commit 2dd9c11b9d upstream.
This patch leverages 'struct pci_host_bridge' from the PCI subsystem
in order to free the pci_controller only after the last reference to
its devices is dropped (avoiding an oops in pcibios_release_device()
if the last reference is dropped after pcibios_free_controller()).
The patch relies on pci_host_bridge.release_fn() (and .release_data),
which is called automatically by the PCI subsystem when the root bus
is released (i.e., the last reference is dropped). Those fields are
set via pci_set_host_bridge_release() (e.g. in the platform-specific
implementation of pcibios_root_bridge_prepare()).
It introduces the 'pcibios_free_controller_deferred()' .release_fn()
and it expects .release_data to hold a pointer to the pci_controller.
The function implictly calls 'pcibios_free_controller()', so an user
must *NOT* explicitly call it if using the new _deferred() callback.
The functionality is enabled for pseries (although it isn't platform
specific, and may be used by cxl).
Details on not-so-elegant design choices:
- Use 'pci_host_bridge.release_data' field as pointer to associated
'struct pci_controller' so *not* to 'pci_bus_to_host(bridge->bus)'
in pcibios_free_controller_deferred().
That's because pci_remove_root_bus() sets 'host_bridge->bus = NULL'
(so, if the last reference is released after pci_remove_root_bus()
runs, which eventually reaches pcibios_free_controller_deferred(),
that would hit a null pointer dereference).
The cxl/vphb.c code calls pci_remove_root_bus(), and the cxl folks
are interested in this fix.

commit d23fac2b27 upstream.
The SIAR and SDAR registers are available twice, one time as SPRs
780 / 781 (unprivileged, but read-only), and one time as the SPRs
796 / 797 (privileged, but read and write). The Linux kernel code
currently uses the unprivileged SPRs - while this is OK for reading,
writing to that register of course does not work.
Since the KVM code tries to write to this register, too (see the mtspr
in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S), the contents of this register sometimes get
lost for the guests, e.g. during migration of a VM.
To fix this issue, simply switch to the privileged SPR numbers instead.

when -frename-registers was enabled at -O2. It is just luck however
that we aren't seeing this on older toolchains.

commit 6997e57d69 upstream.
The REAL_LE feature entry in the ibm_pa_feature struct is missing an MMU
feature value, meaning all the remaining elements initialise the wrong
values.
This means instead of checking for byte 5, bit 0, we check for byte 0,
bit 0, and then we incorrectly set the CPU feature bit as well as MMU
feature bit 1 and CPU user feature bits 0 and 2 (5).
Checking byte 0 bit 0 (IBM numbering), means we're looking at the
"Memory Management Unit (MMU)" feature - ie. does the CPU have an MMU.
In practice that bit is set on all platforms which have the property.
This means we set CPU_FTR_REAL_LE always. In practice that seems not to
matter because all the modern cpus which have this property also
implement REAL_LE, and we've never needed to disable it.
We're also incorrectly setting MMU feature bit 1, which is:
#define MMU_FTR_TYPE_8xx 0x00000002
Luckily the only place that looks for MMU_FTR_TYPE_8xx is in Book3E
code, which can't run on the same cpus as scan_features(). So this also
doesn't matter in practice.
Finally in the CPU user feature mask, we're setting bits 0 and 2. Bit 2
is not currently used, and bit 0 is:
#define PPC_FEATURE_PPC_LE 0x00000001
Which says the CPU supports the old style "PPC Little Endian" mode.
Again this should be harmless in practice as no 64-bit CPUs implement
that mode.
Fix the code by adding the missing initialisation of the MMU feature.
Also add a comment marking CPU user feature bit 2 (0x4) as reserved. It
would be unsafe to start using it as old kernels incorrectly set it.

commit a61674bdfc upstream.
GCC 6 will include changes to generated code with -mcmodel=large,
which is used to build kernel modules on powerpc64le. This was
necessary because the large model is supposed to allow arbitrary
sizes and locations of the code and data sections, but the ELFv2
global entry point prolog still made the unconditional assumption
that the TOC associated with any particular function can be found
within 2 GB of the function entry point:
func:
addis r2,r12,(.TOC.-func)@ha
addi r2,r2,(.TOC.-func)@l
.localentry func, .-func
To remove this assumption, GCC will now generate instead this global
entry point prolog sequence when using -mcmodel=large:
.quad .TOC.-func
func:
.reloc ., R_PPC64_ENTRY
ld r2, -8(r12)
add r2, r2, r12
.localentry func, .-func
The new .reloc triggers an optimization in the linker that will
replace this new prolog with the original code (see above) if the
linker determines that the distance between .TOC. and func is in
range after all.
Since this new relocation is now present in module object files,
the kernel module loader is required to handle them too. This
patch adds support for the new relocation and implements the
same optimization done by the GNU linker.

