DD2.1 does not have to flush the ERAT after a state-loss idle.
Performance testing was done on a DD2.1 using only the stop0 idle state
(the shallowest state which supports state loss), using context_switch
selftest configured to ping-poing between two threads on the same core
and two different cores.
Performance improvement for same core is 7.0%, different cores is 14.8%.

After handling a transactional FP, Altivec or VSX unavailable exception.
The return to userspace code will detect that the TIF_RESTORE_TM bit is
set and call restore_tm_state(). restore_tm_state() will call
restore_math() to ensure that the correct facilities are loaded.
This means that all the loadup code in {fp,altivec,vsx}_unavailable_tm()
is doing pointless work and can simply be removed.

Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec means that a userspace process can
be sent to userspace with FP or Altivec disabled and loaded only as
required (by way of an FP/Altivec unavailable exception). Transactional
Memory complicates this situation as a transaction could be started
without FP/Altivec being loaded up. This causes the hardware to
checkpoint incorrect registers. Handling FP/Altivec unavailable
exceptions while a thread is transactional requires a reclaim and
recheckpoint to ensure the CPU has correct state for both sets of
registers.
tm_reclaim() has optimisations to not always save the FP/Altivec
registers to the checkpointed save area. This was originally done
because the caller might have information that the checkpointed
registers aren't valid due to lazy save and restore. We've also been a
little vague as to how tm_reclaim() leaves the FP/Altivec state since it
doesn't necessarily always save it to the thread struct. This has lead
to an (incorrect) assumption that it leaves the checkpointed state on
the CPU.
tm_recheckpoint() has similar optimisations in reverse. It may not
always reload the checkpointed FP/Altivec registers from the thread
struct before the trecheckpoint. It is therefore quite unclear where it
expects to get the state from. This didn't help with the assumption
made about tm_reclaim().
These optimisations sit in what is by definition a slow path. If a
process has to go through a reclaim/recheckpoint then its transaction
will be doomed on returning to userspace. This mean that the process
will be unable to complete its transaction and be forced to its failure
handler. This is already an out if line case for userspace. Furthermore,
the cost of copying 64 times 128 bits from registers isn't very long[0]
(at all) on modern processors. As such it appears these optimisations
have only served to increase code complexity and are unlikely to have
had a measurable performance impact.
Our transactional memory handling has been riddled with bugs. A cause
of this has been difficulty in following the code flow, code complexity
has not been our friend here. It makes sense to remove these
optimisations in favour of a (hopefully) more stable implementation.
This patch does mean that some times the assembly will needlessly save
'junk' registers which will subsequently get overwritten with the
correct value by the C code which calls the assembly function. This
small inefficiency is far outweighed by the reduction in complexity for
general TM code, context switching paths, and transactional facility
unavailable exception handler.
0: I tried to measure it once for other work and found that it was
hiding in the noise of everything else I was working with. I find it
exceedingly likely this will be the case here.

Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec means that a userspace process can
be sent to userspace with FP or Altivec disabled and loaded only as
required (by way of an FP/Altivec unavailable exception). Transactional
Memory complicates this situation as a transaction could be started
without FP/Altivec being loaded up. This causes the hardware to
checkpoint incorrect registers. Handling FP/Altivec unavailable
exceptions while a thread is transactional requires a reclaim and
recheckpoint to ensure the CPU has correct state for both sets of
registers.
Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec cannot be done if a process is
transactional. If a facility was enabled it must remain enabled whenever
a thread is transactional.
Commit dc16b553c949 ("powerpc: Always restore FPU/VEC/VSX if hardware
transactional memory in use") ensures that the facilities are always
enabled if a thread is transactional. A bug in the introduced code may
cause it to inadvertently enable a facility that was (and should remain)
disabled. The problem with this extraneous enablement is that the
registers for the erroneously enabled facility have not been correctly
recheckpointed - the recheckpointing code assumed the facility would
remain disabled.
Further compounding the issue, the transactional {fp,altivec,vsx}
unavailable code has been incorrectly using the MSR to enable
facilities. The presence of the {FP,VEC,VSX} bit in the regs->msr simply
means if the registers are live on the CPU, not if the kernel should
load them before returning to userspace. This has worked due to the bug
mentioned above.
This causes transactional threads which return to their failure handler
to observe incorrect checkpointed registers. Perhaps an example will
help illustrate the problem:
A userspace process is running and uses both FP and Altivec registers.
This process then continues to run for some time without touching
either sets of registers. The kernel subsequently disables the
facilities as part of lazy save and restore. The userspace process then
performs a tbegin and the CPU checkpoints 'junk' FP and Altivec
registers. The process then performs a floating point instruction
triggering a fp unavailable exception in the kernel.
The kernel then loads the FP registers - and only the FP registers.
Since the thread is transactional it must perform a reclaim and
recheckpoint to ensure both the checkpointed registers and the
transactional registers are correct. It then (correctly) enables
MSR[FP] for the process. Later (on exception exist) the kernel also
(inadvertently) enables MSR[VEC]. The process is then returned to
userspace.
Since the act of loading the FP registers doomed the transaction we know
CPU will fail the transaction, restore its checkpointed registers, and
return the process to its failure handler. The problem is that we're
now running with Altivec enabled and the 'junk' checkpointed registers
are restored. The kernel had only recheckpointed FP.
This patch solves this by only activating FP/Altivec if userspace was
using them when it entered the kernel and not simply if the process is
transactional.

The OPAL calls performed in this driver shouldn't be using
opal_async_wait_response() as this performs a wait_event() which, on
long running OPAL calls could result in hung task warnings. wait_event()
prevents timely signal delivery which is also undesirable.
This patch also attempts to quieten down the use of dev_err() when
errors haven't actually occurred and also to return better information up
the stack rather than always -EIO.

This patch adds an _interruptible version of opal_async_wait_response().
This is useful when a long running OPAL call is performed on behalf of
a userspace thread, for example, the opal_flash_{read,write,erase}
functions performed by the powernv-flash MTD driver.
It is foreseeable that these functions would take upwards of two
minutes causing the wait_event() to block long enough to cause hung
task warnings. Furthermore, wait_event_interruptible() is preferable
as otherwise there is no way for signals to stop the process which is
going to be confusing in userspace.

Parallel sensor reads could run out of async tokens due to
opal_get_sensor_data grabbing tokens but then doing the sensor
read behind a mutex, essentially serializing the (possibly
asynchronous and relatively slow) sensor read.
It turns out that the mutex isn't needed at all, not only
should the OPAL interface allow concurrent reads, the implementation
is certainly safe for that, and if any sensor we were reading
from somewhere isn't, doing the mutual exclusion in the kernel
is the wrong place to do it, OPAL should be doing it for the kernel.
So, remove the mutex.
Additionally, we shouldn't be printing out an error when we don't
get a token as the only way this should happen is if we've been
interrupted in down_interruptible() on the semaphore.

Future work will add an opal_async_wait_response_interruptible()
which will call wait_event_interruptible(). This work requires extra
token state to be tracked as wait_event_interruptible() can return and
the caller could release the token before OPAL responds.
Currently token state is tracked with two bitfields which are 64 bits
big but may not need to be as OPAL informs Linux how many async tokens
there are. It also uses an array indexed by token to store response
messages for each token.
The bitfields make it difficult to add more state and also provide a
hard maximum as to how many tokens there can be - it is possible that
OPAL will inform Linux that there are more than 64 tokens.
Rather than add a bitfield to track the extra state, rework the
internals slightly.

