyone
outside Intel and their early access program. There might be dragons
lurking as usual, but so far the fine grained refactoring has held up
and eventual yet undetected fallout is bisectable and should be
easily addressable before the 5.16 release. Famous last words...
Many thanks to Chang Bae and Dave Hansen for working hard on this and
also to the various test teams at Intel who reserved extra capacity
to follow the rapid development of this closely which provides the
confidence level required to offer this rather large update for

Currently AMD/Hygon do not populate l2c_id, this means that for SMT
enabled systems they report an L2 per thread. This is ofcourse not
true but was harmless so far.
However, since commit: 66558b730f25 ("sched: Add cluster scheduler
level for x86") the scheduler topology setup requires:
SMT <= L2 <= LLC
Which leads to noisy warnings and possibly weird behaviour on affected
chips.
Therefore change the topology generation such that if l2c_id is not
populated it follows the SMT topology, thereby satisfying the
constraint.

There are x86 CPU architectures (e.g. Jacobsville) where L2 cahce is
shared among a cluster of cores instead of being exclusive to one
single core.
To prevent oversubscription of L2 cache, load should be balanced
between such L2 clusters, especially for tasks with no shared data.
On benchmark such as SPECrate mcf test, this change provides a boost
to performance especially on medium load system on Jacobsville. on a
Jacobsville that has 24 Atom cores, arranged into 6 clusters of 4
cores each, the benchmark number is as follow:
Improvement over baseline kernel for mcf_r
copies run time base rate
1 -0.1% -0.2%
6 25.1% 25.1%
12 18.8% 19.0%
24 0.3% 0.3%
So this looks pretty good. In terms of the system's task distribution,
some pretty bad clumping can be seen for the vanilla kernel without
the L2 cluster domain for the 6 and 12 copies case. With the extra
domain for cluster, the load does get evened out between the clusters.
Note this patch isn't an universal win as spreading isn't necessarily
a win, particually for those workload who can benefit from packing.

A new field smt_active in cpuinfo_x86 identifies if the current core/cpu
is in SMT mode or not.
This is helpful when the system has some of its cores with threads offlined
and can be used for cases where action is taken based on the state of SMT.
The upcoming support for paranoid L1D flush will make use of this information.

SEV-ES guests require properly setup task register with which the TSS
descriptor in the GDT can be located so that the IST-type #VC exception
handler which they need to function properly, can be executed.
This setup needs to happen before attempting to load microcode in
ucode_cpu_init() on secondary CPUs which can cause such #VC exceptions.
Simplify the machinery by running that exception setup from a new function
cpu_init_secondary() and explicitly call cpu_init_exception_handling() for
the boot CPU before cpu_init(). The latter prepares for fixing and
simplifying the exception/IST setup on the boot CPU.
There should be no functional changes resulting from this patch.

As pointed out by commit
de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")
init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.
As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().
Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -> idle_init().
Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().
Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

- Turn the stack canary into a normal __percpu variable on 32-bit which
gets rid of the LAZY_GS stuff and a lot of code.
- Add an insn_decode() API which all users of the instruction decoder
should preferrably use. Its goal is to keep the details of the
instruction decoder away from its users and simplify and streamline
how one decodes insns in the kernel. Convert its users to it.
- kprobes improvements and fixes
- Set the maximum DIE per package variable on Hygon
- Rip out the dynamic NOP selection and simplify all the machinery
around selecting NOPs. Use the simplified NOPs in objtool now too.
- Add Xeon Sapphire Rapids to list of CPUs that support PPIN
- Simplify the retpolines by folding the entire thing into an
alternative now that objtool can handle alternatives with stack ops.
Then, have objtool rewrite the call to the retpoline with the
alternative which then will get patched at boot time.
- Document Intel uarch per models in intel-family.h
- Make Sub-NUMA Clustering topology the default and Cluster-on-Die the
exception on Intel.

