git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Stop synchronizing kernel log buffer readers by logbuf_lock. As a
result, the access to the buffer is fully lockless now.
Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
future.
- kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
removal.
- Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
given pointer.
- Show also page flags by %pGp format.
- Clarify the documentation for plain pointer printing.
- Do not show no_hash_pointers warning multiple times.
- Update Senozhatsky email address.
- Some clean up.

callers of the _nolock() variants.
The functions without _nolock() were chosen because they are already

Rather than storing the iterator information in the registered
kmsg_dumper structure, create a separate iterator structure. The
kmsg_dump_iter structure can reside on the stack of the caller, thus
allowing lockless use of the kmsg_dump functions.
Update code that accesses the kernel logs using the kmsg_dumper
structure to use the new kmsg_dump_iter structure. For kmsg_dumpers,
this also means adding a call to kmsg_dump_rewind() to initialize
the iterator.
All this is in preparation for removal of @logbuf_lock.

Function names should tell what the function does, not how.
mfsrin() and mtsrin() are read/writing segment registers.
They are called that way because they are using mfsrin and mtsrin
instructions, but it doesn't matter for the caller.

in order to make it obvious they manipulate segment registers without

From Nick's cover letter:
Linux powerpc new system call instruction and ABI
System Call Vectored (scv) ABI
==============================
The scv instruction is introduced with POWER9 / ISA3, it comes with an
rfscv counter-part. The benefit of these instructions is
performance (trading slower SRR0/1 with faster LR/CTR registers, and
entering the kernel with MSR[EE] and MSR[RI] left enabled, which can
reduce MSR updates. The scv instruction has 128 levels (not enough to
cover the Linux system call space).
Assignment and advertisement
----------------------------
The proposal is to assign scv levels conservatively, and advertise
them with HWCAP feature bits as we add support for more.
Linux has not enabled FSCR[SCV] yet, so executing the scv instruction
will cause the kernel to log a "SCV facility unavilable" message, and
deliver a SIGILL with ILL_ILLOPC to the process. Linux has defined a
HWCAP2 bit PPC_FEATURE2_SCV for SCV support, but does not set it.
This change allocates the zero level ('scv 0'), advertised with
PPC_FEATURE2_SCV, which will be used to provide normal Linux system
calls (equivalent to 'sc').
Attempting to execute scv with other levels will cause a SIGILL to be
delivered the same as before, but will not log a "SCV facility
unavailable" message (because the processor facility is enabled).
Calling convention
------------------
The proposal is for scv 0 to provide the standard Linux system call
ABI with the following differences from sc convention[1]:
- LR is to be volatile across scv calls. This is necessary because the
scv instruction clobbers LR. From previous discussion, this should
be possible to deal with in GCC clobbers and CFI.
- cr1 and cr5-cr7 are volatile. This matches the C ABI and would allow
the kernel system call exit to avoid restoring the volatile cr
registers (although we probably still would anyway to avoid
information leaks).
- Error handling: The consensus among kernel, glibc, and musl is to
move to using negative return values in r3 rather than CR0[SO]=1 to
indicate error, which matches most other architectures, and is
closer to a function call.
Notes
-----
- r0,r4-r8 are documented as volatile in the ABI, but the kernel patch
as submitted currently preserves them. This is to leave room for
deciding which way to go with these. Some small benefit was found by
preserving them[1] but I'm not convinced it's worth deviating from
the C function call ABI just for this. Release code should follow
the ABI.

Currently prefixed instructions are dumped as two separate word
instructions. Use mread_instr() so that prefixed instructions are read
as such and update the incrementor in the loop to take this into
account.
'dump_func' is print_insn_powerpc() which comes from ppc-dis.c which is
taken from binutils. When this is updated prefixed instructions will be
disassembled.
Currently dumping prefixed instructions looks like this:

There are quite a few places where instructions are printed, this is
done using a '%x' format specifier. With the introduction of prefixed
instructions, this does not work well. Currently in these places,
ppc_inst_val() is used for the value for %x so only the first word of
prefixed instructions are printed.
When the instructions are word instructions, only a single word should
be printed. For prefixed instructions both the prefix and suffix should
be printed. To accommodate both of these situations, instead of a '%x'
specifier use '%s' and introduce a helper, __ppc_inst_as_str() which
returns a char *. The char * __ppc_inst_as_str() returns is buffer that
is passed to it by the caller.
It is cumbersome to require every caller of __ppc_inst_as_str() to now
declare a buffer. To make it more convenient to use __ppc_inst_as_str(),
wrap it in a macro that uses a compound statement to allocate a buffer
on the caller's stack before calling it.

