| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ACPI MADT doesn't allow to offline a CPU after it has been woken up. Currently, CPU hotplug is prevented based on the confidential computing attribute which is set for Intel TDX. But TDX is not the only possible user of the wake up method. Any platform that uses ACPI MADT wakeup method cannot offline CPU. Disable CPU offlining on ACPI MADT wakeup enumeration.

| * cpu/hotplug: Add support for declaring CPU offlining not supportedKirill A. Shutemov2024-06-171-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ACPI MADT mailbox wakeup method doesn't allow to offline a CPU after it has been woken up. Currently, offlining is prevented based on the confidential computing attribute which is set for Intel TDX. But TDX is not the only possible user of the wake up method. The MADT wakeup can be implemented outside of a confidential computing environment. Offline support is a property of the wakeup method, not the CoCo implementation. Introduce cpu_hotplug_disable_offlining() that can be called to indicate that CPU offlining should be disabled. This function is going to replace CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED for ACPI MADT wakeup method.

In freeze_secondary_cpus() the teardown of CPUs happens in the same are invoked in the same order. This is known to make a difference is the current implementation of these callbacks in arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c: - uncore_event_cpu_online() designates the first CPU it is invoked for on each package as the uncore event collector for that package - uncore_event_cpu_offline() if the CPU being offlined is the event collector for its package, transfers that responsibility over to the next (by ascending CPU id) one in the same package With the current order of CPU teardowns in freeze_secondary_cpus(), the latter ends up doing the ownership transfer work on every single CPU. That work involves a synchronize_rcu() call, ultimately unnecessarily degrading the performance of CPU offlining. To address this make freeze_secondary_cpus() iterate through the CPUs in reverse order, so that the teardown happens in order of descending CPU IDs.

| * cgroup/cpuset: Make cpuset hotplug processing synchronousWaiman Long2024-04-081-48/+0

This is to avoid recursive locking of cgroup_mutex. Since then, the cgroup locking scheme has changed quite a bit. A cpuset_mutex was introduced to protect cpuset specific operations. The cpuset_mutex is then replaced by a cpuset_rwsem. With commit d74b27d63a8b ("cgroup/cpuset: Change cpuset_rwsem and hotplug lock order"), cpu_hotplug_lock is acquired before cpuset_rwsem. Later on, cpuset_rwsem is reverted back to cpuset_mutex. All these locking changes allow the hotplug code to call into cpuset core directly. The following commits were also merged due to the asynchronous nature of cpuset hotplug processing. - commit b22afcdf04c9 ("cpu/hotplug: Cure the cpusets trainwreck") - commit 50e76632339d ("sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume bugs") - commit 28b89b9e6f7b ("cpuset: handle race between CPU hotplug and cpuset_hotplug_work") Clean up all these bandages by making cpuset hotplug processing synchronous again with the exception that the call to cgroup_transfer_tasks() to transfer tasks out of an empty cgroup v1 cpuset, if necessary, will still be done via a work function due to the existing cgroup_mutex -> cpu_hotplug_lock dependency. It is possible to reverse that dependency, but that will require updating a number of different cgroup controllers. This special hotplug code path should be rarely taken anyway. As all the cpuset states will be updated by the end of the hotplug operation, we can revert most the above commits except commit 50e76632339d ("sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume bugs") which is partially reverted. Also removing some cpus_read_lock trylock attempts in the cpuset partition code as they are no longer necessary since the cpu_hotplug_lock is now held for the whole duration of the cpuset hotplug code path.

A recent commit to turn mitigations off by default if SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS=n kinda sorta missed that "cpu_mitigations" is completely generic, whereas SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS is x86-specific. Rename x86's SPECULATIVE_MITIGATIONS instead of keeping both and have it select CPU_MITIGATIONS, as having two configs for the same thing is unnecessary and confusing. This will also allow x86 to use the knob to manage mitigations that aren't strictly related to speculative execution. Use another Kconfig to communicate to common code that CPU_MITIGATIONS is already defined instead of having x86's menu depend on the common CPU_MITIGATIONS. This allows keeping a single point of contact for all of x86's mitigations, and it's not clear that other architectures *want* to allow disabling mitigations at compile-time.

