This patch adds platform dependency into the test case 15
(perf_event_attr). It is based on a suggestion from Jiri Olsa.
Add a new optional attribute named 'arch' in the [config] section of the
test case file. It is a comma separated list of architecture names this
test can be executed on. For example:
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
If this attribute is missing the test is executed on any platform. This
does not break existing behavior.
The values listed for this attribute should be identical to uname -m
output.
If the list starts with an exclamation mark (!) the comparison is
inverted, for example for
arch = !s390x,ppc
the test is not executed on s390x or ppc platforms. The exclamation
mark must be at the beginnning of the list.
Here is an example debug output:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C2
arch = x86_64,alpha,ppc
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
running './tests/attr//test-stat-C1'
test limitation 'x86_64,alpha,ppc' <--- new
loading expected events
Event event:base-stat
fd = 1
group_fd = -1
.....
Here is the output when a test is skipped:
[root@s35lp76]# fgrep arch tests/attr/test-stat-C1
arch = !s390x
[root@s35lp76]# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py \
-d ./tests/attr/ -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-stat-C1
provides the following output:
test limitation '!s390x' <--- new
skipped [s390x] './tests/attr//test-stat-C1' <--- new
The test is skipped with return code 0.

Description of Lowest Perfomance in ACPI 6.1 specification states:
"Lowest Performance is the absolute lowest performance level of
the platform. Selecting a performance level lower than the lowest
nonlinear performance level may actually cause an efficiency penalty,
but should reduce the instantaneous power consumption of the processor.
In traditional terms, this represents the T-state range of performance
levels."
Set the default value of policy->min to Lowest Nonlinear Performance
to avoid any potential efficiency penalty.

AMD systems support the Monitor/Mwait instructions and these can be used
for ACPI C1 in the same way as on Intel systems.
Three things are needed:
1) This patch.
2) BIOS that declares a C1 state in _CST to use FFH, with correct values.
3) CPUID_Fn00000005_EDX is non-zero on the system.
The BIOS on AMD systems have historically not defined a C1 state in _CST,
so the acpi_idle driver uses HALT for ACPI C1.
Currently released systems have CPUID_Fn00000005_EDX as reserved/RAZ. If a
BIOS is released for these systems that requests a C1 state with FFH, the
FFH implementation in Linux will fail since CPUID_Fn00000005_EDX is 0. The
acpi_idle driver will then fallback to using HALT for ACPI C1.
Future systems are expected to have non-zero CPUID_Fn00000005_EDX and BIOS
support for using FFH for ACPI C1.
Allow ffh_cstate_init() to succeed on AMD systems.
Tested on Fam15h and Fam17h systems.

The wakeirq infrastructure uses RCU to protect the list of wakeirqs. That
breaks the irq bus locking infrastructure, which is allows sleeping
functions to be called so interrupt controllers behind slow busses,
e.g. i2c, can be handled.
The wakeirq functions hold rcu_read_lock and call into irq functions, which
in case of interrupts using the irq bus locking will trigger a
might_sleep() splat.
Convert the wakeirq infrastructure to Sleepable RCU and unbreak it.

When the governor is set to "performance", intel_pstate does not
need the scheduler hook for doing any calculations. Under these
conditions, its only purpose is to continue to maintain
cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq.
The cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute is now provided by
shared x86 cpufreq code on modern x86 systems, including
all systems supported by the intel_pstate driver.
So in "performance" governor mode, the scheduler hook can be skipped.
This applies to both in Software and Hardware P-state control modes.

The goal of this change is to give users a uniform and meaningful
result when they read /sys/...cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq
on modern x86 hardware, as compared to what they get today.
Modern x86 processors include the hardware needed
to accurately calculate frequency over an interval --
APERF, MPERF, and the TSC.
Here we provide an x86 routine to make this calculation
on supported hardware, and use it in preference to any
driver driver-specific cpufreq_driver.get() routine.
MHz is computed like so:
MHz = base_MHz * delta_APERF / delta_MPERF
MHz is the average frequency of the busy processor
over a measurement interval. The interval is
defined to be the time between successive invocations
of aperfmperf_khz_on_cpu(), which are expected to to
happen on-demand when users read sysfs attribute
cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq.
As with previous methods of calculating MHz,
idle time is excluded.
base_MHz above is from TSC calibration global "cpu_khz".
This x86 native method to calculate MHz returns a meaningful result
no matter if P-states are controlled by hardware or firmware
and/or if the Linux cpufreq sub-system is or is-not installed.
When this routine is invoked more frequently, the measurement
interval becomes shorter. However, the code limits re-computation
to 10ms intervals so that average frequency remains meaningful.
Discerning users are encouraged to take advantage of
the turbostat(8) utility, which can gracefully handle
concurrent measurement intervals of arbitrary length.

Due to user writes being decoupled from media writes because of the need
of an intermediate write buffer, irrecoverable media write errors lead
to pblk stalling; user writes fill up the buffer and end up in an
infinite retry loop.
In order to let user writes fail gracefully, it is necessary for pblk to
keep track of its own internal state and prevent further writes from
being placed into the write buffer.
This patch implements a state machine to keep track of internal errors
and, in case of failure, fail further user writes in an standard way.
Depending on the type of error, pblk will do its best to persist
buffered writes (which are already acknowledged) and close down on a
graceful manner. This way, data might be recovered by re-instantiating
pblk. Such state machine paves out the way for a state-based FTL log.