Add support for the scv instruction on POWER9 and later CPUs.
For now this implements the zeroth scv vector 'scv 0', as identical to
'sc' system calls, with the exception that LR is not preserved, nor
are volatile CR registers, and error is not indicated with CR0[SO],
but by returning a negative errno.
rfscv is implemented to return from scv type system calls. It can not
be used to return from sc system calls because those are defined to
preserve LR.
getpid syscall throughput on POWER9 is improved by 26% (428 to 318
cycles), largely due to reducing mtmsr and mtspr.

PowerISA v3.1 added three new perfromance
monitoring unit (PMU) speical purpose register (SPR).
They are Monitor Mode Control Register 3 (MMCR3),
Sampled Instruction Event Register 2 (SIER2),
Sampled Instruction Event Register 3 (SIER3).
Patch here adds a new dump function dump_310_sprs
to print these SPR values.

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

Show the address of the tasks regs in the process listing in xmon. The

In a few places we want to calculate the address of the next
instruction. Previously that was simple, we just added 4 bytes, or if
using a u32 * we incremented that pointer by 1.
But prefixed instructions make it more complicated, we need to advance
by either 4 or 8 bytes depending on the actual instruction. We also
can't do pointer arithmetic using struct ppc_inst, because it is
always 8 bytes in size on 64-bit, even though we might only need to
advance by 4 bytes.
So add a ppc_inst_next() helper which calculates the location of the
next instruction, if the given instruction was located at the given
address. Note the instruction doesn't need to actually be at the
address in memory.
Although it would seem natural for the value to be passed by value,
that makes it too easy to write a loop that will read off the end of a
page, eg:
for (; src < end; src = ppc_inst_next(src, *src),
dest = ppc_inst_next(dest, *dest))
As noticed by Christophe and Jordan, if end is the exact end of a
page, and the next page is not mapped, this will fault, because *dest
will read 8 bytes, 4 bytes into the next page.
So value is passed by reference, so the helper can be careful to use
ppc_inst_read() on it.

Currently unsigned ints are used to represent instructions on powerpc.
This has worked well as instructions have always been 4 byte words.
However, ISA v3.1 introduces some changes to instructions that mean
this scheme will no longer work as well. This change is Prefixed
Instructions. A prefixed instruction is made up of a word prefix
followed by a word suffix to make an 8 byte double word instruction.
No matter the endianness of the system the prefix always comes first.
Prefixed instructions are only planned for powerpc64.
Introduce a ppc_inst type to represent both prefixed and word
instructions on powerpc64 while keeping it possible to exclusively
have word instructions on powerpc32.

To execute an instruction out of line after a breakpoint, the NIP is set
to the address of struct bpt::instr. Here a copy of the instruction that
was replaced with a breakpoint is kept, along with a trap so normal flow
can be resumed after XOLing. The struct bpt's are located within the
data section. This is problematic as the data section may be marked as
no execute.
Instead of each struct bpt holding the instructions to be XOL'd, make a
new array, bpt_table[], with enough space to hold instructions for the
number of supported breakpoints. A later patch will move this to the
text section.
Make struct bpt::instr a pointer to the instructions in bpt_table[]
associated with that breakpoint. This association is a simple mapping:
bpts[n] -> bpt_table[n * words per breakpoint]. Currently we only need
the copied instruction followed by a trap, so 2 words per breakpoint.

The pt_regs.trap field keeps 4 low bits for some metadata about the
trap or how it was handled, which is masked off in order to test the
architectural trap number.
Add a set_trap() accessor to set this, equivalent to TRAP() for
returning it. This is actually not quite the equivalent of TRAP()
because it always clears the low bits, which may be harmless if
it can only be updated via ptrace syscall, but it seems dangerous.
In fact settting TRAP from ptrace doesn't seem like a great idea
so maybe it's better deleted.

strings are adjacent to other structures or element. For example,
when examining the task_struct structure one can look for the comm[]
string and use it to locate other important elements.
ASCII strings do not have endianess, they exist in memory in the same
order regardless of CPU endianess. ASCII strings are, by definition,
human readable and so should be presented in a human readable format.
For these reasons, the supplemental ASCII dump does not re-order
the strings from memory to match the endianess of the corresponding
16, 32, or 64 bit words. That would make the ASCII dump much less
useful.
