Programming MTRR registers in multi-processor systems is a rather lengthy
process. Furthermore, all processors must program these registers in lock
step and with interrupts disabled; the process also involves flushing
caches and TLBs twice. As a result, the process may take a considerable
amount of time.
On some platforms, this can lead to a large skew of the refined-jiffies
clock source. Early when booting, if no other clock is available (e.g.,
booting with hpet=disabled), the refined-jiffies clock source is used to
monitor the TSC clock source. If the skew of refined-jiffies is too large,
Linux wrongly assumes that the TSC is unstable:
clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU1: Marking clocksource
'tsc-early' as unstable because the skew is too large:
clocksource: 'refined-jiffies' wd_now: fffedc10 wd_last:
fffedb90 mask: ffffffff
clocksource: 'tsc-early' cs_now: 5eccfddebc cs_last: 5e7e3303d4
mask: ffffffffffffffff
tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to clocksource watchdog
As per measurements, around 98% of the time needed by the procedure to
program MTRRs in multi-processor systems is spent flushing caches with
wbinvd(). As per the Section 11.11.8 of the Intel 64 and IA 32
Architectures Software Developer's Manual, it is not necessary to flush
caches if the CPU supports cache self-snooping. Thus, skipping the cache
flushes can reduce by several tens of milliseconds the time needed to
complete the programming of the MTRR registers:

Processors which have self-snooping capability can handle conflicting
memory type across CPUs by snooping its own cache. However, there exists
CPU models in which having conflicting memory types still leads to
unpredictable behavior, machine check errors, or hangs.
Clear this feature on affected CPUs to prevent its use.

IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] determines the maximum time in TSC-quanta
that processor can stay in C0.1 or C0.2. A zero value means no maximum
time.
Each instruction sets its own deadline in the instruction's implicit
input EDX:EAX value. The instruction wakes up if the time-stamp counter
reaches or exceeds the specified deadline, or the umwait maximum time
expires, or a store happens in the monitored address range in umwait.
The administrator can write an unsigned 32-bit number to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/max_time to change the default
value. Note that a value of zero means there is no limit. The lower two
bits of the value must be zero.

C0.2 state in umwait and tpause instructions can be enabled or disabled
on a processor through IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register.
By default, C0.2 is enabled and the user wait instructions results in
lower power consumption with slower wakeup time.
But in real time systems which require faster wakeup time although power
savings could be smaller, the administrator needs to disable C0.2 and all
umwait invocations from user applications use C0.1.
Create a sysfs interface which allows the administrator to control C0.2
state during run time.
Andy Lutomirski suggested to turn off local irqs before writing the MSR to
ensure the cached control value is not changed by a concurrent sysfs write
from a different CPU via IPI.
[ tglx: Simplified the update logic in the write function and got rid of
all the convoluted type casts. Added a shared update function and

umwait or tpause allows the processor to enter a light-weight
power/performance optimized state (C0.1 state) or an improved
power/performance optimized state (C0.2 state) for a period specified by
the instruction or until the system time limit or until a store to the
monitored address range in umwait.
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register allows the OS to enable/disable C0.2 on
the processor and to set the maximum time the processor can reside in C0.1
or C0.2.
By default C0.2 is enabled so the user wait instructions can enter the
C0.2 state to save more power with slower wakeup time.
Andy Lutomirski proposed to set the maximum umwait time to 100000 cycles by
default. A quote from Andy:
"What I want to avoid is the case where it works dramatically differently
on NO_HZ_FULL systems as compared to everything else. Also, UMWAIT may
behave a bit differently if the max timeout is hit, and I'd like that
path to get exercised widely by making it happen even on default
configs."
A sysfs interface to adjust the time and the C0.2 enablement is provided in
a follow up change.
[ tglx: Renamed MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_MAX_TIME to
MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_TIME_MASK because the constant is used as
mask throughout the code.

umonitor, umwait, and tpause are a set of user wait instructions.
umonitor arms address monitoring hardware using an address. The
address range is determined by using CPUID.0x5. A store to
an address within the specified address range triggers the
monitoring hardware to wake up the processor waiting in umwait.
umwait instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state while monitoring a range of addresses. The optimized
state may be either a light-weight power/performance optimized state
(C0.1 state) or an improved power/performance optimized state
(C0.2 state).
tpause instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state C0.1 or C0.2 state and wake up when time-stamp counter
reaches specified timeout.
The three instructions may be executed at any privilege level.
The instructions provide power saving method while waiting in
user space. Additionally, they can allow a sibling hyperthread to
make faster progress while this thread is waiting. One example of an
application usage of umwait is when waiting for input data from another
application, such as a user level multi-threaded packet processing
engine.
Availability of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence
of the CPUID feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5].
Detailed information on the instructions and CPUID feature WAITPKG flag
can be found in the latest Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions
and Future Features Programming Reference and Intel 64 and IA-32
Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

Since commit 7d5905dc14a8 ("x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency
in /proc/cpuinfo") open and read of /proc/cpuinfo sends IPI to all CPUs.
Many applications read /proc/cpuinfo at the start for trivial reasons like
counting cores or detecting cpu features. While sensitive workloads like
DPDK network polling don't like any interrupts.
Integrates this feature with cpu isolation and do not send IPIs to CPUs
without housekeeping flag HK_FLAG_MISC (set by nohz_full).
Code that requests cpu frequency like show_cpuinfo() falls back to the last
frequency set by the cpufreq driver if this method returns 0.

