Anton Blanchard reported that his 4096 vcpu KVM guest took around 30
minutes to boot. He also analyzed it to the time taken to iterate while
setting the cpu_core_mask.
Further analysis shows that cpu_core_mask and cpu_cpu_mask for any CPU
would be equal on Power. However updating cpu_core_mask took forever to
update as its a per cpu cpumask variable. Instead cpu_cpu_mask was a per
NODE /per DIE cpumask that was shared by all the respective CPUs.
Also cpu_cpu_mask is needed from a scheduler perspective. However
cpu_core_map is an exported symbol. Hence stop updating cpu_core_map
and make it point to cpu_cpu_mask.

We have smp_ops->cpu_die() and ppc_md.cpu_die(). One of them offlines
the current CPU and one offlines another CPU, can you guess which is
which? Also one is in smp_ops and one is in ppc_md?
So rename ppc_md.cpu_die(), to cpu_offline_self(), because that's what
it does. And move it into smp_ops where it belongs.

Add support for grouping cores based on the device-tree classification.
- The last domain in the associativity domains always refers to the
core.
- If primary reference domain happens to be the penultimate domain in
the associativity domains device-tree property, then there are no
coregroups. However if its not a penultimate domain, then there are
coregroups. There can be more than one coregroup. For now we would be
interested in the last or the smallest coregroups, i.e one sub-group
per DIE.
Currently there are no firmwares that are exposing this grouping. Hence
allow the basis for grouping to be abstract. Once the firmware starts
using this grouping, code would be added to detect the type of grouping
and adjust the sd domain flags accordingly.

On Power9, a pair of SMT4 cores can be presented by the firmware as a SMT8
core for backward compatibility reasons, with the fusion of two SMT4 cores.
Powerpc allows LPARs to be live migrated from Power8 to Power9. Existing
software developed/configured for Power8, expects to see a SMT8 core.
In order to maintain userspace backward compatibility (with Power8 chips in
case of Power9) in enterprise Linux systems, the topology_sibling_cpumask
has to be set to SMT8 core.
cpu_smt_mask() should generally point to the cpu mask of the SMT4 core.
Hence override the default cpu_smt_mask() to be powerpc specific
allowing for better scheduling behaviour on Power.

The last caller was removed in 2014 in commit fb5a515704d7 ("powerpc:
Remove platforms/wsp and associated pieces").
As Jordan noticed even though there are no callers, the code above in
fsl_secondary_thread_init() falls through into
generic_secondary_thread_init(). So we can remove the _GLOBAL but not
the body of the function.
However because fsl_secondary_thread_init() is inside #ifdef
CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E, we can never reach the body of
generic_secondary_thread_init() unless CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E is enabled,
so we can wrap the whole thing in a single #ifdef.

This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.
Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
- It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
overflows.
- Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
making a number of attacks more difficult.
This has the following consequences:
- thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
- The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
CONFIG_SMP is active.
- thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.
This patch:
- Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
- Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
- Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
- Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without
including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
between ASM constants and C constants.
- Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
argument.

On IBM POWER9, the device tree exposes a property array identifed by
"ibm,thread-groups" which will indicate which groups of threads share
a particular set of resources.
As of today we only have one form of grouping identifying the group of
threads in the core that share the L1 cache, translation cache and
instruction data flow.
This patch adds helper functions to parse the contents of
"ibm,thread-groups" and populate a per-cpu variable to cache
information about siblings of each CPU that share the L1, traslation
cache and instruction data-flow.
It also defines a new global variable named "has_big_cores" which
indicates if the cores on this configuration have multiple groups of
threads that share L1 cache.
For each online CPU, it maintains a cpu_smallcore_mask, which
indicates the online siblings which share the L1-cache with it.

There is an asynchronous aspect to smp_send_nmi_ipi. The caller waits
for all CPUs to call in to the handler, but it does not wait for
completion of the handler. This is a needless complication, so remove
it and always wait synchronously.
The synchronous wait allows the caller to easily time out and clear
the wait for completion (zero nmi_ipi_busy_count) in the case of badly
behaved handlers. This would have prevented the recent smp_send_stop
NMI IPI bug from causing the system to hang.

Currently the options we have for sending NMIs are not necessarily
safe, that is they can potentially interrupt a CPU in a
non-recoverable region of code, meaning the kernel must then panic().
But we'd like to use smp_send_nmi_ipi() to do cross-CPU calls in
situations where we don't want to risk a panic(), because it doesn't
have the requirement that interrupts must be enabled like
smp_call_function().
So add an API for the caller to indicate that it wants to use the NMI
infrastructure, but doesn't want to do anything "unsafe".
Currently that is implemented by not actually calling cause_nmi_ipi(),
instead falling back to an IPI. In future we can pass the safe
parameter down to cause_nmi_ipi() and the individual backends can
potentially take it into account before deciding what to do.

