commit f9c9987bf5 upstream.
Monitoring idletask::thread_info::flags in mwait_play_dead() has been an
obvious choice as all what is needed is a cache line which is not written
by other CPUs.
But there is a use case where a "dead" CPU needs to be brought out of
MWAIT: kexec().
This is required as kexec() can overwrite text, pagetables, stacks and the
monitored cacheline of the original kernel. The latter causes MWAIT to
resume execution which obviously causes havoc on the kexec kernel which
results usually in triple faults.
Use a dedicated per CPU storage to prepare for that.

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.

x86/idt: Rework IDT setup for boot CPU
x86/cpu: Init AP exception handling from cpu_init_secondary()
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
de9b8f5dcb ("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:

Commit 1340ccfa9a ("x86,sched: Allow topologies where NUMA nodes

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 8cdddd182b ("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 496121c021 ("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 db865272d9 ("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).

The value freq_max/freq_base is a fundamental component of frequency
invariance calculations. It may come from a variety of sources such as MSRs
or ACPI data, tracking it down when troubleshooting a system could be
non-trivial. It is worth saving it in the kernel logs.

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.

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.

The product mcnt * arch_max_freq_ratio can overflows u64.
For context, a large value for arch_max_freq_ratio would be 5000,
corresponding to a turbo_freq/base_freq ratio of 5 (normally it's more like
1500-2000). A large increment frequency for the MPERF counter would be 5GHz
(the base clock of all CPUs on the market today is less than that). With
these figures, a CPU would need to go without a scheduler tick for around 8
days for the u64 overflow to happen. It is unlikely, but the check is
warranted.
Under similar conditions, the difference acnt of two consecutive APERF
readings can overflow as well.
In these circumstances is appropriate to disable frequency invariant
accounting: the feature relies on measures of the clock frequency done at
every scheduler tick, which need to be "fresh" to be at all meaningful.
A note on i386: prior to version 5.1, the GCC compiler didn't have the
builtin function __builtin_mul_overflow. In these GCC versions the macro
check_mul_overflow needs __udivdi3() to do (u64)a/b, which the kernel
doesn't provide. For this reason this change fails to build on i386 if
GCC<5.1, and we protect the entire frequency invariant code behind
CONFIG_X86_64 (special thanks to "kbuild test robot" <lkp@intel.com>).

... or the odyssey of trying to disable the stack protector for the
function which generates the stack canary value.
The whole story started with Sergei reporting a boot crash with a kernel
built with gcc-10:
Kernel panic — not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary
CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.6.0-rc5—00235—gfffb08b37df9 #139
Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. To be filled by O.E.M./H77M—D3H, BIOS F12 11/14/2013
Call Trace:
dump_stack
panic
? start_secondary
__stack_chk_fail
start_secondary
secondary_startup_64
-—-[ end Kernel panic — not syncing: stack—protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: start_secondary
This happens because gcc-10 tail-call optimizes the last function call
in start_secondary() - cpu_startup_entry() - and thus emits a stack
canary check which fails because the canary value changes after the
boot_init_stack_canary() call.
To fix that, the initial attempt was to mark the one function which
generates the stack canary with:
__attribute__((optimize("-fno-stack-protector"))) ... start_secondary(void *unused)
however, using the optimize attribute doesn't work cumulatively
as the attribute does not add to but rather replaces previously
supplied optimization options - roughly all -fxxx options.
The key one among them being -fno-omit-frame-pointer and thus leading to
not present frame pointer - frame pointer which the kernel needs.
The next attempt to prevent compilers from tail-call optimizing
the last function call cpu_startup_entry(), shy of carving out
start_secondary() into a separate compilation unit and building it with
-fno-stack-protector, was to add an empty asm("").
This current solution was short and sweet, and reportedly, is supported
by both compilers but we didn't get very far this time: future (LTO?)
optimization passes could potentially eliminate this, which leads us
to the third attempt: having an actual memory barrier there which the
compiler cannot ignore or move around etc.
That should hold for a long time, but hey we said that about the other
two solutions too so...

The single user could have called freeze_secondary_cpus() directly.
Since this function was a source of confusion, remove it as it's
just a pointless wrapper.
While at it, rename enable_nonboot_cpus() to thaw_secondary_cpus() to
preserve the naming symmetry.

The static key arch_scale_freq_key only needs to be enabled once (at
boot). This change fixes a bug by which the key was enabled every time cpu0
is started, even as a secondary CPU during cpu hotplug. Secondary CPUs are
started from the idle thread: setting a static key from there means
acquiring a lock and may result in sleeping in the idle task, causing CPU
lockup.
Another consequence of this change is that init_counter_refs() is now
called on each CPU correctly; previously the function on_each_cpu() was
used, but it was called at boot when the only online cpu is cpu0.

