Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

numa_migrate_preferred() is called periodically or when task preferred node changes. Preferred node evaluations happen once per scan sequence. If the scan completion happens just after the periodic NUMA migration, then we try to migrate to the preferred node and the preferred node might change, needing another node migration. Avoid this by checking for scan sequence completion only when checking for periodic migration.

On NUMA_BACKPLANE and NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH systems, tasks/memory should be consolidated to the closest group of nodes. In such a case, relying on group_fault metric may not always help to consolidate. There can always be a case where a node closer to the preferred node may have lesser faults than a node further away from the preferred node. In such a case, moving to node with more faults might avoid numa consolidation. Using group_weight would help to consolidate task/memory around the preferred_node. While here, to be on the conservative side, don't override migrate thread degrades locality logic for CPU_NEWLY_IDLE load balancing. Note: Similar problems exist with should_numa_migrate_memory and will be dealt separately.

task_numa_find_cpu() helps to find the CPU to swap/move the task to. It's guarded by numa_has_capacity(). However node not having capacity shouldn't deter a task swapping if it helps NUMA placement. Further load_too_imbalanced(), which evaluates possibilities of move/swap, provides similar checks as numa_has_capacity. Hence remove numa_has_capacity() to enhance possibilities of task swapping even if load is imbalanced.

There are checks in migrate_swap_stop() that check if the task/CPU combination is as per migrate_swap_arg before migrating. However atleast one of the two tasks to be swapped by migrate_swap() could have migrated to a completely different CPU before updating the migrate_swap_arg. The new CPU where the task is currently running could be a different node too. If the task has migrated, numa balancer might end up placing a task in a wrong node. Instead of achieving node consolidation, it may end up spreading the load across nodes. To avoid that pass the CPUs as additional parameters. While here, place migrate_swap under CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING.

When comparing two nodes at a distance of 'hoplimit', we should consider nodes only up to 'hoplimit'. Currently we also consider nodes at 'oplimit' distance too.

When numa_group faults are available, task_numa_placement only uses numa_group faults to evaluate preferred node. However it still accounts task faults and even evaluates the preferred node just based on task faults just to discard it in favour of preferred node chosen on the basis of numa_group. Instead use task faults only if numa_group is not set.
