The sources for the powerpc selftests are arranged into sub-directories.
However when the tests are built and installed, the sub-directories are
squashed, losing the structure.
For example, with the current code the result of installing the selftests is:
$ tree tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_install
tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_install
├── kselftest
│ ├── ktap_helpers.sh
│ ├── module.sh
│ ├── prefix.pl
│ └── runner.sh
├── kselftest-list.txt
├── powerpc
│ ├── alignment_handler
│ ├── attr_test
│ ├── back_to_back_ebbs_test
│ ├── bad_accesses
│ ├── bhrb_filter_map_test
│ ├── bhrb_no_crash_wo_pmu_test
│ ├── blacklisted_events_test
│ ├── cache_shape
│ ├── close_clears_pmcc_test
│ ├── context_switch
│ ├── copy_first_unaligned
...
│ ├── settings
...
│ └── wild_bctr
└── run_kselftest.sh
All the powerpc tests are squashed into the single powerpc directory. In
particular, note that there is a single `settings` file, even though
there are multiple settings files in the powerpc selftest sources. One
of the settings files ends up installed, depending on install order,
even if they have different contents.
Similarly if there were two tests with the same name in different
sub-directories they would clobber each other.
Fix it by replicating the directory structure of the source tree into
the install directory. The result being for example:
$ tree tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_install
tools/testing/selftests/kselftest_install
├── kselftest
│ ├── ktap_helpers.sh
│ ├── module.sh
│ ├── prefix.pl
│ └── runner.sh
├── kselftest-list.txt
├── powerpc
│ ├── alignment
│ │ ├── alignment_handler
│ │ └── copy_first_unaligned
│ ├── benchmarks
│ │ ├── context_switch
│ │ ├── exec_target
│ │ ├── fork
│ │ ├── futex_bench
│ │ ├── gettimeofday
│ │ ├── mmap_bench
│ │ ├── null_syscall
│ │ └── settings
...
│ ├── eeh
│ │ ├── eeh-basic.sh
│ │ ├── eeh-functions.sh
│ │ └── settings
...
│ └── vphn
│ └── test-vphn
└── run_kselftest.sh
Note multiple settings files in different sub-directories.
This change also has the effect of changing the names of the tests from
the point of view of the kselftest runner. Before the tests are named
eg:
powerpc:copy_first_unaligned
powerpc:cache_shape
powerpc:reg_access_test
After, the test collection names include the sub-directory:
powerpc/alignment:copy_first_unaligned
powerpc/cache_shape:cache_shape
powerpc/pmu/ebb:reg_access_test
That means whereas previously all powerpc tests could be run with:
$ ./run_kselftest.sh -c powerpc
After the change it's necessary to pass a regex that matches all powerpc
entries, eg:
$ ./run_kselftest.sh -c "powerpc.*"
The latter form also works before and after the change.

plpar_hcall(), plpar_hcall9(), and related functions expect callers to
provide valid result buffers of certain minimum size. Currently this
is communicated only through comments in the code and the compiler has
no idea.
For example, if I write a bug like this:
long retbuf[PLPAR_HCALL_BUFSIZE]; // should be PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE
plpar_hcall9(H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, retbuf, ...);
This compiles with no diagnostics emitted, but likely results in stack
corruption at runtime when plpar_hcall9() stores results past the end
of the array. (To be clear this is a contrived example and I have not
found a real instance yet.)
To make this class of error less likely, we can use explicitly-sized
array parameters instead of pointers in the declarations for the hcall
APIs. When compiled with -Warray-bounds[1], the code above now
provokes a diagnostic like this:
error: array argument is too small;

Because pmac_probe() is called before mem_topology_setup(), the min/

ignore the allocation, because the checks against the PFN fail. Then
kmemleak_no_scan() can't find the allocation and prints warning.

When a device is hot removed on powernv, the hotplug driver clears
the device's state. However, on pseries, if a device is removed by
phyp after reaching the error threshold, the kernel remains unaware,
leading to the device not being torn down. This prevents necessary
remediation actions like failover.
Permanently disable the device if the presence check fails.
Also, in eeh_dev_check_failure in we may consider the error as false
positive if the device is hotpluged out as the get_state call returns
EEH_STATE_NOT_SUPPORT and we may end up not clearing the device state,
so log the event if the state is not moved to permanent failure state.

