Pull timer fix from Borislav Petkov:
- Do the push of pending hrtimers away from a CPU which is being
offlined earlier in the offlining process in order to prevent a
deadlock

hrtimers: Push pending hrtimers away from outgoing CPU earlier
2b8272ff4a ("cpu/hotplug: Prevent self deadlock on CPU hot-unplug")
solved the straight forward CPU hotplug deadlock vs. the scheduler
bandwidth timer. Yu discovered a more involved variant where a task which
has a bandwidth timer started on the outgoing CPU holds a lock and then
gets throttled. If the lock required by one of the CPU hotplug callbacks
the hotplug operation deadlocks because the unthrottling timer event is not
handled on the dying CPU and can only be recovered once the control CPU
reaches the hotplug state which pulls the pending hrtimers from the dead
CPU.
Solve this by pushing the hrtimers away from the dying CPU in the dying
callbacks. Nothing can queue a hrtimer on the dying CPU at that point because
all other CPUs spin in stop_machine() with interrupts disabled and once the
operation is finished the CPU is marked offline.

- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have a

correctly implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By chance
a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes the
hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask is
never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core to
deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or even
non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned long
or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die
IDs. That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is
subject to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online
cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology

If a system has isolated CPUs via the "isolcpus=" command line parameter,

rebuild_sched_domains_locked()
ndoms = generate_sched_domains(&doms, &attr);
cpumask_and(doms[0], top_cpuset.effective_cpus, housekeeping_cpumask(HK_FLAG_DOMAIN));
Thus results in an empty CPU mask which triggers the warning and then the
subsequent crash:

The SMT control mechanism got added as speculation attack vector
mitigation. The implemented logic relies on the primary thread mask to
be set up properly.
This turns out to be an issue with XEN/PV guests because their CPU hotplug
mechanics do not enumerate APICs and therefore the mask is never correctly
populated.
This went unnoticed so far because by chance XEN/PV ends up with
smp_num_siblings == 2. So smt_hotplug_control stays at its default value
CPU_SMT_ENABLED and the primary thread mask is never evaluated in the
context of CPU hotplug.
This stopped "working" with the upcoming overhaul of the topology
evaluation which legitimately provides a fake topology for XEN/PV. That
sets smp_num_siblings to 1, which causes the core CPU hot-plug core to
refuse to bring up the APs.
This happens because smt_hotplug_control is set to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED
which causes cpu_smt_allowed() to evaluate the unpopulated primary thread
mask with the conclusion that all non-boot CPUs are not valid to be
plugged.
Make cpu_smt_allowed() more robust and take CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED and
CPU_SMT_NOT_IMPLEMENTED into account. Rename it to cpu_bootable() while at
it as that makes it more clear what the function is about.
The primary mask issue on x86 XEN/PV needs to be addressed separately as
there are users outside of the CPU hotplug code too.

rcu_report_dead() and rcutree_migrate_callbacks() have their headers in

Also rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() have different naming

rcu_report_dead() has to be called locally by the CPU that is going to
exit the RCU state machine. Passing a cpu argument here is error-prone
and leaves the possibility for a racy remote call.
Use local access instead.

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

CPU1 CPU2
T1 sets cfs_quota
starts hrtimer cfs_bandwidth 'period_timer'
T1 is migrated to CPU2
T1 initiates offlining of CPU1
Hotplug operation starts
...
'period_timer' expires and is re-enqueued on CPU1
...
take_cpu_down()
CPU1 shuts down and does not handle timers
anymore. They have to be migrated in the
post dead hotplug steps by the control task.
T1 runs the post dead offline operation
T1 is scheduled out
T1 waits for 'period_timer' to expire
T1 waits there forever if it is scheduled out before it can execute the hrtimer
offline callback hrtimers_dead_cpu().
Cure this by delegating the hotplug control operation to a worker thread on
an online CPU. This takes the initiating user space task, which might be
affected by the bandwidth timer, completely out of the picture.

