s390/vtime: fix average steal time calculation Current average steal timer calculation produces volatile and inflated values. The only user of this value is KVM so far and it uses that to decide whether or not to yield the vCPU which is seeing steal time. KVM compares average steal timer to a threshold and if the threshold is past then it does not allow CPU polling and yields it to host, else it keeps the CPU by polling. Since KVM's steal time threshold is very low by default (%10) it most likely is not effected much by the bloated average steal timer values because the operating region is pretty small. However there might be new users in the future who might rely on this number. Fix average steal timer calculation by changing the formula from: avg_steal_timer = avg_steal_timer / 2 + steal_timer; to the following: avg_steal_timer = (avg_steal_timer + steal_timer) / 2; This ensures that avg_steal_timer is actually a naive average of steal timer values. It now closely follows steal timer values but of course in a smoother manner.

s390/vtime: correct scaled cputime for SMT The scaled cputime is supposed to be derived from the normal per-thread cputime by dividing it with the average thread density in the last interval. The calculation of the scaling values for the average thread density is incorrect. The current, incorrect calculation: Ci = cycle count with i active threads T = unscaled cputime, sT = scaled cputime sT = T * (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) / (1*C1 + 2*C2 + ... + n*Cn) The calculation happens to yield the correct numbers for the simple cases with only one Ci value not zero. But for cases with multiple Ci values not zero it fails. E.g. on a SMT-2 system with one thread active half the time and two threads active for the other half of the time it fails, the scaling factor should be 3/4 but the formula gives 2/3. The correct formula is sT = T * (C1/1 + C2/2 + ... + Cn/n) / (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

s390: add SMT support The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family. This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating system with all its registers and properties. The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information is a core representing a number of hardware threads. To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.

s390/vtime: Get rid of redundant WARN_ON in the cpu time accounting function vtime_account_irq_enter (vtime_account_system) we use a WARN_ON_ONCE(!irqs_disabled()). This is redundant as the function virt_timer_forward is always called and has a BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()). This saves several nanoseconds in my specific testcase (KVM entry/exit) and probably all other callers like (soft)irq entry/exit.

s390: Replace __get_cpu_var uses __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable.

s390: delete __cpuinit usage from all s390 files The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/s390 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. Currently s390 does not have any __CPUINIT used in assembly files.

s390/vtimer: rework virtual timer interface The current virtual timer interface is inherently per-cpu and hard to use. The sole user of the interface is appldata which uses it to execute a function after a specific amount of cputime has been used over all cpus. Rework the virtual timer interface to hook into the cputime accounting. This makes the interface independent from the CPU timer interrupts, and makes the virtual timers global as opposed to per-cpu. Overall the code is greatly simplified. The downside is that the accuracy is not as good as the original implementation, but it is still good enough for appldata.

Besides the name this paramter does not only contain the ext_int_code but in addition also the "cpu address" (POP) which caused the external interrupt. To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called function can easily distinguish between external interrupt code and cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a different parameter (or none at all).

Split smp related functions to those operating on physical cpus and the functions operating on a logical cpu number. Make the functions for physical cpus use a pointer to a struct pcpu. This hides the knowledge about cpu addresses in smp.c, entry[64].S and swsusp_asm64.S, thus remove the sigp.h header. The PSW restart mechanism is used to start secondary cpus, calling a function on an online cpu, calling a function on the ipl cpu, and for the nmi signal. Replace the different assembler functions with a single function restart_int_handler. The new entry point calls a function whose pointer is stored in the lowcore of the target cpu and it can wait for the source cpu to stop. This covers all existing use cases.

[S390] nohz/s390: fix arch_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu() primitive: arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu". In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

[S390] idle time accounting vs. machine checks A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting. To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer, named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check by checking the wait bit in the program status word.

[S390] cputime: fix lowcore initialization on cpu hotplug On (initial) cpu hotplug the lowcore values for user_timer and system_timer don't get initialized like they would get on each process schedule. On initial start of secondary cpus this leads to the situation where per thread user/system_timer values are larger than the corresponding contents of the lowcore. When later calculating time spent in user/system context the result can be negative. So for cpu hotplug we should manually initialize lowcore values.

The CPU timer has a maximum granularity of 2**-12 microseconds.

[PATCH] idle cputime accounting The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time. The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time instead of just testing for the idle process. To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu. In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process. This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle time. This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

KVM: s390: arch backend for the kvm kernel module This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries (aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each. This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible. The following source files are introduced by this patch arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into sie64a to enter the guest machine context arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest context via SIE, and switches world before and after that include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run virtual machines on the mainframe include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to guest register content arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by later patches Acked-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times(). This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times that updates utime and stime into a separate function called account_process_tick. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined, there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to implement account_process_tick. This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390 timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a suitable account_process_tick(). account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument. Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The external time reference sends an oscillator signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check that indicates that the clock is out of sync.
