x86/cpufeature: Add AVX512_4VNNIW and AVX512_4FMAPS features

2016-10-19T15:37:13+00:00

AVX512_4VNNIW  - Vector instructions for deep learning enhanced word
variable precision.
AVX512_4FMAPS - Vector instructions for deep learning floating-point
single precision.

These new instructions are to be used in future Intel Xeon & Xeon Phi
processors. The bits 2&3 of CPUID[level:0x07, EDX] inform that new
instructions are supported by a processor.

The spec can be found in the Intel Software Developer Manual (SDM) or in
the Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (ISE).

Define new feature flags to enumerate the new instructions in /proc/cpuinfo
accordingly to CPUID bits and add the required xsave extensions which are
required for proper operation.

tools: Synchronize tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h

2016-10-05T22:18:34+00:00

Due to ffb173e657fa ("x86/mce: Drop X86_FEATURE_MCE_RECOVERY and the
related model string test"), no changes needed in any other place as no
tool uses X86_FEATURE_MCE_RECOVERY.

Silences this detected drift when building tools/perf:

tools: Sync cpufeatures headers with the kernel

2016-08-09T14:56:33+00:00

Due to:

  1e61f78baf89 ("x86/cpufeature: Make sure DISABLED/REQUIRED macros are updated")

No changes to tools using those headers (tools/arch/x86/lib/mem{set,cpu}_64.S)
seems necessary.

Detected by the tools build header drift checker:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

tools: Sync cpufeatures.h and vmx.h with the kernel

2016-08-09T14:21:57+00:00

There were changes related to the deprecation of the "pcommit"
instruction:

  fd1d961dd681 ("x86/insn: remove pcommit")
  dfa169bbee00 ("Revert "KVM: x86: add pcommit support"")

No need to update anything in the tools, as "pcommit" wasn't being
listed on the VMX_EXIT_REASONS in the tools/perf/arch/x86/util/kvm-stat.c
file.

Just grab fresh copies of these files to silence the file cache
coherency detector:

  $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
  make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/linux/tools/perf'
    BUILD:   Doing 'make -j4' parallel build

perf tools: Introduce weak alternative to sched_getcpu()

2016-07-12T18:20:34+00:00

Which is just a wrapper for sys_getcpu and is not present in at least
musl libc.

perf bench: Copy kernel files needed to build mem{cpy,set} x86_64 benchmarks

2016-07-12T18:20:32+00:00

We can't access kernel files directly from tools/, so copy the required
bits, and make sure that we detect when the original files, in the
kernel, gets modified.

perf tools: Move syscall number fallbacks from perf-sys.h to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/

2016-07-12T18:19:54+00:00

And remove the empty tools/arch/x86/include/asm/unistd_{32,64}.h files
introduced by eae7a755ee81 ("perf tools, x86: Build perf on older
user-space as well").

This way we get closer to mirroring the kernel for cases where __NR_
can't be found for some include path/_GNU_SOURCE/whatever scenario.

tools include: Add basic atomic.h implementation from the kernel sources

2015-05-08T19:11:05+00:00

Uses the arch/x86/ kernel code for x86_64/i386, fallbacking to a gcc
intrinsics implementation that has been tested in at least sparc64.

Will be used for reference counting in tools/perf.

perf tools: Move x86 barrier.h stuff to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/barrier.h

2015-05-08T19:05:03+00:00

We will need it for atomic.h, so move it from the ad-hoc tools/perf/
place to a tools/ subset of the kernel arch/ hierarchy.

Other aches will follow, each in a cset.
