[Purpose of this patch]
As Vaibhav explained in the thread below, tracepoints for irq vectors
are useful.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/mm-commits/msg85707.html
<snip>
The current interrupt traces from irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
provide when an interrupt is handled. They provide good data about when
the system has switched to kernel space and how it affects the currently
running processes.
There are some IRQ vectors which trigger the system into kernel space,
which are not handled in generic IRQ handlers. Tracing such events gives
us the information about IRQ interaction with other system events.
The trace also tells where the system is spending its time. We want to
know which cores are handling interrupts and how they are affecting other
processes in the system. Also, the trace provides information about when
the cores are idle and which interrupts are changing that state.
<snip>
On the other hand, my usecase is tracing just local timer event and
getting a value of instruction pointer.
I suggested to add an argument local timer event to get instruction pointer before.
But there is another way to get it with external module like systemtap.
So, I don't need to add any argument to irq vector tracepoints now.
[Patch Description]
Vaibhav's patch shared a trace point ,irq_vector_entry/irq_vector_exit, in all events.
But there is an above use case to trace specific irq_vector rather than tracing all events.
In this case, we are concerned about overhead due to unwanted events.
So, add following tracepoints instead of introducing irq_vector_entry/exit.
so that we can enable them independently.
- local_timer_vector
- reschedule_vector
- call_function_vector
- call_function_single_vector
- irq_work_entry_vector
- error_apic_vector
- thermal_apic_vector
- threshold_apic_vector
- spurious_apic_vector
- x86_platform_ipi_vector
Also, introduce a logic switching IDT at enabling/disabling time so that a time penalty
makes a zero when tracepoints are disabled. Detailed explanations are as follows.
- Create trace irq handlers with entering_irq()/exiting_irq().
- Create a new IDT, trace_idt_table, at boot time by adding a logic to
_set_gate(). It is just a copy of original idt table.
- Register the new handlers for tracpoints to the new IDT by introducing
macros to alloc_intr_gate() called at registering time of irq_vector handlers.
- Add checking, whether irq vector tracing is on/off, into load_current_idt().
This has to be done below debug checking for these reasons.
- Switching to debug IDT may be kicked while tracing is enabled.
- On the other hands, switching to trace IDT is kicked only when debugging
is disabled.
In addition, the new IDT is created only when CONFIG_TRACING is enabled to avoid being
used for other purposes.

When implementing tracepoints in interrupt handers, if the tracepoints are
simply added in the performance sensitive path of interrupt handers,
it may cause potential performance problem due to the time penalty.
To solve the problem, an idea is to prepare non-trace/trace irq handers and
switch their IDTs at the enabling/disabling time.
So, let's introduce entering_irq()/exiting_irq() for pre/post-
processing of each irq handler.
A way to use them is as follows.
Non-trace irq handler:
smp_irq_handler()
{
entering_irq(); /* pre-processing of this handler */
__smp_irq_handler(); /*
* common logic between non-trace and trace handlers
* in a vector.
*/
exiting_irq(); /* post-processing of this handler */
}
Trace irq_handler:
smp_trace_irq_handler()
{
entering_irq(); /* pre-processing of this handler */
trace_irq_entry(); /* tracepoint for irq entry */
__smp_irq_handler(); /*
* common logic between non-trace and trace handlers
* in a vector.
*/
trace_irq_exit(); /* tracepoint for irq exit */
exiting_irq(); /* post-processing of this handler */
}
If tracepoints can place outside entering_irq()/exiting_irq() as follows,
it looks cleaner.
smp_trace_irq_handler()
{
trace_irq_entry();
smp_irq_handler();
trace_irq_exit();
}
But it doesn't work.
The problem is with irq_enter/exit() being called. They must be called before
trace_irq_enter/exit(), because of the rcu_irq_enter() must be called before
any tracepoints are used, as tracepoints use rcu to synchronize.
As a possible alternative, we may be able to call irq_enter() first as follows
if irq_enter() can nest.
smp_trace_irq_hander()
{
irq_entry();
trace_irq_entry();
smp_irq_handler();
trace_irq_exit();
irq_exit();
}
But it doesn't work, either.
If irq_enter() is nested, it may have a time penalty because it has to check if it
was already called or not. The time penalty is not desired in performance sensitive
paths even if it is tiny.

The package power limit notification interrupt is primarily for
system diagnosis, and should not be blindly enabled on every
system by default -- particuarly since Linux does nothing in the
handler except count how many times it has been called...
Add a new kernel cmdline parameter "int_pln_enable" for situations where
users want to oberve these events via existing system counters:

$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/thermal_throttle/*

Package power limits are common on some systems under some conditions --
so printing console messages when limits are reached
causes unnecessary customer concern and support calls.
Note that even with these console messages gone,
the events can still be observed via system counters:
$ grep TRM /proc/interrupts
Shows total thermal interrupts, which includes both power
limit notifications and thermal throttling interrupts.
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/thermal_throttle/*
Will show what caused those interrupts, core and package
throttling and power limit notifications.

