Peter Zijstra noticed that in arch/x86/Kconfig there are a lot
of X86_{32,64} clauses in the X86 symbol, plus there are a number
of similar selects in the X86_32 and X86_64 config definitions
as well - which all overlap in an inconsistent mess.
So:
- move all select's from X86_32 and X86_64 to the X64 config
option
- sort their names, so that duplications are easier to spot
- align their if clauses, so that they are easier to identify
at a glance - and so that weirdnesses stand out more

This fixes a bug uncovered by a recent driver core change that
modified the implementation of the ACPI_COMPANION_SET() macro to
strictly rely on its second argument to be either NULL or a valid
pointer to struct acpi_device.
As it turns out, pcibios_root_bridge_prepare() on x86 and ia64
works with the assumption that the only code path calling
pci_create_root_bus() is pci_acpi_scan_root() and therefore
the sysdata argument passed to it will always match the
expectations of pcibios_root_bridge_prepare(). That need not
be the case, however, and in particular it is not the case for
the Xen pcifront driver that passes a pointer to its own private
data strcture as sysdata to pci_scan_bus_parented() which then
passes it to pci_create_root_bus() and it ends up being used
incorrectly by pcibios_root_bridge_prepare().

Commit 97badf873a (device property: Make it possible to use
secondary firmware nodes) uncovered a bug in the x86 (and ia64) PCI
host bridge initialization code that assumes bridge->bus->sysdata
to always point to a struct pci_sysdata object which need not be
the case (in particular, the Xen PCI frontend driver sets it to point
to a different data type). If it is not the case, an incorrect
pointer (or a piece of data that is not a pointer at all) will be
passed to ACPI_COMPANION_SET() and that may cause interesting
breakage to happen going forward.
To work around this problem use the observation that the ACPI
host bridge initialization always passes NULL as parent to
pci_create_root_bus(), so if pcibios_root_bridge_prepare() sees
a non-NULL parent of the bridge, it should not attempt to set
an ACPI companion for it, because that means that
pci_create_root_bus() has been called by someone else.

We use pat_enabled in x86-specific code to see if PAT is enabled
or not but we're granting full access to it even though readers
do not need to set it. If, for instance, we granted access to it
to modules later they then could override the variable
setting... no bueno.
This renames pat_enabled to a new static variable __pat_enabled.
Folks are redirected to use pat_enabled() now.
Code that sets this can only be internal to pat.c. Apart from
the early kernel parameter "nopat" to disable PAT, we also have
a few cases that disable it later and make use of a helper
pat_disable(). It is wrapped under an ifdef but since that code
cannot run unless PAT was enabled its not required to wrap it
with ifdefs, unwrap that. Likewise, since "nopat" doesn't really
change non-PAT systems just remove that ifdef as well.
Although we could add and use an early_param_off(), these
helpers don't use __read_mostly but we want to keep
__read_mostly for __pat_enabled as this is a hot path -- upon
boot, for instance, a simple guest may see ~4k accesses to
pat_enabled(). Since __read_mostly early boot params are not
that common we don't add a helper for them just yet.

It is possible to enable CONFIG_MTRR and CONFIG_X86_PAT and end
up with a system with MTRR functionality disabled but PAT
functionality enabled. This can happen, for instance, when the
Xen hypervisor is used where MTRRs are not supported but PAT is.
This can happen on Linux as of commit
47591df505 ("xen: Support Xen pv-domains using PAT")
by Juergen, introduced in v3.19.
Technically, we should assume the proper CPU bits would be set
to disable MTRRs but we can't always rely on this. At least on
the Xen Hypervisor, for instance, only X86_FEATURE_MTRR was
disabled as of Xen 4.4 through Xen commit 586ab6a [0], but not
X86_FEATURE_K6_MTRR, X86_FEATURE_CENTAUR_MCR, or
X86_FEATURE_CYRIX_ARR for instance.
Roger Pau Monné has clarified though that although this is
technically true we will never support PVH on these CPU types so
Xen has no need to disable these bits on those systems. As per
Roger, AMD K6, Centaur and VIA chips don't have the necessary
hardware extensions to allow running PVH guests [1].
As per Toshi it is also possible for the BIOS to disable MTRR
support, in such cases get_mtrr_state() would update the MTRR
state as per the BIOS, we need to propagate this information as
well.
x86 MTRR code relies on quite a bit of checks for mtrr_if being
set to check to see if MTRRs did get set up. Instead, lets
provide a generic getter for that. This also adds a few checks
where they were not before which could potentially safeguard
ourselves against incorrect usage of MTRR where this was not
desirable.
Where possible match error codes as if MTRRs were disabled on
arch/x86/include/asm/mtrr.h.
Lastly, since disabling MTRRs can happen at run time and we
could end up with PAT enabled, best record now in our logs when
MTRRs are disabled.

