Introduce a function that reads the exact nanoseconds value that is
provided to the guest in kvmclock. This crystallizes the notion of
kvmclock as a thin veneer over a stable TSC, that the guest will
(hopefully) convert with NTP. In other words, kvmclock is *not* a
paravirtualized host-to-guest NTP.
Drop the get_kernel_ns() function, that was used both to get the base
value of the master clock and to get the current value of kvmclock.
The former use is replaced by ktime_get_boot_ns(), the latter is
the purpose of get_kernel_ns().
This also allows KVM to provide a Hyper-V time reference counter that
is synchronized with the time that is computed from the TSC page.

Convert show_trace_log_lvl() to use the new unwinder. dump_trace() has
been deprecated.
show_trace_log_lvl() is special compared to other users of the unwinder.
It's the only place where both reliable *and* unreliable addresses are
needed. With frame pointers enabled, most callers of the unwinder don't
want to know about unreliable addresses. But in this case, when we're
dumping the stack to the console because something presumably went
wrong, the unreliable addresses are useful:
- They show stale data on the stack which can provide useful clues.
- If something goes wrong with the unwinder, or if frame pointers are
corrupt or missing, all the stack addresses still get shown.
So in order to show all addresses on the stack, and at the same time
figure out which addresses are reliable, we have to do the scanning and
the unwinding in parallel.
The scanning is done with the help of get_stack_info() to traverse the
stacks. The unwinding is done separately by the new unwinder.
In theory we could simplify show_trace_log_lvl() by instead pushing some
of this logic into the unwind code. But then we would need some kind of
"fake" frame logic in the unwinder which would add a lot of complexity
and wouldn't be worth it in order to support only one user.
Another benefit of this approach is that once we have a DWARF unwinder,
we should be able to just plug it in with minimal impact to this code.
Another change here is that callers of show_trace_log_lvl() don't need
to provide the 'bp' argument. The unwinder already finds the relevant
frame pointer by unwinding until it reaches the first frame after the
provided stack pointer.

The x86 stack dump code is a bit of a mess. dump_trace() uses
callbacks, and each user of it seems to have slightly different
requirements, so there are several slightly different callbacks floating
around.
Also there are some upcoming features which will need more changes to
the stack dump code, including the printing of stack pt_regs, reliable
stack detection for live patching, and a DWARF unwinder. Each of those
features would at least need more callbacks and/or callback interfaces,
resulting in a much bigger mess than what we have today.
Before doing all that, we should try to clean things up and replace
dump_trace() with something cleaner and more flexible.
The new unwinder is a simple state machine which was heavily inspired by
a suggestion from Andy Lutomirski:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CALCETrUbNTqaM2LRyXGRx=kVLRPeY5A3Pc6k4TtQxF320rUT=w@mail.gmail.com
It's also similar to the libunwind API:
http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/man/libunwind(3).html
Some if its advantages:
- Simplicity: no more callback sprawl and less code duplication.
- Flexibility: it allows the caller to stop and inspect the stack state
at each step in the unwinding process.
- Modularity: the unwinder code, console stack dump code, and stack
metadata analysis code are all better separated so that changing one
of them shouldn't have much of an impact on any of the others.
Two implementations are added which conform to the new unwind interface:
- The frame pointer unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y.
- The "guess" unwinder which is used for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n. This
isn't an "unwinder" per se. All it does is scan the stack for kernel
text addresses. But with no frame pointers, guesses are better than
nothing in most cases.

Kabylake and SkylakeX CPUs are missing in the list of CPUs which need this

The array has a size of MAX_LOCAL_APIC, which can be as large as 32k, so it
can consume up to 128k.
The array has been there forever and was never used for anything useful
other than a version mismatch check which was introduced in 2009.
There is no reason to store the version in an array. The kernel is not
prepared to handle different APIC versions anyway, so the real important
part is to detect a version mismatch and warn about it, which can be done
with a single variable as well.

