      x86/smp/boot: Fix legacy SMP bootup slow-boot bug · 7cb68598
      Ingo Molnar authored
      So while testing kernels using tools/kvm/ (kvmtool) I noticed that it
      booted super slow:

      [    0.149265] x86: Booting SMP configuration:

      One CPU booted up per 10 seconds. With 120 CPUs that takes a while.
      
      Bisection pinpointed this commit:
      
        853b160a ("Revert f5d6a52f ("x86/smpboot: Skip delays during SMP initialization similar to Xen")")
      
      But that commit just restores previous behavior, so it cannot cause the
      problem. After some head scratching it turns out that these two commits:
      
        1a744cb3 ("x86/smp/boot: Remove 10ms delay from cpu_up() on modern processors")
        d68921f9 ("x86/smp/boot: Add cmdline "cpu_init_udelay=N" to specify cpu_up() delay")
      
      added the following code to smpboot.c:
      
      -               mdelay(10);
      +               mdelay(init_udelay);
      
      Note the mismatch in the units: the delay is called 'udelay' and is set
      to microseconds - while the function used here is actually 'mdelay',
      which counts in milliseconds ...
      
      So the delay for legacy systems is off by a factor of 1,000, so instead
      of 10 msecs we waited for 10 seconds ...
      
      The reason bisection pointed to 853b160a was that 853b160a removed
      a (broken) boot-time speedup patch, which masked the factor 1,000 bug.
      
      Fix it by using udelay(). This fixes my bootup problems.

      x86/asm/entry/64: Use shorter MOVs from segment registers · adeb5537
      Denys Vlasenko authored
      The "movw %ds,%cx" instruction needs a 0x66 prefix, while
      "movl %ds,%ecx" does not.
      
      The difference is that latter form (on 64-bit CPUs)
      overwrites the entire %ecx, not only its lower half.
      
      But subsequent code doesn't depend on the value of upper
      half of %ecx, so we can safely use the shorter instruction.
      
      The new code is also faster than the old one - now we don't
      depend on the old value of %ecx, but this code fragment is
      not performance-critical so it does not matter much.

      x86: Pack loops tightly as well · 52648e83
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Packing loops tightly (-falign-loops=1) is beneficial to code size:
      
           text        data    bss     dec              filename
       12566391        1617840 1089536 15273767         vmlinux.align.16-byte
       12224951        1617840 1089536 14932327         vmlinux.align.1-byte
       11976567        1617840 1089536 14683943         vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte
       11903735        1617840 1089536 14611111         vmlinux.align.1-byte.funcs-1-byte.loops-1-byte
      
      Which reduces the size of the kernel by another 0.6%, so the
      the total combined size reduction of the alignment-packing
      patches is ~5.5%.
      
      The x86 decoder bandwidth and caching arguments laid out in:
      
        be6cb027 ("x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries")
      
      apply to loop alignment as well.
      
      Furtermore, modern CPU uarchs have a loop cache/buffer that
      is a L0 cache before even any uop cache, covering a few
      dozen most recently executed instructions.
      
      This loop cache generally does not have the 16-byte alignment
      restrictions of the uop cache.
      
      Now loop alignment can still be beneficial if:
      
       - a loop is cache-hot and its surroundings are not.
      
       - if the loop is so cache hot that the instruction
         flow becomes x86 decoder bandwidth limited
      
      But loop alignment is harmful if:
      
       - a loop is cache-cold
      
       - a loop's surroundings are cache-hot as well
      
       - two cache-hot loops are close to each other
      
       - if the loop fits into the loop cache
      
       - if the code flow is not decoder bandwidth limited
      
      and I'd argue that the latter five scenarios are much
      more common in the kernel, as our hottest loops are
      typically:
      
       - pointer chasing: this should fit into the loop cache
         in most cases and is typically data cache and address
         generation limited
      
       - generic memory ops (memset, memcpy, etc.): these generally
         fit into the loop cache as well, and are likewise data
         cache limited.
      
