e20a2d205c x86, AMD: Fix APIC timer erratum 400 affecting K8 Rev.A-E processors
Older AMD K8 processors (Revisions A-E) are affected by erratum
400 (APIC timer interrupts don't occur in C states greater than
C1). This, for example, means that X86_FEATURE_ARAT flag should
not be set for these parts.

This addresses regression introduced by commit
b87cf80af3 ("x86, AMD: Set ARAT
feature on AMD processors") where the system may become
unresponsive until external interrupt (such as keyboard input)
occurs. This results, for example, in time not being reported
correctly, lack of progress on the system and other lockups.

8f62242246 perf events: Add generic front-end and back-end stalled cycle event definitions
Add two generic hardware events: front-end and back-end stalled cycles.

These events measure conditions when the CPU is executing code but its
capabilities are not fully utilized. Understanding such situations and
analyzing them is an important sub-task of code optimization workflows.

Both events limit performance: most front end stalls tend to be caused
by branch misprediction or instruction fetch cachemisses, backend
stalls can be caused by various resource shortages or inefficient
instruction scheduling.

Front-end stalls are the more important ones: code cannot run fast
if the instruction stream is not being kept up.

An over-utilized back-end can cause front-end stalls and thus
has to be kept an eye on as well.

The exact composition is very program logic and instruction mix
dependent.

We use the terms 'stall', 'front-end' and 'back-end' loosely and
try to use the best available events from specific CPUs that
approximate these concepts.

8a850cadca perf event, x86: Use better stalled cycles metric
Use the UOPS_EXECUTED.*,c=1,i=1 event on Intel CPUs - it is a rather
good indicator of CPU execution stalls, more sensitive and more inclusive
than the 0xa2 resource stalls event (which does not count nearly as many
stall types).

2bce5daca2 perf, x86, nmi: Move LVT un-masking into irq handlers
It was noticed that P4 machines were generating double NMIs for
each perf event.  These extra NMIs lead to 'Dazed and confused'
messages on the screen.

I tracked this down to a P4 quirk that said the overflow bit had
to be cleared before re-enabling the apic LVT mask.  My first
attempt was to move the un-masking inside the perf nmi handler
from before the chipset NMI handler to after.

This broke Nehalem boxes that seem to like the unmasking before
the counters themselves are re-enabled.

In order to keep this change simple for 2.6.39, I decided to
just simply move the apic LVT un-masking to the beginning of all
the chipset NMI handlers, with the exception of Pentium4's to
fix the double NMI issue.

Later on we can move the un-masking to later in the handlers to
save a number of 'extra' NMIs on those particular chipsets.

I tested this change on a P4 machine, an AMD machine, a Nehalem
box, and a core2quad box.  'perf top' worked correctly along
with various other small 'perf record' runs.  Anything high
stress breaks all the machines but that is a different problem.

Thanks to various people for testing different versions of this
patch.

ec75a71634 perf events, x86: Work around the Nehalem AAJ80 erratum
On Nehalem CPUs the retired branch-misses event can be completely bogus,
when there are no branch-misses occuring. When there are a lot of branch
misses then the count is pretty accurate. Still, this leaves us with an
event that over-counts a lot.

Detect this erratum and work it around by using BR_MISP_EXEC.ANY events.
These will also count speculated branches but still it's a lot more
precise in practice than the architectural event.

f4929bd372 perf, x86: Update/fix Intel Nehalem cache events
Change the Nehalem cache events to use retired memory instruction counters
(similar to Westmere), this greatly improves the provided stats.

Using:

main ()
{
        int i;

        for (i = 0; i < 1000000000; i++) {
                asm("mov (%%rsp), %%rbx;"
                    "mov %%rbx, (%%rsp);" : : : "rbx");
        }
}

We find:

 $ perf stat --repeat 10 -e instructions:u -e l1-dcache-loads:u -e l1-dcache-stores:u ./loop_1b_loads+stores
  Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_loads+stores' (10 runs):
      4,000,081,056 instructions:u           #      0.000 IPC ( +-   0.000% )
      4,999,502,846 l1-dcache-loads:u          ( +-   0.008% )
      1,000,034,832 l1-dcache-stores:u         ( +-   0.000% )
         1.565184942  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.005% )

The 5b is surprising - we'd expect 1b:

 $ perf stat --repeat 10 -e instructions:u -e r10b:u -e l1-dcache-stores:u ./loop_1b_loads+stores
  Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_loads+stores' (10 runs):
      4,000,081,054 instructions:u           #      0.000 IPC ( +-   0.000% )
      1,000,021,961 r10b:u                     ( +-   0.000% )
      1,000,030,951 l1-dcache-stores:u         ( +-   0.000% )
         1.565055422  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.003% )

Which this patch thus fixes.