According to memory-barriers.txt:
> Any atomic operation that modifies some state in memory and returns
> information about the state (old or new) implies an SMP-conditional
> general memory barrier (smp_mb()) on each side of the actual

Which mean these operations should be fully ordered. However on PPC,
PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER is the barrier before the actual operation,
which is currently "lwsync" if SMP=y. The leading "lwsync" can not
guarantee fully ordered atomics, according to Paul Mckenney:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/14/970
To fix this, we define PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER as "sync" to guarantee
the fully-ordered semantics.
This also makes futex atomics fully ordered, which can avoid possible
memory ordering problems if userspace code relies on futex system call
for fully ordered semantics.

commit 74b5037baa upstream.
The powerpc kernel can be built to have either a 4K PAGE_SIZE or a 64K
PAGE_SIZE.
However when built with a 4K PAGE_SIZE there is an additional config
option which can be enabled, PPC_HAS_HASH_64K, which means the kernel
also knows how to hash a 64K page even though the base PAGE_SIZE is 4K.
This is used in one obscure configuration, to support 64K pages for SPU
local store on the Cell processor when the rest of the kernel is using
4K pages.
In this configuration, pte_pagesize_index() is defined to just pass
through its arguments to get_slice_psize(). However pte_pagesize_index()
is called for both user and kernel addresses, whereas get_slice_psize()
only knows how to handle user addresses.
This has been broken forever, however until recently it happened to
work. That was because in get_slice_psize() the large kernel address
would cause the right shift of the slice mask to return zero.
However in commit 7aa0727f33 ("powerpc/mm: Increase the slice range to
64TB"), the get_slice_psize() code was changed so that instead of a
right shift we do an array lookup based on the address. When passed a
kernel address this means we index way off the end of the slice array
and return random junk.
That is only fatal if we happen to hit something non-zero, but when we
do return a non-zero value we confuse the MMU code and eventually cause
a check stop.
This fix is ugly, but simple. When we're called for a kernel address we
return 4K, which is always correct in this configuration, otherwise we
use the slice mask.

Currently, when going idle, we set the flag indicating that we are in
nap mode (paca->kvm_hstate.hwthread_state) and then execute the nap
(or sleep or rvwinkle) instruction, all with the MMU on. This is bad
for two reasons: (a) the architecture specifies that those instructions
must be executed with the MMU off, and in fact with only the SF, HV, ME
and possibly RI bits set, and (b) this introduces a race, because as
soon as we set the flag, another thread can switch the MMU to a guest
context. If the race is lost, this thread will typically start looping
on relocation-on ISIs at 0xc...4400.
This fixes it by setting the MSR as required by the architecture before
setting the flag or executing the nap/sleep/rvwinkle instruction.