The patch titled ("powerpc: make fadump resilient with memory add/remove
events") has made significant changes to the implementation of fadump,
particularly on elfcorehdr creation and fadump crash info header
structure. Therefore, updating the fadump implementation documentation
to reflect those changes.
Following updates are done to firmware assisted dump documentation:
1. The elfcorehdr is no longer stored after fadump HDR in the reserved
dump area. Instead, the second kernel dynamically allocates memory
for the elfcorehdr within the address range from 0 to the boot memory
size. Therefore, update figures 1 and 2 of Memory Reservation during
the first and second kernels to reflect this change.
2. A version field has been added to the fadump header to manage the
future changes to fadump crash info header structure without changing
the fadump header magic number in the future. Therefore, remove the
corresponding TODO from the document.

The elfcorehdr describes the CPUs and memory of the crashed kernel to
the kernel that captures the dump, known as the second or fadump kernel.
The elfcorehdr needs to be updated if the system's memory changes due to
memory hotplug or online/offline events.
Currently, memory hotplug events are monitored in userspace by udev
rules, and fadump is re-registered, which recreates the elfcorehdr with
the latest available memory in the system.
However, the previous patch ("powerpc: make fadump resilient with memory
add/remove events") moved the creation of elfcorehdr to the second or
fadump kernel. This eliminates the need to regenerate the elfcorehdr
during memory hotplug or online/offline events.
Create a sysfs entry at /sys/kernel/fadump/hotplug_ready to let
userspace know that fadump re-registration is not required for memory
add/remove events.

Due to changes in memory resources caused by either memory hotplug or
online/offline events, the elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and
memory of the crashed kernel to the kernel that collects the dump (known
as second/fadump kernel), becomes outdated. Consequently, attempting
dump collection with an outdated elfcorehdr can lead to failed or
inaccurate dump collection.
Memory hotplug or online/offline events is referred as memory add/remove
events in reset of the commit message.
The current solution to address the aforementioned issue is as follows:
Monitor memory add/remove events in userspace using udev rules, and
re-register fadump whenever there are changes in memory resources. This
leads to the creation of a new elfcorehdr with updated system memory
information.
There are several notable issues associated with re-registering fadump
for every memory add/remove events.
1. Bulk memory add/remove events with udev-based fadump re-registration
can lead to race conditions and, more importantly, it creates a wide
window during which fadump is inactive until all memory add/remove
events are settled.
2. Re-registering fadump for every memory add/remove event is
inefficient.
3. The memory for elfcorehdr is allocated based on the memblock regions
available during early boot and remains fixed thereafter. However, if
elfcorehdr is later recreated with additional memblock regions, its
size will increase, potentially leading to memory corruption.
Address the aforementioned challenges by shifting the creation of
elfcorehdr from the first kernel (also referred as the crashed kernel),
where it was created and frequently recreated for every memory
add/remove event, to the fadump kernel. As a result, the elfcorehdr only
needs to be created once, thus eliminating the necessity to re-register
fadump during memory add/remove events.
At present, the first kernel prepares fadump header and stores it in the
fadump reserved area. The fadump header includes the start address of
the elfcorehdr, crashing CPU details, and other relevant information. In
the event of a crash in the first kernel, the second/fadump boots and
accesses the fadump header prepared by the first kernel. It then
performs the following steps in a platform-specific function
[rtas|opal]_fadump_process:
1. Sanity check for fadump header
2. Update CPU notes in elfcorehdr
Along with the above, update the setup_fadump()/fadump.c to create
elfcorehdr and set its address to the global variable elfcorehdr_addr
for the vmcore module to process it in the second/fadump kernel.
Section below outlines the information required to create the elfcorehdr
and the changes made to make it available to the fadump kernel if it's
not already.
To create elfcorehdr, the following crashed kernel information is
required: CPU notes, vmcoreinfo, and memory ranges.
At present, the CPU notes are already prepared in the fadump kernel, so
no changes are needed in that regard. The fadump kernel has access to
all crashed kernel memory regions, including boot memory regions that
are relocated by firmware to fadump reserved areas, so no changes for
that either. However, it is necessary to add new members to the fadump
header, i.e., the 'fadump_crash_info_header' structure, in order to pass
the crashed kernel's vmcoreinfo address and its size to fadump kernel.
In addition to the vmcoreinfo address and size, there are a few other
attributes also added to the fadump_crash_info_header structure.
1. version:
It stores the fadump header version, which is currently set to 1.
This provides flexibility to update the fadump crash info header in
the future without changing the magic number. For each change in the
fadump header, the version will be increased. This will help the
updated kernel determine how to handle kernel dumps from older
kernels. The magic number remains relevant for checking fadump header
corruption.
2. pt_regs_sz/cpu_mask_sz:
Store size of pt_regs and cpu_mask structure of first kernel. These
attributes are used to prevent dump processing if the sizes of
pt_regs or cpu_mask structure differ between the first and fadump
kernels.
Note: if either first/crashed kernel or second/fadump kernel do not have
the changes introduced here then kernel fail to collect the dump and
prints relevant error message on the console.