This patch adds the argument 'uniform' to mtrr_type_lookup(),
which gets set to 1 when a given range is covered uniformly by
MTRRs, i.e. the range is fully covered by a single MTRR entry or
the default type.
Change pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() to honor the 'uniform'
flag to see if it is safe to create a huge page mapping in the
range.
This allows them to create a huge page mapping in a range
covered by a single MTRR entry of any memory type. It also
detects a non-optimal request properly. They continue to check
with the WB type since it does not effectively change the
uniform mapping even if a request spans multiple MTRR entries.
pmd_set_huge() logs a warning message to a non-optimal request
so that driver writers will be aware of such a case. Drivers
should make a mapping request aligned to a single MTRR entry
when the range is covered by MTRRs.

MTRRs contain fixed and variable entries. mtrr_type_lookup() may
repeatedly call __mtrr_type_lookup() to handle a request that
overlaps with variable entries.
However, __mtrr_type_lookup() also handles the fixed entries,
which do not have to be repeated. Therefore, this patch creates
separate functions, mtrr_type_lookup_fixed() and
mtrr_type_lookup_variable(), to handle the fixed and variable
ranges respectively.
The patch also updates the function headers to clarify the
return values and output argument. It updates comments to
clarify that the repeating is necessary to handle overlaps with
the default type, since overlaps with multiple entries alone can
be handled without such repeating.
There is no functional change in this patch.

'mtrr_state.enabled' contains the FE (fixed MTRRs enabled)
and E (MTRRs enabled) flags in MSR_MTRRdefType. Intel SDM,
section 11.11.2.1, defines these flags as follows:
- All MTRRs are disabled when the E flag is clear.
The FE flag has no affect when the E flag is clear.
- The default type is enabled when the E flag is set.
- MTRR variable ranges are enabled when the E flag is set.
- MTRR fixed ranges are enabled when both E and FE flags
are set.
MTRR state checks in __mtrr_type_lookup() do not match with SDM.
Hence, this patch makes the following changes:
- The current code detects MTRRs disabled when both E and
FE flags are clear in mtrr_state.enabled. Fix to detect
MTRRs disabled when the E flag is clear.
- The current code does not check if the FE bit is set in
mtrr_state.enabled when looking at the fixed entries.
Fix to check the FE flag.
- The current code returns the default type when the E flag
is clear in mtrr_state.enabled. However, the default type
is UC when the E flag is clear. Remove the code as this
case is handled as MTRR disabled with the 1st change.
In addition, this patch defines the E and FE flags in
mtrr_state.enabled as follows.
- FE flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_FIXED_ENABLED
- E flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_ENABLED
print_mtrr_state() and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range() are also updated
accordingly.

