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 allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time. - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID segment bitmaps. This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF. The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission logic further" * tag 'x86-apic-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (76 commits) x86/topology: Ignore non-present APIC IDs in a present package x86/apic: Build the x86 topology enumeration functions on UP APIC builds too smp: Provide 'setup_max_cpus' definition on UP too smp: Avoid 'setup_max_cpus' namespace collision/shadowing x86/bugs: Use fixed addressing for VERW operand x86/cpu/topology: Get rid of cpuinfo::x86_max_cores x86/cpu/topology: Provide __num_[cores|threads]_per_package x86/cpu/topology: Rename topology_max_die_per_package() x86/cpu/topology: Rename smp_num_siblings x86/cpu/topology: Retrieve cores per package from topology bitmaps x86/cpu/topology: Use topology logical mapping mechanism x86/cpu/topology: Provide logical pkg/die mapping x86/cpu/topology: Simplify cpu_mark_primary_thread() x86/cpu/topology: Mop up primary thread mask handling x86/cpu/topology: Use topology bitmaps for sizing x86/cpu/topology: Let XEN/PV use topology from CPUID/MADT x86/xen/smp_pv: Count number of vCPUs early x86/cpu/topology: Assign hotpluggable CPUIDs during init x86/cpu/topology: Reject unknown APIC IDs on ACPI hotplug x86/topology: Add a mechanism to track topology via APIC IDs ...

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 ...

CPU 0 has a timer (T0), CPU 1 has a timer (T1) and CPU 2 has a timer (T2). The expire order is T0 < T1 < T2. [GRP1:0] migrator = GRP0:0 active = GRP0:0 nextevt = T0:0(i), T0:1 / \ [GRP0:0] [GRP0:1] migrator = CPU0 migrator = NONE active = CPU0 active = NONE nextevt = T0(i), T1 nextevt = T2 / \ / \ 0 1 2 3 active idle idle idle 1) CPU 0 becomes active. The (i) means a now ignored timer. [GRP1:0] migrator = GRP0:0 active = GRP0:0 nextevt = T0:1 / \ [GRP0:0] [GRP0:1] migrator = CPU0 migrator = NONE active = CPU0 active = NONE nextevt = T1 nextevt = T2 / \ / \ 0 1 2 3 active idle idle idle 2) CPU 0 handles remote. No timer actually expired but ignored timers have been cleaned out and their sibling's timers haven't been propagated. As a result the top level's next event is T2 and not T1. 3) CPU 0 tries to enter idle without any global timer enqueued and calls tmigr_quick_check(). The expiry of T2 is returned instead of the expiry of T1. When the quick check returns an expiry that is too late, the cpuidle governor may pick up a C-state that is too deep. This may be result into undesired CPU wake up latency if the next timer is actually close enough. Fix this with assuming that expiries aren't sorted top-down while performing the quick check.

But if the CPU is offline, the tick has been cancelled and there is consequently no need to further stop the tick. 2) Remote expiry: when a CPU remotely expires global timers on behalf of another CPU, the latter target's next timer is re-evaluated afterwards. However remote expîry doesn't happen on offline CPUs. 3) IRQ exit: on nohz_full mode, the tick is (re-)evaluated on IRQ exit. But full dynticks is disabled on offline CPUs. Therefore it is safe to assume that no next dyntick timer lookup can be performed on offline CPUs. Assert this expectation to report any surprise.

Therefore it's guaranteed that the current CPU isn't the timekeeper upon its last call to idle. Besides, calling tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() while the dying CPU goes into idle suggests that the tick is going to be stopped while it is actually stopped already from the appropriate CPU hotplug state. Remove the confusing call and the obsolete case handling and convert it to a sanity check that verifies the above assumption.

| * | | tick: Shut down low-res tick from dying CPUFrederic Weisbecker2024-02-263-10/+29

