Unlike on 32-bit ARM, where we need to pass the stub's version of struct
screen_info to the kernel proper via a configuration table, on 64-bit ARM
it simply involves making the core kernel's copy of struct screen_info
visible to the stub by exposing an __efistub_ alias for it.

The Graphics Output Protocol code executes in the stub, so create a generic
version based on the x86 version in libstub so that we can move other archs
to it in subsequent patches. The new source file gop.c is added to the

In preparation of moving this code to drivers/firmware/efi and reusing
it on ARM and arm64, apply any changes that will be required to make this
code build for other architectures. This should make it easier to track
down problems that this move may cause to its operation on x86.
Note that the generic version uses slightly different ways of casting the
protocol methods and some other variables to the correct types, since such
method calls are not loosely typed on ARM and arm64 as they are on x86.

This implements shared support for discovering the presence of the
Memory Attributes table, and for parsing and validating its contents.
The table is validated against the construction rules in the UEFI spec.
Since this is a new table, it makes sense to complain if we encounter
a table that does not follow those rules.
The parsing and validation routine takes a callback that can be specified
per architecture, that gets passed each unique validated region, with the
virtual address retrieved from the ordinary memory map.

Recent UEFI versions expose permission attributes for runtime services
memory regions, either in the UEFI memory map or in the separate memory
attributes table. This allows the kernel to map these regions with
stricter permissions, rather than the RWX permissions that are used by
default. So wire this up in our mapping routine.
Note that in the absence of permission attributes, we still only map
regions of type EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICE_CODE with the executable bit set.
Also, we base the mapping attributes of EFI_MEMORY_MAPPED_IO on the
type directly rather than on the absence of the EFI_MEMORY_WB attribute.
This is more correct, but is also required for compatibility with the
upcoming support for the Memory Attributes Table, which only carries
permission attributes, not memory type attributes.

Instead of using ioremap_cache(), which is slightly inappropriate for
mapping firmware tables, and is not even allowed on ARM for mapping
regions that are covered by a struct page, use memremap(), which was
invented for this purpose, and will also reuse the existing kernel
direct mapping if the requested region is covered by it.

Abolish the poorly named EFI memory map, 'memmap'. It is shadowed by a
bunch of local definitions in various files and having two ways to
access the EFI memory map ('efi.memmap' vs. 'memmap') is rather
confusing.
Furthermore, IA64 doesn't even provide this global object, which has
caused issues when trying to write generic EFI memmap code.
Replace all occurrences with efi.memmap, and convert the remaining
iterator code to use for_each_efi_mem_desc().

Most of the users of for_each_efi_memory_desc() are equally happy
iterating over the EFI memory map in efi.memmap instead of 'memmap',
since the former is usually a pointer to the latter.
For those users that want to specify an EFI memory map other than
efi.memmap, that can be done using for_each_efi_memory_desc_in_map().
One such example is in the libstub code where the firmware is queried
directly for the memory map, it gets iterated over, and then freed.
This change goes part of the way toward deleting the global 'memmap'
variable, which is not universally available on all architectures
(notably IA64) and is rather poorly named.

The platform firmware is operating in secure boot mode if the value of
the SetupMode variable is 0 and the SecureBoot variable is set to 1. A
platform cannot operate in secure boot mode if the SetupMode variable
is set to 1.
Check the value of the SetupMode variable when determining the state of
Secure Boot.

Certain code in the boot path may require the ability to determine whether
UEFI Secure Boot is definitely enabled, for example printing status to the
console. Other code may need to know when UEFI Secure Boot is definitely
disabled, for example restricting use of kernel parameters.
If an unexpected error is returned from GetVariable() when querying the
status of UEFI Secure Boot, return an error to the caller. This allows the
caller to determine the definite state, and to take appropriate action if
an expected error is returned.

