x86/vector: Replace IRQ_MOVE_CLEANUP_VECTOR with a timer callback

The left overs of a moved interrupt are cleaned up once the interrupt is
raised on the new target CPU. Keeping the vector valid on the original
target CPU guarantees that there can't be an interrupt lost if the affinity
change races with an concurrent interrupt from the device.

This cleanup utilizes the lowest priority interrupt vector for this
cleanup, which makes sure that in the unlikely case when the to be cleaned
up interrupt is pending in the local APICs IRR the cleanup vector does not
live lock.

But there is no real reason to use an interrupt vector for cleaning up the
leftovers of a moved interrupt. It's not a high performance operation. The
only requirement is that it happens on the original target CPU.

Convert it to use a timer instead and adjust the code accordingly.

x86/irq: Remove unused vectors defines

UV_BAU_MESSAGE is defined but not used anywhere in the kernel. Presumably
this is a stale vector number that can be reclaimed.

MCE_VECTOR is not an actual vector: #MC is an exception, not an interrupt
vector, and as such is correctly described as X86_TRAP_MC. MCE_VECTOR is
not used anywhere is the kernel.

Note that NMI_VECTOR *is* used; specifically it is the vector number
programmed into the APIC LVT when an NMI interrupt is configured. At
the moment it is always numerically identical to X86_TRAP_NMI, that is
not necessarily going to be the case indefinitely.

Drivers: hv: vmbus: Implement Direct Mode for stimer0

The 2016 version of Hyper-V offers the option to operate the guest VM
per-vcpu stimer's in Direct Mode, which means the timer interupts on its
own vector rather than queueing a VMbus message. Direct Mode reduces
timer processing overhead in both the hypervisor and the guest, and
avoids having timer interrupts pollute the VMbus interrupt stream for
the synthetic NIC and storage. This patch enables Direct Mode by
default on stimer0 when running on a version of Hyper-V that supports
it.

In prep for coming support of Hyper-V on ARM64, the arch independent
portion of the code contains calls to routines that will be populated
on ARM64 but are not needed and do nothing on x86.

x86/hyperv: Reenlightenment notifications support

Hyper-V supports Live Migration notification. This is supposed to be used
in conjunction with TSC emulation: when a VM is migrated to a host with
different TSC frequency for some short period the host emulates the
accesses to TSC and sends an interrupt to notify about the event. When the
guest is done updating everything it can disable TSC emulation and
everything will start working fast again.

These notifications weren't required until now as Hyper-V guests are not
supposed to use TSC as a clocksource: in Linux the TSC is even marked as
unstable on boot. Guests normally use 'tsc page' clocksource and host
updates its values on migrations automatically.

Things change when with nested virtualization: even when the PV
clocksources (kvm-clock or tsc page) are passed through to the nested
guests the TSC frequency and frequency changes need to be know..

Hyper-V Top Level Functional Specification (as of v5.0b) wrongly specifies
EAX:BIT(12) of CPUID:0x40000009 as the feature identification bit. The
right one to check is EAX:BIT(13) of CPUID:0x40000003. I was assured that
the fix in on the way.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

x86/vector: Handle managed interrupts proper

Managed interrupts need to reserve interrupt vectors permanently, but as
long as the interrupt is deactivated, the vector should not be active.

Reserve a new system vector, which can be used to initially initialize
MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC entries. In that situation the interrupts are disabled in
the corresponding MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC devices. So the vector should never be
sent to any CPU.

When the managed interrupt is started up, a real vector is assigned from
the managed vector space and configured in MSI/DMAR/IOAPIC.

This allows a clear separation of inactive and active modes and simplifies
the final decisions whether the global vector space is sufficient for CPU
offline operations.

The vector space can be reserved even on offline CPUs and will survive CPU
offline/online operations.

x86/mce/amd: Introduce deferred error interrupt handler

Deferred errors indicate error conditions that were not corrected, but
require no action from S/W (or action is optional).These errors provide
info about a latent UC MCE that can occur when a poisoned data is
consumed by the processor.

Processors that report these errors can be configured to generate APIC
interrupts to notify OS about the error.

Provide an interrupt handler in this patch so that OS can catch these
errors as and when they happen. Currently, we simply log the errors and
exit the handler as S/W action is not mandated.

x86: Avoid building unused IRQ entry stubs

When X86_LOCAL_APIC (i.e. unconditionally on x86-64),
first_system_vector will never end up being higher than
LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR (0xef), and hence building stubs for vectors
0xef...0xff is pointlessly reducing code density. Deal with this at
build time already.

Taking into consideration that X86_64 implies X86_LOCAL_APIC, also
simplify (and hence make easier to read and more consistent with the
change done here) some #if-s in arch/x86/kernel/irqinit.c.

While we could further improve the packing of the IRQ entry stubs (the
four ones now left in the last set could be fit into the four padding
bytes each of the final four sets have) this doesn't seem to provide
any real benefit: Both irq_entries_start and common_interrupt getting
cache line aligned, eliminating the 30th set would just produce 32
bytes of padding between the 29th and common_interrupt.

KVM: VMX: Register a new IPI for posted interrupt

Posted Interrupt feature requires a special IPI to deliver posted interrupt
to guest. And it should has a high priority so the interrupt will not be
blocked by others.
Normally, the posted interrupt will be consumed by vcpu if target vcpu is
running and transparent to OS. But in some cases, the interrupt will arrive
when target vcpu is scheduled out. And host will see it. So we need to
register a dump handler to handle it.

x86/irq: Standardize on CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y

Sparseirq got introduced in v2.6.28 and Thomas did a huge cleanup
around v2.6.38 that eliminated basically all disadvantages
of it.

So we can remove non-sparseirq support now and simplify
our IRQ degrees of freedom a bit.

x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add vsyscall= parameter

There are three choices:

vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the
corresponding syscalls.

vsyscall=emulate (default)

x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add vsyscall= parameter

There are three choices:

vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the
corresponding syscalls.

vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction
fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of
the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except
that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about
what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read
that code.

vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

x86, mce: Replace MCE_SELF_VECTOR by irq_work

The MCE handler uses a special vector for self IPI to invoke
post-emergency processing in an interrupt context, e.g. call an
NMI-unsafe function, wakeup loggers, schedule time-consuming work for
recovery, etc.

This mechanism is now generalized by the following commit:

So change to use provided generic mechanism.
