Current average steal timer calculation produces volatile and inflated
values. The only user of this value is KVM so far and it uses that to
decide whether or not to yield the vCPU which is seeing steal time.
KVM compares average steal timer to a threshold and if the threshold
is past then it does not allow CPU polling and yields it to host, else
it keeps the CPU by polling.
Since KVM's steal time threshold is very low by default (%10) it most
likely is not effected much by the bloated average steal timer values
because the operating region is pretty small. However there might be
new users in the future who might rely on this number. Fix average
steal timer calculation by changing the formula from:
avg_steal_timer = avg_steal_timer / 2 + steal_timer;
to the following:
avg_steal_timer = (avg_steal_timer + steal_timer) / 2;
This ensures that avg_steal_timer is actually a naive average of steal
timer values. It now closely follows steal timer values but of course
in a smoother manner.

vtime_account_system() decides if we need to account the time to the
system (__vtime_account_system()) or to the guest (vtime_account_guest()).
So this function is a misnomer as we are on a higher level than
"system". All we know when we call that function is that we are
accounting kernel cputime. Whether it belongs to guest or system time
is a lower level detail.
Rename this function to vtime_account_kernel(). This will clarify things

The account_system_time() function is called with a cputime that
occurred while running in the kernel. The function detects which
context the CPU is currently running in and accounts the time to
the correct bucket. This forces the arch code to account the
cputime for hardirq and softirq immediately.
Such accounting function can be costly and perform unwelcome divisions
and multiplications, among others.
The arch code can delay the accounting for system time. For s390
the accounting is done once per timer tick and for each task switch.

The calculation for the SMT scaling factor for a hardware thread

The scaled cputime is supposed to be derived from the normal per-thread
cputime by dividing it with the average thread density in the last interval.
The calculation of the scaling values for the average thread density is
incorrect. The current, incorrect calculation:
Ci = cycle count with i active threads
T = unscaled cputime, sT = scaled cputime
sT = T * (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) / (1*C1 + 2*C2 + ... + n*Cn)
The calculation happens to yield the correct numbers for the simple cases
with only one Ci value not zero. But for cases with multiple Ci values not
zero it fails. E.g. on a SMT-2 system with one thread active half the time
and two threads active for the other half of the time it fails, the scaling
factor should be 3/4 but the formula gives 2/3.
The correct formula is
sT = T * (C1/1 + C2/2 + ... + Cn/n) / (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn)

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family.
This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the
facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the
system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating
system with all its registers and properties.
The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum
thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information
is a core representing a number of hardware threads.
To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a
single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the
raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is
reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers
are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.

Use the ACCESS_ONCE macro for both accesses to idle->sequence in the
loops to calculate the idle time. If only one access uses the macro,
the compiler is free to cache the value for the second access which
can cause endless loops.

If the arch overrides some generic vtime APIs, let it describe
these on a dedicated and standalone header. This way it becomes
convenient to include it in vtime generic headers without irrelevant
stuff in such a low level header.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/s390 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. Currently s390 does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.

Pull s390 update from Martin Schwidefsky:
"The most prominent change in this patch set is the software dirty bit
patch for s390. It removes __HAVE_ARCH_PAGE_TEST_AND_CLEAR_DIRTY and
the page_test_and_clear_dirty primitive which makes the common memory
management code a bit less obscure.
Heiko fixed most of the PCI related fallout, more often than not
missing GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependencies. Notable is one of the 3270
patches which adds an export to tty_io to be able to resize a tty.
The rest is the usual bunch of cleanups and bug fixes."

While remotely reading the cputime of a task running in a
full dynticks CPU, the values stored in utime/stime fields
of struct task_struct may be stale. Its values may be those
of the last kernel <-> user transition time snapshot and
we need to add the tickless time spent since this snapshot.
To fix this, flush the cputime of the dynticks CPUs on
kernel <-> user transition and record the time / context
where we did this. Then on top of this snapshot and the current
time, perform the fixup on the reader side from task_times()
accessors.

[fixed kvm module related build errors]
Signed-off-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com>
System time accounting APIs such as vtime_account_system() and
vtime_account_idle() need to be irqsafe. Current callers include
irq entry, exit and kvm, all of which have been checked against that
requirement. Now it's better to grow that with an automatic check
in case we have further callers or we missed something.

All vtime implementations just flush the user time on process
tick. Consolidate that in generic code by calling a user time
accounting helper. This avoids an indirect call in ia64 and
prepare to also consolidate vtime context switch code.

Prepending irq-unsafe vtime APIs with underscores was actually
a bad idea as the result is a big mess in the API namespace that
is even waiting to be further extended. Also these helpers
are always called from irq safe callers except kvm. Just
provide a vtime_account_system_irqsafe() for this specific
case so that we can remove the underscore prefix on other
vtime functions.

vtime_account_system() currently has only one caller with
vtime_account() which is irq safe.
Now we are going to call it from other places like kvm where
irqs are not always disabled by the time we account the cputime.
So let's make it irqsafe. The arch implementation part is now
prefixed with "__".
vtime_account_idle() arch implementation is prefixed accordingly
to stay consistent.