This works well if CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n or the tick is in high-res mode. However in low-res dynticks mode, the tick isn't cancelled until the clockevent is shut down, which can happen later. The tick may therefore fire again once IRQs are re-enabled on stop machine and until IRQs are disabled for good upon the last call to idle. That's so many opportunities for a timekeeper to go idle and the outgoing CPU to take over that duty. This is why tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() is called one last time on idle if the CPU is seen offline: so that the timekeeping duty is handed over again in case the CPU has re-taken the duty. This means there are two timekeeping handovers on CPU down hotplug with different undocumented constraints and purposes: 1) A handover on stop machine for !dynticks || highres. All online CPUs are guaranteed to be non-idle and the timekeeping duty can be safely handed-over. The hrtimer tick is cancelled so it is guaranteed that in dynticks mode the outgoing CPU won't take again the duty. 2) A handover on last idle call for dynticks && lowres. Setting the duty to TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE makes sure that a CPU will take over the timekeeping. Prepare for consolidating the handover to a single place (the first one) with shutting down the low-res tick as well from tick_cancel_sched_timer() as well. This will simplify the handover and unify the tick cancellation between high-res and low-res.

Move instead the nohz mode field information into the tick flags and provide two new bits: one to know if the tick is in nohz mode and another one to know if the tick is in high resolution.

This function modifies the struct tick_sched's bitfield "got_idle_tick". However this bitfield is stored within the same mask as other bitfields that can be modified from interrupts. Fortunately so far it looks like the only race that can happen is while writing ->got_idle_tick to 0, an interrupt fires and writes the ->idle_active field to 0. It's then possible that the interrupted write to ->got_idle_tick writes back the old value of ->idle_active back to 1. However if that happens, the worst possible outcome is that the time spent between that interrupt and the upcoming call to tick_nohz_idle_exit() is accounted as idle, which is negligible quantity. Still all the bitfield writes within this struct tick_sched's shadow mask should be IRQ-safe. Therefore move this bitfield out to its own storage to avoid further suprises.

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.

So placing the timers at enqueue wastes precious cycles. The proper solution to this problem is to always queue the timers on the local CPU and allow the non pinned timers to be pulled onto a busy CPU at expiry time. Therefore split the timer storage into local pinned and global timers: Local pinned timers are always expired on the CPU on which they have been queued. Global timers can be expired on any CPU. As long as a CPU is busy it expires both local and global timers. When a CPU goes idle it arms for the first expiring local timer. If the first expiring pinned (local) timer is before the first expiring movable timer, then no action is required because the CPU will wake up before the first movable timer expires. If the first expiring movable timer is before the first expiring pinned (local) timer, then this timer is queued into an idle timerqueue and eventually expired by another active CPU. To avoid global locking the timerqueues are implemented as a hierarchy. The lowest level of the hierarchy holds the CPUs. The CPUs are associated to groups of 8, which are separated per node. If more than one CPU group exist, then a second level in the hierarchy collects the groups. Depending on the size of the system more than 2 levels are required. Each group has a "migrator" which checks the timerqueue during the tick for remote expirable timers. If the last CPU in a group goes idle it reports the first expiring event in the group up to the next group(s) in the hierarchy. If the last CPU goes idle it arms its timer for the first system wide expiring timer to ensure that no timer event is missed.

| * | | timers: Move marking timer bases idle into tick_nohz_stop_tick()Anna-Maria Behnsen2024-02-223-30/+71
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The timer base is marked idle when get_next_timer_interrupt() is executed. But the decision whether the tick will be stopped and whether the system is able to go idle is done later. When the timer bases is marked idle and a new first timer is enqueued remote an IPI is raised. Even if it is not required because the tick is not stopped and the timer base is evaluated again at the next tick. To prevent this, the timer base is marked idle in tick_nohz_stop_tick() and get_next_timer_interrupt() is streamlined by only looking for the next timer interrupt. All other work is postponed to timer_base_try_to_set_idle() which is called by tick_nohz_stop_tick(). timer_base_try_to_set_idle() never resets timer_base::is_idle state. This is done when the tick is restarted via tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(). With this, tick_sched::tick_stopped and timer_base::is_idle are always in sync. So there is no longer the need to execute timer_clear_idle() in tick_nohz_idle_retain_tick(). This was required before, as tick_nohz_next_event() set timer_base::is_idle even if the tick would not be stopped. So timer_clear_idle() is only executed, when timer base is idle. So the check whether timer base is idle, is now no longer required as well. While at it fix some nearby whitespace damage as well.

