This change provides a mechanism to reduce the number of MMIO doorbell
writes for the NVMe driver. When running in a virtualized environment
like QEMU, the cost of an MMIO is quite hefy here. The main idea for
the patch is provide the device two memory location locations:
1) to store the doorbell values so they can be lookup without the doorbell
MMIO write
2) to store an event index.
I believe the doorbell value is obvious, the event index not so much.
Similar to the virtio specification, the virtual device can tell the
driver (guest OS) not to write MMIO unless you are writing past this
value.
FYI: doorbell values are written by the nvme driver (guest OS) and the
event index is written by the virtual device (host OS).
The patch implements a new admin command that will communicate where
these two memory locations reside. If the command fails, the nvme
driver will work as before without any optimizations.

Just to give an idea on the performance boost with the vendor
extension: Running fio [1], a stock NVMe driver I get about 200K read
IOPs with my vendor patch I get about 1000K read IOPs. This was
running with a null device i.e. the backing device simply returned
success on every read IO request.
[1] Running on a 4 core machine:

Currently, a call to schedule() acts as a Tasks RCU quiescent state
only if a context switch actually takes place. However, just the
call to schedule() guarantees that the calling task has moved off of
whatever tracing trampoline that it might have been one previously.
This commit therefore plumbs schedule()'s "preempt" parameter into
rcu_note_context_switch(), which then records the Tasks RCU quiescent
state, but only if this call to schedule() was -not- due to a preemption.
To avoid adding overhead to the common-case context-switch path,
this commit hides the rcu_note_context_switch() check under an existing
non-common-case check.

Although Tree SRCU does reduce delays when there is at least one
synchronize_srcu_expedited() invocation pending, srcu_schedule_cbs_snp()
still waits for SRCU_INTERVAL before invoking callbacks. Since
synchronize_srcu_expedited() now posts a callback and waits for
that callback to do a wakeup, this destroys the expedited nature of
synchronize_srcu_expedited(). This destruction became apparent to
Marc Zyngier in the guise of a guest-OS bootup slowdown from five
seconds to no fewer than forty seconds.
This commit therefore invokes callbacks immediately at the end of the
grace period when there is at least one synchronize_srcu_expedited()
invocation pending. This brought Marc's guest-OS bootup times back
into the realm of reason.

Peter Zijlstra proposed using SRCU to reduce mmap_sem contention [1,2],
however, there are workloads that could result in a high volume of
concurrent invocations of call_srcu(), which with current SRCU would
result in excessive lock contention on the srcu_struct structure's
->queue_lock, which protects SRCU's callback lists. This commit therefore
moves SRCU to per-CPU callback lists, thus greatly reducing contention.
Because a given SRCU instance no longer has a single centralized callback
list, starting grace periods and invoking callbacks are both more complex
than in the single-list Classic SRCU implementation. Starting grace
periods and handling callbacks are now handled using an srcu_node tree
that is in some ways similar to the rcu_node trees used by RCU-bh,
RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched (for example, the srcu_node tree shape is
controlled by exactly the same Kconfig options and boot parameters that
control the shape of the rcu_node tree).
In addition, the old per-CPU srcu_array structure is now named srcu_data
and contains an rcu_segcblist structure named ->srcu_cblist for its
callbacks (and a spinlock to protect this). The srcu_struct gets
an srcu_gp_seq that is used to associate callback segments with the
corresponding completion-time grace-period number. These completion-time
grace-period numbers are propagated up the srcu_node tree so that the
grace-period workqueue handler can determine whether additional grace
periods are needed on the one hand and where to look for callbacks that
are ready to be invoked.
The srcu_barrier() function must now wait on all instances of the per-CPU
->srcu_cblist. Because each ->srcu_cblist is protected by ->lock,
srcu_barrier() can remotely add the needed callbacks. In theory,
it could also remotely start grace periods, but in practice doing so
is complex and racy. And interestingly enough, it is never necessary
for srcu_barrier() to start a grace period because srcu_barrier() only
enqueues a callback when a callback is already present--and it turns out
that a grace period has to have already been started for this pre-existing
callback. Furthermore, it is only the callback that srcu_barrier()
needs to wait on, not any particular grace period. Therefore, a new
rcu_segcblist_entrain() function enqueues the srcu_barrier() function's
callback into the same segment occupied by the last pre-existing callback
in the list. The special case where all the pre-existing callbacks are
on a different list (because they are in the process of being invoked)
is handled by enqueuing srcu_barrier()'s callback into the RCU_DONE_TAIL
segment, relying on the done-callbacks check that takes place after all
callbacks are inovked.
Note that the readers use the same algorithm as before. Note that there
is a separate srcu_idx that tells the readers what counter to increment.
This unfortunately cannot be combined with srcu_gp_seq because they
need to be incremented at different times.
This commit introduces some ugly #ifdefs in rcutorture. These will go
away when I feel good enough about Tree SRCU to ditch Classic SRCU.
Some crude performance comparisons, courtesy of a quickly hacked rcuperf
asynchronous-grace-period capability:
Callback Queuing Overhead
-------------------------
# CPUS Classic SRCU Tree SRCU
------ ------------ ---------
2 0.349 us 0.342 us
16 31.66 us 0.4 us
41 --------- 0.417 us
The times are the 90th percentiles, a statistic that was chosen to reject
the overheads of the occasional srcu_barrier() call needed to avoid OOMing
the test machine. The rcuperf test hangs when running Classic SRCU at 41
CPUs, hence the line of dashes. Despite the hacks to both the rcuperf code
and that statistics, this is a convincing demonstration of Tree SRCU's
performance and scalability advantages.