The kernel needs to explicitly enable FSGSBASE. So, the application needs
to know if it can safely use these instructions. Just looking at the CPUID
bit is not enough because it may be running in a kernel that does not
enable the instructions.
One way for the application would be to just try and catch the SIGILL.
But that is difficult to do in libraries which may not want to overwrite
the signal handlers of the main application.
Enumerate the enabled FSGSBASE capability in bit 1 of AT_HWCAP2 in the ELF
aux vector. AT_HWCAP2 is already used by PPC for similar purposes.
The application can access it open coded or by using the getauxval()
function in newer versions of glibc.

Without FSGSBASE, user space cannot change GSBASE other than through a
PRCTL. The kernel enforces that the user space GSBASE value is postive as
negative values are used for detecting the kernel space GSBASE value in the
paranoid entry code.
If FSGSBASE is enabled, user space can set arbitrary GSBASE values without
kernel intervention, including negative ones, which breaks the paranoid
entry assumptions.
To avoid this, paranoid entry needs to unconditionally save the current
GSBASE value independent of the interrupted context, retrieve and write the
kernel GSBASE and unconditionally restore the saved value on exit. The
restore happens either in paranoid_exit or in the special exit path of the
NMI low level code.
All other entry code pathes which use unconditional SWAPGS are not affected
as they do not depend on the actual content.

GSBASE is used to find per-CPU data in the kernel. But when GSBASE is
unknown, the per-CPU base can be found from the per_cpu_offset table with a
CPU NR. The CPU NR is extracted from the limit field of the CPUNODE entry
in GDT, or by the RDPID instruction. This is a prerequisite for using
FSGSBASE in the low level entry code.
Also, add the GAS-compatible RDPID macro as binutils 2.21 do not support
it. Support is added in version 2.27.

This will enable user code to do whatever it wants with the new
instructions without any kernel-induced gotchas. (There can still be
architectural gotchas: movl %gs,%eax; movl %eax,%gs may change GSBASE if
WRGSBASE was used, but users are expected to read the CPU manual before
doing things like that.)
This is a considerable speedup. It seems to save about 100 cycles
per context switch compared to the baseline 4.6-rc1 behavior on a
Skylake laptop.
[ chang: 5~10% performance improvements were seen with a context switch
benchmark that ran threads with different FS/GSBASE values (to the
baseline 4.16). Minor edit on the changelog. ]

Add cpu feature conditional FSGSBASE access to the relevant helper
functions. That allows to accelerate certain FS/GS base operations in
subsequent changes.
Note, that while possible, the user space entry/exit GSBASE operations are
not going to use the new FSGSBASE instructions. The reason is that it would
require additional storage for the user space value which adds more
complexity to the low level code and experiments have shown marginal
benefit. This may be revisited later but for now the SWAPGS based handling
in the entry code is preserved except for the paranoid entry/exit code.
To preserve the SWAPGS entry mechanism introduce __[rd|wr]gsbase_inactive()
helpers. Note, for Xen PV, paravirt hooks can be added later as they might
allow a very efficient but different implementation.

When a ptracer writes a ptracee's FS/GSBASE with a different value, the
selector is also cleared. This behavior is not correct as the selector
should be preserved.
Update only the base value and leave the selector intact. To simplify the
code further remove the conditional checking for the same value as this
code is not performance critical.
The only recognizable downside of this change is when the selector is
already nonzero on write. The base will be reloaded according to the
selector. But the case is highly unexpected in real usages.

AVX512 BFLOAT16 instructions support 16-bit BFLOAT16 floating-point
format (BF16) for deep learning optimization.
BF16 is a short version of 32-bit single-precision floating-point
format (FP32) and has several advantages over 16-bit half-precision
floating-point format (FP16). BF16 keeps FP32 accumulation after
multiplication without loss of precision, offers more than enough
range for deep learning training tasks, and doesn't need to handle
hardware exception.
AVX512 BFLOAT16 instructions are enumerated in CPUID.7.1:EAX[bit 5]
AVX512_BF16.
CPUID.7.1:EAX contains only feature bits. Reuse the currently empty
word 12 as a pure features word to hold the feature bits including
AVX512_BF16.
Detailed information of the CPUID bit and AVX512 BFLOAT16 instructions
can be found in the latest Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions
and Future Features Programming Reference.

