powerpc: NMI IPI improve lock primitive

2017-08-09T13:45:26+00:00

When the NMI IPI lock is contended, spin at low SMT priority, using
loads only, and with interrupts enabled (where possible). This
improves behaviour under high contention (e.g., a system crash when
a number of CPUs are trying to enter the debugger).

Merge tag 'v4.13-rc1' into fixes

2017-07-31T10:20:29+00:00

The fixes branch is based off a random pre-rc1 commit, because we had
some fixes that needed to go in before rc1 was released.

However we now need to fix some code that went in after that point, but
before rc1, so merge rc1 to get that code into fixes so we can fix it!

powerpc/smp: Call smp_ops->setup_cpu() directly on the boot CPU

2017-07-28T09:35:45+00:00

In smp_cpus_done() we need to call smp_ops->setup_cpu() for the boot
CPU, which means it has to run *on* the boot CPU.

In the past we ensured it ran on the boot CPU by changing the CPU
affinity mask of current directly. That was removed in commit
6d11b87d55eb ("powerpc/smp: Replace open coded task affinity logic"),
and replaced with a work queue call.

Unfortunately using a work queue leads to a lockdep warning, now that
the CPU hotplug lock is a regular semaphore:

  ======================================================
  WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
  ...
  kworker/0:1/971 is trying to acquire lock:
   (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++++}, at: [] apply_workqueue_attrs+0x34/0xa0

  but task is already holding lock:
   ((&wfc.work)){+.+.+.}, at: [] process_one_work+0x25c/0x800
  ...
       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock((&wfc.work));
                               lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
                               lock((&wfc.work));
  lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);

Although the deadlock can't happen in practice, because
smp_cpus_done() only runs in early boot before CPU hotplug is allowed,
lockdep can't tell that.

Luckily in commit 8fb12156b8db ("init: Pin init task to the boot CPU,
initially") tglx changed the generic code to pin init to the boot CPU
to begin with. The unpinning of init from the boot CPU happens in
sched_init_smp(), which is called after smp_cpus_done().

So smp_cpus_done() is always called on the boot CPU, which means we
don't need the work queue call at all - and the lockdep warning goes
away.

powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdog

2017-07-12T23:26:02+00:00

Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based
hardlockup detector.

The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going through
perf.  Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that would
prevent the perf detector from working in those regions.

Additionally, implement a SMP based detector where all CPUs watch one
another by pinging a shared cpumask.  This is because powerpc Book3S
does not have a true periodic local NMI, but some platforms do implement
a true NMI IPI.

If a CPU is stuck with interrupts hard disabled, the soft-NMI watchdog
does not work, but the SMP watchdog will.  Even on platforms without a
true NMI IPI to get a good trace from the stuck CPU, other CPUs will
notice the lockup sufficiently to report it and panic.

powerpc: use spin loop primitives in some functions

2017-07-02T10:40:24+00:00

Use the different spin loop primitives in some simple powerpc
spin loops, including those which will spin as a common case.

This will help to test the spin loop primitives before more
conversions are done.

nr_cpu_ids can be limited by nr_cpus boot parameter, whereas NR_CPUS is a

powerpc: Adjust system_state check

2017-05-23T08:01:35+00:00

To enable smp_processor_id() and might_sleep() debug checks earlier, it's
required to add system states between SYSTEM_BOOTING and SYSTEM_RUNNING.

Adjust the system_state check in smp_generic_cpu_bootable() to handle the
extra states.

   - Support for CAPI cards on Power9, using the "Coherent Accelerator
     Interface Architecture 2.0".

   - The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and
     runtime.

   - Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as
     support for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.

   - Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts,
     correctly treating them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and
     using a new hypervisor call to trigger them, all of which should
     aid debugging and robustness.

   - Many fixes and other minor enhancements.