commit 51d7d5205d upstream.
The kernel defines the function spin_is_locked(), which can be used to
check if a spinlock is currently locked.
Using spin_is_locked() on a lock you don't hold is obviously racy. That
is, even though you may observe that the lock is unlocked, it may become
locked at any time.
There is (at least) one exception to that, which is if two locks are
used as a pair, and the holder of each checks the status of the other
before doing any update.
Assuming *A and *B are two locks, and *COUNTER is a shared non-atomic
value:
The first CPU does:
spin_lock(*A)
if spin_is_locked(*B)
# nothing
else
smp_mb()
LOAD r = *COUNTER
r++
STORE *COUNTER = r
spin_unlock(*A)
And the second CPU does:
spin_lock(*B)
if spin_is_locked(*A)
# nothing
else
smp_mb()
LOAD r = *COUNTER
r++
STORE *COUNTER = r
spin_unlock(*B)
Although this is a strange locking construct, it should work.
It seems to be understood, but not documented, that spin_is_locked() is
not a memory barrier, so in the examples above and below the caller
inserts its own memory barrier before acting on the result of
spin_is_locked().
For now we assume spin_is_locked() is implemented as below, and we break
it out in our examples:
bool spin_is_locked(*LOCK) {
LOAD l = *LOCK
return l.locked
}
Our intuition is that there should be no problem even if the two code
sequences run simultaneously such as:
CPU 0 CPU 1
==================================================
spin_lock(*A) spin_lock(*B)
LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A
if b.locked # true if a.locked # true
# nothing # nothing
spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B)
If one CPU gets the lock before the other then it will do the update and
the other CPU will back off:
CPU 0 CPU 1
==================================================
spin_lock(*A)
LOAD b = *B
spin_lock(*B)
if b.locked # false LOAD a = *A
else if a.locked # true
smp_mb() # nothing
LOAD r1 = *COUNTER spin_unlock(*B)
r1++
STORE *COUNTER = r1
spin_unlock(*A)
However in reality spin_lock() itself is not indivisible. On powerpc we
implement it as a load-and-reserve and store-conditional.
Ignoring the retry logic for the lost reservation case, it boils down to:
spin_lock(*LOCK) {
LOAD l = *LOCK
l.locked = true
STORE *LOCK = l
ACQUIRE_BARRIER
}
The ACQUIRE_BARRIER is required to give spin_lock() ACQUIRE semantics as
defined in memory-barriers.txt:
This acts as a one-way permeable barrier. It guarantees that all
memory operations after the ACQUIRE operation will appear to happen
after the ACQUIRE operation with respect to the other components of
the system.
On modern powerpc systems we use lwsync for ACQUIRE_BARRIER. lwsync is
also know as "lightweight sync", or "sync 1".
As described in Power ISA v2.07 section B.2.1.1, in this scenario the
lwsync is not the barrier itself. It instead causes the LOAD of *LOCK to
act as the barrier, preventing any loads or stores in the locked region
from occurring prior to the load of *LOCK.
Whether this behaviour is in accordance with the definition of ACQUIRE
semantics in memory-barriers.txt is open to discussion, we may switch to
a different barrier in future.
What this means in practice is that the following can occur:
CPU 0 CPU 1
==================================================
LOAD a = *A LOAD b = *B
a.locked = true b.locked = true
LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A
STORE *A = a STORE *B = b
if b.locked # false if a.locked # false
else else
smp_mb() smp_mb()
LOAD r1 = *COUNTER LOAD r2 = *COUNTER
r1++ r2++
STORE *COUNTER = r1
STORE *COUNTER = r2 # Lost update
spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B)
That is, the load of *B can occur prior to the store that makes *A
visibly locked. And similarly for CPU 1. The result is both CPUs hold
their lock and believe the other lock is unlocked.
The easiest fix for this is to add a full memory barrier to the start of
spin_is_locked(), so adding to our previous definition would give us:
bool spin_is_locked(*LOCK) {
smp_mb()
LOAD l = *LOCK
return l.locked
}
The new barrier orders the store to the lock we are locking vs the load
of the other lock:
CPU 0 CPU 1
==================================================
LOAD a = *A LOAD b = *B
a.locked = true b.locked = true
STORE *A = a STORE *B = b
smp_mb() smp_mb()
LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A
if b.locked # true if a.locked # true
# nothing # nothing
spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B)
Although the above example is theoretical, there is code similar to this
example in sem_lock() in ipc/sem.c. This commit in addition to the next
commit appears to be a fix for crashes we are seeing in that code where
we believe this race happens in practice.

ABIv1 has a minimum stack frame size of 112 bytes consisting of 48 bytes
and 64 bytes of parameter save area. ABIv2 changes that to 32 bytes
with no paramter save area.
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is in theory the minimum stack frame size,
but we over 240 uses of it, some of which assume that it includes
space for the parameter area.
We need to work through all our stack defines and rationalise them
but let's fix perf now by creating STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and using
in valid_next_sp(). This fixes the issue:

commit fc04795575 upstream.
If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect
or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash
table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages
in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for
these pages.
We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a
pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte,
that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in
the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries.
Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should
invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.

commit 85c1fafd72 upstream.
On ppc64 we support 4K hash pte with 64K page size. That requires
us to track the hash pte slot information on a per 4k basis. We do that
by storing the slot details in the second half of pte page. The pte bit
_PAGE_COMBO is used to indicate whether the second half need to be
looked while building real_pte. We need to use read memory barrier while
doing that so that load of hidx is not reordered w.r.t _PAGE_COMBO
check. On the store side we already do a lwsync in __hash_page_4K

commit a0840240c0 upstream.
Unfortunately, the LPCR got defined as a 32-bit register in the
one_reg interface. This is unfortunate because KVM allows userspace
to control the DPFD (default prefetch depth) field, which is in the
upper 32 bits. The result is that DPFD always get set to 0, which
reduces performance in the guest.
We can't just change KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR to be a 64-bit register ID,
since that would break existing userspace binaries. Instead we define
a new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id which is 64-bit. Userspace can still use
the old KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR id, but it now only modifies those fields in
the bottom 32 bits that userspace can modify (ILE, TC and AIL).
If userspace uses the new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id, it can modify DPFD
as well.

In commit 27f4488872 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support
for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines.
This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query
for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special
sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running
in hypervisor mode.
OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside
IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it.
Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the
query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have
seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware.
The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line
was added in commit 817c21ad9a "Get kernel command line accross OPAL
takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be
removed.