Commit e1572f1d08 ("cpu/SMT: create and export cpu_smt_possible()")
introduces cpu_smt_possible() to represent if SMT is theoretically
possible. It returns true when SMT is supported and not forcefully
disabled ('nosmt=force'). But the comment of it says "Returns true if
SMT is not supported of forcefully (irreversibly) disabled", which is
wrong. Fix that comment accordingly.

Add support to the /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control interface for
enabling a specified number of SMT threads per core, including partial
SMT states where not all threads are brought online.
The current interface accepts "on" and "off", to enable either 1 or all
SMT threads per core.
This commit allows writing an integer, between 1 and the number of SMT
threads supported by the machine. Writing 1 is a synonym for "off", 2 or
more enables SMT with the specified number of threads.
When reading the file, if all threads are online "on" is returned, to
avoid changing behaviour for existing users. If some other number of
threads is online then the integer value is returned.
Architectures like x86 only supporting 1 thread or all threads, should not
define CONFIG_SMT_NUM_THREADS_DYNAMIC. Architecture supporting partial SMT
states, like PowerPC, should define it.

Some architectures allows partial SMT states, i.e. when not all SMT threads
are brought online.
To support that, add an architecture helper which checks whether a given
CPU is allowed to be brought online depending on how many SMT threads are
currently enabled. Since this is only applicable to architecture supporting
partial SMT, only these architectures should select the new configuration
variable CONFIG_SMT_NUM_THREADS_DYNAMIC. For the other architectures, not
supporting the partial SMT states, there is no need to define
topology_cpu_smt_allowed(), the generic code assumed that all the threads
are allowed or only the primary ones.
Call the helper from cpu_smt_enable(), and cpu_smt_allowed() when SMT is
enabled, to check if the particular thread should be onlined. Notably,
also call it from cpu_smt_disable() if CPU_SMT_ENABLED, to allow
offlining some threads to move from a higher to lower number of threads
online.

Some architectures allow partial SMT states at boot time, ie. when not all
SMT threads are brought online.
To support that the SMT code needs to know the maximum number of SMT
threads, and also the currently configured number.
The architecture code knows the max number of threads, so have the
architecture code pass that value to cpu_smt_set_num_threads(). Note that
although topology_max_smt_threads() exists, it is not configured early
enough to be used here. As architecture, like PowerPC, allows the threads
number to be set through the kernel command line, also pass that value.

cpuhp_bringup_mask() iterates over a cpumask and starts all present CPUs up
to a caller provided upper limit.
The limit variable is decremented and checked for 0 before invoking
cpu_up(), which is obviously off by one and prevents the bringup of the
last CPU when the limit is equal to the number of present CPUs.
Move the decrement and check after the cpu_up() invocation.

There is often significant latency in the early stages of CPU bringup, and
time is wasted by waking each CPU (e.g. with SIPI/INIT/INIT on x86) and
then waiting for it to respond before moving on to the next.
Allow a platform to enable parallel setup which brings all to be onlined
CPUs up to the CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP state. While this state advancement on the
control CPU (BP) is single-threaded the important part is the last state
CPUHP_BP_KICK_AP which wakes the to be onlined CPUs up.
This allows the CPUs to run up to the first sychronization point
cpuhp_ap_sync_alive() where they wait for the control CPU to release them
one by one for the full onlining procedure.
This parallelism depends on the CPU hotplug core sync mechanism which
ensures that the parallel brought up CPUs wait for release before touching
any state which would make the CPU visible to anything outside the hotplug
control mechanism.
To handle the SMT constraints of X86 correctly the bringup happens in two
iterations when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT is enabled. The control CPU brings up
the primary SMT threads of each core first, which can load the microcode
without the need to rendevouz with the thread siblings. Once that's
completed it brings up the secondary SMT threads.

