2023-06-21intel_idle: Add a "Long HLT" C1 state for the VM guest modeArjan van de Ven
intel_idle will, for the bare metal case, usually have one or more deep power states that have the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TLB_FLUSHED flag set. When a state with this flag is selected by the cpuidle framework, it will also flush the TLBs as part of entering this state. The benefit of doing this is that the kernel does not need to wake the cpu out of this deep power state just to flush the TLBs... for which the latency can be very high due to the exit latency of deep power states. In a VM guest currently, this benefit of avoiding the wakeup does not exist, while the problem (long exit latency) is even more severe. Linux will need to wake up a vCPU (causing the host to either come out of a deep C state, or the VMM to have to deschedule something else to schedule the vCPU) which can take a very long time.. adding a lot of latency to tlb flush operations (including munmap and others). To solve this, add a "Long HLT" C state to the state table for the VM guest case that has the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TLB_FLUSHED flag set. The result of that is that for long idle periods (where the VMM is likely to do things that cause large latency) the cpuidle framework will flush the TLBs (and avoid the wakeups), while for short/quick idle durations, the existing behavior is retained. Now, there is still only "hlt" available in the guest, but for long idle, the host can go to a deeper state (say C6). There is a reasonable debate one can have to what to set for the exit_latency and break even point for this "Long HLT" state. The good news is that intel_idle has these values available for the underlying CPU (even when mwait is not exposed). The solution thus is to just use the latency and break even of the deepest state from the bare metal CPU. This is under the assumption that this is a pretty reasonable estimate of what the VMM would do to cause latency. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2023-06-16intel_idle: Add support for using intel_idle in a VM guest using just hltArjan van de Ven
In a typical VM guest, the mwait instruction is not available, leaving only the 'hlt' instruction (which causes a VMEXIT to the host). So for this common case, intel_idle will detect the lack of mwait, and fail to initialize (after which another idle method would step in which will just use hlt always). Other (non-common) cases exist; the table below shows the before/after for these: +------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ | Hypervisor | Idle method before patch | Idle method after patch | | exposes | | | +============+==========================+=========================+ | nothing | default_idle fallback | intel_idle VM table | | (common) | (straight "hlt") | | +------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ | mwait | intel_idle mwait table | intel_idle mwait table | +------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ | ACPI | ACPI C1 state ("hlt") | intel_idle VM table | +------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ This is only applicable to CPUs known by intel_idle. For the bare metal case, unknown CPU models will use the ACPI tables (when available) to get estimates for latency and break even point for longer idle states. In guests, the common case is that ACPI tables are not available, but even when they are available, they can't and don't provide the latency information for the longer (mwait based) states. For this scenario (unknown CPU model), the default_idle mode (no ACPI) or ACPI C1 (ACPI avaible) will be used. By providing capability to do this with the intel_idle driver, we can do better than the fallback or ACPI table methods. While this current change only gets us to the existing behavior, later patches in this series will add new capabilities such as optimized TLB flushing. In order to do this, a simplified version of the initialization function for VM guests is created, and this will be called if the CPU is recognized, but mwait is not supported, and we're in a VM guest. One thing to note is that the max latency (and break even) of this C1 state is higher than the typical bare metal C1 state. Because hlt causes a vmexit, and the cost of vmexit + hypervisor overhead + vmenter is typically in the order of upto 5 microseconds... even if the hypervisor does not actually goes into a hardware power saving state.

2023-06-12intel_idle: clean up the (new) state_update_enter_method functionArjan van de Ven
Now that the logic for state_update_enter_method() is in its own function, the long if .. else if .. else if .. else if chain can be simplified by just returning from the function at the various places.

2023-04-27intel_idle: fix confusing messageArtem Bityutskiy
By default, all non-POLL C-states are entered with interrupts disabled. There are 2 ways to make 'intel_idle' enter C-states with interrupts enabled: 1. Mark the C-state with the CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE flag. 2. Use the force_irq_on module parameter. The former is the "proper" way of doing it, it is per-C-state and per-platform. The latter is for debugging purposes only. The problem is that intel_idle prints the "forced intel_idle_irq" message in both cases, even though the former case does not needed this message, because nothing is forced there.

