* perf/x86/kvm: Fix Host-Only/Guest-Only counting with SVM disabledJoerg Roedel2012-03-024-4/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control register and SVM is disabled in EFER. This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit in the performance counter control register when SVM is not enabled. The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is disabled the counter should not run at all and the not-counting is the intended behaviour.

| * x86: Specify a size for the cmp in the NMI handlerSteven Rostedt2012-02-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linus noticed that the cmp used to check if the code segment is __KERNEL_CS or not did not specify a size. Perhaps it does not matter as H. Peter Anvin noted that user space can not set the bottom two bits of the %cs register. But it's best not to let the assembly choose and change things between different versions of gas, but instead just pick the size. Four bytes are used to compare the saved code segment against __KERNEL_CS. Perhaps this might mess up Xen, but we can fix that when the time comes. Also I noticed that there was another non-specified cmp that checks the special stack variable if it is 1 or 0. This too probably doesn't matter what cmp is used, but this patch uses cmpl just to make it non ambiguous.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the NMI handler tests if it is nested by checking the special variable saved on the stack (set during NMI handling) and whether the saved stack is the NMI stack as well (to prevent the race when the variable is set to zero). But userspace may set their %rsp to any value as long as they do not derefence it, and it may make it point to the NMI stack, which will prevent NMIs from triggering while the userspace app is running. (I tested this, and it is indeed the case) Add another check to determine nested NMIs by looking at the saved %cs (code segment register) and making sure that it is the kernel code segment.

Changing it back to WB - not so much. The crux of the matter is that the code that does this (__page_change_att_set_clr) has only limited information so when it tries to the change it gets the "raw" unfiltered information instead of the properly filtered one - and the "raw" one tell it that PSE bit is on (while infact it is not).

But since that posting has gone nowhere I am proposing this band-aid solution so that at least users don't get the page corruption (the pages that are WC don't get changed to WB and end up being recycled for filesystem or other things causing mysterious crashes). The negative impact of this patch is that users of WC flag (which are InfiniBand, radeon, nouveau drivers) won't be able to set that flag - so they are going to see performance degradation.

* | | i387: support lazy restore of FPU stateLinus Torvalds2012-02-205-15/+29

To do this, we add two new data fields: - a percpu 'fpu_owner_task' variable that gets written any time we update the "has_fpu" field, and thus acts as a kind of back-pointer to the task that owns the CPU. The exception is when we save the FPU state as part of a context switch - if the save can keep the FPU state around, we leave the 'fpu_owner_task' variable pointing at the task whose FP state still remains on the CPU. - a per-thread 'last_cpu' field, that indicates which CPU that thread used its FPU on last. We update this on every context switch (writing an invalid CPU number if the last context switch didn't leave the FPU in a lazily usable state), so we know that *that* thread has done nothing else with the FPU since. These two fields together can be used when next switching back to the task to see if the CPU still matches: if 'fpu_owner_task' matches the task we are switching to, we know that no other task (or kernel FPU usage) touched the FPU on this CPU in the meantime, and if the current CPU number matches the 'last_cpu' field, we know that this thread did no other FP work on any other CPU, so the FPU state on the CPU must match what was saved on last context switch. In that case, we can avoid the 'f[x]rstor' entirely, and just clear the CR0.TS bit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This inlines what is usually just a couple of instructions, but more importantly it also fixes the theoretical error case (can that FPU restore really ever fail?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes sure we clear the FPU usage counter for newly created tasks, just so that we start off in a known state (for example, don't try to preload the FPU state on the first task switch etc). It also fixes a thinko in when we increment the fpu_counter at task switch time, introduced by commit 34ddc81a230b ("i387: re-introduce FPU state preloading at context switch time"). We should increment the *new* task fpu_counter, not the old task, and only if we decide to use that state (whether lazily or preloaded). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* | | i387: re-introduce FPU state preloading at context switch timeLinus Torvalds2012-02-184-42/+133

However, instead of simply reverting the removal, this reimplements preloading with several fixes, most notably - properly abstracted as a true FPU state switch, rather than as open-coded save and restore with various hacks. In particular, implementing it as a proper FPU state switch allows us to optimize the CR0.TS flag accesses: there is no reason to set the TS bit only to then almost immediately clear it again. CR0 accesses are quite slow and expensive, don't flip the bit back and forth for no good reason. - Make sure that the same model works for both x86-32 and x86-64, so that there are no gratuitous differences between the two due to the way they save and restore segment state differently due to architectural differences that really don't matter to the FPU state. - Avoid exposing the "preload" state to the context switch routines, and in particular allow the concept of lazy state restore: if nothing else has used the FPU in the meantime, and the process is still on the same CPU, we can avoid restoring state from memory entirely, just re-expose the state that is still in the FPU unit. That optimized lazy restore isn't actually implemented here, but the infrastructure is set up for it. Of course, older CPU's that use 'fnsave' to save the state cannot take advantage of this, since the state saving also trashes the state. In other words, there is now an actual _design_ to the FPU state saving, rather than just random historical baggage. Hopefully it's easier to follow as a result.