The bring up logic of a to be onlined CPU consists of several parts, which
are considered to be a single hotplug state:
1) Control CPU issues the wake-up
2) To be onlined CPU starts up, does the minimal initialization,
reports to be alive and waits for release into the complete bring-up.
3) Control CPU waits for the alive report and releases the upcoming CPU
for the complete bring-up.
Allow to split this into two states:
1) Control CPU issues the wake-up
After that the to be onlined CPU starts up, does the minimal
initialization, reports to be alive and waits for release into the
full bring-up. As this can run after the control CPU dropped the
hotplug locks the code which is executed on the AP before it reports
alive has to be carefully audited to not violate any of the hotplug
constraints, especially not modifying any of the various cpumasks.
This is really only meant to avoid waiting for the AP to react on the
wake-up. Of course an architecture can move strict CPU related setup
functionality, e.g. microcode loading, with care before the
synchronization point to save further pointless waiting time.
2) Control CPU waits for the alive report and releases the upcoming CPU
for the complete bring-up.
This allows that the two states can be split up to run all to be onlined
CPUs up to state #1 on the control CPU and then at a later point run state
#2. This spares some of the latencies of the full serialized per CPU
bringup by avoiding the per CPU wakeup/wait serialization. The assumption
is that the first AP already waits when the last AP has been woken up. This
obvioulsy depends on the hardware latencies and depending on the timings
this might still not completely eliminate all wait scenarios.
This split is just a preparatory step for enabling the parallel bringup
later. The boot time bringup is still fully serialized. It has a separate
config switch so that architectures which want to support parallel bringup
can test the split of the CPUHP_BRINGUG step separately.
To enable this the architecture must support the CPU hotplug core sync
mechanism and has to be audited that there are no implicit hotplug state
dependencies which require a fully serialized bringup.

Commit dce1ca0525 ("sched/scs: Reset task stack state in bringup_cpu()")
ensured that the shadow call stack and KASAN poisoning were removed from
a CPU's stack each time that CPU is brought up, not just once.
This is not incorrect. However, with parallel bringup the idle thread setup
will happen at a different step. As a consequence the cleanup in
bringup_cpu() would be too late.
Move the SCS/KASAN cleanup to the generic _cpu_up() function instead,
which already ensures that the new CPU's stack is available, purely to
allow for early failure. This occurs when the CPU to be brought up is
in the CPUHP_OFFLINE state, which should correctly do the cleanup any
time the CPU has been taken down to the point where such is needed.

The CPU state tracking and synchronization mechanism in smpboot.c is
completely independent of the hotplug code and all logic around it is
implemented in architecture specific code.
Except for the state reporting of the AP there is absolutely nothing
architecture specific and the sychronization and decision functions can be
moved into the generic hotplug core code.
Provide an integrated variant and add the core synchronization and decision
points. This comes in two flavours:
1) DEAD state synchronization
Updated by the architecture code once the AP reaches the point where
it is ready to be torn down by the control CPU, e.g. by removing power
or clocks or tear down via the hypervisor.
The control CPU waits for this state to be reached with a timeout. If
the state is reached an architecture specific cleanup function is
invoked.
2) Full state synchronization
This extends #1 with AP alive synchronization. This is new
functionality, which allows to replace architecture specific wait
mechanims, e.g. cpumasks, completely.
It also prevents that an AP which is in a limbo state can be brought
up again. This can happen when an AP failed to report dead state
during a previous off-line operation.
The dead synchronization is what most architectures use. Only x86 makes a
bringup decision based on that state at the moment.

The DYING/STARTING callbacks are not expected to fail. However, as reported
by Derek, buggy drivers such as tboot are still free to return errors
within those sections, which halts the hot(un)plug and leaves the CPU in an
unrecoverable state.
As there is no rollback possible, only log the failures and proceed with
the following steps.
This restores the hotplug behaviour prior to commit 453e410851

Writing the current state back in hotplug/target calls cpu_down()
which will set cpu dying even when it isn't and then nothing will
ever clear it. A stress test that reads values and writes them back
for all cpu device files in sysfs will trigger the BUG() in
select_fallback_rq once all cpus are marked as dying.
kernel/cpu.c::target_store()
...
if (st->state < target)
ret = cpu_up(dev->id, target);
else
ret = cpu_down(dev->id, target);
cpu_down() -> cpu_set_state()
bool bringup = st->state < target;
...
if (cpu_dying(cpu) != !bringup)
set_cpu_dying(cpu, !bringup);
Fix this by letting state==target fall through in the target_store()
conditional. Also make sure st->target == target in that case.

