Subject: [PATCH][RFC v3] PM / sleep: Do not delay the synchronization of MTRR during resume
Sometimes it is too late for the APs to adjust their MTRRs
to the valid ones saved before suspend - currently this
action is performed by set_mtrr_state() after all the APs
have been brought up. In some cases the BIOS might scribble
the MTRR across suspend, as a result we might get invalid
MTRR after resumed back, thus every instruction runs on
this AP would be extremely slow if it happended to be a
'uncached' MTRR. It is necessary to synchronize the MTRR
as early as possible to get it fixed during each AP's
online - this is what this patch does.
Moreover, since we have put the synchronization earlier, there is
a side effect that, during each AP's online, the previous APs already
been brought up will be forced to run mtrr_rendezvous_handler() and
reprogram the MTRR again and again. This symptom can be mitigated
by checking if this cpu has already run the synchronization
during the enable_nonboot_cpus() stage, if it is, we can safely
bypass the reprogramming action. (We can not bypass the
mtrr_rendezvous_handler(), because the other online cpus must be
stopped running the VMX transaction while one cpu is updating
its MTRR, which is described here:
Commit d0af9eed5aa9 ("x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for
MTRR/PAT init")
This patch does not impact the normal boot up nor cpu hotplug.
On a platform with invalid MTRR after resumed,
1. before this patch:
[ 619.810899] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 619.825537] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x2
[ 621.723809] CPU1 is up
[ 621.840228] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 3 APIC 0x3
[ 626.690900] CPU3 is up
It took cpu1 621.723809 - 619.825537 = 1898.272 ms, and
cpu3 626.690900 - 621.840228 = 4850.672 ms.
2. after this patch:
[ 106.931790] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x2
[ 106.948360] CPU1 is up
[ 106.986534] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 3 APIC 0x3
[ 106.990702] CPU3 is up
It took cpu1 106.948360 - 106.931790 = 16.57 ms, and
cpu3 106.990702 - 106.986534 = 4.16 ms.
For comparison, suspend on a 88 cpus Xeon Broadwell
platform is also tested, and the result shows that
with this patch applied, the overall APs online time has
decreased a little bit, this is because since the synchronizing
of MTRR has been performed earlier, the MTRRs get updated
to the correct value earlier.
Tested 5 times, data illustrated below:
1. before this patch:
[ 64.549430] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 66.253304] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 1.703874 second
[ 62.159063] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 64.483443] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 2.32438 second
[ 58.351449] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 60.796951] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 2.445502 second
[ 64.491317] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 66.996208] End enabling non-boot CPUs

[ 60.593235] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 63.397886] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 2.804651 second
Average: 2.3566596 second
2. after this patch:
[ 66.077368] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 68.343374] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 2.266006 second
[ 64.594605] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 66.092688] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 1.498083 second
[ 64.778546] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 66.277577] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 1.499031 second
[ 63.773091] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 65.601637] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 1.828546 second
[ 64.638855] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
[ 66.327098] End enabling non-boot CPUs
overall cpu online: 1.688243 second
Average: 1.7559818 second
With the patch applied, the cpu online time during resume
has decreased by about 6 seconds on a bogus MTRR platform,
and decreased by about 600ms on a 88 cpus Xeon platform after
resumed.