b52c55c6a2 x86, perf event: Turn off unstructured raw event access to offcore registers
Andi Kleen pointed out that the Intel offcore support patches were merged
without user-space tool support to the functionality:

 |
 | The offcore_msr perf kernel code was merged into 2.6.39-rc*, but the
 | user space bits were not. This made it impossible to set the extra mask
 | and actually do the OFFCORE profiling
 |

Andi submitted a preliminary patch for user-space support, as an
extension to perf's raw event syntax:

 |
 | Some raw events -- like the Intel OFFCORE events -- support additional
 | parameters. These can be appended after a ':'.
 |
 | For example on a multi socket Intel Nehalem:
 |
 |    perf stat -e r1b7:20ff -a sleep 1
 |
 | Profile the OFFCORE_RESPONSE.ANY_REQUEST with event mask REMOTE_DRAM_0
 | that measures any access to DRAM on another socket.
 |

But this kind of usability is absolutely unacceptable - users should not
be expected to type in magic, CPU and model specific incantations to get
access to useful hardware functionality.

The proper solution is to expose useful offcore functionality via
generalized events - that way users do not have to care which specific
CPU model they are using, they can use the conceptual event and not some
model specific quirky hexa number.

We already have such generalization in place for CPU cache events,
and it's all very extensible.

"Offcore" events measure general DRAM access patters along various
parameters. They are particularly useful in NUMA systems.

We want to support them via generalized DRAM events: either as the
fourth level of cache (after the last-level cache), or as a separate
generalization category.

That way user-space support would be very obvious, memory access
profiling could be done via self-explanatory commands like:

  perf record -e dram ./myapp
  perf record -e dram-remote ./myapp

... to measure DRAM accesses or more expensive cross-node NUMA DRAM
accesses.

These generalized events would work on all CPUs and architectures that
have comparable PMU features.

( Note, these are just examples: actual implementation could have more
  sophistication and more parameter - as long as they center around
  similarly simple usecases. )

Now we do not want to revert *all* of the current offcore bits, as they
are still somewhat useful for generic last-level-cache events, implemented
in this commit:

  e994d7d23a: perf: Fix LLC-* events on Intel Nehalem/Westmere

But we definitely do not yet want to expose the unstructured raw events
to user-space, until better generalization and usability is implemented
for these hardware event features.

( Note: after generalization has been implemented raw offcore events can be
  supported as well: there can always be an odd event that is marginally
  useful but not useful enough to generalize. DRAM profiling is definitely
  *not* such a category so generalization must be done first. )

Furthermore, PERF_TYPE_RAW access to these registers was not intended
to go upstream without proper support - it was a side-effect of the above
e994d7d23a commit, not mentioned in the changelog.

As v2.6.39 is nearing release we go for the simplest approach: disable
the PERF_TYPE_RAW offcore hack for now, before it escapes into a released
kernel and becomes an ABI.

Once proper structure is implemented for these hardware events and users
are offered usable solutions we can revisit this issue.

Correctable errors are considered something rather normal on
modern hardware these days. Even more importantly, correctable
errors mean exactly that - they've been corrected by the
hardware - and there's no need to taint the kernel since
execution hasn't been compromised so far.

Also, drop tainting in the thermal throttling code for a similar
reason: crossing a thermal threshold does not mean corruption.

5bbc097d89 x86, amd: Disable GartTlbWlkErr when BIOS forgets it
This patch disables GartTlbWlk errors on AMD Fam10h CPUs if
the BIOS forgets to do is (or is just too old). Letting
these errors enabled can cause a sync-flood on the CPU
causing a reboot.

The AMD BKDG recommends disabling GART TLB Wlk Error completely.

The MCE subsystem needs to sample an RCU-protected index outside of
any protection for that index.  If this was a pointer, we would use
rcu_access_pointer(), but there is no corresponding rcu_access_index().
This commit therefore creates an rcu_access_index() and applies it

84ac7cdbdd x86, mtrr, pat: Fix one cpu getting out of sync during resume
On laptops with core i5/i7, there were reports that after resume
graphics workloads were performing poorly on a specific AP, while
the other cpu's were ok. This was observed on a 32bit kernel
specifically.

Debug showed that the PAT init was not happening on that AP
during resume and hence it contributing to the poor workload
performance on that cpu.

On this system, resume flow looked like this:

1. BP starts the resume sequence and we reinit BP's MTRR's/PAT
   early on using mtrr_bp_restore()

2. Resume sequence brings all AP's online

3. Resume sequence now kicks off the MTRR reinit on all the AP's.

4. For some reason, between point 2 and 3, we moved from BP
   to one of the AP's. My guess is that printk() during resume
   sequence is contributing to this. We don't see similar
   behavior with the 64bit kernel but there is no guarantee that
   at this point the remaining resume sequence (after AP's bringup)
   has to happen on BP.

