x86/resctrl: Split struct rdt_resource

resctrl is the defacto Linux ABI for SoC resource partitioning features.

To support it on another architecture, it needs to be abstracted from
the features provided by Intel RDT and AMD PQoS, and moved to /fs/.
struct rdt_resource contains a mix of architecture private details
and properties of the filesystem interface user-space uses.

Start by splitting struct rdt_resource, into an architecture private
'hw' struct, which contains the common resctrl structure that would be
used by any architecture. The foreach helpers are most commonly used by
the filesystem code, and should return the common resctrl structure.
for_each_rdt_resource() is changed to walk the common structure in its
parent arch private structure.

Move as much of the structure as possible into the common structure
in the core code's header file. The x86 hardware accessors remain
part of the architecture private code, as do num_closid, mon_scale
and mbm_width.

mon_scale and mbm_width are used to detect overflow of the hardware
counters, and convert them from their native size to bytes. Any
cross-architecture abstraction should be in terms of bytes, making
these properties private.

The hardware's num_closid is kept in the private structure to force the
filesystem code to use a helper to access it. MPAM would return a single
value for the system, regardless of the resource. Using the helper
prevents this field from being confused with the version of num_closid
that is being exposed to user-space (added in a later patch).

After this split, filesystem code touching a 'hw' struct indicates
where an abstraction is needed.

Splitting this structure only moves types around, and should not lead
to any change in behaviour.

x86/resctrl: Use task_curr() instead of task_struct->on_cpu to prevent unnecessary IPI

James reported in [1] that there could be two tasks running on the same CPU
with task_struct->on_cpu set. Using task_struct->on_cpu as a test if a task
is running on a CPU may thus match the old task for a CPU while the
scheduler is running and IPI it unnecessarily.

task_curr() is the correct helper to use. While doing so move the #ifdef
check of the CONFIG_SMP symbol to be a C conditional used to determine
if this helper should be used to ensure the code is always checked for
correctness by the compiler.

x86/resctrl: Use an IPI instead of task_work_add() to update PQR_ASSOC MSR

Currently, when moving a task to a resource group the PQR_ASSOC MSR is
updated with the new closid and rmid in an added task callback. If the
task is running, the work is run as soon as possible. If the task is not
running, the work is executed later in the kernel exit path when the
kernel returns to the task again.

Updating the PQR_ASSOC MSR as soon as possible on the CPU a moved task
is running is the right thing to do. Queueing work for a task that is
not running is unnecessary (the PQR_ASSOC MSR is already updated when
the task is scheduled in) and causing system resource waste with the way
in which it is implemented: Work to update the PQR_ASSOC register is
queued every time the user writes a task id to the "tasks" file, even if
the task already belongs to the resource group.

This could result in multiple pending work items associated with a
single task even if they are all identical and even though only a single
update with most recent values is needed. Specifically, even if a task
is moved between different resource groups while it is sleeping then it
is only the last move that is relevant but yet a work item is queued
during each move.

This unnecessary queueing of work items could result in significant
system resource waste, especially on tasks sleeping for a long time.
For example, as demonstrated by Shakeel Butt in [1] writing the same
task id to the "tasks" file can quickly consume significant memory. The
same problem (wasted system resources) occurs when moving a task between
different resource groups.

As pointed out by Valentin Schneider in [2] there is an additional issue
with the way in which the queueing of work is done in that the task_struct
update is currently done after the work is queued, resulting in a race with
the register update possibly done before the data needed by the update is
available.

To solve these issues, update the PQR_ASSOC MSR in a synchronous way
right after the new closid and rmid are ready during the task movement,
only if the task is running. If a moved task is not running nothing
is done since the PQR_ASSOC MSR will be updated next time the task is
scheduled. This is the same way used to update the register when tasks
are moved as part of resource group removal.

x86/resctrl: Fix AMD L3 QOS CDP enable/disable

When the AMD QoS feature CDP (code and data prioritization) is enabled
or disabled, the CDP bit in MSR 0000_0C81 is written on one of the CPUs
in an L3 domain (core complex). That is not correct - the CDP bit needs
to be updated on all the logical CPUs in the domain.

