For some obscure reason intel_{start,stop}_scheduling() copy the HT
state to an intermediate array. This would make sense if we ever were
to make changes to it which we'd have to discard.
Except we don't. By the time we call intel_commit_scheduling() we're;
as the name implies; committed to them. We'll never back out.
A further hint its pointless is that stop_scheduling() unconditionally
publishes the state.
So the intermediate array is pointless, modify the state in place and
kill the extra array.
And remove the pointless array initialization: INTEL_EXCL_UNUSED == 0.
Note; all is serialized by intel_excl_cntr::lock.

Both intel_commit_scheduling() and intel_get_excl_contraints() test
for cntr < 0.
The only way that can happen (aside from a bug) is through
validate_event(), however that is already captured by the
cpuc->is_fake test.
So remove these test and simplify the code.

The intel_commit_scheduling() callback is pointlessly different from
the start and stop scheduling callback.
Furthermore, the constraint should never be NULL, so remove that test.
Even though we'll never get called (because we NULL the callbacks)
when !is_ht_workaround_enabled() put that test in.
Collapse the (pointless) WARN_ON_ONCE() and bail on !cpuc->excl_cntrs --
this is doubly pointless, because its the same condition as
is_ht_workaround_enabled() which was already pointless because the
whole method won't ever be called.
Furthremore, make all the !excl_cntrs test WARN_ON_ONCE(); they're all
pointless, because the above, either the function
({get,put}_excl_constraint) are already predicated on it existing or
the is_ht_workaround_enabled() thing is the same test.

We have two 'struct event_constraint' local variables in
intel_get_excl_constraints(): 'cx' and 'c'.
Instead of using 'cx' after the dynamic allocation, put all 'cx' inside
the dynamic allocation block and use 'c' outside of it.
Also use direct assignment to copy the structure; let the compiler
figure it out.

I stumbled upon an AMD box that had the BIOS using a hardware performance
counter. Instead of printing out a warning and continuing, it failed and
blocked further perf counter usage.
Looking through the history, I found this commit:
a5ebe0ba3d ("perf/x86: Check all MSRs before passing hw check")
which tweaked the rules for a Xen guest on an almost identical box and now
changed the behaviour.
Unfortunately the rules were tweaked incorrectly and will always lead to
MSR failures even though the MSRs are completely fine.
What happens now is in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c::check_hw_exists():
<snip>
for (i = 0; i < x86_pmu.num_counters; i++) {
reg = x86_pmu_config_addr(i);
ret = rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val);
if (ret)
goto msr_fail;
if (val & ARCH_PERFMON_EVENTSEL_ENABLE) {
bios_fail = 1;
val_fail = val;
reg_fail = reg;
}
}
<snip>
/*
* Read the current value, change it and read it back to see if it
* matches, this is needed to detect certain hardware emulators
* (qemu/kvm) that don't trap on the MSR access and always return 0s.
*/
reg = x86_pmu_event_addr(0);
^^^^
if the first perf counter is enabled, then this routine will always fail
because the counter is running. :-(
if (rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val))
goto msr_fail;
val ^= 0xffffUL;
ret = wrmsrl_safe(reg, val);
ret |= rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val_new);
if (ret || val != val_new)
goto msr_fail;
The above bios_fail used to be a 'goto' which is why it worked in the past.
Further, most vendors have migrated to using fixed counters to hide their
evilness hence this problem rarely shows up now days except on a few old boxes.
I fixed my problem and kept the spirit of the original Xen fix, by recording a
safe non-enable register to be used safely for the reading/writing check.
Because it is not enabled, this passes on bare metal boxes (like metal), but
should continue to throw an msr_fail on Xen guests because the register isn't
emulated yet.
Now I get a proper bios_fail error message and Xen should still see their
msr_fail message (untested).

The (SNB/IVB/HSW) HT bug only affects events that can be programmed
onto GP counters, therefore we should only limit the number of GP
counters that can be used per cpu -- iow we should not constrain the
FP counters.
Furthermore, we should only enfore such a limit when there are in fact
exclusive events being scheduled on either sibling.

[ Fixed build fail for the !CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL case. ]

Commit 43b4578071 ("perf/x86: Reduce stack usage of
x86_schedule_events()") violated the rule that 'fake' scheduling; as
used for event/group validation; should not change the event state.
This went mostly un-noticed because repeated calls of
x86_pmu::get_event_constraints() would give the same result. And
x86_pmu::put_event_constraints() would mostly not do anything.
Commit e979121b1b ("perf/x86/intel: Implement cross-HT corruption
bug workaround") made the situation much worse by actually setting the
event->hw.constraint value to NULL, so when validation and actual
scheduling interact we get NULL ptr derefs.
Fix it by removing the constraint pointer from the event and move it
back to an array, this time in cpuc instead of on the stack.
validate_group()
x86_schedule_events()
event->hw.constraint = c; # store
<context switch>
perf_task_event_sched_in()
...
x86_schedule_events();
event->hw.constraint = c2; # store
...
put_event_constraints(event); # assume failure to schedule
intel_put_event_constraints()
event->hw.constraint = NULL;
<context switch end>
c = event->hw.constraint; # read -> NULL
if (!test_bit(hwc->idx, c->idxmsk)) # <- *BOOM* NULL deref
This in particular is possible when the event in question is a
cpu-wide event and group-leader, where the validate_group() tries to
add an event to the group.

There are a number of FPU internal function prototypes and an inline function
in fpu/api.h, mostly placed so historically as the code grew over the years.
Move them over into fpu/internal.h where they belong. (Add sched.h include
to stackprotector.h which incorrectly relied on getting it from fpu/api.h.)
fpu/api.h is now a pure file that only contains FPU APIs intended for driver
use.

This unifies all the FPU related header files under a unified, hiearchical
naming scheme:
- asm/fpu/types.h: FPU related data types, needed for 'struct task_struct',
widely included in almost all kernel code, and hence kept
as small as possible.
- asm/fpu/api.h: FPU related 'public' methods exported to other subsystems.
- asm/fpu/internal.h: FPU subsystem internal methods
- asm/fpu/xsave.h: XSAVE support internal methods
(Also standardize the header guard in asm/fpu/internal.h.)

Also remove unnecessary includes, to reduce compilation time.

for FPU internals, such as an upcoming C module in arch/x86/kernel/fpu/.

fpu_init() is a bit of a misnomer in that it (falsely) creates the
impression that it's related to the (old) fpu_finit() function,
which initializes FPU ctx state.
Rename it to fpu__cpu_init() to make its boot time initialization
clear, and to move it to the fpu__*() namespace.
Also fix and extend its comment block to point out that it's
called not only on the boot CPU, but on secondary CPUs as well.

[Hardware Error]: Some CPUs didn't answer in synchronization
[Hardware Error]: Machine check: Invalid
^^^^^^^
The last line with 'Invalid' should have printed the high level
MCE error type description we get from mce_severity, i.e.
something like:
[Hardware Error]: Machine check: Action required: data load error in a user process
this happens due to the fact that mce_no_way_out() iterates over
all MCA banks and possibly overwrites the @msg argument which is
used in the panic printing later.
Change behavior to take the message of only and the (last)
critical MCE it detects.

Pull RAS updates from Borislav Petkov:
- RAS: Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data which it
has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as poisoned data
and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the form of a deferred
error. It is the OS's responsibility then to take proper recovery action
and thus prolonge system lifetime as far as possible.