This is the Intel version of a confidential computing solution called
Trust Domain Extensions (TDX). This series adds support to run the
kernel as part of a TDX guest. It provides similar guest protections to
AMD's SEV-SNP like guest memory and register state encryption, memory
integrity protection and a lot more.
Design-wise, it differs from AMD's solution considerably: it uses
a software module which runs in a special CPU mode called (Secure
Arbitration Mode) SEAM. As the name suggests, this module serves as sort
of an arbiter which the confidential guest calls for services it needs
during its lifetime.
Just like AMD's SNP set, this series reworks and streamlines certain
parts of x86 arch code so that this feature can be properly accomodated.

cpuhp_create() is too late as it is used earlier in _cpu_up().
If kzalloc_node() in __smpboot_create_thread() fails then the rollback will
be done with st->cpu==0 causing CPU0 to be erroneously set to be dying,
causing the scheduler to get mightily confused and throw its toys out of

However the cpu number is actually available directly, so simply remove

Unlike regular VMs, TDX guests use the firmware hand-off wakeup method
to wake up the APs during the boot process. This wakeup model uses a
mailbox to communicate with firmware to bring up the APs. As per the
design, this mailbox can only be used once for the given AP, which means
after the APs are booted, the same mailbox cannot be used to
offline/online the given AP. More details about this requirement can be
found in Intel TDX Virtual Firmware Design Guide, sec titled "AP
initialization in OS" and in sec titled "Hotplug Device".
Since the architecture does not support any method of offlining the
CPUs, disable CPU hotplug support in the kernel.
Since this hotplug disable feature can be re-used by other VM guests,
add a new CC attribute CC_ATTR_HOTPLUG_DISABLED and use it to disable
the hotplug support.
Attempt to offline CPU will fail with -EOPNOTSUPP.

For the irq randomness fast pool, rather than having to use expensive
atomics, which were visibly the most expensive thing in the entire irq
handler, simply take care of the extreme edge case of resetting count to
zero in the cpuhp online handler, just after workqueues have been
reenabled. This simplifies the code a bit and lets us use vanilla
variables rather than atomics, and performance should be improved.
As well, very early on when the CPU comes up, while interrupts are still
disabled, we clear out the per-cpu crng and its batches, so that it
always starts with fresh randomness.

To hot unplug a CPU, the idle task on that CPU calls a few layers of C
code before finally leaving the kernel. When KASAN is in use, poisoned
shadow is left around for each of the active stack frames, and when
shadow call stacks are in use. When shadow call stacks (SCS) are in use
the task's saved SCS SP is left pointing at an arbitrary point within
the task's shadow call stack.
When a CPU is offlined than onlined back into the kernel, this stale
state can adversely affect execution. Stale KASAN shadow can alias new
stackframes and result in bogus KASAN warnings. A stale SCS SP is
effectively a memory leak, and prevents a portion of the shadow call
stack being used. Across a number of hotplug cycles the idle task's
entire shadow call stack can become unusable.
We previously fixed the KASAN issue in commit:
e1b77c9298 ("sched/kasan: remove stale KASAN poison after hotplug")
... by removing any stale KASAN stack poison immediately prior to
onlining a CPU.
Subsequently in commit:
f1a0a376ca ("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled")
... the refactoring left the KASAN and SCS cleanup in one-time idle
thread initialization code rather than something invoked prior to each
CPU being onlined, breaking both as above.
We fixed SCS (but not KASAN) in commit:
63acd42c0d ("sched/scs: Reset the shadow stack when idle_task_exit")
... but as this runs in the context of the idle task being offlined it's
potentially fragile.
To fix these consistently and more robustly, reset the SCS SP and KASAN
shadow of a CPU's idle task immediately before we online that CPU in
bringup_cpu(). This ensures the idle task always has a consistent state
when it is running, and removes the need to so so when exiting an idle
task.
Whenever any thread is created, dup_task_struct() will give the task a
stack which is free of KASAN shadow, and initialize the task's SCS SP,
so there's no need to specially initialize either for idle thread within
init_idle(), as this was only necessary to handle hotplug cycles.
I've tested this on arm64 with:
* gcc 11.1.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK
* clang 12.0.0, defconfig +KASAN_INLINE, KASAN_STACK, SHADOW_CALL_STACK
... offlining and onlining CPUS with:
| while true; do
| for C in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online; do
| echo 0 > $C;
| echo 1 > $C;
| done
| done

