4a90a99c4f x86: Add a static_cpu_has_safe variant
We want to use this in early code where alternatives might not have run
yet and for that case we fall back to the dynamic boot_cpu_has.

For that, force a 5-byte jump since the compiler could be generating
differently sized jumps for each label.

5700f743b5 x86: Sanity-check static_cpu_has usage
static_cpu_has may be used only after alternatives have run. Before that
it always returns false if constant folding with __builtin_constant_p()
doesn't happen. And you don't want that.

This patch is the result of me debugging an issue where I overzealously
put static_cpu_has in code which executed before alternatives have run
and had to spend some time with scratching head and cursing at the
monitor.

So add a jump to a warning which screams loudly when we use this
function too early. The alternatives patch that check away in
conjunction with patching the rest of the kernel image.

[ hpa: factored this into its own configuration option.  If we want to
  have an overarching option, it should be an option which selects
  other options, not as a group option in the source code. ]

719038de98 x86/intel/cacheinfo: Shut up last long-standing warning
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c: In function ‘init_intel_cacheinfo’:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:642:28: warning: ‘this_leaf.size’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:643:29: warning: ‘this_leaf.eax.split.num_threads_sharing’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

This keeps on happening during randbuilds and the compiler is
wrong here:

In the case where cpuid4_cache_lookup_regs() returns 0, both
this_leaf.size and this_leaf.eax get initialized. In the case
where the CPUID leaf doesn't contain valid cache info, we error
out which init_intel_cacheinfo() handles correctly without
touching the abovementioned fields.

So shut up the warning by clearing out the struct which we hand
down.

While at it, reverse error handling and gain one indentation
level.

f9134f36ae perf/x86/intel: Add mem-loads/stores support for Haswell
mem-loads is basically the same as Sandy Bridge,
but we use a separate string for changes later.

Haswell doesn't support the full precise store mode,
so we emulate it using the "DataLA" facility.
This allows to do everything, but for data sources we
can only detect L1 hit or not.

There is no explicit enable bit anymore, so we have
to tie it to a perf internal only flag.

The address is supported for all memory related PEBS
events with DataLA. Instead of only logging for the
load and store events we allow logging it for all
(it will be simply 0 if the current event does not
support it)

This avoids some problems with spurious PMIs on Haswell.
Haswell seems to behave more like P4 in this regard. Do
the same thing as the P4 perf handler by unmasking

130768b8c9 perf/x86/intel: Add Haswell PEBS record support
Add support for the Haswell extended (fmt2) PEBS format.

It has a superset of the nhm (fmt1) PEBS fields, but has a
longer record so we need to adjust the code paths.

The main advantage is the new "EventingRip" support which
directly gives the instruction, not off-by-one instruction. So
with precise == 2 we use that directly and don't try to use LBRs
and walking basic blocks. This lowers the overhead of using
precise significantly.

Some other features are added in later patches.

7be6296fdd perf/x86/amd: AMD IOMMU Performance Counter PERF uncore PMU implementation
Implement a perf PMU to handle IOMMU performance counters and events.
The PMU only supports counting mode (e.g. perf stat). Since the counters
are shared across all cores, the PMU is implemented as "system-wide" mode.

To invoke the AMD IOMMU PMU, issue a perf tool command such as:

  ./perf stat -a -e amd_iommu/<events>/ <command>

or:

  ./perf stat -a -e amd_iommu/config=<config-data>,config1=<config1-data>/ <command>

For example:

  ./perf stat -a -e amd_iommu/mem_trans_total/ <command>

The resulting count will be how many IOMMU total peripheral memory
operations were performed during the command execution window.

ae0def05ed perf/x86: Only print PMU state when also WARN()'ing
intel_pmu_handle_irq() has a warning in it if it does too many
loops.  It is a WARN_ONCE(), but the perf_event_print_debug()
call beneath it is unconditional. For the first warning, you get
a nice backtrace and message, but subsequent ones just dump the
PMU state with no leading messages.  I doubt this is what was
intended.

This patch will only print the PMU state when paired with the
WARN_ON() text.  It effectively open-codes WARN_ONCE()'s
one-time-only logic.

My suspicion is that the code really just wants to make sure we
do not sit in the loop and spit out a warning for every loop
iteration after the 100th.  From what I've seen, this is very
unlikely to happen since we also clear the PMU state.

After this patch, instead of seeing the PMU state dumped each
time, you will just see:

	[57494.894540] perf_event_intel: clearing PMU state on CPU#129
	[57579.539668] perf_event_intel: clearing PMU state on CPU#10

43b4578071 perf/x86: Reduce stack usage of x86_schedule_events()
x86_schedule_events() caches event constraints on the stack during
scheduling.  Given the number of possible events, this is 512 bytes of
stack; since it can be invoked under schedule() under god-knows-what,
this is causing stack blowouts.

Trade some space usage for stack safety: add a place to cache the
constraint pointer to struct perf_event.  For 8 bytes per event (1% of
its size) we can save the giant stack frame.

This shouldn't change any aspect of scheduling whatsoever and while in
theory the locality's a tiny bit worse, I doubt we'll see any
performance impact either.

Tested: `perf stat whatever` does not blow up and produces
results that aren't hugely obviously wrong.  I'm not sure how to run
particularly good tests of perf code, but this should not produce any
functional change whatsoever.

d8d386c106 x86, mtrr: Fix original mtrr range get for mtrr_cleanup
Joshua reported: Commit cd7b304dfaf1 (x86, range: fix missing merge
during add range) broke mtrr cleanup on his setup in 3.9.5.
corresponding commit in upstream is fbe06b7bae7c.