[ paulmck: Fix initialization if synchronize_srcu_expedited() called first. ]
Add powerpc support for mmap_rnd_bits and mmap_rnd_compat_bits, which are two
sysctls that allow a user to configure the number of bits of randomness used for
ASLR.
Because of the way the Kconfig for ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS is defined, we have to
construct at least the MIN value in Kconfig, vs in a header which would be more
natural. Given that we just go ahead and do it all in Kconfig.
At least according to the code (the documentation makes no mention of it), the
value is defined as the number of bits of randomisation *of the page*, not the
address. This makes some sense, with larger page sizes more of the low bits are
forced to zero, which would reduce the randomisation if we didn't take the
PAGE_SIZE into account. However it does mean the min/max values have to change
depending on the PAGE_SIZE in order to actually limit the amount of address
space consumed by the randomisation.
The result of that is that we have to define the default values based on both
32-bit vs 64-bit, but also the configured PAGE_SIZE. Furthermore now that we
have 128TB address space support on Book3S, we also have to take that into
account.
Finally we can wire up the value in arch_mmap_rnd().

In crct10dif_vpmsum() we call enable_kernel_altivec() without first

also disabled preemption. But the two were decoupled in commit 8222dbe21e
("sched/preempt, mm/fault: Decouple preemption from the page fault
logic") in mid 2015.
The crct10dif-vpmsum code inherited this bug from the crc32c-vpmsum code
on which it was modelled.
So add the missing preempt_disable/enable(). We should also call
disable_kernel_fp(), although it does nothing by default, there is a
debug switch to make it active and all enables should be paired with
disables.

Replace existing hw_ranndom/exynos-rng driver with a new, reworked one.
This is a driver for pseudo random number generator block which on
Exynos4 chipsets must be seeded with some value. On newer Exynos5420
chipsets it might seed itself from true random number generator block
but this is not implemented yet.
New driver is a complete rework to use the crypto ALGAPI instead of
hw_random API. Rationale for the change:
1. hw_random interface is for true RNG devices.
2. The old driver was seeding itself with jiffies which is not a
reliable source for randomness.
3. Device generates five random 32-bit numbers in each pass but old
driver was returning only one 32-bit number thus its performance was
reduced.
Compatibility with DeviceTree bindings is preserved.
New driver does not use runtime power management but manually enables
and disables the clock when needed. This is preferred approach because
using runtime PM just to toggle clock is huge overhead.
Another difference is reseeding itself with generated random data
periodically and during resuming from system suspend (previously driver
was re-seeding itself again with jiffies).

The disablement of interrupts at KVM_SET_CLOCK/KVM_GET_CLOCK
attempts to disable software suspend from causing "non atomic behaviour" of
the operation:
Add a helper function to compute the kernel time and convert nanoseconds
back to CPU specific cycles. Note that these must not be called in preemptible
context, as that would mean the kernel could enter software suspend state,
which would cause non-atomic operation.
However, assume the kernel can enter software suspend at the following 2 points:
ktime_get_ts(&ts);
1.
hypothetical_ktime_get_ts(&ts)
monotonic_to_bootbased(&ts);
2.
monotonic_to_bootbased() should be correct relative to a ktime_get_ts(&ts)
performed after point 1 (that is after resuming from software suspend),
hypothetical_ktime_get_ts()
Therefore it is also correct for the ktime_get_ts(&ts) before point 1,
which is
ktime_get_ts(&ts) = hypothetical_ktime_get_ts(&ts) + time-to-execute-suspend-code
Note CLOCK_MONOTONIC does not count during suspension.

Guests that are heavy on futexes end up IPI'ing each other a lot. That
can lead to significant slowdowns and latency increase for those guests
when running within KVM.
If only a single guest is needed on a host, we have a lot of spare host
CPU time we can throw at the problem. Modern CPUs implement a feature
called "MWAIT" which allows guests to wake up sleeping remote CPUs without
an IPI - thus without an exit - at the expense of never going out of guest
context.
The decision whether this is something sensible to use should be up to the
VM admin, so to user space. We can however allow MWAIT execution on systems
that support it properly hardware wise.
This patch adds a CAP to user space and a KVM cpuid leaf to indicate
availability of native MWAIT execution. With that enabled, the worst a
guest can do is waste as many cycles as a "jmp ." would do, so it's not
a privilege problem.
We consciously do *not* expose the feature in our CPUID bitmap, as most
people will want to benefit from sleeping vCPUs to allow for over commit.

similar check, only one VMM can exist. If the other VMM is not prepared
and blindly sets/clears X86_CR4_VMXE, we will get inconsistencies with
X86_CR4_VMXE.
As we also had bug reports related to clearing of vmcs with vmm_exclusive=0
this seems to be pretty much untested. So let's better drop it.
While at it, directly move setting/clearing X86_CR4_VMXE into
kvm_cpu_vmxon/off.

If the KSS facility is available on the machine, we also make it
available for our KVM guests.
The KSS facility bypasses storage key management as long as the guest
does not issue a related instruction. When that happens, the control is
returned to the host, which has to turn off KSS for a guest vcpu
before retrying the instruction.

This patch adds some workarounds to make Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming 5
board working without the conflicts of kctls, etc. In general, the
dual codec configs result in the conflicts of the following stuff:
- Master controls
- Capture controls
- Analog loopback controls
In addition, the auto-mute and the auto-mic can't work well among
multiple codecs.
The current "solution" is to disable all these features, and use UCM
for a better PulseAudio management. For a dedicated UCM profile, the
patch overrides the card longname so that the system an get a unique
profile path.
