In our production environment, after removing monitor groups, those
unused RMIDs get stuck in the limbo list forever because their
llc_occupancy is always larger than the threshold. But the unused RMIDs
can be successfully freed by turning up the threshold.
In order to know how much the threshold should be, perf can be used to
acquire the llc_occupancy of RMIDs in each rdt domain.
Instead of using perf tool to track llc_occupancy and filter the log
manually, it is more convenient for users to use tracepoint to do this
work. So add a new tracepoint that shows the llc_occupancy of busy RMIDs
when scanning the limbo list.

The memory bandwidth software controller uses 2^20 units rather than
10^6. See mbm_bw_count() which computes bandwidth using the "SZ_1M"
Linux define for 0x00100000.
Update the documentation to use MiB when describing this feature.
It's too late to fix the mount option "mba_MBps" as that is now an

There's a new conflict with Linus's upstream tree, because
in the following merge conflict resolution in <asm/coco.h>:
38b334fc767e Merge tag 'x86_sev_for_v6.9_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Linus has resolved the conflicting placement of 'cc_mask' better
than the original commit:
1c811d403afd x86/sev: Fix position dependent variable references in startup code
... which was also done by an internal merge resolution:
2e5fc4786b7a Merge branch 'x86/sev' into x86/boot, to resolve conflicts and to pick up dependent tree
But Linus is right in 38b334fc767e, the 'cc_mask' declaration is sufficient
within the #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CC_PLATFORM block.
So instead of forcing Linus to do the same resolution again, merge in Linus's
tree and follow his conflict resolution.

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options

Pull x86 FRED support from Thomas Gleixner:
"Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED).
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most
of the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved
in nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested
exceptions as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on
each entry which requires a massive effort in the low level entry
of #NMI code to handle this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user
which makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs
to be especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which
is a problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a
stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion
on large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save
exception cause registers. This ensures that the meta information
for each exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra
complexity of preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS
BASE handling which is required to establish kernel context for
per CPU variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the
return from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design
because it uses a central entry points for kernel and user space
and the CPUstores the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt,
syscall) on the entry stack along with the vector number. The
entry code has to demultiplex this information, but this removes
the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have
information pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths
like context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the
extended stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and
therefore have no impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are no outstanding problems"

A relocatable kernel will relocate itself to pref_address if it is
loaded below pref_address. This means a booted kernel may be relocating
itself to an area with reserved memory on modern systems, potentially
clobbering arbitrary data that may be important to the system.
This is often the case, as the default value of PHYSICAL_START is
0x1000000 and kernels are typically loaded at 0x100000 or above by
bootloaders like iPXE or kexec. GRUB behaves like the approach
implemented here.
Also fixes the documentation around pref_address and PHYSICAL_START to
be accurate.

Pull x86 TDX updates from Dave Hansen:
"This contains the initial support for host-side TDX support so that
KVM can run TDX-protected guests. This does not include the actual
KVM-side support which will come from the KVM folks. The TDX host
interactions with kexec also needs to be ironed out before this is
ready for prime time, so this code is currently Kconfig'd off when
kexec is on.
The majority of the code here is the kernel telling the TDX module
which memory to protect and handing some additional memory over to it
to use to store TDX module metadata. That sounds pretty simple, but
the TDX architecture is rather flexible and it takes quite a bit of
back-and-forth to say, "just protect all memory, please."
There is also some code tacked on near the end of the series to handle
a hardware erratum. The erratum can make software bugs such as a
kernel write to TDX-protected memory cause a machine check and
masquerade as a real hardware failure. The erratum handling watches
out for these and tries to provide nicer user errors"

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).
This also makes the code shorter.
This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

Pull x86 core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have
a model ID less than 4.
The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB correctly
implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By
chance a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes
the hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask
is never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core
to deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or
even non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned
long or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die IDs.
That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is subject
to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology
management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility.

Other architectures do not use "RMID". Use the name mon_hw_id to refer
to "RMID" in an effort to keep the naming generic.

The topology IDs which identify the LLC and L2 domains clearly belong to
the per CPU topology information.
Move them into cpuinfo_x86::cpuinfo_topo and get rid of the extra per CPU
data and the related exports.
This also paves the way to do proper topology evaluation during early boot
because it removes the only per CPU dependency for that.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"