However, a look at cmci_rediscover shows that it can be simplified quite
a bit, apart from solving the above issue. It invokes functions that
take spin locks with interrupts disabled, and hence it can run in atomic
context. Also, it is run in the CPU_POST_DEAD phase, so the dying CPU
is already dead and out of the cpu_online_mask. So take these points into
account and simplify the code, and thereby also fix the above issue.

Currently number of error reporting register banks is hardcoded to
6 on AMD processors. This may break in virtualized scenarios when
a hypervisor prefers to report fewer banks than what the physical
HW provides.
Since number of supported banks is reported in MSR_IA32_MCG_CAP[7:0]
that's what we should use.

However, this info is not of any importance to userspace - it should
rather get the actual error count it has been thresholded already from
MCi_STATUS[38:52].
So drop this before it becomes a used interface (good thing we caught
this early in 3.7-rc1, right after the merge window closed).

The ACPI spec doesn't provide for a way for the bios to pass down
recommended thresholds to the OS on a _per-bank_ basis. This patch adds
a new boot option, which if passed, tells Linux to use CMCI thresholds
set by the bios.
As fail-safe, we initialize threshold to 1 if some banks have not been
initialized by the bios and warn the user.

On Intel systems corrected machine check interrupts (CMCI) may be sent to
multiple logical processors; possibly to all processors on the affected
socket (SDM Volume 3B "15.5.1 CMCI Local APIC Interface"). This means
that a persistent error (such as a stuck bit in ECC memory) may cause
a storm of interrupts that greatly hinders or prevents forward progress
(probably on many processors).
To solve this we keep track of the rate at which each processor sees
CMCI. If we exceed a threshold, we disable CMCI delivery and switch to
polling the machine check banks. If the storm subsides (none of the
affected processors see any more errors for a complete poll interval) we
re-enable CMCI.
[Tony: Added console messages when storm begins/ends and increased storm
threshold from 5 to 15 so we have a few more logged entries before we
disable interrupts and start dropping reports]

cmci_discover() works out which machine check banks support CMCI, and
which of those are shared by multiple logical processors. It uses this
information to ensure that exactly one cpu is designated the owner of
each bank so that when interrupts are broadcast to multiple cpus, only one
of them will look in a shared bank to log the error and clear the bank.
At boot time cmci_discover() performs this task silently. But during
certain cpu hotplug operations it prints out a set of summary lines
like this:
CPU 35 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3 CMCI:5 CMCI:6 CMCI:7 CMCI:8 CMCI:9 CMCI:10 CMCI:11
CPU 1 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 39 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 38 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 32 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 37 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 36 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
CPU 34 MCA banks CMCI:0 CMCI:1 CMCI:3
The value of these messages seems very low. A user might painstakingly
cross-check against the data sheet for a processor to ensure that all
CMCI supported banks are correctly reported, but this seems improbable.
If users really wanted to do this, we should print the information at
boot time too.
Remove the messages.

raise_mce() has a code path which does not disable preemption when the
raise_local() is called. The per cpu variable access in raise_local()
depends on preemption being disabled to be functional. So that code
path was either never tested or never tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT
enabled.
Add the missing preempt_disable/enable() pair around the call.

x86, nops: Missing break resulting in incorrect selection on Intel
x86: CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y is no longer experimental
Sandy Bridge processors follow the SDM (Vol 3B, Table 15-20) and
set both the RIPV and EIPV bits in the MCG_STATUS register to
zero for machine checks during instruction fetch. This is more
than a little counter-intuitive and means that Linux cannot
recover from these errors. Rather than insert special case code
at several places in mce.c and mce-severity.c, we pretend the
EIPV bit was set for just this case early in processing the
machine check.

there are 3 funcs which need to be _initcalled in a logic sequence:
1. xen_late_init_mcelog
2. mcheck_init_device
3. threshold_init_device
xen_late_init_mcelog must register xen_mce_chrdev_device before
native mce_chrdev_device registration if running under xen platform;
mcheck_init_device should be inited before threshold_init_device to
initialize mce_device, otherwise a a NULL ptr dereference will cause panic.
so we use following _initcalls
1. device_initcall(xen_late_init_mcelog);
2. device_initcall_sync(mcheck_init_device);
3. late_initcall(threshold_init_device);
when running under xen, the initcall order is 1,2,3;
on baremetal, we skip 1 and we do only 2 and 3.

When MCA error occurs, it would be handled by Xen hypervisor first,
and then the error information would be sent to initial domain for logging.
This patch gets error information from Xen hypervisor and convert
Xen format error into Linux format mcelog. This logic is basically
self-contained, not touching other kernel components.
By using tools like mcelog tool users could read specific error information,
like what they did under native Linux.
To test follow directions outlined in Documentation/acpi/apei/einj.txt

In commit dad1743e59 ("x86/mce: Only restart instruction after machine
check recovery if it is safe") we fixed mce_notify_process() to force a
signal to the current process if it was not restartable (RIPV bit not
set in MCG_STATUS). But doing it here means that the process doesn't
get told the virtual address of the fault via siginfo_t->si_addr. This
would prevent application level recovery from the fault.
Make a new MF_MUST_KILL flag bit for memory_failure() et al. to use so
that we will provide the right information with the signal.