This was not spelled out clearly in the spec earlier. The specification
has been updated and the updated document, "AMD64 Technology Platform
Quality of Service Extensions Publication # 56375 Revision: 1.02 Issue

x86/resctrl: Add necessary kernfs_put() calls to prevent refcount leak

On resource group creation via a mkdir an extra kernfs_node reference is
obtained by kernfs_get() to ensure that the rdtgroup structure remains
accessible for the rdtgroup_kn_unlock() calls where it is removed on
deletion. Currently the extra kernfs_node reference count is only
dropped by kernfs_put() in rdtgroup_kn_unlock() while the rdtgroup
structure is removed in a few other locations that lack the matching
reference drop.

In call paths of rmdir and umount, when a control group is removed,
kernfs_remove() is called to remove the whole kernfs nodes tree of the
control group (including the kernfs nodes trees of all child monitoring
groups), and then rdtgroup structure is freed by kfree(). The rdtgroup
structures of all child monitoring groups under the control group are
freed by kfree() in free_all_child_rdtgrp().

Before calling kfree() to free the rdtgroup structures, the kernfs node
of the control group itself as well as the kernfs nodes of all child
monitoring groups still take the extra references which will never be
dropped to 0 and the kernfs nodes will never be freed. It leads to
reference count leak and kernfs_node_cache memory leak.

For example, reference count leak is observed in these two cases:
(1) mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl
mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/c1
mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/c1/mon_groups/m1
umount /sys/fs/resctrl

(2) mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/c1
mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/c1/mon_groups/m1
rmdir /sys/fs/resctrl/c1

The same reference count leak issue also exists in the error exit paths
of mkdir in mkdir_rdt_prepare() and rdtgroup_mkdir_ctrl_mon().

Fix this issue by following changes to make sure the extra kernfs_node
reference on rdtgroup is dropped before freeing the rdtgroup structure.
(1) Introduce rdtgroup removal helper rdtgroup_remove() to wrap up
kernfs_put() and kfree().

(2) Call rdtgroup_remove() in rdtgroup removal path where the rdtgroup
structure is about to be freed by kfree().

(3) Call rdtgroup_remove() or kernfs_put() as appropriate in the error
exit paths of mkdir where an extra reference is taken by kernfs_get().

x86/resctrl: Remove superfluous kernfs_get() calls to prevent refcount leak

Willem reported growing of kernfs_node_cache entries in slabtop when
repeatedly creating and removing resctrl subdirectories as well as when
repeatedly mounting and unmounting the resctrl filesystem.

On resource group (control as well as monitoring) creation via a mkdir
an extra kernfs_node reference is obtained to ensure that the rdtgroup
structure remains accessible for the rdtgroup_kn_unlock() calls where it
is removed on deletion. The kernfs_node reference count is dropped by
kernfs_put() in rdtgroup_kn_unlock().

With the above explaining the need for one kernfs_get()/kernfs_put()
pair in resctrl there are more places where a kernfs_node reference is
obtained without a corresponding release. The excessive amount of
reference count on kernfs nodes will never be dropped to 0 and the
kernfs nodes will never be freed in the call paths of rmdir and umount.
It leads to reference count leak and kernfs_node_cache memory leak.

Remove the superfluous kernfs_get() calls and expand the existing
comments surrounding the remaining kernfs_get()/kernfs_put() pair that
remains in use.

Superfluous kernfs_get() calls are removed from two areas:

(1) In call paths of mount and mkdir, when kernfs nodes for "info",
"mon_groups" and "mon_data" directories and sub-directories are
created, the reference count of newly created kernfs node is set to 1.
But after kernfs_create_dir() returns, superfluous kernfs_get() are
called to take an additional reference.

(2) kernfs_get() calls in rmdir call paths.

task_work: cleanup notification modes

A previous commit changed the notification mode from true/false to an
int, allowing notify-no, notify-yes, or signal-notify. This was
backwards compatible in the sense that any existing true/false user
would translate to either 0 (on notification sent) or 1, the latter
which mapped to TWA_RESUME. TWA_SIGNAL was assigned a value of 2.

Clean this up properly, and define a proper enum for the notification
mode. Now we have:

- TWA_NONE. This is 0, same as before the original change, meaning no
notification requested.
- TWA_RESUME. This is 1, same as before the original change, meaning
that we use TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.
- TWA_SIGNAL. This uses TIF_SIGPENDING/JOBCTL_TASK_WORK for the
notification.

