Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This pull request has a lot of work done. The main thing is the
changes to the ftrace function callback infrastructure. It's
introducing a way to allow different functions to call directly
different trampolines instead of all calling the same "mcount" one.
The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which
always had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline
was called and did basically nothing, and then the function graph
tracer trampoline was called. The difference now, is that the
function graph tracer trampoline can be called directly if a function
is only being traced by the function graph trampoline. If function
tracing is also happening on the same function, the old way is still
done.
The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph
tracing is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it
uses. I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not
ready yet for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next
one.
Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls
that were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function
tracing when entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of
ftrace was done because there was some function that would crash the
system if one called smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big
hammer to solve the issue at the time, which was when ftrace was first
introduced into Linux. Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug
such issues, and I found the problem function and labeled it with
"notrace" and function tracing can now safely be activated all the way
down into the guts of suspend and resume
Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code, clean up of the
trace_seq() code, and other various small fixes and clean ups to
ftrace and tracing"

We don't have any good way to figure out what kinds of flushes
are being attempted. Right now, we can try to use the vm
counters, but those only tell us what we actually did with the
hardware (one-by-one vs full) and don't tell us what was actually
_requested_.
This allows us to select out "interesting" TLB flushes that we
might want to optimize (like the ranged ones) and ignore the ones
that we have very little control over (the ones at context
switch).

I think the flush_tlb_mm_range() code that tries to tune the
flush sizes based on the CPU needs to get ripped out for
several reasons:
1. It is obviously buggy. It uses mm->total_vm to judge the
task's footprint in the TLB. It should certainly be using
some measure of RSS, *NOT* ->total_vm since only resident
memory can populate the TLB.
2. Haswell, and several other CPUs are missing from the
intel_tlb_flushall_shift_set() function. Thus, it has been
demonstrated to bitrot quickly in practice.
3. It is plain wrong in my vm:
[ 0.037444] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
[ 0.037444] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0
[ 0.037444] tlb_flushall_shift: 6
Which leads to it to never use invlpg.
4. The assumptions about TLB refill costs are wrong:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337782555-8088-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com
(more on this in later patches)
5. I can not reproduce the original data: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
I believe the sample times were too short. Running the
benchmark in a loop yields times that vary quite a bit.
Note that this leaves us with a static ceiling of 1 page. This
is a conservative, dumb setting, and will be revised in a later
patch.
This also removes the code which attempts to predict whether we
are flushing data or instructions. We expect instruction flushes
to be relatively rare and not worth tuning for explicitly.

This moves the espfix64 logic into native_iret. To make this work,
it gets rid of the native patch for INTERRUPT_RETURN:
INTERRUPT_RETURN on native kernels is now 'jmp native_iret'.
This changes the 16-bit SS behavior on Xen from OOPSing to leaking
some bits of the Xen hypervisor's RSP (I think).
[ hpa: this is a nonzero cost on native, but probably not enough to
measure. Xen needs to fix this in their own code, probably doing
something equivalent to espfix64. ]

According to the Intel SDM vol 3A (order code 253668-051US, June 2014),
on section 9.11.1, page 9-28:
"For microcode updates with a data size field equal to 00000000H, the
size of the microcode update is 2048 bytes. The first 48 bytes contain
the microcode update header. The remaining 2000 bytes contain encrypted
data."
"For microcode updates with a data size not equal to 00000000H, the total
size field specifies the size of the microcode update."
Up to 2002/2003, Intel used an "old format" for the microcode update
containers that was always 2048 bytes in size. That old format did not
have Data Size and Total Size fields, the quadwords at those positions
in the microcode container header were "reserved". The microcode header
of the "old format" microcode container has a hrdver of 0x01. You can
hunt down an old copy of the Intel SDM to validate this through its
order number (#243192). I found one from 1999 through a Google search.
Sometime in 2002/2003 (AFAICT, for the Prescott processors), Intel
documented a new format for the microcode containers and contributed in
2003 some code to the Linux kernel microcode driver implementing support
for the new format. This new format has Data Size and Total Size fields,
as well as the optional extended signature table. However, it reuses the
same hrdver as the old format (0x01), and it can only be told apart from
the old format by a non-zero Data Size field.
In fact, the only reason we can even trust a Data Size of zero to mean
that the microcode container is in the old format, is because Intel
reatroatively promised that the old format would always have a zero
there when they wrote the documentation for the _new_ format.
This is a very old bug, dating back to 2003. It has been dormant
ever since, as Intel seems to set all reserved fields to zero on the
microcode updates they distribute: I could not find a public microcode
update that would trigger this bug.