This situation can be avoided if we call efi_esrt_init after memblock has
memory regions for the allocation.
Also, the EFI ESRT driver makes use of early_memremap'pings. Therfore, we
do not want to defer efi_esrt_init for too long. We must call such function
while calls to early_memremap are still valid.
A good place to meet the two aforementioned conditions is right after
memblock_x86_fill, grouped with other EFI-related functions.

On a large system with many CPUs, using HPET as the clock source can
have a significant impact on the overall system performance because
of the following reasons:
1) There is a single HPET counter shared by all the CPUs.
2) HPET counter reading is a very slow operation.
Using HPET as the default clock source may happen when, for example,
the TSC clock calibration exceeds the allowable tolerance. Something
the performance slowdown can be so severe that the system may crash
because of a NMI watchdog soft lockup, for example.
During the TSC clock calibration process, the default clock source
will be set temporarily to HPET. For systems with many CPUs, it is
possible that NMI watchdog soft lockup may occur occasionally during
that short time period where HPET clocking is active as is shown in
the kernel log below:
[ 71.646504] hpet0: 8 comparators, 64-bit 14.318180 MHz counter
[ 71.655313] Switching to clocksource hpet

[ 95.698128] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#357 stuck for 23s! [swapper/357:0]
This patch addresses the above issues by reducing HPET read contention
using the fact that if more than one CPUs are trying to access HPET at
the same time, it will be more efficient when only one CPU in the group
reads the HPET counter and shares it with the rest of the group instead
of each group member trying to read the HPET counter individually.
This is done by using a combination quadword that contains a 32-bit
stored HPET value and a 32-bit spinlock. The CPU that gets the lock
will be responsible for reading the HPET counter and storing it in
the quadword. The others will monitor the change in HPET value and
lock status and grab the latest stored HPET value accordingly. This
change is only enabled on 64-bit SMP configuration.
On a 4-socket Haswell-EX box with 144 threads (HT on), running the
AIM7 compute workload (1500 users) on a 4.8-rc1 kernel (HZ=1000)
with and without the patch has the following performance numbers
(with HPET or TSC as clock source):
TSC = 1042431 jobs/min
HPET w/o patch = 798068 jobs/min
HPET with patch = 1029445 jobs/min
The perf profile showed a reduction of the %CPU time consumed by
read_hpet from 11.19% without patch to 1.24% with patch.
[ tglx: It's really sad that we need to have such hacks just to deal with
the fact that cpu vendors have not managed to fix the TSC wreckage
within 15+ years. Were They Forgetting? ]

PKRU is the register that lets you disallow writes or all access to a given
protection key.
The XSAVE hardware defines an "init state" of 0 for PKRU: its most
permissive state, allowing access/writes to everything. Since we start off
all new processes with the init state, we start all processes off with the
most permissive possible PKRU.
This is unfortunate. If a thread is clone()'d [1] before a program has
time to set PKRU to a restrictive value, that thread will be able to write
to all data, no matter what pkey is set on it. This weakens any integrity
guarantees that we want pkeys to provide.
To fix this, we define a very restrictive PKRU to override the
XSAVE-provided value when we create a new FPU context. We choose a value
that only allows access to pkey 0, which is as restrictive as we can
practically make it.
This does not cause any practical problems with applications using
protection keys because we require them to specify initial permissions for
each key when it is allocated, which override the restrictive default.
In the end, this ensures that threads which do not know how to manage their
own pkey rights can not do damage to data which is pkey-protected.
I would have thought this was a pretty contrived scenario, except that I
heard a bug report from an MPX user who was creating threads in some very
early code before main(). It may be crazy, but folks evidently _do_ it.