Change the paca array into an array of pointers to pacas. Allocate
pacas individually.
This allows flexibility in where the PACAs are allocated. Future work
will allocate them node-local. Platforms that don't have address limits
on PACAs would be able to defer PACA allocations until later in boot
rather than allocate all possible ones up-front then freeing unused.
This is slightly more overhead (one additional indirection) for cross
CPU paca references, but those aren't too common.

Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based
hardlockup detector.
The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going through
perf. Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that would
prevent the perf detector from working in those regions.
Additionally, implement a SMP based detector where all CPUs watch one
another by pinging a shared cpumask. This is because powerpc Book3S
does not have a true periodic local NMI, but some platforms do implement
a true NMI IPI.
If a CPU is stuck with interrupts hard disabled, the soft-NMI watchdog
does not work, but the SMP watchdog will. Even on platforms without a
true NMI IPI to get a good trace from the stuck CPU, other CPUs will
notice the lockup sufficiently to report it and panic.

Some powerpc platforms use this to move IRQs away from a CPU being
unplugged. This function has several bugs such as not taking the right
locks or failing to NULL check pointers.
There's a new generic function doing exactly the same thing without all
the bugs, so let's use it instead.
mpe: The obvious place for the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION is on
HOTPLUG_CPU, but that doesn't work. On some configs PM_SLEEP_SMP will
select HOTPLUG_CPU even though its dependencies are not met, which means
the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION doesn't happen. That leads to the
build breaking. Fix it by moving the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION to

Some platforms (will) need to perform allocations before bringing
a new CPU online. Doing it from smp_ops->setup_cpu is the wrong
thing to do:
- It has no useful failure path (too late)
- Calling any allocator will enable interrupts prematurely
causing problems with large decrementer among others
Instead, add a new callback that is called from __cpu_up (so from
the context trying to online the new CPU) at a point where we
can safely allocate and handle failures.
This will be used by XIVE support.

Commit 2965faa5e03d ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.
Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass() invokes smp_ops->cause_ipi, which
uses an ioremapped address to access registers on the XICS
interrupt controller to cause the IPI. Because of this real
mode callers cannot call smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass() for IPI
messaging.
This patch creates a separate function smp_muxed_ipi_set_message
just to set the IPI message without the cause_ipi routine.
After calling this function to set the IPI message, real
mode callers must cause the IPI by writing to the XICS registers
directly.
As part of this, we also change smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass
to call smp_muxed_ipi_set_message to set the message instead

This patch increases the number of demuxed messages for a
controller with a single ipi to 8 for 64-bit systems.
This is required because we want to use the IPI mechanism
to send messages from a CPU running in KVM real mode in a
guest to a CPU in the host to take some action. Currently,
we only support 4 messages and all 4 are already taken.
Define a fifth message PPC_MSG_RM_HOST_ACTION for this
purpose.

smp_ops->probe() is currently supposed to return the number of cpus in
the system.
The last actual usage of the value was removed in May 2007 in e147ec8f1808
"[POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers". We still passed the value around
until June 2010 when even that was finally removed in c1aa687d499a
"powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase".
So drop that requirement, probe() now returns void, and update all
implementations.

The celleb code has seen no actual development for ~7 years.
We (maintainers) have no access to test hardware, and it is highly
likely the code has bit-rotted.
As far as we're aware the hardware was never widely available, and is
certainly no longer available, and no one on the list has shown any
interest in it over the years.
So remove it. If anyone has one and cares please speak up.

Remove slice_set_psize() which is not used.
It was added in 3a8247cc2c85 "powerpc: Only demote individual slices
rather than whole process" but was never used.
Remove vsx_assist_exception() which is not used.
It was added in ce48b2100785 "powerpc: Add VSX context save/restore,
ptrace and signal support" but was never used.
Remove generic_mach_cpu_die() which is not used.
Its last caller was removed in 375f561a4131 "powerpc/powernv: Always go
into nap mode when CPU is offline".
Remove mpc7448_hpc2_power_off() and mpc7448_hpc2_halt() which are
unused.
These were introduced in c5d56332fd6c "[POWERPC] Add general support for

As part of the support for split core on POWER8, we want to be able to
block splitting of the core while KVM VMs are active.
The logic to do that would be exactly the same as the code we currently
have for inhibiting onlining of secondaries.
Instead of adding an identical mechanism to block split core, rework the
secondary inhibit code to be a "HV KVM is active" check. We can then use
that in both the cpu hotplug code and the upcoming split core code.