Use 'tsc=unstable'. sched_clock: Marking unstable (119294969739, 159204297)<-(125446229205, -5992055152) clocksource: Checking clocksource tsc synchronization from CPU 319 to CPUs 0,99,136,180,210,542,601,896. clocksource: Switched to clocksource hpet The reason is that for platform with a large number of CPUs, there are sporadic big or huge read latencies while reading the watchog/clocksource during boot or when system is under stress work load, and the frequency and maximum value of the latency goes up with the number of online CPUs. The cCurrent code already has logic to detect and filter such high latency case by reading the watchdog twice and checking the two deltas. Due to the randomness of the latency, there is a low probabilty that the first delta (latency) is big, but the second delta is small and looks valid. The watchdog code retries the readouts by default twice, which is not necessarily sufficient for systems with a large number of CPUs. There is a command line parameter 'max_cswd_read_retries' which allows to increase the number of retries, but that's not user friendly as it needs to be tweaked per system. As the number of required retries is proportional to the number of online CPUs, this parameter can be calculated at runtime. Scale and enlarge the number of retries according to the number of online CPUs and remove the command line parameter completely.

| * | | timekeeping: Fix cross-timestamp interpolation for non-x86Peter Hilber2024-02-191-4/+2

But when interpolating system time (do_interp == true), system_counterval.cycles is before tkr_mono.cycle_last, contrary to the timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() expectations. On x86, CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_VALIDATE_LAST_CYCLE will mitigate on interpolating, setting delta to 0. With delta == 0, xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime are then set to the last update time, as implicitly expected by adjust_historical_crosststamp(). On other architectures, the resulting nonsense xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime corrupt the xtstamp (ts) adjustment in adjust_historical_crosststamp(). Fix this by deriving xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime from the last update time when interpolating, by using the local variable "cycles". The local variable already has the right value when interpolating, unlike system_counterval.cycles.

| * | | timekeeping: Fix cross-timestamp interpolation corner case decisionPeter Hilber2024-02-191-8/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cycle_between() helper checks if parameter test is in the open interval (before, after). Colloquially speaking, this also applies to the counter wrap-around special case before > after. get_device_system_crosststamp() currently uses cycle_between() at the first call site to decide whether to interpolate for older counter readings. get_device_system_crosststamp() has the following problem with cycle_between() testing against an open interval: Assume that, by chance, cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last (in the following, "cycle_last" for brevity). Then, cycle_between() at the first call site, with effective argument values cycle_between(cycle_last, cycles, now), returns false, enabling interpolation. During interpolation, get_device_system_crosststamp() will then call cycle_between() at the second call site (if a history_begin was supplied). The effective argument values are cycle_between(history_begin->cycles, cycles, cycles), since system_counterval.cycles == interval_start == cycles, per the assumption. Due to the test against the open interval, cycle_between() returns false again. This causes get_device_system_crosststamp() to return -EINVAL. This failure should be avoided, since get_device_system_crosststamp() works both when cycles follows cycle_last (no interpolation), and when cycles precedes cycle_last (interpolation). For the case cycles == cycle_last, interpolation is actually unneeded. Fix this by changing cycle_between() into timestamp_in_interval(), which now checks against the closed interval, rather than the open interval. This changes the get_device_system_crosststamp() behavior for three corner cases: 1. Bypass interpolation in the case cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last, fixing the problem described above. 2. At the first timestamp_in_interval() call site, cycles == now no longer causes failure. 3. At the second timestamp_in_interval() call site, history_begin->cycles == system_counterval.cycles no longer causes failure. adjust_historical_crosststamp() also works for this corner case, where partial_history_cycles == total_history_cycles. These behavioral changes should not cause any problems.