It's a waste for the four X86_FEATURE_CQM_* feature bits to occupy two
whole feature bits words. To better utilize feature words, re-define
word 11 to host scattered features and move the four X86_FEATURE_CQM_*
features into Linux defined word 11. More scattered features can be
added in word 11 in the future.
Rename leaf 11 in cpuid_leafs to CPUID_LNX_4 to reflect it's a
Linux-defined leaf.
Rename leaf 12 as CPUID_DUMMY which will be replaced by a meaningful
name in the next patch when CPUID.7.1:EAX occupies world 12.
Maximum number of RMID and cache occupancy scale are retrieved from
CPUID.0xf.1 after scattered CQM features are enumerated. Carve out the
code into a separate function.
KVM doesn't support resctrl now. So it's safe to move the
X86_FEATURE_CQM_* features to scattered features word 11 for KVM.

data pointer (FDP) is updated only for the x87 non-control instructions that
incur unmasked x87 exceptions.
- X86_FEATURE_ZERO_FCS_FDS: If CPUID.(EAX=07H,ECX=0H):EBX[bit 13] = 1, the

This driver does not support reading more than 255 bytes at once because
the register for storing the number of bytes to read is only 8 bits. Add
a max_read_len quirk to enforce this.
This was found when using this driver with the SFP driver, which was
previously reading all 256 bytes in the SFP EEPROM in one transaction.
This caused a bunch of hard-to-debug errors in the xiic driver since the
driver/logic was treating the number of bytes to read as zero.
Rejecting transactions that aren't supported at least allows the problem
to be diagnosed more easily.

taken. Depending on the hardware implementation of compare-and-swap
a high number of loop retries might happen.
Add an upper bound to the loop to force the fallback to spinlocks
after some time. A retry value of 100 should not impact any hardware
that does not have this issue.
With the retry limit the performance of an open-close testcase

To print the pathname that will be used by shell in the current
environment, 'command -v' is a standardized way. [1]
'which' is also often used in scripts, but it is less portable.
When I worked on commit bd55f96fa9fc ("kbuild: refactor cc-cross-prefix
implementation"), I was eager to use 'command -v' but it did not work.
(The reason is explained below.)
I kept 'which' as before but got rid of '> /dev/null 2>&1' as I
thought it was no longer needed. Sorry, I was wrong.
It works well on my Ubuntu machine, but Alexey Brodkin reports noisy
warnings on CentOS7 when 'which' fails to find the given command in
the PATH environment.
$ which foo
which: no foo in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin)
Given that behavior of 'which' depends on system (and it may not be
installed by default), I want to try 'command -v' once again.
The specification [1] clearly describes the behavior of 'command -v'
when the given command is not found:
Otherwise, no output shall be written and the exit status shall reflect
that the name was not found.
However, we need a little magic to use 'command -v' from Make.
$(shell ...) passes the argument to a subshell for execution, and
returns the standard output of the command.
Here is a trick. GNU Make may optimize this by executing the command
directly instead of forking a subshell, if no shell special characters
are found in the command and omitting the subshell will not change the
behavior.
In this case, no shell special character is used. So, Make will try
to run it directly. However, 'command' is a shell-builtin command,
then Make would fail to find it in the PATH environment:
$ make ARCH=m68k defconfig
make: command: Command not found
make: command: Command not found
make: command: Command not found
In fact, Make has a table of shell-builtin commands because it must
ask the shell to execute them.
Until recently, 'command' was missing in the table.
This issue was fixed by the following commit:
| commit 1af314465e5dfe3e8baa839a32a72e83c04f26ef
| Author: Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
| Date: Sun Nov 12 18:10:28 2017 -0500
|
| * job.c: Add "command" as a known shell built-in.
|
| This is not a POSIX shell built-in but it's common in UNIX shells.
| Reported by Nick Bowler <nbowler@draconx.ca>.
Because the latest release is GNU Make 4.2.1 in 2016, this commit is
not included in any released versions. (But some distributions may
have back-ported it.)
We need to trick Make to spawn a subshell. There are various ways to
do so:
1) Use a shell special character '~' as dummy
$(shell : ~; command -v $(c)gcc)
2) Use a variable reference that always expands to the empty string
(suggested by David Laight)
$(shell command$${x:+} -v $(c)gcc)
3) Use redirect
$(shell command -v $(c)gcc 2>/dev/null)
I chose 3) to not confuse people. The stderr would not be polluted
anyway, but it will provide extra safety, and is easy to understand.
Tested on Make 3.81, 3.82, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.1

Many userspace tools and services use the proportional-share policy of
the blkio/io cgroups controller. The CFQ I/O scheduler implemented
this policy for the legacy block layer. To modify the weight of a
group in case CFQ was in charge, the 'weight' parameter of the group
must be modified. On the other hand, the BFQ I/O scheduler implements
the same policy in blk-mq, but, with BFQ, the parameter to modify has
a different name: bfq.weight (forced choice until legacy block was
present, because two different policies cannot share a common parameter
in cgroups).
Due to CFQ legacy, most if not all userspace configurations still use
the parameter 'weight', and for the moment do not seem likely to be
changed. But, when CFQ went away with legacy block, such a parameter
ceased to exist.
So, a simple workaround has been proposed [1] to make all
configurations work: add a symlink, named weight, to bfq.weight. This
commit adds such a symlink.