Commit 1340ccfa9a9a ("x86,sched: Allow topologies where NUMA nodes
share an LLC") added a vendor and model specific check to never
call topology_sane() for Intel Skylake Server systems where NUMA
nodes share an LLC.
Intel Ice Lake and Sapphire Rapids CPUs also enumerate an LLC that is
shared by multiple NUMA nodes. The LLC on these CPUs is shared for
off-package data access but private to the NUMA node for on-package
access. Rather than managing a list of allowable SNC topologies, make
this SNC topology the default, and treat Intel's Cluster-On-Die (COD)
topology as the exception.
In SNC mode, Sky Lake, Ice Lake, and Sapphire Rapids servers do not
emit this warning:
sched: CPU #3's llc-sibling CPU #0 is not on the same node! [node: 1 != 0]. Ignoring dependency.

Commit 8cdddd182bd7 ("ACPI: processor: Fix CPU0 wakeup in
acpi_idle_play_dead()") tried to fix CPU0 hotplug breakage by copying
wakeup_cpu0() + start_cpu0() logic from hlt_play_dead()//mwait_play_dead()
into acpi_idle_play_dead(). The problem is that these functions are not
exported to modules so when CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m build fails.
The issue could've been fixed by exporting both wakeup_cpu0()/start_cpu0()
(the later from assembly) but it seems putting the whole pattern into a
new function and exporting it instead is better.

Commit 496121c02127 ("ACPI: processor: idle: Allow probing on platforms
with one ACPI C-state") broke CPU0 hotplug on certain systems, e.g.
I'm observing the following on AWS Nitro (e.g r5b.xlarge but other
instance types are affected as well):
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online
<10 seconds delay>
-bash: echo: write error: Input/output error
In fact, the above mentioned commit only revealed the problem and did
not introduce it. On x86, to wakeup CPU an NMI is being used and
hlt_play_dead()/mwait_play_dead() loops are prepared to handle it:
/*
* If NMI wants to wake up CPU0, start CPU0.
*/
if (wakeup_cpu0())
start_cpu0();
cpuidle_play_dead() -> acpi_idle_play_dead() (which is now being called on
systems where it wasn't called before the above mentioned commit) serves
the same purpose but it doesn't have a path for CPU0. What happens now on
wakeup is:
- NMI is sent to CPU0
- wakeup_cpu0_nmi() works as expected
- we get back to while (1) loop in acpi_idle_play_dead()
- safe_halt() puts CPU0 to sleep again.
The straightforward/minimal fix is add the special handling for CPU0 on x86
and that's what the patch is doing.

If the maximum performance level taken for computing the
arch_max_freq_ratio value used in the x86 scale-invariance code is
higher than the one corresponding to the cpuinfo.max_freq value
coming from the acpi_cpufreq driver, the scale-invariant utilization
falls below 100% even if the CPU runs at cpuinfo.max_freq or slightly
faster, which causes the schedutil governor to select a frequency
below cpuinfo.max_freq. That frequency corresponds to a frequency
table entry below the maximum performance level necessary to get to
the "boost" range of CPU frequencies which prevents "boost"
frequencies from being used in some workloads.
While this issue is related to scale-invariance, it may be amplified
by commit db865272d9c4 ("cpufreq: Avoid configuring old governors as
default with intel_pstate") from the 5.10 development cycle which
made it extremely easy to default to schedutil even if the preferred
driver is acpi_cpufreq as long as intel_pstate is built too, because
the mere presence of the latter effectively removes the ondemand
governor from the defaults. Distro kernels are likely to include
both intel_pstate and acpi_cpufreq on x86, so their users who cannot
use intel_pstate or choose to use acpi_cpufreq may easily be
affectecd by this issue.
If CPPC is available, it can be used to address this issue by
extending the frequency tables created by acpi_cpufreq to cover the
entire available frequency range (including "boost" frequencies) for
each CPU, but if CPPC is not there, acpi_cpufreq has no idea what
the maximum "boost" frequency is and the frequency tables created by
it cannot be extended in a meaningful way, so in that case make it
ask the arch scale-invariance code to to use the "nominal" performance
level for CPU utilization scaling in order to avoid the issue at hand.