The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings: - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly. - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology evaluation. - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely. - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation. - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if that would be possible. - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC enumeration. This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes: - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over. - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes. - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation. - A new registration and admission logic which - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic cannot longer fiddle in it - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration time - provides a sane admission logic - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios. - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before. - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the new interfaces.

This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs. This is wrong in several aspects: 1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by definition as the chance to get the prediction right is close to zero. 2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on a single target CPU 3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead for dubious value especially under the consideration that the vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or rearmed before they expire. The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on which they get armed. This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers and global timers which do not care about where they expire. As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels. When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels: - If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they expire. - If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer. The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e. the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if needed. In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels. The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry. Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level. Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first. This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly more complex idle path. This has been in development for a couple of years and the final series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon vendors and ran through extensive CI. There have been slight performance improvements observed on network centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first time in a mostly idle scenario. There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on the power management side. - Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps: cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the math and logic wrong. - Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of having more incomprehensible command line parameters. - Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures. - The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place" * tag 'timers-core-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (62 commits) timer/migration: Fix quick check reporting late expiry tick/sched: Fix build failure for CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n vdso/datapage: Quick fix - use asm/page-def.h for ARM64 timers: Assert no next dyntick timer look-up while CPU is offline tick: Assume timekeeping is correctly handed over upon last offline idle call tick: Shut down low-res tick from dying CPU tick: Split nohz and highres features from nohz_mode tick: Move individual bit features to debuggable mask accesses tick: Move got_idle_tick away from common flags tick: Assume the tick can't be stopped in NOHZ_MODE_INACTIVE mode tick: Move broadcast cancellation up to CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING tick: Move tick cancellation up to CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING tick: Start centralizing tick related CPU hotplug operations tick/sched: Don't clear ts::next_tick again in can_stop_idle_tick() tick/sched: Rename tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to tick_nohz_full_stop_tick() tick: Use IS_ENABLED() whenever possible tick/sched: Remove useless oneshot ifdeffery tick/nohz: Remove duplicate between lowres and highres handlers tick/nohz: Remove duplicate between tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() and tick_setup_sched_timer() hrtimer: Select housekeeping CPU during migration ...

The reason why these shutdown operations are spread around is not always clear and it makes the tick lifecycle hard to follow. The tick should be shut down in order from highest to lowest level: On stop machine from the dying CPU (high-level): 1) Hand-over the timekeeping duty (tick_handover_do_timer()) 2) Cancel the tick implementation called by the clockevent callback (tick_cancel_sched_timer()) 3) Shutdown broadcasting (tick_offline_cpu() / tick_broadcast_offline()) On stop machine from the dying CPU (low-level): 4) Shutdown clockevents drivers (CPUHP_AP_*_TIMER_STARTING states) From the control CPU after the CPU died (low-level): 5) Shutdown/unregister/cleanup clockevents for the dead CPU (tick_cleanup_dead_cpu()) Instead the current order is 2, 4 (both from CPU hotplug states), then 1 and 3 through direct calls. This layout and order don't make much sense. The operations 1, 2, 3 should be gathered together and in order. Sort this situation with creating a new TICK shut-down CPU hotplug state and start with introducing the timekeeping duty hand-over there. The state must precede hrtimers migration because the tick hrtimer will be stopped from it in a further patch.

Chengming noticed that we use it also in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by reusing the PG_workingset flag. This approach neatly avoids the issues described in 9b1ea29bc0d7 ("Revert "mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab() fails"") as we can now grab a slab from the shared list in a quick and guaranteed way without the cmpxchg_double() operation that amplifies the lock contention and can fail.

We agreed at LSF/MM to wait until the next LTS, which is 6.6, so we should be good to go now. This doesn't yet erase all traces of SLAB outside of mm/ so some dead code, comments or documentation remain, and will be cleaned up gradually (some series are already in the works).

