This patch is based on Andi Kleen's work:
Implement autoprobing/loading of modules serving CPU
specific features (x86cpu autoloading).
And Kay Siever's work to get rid of sysdev cpu structures
and making use of struct device instead.
Before, the cpuid driver had to be loaded to get the x86cpu
autoloading feature. With this patch autoloading works through
the /sys/devices/system/cpu object

It is rather similar to CPB (boot capability) feature
and exists since fam10h (can be looked up in AMD's BKDG).
The feature is needed for powernow-k8 to cleanup init functions and to
provide proper autoloading matching with the new x86cpu modalias
feature.

There's a growing number of drivers that support a specific x86 feature
or CPU. Currently loading these drivers currently on a generic
distribution requires various driver specific hacks and it often
doesn't work.
This patch adds auto probing for drivers based on the x86 cpuid
information, in particular based on vendor/family/model number
and also based on CPUID feature bits.
For example a common issue is not loading the SSE 4.2 accelerated
CRC module: this can significantly lower the performance of BTRFS
which relies on fast CRC.
Another issue is loading the right CPUFREQ driver for the current CPU.
Currently distributions often try all all possible driver until
one sticks, which is not really a good way to do this.
It works with existing udev without any changes. The code
exports the x86 information as a generic string in sysfs
that can be matched by udev's pattern matching.
This scheme does not support numeric ranges, so if you want to
handle e.g. ranges of model numbers they have to be encoded
in ASCII or simply all models or families listed. Fixing
that would require changing udev.
Another issue is that udev will happily load all drivers that match,
there is currently no nice way to stop a specific driver from
being loaded if it's not needed (e.g. if you don't need fast CRC)
But there are not that many cpu specific drivers around and they're
all not that bloated, so this isn't a particularly serious issue.
Originally this patch added the modalias to the normal cpu
sysdevs. However sysdevs don't have all the infrastructure
needed for udev, so it couldn't really autoload drivers.
This patch instead adds the CPU modaliases to the cpuid devices,
which are real devices with full support for udev. This implies
that the cpuid driver has to be loaded to use this.
This patch just adds infrastructure, some driver conversions
in followups.
Thanks to Kay for helping with some sysfs magic.
v2: Constifcation, some updates
v4: (trenn@suse.de):
- Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc to terminate modalias buffer
- Use uppercase hex values to match correctly against hex values containing
letters

When suspending, there was a large list of warnings going something like:
Device 'machinecheck1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed
This patch turns the static mce_devices into dynamically allocated, and
properly frees them when they are removed from the system. It solves
the warning messages on my laptop here.

Commit 8a25a2fd12 ("cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class

subsystem. Some of the things that got broken due to this are CPU
hotplug and suspend/hibernate.
MCE uses per_cpu allocations of struct device. So, when a CPU goes
offline and comes back online, in order to ensure that we start from a
clean slate with respect to the MCE subsystem, zero out the entire
per_cpu device structure to 0 before using it.

This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
implemented as subsystem interfaces now.
After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.
Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out a case that can cause issues with
NMIs running on the debug stack:
int3 -> interrupt -> NMI -> int3
Because the interrupt changes the stack, the NMI will not see that
it preempted the debug stack. Looking deeper at this case,
interrupts only happen when the int3 is from userspace or in
an a location in the exception table (fixup).
userspace -> int3 -> interurpt -> NMI -> int3
All other int3s that happen in the kernel should be processed
without ever enabling interrupts, as the do_trap() call will
panic the kernel if it is called to process any other location
within the kernel.
Adding a counter around the sections that enable interrupts while
using the debug stack allows the NMI to also check that case.
If the NMI sees that it either interrupted a task using the debug
stack or the debug counter is non-zero, then it will have to
change the IDT table to make the int3 not change stacks (which will
corrupt the stack if it does).
Note, I had to move the debug_usage functions out of processor.h
and into debugreg.h because of the static inlined functions to
inc and dec the debug_usage counter. __get_cpu_var() requires
smp.h which includes processor.h, and would fail to build.

We want to allow NMI handlers to have breakpoints to be able to
remove stop_machine from ftrace, kprobes and jump_labels. But if
an NMI interrupts a current breakpoint, and then it triggers a
breakpoint itself, it will switch to the breakpoint stack and
corrupt the data on it for the breakpoint processing that it
interrupted.
Instead, have the NMI check if it interrupted breakpoint processing
by checking if the stack that is currently used is a breakpoint
stack. If it is, then load a special IDT that changes the IST
for the debug exception to keep the same stack in kernel context.
When the NMI is done, it puts it back.
This way, if the NMI does trigger a breakpoint, it will keep
using the same stack and not stomp on the breakpoint data for
the breakpoint it interrupted.

Several fields in struct cpuinfo_x86 were not defined for the
!SMP case, likely to save space. However, those fields still
have some meaning for UP, and keeping them allows some #ifdef
removal from other files. The additional size of the UP kernel
from this change is not significant enough to worry about
keeping up the distinction:
text data bss dec hex filename
4737168 506459 972040 6215667 5ed7f3 vmlinux.o.before
4737444 506459 972040 6215943 5ed907 vmlinux.o.after
for a difference of 276 bytes for an example UP config.
If someone wants those 276 bytes back badly then it should
be implemented in a cleaner way.

