x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo
After commit 890da9cf0983 (Revert "x86: do not use cpufreq_quick_get()
for /proc/cpuinfo "cpu MHz"") the "cpu MHz" number in /proc/cpuinfo
on x86 can be either the nominal CPU frequency (which is constant)
or the frequency most recently requested by a scaling governor in
cpufreq, depending on the cpufreq configuration. That is somewhat
inconsistent and is different from what it was before 4.13, so in
order to restore the previous behavior, make it report the current
CPU frequency like the scaling_cur_freq sysfs file in cpufreq.
To that end, modify the /proc/cpuinfo implementation on x86 to use
aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() to snapshot the APERF and MPERF feedback
registers, if available, and use their values to compute the CPU
frequency to be reported as "cpu MHz".
However, do that carefully enough to avoid accumulating delays that
lead to unacceptable access times for /proc/cpuinfo on systems with
many CPUs. Run aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() once on all CPUs
asynchronously at the /proc/cpuinfo open time, add a single delay
upfront (if necessary) at that point and simply compute the current
frequency while running show_cpuinfo() for each individual CPU.
Also, to avoid slowing down /proc/cpuinfo accesses too much, reduce
the default delay between consecutive APERF and MPERF reads to 10 ms,
which should be sufficient to get large enough numbers for the
frequency computation in all cases.

x86/cpu: Avoid cpuinfo-induced IPI pileups
The aperfmperf_snapshot_cpu() function is invoked upon access to
/proc/cpuinfo, and it does do an early exit if the specified CPU has
recently done a snapshot. Unfortunately, the indication that a snapshot
has been completed is set in an IPI handler, and the execution of this
handler can be delayed by any number of unfortunate events. This means
that a system that starts a number of applications, each of which
parses /proc/cpuinfo, can suffer from an smp_call_function_single()
storm, especially given that each access to /proc/cpuinfo invokes
smp_call_function_single() for all CPUs. Please note that this is not
theoretical speculation. Note also that one CPU's pending IPI serves
all requests, so there is no point in ever having more than one IPI
pending to a given CPU.
This commit therefore suppresses duplicate IPIs to a given CPU via a
new ->scfpending field in the aperfmperf_sample structure. This field
is set to the value one if an IPI is pending to the corresponding CPU
and to zero otherwise.
The aperfmperf_snapshot_cpu() function uses atomic_xchg() to set this
field to the value one and sample the old value. If this function's
"wait" parameter is zero, smp_call_function_single() is called only if
the old value of the ->scfpending field was zero. The IPI handler uses
atomic_set_release() to set this new field to zero just before returning,
so that the prior stores into the aperfmperf_sample structure are seen
by future requests that get to the atomic_xchg(). Future requests that
pass the elapsed-time check are ordered by the fact that on x86 loads act
as acquire loads, just as was the case prior to this change. The return
value is based off of the age of the prior snapshot, just as before.

x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo
After commit 890da9cf0983 (Revert "x86: do not use cpufreq_quick_get()
for /proc/cpuinfo "cpu MHz"") the "cpu MHz" number in /proc/cpuinfo
on x86 can be either the nominal CPU frequency (which is constant)
or the frequency most recently requested by a scaling governor in
cpufreq, depending on the cpufreq configuration. That is somewhat
inconsistent and is different from what it was before 4.13, so in
order to restore the previous behavior, make it report the current
CPU frequency like the scaling_cur_freq sysfs file in cpufreq.
To that end, modify the /proc/cpuinfo implementation on x86 to use
aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() to snapshot the APERF and MPERF feedback
registers, if available, and use their values to compute the CPU
frequency to be reported as "cpu MHz".
However, do that carefully enough to avoid accumulating delays that
lead to unacceptable access times for /proc/cpuinfo on systems with
many CPUs. Run aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() once on all CPUs
asynchronously at the /proc/cpuinfo open time, add a single delay
upfront (if necessary) at that point and simply compute the current
frequency while running show_cpuinfo() for each individual CPU.
Also, to avoid slowing down /proc/cpuinfo accesses too much, reduce
the default delay between consecutive APERF and MPERF reads to 10 ms,
which should be sufficient to get large enough numbers for the
frequency computation in all cases.

x86/cpu: Avoid cpuinfo-induced IPI pileups
The aperfmperf_snapshot_cpu() function is invoked upon access to
/proc/cpuinfo, and it does do an early exit if the specified CPU has
recently done a snapshot. Unfortunately, the indication that a snapshot
has been completed is set in an IPI handler, and the execution of this
handler can be delayed by any number of unfortunate events. This means
that a system that starts a number of applications, each of which
parses /proc/cpuinfo, can suffer from an smp_call_function_single()
storm, especially given that each access to /proc/cpuinfo invokes
smp_call_function_single() for all CPUs. Please note that this is not
theoretical speculation. Note also that one CPU's pending IPI serves
all requests, so there is no point in ever having more than one IPI
pending to a given CPU.
This commit therefore suppresses duplicate IPIs to a given CPU via a
new ->scfpending field in the aperfmperf_sample structure. This field
is set to the value one if an IPI is pending to the corresponding CPU
and to zero otherwise.
The aperfmperf_snapshot_cpu() function uses atomic_xchg() to set this
field to the value one and sample the old value. If this function's
"wait" parameter is zero, smp_call_function_single() is called only if
the old value of the ->scfpending field was zero. The IPI handler uses
atomic_set_release() to set this new field to zero just before returning,
so that the prior stores into the aperfmperf_sample structure are seen
by future requests that get to the atomic_xchg(). Future requests that
pass the elapsed-time check are ordered by the fact that on x86 loads act
as acquire loads, just as was the case prior to this change. The return
value is based off of the age of the prior snapshot, just as before.