When there are no options specified for lparstat, it is expected to
give reports since LPAR(Logical Partition) boot.
APP(Available Processor Pool) is an indicator of how many cores in the
shared pool are free to use in Shared Processor LPAR(SPLPAR). APP is
derived using pool_idle_time which is obtained using H_PIC call.
The interval based reports show correct APP value while since boot
report shows very high APP values. This happens because in that case APP
is obtained by dividing pool idle time by LPAR uptime. Since pool idle
time is reported by the PowerVM hypervisor since its boot, it need not
align with LPAR boot.
To fix that export boot pool idle time in lparcfg and powerpc-utils will
use this info to derive APP as below for since boot reports.
APP = (pool idle time - boot pool idle time) / (uptime * timebase)
Results:: Observe APP values.

Extend the arch crash hotplug handler, as introduced by the patch title
("powerpc: add crash CPU hotplug support"), to also support memory
add/remove events.
Elfcorehdr describes the memory of the crash kernel to capture the
kernel; hence, it needs to be updated if memory resources change due to
memory add/remove events. Therefore, arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event()
is updated to recreate the elfcorehdr and replace it with the previous
one on memory add/remove events.
The memblock list is used to prepare the elfcorehdr. In the case of
memory hot remove, the memblock list is updated after the arch crash
hotplug handler is triggered, as depicted in Figure 1. Thus, the
hot-removed memory is explicitly removed from the crash memory ranges
to ensure that the memory ranges added to elfcorehdr do not include the
hot-removed memory.

There are two system calls, `kexec_file_load` and `kexec_load`, used to
load the kdump image. A few changes have been made to ensure that the
kernel can safely update the elfcorehdr component of the kdump image for
both system calls.
For the kexec_file_load syscall, kdump image is prepared in the kernel.
To support an increasing number of memory regions, the elfcorehdr is
built with extra buffer space to ensure that it can accommodate
additional memory ranges in future.
For the kexec_load syscall, the elfcorehdr is updated only if the
KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT kexec flag is passed to the kernel by the
kexec tool. Passing this flag to the kernel indicates that the
elfcorehdr is built to accommodate additional memory ranges and the
elfcorehdr segment is not considered for SHA calculation, making it safe
to update.
The changes related to this feature are kept under the CRASH_HOTPLUG
config, and it is enabled by default.

