2010-09-03perf, x86: Try to handle unknown nmis with an enabled PMURobert Richter
When the PMU is enabled it is valid to have unhandled nmis, two events could trigger 'simultaneously' raising two back-to-back NMIs. If the first NMI handles both, the latter will be empty and daze the CPU. The solution to avoid an 'unknown nmi' massage in this case was simply to stop the nmi handler chain when the PMU is enabled by stating the nmi was handled. This has the drawback that a) we can not detect unknown nmis anymore, and b) subsequent nmi handlers are not called. This patch addresses this. Now, we check this unknown NMI if it could be a PMU back-to-back NMI. Otherwise we pass it and let the kernel handle the unknown nmi. This is a debug log: cpu #6, nmi #32333, skip_nmi #32330, handled = 1, time = 1934364430 cpu #6, nmi #32334, skip_nmi #32330, handled = 1, time = 1934704616 cpu #6, nmi #32335, skip_nmi #32336, handled = 2, time = 1936032320 cpu #6, nmi #32336, skip_nmi #32336, handled = 0, time = 1936034139 cpu #6, nmi #32337, skip_nmi #32336, handled = 1, time = 1936120100 cpu #6, nmi #32338, skip_nmi #32336, handled = 1, time = 1936404607 cpu #6, nmi #32339, skip_nmi #32336, handled = 1, time = 1937983416 cpu #6, nmi #32340, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 2, time = 1938201032 cpu #6, nmi #32341, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 0, time = 1938202830 cpu #6, nmi #32342, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 1, time = 1938443743 cpu #6, nmi #32343, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 1, time = 1939956552 cpu #6, nmi #32344, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 1, time = 1940073224 cpu #6, nmi #32345, skip_nmi #32341, handled = 1, time = 1940485677 cpu #6, nmi #32346, skip_nmi #32347, handled = 2, time = 1941947772 cpu #6, nmi #32347, skip_nmi #32347, handled = 1, time = 1941949818 cpu #6, nmi #32348, skip_nmi #32347, handled = 0, time = 1941951591 Uhhuh.

[3] For back-to-back nmi detection there are the following rules: The PMU nmi handler was handling more than one counter and no counter was handled in the subsequent nmi (see [1] and [2] above). There is another case if there are two subsequent back-to-back nmis [3]. The 2nd is detected as back-to-back because the first handled more than one counter. If the second handles one counter and the 3rd handles nothing, we drop the 3rd nmi because it could be a back-to-back nmi.

2010-09-03perf, x86: Fix accidentally ack'ing a second event on intel perf counterDon Zickus
During testing of a patch to stop having the perf subsytem swallow nmis, it was uncovered that Nehalem boxes were randomly getting unknown nmis when using the perf tool. Moving the ack'ing of the PMI closer to when we get the status allows the hardware to properly re-set the PMU bit signaling another PMI was triggered during the processing of the first PMI. This allows the new logic for dealing with the shortcomings of multiple PMIs to handle the extra NMI by 'eat'ing it later. Now one can wonder why are we getting a second PMI when we disable all the PMUs in the begining of the NMI handler to prevent such a case, for that I do not know. But I know the fix below helps deal with this quirk. Tested on multiple Nehalems where the problem was occuring. With the patch, the code now loops a second time to handle the second PMI (whereas before it was not).

It is not immediately clear what this option causes to become ignored.

2010-08-20x86, tsc, sched: Recompute cyc2ns_offset's during resume from sleep statesSuresh Siddha
TSC's get reset after suspend/resume (even on cpu's with invariant TSC which runs at a constant rate across ACPI P-, C- and T-states). And in some systems BIOS seem to reinit TSC to arbitrary large value (still sync'd across cpu's) during resume. This leads to a scenario of scheduler rq->clock (sched_clock_cpu()) less than rq->age_stamp (introduced in 2.6.32). This leads to a big value returned by scale_rt_power() and the resulting big group power set by the update_group_power() is causing improper load balancing between busy and idle cpu's after suspend/resume. This resulted in multi-threaded workloads (like kernel-compilation) go slower after suspend/resume cycle on core i5 laptops. Fix this by recomputing cyc2ns_offset's during resume, so that sched_clock() continues from the point where it was left off during suspend.

Since these codepaths are not protected from concurrent access due to the fact that there's no sane reason for making an already complex code unnecessarily more complex - we hit the issue only when insanely switching cores off- and online - serialize hotplugging cores on the sysfs level and be done with it.

This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's the scenario: 1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page table for booting a secondary CPU. 2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M) mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum 383 to occur. 3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined. 4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large. 5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this TLB entry remains because it is global. 6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry covers a large global page not accessible to userspace. 7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the machine. There are two ways to fix this issue: 1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard to understand and with performance implications 2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit does. This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases. -v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the trampoline page table.

2010-08-17Make do_execve() take a const filename pointerDavid Howells
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.