Commit:
2eec5dedf770 ("efi/arm-init: Use read-only early mappings")
updated the early ARM UEFI init code to create the temporary, early
mapping of the UEFI System table using read-only attributes, as a
hardening measure against inadvertent modification.
However, this still leaves the permanent, writable mapping of the UEFI
System table, which is only ever referenced during invocations of UEFI
Runtime Services, at which time the UEFI virtual mapping is available,
which also covers the system table. (This is guaranteed by the fact that
SetVirtualAddressMap(), which is a runtime service itself, converts
various entries in the table to their virtual equivalents, which implies
that the table must be covered by a RuntimeServicesData region that has
the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute.)
So instead of creating this permanent mapping, record the virtual address
of the system table inside the UEFI virtual mapping, and dereference that
when accessing the table. This protects the contents of the system table
from inadvertent (or deliberate) modification when no UEFI Runtime
Services calls are in progress.

It appears people are reading this document as a requirements list for
building hardware. This is not the intent of this document. Nor is it
particularly suited for this purpose.
The primary purpose of this document is our collective attempt to define
a set of primitives that (hopefully) allow us to write correct code on
the myriad of SMP platforms Linux supports.
Its a definite work in progress as our understanding of these platforms,
and memory ordering in general, progresses.
Nor does being mentioned in this document mean we think its a
particularly good idea; the data dependency barrier required by Alpha
being a prime example. Yes we have it, no you're insane to require it
when building new hardware.

Sometimes delta_exec is 0 due to update_curr() is called multiple times,
this is captured by:
u64 delta_exec = rq_clock_task(rq) - curr->se.exec_start;
This patch optimizes the cpufreq update kicker by bailing out when nothing

Skylake processor supports a new set of RAPL registers for controlling
entire SoC instead of just CPU package. This is useful for thermal
and power control when source of power/thermal is not just CPU/GPU.
This change adds a new platform domain (AKA PSys) to the current
power capping Intel RAPL driver.
PSys also supports PL1 (long term) and PL2 (short term) control like
package domain. This also follows same MSRs for energy and time
units as package domain.
Unlike package domain, PSys support requires more than just processor
level implementation. The other parts in the system need additional
implementation, which OEMs needs to support. So not all Skylake
systems will support PSys.

This patch fixes a bug which was introduced by:
b16a5b52eb90 ("perf/x86: Add option to disable reading branch flags/cycles")
In this patch, lbr_sel_mask is used to mask the lbr_select. But LBR_SEL_MASK
doesn't include the bit for LBR_CALL_STACK. So LBR call stack will never be
set in lbr_select.
This patch corrects the LBR_SEL_MASK by including all valid bits in
LBR_SELECT. Also, the LBR_CALL_STACK bit is different as other bit in
LBR_SELECT. It does not operate in suppress mode, so it needs to be
specially handled in intel_pmu_setup_hw_lbr_filter.

Some versions of Intel PT do not support tracing across VMXON, more
specifically, VMXON will clear TraceEn control bit and any attempt to
set it before VMXOFF will throw a #GP, which in the current state of
things will crash the kernel. Namely:
$ perf record -e intel_pt// kvm -nographic
on such a machine will kill it.
To avoid this, notify the intel_pt driver before VMXON and after
VMXOFF so that it knows when not to enable itself.

Jann reported that the ptrace_may_access() check in
find_lively_task_by_vpid() is racy against exec().
Specifically:
perf_event_open() execve()
ptrace_may_access()
commit_creds()
... if (get_dumpable() != SUID_DUMP_USER)
perf_event_exit_task();
perf_install_in_context()
would result in installing a counter across the creds boundary.
Fix this by wrapping lots of perf_event_open() in cred_guard_mutex.
This should be fine as perf_event_exit_task() is already called with
cred_guard_mutex held, so all perf locks already nest inside it.

Chris Metcalf reported a that sched_can_stop_tick() sometimes fails to
re-enable the tick.
His observed problem is that rq->cfs.nr_running can be 1 even though
there are multiple runnable CFS tasks. This happens in the cgroup
case, in which case cfs.nr_running is the number of runnable entities
for that level.
If there is a single runnable cgroup (which can have an arbitrary
number of runnable child entries itself) rq->cfs.nr_running will be 1.
However, looking at that function I think there's more problems with it.
It seems to assume that if there's FIFO tasks, those will run. This is
incorrect. The FIFO task can have a lower prio than an RR task, in which
case the RR task will run.
So the whole fifo_nr_running test seems misplaced, it should go after
the rr_nr_running tests. That is, only if !rr_nr_running, can we use
fifo_nr_running like this.