Due to CPU/Memory hotplug or online/offline events, the elfcorehdr
(which describes the CPUs and memory of the crashed kernel) and FDT
(Flattened Device Tree) of kdump image becomes outdated. Consequently,
attempting dump collection with an outdated elfcorehdr or FDT can lead
to failed or inaccurate dump collection.
Going forward, CPU hotplug or online/offline events are referred as
CPU/Memory add/remove events.
The current solution to address the above issue involves monitoring the
CPU/Memory add/remove events in userspace using udev rules and whenever
there are changes in CPU and memory resources, the entire kdump image
is loaded again. The kdump image includes kernel, initrd, elfcorehdr,
FDT, purgatory. Given that only elfcorehdr and FDT get outdated due to
CPU/Memory add/remove events, reloading the entire kdump image is
inefficient. More importantly, kdump remains inactive for a substantial
amount of time until the kdump reload completes.
To address the aforementioned issue, commit 247262756121 ("crash: add
generic infrastructure for crash hotplug support") added a generic
infrastructure that allows architectures to selectively update the kdump
image component during CPU or memory add/remove events within the kernel
itself.
In the event of a CPU or memory add/remove events, the generic crash
hotplug event handler, `crash_handle_hotplug_event()`, is triggered. It
then acquires the necessary locks to update the kdump image and invokes
the architecture-specific crash hotplug handler,
`arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event()`, to update the required kdump image
components.
This patch adds crash hotplug handler for PowerPC and enable support to
update the kdump image on CPU add/remove events. Support for memory
add/remove events is added in a subsequent patch with the title
"powerpc: add crash memory hotplug support"
As mentioned earlier, only the elfcorehdr and FDT kdump image components
need to be updated in the event of CPU or memory add/remove events.
However, on PowerPC architecture crash hotplug handler only updates the
FDT to enable crash hotplug support for CPU add/remove events. Here's
why.
The elfcorehdr on PowerPC is built with possible CPUs, and thus, it does
not need an update on CPU add/remove events. On the other hand, the FDT
needs to be updated on CPU add events to include the newly added CPU. If
the FDT is not updated and the kernel crashes on a newly added CPU, the
kdump kernel will fail to boot due to the unavailability of the crashing
CPU in the FDT. During the early boot, it is expected that the boot CPU
must be a part of the FDT; otherwise, the kernel will raise a BUG and
fail to boot. For more information, refer to commit 36ae37e3436b0
("powerpc: Make boot_cpuid common between 32 and 64-bit"). Since it is
okay to have an offline CPU in the kdump FDT, no action is taken in case
of CPU removal.
There are two system calls, `kexec_file_load` and `kexec_load`, used to
load the kdump image. Few changes have been made to ensure kernel can
safely update the FDT of kdump image loaded using both system calls.
For kexec_file_load syscall the kdump image is prepared in kernel. So to
support an increasing number of CPUs, the FDT is constructed with extra
buffer space to ensure it can accommodate a possible number of CPU
nodes. Additionally, a call to fdt_pack (which trims the unused space
once the FDT is prepared) is avoided if this feature is enabled.
For the kexec_load syscall, the FDT is updated only if the
KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT kexec flag is passed to the kernel by
userspace (kexec tools). When userspace passes this flag to the kernel,
it indicates that the FDT is built to accommodate possible CPUs, and the
FDT segment is excluded from SHA calculation, making it safe to update.
The changes related to this feature are kept under the CRASH_HOTPLUG
config, and it is enabled by default.

Commit a72bbec70da2 ("crash: hotplug support for kexec_load()")
introduced a new kexec flag, `KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR`. Kexec tool uses
this flag to indicate to the kernel that it is safe to modify the
elfcorehdr of the kdump image loaded using the kexec_load system call.
However, it is possible that architectures may need to update kexec
segments other then elfcorehdr. For example, FDT (Flatten Device Tree)
on PowerPC. Introducing a new kexec flag for every new kexec segment
may not be a good solution. Hence, a generic kexec flag bit,
`KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT`, is introduced to share the CPU/Memory
hotplug support intent between the kexec tool and the kernel for the
kexec_load system call.
Now we have two kexec flags that enables crash hotplug support for
kexec_load system call. First is KEXEC_UPDATE_ELFCOREHDR (only used in
x86), and second is KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT (for all architectures).
To simplify the process of finding and reporting the crash hotplug
support the following changes are introduced.
1. Define arch specific function to process the kexec flags and
determine crash hotplug support
2. Rename the @update_elfcorehdr member of struct kimage to
@hotplug_support and populate it for both kexec_load and
kexec_file_load syscalls, because architecture can update more than
one kexec segment
3. Let generic function crash_check_hotplug_support report hotplug
support for loaded kdump image based on value of @hotplug_support
To bring the x86 crash hotplug support in line with the above points,
the following changes have been made:
- Introduce the arch_crash_hotplug_support function to process kexec
flags and determine crash hotplug support
- Remove the arch_crash_hotplug_[cpu|memory]_support functions

