   - make the Global Physical Address calculation for UV4 systems work
     correctly.

MCA bank 3 is reserved on systems pre-Fam17h, so it didn't have a name.
However, MCA bank 3 is defined on Fam17h systems and can be accessed
using legacy MSRs. Without a name we get a stack trace on Fam17h systems
when trying to register sysfs files for bank 3 on kernels that don't
recognize Scalable MCA.

Call MCA bank 3 "decode_unit" since this is what it represents on
Fam17h. This will allow kernels without SMCA support to see this bank on
Fam17h+ and prevent the stack trace. This will not affect older systems
since this bank is reserved on them, i.e. it'll be ignored.

Tested on AMD Fam15h and Fam17h systems.

<title>x86/build: Mostly disable '-maccumulate-outgoing-args'</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=3f135e57a4f76d24ae8d8a490314331f0ced40c5'/>
<id>3f135e57a4f76d24ae8d8a490314331f0ced40c5</id>
<content type='text'>
The GCC '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' flag is enabled for most configs,
mostly because of issues which are no longer relevant.  For most
configs, and with most recent versions of GCC, it's no longer needed.

Clarify which cases need it, and only enable it for those cases.  Also
produce a compile-time error for the ftrace graph + mcount + '-Os' case,
which will otherwise cause runtime failures.

The main benefit of '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' is that it prevents an
ugly prologue for functions which have aligned stacks.  But removing the
option also has some benefits: more readable argument saves, smaller
text size, and (presumably) slightly improved performance.

Here are the object size savings for 32-bit and 64-bit defconfig
kernels:

      text	   data	    bss	     dec	    hex	filename
  10006710	3543328	1773568	15323606	 e9d1d6	vmlinux.x86-32.before
   9706358	3547424	1773568	15027350	 e54c96	vmlinux.x86-32.after

      text	   data	    bss	     dec	    hex	filename
  10652105	4537576	 843776	16033457	 f4a6b1	vmlinux.x86-64.before
  10639629	4537576	 843776	16020981	 f475f5	vmlinux.x86-64.after

That comes out to a 3% text size improvement on x86-32 and a 0.1% text
size improvement on x86-64.

People reported that commit:

  5680d8094ffa ("sched/clock: Provide better clock continuity")

broke "perf test tsc".

That commit added another offset to the reported clock value; so
take that into account when computing the provided offset values.

The calculation of the global physical address (GPA) on UV4 is

The rdtgroup_kn_unlock waits for the last user to release and put its
node. But it's calling kernfs_put on the node which calls the
rdtgroup_kn_unlock, which might not be the group's directory node, but
another group's file node.

This race could be easily reproduced by running 2 instances
of following script:

  mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
  pushd /sys/fs/resctrl/
  mkdir krava
  echo "krava" &gt; krava/schemata
  rmdir krava
  popd
  umount  /sys/fs/resctrl

It triggers the slub debug error message with following command
line config: slub_debug=,kernfs_node_cache.

Call kernfs_put on the group's node to fix it.

<title>x86/unwind: Fix last frame check for aligned function stacks</title>

Pavel Machek reported the following warning on x86-32:

  WARNING: kernel stack frame pointer at f50cdf98 in swapper/2:0 has bad value   (null)

The warning is caused by the unwinder not realizing that it reached the
end of the stack, due to an unusual prologue which gcc sometimes
generates for aligned stacks.  The prologue is based on a gcc feature
called the Dynamic Realign Argument Pointer (DRAP).  It's almost always
enabled for aligned stacks when -maccumulate-outgoing-args isn't set.

This issue is similar to the one fixed by the following commit:

  8023e0e2a48d ("x86/unwind: Adjust last frame check for aligned function stacks")

... but that fix was specific to x86-64.

Make the fix more generic to cover x86-32 as well, and also ensure that
the return address referred to by the frame pointer is a copy of the
original return address.

<title>x86/kasan: Fix boot with KASAN=y and PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES=y</title>

The kernel doesn't boot with both PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES=y and KASAN=y
options selected. With branch profiling enabled we end up calling
ftrace_likely_update() before kasan_early_init(). ftrace_likely_update() is
built with KASAN instrumentation, so calling it before kasan has been
initialized leads to crash.

Use DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING define to make sure that we don't call
ftrace_likely_update() from early code before kasan_early_init().
