x86/mce: Ensure offline CPUs don't participate in rendezvous process

2015-12-19T08:55:31+00:00

Intel's MCA implementation broadcasts MCEs to all CPUs on the
node. This poses a problem for offlined CPUs which cannot
participate in the rendezvous process:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Timeout: Not all CPUs entered broadcast exception handler
  Kernel Offset: disabled
  Rebooting in 100 seconds..

More specifically, Linux does a soft offline of a CPU when
writing a 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online, which
doesn't prevent the #MC exception from being broadcasted to that
CPU.

Ensure that offline CPUs don't participate in the MCE rendezvous
and clear the RIP valid status bit so that a second MCE won't
cause a shutdown.

Without the patch, mce_start() will increment mce_callin and
wait for all CPUs. Offlined CPUs should avoid participating in
the rendezvous process altogether.

We need to add rest of the flags to the constraint mask
instead of another INTEL_ARCH_EVENT_MASK, fixing a typo.

x86/microcode: Initialize the driver late when facilities are up

2015-11-23T09:39:49+00:00

Running microcode_init() from setup_arch() is a bad idea because
not even kmalloc() is ready at that point and the loader does
all kinds of allocations and init/registration with various
subsystems.

Make it a late initcall when required facilities are initialized
so that the microcode driver initialization can succeed too.

Red Hat copyright notices intact.

perf/x86: Fix LBR call stack save/restore

2015-11-23T08:44:57+00:00

This fixes a bug I added in the following commit:

  90405aa02247 ("perf/x86/intel/lbr: Limit LBR accesses to TOS in callstack mode")

The bug could lead to lost LBR call stacks. When restoring the LBR state
we need to use the TOS of the previous context, not the current context.
To do that we need to save/restore the TOS.

perf/core: Robustify the perf_cgroup_from_task() RCU checks

2015-11-23T08:21:03+00:00

This patch reinforces the lockdep checks performed by
perf_cgroup_from_tsk() by passing the perf_event_context
whenever possible. It is okay to not hold the RCU read lock
when we know we hold the ctx->lock. This patch makes sure this
property holds.

In some functions, such as perf_cgroup_sched_in(), we do not
pass the context because we are sure we are holding the RCU
read lock.

x86/cpu: Fix SMAP check in PVOPS environments

2015-11-19T10:07:49+00:00

There appears to be no formal statement of what pv_irq_ops.save_fl() is
supposed to return precisely.  Native returns the full flags, while lguest and
Xen only return the Interrupt Flag, and both have comments by the
implementations stating that only the Interrupt Flag is looked at.  This may
have been true when initially implemented, but no longer is.

To make matters worse, the Xen PVOP leaves the upper bits undefined, making
the BUG_ON() undefined behaviour.  Experimentally, this now trips for 32bit PV
guests on Broadwell hardware.  The BUG_ON() is consistent for an individual
build, but not consistent for all builds.  It has also been a sitting timebomb
since SMAP support was introduced.

Use native_save_fl() instead, which will obtain an accurate view of the AC
flag.