Some hypervisors such as VMWare ESXi 5.5 advertise support for
X86_FEATURE_APERFMPERF but then fill all MSR's with zeroes. In particular,
MSR_PLATFORM_INFO set to zero tricks the code that wants to know the base
clock frequency of the CPU (highest non-turbo frequency), producing a
division by zero when computing the ratio turbo_freq/base_freq necessary
for frequency invariant accounting.
It is to be noted that even if MSR_PLATFORM_INFO contained the appropriate
data, APERF and MPERF are constantly zero on ESXi 5.5, thus freq-invariance
couldn't be done in principle (not that it would make a lot of sense in a
VM anyway). The real problem is advertising X86_FEATURE_APERFMPERF. This
appears to be fixed in more recent versions: ESXi 6.7 doesn't advertise
that feature.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and
NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended
result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)
- PSI fixes and optimizations.
- RT scheduling capacity awareness fixes & improvements.
- Optimize the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED constraints code.
- Misc fixes, cleanups and optimizations - see the changelog for
details"

On some platforms such as the Dell XPS 13 laptop the firmware disables turbo
when the machine is disconnected from AC, and viceversa it enables it again
when it's reconnected. In these cases a _PPC ACPI notification is issued.
The scheduler needs to know freq_max for frequency-invariant calculations.
To account for turbo availability to come and go, record freq_max at boot as
if turbo was available and store it in a helper variable. Use a setter
function to swap between freq_base and freq_max every time turbo goes off or on.

The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant
accounting. On all ATOM CPUs prior to Goldmont, set freq_max to the 1-core
turbo ratio.
We intended to perform tests validating that this patch doesn't regress in
terms of energy efficiency, given that this is the primary concern on Atom
processors. Alas, we found out that turbostat doesn't support reading RAPL
interfaces on our test machine (Airmont), and we don't have external equipment
to measure power consumption; all we have is the performance results of the
benchmarks we ran.

tbench, hackbench and kernbench performed the same under all three kernels;
dbench ran faster with intel_pstate/powersave and the git unit tests were a
lot faster with intel_pstate/powersave and invariant schedutil wrt the
baseline. Not that any of this is terrbily interesting anyway, one doesn't buy
an Atom system to go fast. Power consumption regressions aren't expected but
we lack the equipment to make that measurement. Turbostat seems to think that
reading RAPL on this machine isn't a good idea and we're trusting that
decision.

The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant
accounting. On GOLDMONT (aka Apollo Lake), GOLDMONT_D (aka Denverton) and
GOLDMONT_PLUS CPUs (aka Gemini Lake) set freq_max to the highest frequency
reported by the CPU.
The encoding of turbo ratios for GOLDMONT* is identical to the one for
SKYLAKE_X, but we treat the Atom case apart because we want to set freq_max to
a higher value, thus the ratio freq_curr/freq_max to be lower, leading to more
conservative frequency selections (favoring power efficiency).

The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant
accounting. On Xeon Phi CPUs set freq_max to the second-highest frequency
reported by the CPU.
Xeon Phi CPUs such as Knights Landing and Knights Mill typically have either
one or two turbo frequencies; in the former case that's 100 MHz above the base
frequency, in the latter case the two levels are 100 MHz and 200 MHz above
base frequency.
We set freq_max to the second-highest frequency reported by the CPU. This
could be the base frequency (if only one turbo level is available) or the first
turbo level (if two levels are available). The rationale is to compromise
between power efficiency or performance -- going straight to max turbo would
favor efficiency and blindly using base freq would favor performance.
For reference, this is how MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT must be parsed on a Xeon Phi
to get the available frequencies (taken from a comment in turbostat's sources):
[0] -- Reserved
[7:1] -- Base value of number of active cores of bucket 1.
[15:8] -- Base value of freq ratio of bucket 1.
[20:16] -- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 2.
i.e. active cores of bucket 2 =
active cores of bucket 1 + delta
[23:21] -- Negative delta of freq ratio of bucket 2.
i.e. freq ratio of bucket 2 =
freq ratio of bucket 1 - delta
[28:24]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 3.
[31:29]-- -ve delta of freq ratio of bucket 3.
[36:32]-- +ve delta of number of active cores of bucket 4.
[39:37]-- -ve delta of freq ratio of bucket 4.

1. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION: TBENCH +5%
-------------------------------------
A performance evaluation was conducted on a Knights Mill machine (see "Test
Setup" below), were the frequency-invariance patch (on schedutil) is compared
to both non-invariant schedutil and active intel_pstate with powersave: all
three tested kernels behave the same performance-wise and with regard to power
consumption (performance per watt). The only notable difference is tbench:
comparison ratio of performance with baseline; 1.00 means neutral,
higher is better:

tbench 1.04 1.05
performance-per-watt ratios with baseline; 1.00 means neutral, higher is better:

which essentially means that frequency-invariant schedutil is 5% better than
baseline, the same as intel_pstate+powersave.
