commit a6c11c0a5235fb144a65e0cb2ffd360ddc1f6c32 upstream.

The absence of IRQD_MOVE_PCNTXT prevents immediate effectiveness of
interrupt affinity reconfiguration via procfs. Instead, the change is
deferred until the next instance of the interrupt being triggered on the
original CPU.

When the interrupt next triggers on the original CPU, the new affinity is
enforced within __irq_move_irq(). A vector is allocated from the new CPU,
but the old vector on the original CPU remains and is not immediately
reclaimed. Instead, apicd-&gt;move_in_progress is flagged, and the reclaiming
process is delayed until the next trigger of the interrupt on the new CPU.

Upon the subsequent triggering of the interrupt on the new CPU,
irq_complete_move() adds a task to the old CPU's vector_cleanup list if it
remains online. Subsequently, the timer on the old CPU iterates over its
vector_cleanup list, reclaiming old vectors.

However, a rare scenario arises if the old CPU is outgoing before the
interrupt triggers again on the new CPU.

In that case irq_force_complete_move() is not invoked on the outgoing CPU
to reclaim the old apicd-&gt;prev_vector because the interrupt isn't currently
affine to the outgoing CPU, and irq_needs_fixup() returns false. Even
though __vector_schedule_cleanup() is later called on the new CPU, it
doesn't reclaim apicd-&gt;prev_vector; instead, it simply resets both
apicd-&gt;move_in_progress and apicd-&gt;prev_vector to 0.

As a result, the vector remains unreclaimed in vector_matrix, leading to a
CPU vector leak.

To address this issue, move the invocation of irq_force_complete_move()
before the irq_needs_fixup() call to reclaim apicd-&gt;prev_vector, if the
interrupt is currently or used to be affine to the outgoing CPU.

Additionally, reclaim the vector in __vector_schedule_cleanup() as well,
following a warning message, although theoretically it should never see
apicd-&gt;move_in_progress with apicd-&gt;prev_cpu pointing to an offline CPU.

<title>x86/apic: Mark _all_ legacy interrupts when IO/APIC is missing</title>

commit 7d65f9e80646c595e8c853640a9d0768a33e204c upstream.

PIC interrupts do not support affinity setting and they can end up on
any online CPU. Therefore, it's required to mark the associated vectors
as system-wide reserved. Otherwise, the corresponding irq descriptors
are copied to the secondary CPUs but the vectors are not marked as
assigned or reserved. This works correctly for the IO/APIC case.

When the IO/APIC is disabled via config, kernel command line or lack of
enumeration then all legacy interrupts are routed through the PIC, but
nothing marks them as system-wide reserved vectors.

As a consequence, a subsequent allocation on a secondary CPU can result in
allocating one of these vectors, which triggers the BUG() in
apic_update_vector() because the interrupt descriptor slot is not empty.

Imran tried to work around that by marking those interrupts as allocated
when a CPU comes online. But that's wrong in case that the IO/APIC is
available and one of the legacy interrupts, e.g. IRQ0, has been switched to
PIC mode because then marking them as allocated will fail as they are
already marked as system vectors.

Stay consistent and update the legacy vectors after attempting IO/APIC
initialization and mark them as system vectors in case that no IO/APIC is
available.

commit 190113b4c6531c8e09b31d5235f9b5175cbb0f72 upstream.

Prarit reported that depending on the affinity setting the

 ' irq $N: Affinity broken due to vector space exhaustion.'

message is showing up in dmesg, but the vector space on the CPUs in the
affinity mask is definitely not exhausted.

Shung-Hsi provided traces and analysis which pinpoints the problem:

The ordering of trying to assign an interrupt vector in
assign_irq_vector_any_locked() is simply wrong if the interrupt data has a
valid node assigned. It does:

 1) Try the intersection of affinity mask and node mask
 2) Try the node mask
 3) Try the full affinity mask
 4) Try the full online mask

Obviously #2 and #3 are in the wrong order as the requested affinity
mask has to take precedence.

In the observed cases #1 failed because the affinity mask did not contain
CPUs from node 0. That made it allocate a vector from node 0, thereby
breaking affinity and emitting the misleading message.

Revert the order of #2 and #3 so the full affinity mask without the node
intersection is tried before actually affinity is broken.

If no node is assigned then only the full affinity mask and if that fails
the full online mask is tried.

commit f0c7baca180046824e07fc5f1326e83a8fd150c7 upstream.

John reported that on a RK3288 system the perf per CPU interrupts are all
affine to CPU0 and provided the analysis:

 "It looks like what happens is that because the interrupts are not per-CPU
  in the hardware, armpmu_request_irq() calls irq_force_affinity() while
  the interrupt is deactivated and then request_irq() with IRQF_PERCPU |
  IRQF_NOBALANCING.

  Now when irq_startup() runs with IRQ_STARTUP_NORMAL, it calls
  irq_setup_affinity() which returns early because IRQF_PERCPU and
  IRQF_NOBALANCING are set, leaving the interrupt on its original CPU."

This was broken by the recent commit which blocked interrupt affinity
setting in hardware before activation of the interrupt. While this works in
general, it does not work for this particular case. As contrary to the
initial analysis not all interrupt chip drivers implement an activate
callback, the safe cure is to make the deferred interrupt affinity setting
at activation time opt-in.

Implement the necessary core logic and make the two irqchip implementations
for which this is required opt-in. In hindsight this would have been the
right thing to do, but ...