5. set_mtrr() was assuming that we are still on BP and skipped the
   MTRR/PAT init on that cpu (because of 1 above)

6. But we were on an AP and this led to not reprogramming PAT
   on this cpu leading to bad performance.

Fix this by doing unconditional mtrr_if->set_all() in set_mtrr()
during MTRR/PAT init. This might be unnecessary if we are still
running on BP. But it is of no harm and will guarantee that after
resume, all the cpu's will be in sync with respect to the
MTRR/PAT registers.

45daae575e perf, x86: Complain louder about BIOSen corrupting CPU/PMU state and continue
Eric Dumazet reported that hardware PMU events do not work on his
system, due to the BIOS corrupting PMU state:

    Performance Events: PEBS fmt0+, Core2 events, Broken BIOS detected, using software events only.
    [Firmware Bug]: the BIOS has corrupted hw-PMU resources (MSR 186 is 43003c)

Linus suggested that we continue in the face of such BIOS-induced CPU
state corruption:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/24/608

Such BIOSes will have to be fixed - Linux developers rely on a working and
fully capable PMU and the BIOS interfering with the CPU's PMU state is simply
not acceptable.

So this patch changes perf to continue when it detects such BIOS
interaction, some hardware events may be unreliable due to the BIOS
writing and re-writing them - there's not much the kernel can do
about that but to detect the corruption and report it.

242214f9c1 perf, x86: P4 PMU - Read proper MSR register to catch unflagged overflows
The read of a proper MSR register was missed and instead of
counter the configration register was tested (it has
ARCH_P4_UNFLAGGED_BIT always cleared) leading to unknown NMI
hitting the system. As result the user may obtain "Dazed and
confused, but trying to continue" message. Fix it by reading a
proper MSR register.

When an NMI happens on a P4, the perf nmi handler checks the
configuration register to see if the overflow bit is set or not
before taking appropriate action.  Unfortunately, various P4
machines had a broken overflow bit, so a backup mechanism was
implemented.  This mechanism checked to see if the counter
rolled over or not.

A previous commit that implemented this backup mechanism was
broken. Instead of reading the counter register, it used the
configuration register to determine if the counter rolled over
or not. Reading that bit would give incorrect results.

This would lead to 'Dazed and confused' messages for the end
user when using the perf tool (or if the nmi watchdog is
running).

The fix is to read the counter register before determining if
the counter rolled over or not.

f3c6ea1b06 x86: Use syscore_ops instead of sysdev classes and sysdevs
Some subsystems in the x86 tree need to carry out suspend/resume and
shutdown operations with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled and
they define sysdev classes and sysdevs or sysdev drivers for this
purpose.  This leads to unnecessarily complicated code and excessive
memory usage, so switch them to using struct syscore_ops objects for
this purpose instead.

Generally, there are three categories of subsystems that use
sysdevs for implementing PM operations: (1) subsystems whose
suspend/resume callbacks ignore their arguments entirely (the
majority), (2) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks use their
struct sys_device argument, but don't really need to do that,
because they can be implemented differently in an arguably simpler
way (io_apic.c), and (3) subsystems whose suspend/resume callbacks
use their struct sys_device argument, but the value of that argument
is always the same and could be ignored (microcode_core.c).  In all
of these cases the subsystems in question may be readily converted to
using struct syscore_ops objects for power management and shutdown.

885b976fad ACPI, APEI, Add ERST record ID cache
APEI ERST firmware interface and implementation has no multiple users
in mind.  For example, if there is four records in storage with ID: 1,
2, 3 and 4, if two ERST readers enumerate the records via
GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID as follow,

reader 1		reader 2
1
			2
3
			4
-1
			-1

where -1 signals there is no more record ID.

Reader 1 has no chance to check record 2 and 4, while reader 2 has no
chance to check record 1 and 3.  And any other GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID will
return -1, that is, other readers will has no chance to check any
record even they are not cleared by anyone.

This makes raw GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID not suitable for used by multiple
users.

To solve the issue, an in-memory ERST record ID cache is designed and
implemented.  When enumerating record ID, the ID returned by
GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID is added into cache in addition to be returned to
caller.  So other readers can check the cache to get all record ID
available.

fc66c5210e perf, x86: Fix Intel fixed counters base initialization
The following patch solves the problems introduced by Robert's
commit 41bf498 and reported by Arun Sharma. This commit gets rid
of the base + index notation for reading and writing PMU msrs.

The problem is that for fixed counters, the new calculation for
the base did not take into account the fixed counter indexes,
thus all fixed counters were read/written from fixed counter 0.
Although all fixed counters share the same config MSR, they each
have their own counter register.

e8e999cf3c x86, dumpstack: Correct stack dump info when frame pointer is available
Current stack dump code scans entire stack and check each entry
contains a pointer to kernel code. If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it
could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of
the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign.

However this was not going to happen because scan start point
was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not
meet.

Commit 9c0729dc80 ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack
tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was
read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked
invalid.

This patch fixes this by reverting above commit while retaining
stack_frame() helper as suggested by Frederic Weisbecker.

End result looks like below:
