Add an ->enter_freeze callback routine, intel_idle_freeze(), to
the intel_idle driver and point the ->enter_freeze callback
pointers of all of the driver's state objects to it.

The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
interrupts.
However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
timers in a whack-a-mole fashion. A much more effective approach is
to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.
The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
entire timekeeping. That should prevent timer interrupts from
triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs. It
needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
consequences.
Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit. Also some
of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.
To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
not to touch the CPU timer devices. Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after
timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which
in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the
clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is
not accessible at that time.
Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for
the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will
always return the same number of cycles.
After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the
clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend.
The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the
dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine
unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend. Next, the dummy is
passed to update_fast_timekeeper().
Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent
timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast
timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called
right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.

Modify update_fast_timekeeper() to take a struct tk_read_base
pointer as its argument (instead of a struct timekeeper pointer)
and update its kerneldoc comment to reflect that.
That will allow a struct tk_read_base that is not part of a
struct timekeeper to be passed to it in the next patch.

In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final
stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter()
function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake()
function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by
which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle.
First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle
and make the code in question use it.
Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race
conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change
while it is being executed. In addition to that, make it force
all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle
states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible).
Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state
checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single
suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call().
Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the
deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using
cpuidle_enter().

This reverts commit 5fcee53ce705d49c766f8a302c7e93bdfc33c124.
It causes the suspend to fail on at least the Chromebook Pixel, possibly
other platforms too.
Joerg Roedel points out that the logic should probably have been
if (max_physical_apicid > 255 ||
!(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST) &&
hypervisor_x2apic_available())) {
instead, but since the code is not in any fast-path, so we can just live
without that optimization and just revert to the original code.

Memory allocation only happens in the self test, just as random numbers
are only used there. So move the inclusion of slab.h inside the
CONFIG_TEST_LIST_SORT.
We don't need module.h and all of the stuff it carries with it, so replace
with export.h and compiler.h. Unfortunately, the ARRAY_SIZE macro from
kernel.h requires the user to ensure bug.h is also included (for
BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO, used by __must_be_array). We used to get that through
some maze of nested includes, but just include it explicitly.
linux/string.h is then only included implicitly through
kernel.h->printk.h->dynamic_debug.h, but only if !CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, so
just include it explicitly (for memset).
objdump -d says the generated code is the same, and wc -l says that
lib/.list_sort.o.cmd went from 579 to 165 lines.

This patch makes hexdump return the number of bytes placed in the buffer
excluding trailing NUL. In the case of overflow it returns the desired
amount of bytes to produce the entire dump. Thus, it mimics snprintf().
This will be useful for users that would like to repeat with a bigger

In the current implementation we have a floating ascii column in the tail
of the dump.
For example, for row size equal to 16 the ascii column as in following
table
group size \ length 8 12 16
1 50 50 50
2 22 32 42
4 20 29 38
8 19 - 36
This patch makes it the same independently of amount of bytes dumped.
The change is safe since all current users, which use ASCII part of the
dump, rely on the group size equal to 1. The patch doesn't change
behaviour for such group size (see the table above).

The ordinal of a set bit is simply the number of set bits before it;
counting those doesn't need to be done one bit at a time. While at it,
update the parameters to unsigned int.
It is not completely unthinkable that gcc would see pos as compile-time
constant 0 in one of the uses of bitmap_pos_to_ord. Since the static
inline frontend bitmap_weight doesn't handle nbits==0 correctly (it would
behave exactly as if nbits==BITS_PER_LONG), use __bitmap_weight.
Alternatively, the last line could be spelled bitmap_weight(buf, pos+1)-1,
but this is simpler.

On POWER8 virtualised kernels the VTB register can be read to have a view
of time that only increases while the guest is running. This will prevent
guests from seeing time jump if a guest is paused for significant amounts
of time.
On POWER7 and below virtualised kernels stolen time is subtracted from
local_clock as a best effort approximation. This will not eliminate
spurious warnings in the case of a suspended guest but may reduce the
occurance in the case of softlockups due to host over commit.
Bare metal kernels should avoid reading the VTB as KVM does not restore
sane values when not executing, the approxmation is fine as host kernels
won't observe any stolen time.

When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a
jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup
detector.
Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack
trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace
in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be
misleading.
Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction
of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register.
This patch (of 2):
This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels
can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which
will include host execution time.
