f7448548a9 x86, mtrr: Avoid MTRR reprogramming on BP during boot on UP platforms
Markus Kohn ran into a hard hang regression on an acer aspire
1310, when acpi is enabled. git bisect showed the following
commit as the bad one that introduced the boot regression.

	Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>

	    x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init

Because of the UP configuration of that platform,
native_smp_prepare_cpus() bailed out (in smp_sanity_check())
before doing the set_mtrr_aps_delayed_init()

Further down the boot path, native_smp_cpus_done() will call the
delayed MTRR initialization for the AP's (mtrr_aps_init()) with
mtrr_aps_delayed_init not set. This resulted in the boot
processor reprogramming its MTRR's to the values seen during the
start of the OS boot. While this is not needed ideally, this
shouldn't have caused any side-effects. This is because the
reprogramming of MTRR's (set_mtrr_state() that gets called via
set_mtrr()) will check if the live register contents are
different from what is being asked to write and will do the actual
write only if they are different.

BP's mtrr state is read during the start of the OS boot and
typically nothing would have changed when we ask to reprogram it
on BP again because of the above scenario on an UP platform. So
on a normal UP platform no reprogramming of BP MTRR MSR's
happens and all is well.

However, on this platform, bios seems to be modifying the fixed
mtrr range registers between the start of OS boot and when we
double check the live registers for reprogramming BP MTRR
registers. And as the live registers are modified, we end up
reprogramming the MTRR's to the state seen during the start of
the OS boot.

During ACPI initialization, something in the bios (probably smi
handler?) don't like this fact and results in a hard lockup.

We didn't see this boot hang issue on this platform before the
commit d0af9eed5a, because only
the AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the value that BP
had at the start of the OS boot.

Fix this issue by checking mtrr_aps_delayed_init before
continuing further in the mtrr_aps_init(). Now, only AP's (if
any) will program its MTRR's to the BP values during boot.

Addresses https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623393

  [ By the way, this behavior of the bios modifying MTRR's after the start
    of the OS boot is not common and the kernel is not prepared to
    handle this situation well. Irrespective of this issue, during
    suspend/resume, linux kernel will try to reprogram the BP's MTRR values
    to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. So suspend/resume might
    be already broken on this platform for all linux kernel versions. ]

d038b12c6d perf: Fix Pentium4 raw event validation
This patch fixes some issues with raw event validation on
Pentium 4 (Netburst) based processors.

As I was testing libpfm4 Netburst support, I ran into two
problems in the p4_validate_raw_event() function:

   - the shared field must be checked ONLY when HT is on
   - the binding to ESCR register was missing

The second item was causing raw events to not be encoded
correctly compared to generic PMU events.

With this patch, I can now pass Netburst events to libpfm4
examples and get meaningful results:

  $ task -e global_power_events🏃u  noploop 1
  noploop for 1 seconds
  3,206,304,898 global_power_events:running

047a3772fe perf, x86: P4 PMU - Fix unflagged overflows handling
Don found that P4 PMU reads CCCR register instead of counter
itself (in attempt to catch unflagged event) this makes P4
NMI handler to consume all NMIs it observes. So the other
NMI users such as kgdb simply have no chance to get NMI
on their hands.

Side note: at moment there is no way to run nmi-watchdog
together with perf tool. This is because both 'perf top' and
nmi-watchdog use same event. So while nmi-watchdog reserves
one event/counter for own needs there is no room for perf tool
left (there is a way to disable nmi-watchdog on boot of course).

Ming has tested this patch with the following results

 | 1. watchdog disabled
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot OK
 | perf works OK
 |
 | 2. watchdog enabled, without patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot hang
 |
 | 3. watchdog enabled, without patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4 and do not run kgdb
 | tests on boot
 |
 | "perf top" partialy works
 |   cpu-cycles            no
 |   instructions          yes
 |   cache-references      no
 |   cache-misses          no
 |   branch-instructions   no
 |   branch-misses         yes
 |   bus-cycles            no
 |
 | 4. watchdog enabled, with patch perf-x86-p4-nmi-4 applied
 |
 | kgdb tests on boot OK
 | perf does not work, NMI "Dazed and confused" messages show up
 |

Which means we still have problems with p4 box due to 'unknown'
nmi happens but at least it should fix kgdb test cases.

c410b83077 x86, NMI: Remove DIE_NMI_IPI
With priorities in place and no one really understanding the difference between
DIE_NMI and DIE_NMI_IPI, just remove DIE_NMI_IPI and convert everyone to DIE_NMI.

