This code was until recently completely undocumented and even now the comment is
not very verbose.
We've already had one patch sent to remove the IRQ enable/disable because it's
"paradoxical and unnecessary". So document it thoroughly to save anyone else
from puzzling over it.

Add a simple NMI IPI system that handles concurrency and reentrancy.
The platform does not have to implement a true non-maskable interrupt,
the default is to simply use the debugger break IPI message. This has
now been co-opted for a general IPI message, and users (debugger and
crash) have been reimplemented on top of the NMI system.

Change the doorbell callers to know about their msgsnd addressing,
rather than have them set a per-cpu target data tag at boot that gets
sent to the cause_ipi functions. The data is only used for doorbell IPI
functions, no other IPI types, so it makes sense to keep that detail
local to doorbell.
Have the platform code understand doorbell IPIs, rather than the
interrupt controller code understand them. Platform code can look at
capabilities it has available and decide which to use.

Some powerpc platforms use this to move IRQs away from a CPU being
unplugged. This function has several bugs such as not taking the right
locks or failing to NULL check pointers.
There's a new generic function doing exactly the same thing without all
the bugs, so let's use it instead.
mpe: The obvious place for the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION is on
HOTPLUG_CPU, but that doesn't work. On some configs PM_SLEEP_SMP will
select HOTPLUG_CPU even though its dependencies are not met, which means
the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION doesn't happen. That leads to the
build breaking. Fix it by moving the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION to
SMP.

Some platforms (will) need to perform allocations before bringing
a new CPU online. Doing it from smp_ops->setup_cpu is the wrong
thing to do:
- It has no useful failure path (too late)
- Calling any allocator will enable interrupts prematurely
causing problems with large decrementer among others
Instead, add a new callback that is called from __cpu_up (so from
the context trying to online the new CPU) at a point where we
can safely allocate and handle failures.
This will be used by XIVE support.

We are going to split <linux/sched/topology.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.
Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/topology.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.
Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

So the original intention of tsk_cpus_allowed() was to 'future-proof'
the field - but it's pretty ineffectual at that, because half of
the code uses ->cpus_allowed directly ...
Also, the wrapper makes the code longer than the original expression!
So just get rid of it. This also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Commit 2965faa5e0 ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.
Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

The reason of this is that in __cpu_disable(), when we try to set the
cpu_sibling_mask or cpu_core_mask of the sibling CPUs of the disabled
one, we don't check whether the current configuration employs those
sibling CPUs(hw threads). And if a CPU is not employed by a
configuration, the percpu structures cpu_{sibling,core}_mask are not
allocated, therefore accessing those cpumasks will result in problems as
above.
This patch fixes this problem by adding an addition check on whether the
id is no less than nr_cpu_ids in the sibling CPU iteration code.

We plan to use jump label for cpu_has_feature(). In order to implement
this we need to include the linux/jump_label.h in asm/cputable.h.
Unfortunately if we do that it leads to an include loop. The root of the
problem seems to be that reg.h needs cputable.h (for CPU_FTRs), and then
cputable.h via jump_label.h eventually pulls in hw_irq.h which needs
reg.h (for MSR_EE).
So move cpu_has_feature() to a separate file on its own.

Export cpu_to_core_id(). This will be used by the lpfc driver.
This enables topology_core_id() from <linux/topology.h> (defined
to cpu_to_core_id() in arch/powerpc/include/asm/topology.h) to be
used by (non-builtin) modules.
That is arch-neutral, already used by eg, drivers/base/topology.c,
but it is builtin (obj-y in Makefile) thus didn't need the export.
Since the module uses topology_core_id() and this is defined to
cpu_to_core_id(), it needs the export, otherwise:

In order to enable symmetric hotplug, we must mirror the online &&
!active state of cpu-down on the cpu-up side.
However, to retain sanity, limit this state to per-cpu kthreads.
Aside from the change to set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), which allow moving
the per-cpu kthreads on, the other critical piece is the cpu selection
for pinned tasks in select_task_rq(). This avoids dropping into
select_fallback_rq().
select_fallback_rq() cannot be allowed to select !active cpus because
its used to migrate user tasks away. And we do not want to move user
tasks onto cpus that are in transition.

Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so
the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to
convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization
with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the
hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu.

This patch adds support to real-mode KVM to search for a core
running in the host partition and send it an IPI message with
VCPU to be woken. This avoids having to switch to the host
partition to complete an H_IPI hypercall when the VCPU which
is the target of the the H_IPI is not loaded (is not running
in the guest).
The patch also includes the support in the IPI handler running
in the host to do the wakeup by calling kvmppc_xics_ipi_action
for the PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION message.
When a guest is being destroyed, we need to ensure that there
are no pending IPIs waiting to wake up a VCPU before we free
the VCPUs of the guest. This is accomplished by:
- Forces a PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNCTION IPI to be completed by all CPUs
before freeing any VCPUs in kvm_arch_destroy_vm().
- Any PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION messages must be executed first
before any other PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNCTION messages.

smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass() invokes smp_ops->cause_ipi, which
uses an ioremapped address to access registers on the XICS
interrupt controller to cause the IPI. Because of this real
mode callers cannot call smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass() for IPI
messaging.
This patch creates a separate function smp_muxed_ipi_set_message
just to set the IPI message without the cause_ipi routine.
After calling this function to set the IPI message, real
mode callers must cause the IPI by writing to the XICS registers
directly.
As part of this, we also change smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass
to call smp_muxed_ipi_set_message to set the message instead
of doing it directly inside the routine.

This patch increases the number of demuxed messages for a
controller with a single ipi to 8 for 64-bit systems.
This is required because we want to use the IPI mechanism
to send messages from a CPU running in KVM real mode in a
guest to a CPU in the host to take some action. Currently,
we only support 4 messages and all 4 are already taken.
Define a fifth message PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION for this
purpose.

Anton has a busy ppc64le KVM box where guests sometimes hit the infamous
"kernel BUG at kernel/smpboot.c:134!" issue during boot:
BUG_ON(td->cpu != smp_processor_id());
Basically a per CPU hotplug thread scheduled on the wrong CPU. The oops
output confirms it:
CPU: 0
Comm: watchdog/130
The problem is that we aren't ensuring the CPU active bit is set for the
secondary before allowing the master to continue on. The master unparks
the secondary CPU's kthreads and the scheduler looks for a CPU to run
on. It calls select_task_rq() and realises the suggested CPU is not in
the cpus_allowed mask. It then ends up in select_fallback_rq(), and
since the active bit isnt't set we choose some other CPU to run on.
This seems to have been introduced by 6acbfb9697 "sched: Fix hotplug
vs. set_cpus_allowed_ptr()", which changed from setting active before
online to setting active after online. However that was in turn fixing a
bug where other code assumed an active CPU was also online, so we can't
just revert that fix.
The simplest fix is just to spin waiting for both active & online to be
set. We already have a barrier prior to set_cpu_online() (which also
sets active), to ensure all other setup is completed before online &
active are set.

This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does
not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before.
V2->V2
- Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
the macro is removed too.
The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global
register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
__this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
__this_cpu_inc(y)

As Nish suggested, it makes more sense to init the numa node informatiion
for present cpus at boottime, which could also avoid WARN_ON(1) in
numa_setup_cpu().
With this change, we also need to change the smp_prepare_cpus() to set up
numa information only on present cpus.
For those possible, but not present cpus, their numa information
will be set up after they are started, as the original code did before commit

There is an issue currently where NUMA information is used on powerpc
(and possibly ia64) before it has been read from the device-tree, which
leads to large slab consumption with CONFIG_SLUB and memoryless nodes.
NUMA powerpc non-boot CPU's cpu_to_node/cpu_to_mem is only accurate
after start_secondary(), similar to ia64, which is invoked via
smp_init().
Commit 6ee0578b4d ("workqueue: mark init_workqueues() as
early_initcall()") made init_workqueues() be invoked via
do_pre_smp_initcalls(), which is obviously before the secondary
processors are online.
Additionally, the following commits changed init_workqueues() to use
cpu_to_node to determine the node to use for kthread_create_on_node:
bce903809a ("workqueue: add wq_numa_tbl_len and
wq_numa_possible_cpumask[]")
f3f90ad469 ("workqueue: determine NUMA node of workers accourding to
the allowed cpumask")
Therefore, when init_workqueues() runs, it sees all CPUs as being on
Node 0. On LPARs or KVM guests where Node 0 is memoryless, this leads to
a high number of slab deactivations
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html).
Fix this by initializing the powerpc-specific CPU<->node/local memory
node mapping as early as possible, which on powerpc is
do_init_bootmem(). Currently that function initializes the mapping for
the boot CPU, but we extend it to setup the mapping for all possible
CPUs. Then, in smp_prepare_cpus(), we can correspondingly set the
per-cpu values for all possible CPUs. That ensures that before the
early_initcalls run (and really as early as possible), the per-cpu NUMA
mapping is accurate.
While testing memoryless nodes on PowerKVM guests with a fix to the
workqueue logic to use cpu_to_mem() instead of cpu_to_node(), with a
guest topology of:

"Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window. It got
a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.
There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
still want to sort through and test.
The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the
kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly
thanks to Anton and Rusty.
We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that
traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This
meant more churn that just endian fixes.
This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.
There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
*will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).
Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
(the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).
And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."

It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent
to "CPU power". The upcoming "power aware" scheduler work may create
confusion with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too
liberally.
Let's rename the following feature flags since they do relate to capacity:
SD_SHARE_CPUPOWER -> SD_SHARE_CPUCAPACITY
ARCH_POWER -> ARCH_CAPACITY
NONTASK_POWER -> NONTASK_CAPACITY

To support split core we need to change the check in __cpu_up() that
determines if a cpu is allowed to come online.
Currently we refuse to online cpus which are not the primary thread
within their core.
On POWER8 with split core support this check needs to instead refuse to
online cpus which are not the primary thread within their *sub* core.
On POWER7 and other systems that do not support split core,
threads_per_subcore == threads_per_core and so the check is equivalent.

As part of the support for split core on POWER8, we want to be able to
block splitting of the core while KVM VMs are active.
The logic to do that would be exactly the same as the code we currently
have for inhibiting onlining of secondaries.
Instead of adding an identical mechanism to block split core, rework the
secondary inhibit code to be a "HV KVM is active" check. We can then use
that in both the cpu hotplug code and the upcoming split core code.

Based off 3bccd996 for ia64, convert powerpc to use the generic per-CPU
topology tracking, specifically:
initialize per cpu numa_node entry in start_secondary
remove the powerpc cpu_to_node()
define CONFIG_USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID if NUMA

For scalability and performance reasons, we want the tick broadcast IPIs
to be handled as efficiently as possible. Fixed IPI messages
are one of the most efficient mechanisms available - they are faster than
the smp_call_function mechanism because the IPI handlers are fixed and hence
they don't involve costly operations such as adding IPI handlers to the target
CPU's function queue, acquiring locks for synchronization etc.
Luckily we have an unused IPI message slot, so use that to implement
tick broadcast IPIs efficiently.

The IPI handlers for both PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC and PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE map
to a common implementation - generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(). So,
we can consolidate them and save one of the IPI message slots, (which are
precious on powerpc, since only 4 of those slots are available).
So, implement the functionality of PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE using
PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC itself and release its IPI message slot, so that it can be
used for something else in the future, if desired.

Up until now we have only used cpu_to_chip_id() in the topology code,
which is only used on SMP builds. However my recent commit a4da0d5
"Implement arch_get_random_long/int() for powernv" added a usage when
SMP=n, breaking the build.
Move cpu_to_chip_id() into prom.c so it is available for SMP=n builds.
We would move the extern to prom.h, but that breaks the include in
topology.h. Instead we leave it in smp.h, but move it out of the
CONFIG_SMP #ifdef. We also need to include asm/smp.h in rng.c, because
the linux version skips asm/smp.h on UP. What a mess.

cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() serializes CPU online/offline operations
when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE is set. This lock interface is no longer
necessary with the following reason:
- lock_device_hotplug() now protects CPU online/offline operations,
including the probe & release interfaces enabled by
ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE. The use of cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is
redundant.
- cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() is only valid when ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE
is defined, which is misleading and is only enabled on powerpc.
This patch removes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() interface. As
a result, ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE only enables / disables the cpu
probe & release interface as intended. There is no functional change
in this patch.