On x86 scale invariace tends to be disabled during resume from
suspend-to-RAM, because the MPERF or APERF MSR values are not as
expected then due to updates taking place after the platform
firmware has been invoked to complete the suspend transition.
That, of course, is not desirable, especially if the schedutil
scaling governor is in use, because the lack of scale invariance
causes it to be less reliable.
To counter that effect, modify init_freq_invariance() to register
a syscore_ops object for scale invariance with the ->resume callback
pointing to init_counter_refs() which will run on the CPU starting
the resume transition (the other CPUs will be taken care of the
"online" operations taking place later).

Frequency invariant accounting calculations need the ratio
freq_curr/freq_max, but freq_max is unknown as it depends on dynamic power
allocation between cores: AMD EPYC CPUs implement "Core Performance Boost".
Three candidates are considered to estimate this value:
- maximum non-boost frequency
- maximum boost frequency
- the mid point between the above two
Experimental data on an AMD EPYC Zen2 machine slightly favors the third
option, which is applied with this patch.
The analysis uses the ondemand cpufreq governor as baseline, and compares
it with schedutil in a number of configurations. Using the freq_max value
described above offers a moderate advantage in performance and efficiency:
sugov-max (freq_max=max_boost) performs the worst on tbench: less
throughput and reduced efficiency than the other invariant-schedutil
options (see "Data Overview" below). Consider that tbench is generally a
problematic case as no schedutil version currently is better than ondemand.
sugov-P0 (freq_max=max_P) is the worst on dbench, while the other sugov's
can surpass ondemand with less filesystem latency and slightly increased
efficiency.

This is the first pass in creating the ability to calculate the
frequency invariance on AMD systems. This approach uses the CPPC
highest performance and nominal performance values that range from
0 - 255 instead of a high and base frquency. This is because we do
not have the ability on AMD to get a highest frequency value.
On AMD systems the highest performance and nominal performance
vaues do correspond to the highest and base frequencies for the system
so using them should produce an appropriate ratio but some tweaking
is likely necessary.
Due to CPPC being initialized later in boot than when the frequency
invariant calculation is currently made, I had to create a callback
from the CPPC init code to do the calculation after we have CPPC
data.
Special thanks to "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>" for reporting that
compilation of drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c is conditional to
CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB, not just CONFIG_ACPI.

This is avoided by moving the call to rcu_cpu_starting up near
the beginning of the start_secondary() function. Note that the
raw_smp_processor_id() is required in order to avoid calling into lockdep
before RCU has declared the CPU to be watched for readers.

apic::irq_dest_mode is actually a boolean, but defined as u32 and named in

struct apic has two members which store information about the destination
mode: dest_logical and irq_dest_mode.
dest_logical contains a mask which was historically used to set the
destination mode in IPI messages. Over time the usage was reduced and the
logical/physical functions were seperated.
There are only a few places which still use 'dest_logical' but they can
use 'irq_dest_mode' instead.
irq_dest_mode is actually a boolean where 0 means physical destination mode
and 1 means logical destination mode. Of course the name does not reflect
the functionality. This will be cleaned up in a subsequent change.
Remove apic::dest_logical and fixup the remaining users.

There is a race when taking a CPU offline. Current code looks like this:
native_cpu_disable()
{
...
apic_soft_disable();
/*
* Any existing set bits for pending interrupt to
* this CPU are preserved and will be sent via IPI
* to another CPU by fixup_irqs().
*/
cpu_disable_common();
{
....
/*
* Race window happens here. Once local APIC has been
* disabled any new interrupts from the device to
* the old CPU are lost
*/
fixup_irqs(); // Too late to capture anything in IRR.
...
}
}
The fix is to disable the APIC *after* cpu_disable_common().
Testing was done with a USB NIC that provided a source of frequent
interrupts. A script migrated interrupts to a specific CPU and
then took that CPU offline.