When an MTRR entry is inclusive to a requested range, i.e. the
start and end of the request are not within the MTRR entry range
but the range contains the MTRR entry entirely:
range_start ... [mtrr_start ... mtrr_end] ... range_end
__mtrr_type_lookup() ignores such a case because both
start_state and end_state are set to zero.
This bug can cause the following issues:
1) reserve_memtype() tracks an effective memory type in case
a request type is WB (ex. /dev/mem blindly uses WB). Missing
to track with its effective type causes a subsequent request
to map the same range with the effective type to fail.
2) pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() check if a requested range
has any overlap with MTRRs. Missing to detect an overlap may
cause a performance penalty or undefined behavior.
This patch fixes the bug by adding a new flag, 'inclusive',
to detect the inclusive case. This case is then handled in
the same way as end_state:1 since the first region is the same.
With this fix, __mtrr_type_lookup() handles the inclusive case
properly.

x86 has variable length encoding. x86 JIT compiler is trying
to pick the shortest encoding for given bpf instruction.
While doing so the jump targets are changing, so JIT is doing
multiple passes over the program. Typical program needs 3 passes.
Some very short programs converge with 2 passes. Large programs
may need 4 or 5. But specially crafted bpf programs may hit the
pass limit and if the program converges on the last iteration
the JIT compiler will be producing an image full of 'int 3' insns.
Fix this corner case by doing final iteration over bpf program.

The kernel's handling of 'compacted' xsave state layout is buggy:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=142967852317199
I don't have such a system, and the description there is vague, but
from extrapolation I guess that there were two kinds of bugs
observed:
- boot crashes, due to size calculations being wrong and the dynamic
allocation allocating a too small xstate area. (This is now fixed
in the new FPU code - but still present in stable kernels.)
- FPU state corruption and ABI breakage: if signal handlers try to
change the FPU state in standard format, which then the kernel
tries to restore in the compacted format.
These breakages are scary, but they only occur on a small number of
systems that have XSAVES* CPU support. Yet we have had XSAVES support
in the upstream kernel for a large number of stable kernel releases,
and the fixes are involved and unproven.
So do the safe resolution first: disable XSAVES* support and only
use the standard xstate format. This makes the code work and is
easy to backport.
On top of this we can work on enabling (and testing!) proper
compacted format support, without backporting pressure, on top of the
new, cleaned up FPU code.

One CPU booted up per 10 seconds. With 120 CPUs that takes a while.
Bisection pinpointed this commit:
853b160aaa ("Revert f5d6a52f51 ("x86/smpboot: Skip delays during SMP initialization similar to Xen")")
But that commit just restores previous behavior, so it cannot cause the
problem. After some head scratching it turns out that these two commits:
1a744cb356 ("x86/smp/boot: Remove 10ms delay from cpu_up() on modern processors")
d68921f9bd ("x86/smp/boot: Add cmdline "cpu_init_udelay=N" to specify cpu_up() delay")
added the following code to smpboot.c:
- mdelay(10);
+ mdelay(init_udelay);
Note the mismatch in the units: the delay is called 'udelay' and is set
to microseconds - while the function used here is actually 'mdelay',
which counts in milliseconds ...
So the delay for legacy systems is off by a factor of 1,000, so instead
of 10 msecs we waited for 10 seconds ...
The reason bisection pointed to 853b160aaa was that 853b160aaa removed
a (broken) boot-time speedup patch, which masked the factor 1,000 bug.
Fix it by using udelay(). This fixes my bootup problems.

The last line with 'Invalid' should have printed the high level
MCE error type description we get from mce_severity, i.e.
something like:
[Hardware Error]: Machine check: Action required: data load error in a user process
this happens due to the fact that mce_no_way_out() iterates over

used in the panic printing later.
Change behavior to take the message of only and the (last)

The "movw %ds,%cx" instruction needs a 0x66 prefix, while
"movl %ds,%ecx" does not.
The difference is that latter form (on 64-bit CPUs)
overwrites the entire %ecx, not only its lower half.
But subsequent code doesn't depend on the value of upper
half of %ecx, so we can safely use the shorter instruction.
The new code is also faster than the old one - now we don't
depend on the old value of %ecx, but this code fragment is
not performance-critical so it does not matter much.

