Andy Lutomirski 94b1b03b51 x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking
x86's lazy TLB mode used to be fairly weak -- it would switch to
init_mm the first time it tried to flush a lazy TLB.  This meant an
unnecessary CR3 write and, if the flush was remote, an unnecessary
IPI.

Rewrite it entirely.  When we enter lazy mode, we simply remove the
CPU from mm_cpumask.  This means that we need a way to figure out
whether we've missed a flush when we switch back out of lazy mode.
I use the tlb_gen machinery to track whether a context is up to
date.

Note to reviewers: this patch, my itself, looks a bit odd.  I'm
using an array of length 1 containing (ctx_id, tlb_gen) rather than
just storing tlb_gen, and making it at array isn't necessary yet.
I'm doing this because the next few patches add PCID support, and,
with PCID, we need ctx_id, and the array will end up with a length
greater than 1.  Making it an array now means that there will be
less churn and therefore less stress on your eyeballs.

NB: This is dubious but, AFAICT, still correct on Xen and UV.
xen_exit_mmap() uses mm_cpumask() for nefarious purposes and this
patch changes the way that mm_cpumask() works.  This should be okay,
since Xen *also* iterates all online CPUs to find all the CPUs it
needs to twiddle.

The UV tlbflush code is rather dated and should be changed.

Here are some benchmark results, done on a Skylake laptop at 2.3 GHz
(turbo off, intel_pstate requesting max performance) under KVM with
the guest using idle=poll (to avoid artifacts when bouncing between
CPUs).  I haven't done any real statistics here -- I just ran them
in a loop and picked the fastest results that didn't look like
outliers.  Unpatched means commit a4eb8b9935, so all the
bookkeeping overhead is gone.

MADV_DONTNEED; touch the page; switch CPUs using sched_setaffinity.  In
an unpatched kernel, MADV_DONTNEED will send an IPI to the previous CPU.
This is intended to be a nearly worst-case test.

  patched:         13.4µs
  unpatched:       21.6µs

Vitaly's pthread_mmap microbenchmark with 8 threads (on four cores),
nrounds = 100, 256M data

  patched:         1.1 seconds or so
  unpatched:       1.9 seconds or so

The sleepup on Vitaly's test appearss to be because it spends a lot
of time blocked on mmap_sem, and this patch avoids sending IPIs to
blocked CPUs.

* going to need to flush in the very near future, so we might
* as well get it over with.
*
* The only question is whether to do a full or partial flush.
*
* We do a partial flush if requested and two extra conditions
* are met:
*
* 1. f->new_tlb_gen == local_tlb_gen + 1. We have an invariant that
* we've always done all needed flushes to catch up to
* local_tlb_gen. If, for example, local_tlb_gen == 2 and
* f->new_tlb_gen == 3, then we know that the flush needed to bring
* us up to date for tlb_gen 3 is the partial flush we're
* processing.
*
* As an example of why this check is needed, suppose that there
* are two concurrent flushes. The first is a full flush that
* changes context.tlb_gen from 1 to 2. The second is a partial
* flush that changes context.tlb_gen from 2 to 3. If they get
* processed on this CPU in reverse order, we'll see
* local_tlb_gen == 1, mm_tlb_gen == 3, and end != TLB_FLUSH_ALL.
* If we were to use __flush_tlb_single() and set local_tlb_gen to
* 3, we'd be break the invariant: we'd update local_tlb_gen above
* 1 without the full flush that's needed for tlb_gen 2.
*
* 2. f->new_tlb_gen == mm_tlb_gen. This is purely an optimiation.
* Partial TLB flushes are not all that much cheaper than full TLB
* flushes, so it seems unlikely that it would be a performance win
* to do a partial flush if that won't bring our TLB fully up to
* date. By doing a full flush instead, we can increase
* local_tlb_gen all the way to mm_tlb_gen and we can probably
* avoid another flush in the very near future.