2023-04-27intel_idle: clean up intel_idle_init_cstates_icpu()Artem Bityutskiy
The intel_idle_init_cstates_icpu() function includes a loop that iterates over every C-state. Inside the loop, the same C-state data is referenced 2 ways: 1. as cpuidle_state_table[cstate] 2. as drv->states[drv->state_count] (but it is a copy of #1, not the same object). Make the code be more consistent and easier to read by using only the 2nd way. So the code structure would be as follows: 1. Use cpuidle_state_table[cstate] 2. Copy cpuidle_state_table[cstate] to drv->states[drv->state_count] 3. Use only drv->states[drv->state_count] from this point. Note, this change introduces a checkpatch.pl warning (too long line), but it will be addressed in the next patch.

2022-07-25intel_idle: make SPR C1 and C1E be independentArtem Bityutskiy
This patch partially reverts the changes made by the following commit: da0e58c038e6 intel_idle: add 'preferred_cstates' module argument As that commit describes, on early Sapphire Rapids Xeon platforms the C1 and C1E states were mutually exclusive, so that users could only have either C1 and C6, or C1E and C6. However, Intel firmware engineers managed to remove this limitation and make C1 and C1E to be completely independent, just like on previous Xeon platforms. Therefore, this patch: * Removes commentary describing the old, and now non-existing SPR C1E limitation. * Marks SPR C1E as available by default. * Removes the 'preferred_cstates' parameter handling for SPR. Both C1 and C1E will be available regardless of 'preferred_cstates' value. We expect that all SPR systems are shipping with new firmware, which includes the C1/C1E improvement.

2022-07-25intel_idle: Fix false positive RCU splats due to incorrect hardirqs stateWaiman Long
Commit 32d4fd5751ea ("cpuidle,intel_idle: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE") uses raw_local_irq_enable/local_irq_disable() around call to __intel_idle() in intel_idle_irq(). With interrupt enabled, timer tick interrupt can happen and a subsequently call to __do_softirq() may change the lockdep hardirqs state of a debug kernel back to 'on'. This will result in a mismatch between the cpu hardirqs state (off) and the lockdep hardirqs state (on) causing a number of false positive "WARNING: suspicious RCU usage" splats. Fix that by using local_irq_disable() to disable interrupt in intel_idle_irq().

2022-06-27intel_idle: Disable IBRS during long idlePeter Zijlstra
Having IBRS enabled while the SMT sibling is idle unnecessarily slows down the running sibling. OTOH, disabling IBRS around idle takes two MSR writes, which will increase the idle latency. Therefore, only disable IBRS around deeper idle states. Shallow idle states are bounded by the tick in duration, since NOHZ is not allowed for them by virtue of their short target residency. Only do this for mwait-driven idle, since that keeps interrupts disabled across idle, which makes disabling IBRS vs IRQ-entry a non-issue. Note: C6 is a random threshold, most importantly C1 probably shouldn't disable IBRS, benchmarking needed.

Similar to SPR, the C1 and C1E states on ADL are mutually exclusive. Only one of them can be enabled at a time. But contrast to SPR, which usually has a strong latency requirement as a Xeon processor, C1E is preferred on ADL for better energy efficiency. Add custom C-state tables for ADL with both C1 and C1E, and 1. Enable the "C1E promotion" bit in MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL and mark C1 with the CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE flag, so C1 is not available by default. 2. Add support for the "preferred_cstates" module parameter, so that users can choose to use C1 instead of C1E by booting with "intel_idle.preferred_cstates=2". Separate custom C-state tables are introduced for the ADL mobile and desktop processors, because of the exit latency differences between these two variants, especially with respect to PC10.

The Sapphire Rapids (SPR) C6 optimization was added to the end of the 'spr_idle_state_table_update()' function. However, the function has a 'return' which may happen before the optimization has a chance to run. And this may prevent the optimization from happening. This is an unlikely scenario, but possible if user boots with, say, the 'intel_idle.preferred_cstates=6' kernel boot option.

2022-04-27intel_idle: Fix the 'preferred_cstates' module parameterArtem Bityutskiy
Problem description. When user boots kernel up with the 'intel_idle.preferred_cstates=4' option, we enable C1E and disable C1 states on Sapphire Rapids Xeon (SPR). In order for C1E to work on SPR, we have to enable the C1E promotion bit on all CPUs. However, we enable it only on one CPU. Fix description. The 'intel_idle' driver already has the infrastructure for disabling C1E promotion on every CPU. This patch uses the same infrastructure for enabling C1E promotion on every CPU. It changes the boolean 'disable_promotion_to_c1e' variable to a tri-state 'c1e_promotion' variable. Tested on a 2-socket SPR system. I verified the following combinations: * C1E promotion enabled and disabled in BIOS. * Booted with and without the 'intel_idle.preferred_cstates=4' kernel argument. In all 4 cases C1E promotion was correctly set on all CPUs. Also tested on an old Broadwell system, just to make sure it does not cause a regression. C1E promotion was correctly disabled on that system, both C1 and C1E were exposed (as expected).

