====================
sparc64: Recover from userspace non-resumable PIO & MEM errors
A non-resumable error from userspace is able to cause a kernel panic or trap
loop due to the setup and handling of the queued traps once in the kernel.
This patch series addresses both of these issues.
The queues are fixed by simply zeroing the memory before use.
PIO errors from userspace will result in a SIGBUS being sent to the user
process.
The MEM errors form userspace will result in a SIGKILL and also cause the
offending pages to be claimed so they are no longer used in future tasks.
SIGKILL is used to ensure that the process does not try to coredump and result
in an attempt to read the memory again from within kernel space. Although
there is a HV call to scrub the memory (mem_scrub), there is no easy way to
guarantee that the real memory address(es) are not used by other tasks.
Clearing the error with mem_scrub would zero the memory and cause the other
processes to proceed with bad data.
The handling of other non-resumable errors remain unchanged and will cause a
panic.

User processes trying to access an invalid memory address via PIO will
receive a SIGBUS signal instead of causing a panic. Memory errors will
receive a SIGKILL since a SIGBUS may result in a coredump which may
attempt to repeat the faulting access.

Error queues use a non-zero first word to detect if the queues are full.
Using pages that have not been zeroed may result in false positive
overflow events. These queues are set up once during boot so zeroing
all mondo and error queue pages is safe.
Note that the false positive overflow does not always occur because the
page allocation for these queues is so early in the boot cycle that
higher number CPUs get fresh pages. It is only when traps are serviced
with lower number CPUs who were given already used pages that this issue
is exposed.

When matching on the ICMPv6 code ICMPV6_CODE rather than
ICMPV4_CODE attributes should be used.
This corrects what appears to be a typo.
Sample usage:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress
tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ipv6 parent ffff: flower \
indev eth0 ip_proto icmpv6 type 128 code 0 action drop
Without this change the code parameter above is effectively ignored.

Some Hypervisors detach VFs from VMs by instantly causing an FLR event
to be generated for a VF.
In the mlx4 case, this will cause that VF's comm channel to be disabled
before the VM has an opportunity to invoke the VF device's "shutdown"
method.
The result is that the VF driver on the VM will experience a command
timeout during the shutdown process when the Hypervisor does not deliver
a command-completion event to the VM.
To avoid FW command timeouts on the VM when the driver's shutdown method
is invoked, we detect the absence of the VF's comm channel at the very
start of the shutdown process. If the comm-channel has already been
disabled, we cause all FW commands during the device shutdown process to
immediately return success (and thus avoid all command timeouts).

In spite of switching to paged allocation of Rx buffers, the driver still
called dma_unmap_single() in the Rx queues tear-down path.
The DMA region unmapping code in free_skb_rx_queue() basically predates
the introduction of paged allocation to the driver. While being refactored,
it apparently hasn't reflected the change in the DMA API usage by its
counterpart gfar_new_page().
As a result, setting an interface to the DOWN state now yields the following:
# ip link set eth2 down

Whilst PCI devices may have 64-bit DMA masks, they still benefit from
using 32-bit addresses wherever possible in order to avoid DAC (PCI) or
longer address packets (PCIe), which may incur a performance overhead.
Implement the same optimisation as other allocators by trying to get a
32-bit address first, only falling back to the full mask if that fails.

iommu_dma_init_domain() was originally written under the misconception
that dma_32bit_pfn represented some sort of size limit for IOVA domains.
Since the truth is almost the exact opposite of that, rework the logic
and comments to reflect its real purpose of optimising lookups when
allocating from a subset of the available 64-bit space.

Debounce value is set globally per community. Otherwise user will easily
get a kernel crash when they start using the feature:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc900003be000
IP: byt_gpio_dbg_show+0xa9/0x430
Make it clear in byt_gpio_reg().
Note that this fix just prevents kernel to crash, but doesn't make any
difference to the existing logic. It means the last caller will win the
trade and debounce value will be configured accordingly. The actual
logic fix needs to be thought about and it's not as important as crash
fix. That's why the latter goes separately and right now.

Although wbinvd() is faster than flushing many individual pages, it blocks
the memory bus for "long" periods of time (>100us), thus directly causing
unusually large latencies on all CPUs, regardless of any CPU isolation
features that may be active. This is an unpriviledged operatation as it is
exposed to user space via the graphics subsystem.
For 1024 pages, flushing those pages individually can take up to 2200us,
but the task remains fully preemptible during that time.

