2010-02-27x86: Enable NMI on all cpus on UVRuss Anderson3-0/+48
Enable NMI on all cpus in UV system and add an NMI handler to dump_stack on each cpu. By default on x86 all the cpus except the boot cpu have NMI masked off. This patch enables NMI on all cpus in UV system and adds an NMI handler to dump_stack on each cpu. This way if a system hangs we can NMI the machine and get a backtrace from all the cpus. Version 2: Use x86_platform driver mechanism for nmi init, per Ingo's suggestion. Version 3: Clean up Ingo's nits.

2010-02-26perf_events, x86: AMD event schedulingStephane Eranian1-3/+262
This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling. NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to those counters needs to be synchronized. We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint structure.

2010-02-26perf_events: Add new start/stop PMU callbacksStephane Eranian1-4/+20
In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due to competion between cores. This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed until perf_enable()).

2010-02-25ftrace: Remove memory barriers from NMI code when not neededSteven Rostedt1-0/+26
The code in stop_machine that modifies the kernel text has a bit of logic to handle the case of NMIs. stop_machine does not prevent NMIs from executing, and if an NMI were to trigger on another CPU as the modifying CPU is changing the NMI text, a GPF could result. To prevent the GPF, the NMI calls ftrace_nmi_enter() which may modify the code first, then any other NMIs will just change the text to the same content which will do no harm. The code that stop_machine called must wait for NMIs to finish while it changes each location in the kernel. That code may also change the text to what the NMI changed it to. The key is that the text will never change content while another CPU is executing it. To make the above work, the call to ftrace_nmi_enter() must also do a smp_mb() as well as atomic_inc(). But for applications like perf that require a high number of NMIs for profiling, this can have a dramatic effect on the system. Not only is it doing a full memory barrier on both nmi_enter() as well as nmi_exit() it is also modifying a global variable with an atomic operation. This kills performance on large SMP machines. Since the memory barriers are only needed when ftrace is in the process of modifying the text (which is seldom), this patch adds a "modifying_code" variable that gets set before stop machine is executed and cleared afterwards. The NMIs will check this variable and store it in a per CPU "save_modifying_code" variable that it will use to check if it needs to do the memory barriers and atomic dec on NMI exit.

2010-02-19hw-breakpoint: Keep track of dr7 local enable bitsFrederic Weisbecker1-2/+5
When the user enables breakpoints through dr7, he can choose between "local" or "global" enable bits but given how linux is implemented, both have the same effect. That said we don't keep track how the user enabled the breakpoints so when the user requests the dr7 value, we only translate the "enabled" status using the global enabled bits. It means that if the user enabled a breakpoint using the local enabled bit, reading back dr7 will set the global bit and clear the local one. Apps like Wine expect a full dr7 POKEUSER/PEEKUSER match for emulated softwares that implement old reverse engineering protection schemes. We fix that by keeping track of the whole dr7 value given by the user in the thread structure to drop this bug. We'll think about something more proper later.

Before we had a generic breakpoint API, ptrace was accepting breakpoints on NULL address in x86. The new API refuse them, without given strong reasons. We need to follow the previous behaviour as some userspace apps like Wine need such NULL breakpoints to ensure old emulated software protections are still working.

2010-02-11x86, ptrace: regset extensions to support xstateSuresh Siddha3-2/+116
Add the xstate regset support which helps extend the kernel ptrace and the core-dump interfaces to support AVX state etc. This regset interface is designed to support all the future state that gets supported using xsave/xrstor infrastructure. Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or the state is not saved in the memory layout. And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented in the memory layout. First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0). The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

2010-02-09x86, apic: Don't use logical-flat mode when CPU hotplug may exceed 8 CPUsSuresh Siddha6-34/+28
We need to fall back from logical-flat APIC mode to physical-flat mode when we have more than 8 CPUs. However, in the presence of CPU hotplug(with bios listing not enabled but possible cpus as disabled cpus in MADT), we have to consider the number of possible CPUs rather than the number of current CPUs; otherwise we may cross the 8-CPU boundary when CPUs are added later. 32bit apic code can use more cleanups (like the removal of vendor checks in 32bit default_setup_apic_routing()) and more unifications with 64bit code. Yinghai has some patches in works already. This patch addresses the boot issue that is reported in the virtualization guest context.