* | | i387: move TS_USEDFPU flag from thread_info to task_structLinus Torvalds2012-02-186-32/+30

This fixes two independent bugs at the same time: - changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was supposed to indicate). So perfectly valid code could (and did) do ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK; and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store instructions. Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store. In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low fat and preemption-safe. - On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd thread_info copy aliases. This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel away the FPU state. (It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers). It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie scheduling). And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is found there too. Thanks to Arjan Van De Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for pointing us to the %esp issue.

In order to not leak FIP state from one process to another, we need to do a floating point load after the fxsave of the old process, and before the fxrstor of the new FPU state. That resets the state to the (uninteresting) kernel load, rather than some potentially sensitive user information. We used to do this directly after the FPU state save, but that is actually very inconvenient, since it (a) corrupts what is potentially perfectly good FPU state that we might want to lazy avoid restoring later and (b) on x86-64 it resulted in a very annoying ordering constraint, where "__unlazy_fpu()" in the task switch needs to be delayed until after the DS segment has been reloaded just to get the new DS value. Coupling it to the fxrstor instead of the fxsave automatically avoids both of these issues, and also ensures that we only do it when actually necessary (the FP state after a save may never actually get used). It's simply a much more natural place for the leaked state cleanup. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

And the preload code has some rather subtle interactions with both paravirtualization support and segment state restore, so it's not nearly as simple as it should be. Also, now that we no longer necessarily depend on a single bit (ie TS_USEDFPU) for keeping track of the state of the FPU, we migth be able to do better. If we are really switching between two processes that keep touching the FP state, save/restore is inevitable, but in the case of having one process that does most of the FPU usage, we may actually be able to do much better than the preloading. In particular, we may be able to keep track of which CPU the process ran on last, and also per CPU keep track of which process' FP state that CPU has. For modern CPU's that don't destroy the FPU contents on save time, that would allow us to do a lazy restore by just re-enabling the existing FPU state - with no restore cost at all!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This creates three helper functions that do the TS_USEDFPU accesses, and makes everybody that used to do it by hand use those helpers instead. In addition, there's a couple of helper functions for the "change both CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU at the same time" case, and the places that do that together have been changed to use those. That means that we have fewer random places that open-code this situation. The intent is partly to clarify the code without actually changing any semantics yet (since we clearly still have some hard to reproduce bug in this area), but also to make it much easier to use another approach entirely to caching the CR0.TS bit for software accesses. Right now we use a bit in the thread-info 'status' variable (this patch does not change that), but we might want to make it a full field of its own or even make it a per-cpu variable.

However, that check actually pinpointed a (fundamental) race where we do cause that exception as part of the signal stack FPU state save/restore code. Because we use the floating point instructions themselves to save and restore state directly from user mode, we cannot do that atomically with testing the TS_USEDFPU bit: the user mode access itself may cause a page fault, which causes a task switch, which saves and restores the FP/MMX state from the kernel buffers. This kind of "recursive" FP state save is fine per se, but it means that when the signal stack save/restore gets restarted, it will now take the '#NM' exception we originally tried to avoid. With preemption this can happen even without the page fault - but because of the user access, we cannot just disable preemption around the save/restore instruction. There are various ways to solve this, including using the "enable/disable_page_fault()" helpers to not allow page faults at all during the sequence, and fall back to copying things by hand without the use of the native FP state save/restore instructions. However, the simplest thing to do is to just allow the #NM from kernel space, but fix the race in setting and clearing CR0.TS that this all exposed: the TS bit changes and the TS_USEDFPU bit absolutely have to be atomic wrt scheduling, so while the actual state save/restore can be interrupted and restarted, the act of actually clearing/setting CR0.TS and the TS_USEDFPU bit together must not. Instead of just adding random "preempt_disable/enable()" calls to what is already excessively ugly code, this introduces some helper functions that mostly mirror the "kernel_fpu_begin/end()" functionality, just for the user state instead. Those helper functions should probably eventually replace the other ad-hoc CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU tests too, but I'll need to think about it some more: the task switching functionality in particular needs to expose the difference between the 'prev' and 'next' threads, while the new helper functions intentionally were written to only work with 'current'.

