Pull x86 tlb updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The x86 MM changes in this cycle were:
- Implement concurrent TLB flushes, which overlaps the local TLB
flush with the remote TLB flush.
In testing this improved sysbench performance measurably by a
couple of percentage points, especially if TLB-heavy security
mitigations are active.
- Further micro-optimizations to improve the performance of TLB
flushes"

cpu_tlbstate is mostly private and only the variable is_lazy is shared.
This causes some false-sharing when TLB flushes are performed.
Break cpu_tlbstate intro cpu_tlbstate and cpu_tlbstate_shared, and mark
each one accordingly.

To improve TLB shootdown performance, flush the remote and local TLBs
concurrently. Introduce flush_tlb_multi() that does so. Introduce
paravirtual versions of flush_tlb_multi() for KVM, Xen and hyper-v (Xen
and hyper-v are only compile-tested).
While the updated smp infrastructure is capable of running a function on
a single local core, it is not optimized for this case. The multiple
function calls and the indirect branch introduce some overhead, and
might make local TLB flushes slower than they were before the recent
changes.
Before calling the SMP infrastructure, check if only a local TLB flush
is needed to restore the lost performance in this common case. This
requires to check mm_cpumask() one more time, but unless this mask is
updated very frequently, this should impact performance negatively.

Open-code on_each_cpu_cond_mask() in native_flush_tlb_others() to
optimize the code. Open-coding eliminates the need for the indirect branch
that is used to call is_lazy(), and in CPUs that are vulnerable to
Spectre v2, it eliminates the retpoline. In addition, it allows to use a
preallocated cpumask to compute the CPUs that should be.
This would later allow us not to adapt on_each_cpu_cond_mask() to
support local and remote functions.
Note that calling tlb_is_not_lazy() for every CPU that needs to be
flushed, as done in native_flush_tlb_multi() might look ugly, but it is
equivalent to what is currently done in on_each_cpu_cond_mask().
Actually, native_flush_tlb_multi() does it more efficiently since it
avoids using an indirect branch for the matter.

The unification of these two functions allows to use them in the updated
SMP infrastrucutre.
To do so, remove the reason argument from flush_tlb_func_local(), add
a member to struct tlb_flush_info that says which CPU initiated the
flush and act accordingly. Optimize the size of flush_tlb_info while we
are at it.
Unfortunately, this prevents us from using a constant tlb_flush_info for
arch_tlbbatch_flush(), but in a later stage we may be able to inline
tlb_flush_info into the IPI data, so it should not have an impact
eventually.

sync_core_before_usermode() had an incorrect optimization. If the kernel
returns from an interrupt, it can get to usermode without IRET. It just has
to schedule to a different task in the same mm and do SYSRET. Fortunately,
there were no callers of sync_core_before_usermode() that could have had
in_irq() or in_nmi() equal to true, because it's only ever called from the
scheduler.
While at it, clarify a related comment.

load_mm_cr4() is always called with interrupts disabled from:
- switch_mm_irqs_off()
- refresh_pce(), which is a on_each_cpu() callback
Thus, disabling interrupts in cr4_set/clear_bits() is redundant.
Implement cr4_set/clear_bits_irqsoff() helpers, rename load_mm_cr4() to
load_mm_cr4_irqsoff() and use the new helpers. The new helpers do not need
a lockdep assert as __cr4_set() has one already.
The renaming in combination with the checks in __cr4_set() ensure that any
changes in the boundary conditions at the call sites will be detected.

Move flush_tlb_info variables off the stack. This allows to align
flush_tlb_info to cache-line and avoid potentially unnecessary cache
line movements. It also allows to have a fixed virtual-to-physical
translation of the variables, which reduces TLB misses.
Use per-CPU struct for flush_tlb_mm_range() and
flush_tlb_kernel_range(). Add debug assertions to ensure there are
no nested TLB flushes that might overwrite the per-CPU data. For
arch_tlbbatch_flush() use a const struct.

Revert the following commit:
515ab7c41306: ("x86/mm: Align TLB invalidation info")
I found out (the hard way) that under some .config options (notably L1_CACHE_SHIFT=7)
and compiler combinations this on-stack alignment leads to a 320 byte
stack usage, which then triggers a KASAN stack warning elsewhere.
Using 320 bytes of stack space for a 40 byte structure is ludicrous and
clearly not right.

The IBPB speculation barrier is issued from switch_mm() when the kernel
switches to a user space task with a different mm than the user space task
which ran last on the same CPU.
An additional optimization is to avoid IBPB when the incoming task can be
ptraced by the outgoing task. This optimization only works when switching
directly between two user space tasks. When switching from a kernel task to
a user space task the optimization fails because the previous task cannot
be accessed anymore. So for quite some scenarios the optimization is just
adding overhead.
The upcoming conditional IBPB support will issue IBPB only for user space
tasks which have the TIF_SPEC_IB bit set. This requires to handle the
following cases:
1) Switch from a user space task (potential attacker) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB set to a user space task (potential victim) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB not set.
2) Switch from a user space task (potential attacker) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB not set to a user space task (potential victim) which has
TIF_SPEC_IB set.
This needs to be optimized for the case where the IBPB can be avoided when
only kernel threads ran in between user space tasks which belong to the
same process.
The current check whether two tasks belong to the same context is using the
tasks context id. While correct, it's simpler to use the mm pointer because
it allows to mangle the TIF_SPEC_IB bit into it. The context id based
mechanism requires extra storage, which creates worse code.
When a task is scheduled out its TIF_SPEC_IB bit is mangled as bit 0 into
the per CPU storage which is used to track the last user space mm which was
running on a CPU. This bit can be used together with the TIF_SPEC_IB bit of
the incoming task to make the decision whether IBPB needs to be issued or
not to cover the two cases above.
As conditional IBPB is going to be the default, remove the dubious ptrace
check for the IBPB always case and simply issue IBPB always when the
process changes.
Move the storage to a different place in the struct as the original one
created a hole.

