sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:27+00:00

We are going to split  out of , which
will have to be picked up from other headers and .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder  file that just
maps to  to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little
  over 200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.

  ARM:
   - GICv3 save/restore
   - cache flushing fixes
   - working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
   - physical timer emulation

  MIPS:
   - various improvements under the hood
   - support for SMP guests
   - a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU
     notifiers to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking,
     swapping, ballooning and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is
     also supported, so that writes to some memory regions can be
     treated as MMIO. The new MMU also paves the way for hardware
     virtualization support.

  PPC:
   - support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
   - resizable hashed page table
   - bugfixes.

  s390:
   - expose more features to the guest
   - more SIMD extensions
   - instruction execution protection
   - ESOP2

  x86:
   - improved hashing in the MMU
   - faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
   - some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
     migration support of nested hypervisors
   - expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
   - host-to-guest PTP support
   - refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown
     in and some duct tape removed.
   - remove lazy FPU handling
   - optimizations of user-mode exits
   - optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

  generic:
   - alternative signaling mechanism that doesn't pound on
     tsk->sighand->siglock"

sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash

2017-01-20T01:38:46+00:00

Mike reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
set_sched_clock_stable() using hotplug.

This exposed a fundamental problem with the interface, we should never
mark the TSC stable if we ever find it to be unstable. Therefore
set_sched_clock_stable() is a broken interface.

The reason it existed is that not having it is a pain, it means all
relevant architecture code needs to call clear_sched_clock_stable()
where appropriate.

Of the three architectures that select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK ia64
and parisc are trivial in that they never called
set_sched_clock_stable(), so add an unconditional call to
clear_sched_clock_stable() to them.

For x86 the story is a lot more involved, and what this patch tries to
do is ensure we preserve the status quo. So even is Cyrix or Transmeta
have usable TSC they never called set_sched_clock_stable() so they now
get an explicit mark unstable.

clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t

2016-12-25T10:04:12+00:00

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is
unambiguous.

Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script:

-typedef u64 cycle_t;

x86, clock: Fix kvm guest tsc initialization

2016-09-08T14:41:55+00:00

When booting a kvm guest on AMD with the latest kernel the following
messages are displayed in the boot log:

 tsc: Unable to calibrate against PIT
 tsc: HPET/PMTIMER calibration failed

aa297292d708 ("x86/tsc: Enumerate SKL cpu_khz and tsc_khz via CPUID")
introduced a change to account for a difference in cpu and tsc frequencies for
Intel SKL processors. Before this change the native tsc set
x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to native_calibrate_tsc() which is a hardware
calibration of the tsc, and in tsc_init() executed

	tsc_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_tsc();
	cpu_khz = tsc_khz;

The kvm code changed x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to kvm_get_tsc_khz() and
executed the same tsc_init() function.  This meant that KVM guests did not
execute the native hardware calibration function.

After aa297292d708, there are separate native calibrations for cpu_khz and
tsc_khz.  The code sets x86_platform.calibrate_tsc to native_calibrate_tsc()
which is now an Intel specific calibration function, and
x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to native_calibrate_cpu() which is the "old"
native_calibrate_tsc() function (ie, the native hardware calibration
function).

tsc_init() now does

	cpu_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_cpu();
	tsc_khz = x86_platform.calibrate_tsc();
	if (tsc_khz == 0)
		tsc_khz = cpu_khz;
	else if (abs(cpu_khz - tsc_khz) * 10 > tsc_khz)
		cpu_khz = tsc_khz;

The kvm code should not call the hardware initialization in
native_calibrate_cpu(), as it isn't applicable for kvm and it didn't do that
prior to aa297292d708.

This patch resolves this issue by setting x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to
kvm_get_tsc_khz().

v2: I had originally set x86_platform.calibrate_cpu to
cpu_khz_from_cpuid(), however, pbonzini pointed out that the CPUID leaf
in that function is not available in KVM.  I have changed the function
pointer to kvm_get_tsc_khz().

x86: Apply more __ro_after_init and const

2016-08-10T12:55:05+00:00

Guided by grsecurity's analogous __read_only markings in arch/x86,
this applies several uses of __ro_after_init to structures that are
only updated during __init, and const for some structures that are
never updated.  Additionally extends __init markings to some functions
that are only used during __init, and cleans up some missing C99 style
static initializers.
