commit d90167a941f62860f35eb960e1012aa2d30e7e94 upstream.

Intel's MCA implementation broadcasts MCEs to all CPUs on the
node. This poses a problem for offlined CPUs which cannot
participate in the rendezvous process:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Timeout: Not all CPUs entered broadcast exception handler
  Kernel Offset: disabled
  Rebooting in 100 seconds..

More specifically, Linux does a soft offline of a CPU when
writing a 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online, which
doesn't prevent the #MC exception from being broadcasted to that
CPU.

Ensure that offline CPUs don't participate in the MCE rendezvous
and clear the RIP valid status bit so that a second MCE won't
cause a shutdown.

Without the patch, mce_start() will increment mce_callin and
wait for all CPUs. Offlined CPUs should avoid participating in
the rendezvous process altogether.

<title>x86/cpu: Fix SMAP check in PVOPS environments</title>

commit 581b7f158fe0383b492acd1ce3fb4e99d4e57808 upstream.

There appears to be no formal statement of what pv_irq_ops.save_fl() is
supposed to return precisely.  Native returns the full flags, while lguest and
Xen only return the Interrupt Flag, and both have comments by the
implementations stating that only the Interrupt Flag is looked at.  This may
have been true when initially implemented, but no longer is.

To make matters worse, the Xen PVOP leaves the upper bits undefined, making
the BUG_ON() undefined behaviour.  Experimentally, this now trips for 32bit PV
guests on Broadwell hardware.  The BUG_ON() is consistent for an individual
build, but not consistent for all builds.  It has also been a sitting timebomb
since SMAP support was introduced.

Use native_save_fl() instead, which will obtain an accurate view of the AC
flag.

Stephane pointed out that the extrareg mask was one bit too short.
The bubble width field was truncated by one bit. Fix that here.

<title>perf/x86/intel/pebs: Add PEBS frontend profiling for Skylake</title>

<id>d0dc8494cd6904f8ad035d9ad97f313948f35d0c</id>
<content type='text'>
Skylake has a new FRONTEND_LATENCY PEBS event to accurately profile
frontend problems (like ITLB or decoding issues).

The new event is configured through a separate MSR, which selects
a range of sub events.

Define the extra MSR as a extra reg and export support for it
through sysfs.  To avoid duplicating the existing
tables use a new function to add new entries to existing tables.

Skylake has a new FRONTEND_LATENCY PEBS event to accurately profile
frontend problems (like ITLB or decoding issues).

The new event is configured through a separate MSR, which selects
a range of sub events.

Define the extra MSR as a extra reg and export support for it
through sysfs.  To avoid duplicating the existing
tables use a new function to add new entries to existing tables.

<title>perf/x86/intel: Make the CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* constraint on Broadwell more specific</title>

The counter constraint for CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* on Broadwell covered
all CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* sub events, and forced them on counter 2.
But actually only one sub event (umask 8) needs to be on counter 2,
all others do not have any constraint.

Only force that subevent. This fixes groups with multiple
CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* events, for example:

	% perf stat -x, -e '{cpu/event=0xa3,umask=0x6,cmask=6/,\
	cpu/event=0xa2,umask=0x8/,\
	cpu/event=0xa3,umask=0x4,cmask=4/,cpu/event=0xb1,umask=0x1,cmask=1/}' true
	122150,,cpu/event=0xa3,umask=0x6,cmask=6/,846486,100.00
	16483,,cpu/event=0xa2,umask=0x8/,846486,100.00
	252280,,cpu/event=0xa3,umask=0x4,cmask=4/,846486,100.00
	233604,,cpu/event=0xb1,umask=0x1,cmask=1/,846486,100.00
	%

Without this patch the third result would be &lt;unsupported&gt;