Yu discovered a more involved variant where a task which has a bandwidth timer started on the outgoing CPU holds a lock and then gets throttled. If the lock required by one of the CPU hotplug callbacks the hotplug operation deadlocks because the unthrottling timer event is not handled on the dying CPU and can only be recovered once the control CPU reaches the hotplug state which pulls the pending hrtimers from the dead CPU. Solve this by pushing the hrtimers away from the dying CPU in the dying callbacks. Nothing can queue a hrtimer on the dying CPU at that point because all other CPUs spin in stop_machine() with interrupts disabled and once the operation is finished the CPU is marked offline.

The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB correctly implemented and are not affected. - Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors. It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By chance a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes the hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask is never evaluated. The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core to deny the bringup of the APS. Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be booted or not. - Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or even non-existent. - Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86 Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology evaluation overhaul. - Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32 It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned long or whatever developers decided to use. - Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs. Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die IDs. That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is subject to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online cycle. Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology management is in place. - Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility. * tag 'x86-core-2023-10-29-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) x86/apic, x86/hyperv: Use u32 in hv_snp_boot_ap() too x86/cpu: Provide debug interface x86/cpu/topology: Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical ids x86/apic: Use u32 for wakeup_secondary_cpu[_64]() x86/apic: Use u32 for [gs]et_apic_id() x86/apic: Use u32 for phys_pkg_id() x86/apic: Use u32 for cpu_present_to_apicid() x86/apic: Use u32 for check_apicid_used() x86/apic: Use u32 for APIC IDs in global data x86/apic: Use BAD_APICID consistently x86/cpu: Move cpu_l[l2]c_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move logical package and die IDs into topology info x86/cpu: Remove pointless evaluation of x86_coreid_bits x86/cpu: Move cu_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move cpu_core_id into topology info hwmon: (fam15h_power) Use topology_core_id() scsi: lpfc: Use topology_core_id() x86/cpu: Move cpu_die_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move phys_proc_id into topology info x86/cpu: Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86 ...

The implemented logic relies on the primary thread mask to be set up properly. This turns out to be an issue with XEN/PV guests because their CPU hotplug mechanics do not enumerate APICs and therefore the mask is never correctly populated. This went unnoticed so far because by chance XEN/PV ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2. So smt_hotplug_control stays at its default value CPU_SMT_ENABLED and the primary thread mask is never evaluated in the context of CPU hotplug. This stopped "working" with the upcoming overhaul of the topology evaluation which legitimately provides a fake topology for XEN/PV. That sets smp_num_siblings to 1, which causes the core CPU hot-plug core to refuse to bring up the APs. This happens because smt_hotplug_control is set to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED which causes cpu_smt_allowed() to evaluate the unpopulated primary thread mask with the conclusion that all non-boot CPUs are not valid to be plugged. Make cpu_smt_allowed() more robust and take CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED and CPU_SMT_NOT_IMPLEMENTED into account. Rename it to cpu_bootable() while at it as that makes it more clear what the function is about. The primary mask issue on x86 XEN/PV needs to be addressed separately as there are users outside of the CPU hotplug code too.

'period_timer' expires and is re-enqueued on CPU1 ... take_cpu_down() CPU1 shuts down and does not handle timers anymore. They have to be migrated in the post dead hotplug steps by the control task. T1 runs the post dead offline operation T1 is scheduled out T1 waits for 'period_timer' to expire T1 waits there forever if it is scheduled out before it can execute the hrtimer offline callback hrtimers_dead_cpu(). Cure this by delegating the hotplug control operation to a worker thread on an online CPU.

The current interface accepts "on" and "off", to enable either 1 or all SMT threads per core. This commit allows writing an integer, between 1 and the number of SMT threads supported by the machine. Writing 1 is a synonym for "off", 2 or more enables SMT with the specified number of threads. When reading the file, if all threads are online "on" is returned, to avoid changing behaviour for existing users. If some other number of threads is online then the integer value is returned. Architectures like x86 only supporting 1 thread or all threads, should not define CONFIG_SMT_NUM_THREADS_DYNAMIC. Architecture supporting partial SMT states, like PowerPC, should define it.

