x86/speculation: Rework SMT state change

2018-11-28T10:57:07Z

arch_smt_update() is only called when the sysfs SMT control knob is changed. This means that when SMT is enabled in the sysfs control knob the system is considered to have SMT active even if all siblings are offline. To allow finegrained control of the speculation mitigations, the actual SMT state is more interesting than the fact that siblings could be enabled. Rework the code, so arch_smt_update() is invoked from each individual CPU hotplug function, and simplify the update function while at it.

cpu/SMT: State SMT is disabled even with nosmt and without "=force"

2018-10-05T08:20:31Z

When booting with "nosmt=force" a message is issued into dmesg to confirm that SMT has been force-disabled but such a message is not issued when only "nosmt" is on the kernel command line. Fix that.

x86/speculation: Enable cross-hyperthread spectre v2 STIBP mitigation

2018-09-26T12:26:52Z

STIBP is a feature provided by certain Intel ucodes / CPUs. This feature (once enabled) prevents cross-hyperthread control of decisions made by indirect branch predictors. Enable this feature if - the CPU is vulnerable to spectre v2 - the CPU supports SMT and has SMT siblings online - spectre_v2 mitigation autoselection is enabled (default) After some previous discussion, this leaves STIBP on all the time, as wrmsr on crossing kernel boundary is a no-no. This could perhaps later be a bit more optimized (like disabling it in NOHZ, experiment with disabling it in idle, etc) if needed. Note that the synchronization of the mask manipulation via newly added spec_ctrl_mutex is currently not strictly needed, as the only updater is already being serialized by cpu_add_remove_lock, but let's make this a little bit more future-proof.

locking/lockdep, cpu/hotplug: Annotate AP thread

2018-09-11T18:01:03Z

Anybody trying to assert the cpu_hotplug_lock is held (lockdep_assert_cpus_held()) from AP callbacks will fail, because the lock is held by the BP. Stick in an explicit annotation in cpuhp_thread_fun() to make this work.

cpu/hotplug: Prevent state corruption on error rollback

2018-09-06T13:21:38Z

When a teardown callback fails, the CPU hotplug code brings the CPU back to the previous state. The previous state becomes the new target state. The rollback happens in undo_cpu_down() which increments the state unconditionally even if the state is already the same as the target. As a consequence the next CPU hotplug operation will start at the wrong state. This is easily to observe when __cpu_disable() fails. Prevent the unconditional undo by checking the state vs. target before incrementing state and fix up the consequently wrong conditional in the unplug code which handles the failure of the final CPU take down on the control CPU side.

cpu/hotplug: Remove skip_onerr field from cpuhp_step structure

2018-08-31T12:13:03Z

When notifiers were there, `skip_onerr` was used to avoid calling particular step startup/teardown callbacks in the CPU up/down rollback path, which made the hotplug asymmetric. As notifiers are gone now after the full state machine conversion, the `skip_onerr` field is no longer required. Remove it from the structure and its usage.
