mm: add pmd_t initializer __pmd() to work around a GCC bug.

2017-08-10T22:03:57+00:00

THP migration is added but only supports x86_64 at the moment. For all
other architectures, swp_entry_to_pmd() only returns a zero pmd_t.

Due to a GCC zero initializer bug #53119, the standard (pmd_t){0}
initializer is not accepted by all GCC versions. __pmd() is a feasible
workaround. In addition, sparc32's pmd_t is an array instead of a single
value, so we need (pmd_t){ {0}, } instead of (pmd_t){0}. Thus,
a different __pmd() definition is needed in sparc32.

sparc64: Prevent perf from running during super critical sections

2017-07-18T18:25:52+00:00

This fixes another cause of random segfaults and bus errors that may
occur while running perf with the callgraph option.

Critical sections beginning with spin_lock_irqsave() raise the interrupt
level to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14) and intentionally do not block performance
counter interrupts, which arrive at PIL_NMI (15).

But some sections of code are "super critical" with respect to perf
because the perf_callchain_user() path accesses user space and may cause
TLB activity as well as faults as it unwinds the user stack.

One particular critical section occurs in switch_mm:

        spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->context.lock, flags);
        ...
        load_secondary_context(mm);
        tsb_context_switch(mm);
        ...
        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->context.lock, flags);

If a perf interrupt arrives in between load_secondary_context() and
tsb_context_switch(), then perf_callchain_user() could execute with
the context ID of one process, but with an active TSB for a different
process. When the user stack is accessed, it is very likely to
incur a TLB miss, since the h/w context ID has been changed. The TLB
will then be reloaded with a translation from the TSB for one process,
but using a context ID for another process. This exposes memory from
one process to another, and since it is a mapping for stack memory,
this usually causes the new process to crash quickly.

This super critical section needs more protection than is provided
by spin_lock_irqsave() since perf interrupts must not be allowed in.

Since __tsb_context_switch already goes through the trouble of
disabling interrupts completely, we fix this by moving the secondary
context load down into this better protected region.

sparc64: Measure receiver forward progress to avoid send mondo timeout

2017-07-14T18:18:02+00:00

A large sun4v SPARC system may have moments of intensive xcall activities,
usually caused by unmapping many pages on many CPUs concurrently. This can
flood receivers with CPU mondo interrupts for an extended period, causing
some unlucky senders to hit send-mondo timeout. This problem gets worse
as cpu count increases because sometimes mappings must be invalidated on
all CPUs, and sometimes all CPUs may gang up on a single CPU.

But a busy system is not a broken system. In the above scenario, as long
as the receiver is making forward progress processing mondo interrupts,
the sender should continue to retry.

This patch implements the receiver's forward progress meter by introducing
a per cpu counter 'cpu_mondo_counter[cpu]' where 'cpu' is in the range
of 0..NR_CPUS. The receiver increments its counter as soon as it receives
a mondo and the sender tracks the receiver's counter. If the receiver has
stopped making forward progress when the retry limit is reached, the sender
declares send-mondo-timeout and panic; otherwise, the receiver is allowed
to keep making forward progress.

In addition, it's been observed that PCIe hotplug events generate Correctable
Errors that are handled by hypervisor and then OS. Hypervisor 'borrows'
a guest cpu strand briefly to provide the service. If the cpu strand is
simultaneously the only cpu targeted by a mondo, it may not be available
for the mondo in 20msec, causing SUN4V mondo timeout. It appears that 1 second
is the agreed wait time between hypervisor and guest OS, this patch makes
the adjustment.

kernel/watchdog: introduce arch_touch_nmi_watchdog()

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

For architectures that define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, instead of having them
provide the complete touch_nmi_watchdog() function, just have them
provide arch_touch_nmi_watchdog().

This gives the generic code more flexibility in implementing this
function, and arch implementations don't miss out on touching the
softlockup watchdog or other generic details.