Lazy TLB mode can result in an idle CPU being woken up by a TLB flush,
when all it really needs to do is reload %CR3 at the next context switch,
assuming no page table pages got freed.
Memory ordering is used to prevent race conditions between switch_mm_irqs_off,
which checks whether .tlb_gen changed, and the TLB invalidation code, which
increments .tlb_gen whenever page table entries get invalidated.
The atomic increment in inc_mm_tlb_gen is its own barrier; the context
switch code adds an explicit barrier between reading tlbstate.is_lazy and
next->context.tlb_gen.
CPUs in lazy TLB mode remain part of the mm_cpumask(mm), both because
that allows TLB flush IPIs to be sent at page table freeing time, and
because the cache line bouncing on the mm_cpumask(mm) was responsible
for about half the CPU use in switch_mm_irqs_off().
We can change native_flush_tlb_others() without touching other
(paravirt) implementations of flush_tlb_others() because we'll be
flushing less. The existing implementations flush more and are
therefore still correct.

On most workloads, the number of context switches far exceeds the
number of TLB flushes sent. Optimizing the context switches, by always
using lazy TLB mode, speeds up those workloads.
This patch results in about a 1% reduction in CPU use on a two socket
Broadwell system running a memcache like workload.

Currently, IBPB is only issued in cases when switching into a non-dumpable
process, the rationale being to protect such 'important and security
sensitive' processess (such as GPG) from data leaking into a different
userspace process via spectre v2.
This is however completely insufficient to provide proper userspace-to-userpace
spectrev2 protection, as any process can poison branch buffers before being
scheduled out, and the newly scheduled process immediately becomes spectrev2
victim.
In order to minimize the performance impact (for usecases that do require
spectrev2 protection), issue the barrier only in cases when switching between
processess where the victim can't be ptraced by the potential attacker (as in
such cases, the attacker doesn't have to bother with branch buffers at all).

A NMI can hit in the middle of context switching or in the middle of
switch_mm_irqs_off(). In either case, CR3 might not match current->mm,
which could cause copy_from_user_nmi() and friends to read the wrong
memory.
Fix it by adding a new nmi_uaccess_okay() helper and checking it in
copy_from_user_nmi() and in __copy_from_user_nmi()'s callers.

Song Liu noticed switch_mm_irqs_off() taking a lot of CPU time in recent
kernels,using 1.8% of a 48 CPU system during a netperf to localhost run.
Digging into the profile, we noticed that cpumask_clear_cpu and
cpumask_set_cpu together take about half of the CPU time taken by
switch_mm_irqs_off().
However, the CPUs running netperf end up switching back and forth
between netperf and the idle task, which does not require changes
to the mm_cpumask. Furthermore, the init_mm cpumask ends up being
the most heavily contended one in the system.
Simply skipping changes to mm_cpumask(&init_mm) reduces overhead.

Now that CPUs in lazy TLB mode no longer receive TLB shootdown IPIs, except
at page table freeing time, and idle CPUs will no longer get shootdown IPIs
for things like mprotect and madvise, we can always use lazy TLB mode.

CPUs in !is_lazy have either received TLB flush IPIs earlier on during
the munmap (when the user memory was unmapped), or have context switched
and reloaded during that stage of the munmap.
Page table free TLB flushes only need to be sent to CPUs in lazy TLB
mode, which TLB contents might not yet be up to date yet.

Unlike the 2016 version of this patch, CPUs with cpu_tlbstate.is_lazy set
are not removed from the mm_cpumask(mm), since that would prevent the TLB
flush IPIs at page table free time from being sent to all the CPUs
that need them.
This patch reduces total CPU use in the system by about 1-2% for a
memcache workload on two socket systems, and by about 1% for a heavily
multi-process netperf between two systems.

Andy discovered that speculative memory accesses while in lazy
TLB mode can crash a system, when a CPU tries to dereference a
speculative access using memory contents that used to be valid
page table memory, but have since been reused for something else
and point into la-la land.
The latter problem can be prevented in two ways. The first is to
always send a TLB shootdown IPI to CPUs in lazy TLB mode, while
the second one is to only send the TLB shootdown at page table
freeing time.
The second should result in fewer IPIs, since operationgs like
mprotect and madvise are very common with some workloads, but
do not involve page table freeing. Also, on munmap, batching
of page table freeing covers much larger ranges of virtual
memory than the batching of unmapped user pages.