So if anybody did enable them, they'd get one spurious warning. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* | | i387: make irq_fpu_usable() tests more robustLinus Torvalds2012-02-132-8/+47

That *can* be ok, but the tests for when it was ok were somewhat suspect. We cannot touch the thread-specific status bits either, so we'd better check that we're not going to try to save FP state or anything like that. Now, it may be that the TS bit is always cleared *before* we set the USEDFPU bit (and only set when we had already cleared the USEDFP before), so the TS bit test may actually have been sufficient, but it certainly was not obviously so. So this explicitly verifies that we will not touch the TS_USEDFPU bit, and adds a few related sanity-checks. Because it seems that somehow AES-NI is corrupting user FP state. The cause is not clear, and this patch doesn't fix it, but while debugging it I really wanted the code to be more obviously correct and robust.

The patch fixes the problem by avoiding the double calls. We pass a new argument to perf_adjust_period() to indicate whether or not the event is already stopped. We can't just remove the start/stop from that function because it's called from __perf_event_overflow where the event needs to be reloaded via a stop/start back-toback call. The patch reintroduces the assertion in x86_pmu_start() which was removed by commit: 84f2b9b ("perf: Remove deprecated WARN_ON_ONCE()") In this second version, we've added calls to disable/enable PMU during unthrottling or frequency adjustment based on bug report of spurious NMI interrupts from Eric Dumazet.

There is a valid path where they can trigger but it is harmless. The assertion can be triggered with: $ perf record -e instructions:pp .... Leading to paths: intel_pmu_pebs_enable intel_pmu_enable_event x86_perf_event_set_period x86_pmu_start perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context perf_event_task_tick scheduler_tick And: intel_pmu_lbr_enable intel_pmu_enable_event x86_perf_event_set_period x86_pmu_start perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context. perf_event_task_tick scheduler_tick cpuc->enabled is always on because when we get to perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context() the PMU is not totally disabled. Furthermore when we need to adjust a period, we only stop the event we need to change and not the entire PMU. Thus, when we re-enable, cpuc->enabled is already set. Note that when we stop the event, both pebs and lbr are stopped if necessary (and possible).

(depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid) Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple faults and finally crashs.

Testing with a VersaLogic Ocelot (VL-EPMs-21a rev 1.00 w/ BIOS 6.5.102) revealed the following regarding the reboot hang problem: - v2.6.37 reboot=bios was needed. - v2.6.38-rc1: behavior changed, reboot=acpi is needed, reboot=kbd and reboot=bios results in system hang. - v2.6.38: VersaLogic patch (e19e074 "x86: Fix reboot problem on VersaLogic Menlow boards") was applied prior to v2.6.38-rc7. This patch sets a quirk for VersaLogic Menlow boards that forces the use of reboot=bios, which doesn't work anymore. - v3.2: It seems that commit 660e34c ("x86: Reorder reboot method preferences") changed the default reboot method to acpi prior to v3.0-rc1, which means the default behavior is appropriate for the Ocelot. No VersaLogic quirk is required. The Ocelot board used for testing can successfully reboot w/out having to pass any reboot= arguments for all 3 current versions of the BIOS.

For example, in the case of a softlockup we now see the much more informative: Message from syslogd@intel-s3e37-04 at Jan 25 10:18:06 ... BUG: soft lockup - CPU4 stuck for 60s! instead of the above confusing messages. AFAICT, the messages no longer have to be KERN_EMERG. In the most important case of a panic we set console_verbose(). As for the other less severe cases the correct data is output to the console and /var/log/messages. Successfully tested by me using the drivers/misc/lkdtm.c module.

When a spin lock is contended and xl->spinners is modified the two bytes immediately after the spin lock would be corrupted. This is a regression caused by 84eb950db13ca40a0572ce9957e14723500943d6 (x86, ticketlock: Clean up types and accessors) which reduced the size of arch_spinlock_t. Fix this by making xl->spinners a u8 if NR_CPUS < 256. A BUILD_BUG_ON() is also added to check the sizes of the two structures are compatible. In many cases this was not noticable as there would often be padding bytes after the lock (e.g., if any of CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, or CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC were enabled). The bnx2 driver is affected. In struct bnx2, phy_lock and indirect_lock may have no padding after them. Contention on phy_lock would corrupt indirect_lock making it appear locked and the driver would deadlock.

E.g. for family 15h we have to load microcode_amd_fam15h.bin instead of microcode_amd.bin Rationale is that starting with family 15h patch size is larger than 2KB which was hard coded as maximum patch size in various microcode loaders (not just Linux). Container files which include patches larger than 2KB cause different kinds of trouble with such old patch loaders. Thus we have to ensure that the default container file provides only patches with size less than 2KB.