For scalability and performance reasons, we want the tick broadcast IPIs
to be handled as efficiently as possible. Fixed IPI messages
are one of the most efficient mechanisms available - they are faster than
the smp_call_function mechanism because the IPI handlers are fixed and hence
they don't involve costly operations such as adding IPI handlers to the target
CPU's function queue, acquiring locks for synchronization etc.
Luckily we have an unused IPI message slot, so use that to implement
tick broadcast IPIs efficiently.

The IPI handlers for both PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC and PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE map
to a common implementation - generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(). So,
we can consolidate them and save one of the IPI message slots, (which are
precious on powerpc, since only 4 of those slots are available).
So, implement the functionality of PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE using
PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC itself and release its IPI message slot, so that it can be
used for something else in the future, if desired.

Up until now we have only used cpu_to_chip_id() in the topology code,
which is only used on SMP builds. However my recent commit a4da0d5
"Implement arch_get_random_long/int() for powernv" added a usage when
SMP=n, breaking the build.
Move cpu_to_chip_id() into prom.c so it is available for SMP=n builds.
We would move the extern to prom.h, but that breaks the include in
topology.h. Instead we leave it in smp.h, but move it out of the
CONFIG_SMP #ifdef. We also need to include asm/smp.h in rng.c, because
the linux version skips asm/smp.h on UP. What a mess.

When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the
siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today
for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in
update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly
update all thread siblings during a topology change.
Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in
init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop.
This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread
moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will
have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group
struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without
the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform
with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes).
When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach
the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will
be stuck at this point.
The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef0 (v3.9).

This fixes these errors when building UP with CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=y:
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv.c:1855:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'inhibit_secondary_onlining' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv.c:1862:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'uninhibit_secondary_onlining' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
and this error (with CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64=m, or a vmlinux link error
with CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64=y):
ERROR: "smp_send_reschedule" [arch/powerpc/kvm/kvm.ko] undefined!
make[2]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
The fix for the link error is suboptimal; ideally we want a self_ipi()
function from irq.c, connected at least to the MPIC code, to initiate
an IPI to this cpu. The fix here at least lets the code build, and it
will work, just with interrupts being delayed sometimes.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.
This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.
Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

When a Book3S HV KVM guest is running, we need the host to be in
single-thread mode, that is, all of the cores (or at least all of
the cores where the KVM guest could run) to be running only one
active hardware thread. This is because of the hardware restriction
in POWER processors that all of the hardware threads in the core
must be in the same logical partition. Complying with this restriction
is much easier if, from the host kernel's point of view, only one
hardware thread is active.
This adds two hooks in the SMP hotplug code to allow the KVM code to
make sure that secondary threads (i.e. hardware threads other than
thread 0) cannot come online while any KVM guest exists. The KVM
code still has to check that any core where it runs a guest has the
secondary threads offline, but having done that check it can now be
sure that they will not come online while the guest is running.

This adds more generic support for doing CPU hotplug with a simple
idle loop and no actual reset of the processors. The generic
smp_generic_kick_cpu() does the hotplug bringup trick if the PACA
shows that the CPU has already been started at boot and we provide
an accessor for the CPU state.

The cell iic interrupt controller has enough software caused interrupts
to use a unique interrupt for each of the 4 messages powerpc uses.
This means each interrupt gets its own irq action/data combination.
Use the seperate, optimized, arch common ipi action functions
registered via the helper smp_request_message_ipi instead passing the
message as action data to a single action that then demultipexes to
the required acton via a switch statement.
smp_request_message_ipi will register the action as IRQF_PER_CPU
and IRQF_DISABLED, and WARN if the allocation fails for some reason,
so no need to print on that failure. It will return positive if
the message will not be used by the kernel, in which case we can
free the virq.
In addition to elimiating inefficient code, this also corrects the
error that a kernel built with kexec but without a debugger would
not register the ipi for kdump to notify the other cpus of a crash.
This also restores the debugger action to be static to kernel/smp.c.

Compile the new smp ipi mux and demux code only if a platform
will make use of it. The new config is selected as required.
The new cause_ipi smp op is only available conditionally to point out
configs where the select is required; this makes setting the op an
immediate fail instead of a deferred unresolved symbol at link.
This also creates a new config for power surge powermac upgrade support
that can be disabled in expert mode but is default on.
I also removed the depends / default y on CONFIG_XICS since it is selected
by PSERIES.