Packing loops tightly (-falign-loops=1) is beneficial to code size:
text data bss dec filename
12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte
12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte
11976567 1617840 1089536 14683943 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte
11903735 1617840 1089536 14611111 vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte.loops-1-byte
Which reduces the size of the kernel by another 0.6%, so the
the total combined size reduction of the alignment-packing
patches is ~5.5%.
The x86 decoder bandwidth and caching arguments laid out in:
be6cb02779 ("x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries")
apply to loop alignment as well.
Furtermore, modern CPU uarchs have a loop cache/buffer that
is a L0 cache before even any uop cache, covering a few
dozen most recently executed instructions.
This loop cache generally does not have the 16-byte alignment
restrictions of the uop cache.
Now loop alignment can still be beneficial if:
- a loop is cache-hot and its surroundings are not.
- if the loop is so cache hot that the instruction
flow becomes x86 decoder bandwidth limited
But loop alignment is harmful if:
- a loop is cache-cold
- a loop's surroundings are cache-hot as well
- two cache-hot loops are close to each other
- if the loop fits into the loop cache
- if the code flow is not decoder bandwidth limited
and I'd argue that the latter five scenarios are much
more common in the kernel, as our hottest loops are
typically:
- pointer chasing: this should fit into the loop cache
in most cases and is typically data cache and address
generation limited
- generic memory ops (memset, memcpy, etc.): these generally
fit into the loop cache as well, and are likewise data
cache limited.
So this patch packs loop addresses tightly as well.

The following NOP in a hot function caught my attention:
> 5a: 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
That's a dead NOP that bloats the function a bit, added for the
default 16-byte alignment that GCC applies for jump targets.
I realize that x86 CPU manufacturers recommend 16-byte jump
target alignments (it's in the Intel optimization manual),
to help their relatively narrow decoder prefetch alignment
and uop cache constraints, but the cost of that is very
significant:
text data bss dec filename
12566391 1617840 1089536 15273767 vmlinux.align.16-byte
12224951 1617840 1089536 14932327 vmlinux.align.1-byte
By using 1-byte jump target alignment (i.e. no alignment at all)
we get an almost 3% reduction in kernel size (!) - and a
probably similar reduction in I$ footprint.
Now, the usual justification for jump target alignment is the
following:
- modern decoders tend to have 16-byte (effective) decoder
prefetch windows. (AMD documents it higher but measurements
suggest the effective prefetch window on curretn uarchs is
still around 16 bytes)
- on Intel there's also the uop-cache with cachelines that have
16-byte granularity and limited associativity.
- older x86 uarchs had a penalty for decoder fetches that crossed
16-byte boundaries. These limits are mostly gone from recent
uarchs.
So if a forward jump target is aligned to cacheline boundary then
prefetches will start from a new prefetch-cacheline and there's
higher chance for decoding in fewer steps and packing tightly.
But I think that argument is flawed for typical optimized kernel
code flows: forward jumps often go to 'cold' (uncommon) pieces
of code, and aligning cold code to cache lines does not bring a
lot of advantages (they are uncommon), while it causes
collateral damage:
- their alignment 'spreads out' the cache footprint, it shifts
followup hot code further out
- plus it slows down even 'cold' code that immediately follows 'hot'
code (like in the above case), which could have benefited from the
partial cacheline that comes off the end of hot code.
But even in the cache-hot case the 16 byte alignment brings
disadvantages:
- it spreads out the cache footprint, possibly making the code
fall out of the L1 I$.
- On Intel CPUs, recent microarchitectures have plenty of
uop cache (typically doubling every 3 years) - while the
size of the L1 cache grows much less aggressively. So
workloads are rarely uop cache limited.
The only situation where alignment might matter are tight
loops that could fit into a single 16 byte chunk - but those
are pretty rare in the kernel: if they exist they tend
to be pointer chasing or generic memory ops, which both tend
to be cache miss (or cache allocation) intensive and are not
decoder bandwidth limited.
So the balance of arguments strongly favors packing kernel
instructions tightly versus maximizing for decoder bandwidth:
this patch changes the jump target alignment from 16 bytes
to 1 byte (tightly packed, unaligned).
