* x86, CPU, AMD: Move K8 TLB flush filter workaround to K8 codeBorislav Petkov2014-11-111-12/+11

* x86: kvm: use alternatives for VMCALL vs. VMMCALL if kernel text is read-onlyPaolo Bonzini2014-09-241-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86_64, kernel text mappings are mapped read-only with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. In that case, KVM will fail to patch VMCALL instructions to VMMCALL as required on AMD processors. The failure mode is currently a divide-by-zero exception, which obviously is a KVM bug that has to be fixed. However, picking the right instruction between VMCALL and VMMCALL will be faster and will help if you cannot upgrade the hypervisor.

| * x86/mm: Rip out complicated, out-of-date, buggy TLB flushingDave Hansen2014-07-311-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I think the flush_tlb_mm_range() code that tries to tune the flush sizes based on the CPU needs to get ripped out for several reasons: 1. It is obviously buggy. It uses mm->total_vm to judge the task's footprint in the TLB. It should certainly be using some measure of RSS, *NOT* ->total_vm since only resident memory can populate the TLB. 2. Haswell, and several other CPUs are missing from the intel_tlb_flushall_shift_set() function. Thus, it has been demonstrated to bitrot quickly in practice. 3. It is plain wrong in my vm: [ 0.037444] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0 [ 0.037444] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0 [ 0.037444] tlb_flushall_shift: 6 Which leads to it to never use invlpg. 4. The assumptions about TLB refill costs are wrong: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337782555-8088-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com (more on this in later patches) 5. I can not reproduce the original data: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59 I believe the sample times were too short. Running the benchmark in a loop yields times that vary quite a bit. Note that this leaves us with a static ceiling of 1 page. This is a conservative, dumb setting, and will be revised in a later patch. This also removes the code which attempts to predict whether we are flushing data or instructions. We expect instruction flushes to be relatively rare and not worth tuning for explicitly.

* | / mm, x86: Revisit tlb_flushall_shift tuning for page flushes except on IvyBridgeMel Gorman2014-01-251-4/+1
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was a large ebizzy performance regression that was bisected to commit 611ae8e3 (x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86). The problem was related to the tlb_flushall_shift tuning for IvyBridge which was altered. The problem is that it is not clear if the tuning values for each CPU family is correct as the methodology used to tune the values is unclear. This patch uses a conservative tlb_flushall_shift value for all CPU families except IvyBridge so the decision can be revisited if any regression is found as a result of this change. IvyBridge is an exception as testing with one methodology determined that the value of 2 is acceptable. Details are in the changelog for the patch "x86: mm: Change tlb_flushall_shift for IvyBridge". One important aspect of this to watch out for is Xen. The original commit log mentioned large performance gains on Xen. It's possible Xen is more sensitive to this value if it flushes small ranges of pages more frequently than workloads on bare metal typically do.

* | x86/cpu: Track legacy CPU model data only on 32-bit kernelsJan Beulich2013-10-261-3/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct cpu_dev's c_models is only ever set inside CONFIG_X86_32 conditionals (or code that's being built for 32-bit only), so there's no use of reserving the (empty) space for the model names in a 64-bit kernel. Similarly, c_size_cache is only used in the #else of a CONFIG_X86_64 conditional, so reserving space for (and in one case even initializing) that field is pointless for 64-bit kernels too. While moving both fields to the end of the structure, I also noticed that: - the c_models array size was one too small, potentially causing table_lookup_model() to return garbage on Intel CPUs (intel.c's instance was lacking the sentinel with family being zero), so the patch bumps that by one, - c_models' vendor sub-field was unused (and anyway redundant with the base structure's c_x86_vendor field), so the patch deletes it. Also rename the legacy fields so that their legacy nature stands out and comment their declarations.

* | x86, microcode, AMD: Make cpu_has_amd_erratum() use the correct struct ↵Torsten Kaiser2013-08-121-15/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cpuinfo_x86 cpu_has_amd_erratum() is buggy, because it uses the per-cpu cpu_info before it is filled by smp_store_boot_cpu_info() / smp_store_cpu_info(). If early microcode loading is enabled its collect_cpu_info_amd_early() will fill ->x86 and so the fallback to boot_cpu_data is not used. But ->x86_vendor was not filled and is still X86_VENDOR_INTEL resulting in no errata fixes getting applied and my system hangs on boot. Using cpu_info in cpu_has_amd_erratum() is wrong anyway: its only caller init_amd() will have a struct cpuinfo_x86 as parameter and the set_cpu_bug() that is controlled by cpu_has_amd_erratum() also only uses that struct. So pass the struct cpuinfo_x86 from init_amd() to cpu_has_amd_erratum() and the broken fallback can be dropped.

* x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 filesPaul Gortmaker2013-07-141-17/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files, and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" -- a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand. This has several advantages: 1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way early in the kernel startup). 2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large systems. 3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks. The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X. Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to __phys_addr()/__pa()." * 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (105 commits) x86, mm: Move reserving low memory later in initialization x86, doc: Clarify the use of asm("%edx") in uaccess.h x86, mm: Redesign get_user with a __builtin_choose_expr hack x86: Be consistent with data size in getuser.S x86, mm: Use a bitfield to mask nuisance get_user() warnings x86/kvm: Fix compile warning in kvm_register_steal_time() x86-32: Add support for 64bit get_user() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to alloc_remap() x86-32, mm: Remove reference to resume_map_numa_kva() x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping code x86/numa: Use __pa_nodebug() instead x86: Don't panic if can not alloc buffer for swiotlb mm: Add alloc_bootmem_low_pages_nopanic() x86, 64bit, mm: hibernate use generic mapping_init x86, 64bit, mm: Mark data/bss/brk to nx x86: Merge early kernel reserve for 32bit and 64bit x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation x86, kdump: Remove crashkernel range find limit for 64bit memblock: Add memblock_mem_size() x86, boot: Not need to check setup_header version for setup_data ...

* / x86, amd: Disable way access filter on Piledriver CPUsAndre Przywara2012-10-311-0/+14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Way Access Filter in recent AMD CPUs may hurt the performance of some workloads, caused by aliasing issues in the L1 cache. This patch disables it on the affected CPUs. The issue is similar to that one of last year: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1107.3/00041.html This new patch does not replace the old one, we just need another quirk for newer CPUs. The performance penalty without the patch depends on the circumstances, but is a bit less than the last year's 3%. The workloads affected would be those that access code from the same physical page under different virtual addresses, so different processes using the same libraries with ASLR or multiple instances of PIE-binaries. The code needs to be accessed simultaneously from both cores of the same compute unit. More details can be found here: http://developer.amd.com/Assets/SharedL1InstructionCacheonAMD15hCPU.pdf CPUs affected are anything with the core known as Piledriver. That includes the new parts of the AMD A-Series (aka Trinity) and the just released new CPUs of the FX-Series (aka Vishera). The model numbering is a bit odd here: FX CPUs have model 2, A-Series has model 10h, with possible extensions to 1Fh. Hence the range of model ids.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f7f286a910221 ("x86/amd: Re-enable CPU topology extensions in case BIOS has disabled it") wrongfully added code which used the AMD-specific {rd,wr}msr variants for no real reason. This caused boot panics on xen which wasn't initializing the {rd,wr}msr_safe_regs pv_ops members properly. This, in turn, caused a heated discussion leading to us reviewing all uses of the AMD-specific variants and removing them where unneeded (almost everywhere except an obscure K8 BIOS fix, see 6b0f43ddfa358). Finally, this patch switches to the standard {rd,wr}msr*_safe* variants which should've been used in the first place anyway and avoided unneeded excitation with xen.
