[ Upstream commit 4e949e9b9d1e3edcdab3b54656c5851bd9e49c67 ]

The SMM freeze feature was introduced since PerfMon V2. But the current
code unconditionally enables the feature for all platforms. It can
generate #GP exception, if the related FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit is set for
the machine with PerfMon V1.

To disable the feature for PerfMon V1, perf needs to
- Remove the freeze_on_smi sysfs entry by moving intel_pmu_attrs to
  intel_pmu, which is only applied to PerfMon V2 and later.
- Check the PerfMon version before flipping the SMM bit when starting CPU

<title>perf/x86/intel: Fix event update for auto-reload</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5aedcd7097e3f99ce37b734ec97ef06ab85fc122</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit d31fc13fdcb20e1c317f9a7dd6273c18fbd58308 ]

There is a bug when reading event-&gt;count with large PEBS enabled.

Here is an example:

  # ./read_count
  0x71f0
  0x122c0
  0x1000000001c54
  0x100000001257d
  0x200000000bdc5

In fixed period mode, the auto-reload mechanism could be enabled for
PEBS events, but the calculation of event-&gt;count does not take the
auto-reload values into account.

Anyone who reads event-&gt;count will get the wrong result, e.g x86_pmu_read().

This bug was introduced with the auto-reload mechanism enabled since
commit:

  851559e35fd5 ("perf/x86/intel: Use the PEBS auto reload mechanism when possible")

Introduce intel_pmu_save_and_restart_reload() to calculate the
event-&gt;count only for auto-reload.

Since the counter increments a negative counter value and overflows on
the sign switch, giving the interval:

        [-period, 0]

the difference between two consequtive reads is:

 A) value2 - value1;
    when no overflows have happened in between,
 B) (0 - value1) + (value2 - (-period));
    when one overflow happened in between,
 C) (0 - value1) + (n - 1) * (period) + (value2 - (-period));
    when @n overflows happened in between.

Here A) is the obvious difference, B) is the extension to the discrete
interval, where the first term is to the top of the interval and the
second term is from the bottom of the next interval and C) the extension
to multiple intervals, where the middle term is the whole intervals
covered.

The equation for all cases is:

    value2 - value1 + n * period

Previously the event-&gt;count is updated right before the sample output.
But for case A, there is no PEBS record ready. It needs to be specially
handled.

Remove the auto-reload code from x86_perf_event_set_period() since
we'll not longer call that function in this case.

<title>perf/x86/intel: Fix large period handling on Broadwell CPUs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:40f613ea9097652ed1b49e78dd3e79f10c74a7e9</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f605cfca8c39ffa2b98c06d2b9f30ba64f1e54e3 ]

Large fixed period values could be truncated on Broadwell, for example:

  perf record -e cycles -c 10000000000

Here the fixed period is 0x2540BE400, but the period which finally applied is
0x540BE400 - which is wrong.

The reason is that x86_pmu::limit_period() uses an u32 parameter, so the
high 32 bits of 'period' get truncated.

This bug was introduced in:

  commit 294fe0f52a44 ("perf/x86/intel: Add INST_RETIRED.ALL workarounds")

It's safe to use u64 instead of u32:

 - Although the 'left' is s64, the value of 'left' must be positive when
   calling limit_period().

 - bdw_limit_period() only modifies the lowest 6 bits, it doesn't touch
   the higher 32 bits.

[ Upstream commit 82d71ed0277efc45360828af8c4e4d40e1b45352 ]

The PMU is disabled in intel_pmu_handle_irq(), but cpuc-&gt;enabled is not updated
accordingly.

This is fine in current usage because no-one checks it - but fix it
for future code: for example, the drain_pebs() will be modified to
fix an auto-reload bug.

Properly save/restore the old PMU state.

<title>perf/x86/intel: Fix linear IP of PEBS real_ip on Haswell and later CPUs</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=71eb9ee9596d8df3d5723c3cfc18774c6235e8b1'/>
<id>urn:sha1:71eb9ee9596d8df3d5723c3cfc18774c6235e8b1</id>
<content type='text'>
this patch fix a bug in how the pebs-&gt;real_ip is handled in the PEBS
handler. real_ip only exists in Haswell and later processor. It is
actually the eventing IP, i.e., where the event occurred. As opposed
to the pebs-&gt;ip which is the PEBS interrupt IP which is always off
by one.

The problem is that the real_ip just like the IP needs to be fixed up
because PEBS does not record all the machine state registers, and
in particular the code segement (cs). This is why we have the set_linear_ip()
function. The problem was that set_linear_ip() was only used on the pebs-&gt;ip
and not the pebs-&gt;real_ip.

We have profiles which ran into invalid callstacks because of this.
Here is an example:

 .....  0: ffffffffffffff80 recent entry, marker kernel v
 .....  1: 000000000040044d &lt;= user address in kernel space!
 .....  2: fffffffffffffe00 marker enter user v
 .....  3: 000000000040044d
 .....  4: 00000000004004b6 oldest entry

Debugging output in get_perf_callchain():

 [  857.769909] CALLCHAIN: CPU8 ip=40044d regs-&gt;cs=10 user_mode(regs)=0

The problem is that the kernel entry in 1: points to a user level
address. How can that be?

The reason is that with PEBS sampling the instruction that caused the event
to occur and the instruction where the CPU was when the interrupt was posted
may be far apart. And sometime during that time window, the privilege level may
change. This happens, for instance, when the PEBS sample is taken close to a
kernel entry point. Here PEBS, eventing IP (real_ip) captured a user level
instruction. But by the time the PMU interrupt fired, the processor had already
entered kernel space. This is why the debug output shows a user address with
user_mode() false.

The problem comes from PEBS not recording the code segment (cs) register.
The register is used in x86_64 to determine if executing in kernel vs user
space. This is okay because the kernel has a software workaround called
set_linear_ip(). But the issue in setup_pebs_sample_data() is that
set_linear_ip() is never called on the real_ip value when it is available
(Haswell and later) and precise_ip &gt; 1.

This patch fixes this problem and eliminates the callchain discrepancy.

The patch restructures the code around set_linear_ip() to minimize the number
of times the IP has to be set.

The number of CHAs is miscalculated on multi-domain PCI Skylake server systems,
resulting in an uncore driver initialization error.

Gary Kroening explains:

 "For systems with a single PCI segment, it is sufficient to look for the
  bus number to change in order to determine that all of the CHa's have
  been counted for a single socket.

  However, for multi PCI segment systems, each socket is given a new
  segment and the bus number does NOT change.  So looking only for the
  bus number to change ends up counting all of the CHa's on all sockets
  in the system.  This leads to writing CPU MSRs beyond a valid range and
  causes an error in ivbep_uncore_msr_init_box()."

To fix this bug, query the number of CHAs from the CAPID6 register:
it should read bits 27:0 in the CAPID6 register located at
Device 30, Function 3, Offset 0x9C. These 28 bits form a bit vector
of available LLC slices and the CHAs that manage those slices.