[ Upstream commit e3beca48a45b5e0e6e6a4e0124276b8248dcc9bb ]

Quite some non OF/ACPI users of irqdomains allocate firmware nodes of type
IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED or IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED_ID and free them right after
creating the irqdomain. The only purpose of these FW nodes is to convey
name information. When this was introduced the core code did not store the
pointer to the node in the irqdomain. A recent change stored the firmware
node pointer in irqdomain for other reasons and missed to notice that the
usage sites which do the alloc_fwnode/create_domain/free_fwnode sequence
are broken by this. Storing a dangling pointer is dangerous itself, but in
case that the domain is destroyed later on this leads to a double free.

Remove the freeing of the firmware node after creating the irqdomain from
all affected call sites to cure this.

commit baedb87d1b53532f81b4bd0387f83b05d4f7eb9a upstream.

Setting interrupt affinity on inactive interrupts is inconsistent when
hierarchical irq domains are enabled. The core code should just store the
affinity and not call into the irq chip driver for inactive interrupts
because the chip drivers may not be in a state to handle such requests.

X86 has a hacky workaround for that but all other irq chips have not which
causes problems e.g. on GIC V3 ITS.

Instead of adding more ugly hacks all over the place, solve the problem in
the core code. If the affinity is set on an inactive interrupt then:

    - Store it in the irq descriptors affinity mask
    - Update the effective affinity to reflect that so user space has
      a consistent view
    - Don't call into the irq chip driver

This is the core equivalent of the X86 workaround and works correctly
because the affinity setting is established in the irq chip when the
interrupt is activated later on.

Note, that this is only effective when hierarchical irq domains are enabled
by the architecture. Doing it unconditionally would break legacy irq chip
implementations.

For hierarchial irq domains this works correctly as none of the drivers can
have a dependency on affinity setting in inactive state by design.

Remove the X86 workaround as it is not longer required.

On x86, CPUs are limited in the number of interrupts they can have affined
to them as they only support 256 interrupt vectors per CPU. 32 vectors are
reserved for the CPU and the kernel reserves another 22 for internal
purposes. That leaves 202 vectors for assignement to devices.

When an interrupt is set up or the affinity is changed by the kernel or the
administrator, the vector assignment code attempts to honor the requested
affinity mask. If the vector space on the CPUs in that affinity mask is
exhausted the code falls back to a wider set of CPUs and assigns a vector
on a CPU outside of the requested affinity mask silently.

While the effective affinity is reflected in the corresponding
/proc/irq/$N/effective_affinity* files the silent breakage of the requested
affinity can lead to unexpected behaviour for administrators.

Add a pr_warn() when this happens so that adminstrators get at least
informed about it in the syslog.

Pull x96 apic updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the x86 APIC interrupt handling and APIC timer:

   - Fix a long standing issue with spurious interrupts which was caused
     by the big vector management rework a few years ago. Robert Hodaszi
     provided finally enough debug data and an excellent initial failure
     analysis which allowed to understand the underlying issues.

     This contains a change to the core interrupt management code which
     is required to handle this correctly for the APIC/IO_APIC. The core
     changes are NOOPs for most architectures except ARM64. ARM64 is not
     impacted by the change as confirmed by Marc Zyngier.

   - Newer systems allow to disable the PIT clock for power saving
     causing panic in the timer interrupt delivery check of the IO/APIC
     when the HPET timer is not enabled either. While the clock could be
     turned on this would cause an endless whack a mole game to chase
     the proper register in each affected chipset.

     These systems provide the relevant frequencies for TSC, CPU and the
     local APIC timer via CPUID and/or MSRs, which allows to avoid the
     PIT/HPET based calibration. As the calibration code is the only
     usage of the legacy timers on modern systems and is skipped anyway
     when the frequencies are known already, there is no point in
     setting up the PIT and actually checking for the interrupt delivery
     via IO/APIC.

     To achieve this on a wide variety of platforms, the CPUID/MSR based
     frequency readout has been made more robust, which also allowed to
     remove quite some workarounds which turned out to be not longer
     required. Thanks to Daniel Drake for analysis, patches and
     verification"

Since the rework of the vector management, warnings about spurious
interrupts have been reported. Robert provided some more information and
did an initial analysis. The following situation leads to these warnings:

   CPU 0                  CPU 1               IO_APIC

                                              interrupt is raised
                                              sent to CPU1
			  Unable to handle
			  immediately
			  (interrupts off,
			   deep idle delay)
   mask()
   ...
   free()
     shutdown()
     synchronize_irq()
     clear_vector()
                          do_IRQ()
                            -&gt; vector is clear

Before the rework the vector entries of legacy interrupts were statically
assigned and occupied precious vector space while most of them were
unused. Due to that the above situation was handled silently because the
vector was handled and the core handler of the assigned interrupt
descriptor noticed that it is shut down and returned.

While this has been usually observed with legacy interrupts, this situation
is not limited to them. Any other interrupt source, e.g. MSI, can cause the
same issue.

After adding proper synchronization for level triggered interrupts, this
can only happen for edge triggered interrupts where the IO-APIC obviously
cannot provide information about interrupts in flight.

While the spurious warning is actually harmless in this case it worries
users and driver developers.

Handle it gracefully by marking the vector entry as VECTOR_SHUTDOWN instead
of VECTOR_UNUSED when the vector is freed up.

If that above late handling happens the spurious detector will not complain
and switch the entry to VECTOR_UNUSED. Any subsequent spurious interrupt on
that line will trigger the spurious warning as before.