cpu/hotplug: Cure the cpusets trainwreck
Alexey and Joshua tried to solve a cpusets related hotplug problem which is
user space visible and results in unexpected behaviour for some time after
a CPU has been plugged in and the corresponding uevent was delivered.
cpusets delegate the hotplug work (rebuilding cpumasks etc.) to a
workqueue. This is done because the cpusets code has already a lock
nesting of cgroups_mutex -> cpu_hotplug_lock. A synchronous callback or
waiting for the work to finish with cpu_hotplug_lock held can and will
deadlock because that results in the reverse lock order.
As a consequence the uevent can be delivered before cpusets have consistent
state which means that a user space invocation of sched_setaffinity() to
move a task to the plugged CPU fails up to the point where the scheduled
work has been processed.
The same is true for CPU unplug, but that does not create user observable
failure (yet).
It's still inconsistent to claim that an operation is finished before it
actually is and that's the real issue at hand. uevents just make it
reliably observable.
Obviously the problem should be fixed in cpusets/cgroups, but untangling
that is pretty much impossible because according to the changelog of the
commit which introduced this 8 years ago:
3a5a6d0c2b03("cpuset: don't nest cgroup_mutex inside get_online_cpus()")
the lock order cgroups_mutex -> cpu_hotplug_lock is a design decision and
the whole code is built around that.
So bite the bullet and invoke the relevant cpuset function, which waits for
the work to finish, in _cpu_up/down() after dropping cpu_hotplug_lock and
only when tasks are not frozen by suspend/hibernate because that would
obviously wait forever.
Waiting there with cpu_add_remove_lock, which is protecting the present
and possible CPU maps, held is not a problem at all because neither work
queues nor cpusets/cgroups have any lockchains related to that lock.
Waiting in the hotplug machinery is not problematic either because there
are already state callbacks which wait for hardware queues to drain. It
makes the operations slightly slower, but hotplug is slow anyway.
This ensures that state is consistent before returning from a hotplug
up/down operation. It's still inconsistent during the operation, but that's
a different story.
Add a large comment which explains why this is done and why this is not a
dump ground for the hack of the day to work around half thought out locking
schemes. Document also the implications vs. hotplug operations and
serialization or the lack of it.
Thanks to Alexy and Joshua for analyzing why this temporary
sched_setaffinity() failure happened.

It is unnecessary to invoke per_cpu_ptr() everytime to access cpuhp_state.
Use the available pointer instead.

Vincent reported that for states with a NULL startup/teardown function
we do not call cpuhp_invoke_callback() (because there is none) and as
such we'll not update the cpu_dying() state.
The stale cpu_dying() can eventually lead to triggering BUG().
Rectify this by updating cpu_dying() in the exact same places the
hotplug machinery tracks its directional state, namely
cpuhp_set_state() and cpuhp_reset_state().

Introduce a cpumask that indicates (for each CPU) what direction the
CPU hotplug is currently going. Notably, it tracks rollbacks. Eg. when
an up fails and we do a roll-back down, it will accurately reflect the
direction.