Thermal throttle and power limit events are not defined as MCE errors in x86
architecture and should not generate MCE errors in mcelog.
Current kernel generates fake software defined MCE errors for these events.
This may confuse users because they may think the machine has real MCE errors
while actually only thermal throttle or power limit events happen.
To make it worse, buggy firmware on some platforms may falsely generate
the events. Therefore, kernel reports MCE errors which users think as real
hardware errors. Although the firmware bugs should be fixed, on the other hand,
kernel should not report MCE errors either.
So mcelog is not a good mechanism to report these events. To report the events, we count them in respective counters (core_power_limit_count,
package_power_limit_count, core_throttle_count, and package_throttle_count) in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/thermal_throttle/. Users can check the counters
for each event on each CPU. Please note that all CPU's on one package report
duplicate counters. It's user application's responsibity to retrieve a package
level counter for one package.
This patch doesn't report package level power limit, core level power limit, and
package level thermal throttle events in mcelog. When the events happen, only
report them in respective counters in sysfs.
Since core level thermal throttle has been legacy code in kernel for a while and
users accepted it as MCE error in mcelog, core level thermal throttle is still
reported in mcelog. In the mean time, the event is counted in a counter in sysfs
as well.

The current x86 event scheduler fails to resolve scheduling problems
of certain combinations of events and constraints. This happens if the
counter mask of such an event is not a subset of any other counter
mask of a constraint with an equal or higher weight, e.g. constraints
of the AMD family 15h pmu:
counter mask weight
amd_f15_PMC30 0x09 2 <--- overlapping counters
amd_f15_PMC20 0x07 3
amd_f15_PMC53 0x38 3
The scheduler does not find then an existing solution. Here is an
example:
event code counter failure possible solution
0x02E PMC[3,0] 0 3
0x043 PMC[2:0] 1 0
0x045 PMC[2:0] 2 1
0x046 PMC[2:0] FAIL 2
The event scheduler may not select the correct counter in the first
cycle because it needs to know which subsequent events will be
scheduled. It may fail to schedule the events then.
To solve this, we now save the scheduler state of events with
overlapping counter counstraints. If we fail to schedule the events
we rollback to those states and try to use another free counter.
Constraints with overlapping counters are marked with a new introduced
overlap flag. We set the overlap flag for such constraints to give the
scheduler a hint which events to select for counter rescheduling. The
EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP() macro can be used for this.
Care must be taken as the rescheduling algorithm is O(n!) which will
increase scheduling cycles for an over-commited system dramatically.
The number of such EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP() macros and its counter
masks must be kept at a minimum. Thus, the current stack is limited to
2 states to limit the number of loops the algorithm takes in the worst
case.
On systems with no overlapping-counter constraints, this
implementation does not increase the loop count compared to the
previous algorithm.
V2:
* Renamed redo -> overlap.
* Reimplementation using perf scheduling helper functions.
V3:
* Added WARN_ON_ONCE() if out of save states.
* Changed function interface of perf_sched_restore_state() to use bool
as return value.

This patch introduces x86 perf scheduler code helper functions. We
need this to later add more complex functionality to support
overlapping counter constraints (next patch).
The algorithm is modified so that the range of weight values is now
generated from the constraints. There shouldn't be other functional
changes.
With the helper functions the scheduler is controlled. There are
functions to initialize, traverse the event list, find unused counters
etc. The scheduler keeps its own state.
V3:
* Added macro for_each_set_bit_cont().
* Changed functions interfaces of perf_sched_find_counter() and
perf_sched_next_event() to use bool as return value.
* Added some comments to make code better understandable.
V4:
* Fix broken event assignment if weight of the first event is not
wmin (perf_sched_init()).

I used "ifdef CONFIG_NUMA" simply because it doesn't make
sense in a non-numa configuration even with SMP enabled.
Besides, the only place where it is called right now is
in kernel/cpu/amd.c:srat_detect_node() within the
"CONFIG_NUMA" protected part.

Following is from Notes of section 11.5.3 of Intel processor
manual available at:
http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/manual/325384.pdf
For the Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors, after the sequence of
steps given above has been executed, the cache lines containing the
code between the end of the WBINVD instruction and before the
MTRRS have actually been disabled may be retained in the cache
hierarchy. Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a
second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have
been disabled.
This patch provides resolution for that.
Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon
processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it.
And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other
processors.

On AMD family 10h we see firmware bug messages like the following:
[Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x10400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
[Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, IBS interrupt offset 0 not available (MSRC001103A=0x0000000000000100)
[Firmware Bug]: using offset 1 for IBS interrupts
[Firmware Bug]: workaround enabled for IBS LVT offset
perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007)
We always see this, since the offsets are not assigned by the BIOS for
this family. Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS
assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this.
The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since
force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines.
But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct.
Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT
offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that
families.
With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish. We see now:
IBS: LVT offset 1 assigned
perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007)