      So this patch packs loop addresses tightly as well.

      x86: Align jump targets to 1-byte boundaries · be6cb027
      Ingo Molnar authored
      The following NOP in a hot function caught my attention:
      
        >   5a:	66 0f 1f 44 00 00    	nopw   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
      
      That's a dead NOP that bloats the function a bit, added for the
      default 16-byte alignment that GCC applies for jump targets.
      
      I realize that x86 CPU manufacturers recommend 16-byte jump
      target alignments (it's in the Intel optimization manual),
      to help their relatively narrow decoder prefetch alignment
      and uop cache constraints, but the cost of that is very
      significant:

      By using 1-byte jump target alignment (i.e. no alignment at all)
      we get an almost 3% reduction in kernel size (!) - and a
      probably similar reduction in I$ footprint.
      
      Now, the usual justification for jump target alignment is the
      following:
      
       - modern decoders tend to have 16-byte (effective) decoder
         prefetch windows. (AMD documents it higher but measurements
         suggest the effective prefetch window on curretn uarchs is
         still around 16 bytes)
      
       - on Intel there's also the uop-cache with cachelines that have
         16-byte granularity and limited associativity.
      
       - older x86 uarchs had a penalty for decoder fetches that crossed
         16-byte boundaries. These limits are mostly gone from recent
         uarchs.
      
      So if a forward jump target is aligned to cacheline boundary then
      prefetches will start from a new prefetch-cacheline and there's
      higher chance for decoding in fewer steps and packing tightly.
      
      But I think that argument is flawed for typical optimized kernel
      code flows: forward jumps often go to 'cold' (uncommon) pieces
      of code, and  aligning cold code to cache lines does not bring a
      lot of advantages  (they are uncommon), while it causes
      collateral damage:
      
       - their alignment 'spreads out' the cache footprint, it shifts
         followup hot code further out
      
       - plus it slows down even 'cold' code that immediately follows 'hot'
         code (like in the above case), which could have benefited from the
         partial cacheline that comes off the end of hot code.
      
      But even in the cache-hot case the 16 byte alignment brings
      disadvantages:
      
       - it spreads out the cache footprint, possibly making the code
         fall out of the L1 I$.
      
       - On Intel CPUs, recent microarchitectures have plenty of
         uop cache (typically doubling every 3 years) - while the
         size of the L1 cache grows much less aggressively. So
         workloads are rarely uop cache limited.
      
      The only situation where alignment might matter are tight
      loops that could fit into a single 16 byte chunk - but those
      are pretty rare in the kernel: if they exist they tend
      to be pointer chasing or generic memory ops, which both tend
      to be cache miss (or cache allocation) intensive and are not
      decoder bandwidth limited.
      
      So the balance of arguments strongly favors packing kernel
      instructions tightly versus maximizing for decoder bandwidth:
      this patch changes the jump target alignment from 16 bytes
      to 1 byte (tightly packed, unaligned).

      ext4: fix an ext3 collapse range regression in xfstests · b9576fc3
      Theodore Ts'o authored
      The xfstests test suite assumes that an attempt to collapse range on
      the range (0, 1) will return EOPNOTSUPP if the file system does not
      support collapse range.  Commit 280227a7: "ext4: move check under
      lock scope to close a race" broke this, and this caused xfstests to
      fail when run when testing file systems that did not have the extents
      feature enabled.

      Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "Two fixes here, one revert of a recent ACPICA commit that broke audio
        support on one Dell machine and a fix for a long-standing issue that
        may cause systems to break randomly during boot.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - The recent ACPICA commit that set the ACPI _REV return value to 2
           (which is the value always used by Windows and now mandated by the
           spec too) in order to prevent the firmware people from using it to
           play tricks with us caused a serious audio regression to happen on
           Dell XPS 13 (the AML on that machine uses the _REV return value to
           decide how to expose audio to the OS and does that to hide the lack
           of proper support for its I2S audio in Linux), so revert that
           commit for now and we'll revisit the issue in the next cycle.
      
         - Ensure that the ordering of acpi_reserve_resources() with respect
           to the rest of the ACPI initialization sequence will always be the
           same, or the IO or memory region occupied by the ACPI fixed
           registers may be assigned to a PCI host bridge as a result of a
           race and random breakage ensues going forward"
