smp/hotplug: Hotplug state fail injection

2017-09-25T20:11:44+00:00

Add a sysfs file to one-time fail a specific state. This can be used
to test the state rollback code paths.

Something like this (hotplug-up.sh):

  #!/bin/bash

  echo 0 > /debug/sched_debug
  echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/cpuhp/enable

  ALL_STATES=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/hotplug/states | cut -d':' -f1`
  STATES=${1:-$ALL_STATES}

  for state in $STATES
  do
	  echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	  echo 0 > /debug/tracing/trace
	  echo Fail state: $state
	  echo $state > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

	  cat /debug/tracing/trace > hotfail-${state}.trace

	  sleep 1
  done

Can be used to test for all possible rollback (barring multi-instance)
scenarios on CPU-up, CPU-down is a trivial modification of the above.

Merge tag 'powerpc-4.14-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux

2017-09-07T17:15:40+00:00

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity.
Just lots of things all over the place.

Some things of note include:

- Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can
count both core events as well as nest unit events (Memory
controller etc).

- Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid
unnecessary Page Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the
tree is not changing.

- Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it
closer to other architectures where possible.

- Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to
send IPIs to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all
CPUs.

- The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU
systems. This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems
with very sparse NUMA layouts.

- STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.

- A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that
pairs of cores may share an L2 cache.

- Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing
coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX
compression accelerator.

- Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for
many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to
implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults.

- Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt
controller.

And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting,
but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as
always.

scsi: bnx2i: Simplify cpu hotplug code

2017-07-27T01:51:25+00:00

The CPU hotplug related code of this driver can be simplified by:

1) Consolidating the callbacks into a single state. The CPU thread can be
   torn down on the CPU which goes offline. There is no point in delaying
   that to the CPU dead state

2) Let the core code invoke the online/offline callbacks and remove the
   extra for_each_online_cpu() loops.

powerpc/perf: Add nest IMC PMU support

Add support to register Nest In-Memory Collection PMU counters.
Patch adds a new device file called "imc-pmu.c" under powerpc/perf
folder to contain all the device PMU functions.

Device tree parser code added to parse the PMU events information
and create sysfs event attributes for the PMU.

Cpumask attribute added along with Cpu hotplug online/offline functions
specific for nest PMU. A new state "CPUHP_AP_PERF_POWERPC_NEST_IMC_ONLINE"
added for the cpu hotplug callbacks. Error handle path frees the memory
and unregisters the CPU hotplug callbacks.

2017-07-04T01:08:06+00:00

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.

  The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
  recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
  as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.

  The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
  establishes full lockdep coverage that way.

  The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
  the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
  these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
  probability was low enough to hide them away."

blk-mq: Create hctx for each present CPU

2017-06-28T21:00:07+00:00

Currently we only create hctx for online CPUs, which can lead to a lot
of churn due to frequent soft offline / online operations.  Instead
allocate one for each present CPU to avoid this and dramatically simplify
the code.
