There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:
1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.
x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go
back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not
SYSEXIT.
x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat
code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing,
we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.
Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim
by JIT.
Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by
documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core
serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier
IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before
going back to user-space). They should then select
ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on
their architecture.
Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that
they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space,
or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

Introduce an architecture function that ensures the current CPU
issues a core serializing instruction before returning to usermode.
This is needed for the membarrier "sync_core" command.
Architectures defining the sync_core_before_usermode() static inline

Allow expedited membarrier to be used for data shared between processes
through shared memory.
Processes wishing to receive the membarriers register with
MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. Those which want to issue
membarrier invoke MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
This allows extremely simple kernel-level implementation: we have almost
everything we need with the PRIVATE_EXPEDITED barrier code. All we need
to do is to add a flag in the mm_struct that will be used to check
whether we need to send the IPI to the current thread of each CPU.
There is a slight downside to this approach compared to targeting
specific shared memory users: when performing a membarrier operation,
all registered "global" receivers will get the barrier, even if they
don't share a memory mapping with the sender issuing
MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
This registration approach seems to fit the requirement of not
disturbing processes that really deeply care about real-time: they
simply should not register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
In order to align the membarrier command names, the "MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED"
command is renamed to "MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL", keeping an alias of
MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED to MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL for UAPI header backward
compatibility.

cpumask update operations as well as write_cr3(). Document that
write_cr3() provides this barrier.

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and
only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a
process that has registered to use expedited private.
Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread
groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences:
It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the
number of threads using a VM. We can use
(atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1)
instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has
a single user, and that user only has a single thread.
It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set
thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the
thread group.
Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than
relying on thread flags. This means
membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and
only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows
private expedited membarrier commands to succeed.
membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Since i_version is mostly treated as an opaque value, we can exploit that
fact to avoid incrementing it when no one is watching. With that change,
we can avoid incrementing the counter on writes, unless someone has
queried for it since it was last incremented. If the a/c/mtime don't
change, and the i_version hasn't changed, then there's no need to dirty
the inode metadata on a write.
Convert the i_version counter to an atomic64_t, and use the lowest order
bit to hold a flag that will tell whether anyone has queried the value
since it was last incremented.
When we go to maybe increment it, we fetch the value and check the flag
bit. If it's clear then we don't need to do anything if the update
isn't being forced.
If we do need to update, then we increment the counter by 2, and clear
the flag bit, and then use a CAS op to swap it into place. If that
works, we return true. If it doesn't then do it again with the value
that we fetch from the CAS operation.
On the query side, if the flag is already set, then we just shift the
value down by 1 bit and return it. Otherwise, we set the flag in our
on-stack value and again use cmpxchg to swap it into place if it hasn't
changed. If it has, then we use the value from the cmpxchg as the new
"old" value and try again.
This method allows us to avoid incrementing the counter on writes (and
dirtying the metadata) under typical workloads. We only need to increment
if it has been queried since it was last changed.

For AFS, it's generally treated as an opaque value, so we use the
*_raw variants of the API here.
Note that AFS has quite a different definition for this counter. AFS
only increments it on changes to the data to the data in regular files
and contents of the directories. Inode metadata changes do not result
in a version increment.
We'll need to reconcile that somehow if we ever want to present this to
userspace via statx.

The rationale for taking the i_lock when incrementing this value is
lost in antiquity. The readers of the field don't take it (at least
not universally), so my assumption is that it was only done here to
serialize incrementors.
If that is indeed the case, then we can drop the i_lock from this
codepath and treat it as a atomic64_t for the purposes of
incrementing it. This allows us to use inode_inc_iversion without
any danger of lock inversion.
Note that the read side is not fetched atomically with this change.
The assumption here is that that is not a critical issue since the
i_version is not fully synchronized with anything else anyway.

Add a documentation blob that explains what the i_version field is, how
it is expected to work, and how it is currently implemented by various
filesystems.
We already have inode_inc_iversion. Add several other functions for
manipulating and accessing the i_version counter. For now, the
implementation is trivial and basically works the way that all of the
open-coded i_version accesses work today.
Future patches will convert existing users of i_version to use the new
API, and then convert the backend implementation to do things more
efficiently.

We want to expose the hardware features simply in /proc/cpuinfo as "ibrs",
"ibpb" and "stibp". Since AMD has separate CPUID bits for those, use them
as the user-visible bits.
When the Intel SPEC_CTRL bit is set which indicates both IBRS and IBPB
capability, set those (AMD) bits accordingly. Likewise if the Intel STIBP
bit is set, set the AMD STIBP that's used for the generic hardware
capability.
Hide the rest from /proc/cpuinfo by putting "" in the comments. Including
RETPOLINE and RETPOLINE_AMD which shouldn't be visible there. There are
patches to make the sysfs vulnerabilities information non-readable by
non-root, and the same should apply to all information about which
mitigations are actually in use. Those *shouldn't* appear in /proc/cpuinfo.
The feature bit for whether IBPB is actually used, which is needed for
ALTERNATIVEs, is renamed to X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB.

Calling fan related SMM functions implemented by Dell BIOS firmware on Dell
Vostro 3360 freeze kernel for about 500ms.
Unfortunately, it is unlikely for Dell to fix this since the machine
is pretty old, so this commit just disables fan support to make the
system usable again.
Via "force" module param fan support can be enabled.

The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation
mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a
continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making
progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with
a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base
which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware
prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay
clears the flag and resumes normal operation.
If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is
unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the
CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and
it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so
nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer
interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and
other malfunctions.
Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer
cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in.
Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the
root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's
trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

Due to some unfortunate events, I have not been directly involved in
the x86 kernel patch flow for a while now. I have also not been able
to ramp back up by now like I had hoped to, and after reviewing what I
will need to work on both internally at Intel and elsewhere in the near
term, it is clear that I am not going to be able to ramp back up until
late 2018 at the very earliest.
It is not acceptable to not recognize that this load is currently
taken by Ingo and Thomas without my direct participation, so I mark
myself as R: (designated reviewer) rather than M: (maintainer) until
further notice. This is in fact recognizing the de facto situation
for the past few years.
I have obviously no intention of going away, and I will do everything
within my power to improve Linux on x86 and x86 for Linux. This,
however, puts credit where it is due and reflects a change of focus.
This patch also removes stale entries for portions of the x86
architecture which have not been maintained separately from arch/x86
for a long time. If there is a reason to re-introduce them then that
can happen later.