2022-03-04intel_idle: add 'preferred_cstates' module argumentArtem Bityutskiy
On Sapphire Rapids Xeon (SPR) the C1 and C1E states are basically mutually exclusive - only one of them can be enabled. By default, 'intel_idle' driver enables C1 and disables C1E. However, some users prefer to use C1E instead of C1, because it saves more energy. This patch adds a new module parameter ('preferred_cstates') for enabling C1E and disabling C1. Here is the idea behind it. 1. This option has effect only for "mutually exclusive" C-states like C1 and C1E on SPR. 2. It does not have any effect on independent C-states, which do not require other C-states to be disabled (most states on most platforms as of today). 3. For mutually exclusive C-states, the 'intel_idle' driver always has a reasonable default, such as enabling C1 on SPR by default. On other platforms, the default may be different. 4. Users can override the default using the 'preferred_cstates' parameter. 5. The parameter accepts the preferred C-states bit-mask, similarly to the existing 'states_off' parameter. 6. This parameter is not limited to C1/C1E, and leaves room for supporting other mutually exclusive C-states, if they come in the future. Today 'intel_idle' can only be compiled-in, which means that on SPR, in order to disable C1 and enable C1E, users should boot with the following kernel argument: intel_idle.preferred_cstates=4 Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2022-03-04intel_idle: add SPR supportArtem Bityutskiy
Add Sapphire Rapids Xeon support. Up until very recently, the C1 and C1E C-states were independent, but this has changed in some new chips, including Sapphire Rapids Xeon (SPR). In these chips the C1 and C1E states cannot be enabled at the same time. The "C1E promotion" bit in 'MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL' also has its semantics changed a bit. Here are the C1, C1E, and "C1E promotion" bit rules on Xeons before SPR. 1. If C1E promotion bit is disabled. a. C1 requests end up with C1 C-state. b. C1E requests end up with C1E C-state. 2. If C1E promotion bit is enabled. a. C1 requests end up with C1E C-state. b. C1E requests end up with C1E C-state. Here are the C1, C1E, and "C1E promotion" bit rules on Sapphire Rapids Xeon. 1. If C1E promotion bit is disabled. a. C1 requests end up with C1 C-state. b. C1E requests end up with C1 C-state. 2. If C1E promotion bit is enabled. a. C1 requests end up with C1E C-state. b. C1E requests end up with C1E C-state. Before SPR Xeon, the 'intel_idle' driver was disabling C1E promotion and was exposing C1 and C1E as independent C-states. But on SPR, C1 and C1E cannot be enabled at the same time. This patch adds both C1 and C1E states. However, C1E is marked as with the "CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE" flag, which means that in won't be registered by default. The C1E promotion bit will be cleared, which means that by default only C1 and C6 will be registered on SPR. The next patch will add an option for enabling C1E and disabling C1 on SPR.

2021-09-24intel_idle: enable interrupts before C1 on XeonsArtem Bityutskiy
Enable local interrupts before requesting C1 on the last two generations of Intel Xeon platforms: Sky Lake, Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Ice Lake. This decreases average C1 interrupt latency by about 5-10%, as measured with the 'wult' tool. The '->enter()' function of the driver enters C-states with local interrupts disabled by executing the 'monitor' and 'mwait' pair of instructions. If an interrupt happens, the CPU exits the C-state and continues executing instructions after 'mwait'. It does not jump to the interrupt handler, because local interrupts are disabled. The cpuidle subsystem enables interrupts a bit later, after doing some housekeeping. With this patch, we enable local interrupts before requesting C1. In this case, if the CPU wakes up because of an interrupt, it will jump to the interrupt handler right away. The cpuidle housekeeping will be done after the pending interrupt(s) are handled. Enabling interrupts before entering a C-state has measurable impact for faster C-states, like C1. Deeper, but slower C-states like C6 do not really benefit from this sort of change, because their latency is a lot higher comparing to the delay added by cpuidle housekeeping. This change was also tested with cyclictest and dbench. In case of Ice Lake, the average cyclictest latency decreased by 5.1%, and the average 'dbench' throughput increased by about 0.8%. Both tests were run for 4 hours with only C1 enabled (all other idle states, including 'POLL', were disabled). CPU frequency was pinned to HFM, and uncore frequency was pinned to the maximum value. The other platforms had similar single-digit percentage improvements. It is worth noting that this patch affects 'cpuidle' statistics a tiny bit. Before this patch, C1 residency did not include the interrupt handling time, but with this patch, it will include it. This is similar to what happens in case of the 'POLL' state, which also runs with interrupts enabled.