In the event of memory hotplug or online/offline events, the crash
memory hotplug notifier `crash_memhp_notifier()` receives a
`memory_notify` object but doesn't forward that object to the
generic and architecture-specific crash hotplug handler.
The `memory_notify` object contains the starting PFN (Page Frame Number)
and the number of pages in the hot-removed memory. This information is
necessary for architectures like PowerPC to update/recreate the kdump
image, specifically `elfcorehdr`.
So update the function signature of `crash_handle_hotplug_event()` and
`arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event()` to accept the `memory_notify` object
as an argument from crash memory hotplug notifier.
Since no such object is available in the case of CPU hotplug event, the
crash CPU hotplug notifier `crash_cpuhp_online()` passes NULL to the
crash hotplug handler.

The value specified for the memory limit is used to set a restriction on
memory usage. It is important to ensure that this restriction is within
the linear map kernel address space range. The hash page table
translation uses a 16MB page size to map the kernel linear map address
space. htab_bolt_mapping() function aligns down the size of the range
while mapping kernel linear address space. Since the memblock limit is
enforced very early during boot, before we can detect the type of memory
translation (radix vs hash), we align the memory limit value specified
as a kernel parameter to 16MB. This alignment value will work for both
hash and radix translations.

nmi_enter()/nmi_exit() touches per cpu variables which can lead to kernel
crash when invoked during real mode interrupt handling (e.g. early HMI/MCE
interrupt handler) if percpu allocation comes from vmalloc area.
Early HMI/MCE handlers are called through DEFINE_INTERRUPT_HANDLER_NMI()
wrapper which invokes nmi_enter/nmi_exit calls. We don't see any issue when
percpu allocation is from the embedded first chunk. However with
CONFIG_NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK enabled there are chances where percpu
allocation can come from the vmalloc area.
With kernel command line "percpu_alloc=page" we can force percpu allocation
to come from vmalloc area and can see kernel crash in machine_check_early:
[ 1.215714] NIP [c000000000e49eb4] rcu_nmi_enter+0x24/0x110

When KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS are enabled, one can trigger the
"Unpatched return thunk in use. This should not happen!"
catch-all warning.
Usually, when objtool runs on the .o objects, it does generate a section
.return_sites which contains all offsets in the objects to the return
thunks of the functions present there. Those return thunks then get
patched at runtime by the alternatives.
KCSAN and CONSTRUCTORS add this to the object file's .text.startup
section:
-------------------
Disassembly of section .text.startup:

-------------------
which, if it is built as a module goes through the intermediary stage of
creating a <module>.mod.c file which, when translated, receives a second
constructor:

Objtool has run already so that second constructor's return thunk cannot
be added to the .return_sites section and thus the return thunk remains
unpatched and the warning rightfully fires.

do not contain data races one would be interested about.

The -Woverride-init warn about code that may be intentional or not,
but the inintentional ones tend to be real bugs, so there is a bit of
disagreement on whether this warning option should be enabled by default
and we have multiple settings in scripts/Makefile.extrawarn as well as
individual subsystems.
Older versions of clang only supported -Wno-initializer-overrides with
the same meaning as gcc's -Woverride-init, though all supported versions
now work with both. Because of this difference, an earlier cleanup of
mine accidentally turned the clang warning off for W=1 builds and only
left it on for W=2, while it's still enabled for gcc with W=1.
There is also one driver that only turns the warning off for newer
versions of gcc but not other compilers, and some but not all the
Makefiles still use a cc-disable-warning conditional that is no
longer needed with supported compilers here.
Address all of the above by removing the special cases for clang
and always turning the warning off unconditionally where it got
in the way, using the syntax that is supported by both compilers.