ABIv2 has the concept of a global and local entry point to a function.
In most cases we are interested in the local entry point, and so that is
what ppc_function_entry() returns.
However we have a case in the ftrace code where we want the global entry
point, and there may be other places we need it too. Rather than special
casing each, add an accessor.
For ABIv1 and 32-bit there is only a single entry point, so we return
that. That means it's safe for the caller to use this without also
checking the ABI version.

If primary PE bus is root bus, the PHB's dev-node would be tried

On PowerNV platform, EEH errors are reported by IO accessors or poller
driven by interrupt. After the PE is isolated, we won't produce EEH
event for the PE. The current implementation has possibility of EEH
event lost in this way:
The interrupt handler queues one "special" event, which drives the poller.
EEH thread doesn't pick the special event yet. IO accessors kicks in, the
frozen PE is marked as "isolated" and EEH event is queued to the list.
EEH thread runs because of special event and purge all existing EEH events.
However, we never produce an other EEH event for the frozen PE. Eventually,
the PE is marked as "isolated" and we don't have EEH event to recover it.
The patch fixes the issue to keep EEH events for PEs that have been
marked as "isolated" with the help of additional "force" help to
eeh_remove_event().

Correct the DSCR SPR becoming temporarily corrupted if a task is
context switched during a transaction.
The problem occurs while suspending the task and is caused by saving
the DSCR to thread.dscr after it has already been set to the CPU's
default value:
__switch_to() calls __switch_to_tm()
which calls tm_reclaim_task()
which calls tm_reclaim_thread()
which calls tm_reclaim()
where the DSCR is set to the CPU's default
__switch_to() calls _switch()
where thread.dscr is set to the DSCR
When the task is resumed, it's transaction will be doomed (as usual)
and the DSCR SPR will be corrupted, although the checkpointed value
will be correct. Therefore the DSCR will be immediately corrected by
the transaction aborting, unless it has been suspended. In that case
the incorrect value can be seen by the task until it resumes the
transaction.
The fix is to treat the DSCR similarly to the TAR and save it early
in __switch_to().

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window. It got
a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
ack in it. Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.
There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
still want to sort through and test.
The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
with our new v2 ABI. We previously supported v2 userspace but the
kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack. This is now sorted mostly
thanks to Anton and Rusty.
We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper. This was made harder by the fact that
traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it. This
meant more churn that just endian fixes.
This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.
There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
*will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).
Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
P8 by Michael. This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
(the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).
And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."

When it was introduced, zone_reclaim_mode made sense as NUMA distances
punished and workloads were generally partitioned to fit into a NUMA
node. NUMA machines are now common but few of the workloads are
NUMA-aware and it's routine to see major performance degradation due to
zone_reclaim_mode being enabled but relatively few can identify the
problem.
Those that require zone_reclaim_mode are likely to be able to detect
when it needs to be enabled and tune appropriately so lets have a
sensible default for the bulk of users.
This patch (of 2):
zone_reclaim_mode causes processes to prefer reclaiming memory from
local node instead of spilling over to other nodes. This made sense
initially when NUMA machines were almost exclusively HPC and the
workload was partitioned into nodes. The NUMA penalties were
sufficiently high to justify reclaiming the memory. On current machines
and workloads it is often the case that zone_reclaim_mode destroys
performance but not all users know how to detect this. Favour the
common case and disable it by default. Users that are sophisticated
enough to know they need zone_reclaim_mode will detect it.

and prot_none faults. This decision was x86-specific and conceptually
it is difficult requiring special casing to distinguish between PROTNONE
and NUMA ptes based on context.
Fundamentally, we only need the _PAGE_NUMA bit to tell the difference
between an entry that is really unmapped and a page that is protected
for NUMA hinting faults as if the PTE is not present then a fault will
be trapped.
Swap PTEs on x86-64 use the bits after _PAGE_GLOBAL for the offset.
This patch shrinks the maximum possible swap size and uses the bit to
uniquely distinguish between NUMA hinting ptes and swap ptes.

- Another round of clean-up of FDT related code in architecture code.
This removes knowledge of internal FDT details from most architectures
except powerpc.
- Conversion of kernel's custom FDT parsing code to use libfdt.
- DT based initialization for generic serial earlycon. The introduction
of generic serial earlycon support went in thru tty tree.
- Improve the platform device naming for DT probed devices to ensure
unique naming and use parent names instead of a global index.
- Fix a race condition in of_update_property.
- Unify the various linker section OF match tables and fix several
function prototype errors.
- Update platform_get_irq_byname to work in deferred probe cases.

was a pretty active cycle for KVM. Changes include:
- a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration,
GDB support and more
- ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin)
- initial POWER8 and little-endian host support
- support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets
- pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface
and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware
- for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still,
we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
always worked). And some optimizations too.
The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence
that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17.