The current code checks the completion map to look for the first token
that is complete. In some cases, a completion can come in but the
token can still be on lease to the caller processing the completion.
If this completed but unreleased token is the first token found in the
bitmap by another tasks trying to acquire a token, then the
__test_and_set_bit call will fail since the token will still be on
lease. The acquisition will then fail with an EBUSY.
This patch reorganizes the acquisition code to look at the
opal_async_token_map for an unleased token. If the token has no lease
it must have no outstanding completions so we should never see an
EBUSY, unless we have leased out too many tokens. Since
opal_async_get_token_inrerruptible is protected by a semaphore, we
will practically never see EBUSY anymore.

Presently the PSL9 specific cxl_stop_trace_psl9() only stops the RX0
traces on the CXL adapter when a PSL error irq is triggered. The patch
updates the function to stop all the traces arrays and move them to
the FIN state. The implementation issues the mmio to TRACECFG register
to stop the trace array iff it already not in FIN state. This prevents
the issue of trace data being reset in case of multiple stop mmio
issued for a single trace array.
Also the patch does some refactoring of existing cxl_stop_trace_psl9()
and cxl_stop_trace_psl8() functions by moving them to 'pci.c' from
'debugfs.c' file and marking them as static.

Currently when we take a TM Bad Thing program check exception, we
search the bug table to see if the program check was generated by a
WARN/WARN_ON etc.
That makes no sense, the WARN macros use trap instructions, which
should never generate a TM Bad Thing exception. If they ever did that
would be a bug and we should oops.
We do have some hand-coded bugs in tm.S, using EMIT_BUG_ENTRY, but
those are all BUGs not WARNs, and they all use trap instructions
anyway. Almost certainly this check was incorrectly copied from the
REASON_TRAP handling in the same function.

Currently if the hardware supports the radix MMU we will use
it, *unless* "disable_radix" is passed on the kernel command line.
However some users would like the reverse semantics. ie. The kernel
uses the hash MMU by default, unless radix is explicitly requested on
the command line.
So add a CONFIG option to choose whether we use radix by default or
not, and expand the disable_radix command line option to allow
"disable_radix=no" which *enables* radix.

CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 indicates support for the "standard" powerpc MMU
on 64-bit CPUs. The "standard" MMU refers to the hash page table MMU
found in "server" processors, from IBM mainly.
Currently CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is == CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. While it's
annoying to have two symbols that always have the same value, it's not
quite annoying enough to bother removing one.
However with the arrival of Power9, we now have the situation where
CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is enabled, but the kernel is running using the
Radix MMU - *not* the "standard" MMU. So it is now actively confusing
to use it, because it implies that code is disabled or inactive when
the Radix MMU is in use, however that is not necessarily true.
So s/CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64/CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/, and do some minor
formatting updates of some of the affected lines.
This will be a pain for backports, but c'est la vie.

In order to make generic IOV code work, the physical function IOV BAR
should start from offset of the first VF. Since M64 segments share
PE number space across PHB, and some PEs may be in use at the time
when IOV is enabled, the existing code shifts the IOV BAR to the index
of the first PE/VF. This creates a hole in IOMEM space which can be
potentially taken by some other device.
This reserves a temporary hole on a parent and releases it when IOV is
disabled; the temporary resources are stored in pci_dn to avoid

When a vdevice is DLPAR removed from the system the vio subsystem
doesn't bother unmapping the virq from the irq_domain. As a result we
have a virq mapped to a hardware irq that is no longer valid for the
irq_domain. A side effect is that we are left with /proc/irq/<irq#>
affinity entries, and attempts to modify the smp_affinity of the irq
will fail.
In the following observed example the kernel log is spammed by
ics_rtas_set_affinity errors after the removal of a VSCSI adapter.
This is a result of irqbalance trying to adjust the affinity every 10
seconds.

According to the architecture, the process table entry cache must be
flushed with tlbie RIC=2.
Currently the process table entry is set to invalid right before the
PID is returned to the allocator, with no invalidation. This works on
existing implementations that are known to not cache the process table
entry for any except the current PIDR.
It is architecturally correct and cleaner to invalidate with RIC=2
after clearing the process table entry and before the PID is returned
to the allocator. This can be done in arch_exit_mmap that runs before
the final flush, and to ensure the final flush (fullmm) is always a
RIC=2 variant.

