[PATCH v6 01/11] x86/apic/x2apic: Fix parallel handling of cluster_mask
From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

For each CPU being brought up, the alloc_clustermask() function
allocates a new struct cluster_mask just in case it's needed. Then the
target CPU actually runs, and in init_x2apic_ldr() it either uses a
cluster_mask from a previous CPU in the same cluster, or consumes the
"spare" one and sets the global pointer to NULL.

That isn't going to parallelise stunningly well.

Ditch the global variable, let alloc_clustermask() install the struct
*directly* in the per_cpu data for the CPU being brought up. As an
optimisation, actually make it do so for *all* present CPUs in the same
cluster, which means only one iteration over for_each_present_cpu()
instead of doing so repeatedly, once for each CPU.

Now, in fact, there's no point in the 'node' or 'clusterid' members of
the struct cluster_mask, so just kill it and use struct cpumask instead.

This was a harmless "bug" while CPU bringup wasn't actually happening in
parallel. It's about to become less harmless...

Just to be clear. There is no bug in todays code and therefore this:

> Fixes: 023a611748fd5 ("x86/apic/x2apic: Simplify cluster management")

tag is unjustified. It'll just cause the stable robots to backport it
for no reason.

How is this SOB chain correct? It's unclear to me how Paul got involved
here, but let's assume he handed the patch over to you, then this still
lacks a SOB from you.

While I agree that changing an in use mask pointer would be fatal, I
really have to ask why this code would be invoked on a partially
initialized cluster at all and why that would be correct.

if (WARN_ON_ONCE(*cpu_cmsk == cmsk))
return;
BUG_ON(*cpu_mask);

if at all. But of course that falls over with the way how this code is
invoked below.

TBH. The logic of this code is anything but obvious. Something like the
uncompiled below perhaps?

Looks sane to me. I'll tweak the comments a bit and give it a spin;

So... if this CPU was *present* at boot time (and if any other CPU in
this cluster was present), it will already have a cluster_mask.

Which means we get here in two cases:

• This CPU wasn't actually present (was just 'possible') at boot time.
(Is that actually a thing that happens?)

• This CPU was present but no other CPU in this cluster was actually
brought up at boot time so the cluster_mask wasn't allocated.

The code looks right, I don't grok the comment about partial clusters
and virtualization, and would have worded it something along the above
lines?

As I get my head around that, I think the code needs to change too.
What if we *unplug* the only CPU in a cluster (present?possible), then
add a new one in the same cluster? The new one would get a new
cluster_mask. Which is kind of OK for now but then if we re-add the
original CPU it'd continue to use its old cluster_mask.

Now, that's kind of weird if it's physical CPUs because that cluster is
within a given chip, isn't it? But with virtualization maybe that's
something that could happen, and it doesn't hurt to be completely safe
by using for_each_possible_cpu() instead?

Now looks like this:


/*
* On post boot hotplug for a CPU which was not present at boot time,
* iterate over all possible CPUs (even those which are not present
* any more) to find any existing cluster mask.

It happens on systems which support physical hotplug and AFAIK also
virtualization has support for "physical" hotplug.

The same is true the other way round on phsyical unplug. Then the CPU
is removed from present but is still set in possible.

Correct.

My worry was that virtualization might be able to phsyically hotplug
partial clusters. Whether that's possible I don't know, but in context
of virtualization I always assume the worst case.

Yes. Virtualization does aweful things....

Thanks. I've reworked and I think I've caught everything. Didn't want
to elide the credit where Usama had done some of the forward-porting
work, so I've left those notes and the SoB intact on those patches, on
the assumption that they will be reposting the series after proper
testing on hardware again anyway (I'm only spawning it in qemu right
now).

https://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/linux.git/shortlog/refs/heads/parallel-6.2-rc7

The only real code change other than what we've discussed here is to
implement what we talked about for CPUID 0xb vs. 0x1 etc:


/*
* We can do 64-bit AP bringup in parallel if the CPU reports
* its APIC ID in CPUID (either leaf 0x0B if we need the full
* APIC ID in X2APIC mode, or leaf 0x01 if 8 bits are
* sufficient). Otherwise it's too hard. And not for SEV-ES
* guests because they can't use CPUID that early.
*/
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_32) || boot_cpu_data.cpuid_level < 1 ||
(x2apic_mode && boot_cpu_data.cpuid_level < 0xb) ||
cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_GUEST_STATE_ENCRYPT))
do_parallel_bringup = false;

unsigned int eax, ebx, ecx, edx;

/*