The Power Management Controller (PMC) controls many of the power
management features present in the Atom SoC. This driver provides
a native power off function via PMC PCI IO port.
On some ACPI hardware-reduced platforms(e.g. ASUS-T100), ACPI sleep
registers are not valid so that (*pm_power_off)() is not hooked by
acpi_power_off(). The power off function in this driver is installed
only when pm_power_off is NULL.

Haswell and newer Intel CPUs have support for RTM, and in that case DR6.RTM is
not fixed to 1 and DR7.RTM is not fixed to zero. That is not the case in the
current KVM implementation. This bug is apparent only if the MOV-DR instruction
is emulated or the host also debugs the guest.
This patch is a partial fix which enables DR6.RTM and DR7.RTM to be cleared and
set respectively. It also sets DR6.RTM upon every debug exception. Obviously,
it is not a complete fix, as debugging of RTM is still unsupported.

Now ARM64 support is being added to ACPI so architecture specific
values can not be used in core ACPI code.
Following on the patch "ACPI / processor: Check if LAPIC is present
during initialization" which uses acpi_lapic in acpi_processor.c,
on ARM64 platform, GIC is used instead of local APIC, so acpi_lapic
is not a suitable value for ARM64.
What is actually important at this point is if there is/are CPU
entry/entries (Local APIC/SAPIC, GICC) in MADT, so introduce
acpi_has_cpu_in_madt() to be arch specific and generic.

It appears that the BayTrail-T class of hardware requires EFI in order
to powerdown and reboot and no other reliable method exists.
This quirk is generally applicable to all hardware that has the ACPI
Hardware Reduced bit set, since usually ACPI would be the preferred
method.

The function graph trampoline is called from the function trampoline
and both do a save and restore of registers. The save of registers
done by the function trampoline when only the function graph tracer
is running is a waste of CPU cycles.
As the function graph tracer trampoline in x86 is dependent from
the function trampoline, we can call it directly when a function
is only being traced by the function graph trampoline.

When a vSMP Foundation box is detected, the function apic_cluster_num() counts
the number of APIC clusters found. If more than one found, a multi board
configuration is assumed, and TSC marked as unstable. This behavior is
incorrect as vSMP Foundation may use processors from single node only, attached
to memory of other nodes - and such node may have more than one APIC cluster
(typically any recent intel box has more than single APIC_CLUSTERID(x)).
To fix this, we simply remove the code which detects a vSMP Foundation box and
affects apic_is_clusted_box() return value. This can be done because later the
kernel checks by itself if the TSC is stable using the
check_tsc_sync_[source|target]() functions and marks TSC as unstable if needed.

Both the 32-bit and 64-bit cmpxchg.h header define __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG
and there's ifdeffery which checks it. But since both bitness define it,
we can just as well move it up to the main cmpxchg header and simpify a
bit of code in doing that.

Putting the vvar area after the vdso text is rather complicated: it
only works of the total length of the vdso text mapping is known at
vdso link time, and the linker doesn't allow symbol addresses to
depend on the sizes of non-allocatable data after the PT_LOAD
segment.
Moving the vvar area before the vdso text will allow is to safely
map non-allocatable data after the vdso text, which is a nice
simplification.

rip_relative is only set if decode_modrm runs, and if you have ModRM
you will also have a memopp. We can then access memopp unconditionally.
Note that rip_relative cannot be hoisted up to decode_modrm, or you
break "mov $0, xyz(%rip)".
Also, move typecast on "out of range value" of mem.ea to decode_modrm.
Together, all these optimizations save about 50 cycles on each emulated
instructions (4-6%).
