<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 18fb053f9b827bd98cfc64f2a35df8ab19745a1d ]

There are comments in processor-cyrix.h advising you to _not_ make calls
using the deprecated macros in this style:

  setCx86_old(CX86_CCR4, getCx86_old(CX86_CCR4) | 0x80);

This is because it expands the macro into a non-functioning calling
sequence. The calling order must be:

  outb(CX86_CCR2, 0x22);
  inb(0x23);

From the comments:

 * When using the old macros a line like
 *   setCx86(CX86_CCR2, getCx86(CX86_CCR2) | 0x88);
 * gets expanded to:
 *  do {
 *    outb((CX86_CCR2), 0x22);
 *    outb((({
 *        outb((CX86_CCR2), 0x22);
 *        inb(0x23);
 *    }) | 0x88), 0x23);
 *  } while (0);

The new macros fix this problem, so use them instead. Tested on an
actual Geode processor.

<title>perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Node ID mask</title>

commit 9e63a7894fd302082cf3627fe90844421a6cbe7f upstream.

Some PCI uncore PMUs cannot be registered on an 8-socket system (HPE
Superdome Flex).

To understand which Socket the PCI uncore PMUs belongs to, perf retrieves
the local Node ID of the uncore device from CPUNODEID(0xC0) of the PCI
configuration space, and the mapping between Socket ID and Node ID from
GIDNIDMAP(0xD4). The Socket ID can be calculated accordingly.

The local Node ID is only available at bit 2:0, but current code doesn't
mask it. If a BIOS doesn't clear the rest of the bits, an incorrect Node ID
will be fetched.

Filter the Node ID by adding a mask.

commit 32043fa065b51e0b1433e48d118821c71b5cd65d upstream.

Currently the copy_to_user of data in the gentry struct is copying
uninitiaized data in field _pad from the stack to userspace.

Fix this by explicitly memset'ing gentry to zero, this also will zero any
compiler added padding fields that may be in struct (currently there are
none).

<title>perf/x86/intel: Fix bug for "cycles:p" and "cycles:pp" on SLM</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 33636732dcd7cc738a5913bb730d663c6b03c8fb ]

cycles:p and cycles:pp do not work on SLM since commit:

   86a04461a99f ("perf/x86: Revamp PEBS event selection")

UOPS_RETIRED.ALL is not a PEBS capable event, so it should not be used
to count cycle number.

Actually SLM calls intel_pebs_aliases_core2() which uses INST_RETIRED.ANY_P
to count the number of cycles. It's a PEBS capable event. But inv and
cmask must be set to count cycles.

Considering SLM allows all events as PEBS with no flags, only
INST_RETIRED.ANY_P, inv=1, cmask=16 needs to handled specially.

<title>perf/rapl: Fix sysfs_show() initialization for RAPL PMU</title>

<id>urn:sha1:34215ab7b93379221ad4fd359d13a330afef5147</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 433678bdc6ed39f053c55da96b51de5bf0aeebb1 ]

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
sysfs_show() routine for the RAPL PMU.

The current code was wrongly relying on the EVENT_ATTR_STR()
macro which uses the events_sysfs_show() function in the x86
PMU code. That function itself was relying on the x86_pmu data
structure. Yet RAPL and the core PMU (x86_pmu) have nothing to
do with each other. They should therefore not interact with
each other.

The x86_pmu structure is initialized at boot time based on
the host CPU model. When the host CPU is not supported, the
x86_pmu remains uninitialized and some of the callbacks it
contains are NULL.

The false dependency with x86_pmu could potentially cause crashes
in case the x86_pmu is not initialized while the RAPL PMU is. This
may, for instance, be the case in virtualized environments.

This patch fixes the problem by using a private sysfs_show()
routine for exporting the RAPL PMU events.

commit fbdb328c6bae0a7c78d75734a738b66b86dffc96 upstream.

commit b3b7c4795c ("x86/MCE: Serialize sysfs changes") introduced a min
interval limitation when setting the check interval for polled MCEs.
However, the logic is that 0 disables polling for corrected MCEs, see
Documentation/x86/x86_64/machinecheck. The limitation prevents disabling.

Remove this limitation and allow the value 0 to disable polling again.

Make kernel print the correct number of TLB entries on Intel Xeon Phi 7210
(and others)

Before:
[ 0.320005] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0, 1GB 0
After:
[ 0.320005] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 256, 2MB 128, 4MB 128, 1GB 16

The entries do exist in the official Intel SMD but the type column there is
incorrect (states "Cache" where it should read "TLB"), but the entries for
the values 0x6B, 0x6C and 0x6D are correctly described as 'Data TLB'.

commit b3b7c4795ccab5be71f080774c45bbbcc75c2aaf upstream.

The check_interval file in

  /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck&lt;cpu number&gt;

directory is a global timer value for MCE polling. If it is changed by one
CPU, mce_restart() broadcasts the event to other CPUs to delete and restart
the MCE polling timer and __mcheck_cpu_init_timer() reinitializes the
mce_timer variable.

If more than one CPU writes a specific value to the check_interval file
concurrently, mce_timer is not protected from such concurrent accesses and
all kinds of explosions happen. Since only root can write to those sysfs
variables, the issue is not a big deal security-wise.

However, concurrent writes to these configuration variables is void of
reason so the proper thing to do is to serialize the access with a mutex.

Boris:

 - Make store_int_with_restart() use device_store_ulong() to filter out
   negative intervals
 - Limit min interval to 1 second
 - Correct locking
 - Massage commit message