Since commit f3b0946d629c ("genirq/msi: Make sure PCI MSIs are
activated early"), we can end-up activating a PCI/MSI twice (once
at allocation time, and once at startup time).
This is normally of no consequences, except that there is some
HW out there that may misbehave if activate is used more than once
(the GICv3 ITS, for example, uses the activate callback
to issue the MAPVI command, and the architecture spec says that
"If there is an existing mapping for the EventID-DeviceID
combination, behavior is UNPREDICTABLE").
While this could be worked around in each individual driver, it may
make more sense to tackle the issue at the core level. In order to
avoid getting in that situation, let's have a per-interrupt flag
to remember if we have already activated that interrupt or not.

perf has additional overhead when monitoring the task which
frequently generates child tasks.
perf_init_event() is one of the hotspots for the additional overhead:
Currently, to get the PMU, it tries to search the type in pmu_idr at
first. But it is not always successful, especially for the widely used
PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE events. So it has to go to the
slow path which go through the whole PMUs list.
It will be a big performance issue, if the PMUs list is long (e.g. server
with many uncore boxes) and the task frequently generates child tasks.
The child event inherits its parent event. So the child event should

When new events are added to an active context, we go and reschedule
all cpu groups and all task groups in order to preserve the priority
(cpu pinned, task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible), but in
reality we only need to reschedule groups of the same priority as
that of the events being added, and below.
This patch changes the behavior so that only groups that need to be
rescheduled are rescheduled.

In the sched-in path, we first remove a CPU's flexible events in order to
give priority to the task's pinned events. However, this step can be safely
skipped if the task doesn't have its own pinned events.
This patch implements this skipping.

cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs
with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once
in a for_each_pmu loop.
cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they
have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in
hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it.
The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed
the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.

This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about
speeding up the context switch for cgroup events:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/
This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over
the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that
contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event.
This is necessary because the number of PMUs have increased over the years
e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 PMUs.
The iteration over the full PMU list is unneccessary and can be costly in
heavy cache contention scenarios.
Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles
of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for
a simple array read/write microbenchark.
Contention
Level Nr events Before (us) After (us) Median
L2 L3 types (10%, 50%, 90%) (10%, 50%, 90% Speedup
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Low Low 1 (1.72, 2.42, 5.85) (1.35, 1.64, 5.46) 29%
High Low 1 (2.08, 4.56, 19.8) (1720, 2.20, 13.7) 51%
High High 1 (2.86, 10.4, 12.7) (2.54, 4.32, 12.1) 58%
Low Low 2 (1.98, 3.20, 6.89) (1.68, 2.41, 8.89) 24%
High Low 2 (2.48, 5.28, 22.4) (2150, 3.69, 14.6) 30%
High High 2 (3.32, 8.09, 13.9) (2.80, 5.15, 13.7) 36%
where:
1 event type = cycles
2 event types = cycles,intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/
Contention L2 Low: workset < L2 cache size.
High: " >> L2 " " .
Contention L3 Low: workset of task on all sockets < L3 cache size.
High: " " " " " " >> L3 " " .
Median Speedup is (50%ile Before - 50%ile After) / 50%ile Before
Unsurprisingly, the benefits of this optimization decrease with the number
of cpuctxs with a cgroup events, yet, is never detrimental.

The FSMC driver has an execution path and a header file in
<linux/mtd/fsmc.h> that serves to support passing in platform
data through board files, albeit no upstream users of this
mechanism exist.
The header file also contains function headers for functions that
do not exist in the kernel.
Delete this and move the platform data struct, parsing and
handling into the driver, assume we are using OF and make the
driver depend on OF, remove the ifdefs making that optional.

devm_ioremap_resource() does a NULL check on the 'rc' argument, so
remove the unneeded manual NULL check.
While at it, place the 'rc' assignment just before
devm_ioremap_resource() to improve readability.

Since the change in commit:
fd7a4bed1835 ("sched, rt: Convert switched_{from, to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() to balance callbacks")
... we don't reschedule a task under certain circumstances:
Lets say task-A, SCHED_OTHER, is running on CPU0 (and it may run only on
CPU0) and holds a PI lock. This task is removed from the CPU because it
used up its time slice and another SCHED_OTHER task is running. Task-B on
CPU1 runs at RT priority and asks for the lock owned by task-A. This
results in a priority boost for task-A. Task-B goes to sleep until the
lock has been made available. Task-A is already runnable (but not active),
so it receives no wake up.
The reality now is that task-A gets on the CPU once the scheduler decides
to remove the current task despite the fact that a high priority task is
enqueued and waiting. This may take a long time.
The desired behaviour is that CPU0 immediately reschedules after the
priority boost which made task-A the task with the lowest priority.

__migrate_task() can return with a different runqueue locked than the
one we passed as an argument. So that we can repin the lock in
migrate_tasks() (and keep the update_rq_clock() bit) we need to
restore the old rq_flags before repinning.
Note that it wouldn't be correct to change move_queued_task() to repin
because of the change of runqueue and the fact that having an
up-to-date clock on the initial rq doesn't mean the new rq has one
too.