Since this is only applicable to architecture supporting partial SMT, only these architectures should select the new configuration variable CONFIG_SMT_NUM_THREADS_DYNAMIC. For the other architectures, not supporting the partial SMT states, there is no need to define topology_cpu_smt_allowed(), the generic code assumed that all the threads are allowed or only the primary ones. Call the helper from cpu_smt_enable(), and cpu_smt_allowed() when SMT is enabled, to check if the particular thread should be onlined. Notably, also call it from cpu_smt_disable() if CPU_SMT_ENABLED, to allow offlining some threads to move from a higher to lower number of threads online.

* cpu/hotplug: Allow "parallel" bringup up to CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP_STATEThomas Gleixner2023-05-151-5/+98
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is often significant latency in the early stages of CPU bringup, and time is wasted by waking each CPU (e.g. with SIPI/INIT/INIT on x86) and then waiting for it to respond before moving on to the next. Allow a platform to enable parallel setup which brings all to be onlined CPUs up to the CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP state. While this state advancement on the control CPU (BP) is single-threaded the important part is the last state CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP which wakes the to be onlined CPUs up. This allows the CPUs to run up to the first sychronization point cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() where they wait for the control CPU to release them one by one for the full onlining procedure. This parallelism depends on the CPU hotplug core sync mechanism which ensures that the parallel brought up CPUs wait for release before touching any state which would make the CPU visible to anything outside the hotplug control mechanism. To handle the SMT constraints of X86 correctly the bringup happens in two iterations when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT is enabled. The control CPU brings up the primary SMT threads of each core first, which can load the microcode without the need to rendevouz with the thread siblings. Once that's completed it brings up the secondary SMT threads.

* cpu/hotplug: Provide a split up CPUHP_BRINGUP mechanismThomas Gleixner2023-05-151-2/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bring up logic of a to be onlined CPU consists of several parts, which are considered to be a single hotplug state: 1) Control CPU issues the wake-up 2) To be onlined CPU starts up, does the minimal initialization, reports to be alive and waits for release into the complete bring-up. 3) Control CPU waits for the alive report and releases the upcoming CPU for the complete bring-up. Allow to split this into two states: 1) Control CPU issues the wake-up After that the to be onlined CPU starts up, does the minimal initialization, reports to be alive and waits for release into the full bring-up. As this can run after the control CPU dropped the hotplug locks the code which is executed on the AP before it reports alive has to be carefully audited to not violate any of the hotplug constraints, especially not modifying any of the various cpumasks. This is really only meant to avoid waiting for the AP to react on the wake-up. Of course an architecture can move strict CPU related setup functionality, e.g. microcode loading, with care before the synchronization point to save further pointless waiting time. 2) Control CPU waits for the alive report and releases the upcoming CPU for the complete bring-up. This allows that the two states can be split up to run all to be onlined CPUs up to state #1 on the control CPU and then at a later point run state #2. This spares some of the latencies of the full serialized per CPU bringup by avoiding the per CPU wakeup/wait serialization. The assumption is that the first AP already waits when the last AP has been woken up. This obvioulsy depends on the hardware latencies and depending on the timings this might still not completely eliminate all wait scenarios. This split is just a preparatory step for enabling the parallel bringup later. The boot time bringup is still fully serialized. It has a separate config switch so that architectures which want to support parallel bringup can test the split of the CPUHP_BRINGUG step separately. To enable this the architecture must support the CPU hotplug core sync mechanism and has to be audited that there are no implicit hotplug state dependencies which require a fully serialized bringup.

Move the SCS/KASAN cleanup to the generic _cpu_up() function instead, which already ensures that the new CPU's stack is available, purely to allow for early failure. This occurs when the CPU to be brought up is in the CPUHP_OFFLINE state, which should correctly do the cleanup any time the CPU has been taken down to the point where such is needed.