2021-06-09intel_idle: Adjust the SKX C6 parameters if PC6 is disabledChen Yu
Because cpuidle assumes worst-case C-state parameters, PC6 parameters are used for describing C6, which is worst-case for requesting CC6. When PC6 is enabled, this is appropriate. But if PC6 is disabled in the BIOS, the exit latency and target residency should be adjusted accordingly. Exit latency: Previously the C6 exit latency was measured as the PC6 exit latency. With PC6 disabled, the C6 exit latency should be the one of CC6. Target residency: With PC6 disabled, the idle duration within [CC6, PC6) would make the idle governor choose C1E over C6. This would cause low energy-efficiency. We should lower the bar to request C6 when PC6 is disabled. To fill this gap, check if PC6 is disabled in the BIOS in the MSR_PKG_CST_CONFIG_CONTROL(0xe2) register. If so, use the CC6 exit latency for C6 and set target_residency to 3 times of the new exit latency. [This is consistent with how intel_idle driver uses _CST to calculate the target_residency.] As a result, the OS would be more likely to choose C6 over C1E when PC6 is disabled, which is reasonable, because if C6 is enabled, it implies that the user cares about energy, so choosing C6 more frequently makes sense. The new CC6 exit latency of 92us was measured with wult[1] on SKX via NIC wakeup as the 99.99th percentile. Also CLX and CPX both have the same CPU model number as SkX, but their CC6 exit latencies are similar to the SKX one, 96us and 89us respectively, so reuse the SKX value for them. There is a concern that it might be better to use a more generic approach instead of optimizing every platform. However, if the required code complexity and different PC6 bit interpretation on different platforms are taken into account, tuning the code per platform seems to be an acceptable tradeoff.

The C6 C-state is supported only by some SnowRidge revisions, so add a C-state table commentary about this. On SnowRidge, C6 support is enumerated via the usual mechanism: "mwait" leaf of the "cpuid" instruction. The 'intel_idle' driver does check this leaf, so even though C6 is present in the table, the driver will only use it if the CPU does support it.

2020-10-27intel_idle: Fix max_cstate for processor models without C-state tablesChen Yu
Currently intel_idle driver gets the c-state information from ACPI _CST if the processor model is not recognized by it. However the c-state in _CST starts with index 1 which is different from the index in intel_idle driver's internal c-state table. While intel_idle_max_cstate_reached() was previously introduced to deal with intel_idle driver's internal c-state table, re-using this function directly on _CST is incorrect. Fix this by subtracting 1 from the index when checking max_cstate in the _CST case. For example, append intel_idle.max_cstate=1 in boot command line, Before the patch: grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name POLL After the patch: grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state0/name:POLL /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state1/name:C1_ACPI Fixes: 18734958e9bf ("intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST for processor models without C-state tables") Reported-by: Pengfei Xu <pengfei.xu@intel.com> Cc: 5.6+ <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 5.6+ Signed-off-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> [ rjw: Changelog edits ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2020-10-16intel_idle: Ignore _CST if control cannot be taken from the platformMel Gorman
e6d4f08a6776 ("intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST on server systems") avoids enabling c-states that have been disabled by the platform with the exception of C1E. Unfortunately, BIOS implementations are not always consistent in terms of how capabilities are advertised and control cannot always be handed over. If control cannot be handed over then intel_idle reports that "ACPI _CST not found or not usable" but does not clear acpi_state_table.count meaning the information is still partially used. This patch ignores ACPI information if CST control cannot be requested from the platform. This was only observed on a number of Haswell platforms that had identical CPUs but not identical BIOS versions. While this problem may be rare overall, 24 separate test cases bisected to this specific commit across 4 separate test machines and is worth addressing. If the situation occurs, the kernel behaves as it did before commit e6d4f08a6776 and uses any c-states that are discovered. The affected test cases were all ones that involved a small number of processes -- exec microbenchmark, pipe microbenchmark, git test suite, netperf, tbench with one client and system call microbenchmark. Each case benefits from being able to use turboboost which is prevented if the lower c-states are unavailable. This may mask real regressions specific to older hardware so it is worth addressing.