This patch adds two new system calls:
int pkey_alloc(unsigned long flags, unsigned long init_access_rights)
int pkey_free(int pkey);
These implement an "allocator" for the protection keys
themselves, which can be thought of as analogous to the allocator
that the kernel has for file descriptors. The kernel tracks
which numbers are in use, and only allows operations on keys that
are valid. A key which was not obtained by pkey_alloc() may not,
for instance, be passed to pkey_mprotect().
These system calls are also very important given the kernel's use
of pkeys to implement execute-only support. These help ensure
that userspace can never assume that it has control of a key
unless it first asks the kernel. The kernel does not promise to
preserve PKRU (right register) contents except for allocated
pkeys.
The 'init_access_rights' argument to pkey_alloc() specifies the
rights that will be established for the returned pkey. For
instance:
pkey = pkey_alloc(flags, PKEY_DENY_WRITE);
will allocate 'pkey', but also sets the bits in PKRU[1] such that
writing to 'pkey' is already denied.
The kernel does not prevent pkey_free() from successfully freeing
in-use pkeys (those still assigned to a memory range by
pkey_mprotect()). It would be expensive to implement the checks
for this, so we instead say, "Just don't do it" since sane
software will never do it anyway.
Any piece of userspace calling pkey_alloc() needs to be prepared
for it to fail. Why? pkey_alloc() returns the same error code
(ENOSPC) when there are no pkeys and when pkeys are unsupported.
They can be unsupported for a whole host of reasons, so apps must
be prepared for this. Also, libraries or LD_PRELOADs might steal
keys before an application gets access to them.
This allocation mechanism could be implemented in userspace.
Even if we did it in userspace, we would still need additional
user/kernel interfaces to tell userspace which keys are being
used by the kernel internally (such as for execute-only
mappings). Having the kernel provide this facility completely
removes the need for these additional interfaces, or having an
implementation of this in userspace at all.
Note that we have to make changes to all of the architectures
that do not use mman-common.h because we use the new
PKEY_DENY_ACCESS/WRITE macros in arch-independent code.
1. PKRU is the Protection Key Rights User register. It is a
usermode-accessible register that controls whether writes
and/or access to each individual pkey is allowed or denied.

The CPPC registers can also be accessed via functional fixed hardware
addresse(FFH) in X86. Add support by modifying cpc_read and cpc_write to
be able to read/write MSRs on x86 platform on per cpu basis.
Also with this change, acpi_cppc_processor_probe doesn't bail out if
address space id is not equal to PCC or memory address space and FFH
is supported on the system.

When booting a kvm guest on AMD with the latest kernel the following
messages are displayed in the boot log:
tsc: Unable to calibrate against PIT
tsc: HPET/PMTIMER calibration failed
aa297292d7 ("x86/tsc: Enumerate SKL cpu_khz and tsc_khz via CPUID")
introduced a change to account for a difference in cpu and tsc frequencies for
Intel SKL processors. Before this change the native tsc set
x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to native_calibrate_tsc() which is a hardware
calibration of the tsc, and in tsc_init() executed
tsc_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_tsc();
cpu_khz = tsc_khz;
The kvm code changed x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to kvm_get_tsc_khz() and
executed the same tsc_init() function. This meant that KVM guests did not
execute the native hardware calibration function.
After aa297292d7, there are separate native calibrations for cpu_khz and
tsc_khz. The code sets x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to native_calibrate_tsc()
which is now an Intel specific calibration function, and
x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to native_calibrate_cpu() which is the "old"
native_calibrate_tsc() function (ie, the native hardware calibration
function).
tsc_init() now does
cpu_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_cpu();
tsc_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_tsc();
if (tsc_khz == 0)
tsc_khz = cpu_khz;
else if (abs(cpu_khz - tsc_khz) * 10 > tsc_khz)
cpu_khz = tsc_khz;
The kvm code should not call the hardware initialization in
native_calibrate_cpu(), as it isn't applicable for kvm and it didn't do that
prior to aa297292d7.
This patch resolves this issue by setting x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to
kvm_get_tsc_khz().
v2: I had originally set x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to
cpu_khz_from_cpuid(), however, pbonzini pointed out that the CPUID leaf
in that function is not available in KVM. I have changed the function
pointer to kvm_get_tsc_khz().
Fixes: aa297292d7 ("x86/tsc: Enumerate SKL cpu_khz and tsc_khz via CPUID")
