[PATCH V9 0/7] amd-pstate preferred core

by Meng Li

Hi all: The core frequency is subjected to the process variation in semiconductors. Not all cores are able to reach the maximum frequency respecting the infrastructure limits. Consequently, AMD has redefined the concept of maximum frequency of a part. This means that a fraction of cores can reach maximum frequency. To find the best process scheduling policy for a given scenario, OS needs to know the core ordering informed by the platform through highest performance capability register of the CPPC interface. Earlier implementations of amd-pstate preferred core only support a static core ranking and targeted performance. Now it has the ability to dynamically change the preferred core based on the workload and platform conditions and accounting for thermals and aging. Amd-pstate driver utilizes the functions and data structures provided by the ITMT architecture to enable the scheduler to favor scheduling on cores which can be get a higher frequency with lower voltage. We call it amd-pstate preferred core. Here sched_set_itmt_core_prio() is called to set priorities and sched_set_itmt_support() is called to enable ITMT feature. Amd-pstate driver uses the highest performance value to indicate the priority of CPU. The higher value has a higher priority. Amd-pstate driver will provide an initial core ordering at boot time. It relies on the CPPC interface to communicate the core ranking to the operating system and scheduler to make sure that OS is choosing the cores with highest performance firstly for scheduling the process. When amd-pstate driver receives a message with the highest performance change, it will update the core ranking.

[PATCH v2] selftests/mm: include mman header to access MREMAP_DONTUNMAP identifier

[PATCH 0/5] KVM: x86: Fix breakage in KVM_SET_XSAVE's ABI

by Sean Christopherson

Rework how KVM limits guest-unsupported xfeatures to effectively hide only when saving state for userspace (KVM_GET_XSAVE), i.e. to let userspace load all host-supported xfeatures (via KVM_SET_XSAVE) irrespective of what features have been exposed to the guest. The effect on KVM_SET_XSAVE was knowingly done by commit ad856280ddea ("x86/kvm/fpu: Limit guest user_xfeatures to supported bits of XCR0"): As a bonus, it will also fail if userspace tries to set fpu features (with the KVM_SET_XSAVE ioctl) that are not compatible to the guest configuration. Such features will never be returned by KVM_GET_XSAVE or KVM_GET_XSAVE2. Peventing userspace from doing stupid things is usually a good idea, but in this case restricting KVM_SET_XSAVE actually exacerbated the problem that commit ad856280ddea was fixing. As reported by Tyler, rejecting KVM_SET_XSAVE for guest-unsupported xfeatures breaks live migration from a kernel without commit ad856280ddea, to a kernel with ad856280ddea. I.e. from a kernel that saves guest-unsupported xfeatures to a kernel that doesn't allow loading guest-unuspported xfeatures. To make matters even worse, QEMU doesn't terminate if KVM_SET_XSAVE fails, and so the end result is that the live migration results (possibly silent) guest data corruption instead of a failed migration. Patch 1 refactors the FPU code to let KVM pass in a mask of which xfeatures to save, patch 2 fixes KVM by passing in guest_supported_xcr0 instead of modifying user_xfeatures directly. Patches 3-5 are regression tests. I have no objection if anyone wants patches 1 and 2 squashed together, I split them purely to make review easier. Note, this doesn't fix the scenario where a guest is migrated from a "bad" to a "good" kernel and the target host doesn't support the over-saved set of xfeatures. I don't see a way to safely handle that in the kernel without an opt-in, which more or less defeats the purpose of handling it in KVM.

[RFC v3 0/2] CPU-Idle latency selftest framework

by Aboorva Devarajan

The motivation behind this program is to find significant deviations behind advertised latency and residency values. The patchset measures latencies for two kinds of events. IPIs and Timers As this is a software-only mechanism, there will be additional latencies of the kernel-firmware-hardware interactions. To account for that, the program also measures a baseline latency on a 100 percent loaded CPU and the latencies achieved must be in view relative to that. To achieve this, we introduce a kernel module and expose its control knobs through the debugfs interface that the selftests can engage with. The kernel module provides the following interfaces within /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/latency_test/ for, IPI test: ipi_cpu_dest = Destination CPU for the IPI ipi_cpu_src = Origin of the IPI ipi_latency_ns = Measured latency time in ns Timeout test: timeout_cpu_src = CPU on which the timer to be queued timeout_expected_ns = Timer duration timeout_diff_ns = Difference of actual duration vs expected timer Sample output is as follows: # --IPI Latency Test--- # Baseline Avg IPI latency(ns): 2720 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State snooze: 2565 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop0_lite: 3856 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop0: 3670 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop1: 3872 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop2: 17421 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop4: 1003922 # Observed Avg IPI latency(ns) - State stop5: 1058870 # # --Timeout Latency Test-- # Baseline Avg timeout diff(ns): 1435 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State snooze: 1709 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop0_lite: 2028 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop0: 1954 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop1: 1895 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop2: 14556 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop4: 873988 # Observed Avg timeout diff(ns) - State stop5: 959137 Aboorva Devarajan (2): powerpc/cpuidle: cpuidle wakeup latency based on IPI and timer events powerpc/selftest: Add support for cpuidle latency measurement arch/powerpc/Kconfig.debug | 10 + arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile | 1 + arch/powerpc/kernel/test_cpuidle_latency.c | 154 ++++++ tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/Makefile | 1 + .../powerpc/cpuidle_latency/.gitignore | 2 + .../powerpc/cpuidle_latency/Makefile | 6 + .../cpuidle_latency/cpuidle_latency.sh | 443 ++++++++++++++++++ .../powerpc/cpuidle_latency/settings | 1 + 8 files changed, 618 insertions(+) create mode 100644 arch/powerpc/kernel/test_cpuidle_latency.c create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/cpuidle_latency/.gitignore create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/cpuidle_latency/Makefile create mode 100755 tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/cpuidle_latency/cpuidle_latency.sh create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/cpuidle_latency/settings -- 2.25.1

[PATCH v6] selftests/clone3: Fix broken test under !CONFIG_TIME_NS

by Tiezhu Yang

When execute the following command to test clone3 under !CONFIG_TIME_NS: # make headers && cd tools/testing/selftests/clone3 && make && ./clone3 we can see the following error info: # [7538] Trying clone3() with flags 0x80 (size 0) # Invalid argument - Failed to create new process # [7538] clone3() with flags says: -22 expected 0 not ok 18 [7538] Result (-22) is different than expected (0) ... # Totals: pass:18 fail:1 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0 This is because if CONFIG_TIME_NS is not set, but the flag CLONE_NEWTIME (0x80) is used to clone a time namespace, it will return -EINVAL in copy_time_ns(). If kernel does not support CONFIG_TIME_NS, /proc/self/ns/time will be not exist, and then we should skip clone3() test with CLONE_NEWTIME.