A while ago, commit 9875201e1049 ("rbd: fix use-after free of

an exported wrapper for flushing notifies and sticking it into
do_rbd_remove().
A similar problem exists on the rbd map path, though: the watch is
registered in rbd_dev_image_probe(), while the disk is set up quite
a few steps later, in rbd_dev_device_setup(). Nothing prevents
a notify from coming in and crashing on a NULL rbd_dev->disk:

If x86_vector_alloc_irq() fails x86_vector_free_irqs() is invoked to cleanup
the already allocated vectors. This subsequently calls clear_vector_irq().
The failed irq has no vector assigned, which triggers the BUG_ON(!vector) in
clear_vector_irq().
We cannot suppress the call to x86_vector_free_irqs() for the failed
interrupt, because the other data related to this irq must be cleaned up as
well. So calling clear_vector_irq() with vector == 0 is legitimate.
Remove the BUG_ON and return if vector is zero,

When policy->max is changed via _PPC or sysfs and is more than the max non
turbo frequency, it does not really change resulting performance in some
processors. When policy->max results in a P-State ratio more than the
turbo activation ratio, then processor can choose any P-State up to max
turbo. So the user or _PPC setting has no value, but this can cause
undesirable side effects like:
- Showing reduced max percentage in Intel P-State sysfs
- It can cause reduced max performance under certain boundary conditions:
The requested max scaling frequency either via _PPC or via cpufreq-sysfs,
will be converted into a fixed floating point max percent scale. In
majority of the cases this will result in correct max. But not 100% of the
time. If the _PPC is requested at a point where the calculation lead to a
lower max, this can result in a lower P-State then expected and it will
impact performance.
Example of this condition using a Broadwell laptop with config TDP.

Now set the config TDP level 1 ratio as 0x0b (equivalent to 1100000KHz)
in BIOS (not every system will let you adjust this).
The turbo activation ratio will be set to one less than that, which will
be 0x0a (So any request above 1000000KHz should result in turbo region
assuming no thermal limits).
Here _PPC will request max to 1100000KHz (which basically should still
result in turbo as this is more than the turbo activation ratio up to
max allowable turbo frequency), but actual calculation resulted in a max
ceiling P-State which is 0x0a. So under any load condition, this driver
will not request turbo P-States. This will be a huge performance hit.
When config TDP feature is ON, if the _PPC points to a frequency above
turbo activation ratio, the performance can still reach max turbo. In this
case we don't need to treat this as the reduced frequency in set_policy
callback.
In this change when config TDP is active (by checking if the physical max
non turbo ratio is more than the current max non turbo ratio), any request
above current max non turbo is treated as full performance.

Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request.
ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state
in several cases:
- Reduce impact of platform thermal condition
- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to
follow TDP change
- Remote node managers in server want to control platform power
via baseboard management controller (BMC)
This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that
_PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will
result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS
table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo
frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs
to be adjusted.
This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters:

The frequency transition latency from pmin to pmax is observed to be in
few millisecond granurality. And it usually happens to take a performance
penalty during sudden frequency rampup requests.
This patch set solves this problem by using an entity called "global
pstates". The global pstate is a Chip-level entity, so the global entitiy
(Voltage) is managed across the cores. The local pstate is a Core-level
entity, so the local entity (frequency) is managed across threads.
This patch brings down global pstate at a slower rate than the local
pstate. Hence by holding global pstates higher than local pstate makes
the subsequent rampups faster.
A per policy structure is maintained to keep track of the global and
local pstate changes. The global pstate is brought down using a parabolic
equation. The ramp down time to pmin is set to ~5 seconds. To make sure
that the global pstates are dropped at regular interval , a timer is
queued for every 2 seconds during ramp-down phase, which eventually brings
the pstate down to local pstate.
Iozone results show fairly consistent performance boost.
YCSB on redis shows improved Max latencies in most cases.

commit 1b0289848d5d ("cpufreq: powernv: Add sysfs attributes to show
throttle stats") used policy->driver_data as a flag for one-time creation
of throttle sysfs files. Instead of this use 'kernfs_find_and_get()' to
check if the attribute already exists. This is required as
policy->driver_data is used for other purposes in the later patch.