While registering the cpuhoplug callbacks for core-imc, if we fails
in the cpuhotplug online path for any random core (either because opal call to
initialize the core-imc counters fails or because memory allocation fails for
that core), ppc_core_imc_cpu_offline() will get invoked for other cpus who
successfully returned from cpuhotplug online path.
But in the ppc_core_imc_cpu_offline() path we are trying to migrate the event
context, when core-imc counters are not even initialized. Thus creating the
above stack dump.
Add a check to see if core-imc counters are enabled or not in the cpuhotplug
offline path before migrating the context to handle this failing scenario.

belong to kernel text
This makes the changes introduced in commit 83e840c770f2c5
("powerpc64/elfv1: Only dereference function descriptor for non-text
symbols") to be specific to the kprobe subsystem.
We previously changed ppc_function_entry() to always check the provided
address to confirm if it needed to be dereferenced. This is actually
only an issue for kprobe blacklisted asm labels (through use of
_ASM_NOKPROBE_SYMBOL) and can cause other issues with ftrace. Also, the
additional checks are not really necessary for our other uses.
As such, move this check to the kprobes subsystem.

kernel_text_address() itself gets traced and we end up in a recursive
loop.

Commit 07d2a628bc00 ("powerpc/64s: Avoid cpabort in context switch
when possible", 2017-06-09) changed the definition of PPC_INST_COPY
and in so doing inadvertently broke the check for copy/paste
instructions in the alignment fault handler. The check currently
matches no instructions.
This fixes it by ANDing both sides of the comparison with the mask.

When setting nr_cpus=1, we observed a crash in IMC code during boot
due to a missing allocation: basically, IMC code is taking the number
of threads into account in imc_mem_init() and if we manually set
nr_cpus for a value that is not multiple of the number of threads per
core, an integer division in that function will discard the decimal
portion, leading IMC to not allocate one mem_info struct. This causes
a NULL pointer dereference later, on is_core_imc_mem_inited().
This patch just rounds that division up, fixing the bug.

Although kfree(NULL) is legal, it's a bit lazy to rely on that to
implement the error handling. So do it the normal Linux way using

In the hv-24x7 code there is a function memord() which tries to
implement a sort function return -1, 0, 1. However one of the
conditions is incorrect, such that it can never be true, because we
will have already returned.
I don't believe there is a bug in practice though, because the
comparisons are an optimisation prior to calling memcmp().
Fix it by swapping the second comparision, so it can be true.

Back in 2008 we added support for "fast little-endian switch" in the
syscall path. This added a special case syscall number 0x1ebe, which
is caught very early in the system call exception and switches endian
with as little overhead as possible. See commit 745a14cc264b
("[POWERPC] Add fast little-endian switch system call") for full
details.
Although it is fast, it's also completely non standard. The "syscall
number" is out of the range of normal syscalls, it can't be traced or
audited, and it's a bit of a wart. To the best of our knowledge it was
only used by one program, now long since discontinued.
So in an effort to shake out any current users, put it behind a config
option, and make it default n. If anyone *is* using it they can
quickly reinstate it with a rebuild, and we can flip it to default y.

When dumping the paca in xmon we currently show kstack. Although it's
not hard it's a bit fiddly to work out what the bounds of the kernel
stack should be based on the kstack value.
To make life easier and "kstack_base" which is the base (lowest
address) of the kernel stack, eg:
kstack = 0xc0000000f1a7be30 (0x258)
kstack_base = 0xc0000000f1a78000

i2c-dev provides an interface for userspace programs to interact with I2C

Enable it in pseries_defconfig and powernv_defconfig. It's already enabled
in many other powerpc defconfigs.
