linux.git/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c, branch v4.16 Linux kernel source tree x86/microcode: Fix CPU synchronization routine 2018-03-16T19:55:51+00:00 Borislav Petkov bp@suse.de 2018-03-14T18:36:15+00:00 bb8c13d61a629276a162c1d2b1a20a815cbcfbb7 Emanuel reported an issue with a hang during microcode update because my dumb idea to use one atomic synchronization variable for both rendezvous - before and after update - was simply bollocks: microcode: microcode_reload_late: late_cpus: 4 microcode: __reload_late: cpu 2 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 3 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 0 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 left microcode: Timeout while waiting for CPUs rendezvous, remaining: 1 CPU1 above would finish, leave and the others will still spin waiting for it to join. So do two synchronization atomics instead, which makes the code a lot more straightforward. Also, since the update is serialized and it also takes quite some time per microcode engine, increase the exit timeout by the number of CPUs on the system. That's ok because the moment all CPUs are done, that timeout will be cut short. Furthermore, panic when some of the CPUs timeout when returning from a microcode update: we can't allow a system with not all cores updated. Also, as an optimization, do not do the exit sync if microcode wasn't updated.

Emanuel reported an issue with a hang during microcode update because my
dumb idea to use one atomic synchronization variable for both rendezvous
- before and after update - was simply bollocks:

  microcode: microcode_reload_late: late_cpus: 4
  microcode: __reload_late: cpu 2 entered
  microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 entered
  microcode: __reload_late: cpu 3 entered
  microcode: __reload_late: cpu 0 entered
  microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 left
  microcode: Timeout while waiting for CPUs rendezvous, remaining: 1

CPU1 above would finish, leave and the others will still spin waiting for
it to join.

So do two synchronization atomics instead, which makes the code a lot more
straightforward.

Also, since the update is serialized and it also takes quite some time per
microcode engine, increase the exit timeout by the number of CPUs on the
system.

That's ok because the moment all CPUs are done, that timeout will be cut
short.

Furthermore, panic when some of the CPUs timeout when returning from a
microcode update: we can't allow a system with not all cores updated.

Also, as an optimization, do not do the exit sync if microcode wasn't
updated.