At the moment, in order to get enough read parallelism, we have recycled
several lines at the same time. This approach has proven not to work
well when reaching capacity, since we end up mixing valid data from all
lines, thus not maintaining a sustainable free/recycled line ratio.
The new design, relies on a two level workqueue mechanism. In the first
level, we read the metadata for a number of lines based on the GC list
they reside on (this is governed by the number of valid sectors in each
line). In the second level, we recycle a single line at a time. Here, we
issue reads in parallel, while a single GC write thread places data in
the write buffer. This design allows to (i) only move data from one line
at a time, thus maintaining a sane free/recycled ration and (ii)
maintain the GC writer busy with recycled data.

At the moment, we separate the closed lines on three different list
based on their number of valid sectors. GC recycles lines from each list
based on capacity. Lines from each list are taken in a FIFO fashion.
Since the number of lines is limited (it corresponds to the number of
blocks in a LUN, which is somewhere between 1000-2000), we can afford
scanning the lists to choose the optimal line to be recycled. This helps
specially in lines with a high number of valid sectors.
If the number of blocks per LUN increases, we will consider a more
efficient policy.

At the moment, line metadata is persisted on a separate work queue, that
is kicked each time that a line is closed. The assumption when designing
this was that freeing the write thread from creating a new write request
was better than the potential impact of writes colliding on the media
(user I/O and metadata I/O). Experimentation has proven that this
assumption is wrong; collision can cause up to 25% of bandwidth and
introduce long tail latencies on the write thread, which potentially
cause user write threads to spend more time spinning to get a free entry
on the write buffer.
This patch moves the metadata logic to the write thread. When a line is
closed, remaining metadata is written in memory and is placed on a
metadata queue. The write thread then takes the metadata corresponding
to the previous line, creates the write request and schedules it to
minimize collisions on the media. Using this approach, we see that we
can saturate the media's bandwidth, which helps reducing both write
latencies and the spinning time for user writer threads.

Erase I/Os are scheduled with the following goals in mind: (i) minimize
LUNs collisions with write I/Os, and (ii) even out the price of erasing
on every write, instead of putting all the burden on when garbage
collection runs. This works well on the current design, but is specific
to the default mapping algorithm.
This patch generalizes the erase path so that other mapping algorithms
can select an arbitrary line to be erased instead. It also gets rid of
the erase semaphore since it creates jittering for user writes.

The MCE severity gives a hint as to how to handle the error. The
notifier blocks can then use the severity to decide on an action.
It's not necessary for machine_check_poll() to filter errors for
the notifier chain, since each block will check its own set of
conditions before handling an error.
Also, there isn't any urgency for machine_check_poll() to make decisions
based on severity like in do_machine_check().
If we can assume that a severity is set then we can use it in more
notifier blocks. For example, the CEC block could check for a "KEEP"
severity rather than checking bits in the status. This isn't possible
now since the severity is not set except for "DEFFRRED/UCNA" errors with
a valid address.
Save the severity since we have it, and let the notifier blocks decide
if they want to do anything.

The helper function __load_ucode_amd() and pointer intel_ucode_patch do
not need to be in global scope, so make them static.
Fixes those sparse warnings:
"symbol '__load_ucode_amd' was not declared. Should it be static?"
"symbol 'intel_ucode_patch' was not declared. Should it be static?"

Check irq state in enable/disable/unmask/mask_irq to avoid unnecessary
low level irq function calls.
This has two advantages:
- Conditionals are faster than hardware access
- Solves issues with the underlying refcounting of the pinctrl
infrastructure

Larry Finger reported that his Powerbook G4 was no longer booting with v4.12-rc,
userspace was up but giving weird errors such as:
udevd[64]: starting version 175
udevd[64]: Unable to receive ctrl message: Bad address.
modprobe: chdir(4.12-rc1): No such file or directory
He bisected the problem to commit 3448890c32c3 ("powerpc: get rid of zeroing,
switch to RAW_COPY_USER").
Al identified that the problem is actually a miscompilation by GCC 4.6.3, which
is exposed by the above commit.
Al also pointed out that inlining copy_to/from_user() is probably of little or
no benefit, which is correct. Using Anton's copy_to_user benchmark, with a
pathological single byte copy, we see a small increase in performance
by *removing* inlining:
Before (inlined):
# time ./copy_to_user -w -l 1 -i 10000000 ( x 3 )
real 0m22.063s
real 0m22.059s
real 0m22.076s
After:
# time ./copy_to_user -w -l 1 -i 10000000 ( x 3 )
real 0m21.325s
real 0m21.299s
real 0m21.364s
So as a small performance improvement and to avoid the miscompilation, drop
inlining copy_to/from_user() on 32-bit.

The hash table created during vmw_cmdbuf_res_man_create was
never freed. This causes memory leak in context creation.
Added the corresponding drm_ht_remove in vmw_cmdbuf_res_man_destroy.
Tested for memory leak by running piglit overnight and kernel
memory is not inflated which earlier was.