  *BAD*gran_size: 64K chunk_size: 16M num_reg: 6 lose cover RAM: -0G

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59491

So it rejects new var mtrr layout.

It turns out we have some problem with initial mtrr range retrieval.
The current sequence is:
	x86_get_mtrr_mem_range
		==> bunchs of add_range_with_merge
		==> bunchs of subract_range
		==> clean_sort_range
	add_range_with_merge for [0,1M)
	sort_range()

add_range_with_merge could have blank slots, so we can not just
sort only, that will have final result have extra blank slot in head.

So move that calling add_range_with_merge for [0,1M), with that we
could avoid extra clean_sort_range calling.

d0d98eedee Add arch_phys_wc_{add, del} to manipulate WC MTRRs if needed
Several drivers currently use mtrr_add through various #ifdef guards
and/or drm wrappers.  The vast majority of them want to add WC MTRRs
on x86 systems and don't actually need the MTRR if PAT (i.e.
ioremap_wc, etc) are working.

arch_phys_wc_add and arch_phys_wc_del are new functions, available
on all architectures and configurations, that add WC MTRRs on x86 if
needed (and handle errors) and do nothing at all otherwise.  They're
also easier to use than mtrr_add and mtrr_del, so the call sites can
be simplified.

As an added benefit, this will avoid wasting MTRRs and possibly
warning pointlessly on PAT-supporting systems.

The LBR 'from' adddress is under full userspace control; ensure
we validate it before reading from it.

Note: is_module_text_address() can potentially be quite
expensive; for those running into that with high overhead
in modules optimize it using an RCU backed rb-tree.

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle's merge are:

   - Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
     blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.

   - Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:

   - allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
     can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.

   - debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.

   - suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
     processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
     TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
     after resume.  This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
     the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
     recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
     can be used.

   - Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
     CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
     simplistic seqfile approach fails.  Convert /proc/timer_list to a
     proper seq_file with its own iterator.

   - Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
     Stultz.

   - International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
     internally currently but not exposed externally.  Separate the TAI
     code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer
     and posix-timer code, by John Stultz.

   - Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
     timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
     clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents
     driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid
     spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring
     timer will be woken.

   - Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt

   - ... various other fixes and cleanups"

5ac2b5c272 perf/x86/intel/P4: Robistify P4 PMU types
Linus found, while extending integer type extension checks in the
sparse static code checker, various fragile patterns of mixed
signed/unsigned  64-bit/32-bit integer use in perf_events_p4.c.

The relevant hardware register ABI is 64 bit wide on 32-bit
kernels as  well, so clean it all up a bit, remove unnecessary
casts, and make sure we  use 64-bit unsigned integers in these
places.

[ Unfortunately this patch was not tested on real P4 hardware,
  those are pretty rare already. If this patch causes any
  problems on P4 hardware then please holler ... ]

94f4db3590 perf/x86/amd: Fix AMD NB and L2I "uncore" support
Borislav Petkov reported a lockdep splat warning about kzalloc()
done in an IPI (hardirq) handler.

This is a real bug, do not call kzalloc() in a smp_call_function_single()
handler because it can schedule and crash.

0cf5f4323b perf/x86/amd: Remove old-style NB counter support from perf_event_amd.c
Support for NB counters, MSRs 0xc0010240 ~ 0xc0010247, got
moved to perf_event_amd_uncore.c in the following commit:

  c43ca5091a37 perf/x86/amd: Add support for AMD NB and L2I "uncore" counters

AMD Family 10h NB events (events 0xe0 ~ 0xff, on MSRs 0xc001000 ~
0xc001007) will still continue to be handled by perf_event_amd.c

a5ebe0ba3d perf/x86: Check all MSRs before passing hw check
check_hw_exists() has a number of checks which go to two exit
paths: msr_fail and bios_fail.  Checks classified as msr_fail
will cause check_hw_exists() to return false, causing the PMU
not to be used; bios_fail checks will only cause a warning to be
printed, but will return true.

The problem is that if there are both msr failures and bios
failures, and the routine hits a bios_fail check first, it will
exit early and return true, not finishing the rest of the msr
checks.  If those msrs are in fact broken, it will cause them to
be used erroneously.

In the case of a Xen PV VM, the guest OS has read access to all
the MSRs, but write access is white-listed to supported
features.  Writes to unsupported MSRs have no effect.  The PMU
MSRs are not (typically) supported, because they are expensive
to save and restore on a VM context switch.  One of the
"msr_fail" checks is supposed to detect this circumstance (ether
for Xen or KVM) and disable the harware PMU.

However, on one of my AMD boxen, there is (apparently) a broken
BIOS which triggers one of the bios_fail checks.  In particular,
MSR_K7_EVNTSEL0 has the ARCH_PERFMON_EVENTSEL_ENABLE bit set.
The guest kernel detects this because it has read access to all
MSRs, and causes it to skip the rest of the checks and try to
use the non-existent hardware PMU.  This minimally causes a lot
of useless instruction emulation and Xen console spam; it may
cause other issues with the watchdog as well.

This changset causes check_hw_exists() to go through all of the
msr checks, failing and returning false if any of them fail.
This makes sure that a guest running under Xen without a virtual
PMU will detect that there is no functioning PMU and not attempt
to use it.

This problem affects kernels as far back as 3.2, and should thus
be considered for backport.
