Merge tag 'x86-core-2023-10-29-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
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. * tag 'x86-core-2023-10-29-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) x86/apic, x86/hyperv: Use u32 in hv_snp_boot_ap() too x86/cpu: Provide debug interface x86/cpu/topology: Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical ids x86/apic: Use u32 for wakeup_secondary_cpu[_64]() x86/apic: Use u32 for [gs]et_apic_id() x86/apic: Use u32 for phys_pkg_id() x86/apic: Use u32 for cpu_present_to_apicid() x86/apic: Use u32 for check_apicid_used() x86/apic: Use u32 for APIC IDs in global data x86/apic: Use BAD_APICID consistently x86/cpu: Move cpu_l[l2]c_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move logical package and die IDs into topology info x86/cpu: Remove pointless evaluation of x86_coreid_bits x86/cpu: Move cu_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move cpu_core_id into topology info hwmon: (fam15h_power) Use topology_core_id() scsi: lpfc: Use topology_core_id() x86/cpu: Move cpu_die_id into topology info x86/cpu: Move phys_proc_id into topology info x86/cpu: Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86 ...