This also simplifies default_do_nmi() a little bit.  Instead of calling the
die_notifier in both the if and else part, just pull it out and call it before
the if-statement.  This has the side benefit of avoiding a call to the ioport
to see if there is an external NMI sitting around until after the (more frequent)
internal NMIs are dealt with.

166d751479 x86, NMI: Add priorities to handlers
In order to consolidate the NMI die_chain events, we need to setup the priorities
for the die notifiers.

I started by defining a bunch of common priorities that can be used by the
notifier blocks.  Then I modified the notifier blocks to use the newly created
priorities.

Now that the priorities are straightened out, it should be easier to remove the
event DIE_NMI_IPI.

4a7863cc2e x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR
The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a
local implementation to the global one provide by
kernel/watchdog.c.  This shift has caused a whole bunch of
compile problems under different config options.  I attempt to
simplify things with the patch below.

In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the
meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  Basically they mean the same thing,
the former on a local level and the latter on a global level.

With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on
defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't
make sense any more.  x86 will now use the global
implementation.

The changes below do a few things.  First it changes the few
places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter
anyway, so nothing unusual here).  Those pieces of code were
relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog
functionality, so the change should make sense.

Second, I removed the x86 implementation of
touch_nmi_watchdog().  It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely
on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation.

Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from
x86.  And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to
look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This
changes removes some of the ugliness in that file.

Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  You can
only have one nmi_watchdog.

Tested with
ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken
configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig,
(various broken configs)

Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken
emails. :-)

v3:
  changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function
  prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

4407204c5c perf, x86: Detect broken BIOSes that corrupt the PMU
Some BIOSes use PMU resources, which can cause various bugs:

 - Non-working or erratic PMU based statistics - the PMU can end up
   counting the wrong thing, resulting in misleading statistics

 - Profiling can stop working or it can profile the wrong thing

 - A non-working or erratic NMI watchdog that cannot be relied on

 - The kernel may disturb whatever thing the BIOS tries to use the
   PMU for - possibly causing hardware malfunction in extreme cases.

 - ... and other forms of potential misbehavior

Various forms of such misbehavior has been observed in practice - there are
BIOSes that just corrupt the PMU state, consequences be damned.

The PMU is a CPU resource that is handled by the kernel and the BIOS
stealing+corrupting it is not acceptable nor robust, so we detect it,
warn about it and further refuse to touch the PMU ourselves.

The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall()
and expects the hardware pmu to be present.

Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to
initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit
initcall right after that.

33c6d6a7ad x86, perf, nmi: Disable perf if counters are not accessible
In a kvm virt guests, the perf counters are not emulated.  Instead they
return zero on a rdmsrl. The perf nmi handler uses the fact that crossing
a zero means the counter overflowed (for those counters that do not have
specific interrupt bits). Therefore on kvm guests, perf will swallow all
NMIs thinking the counters overflowed.

This causes problems for subsystems like kgdb which needs NMIs to do its
magic. This problem was discovered by running kgdb tests.

The solution is to write garbage into a perf counter during the
initialization and hopefully reading back the same number.  On kvm
guests, the value will be read back as zero and we disable perf as
a result.

f658bcfb26 x86, cacheinfo: Cleanup L3 cache index disable support
Adaptions to the changes of the AMD northbridge caching code: instead
of a bool in each l3 struct, use a flag in amd_northbridges.flags to
indicate L3 cache index disable support; use a pointer to the whole
northbridge instead of the misc device in the l3 struct; simplify the
initialisation; dynamically generate sysfs attribute array.

Support more than just the "Misc Control" part of the northbridges.
Support more flags by turning "gart_supported" into a single bit flag
that is stored in a flags member. Clean up related code by using a set
of functions (amd_nb_num(), amd_nb_has_feature() and node_to_amd_nb())
instead of accessing the NB data structures directly. Reorder the
initialization code and put the GART flush words caching in a separate

9c0729dc80 x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routines
The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the
caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't
have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not
defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass
0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.

However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing:

(a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any
(b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack
(c) Trace some other task

In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just
be 0.  If it _is_ defined, then

- in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so
  the caller should pass NULL for regs,

- in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to
  dump_trace(),

- in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so
  the caller should pass NULL for regs.

Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of
task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp.

This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs)
that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the
two versions of dump_stack().

Most of this code was not being exercised by virtue of

6809b6ea73 perf, x86: Less disastrous PEBS/BTS buffer allocation failure
Currently PEBS/BTS buffers are allocated when we instantiate the first
event, when this fails everything fails.

This is a problem because esp. BTS tries to allocate a rather large
buffer (64K), which can easily fail.

This patch changes the logic such that when either buffer allocation
fails, we simply don't allow events that would use these facilities,
but continue functioning for all other events.

This logic comes from a much larger patch proposed by Stephane.