Clean up all the callers, switching their 0/1/false/true to using the
appropriate TWA_* mode for notifications.

x86/resctrl: Enable user to view thread or core throttling mode

Early Intel hardware implementations of Memory Bandwidth Allocation (MBA)
could only control bandwidth at the processor core level. This meant that
when two processes with different bandwidth allocations ran simultaneously
on the same core the hardware had to resolve this difference. It did so by
applying the higher throttling value (lower bandwidth) to both processes.

Newer implementations can apply different throttling values to each
thread on a core.

Introduce a new resctrl file, "thread_throttle_mode", on Intel systems
that shows to the user how throttling values are allocated, per-core or
per-thread.

On systems that support per-core throttling, the file will display "max".
On newer systems that support per-thread throttling, the file will display
"per-thread".

AMD confirmed in [1] that AMD bandwidth allocation is already at thread
level but that the AMD implementation does not use a memory delay
throttle mode. So to avoid confusion the thread throttling mode would be
UNDEFINED on AMD systems and the "thread_throttle_mode" file will not be
visible.

x86/resctrl: Fix a NULL vs IS_ERR() static checker warning in rdt_cdp_peer_get()

The callers don't expect *d_cdp to be set to an error pointer, they only
check for NULL. This leads to a static checker warning:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/rdtgroup.c:2648 __init_one_rdt_domain()
warn: 'd_cdp' could be an error pointer

This would not trigger a bug in this specific case because
__init_one_rdt_domain() calls it with a valid domain that would not have
a negative id and thus not trigger the return of the ERR_PTR(). If this
was a negative domain id then the call to rdt_find_domain() in
domain_add_cpu() would have returned the ERR_PTR() much earlier and the
creation of the domain with an invalid id would have been prevented.

Even though a bug is not triggered currently the right and safe thing to
do is to set the pointer to NULL because that is what can be checked for
when the caller is handling the CDP and non-CDP cases.

x86/resctrl: Maintain MBM counter width per resource

The original Memory Bandwidth Monitoring (MBM) architectural
definition defines counters of up to 62 bits in the IA32_QM_CTR MSR,
and the first-generation MBM implementation uses 24 bit counters.
Software is required to poll at 1 second or faster to ensure that
data is retrieved before a counter rollover occurs more than once
under worst conditions.

As system bandwidths scale the software requirement is maintained with
the introduction of a per-resource enumerable MBM counter width.

In preparation for supporting hardware with an enumerable MBM counter
width the current globally static MBM counter width is moved to a
per-resource MBM counter width. Currently initialized to 24 always
to result in no functional change.

In essence there is one function, mbm_overflow_count() that needs to
know the counter width to handle rollovers. The static value
used within mbm_overflow_count() will be replaced with a value
discovered from the hardware. Support for learning the MBM counter
width from hardware is added in the change that follows.

Resctrl assumes that all CPUs are online when the filesystem is mounted,

This goes wrong when resctrl's CDP-enabled state changes while all the
CPUs in a domain are offline.

When a domain comes online, enable (or disable!) CDP to match resctrl's
current setting.

x86/resctrl: Fix invalid attempt at removing the default resource group

The default resource group ("rdtgroup_default") is associated with the
root of the resctrl filesystem and should never be removed. New resource
groups can be created as subdirectories of the resctrl filesystem and
they can be removed from user space.

There exists a safeguard in the directory removal code
(rdtgroup_rmdir()) that ensures that only subdirectories can be removed
by testing that the directory to be removed has to be a child of the
root directory.

A possible deadlock was recently fixed with

334b0f4e9b1b ("x86/resctrl: Fix a deadlock due to inaccurate reference").

This fix involved associating the private data of the "mon_groups"
and "mon_data" directories to the resource group to which they belong
instead of NULL as before. A consequence of this change was that
the original safeguard code preventing removal of "mon_groups" and
"mon_data" found in the root directory failed resulting in attempts to
remove the default resource group that ends in a BUG:

kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3969!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI

Call Trace:
rdtgroup_rmdir+0x16b/0x2c0

do_rmdir+0x17d/0x1e0
do_syscall_64+0x55/0x1d0
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

Fix this by improving the directory removal safeguard to ensure that
subdirectories of the resctrl root directory can only be removed if they
are a child of the resctrl filesystem's root _and_ not associated with
the default resource group.
