irq_work is processed in softirq context on -RT because we want to avoid
long latencies which might arise from processing lots of perf events.
The noHZ-full mode requires its callback to be called from real hardirq
context (commit 76c24fb ("nohz: New APIs to re-evaluate the tick on full
dynticks CPUs")). If it is called from a thread context we might get
wrong results for checks like "is_idle_task(current)".
This patch introduces a second list (hirq_work_list) which will be used
if irq_work_run() has been invoked from hardirq context and process only
work items marked with IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ.
This patch also removes arch_irq_work_raise() from sparc & powerpc like
it is already done for x86. Atleast for powerpc it is somehow
superfluous because it is called from the timer interrupt which should
invoke update_process_times().

commit a5b2cf5b1af424ee3dd9e3ce6d5cea18cb927e67 upstream.
The 64bit relocation code places a few symbols in the text segment.
These symbols are only 4 byte aligned where they need to be 8 byte
aligned. Add an explicit alignment.

commit 621b5060e823301d0cba4cb52a7ee3491922d291 upstream.
When we fork/clone we currently don't copy any of the TM state to the new
thread. This results in a TM bad thing (program check) when the new process is
switched in as the kernel does a tmrechkpt with TEXASR FS not set. Also, since
R1 is from userspace, we trigger the bad kernel stack pointer detection. So we
end up with something like this:
Bad kernel stack pointer 0 at c0000000000404fc
cpu 0x2: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c00000003ffefd40]
pc: c0000000000404fc: restore_gprs+0xc0/0x148

paca = 0xc00000000fe00800 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01
pid = 0, comm = swapper/2
WARNING: exception is not recoverable, can't continue
The below fixes this by flushing the TM state before we copy the task_struct to
the clone. To do this we go through the tmreclaim patch, which removes the
checkpointed registers from the CPU and transitions the CPU out of TM suspend
mode. Hence we need to call tmrechkpt after to restore the checkpointed state
and the TM mode for the current task.
To make this fail from userspace is simply:
tbegin

commit 0c4888ef1d8a8b82c29075ce7e257ff795af15c7 upstream.
When restoring the PPR value, we incorrectly access the thread structure
at a time where MSR:RI is clear, which means we cannot recover from nested
faults. However the thread structure isn't covered by the "bolted" SLB
entries and thus accessing can fault.
This fixes it by splitting the code so that the PPR value is loaded into
a GPR before MSR:RI is cleared.

commit f5295bd8ea8a65dc5eac608b151386314cb978f1 upstream.
In copy_oldmem_page, the current check using max_pfn and min_low_pfn to
decide if the page is backed or not, is not valid when the memory layout is
not continuous.
This happens when running as a QEMU/KVM guest, where RTAS is mapped higher
in the memory. In that case max_pfn points to the end of RTAS, and a hole
between the end of the kdump kernel and RTAS is not backed by PTEs. As a
consequence, the kdump kernel is crashing in copy_oldmem_page when accessing
in a direct way the pages in that hole.
This fix relies on the memblock's service memblock_is_region_memory to
check if the read page is part or not of the directly accessible memory.

commit 573ebfa6601fa58b439e7f15828762839ccd306a upstream.
The new ELFv2 little-endian ABI increases the stack redzone -- the
area below the stack pointer that can be used for storing data --
from 288 bytes to 512 bytes. This means that we need to allow more
space on the user stack when delivering a signal to a 64-bit process.
To make the code a bit clearer, we define new USER_REDZONE_SIZE and
KERNEL_REDZONE_SIZE symbols in ptrace.h. For now, we leave the
kernel redzone size at 288 bytes, since increasing it to 512 bytes
would increase the size of interrupt stack frames correspondingly.
Gcc currently only makes use of 288 bytes of redzone even when
compiling for the new little-endian ABI, and the kernel cannot
currently be compiled with the new ABI anyway.
In the future, hopefully gcc will provide an option to control the
amount of redzone used, and then we could reduce it even more.
This also changes the code in arch_compat_alloc_user_space() to
preserve the expanded redzone. It is not clear why this function would
ever be used on a 64-bit process, though.

commit 91b973f90c1220d71923e7efe1e61f5329806380 upstream.
The code in remove_cache_dir() is supposed to remove the "cache"
subdirectory from the sysfs directory for a CPU when that CPU is
being offlined. It tries to do this by calling kobject_put() on
the kobject for the subdirectory. However, the subdirectory only
gets removed once the last reference goes away, and the reference
being put here may well not be the last reference. That means
that the "cache" subdirectory may still exist when the offlining
operation has finished. If the same CPU subsequently gets onlined,
the code tries to add a new "cache" subdirectory. If the old
subdirectory has not yet been removed, we get a WARN_ON in the
sysfs code, with stack trace, and an error message printed on the
console. Further, we ultimately end up with an online cpu with no
"cache" subdirectory.
This fixes it by doing an explicit kobject_del() at the point where
we want the subdirectory to go away. kobject_del() removes the sysfs
directory even though the object still exists in memory. The object
will get freed at some point in the future. A subsequent onlining
operation can create a new sysfs directory, even if the old object
still exists in memory, without causing any problems.

commit ec67ad82814bee92251fd963bf01c7a173856555 upstream.
In a recent patch:
commit c13f20ac48328b05cd3b8c19e31ed6c132b44b42
Author: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org>
powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contexts
We fixed an issue but an improved solution was later discussed after the patch
was merged.
Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit
this issue (but has never been reported).
Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The
new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the
context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when
VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the
state).
This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It
also adds a 64 bit version.

commit 84b073868b9d9e754ae48b828337633d1b386482 upstream.
When reading from the dispatch trace log (dtl) userspace interface, I

00000050 00 00 00 00 10 00 13 50 80 00 00 00 00 00 d0 32
The problem is in scan_dispatch_log() where we call dtl_consumer()
but bail out before incrementing the index.
To fix this I moved dtl_consumer() after the timebase comparison.

On PHB3, we will fail to fetch IODA tables without PCI_COMMAND_MASTER

didn't raise from the adapter without the bit applied to all upstream
PCI bridges including root port of the adapter. The patch forces to
have that bit enabled accordingly.

commit c13f20ac48328b05cd3b8c19e31ed6c132b44b42 upstream.
The VSX MSR bit in the user context indicates if the context contains VSX
state. Currently we set this when the process has touched VSX at any stage.
Unfortunately, if the user has not provided enough space to save the VSX state,
we can't save it but we currently still set the MSR VSX bit.
This patch changes this to clear the MSR VSX bit when the user doesn't provide
enough space. This indicates that there is no valid VSX state in the user
context.
This is needed to support get/set/make/swapcontext for applications that use
VSX but only provide a small context. For example, getcontext in glibc
provides a smaller context since the VSX registers don't need to be saved over
the glibc function call. But since the program calling getcontext may have
used VSX, the kernel currently says the VSX state is valid when it's not. If
the returned context is then used in setcontext (ie. a small context without
VSX but with MSR VSX set), the kernel will refuse the context. This situation
has been reported by the glibc community.
Based on patch from Carlos O'Donell.

irq_exit() is now called on the irq stack, which can trigger a switch to
the softirq stack from the irq stack. If an interrupt happens at that
point, we will not properly detect the re-entrancy and clobber the
original return context on the irq stack.
This fixes it. The side effect is to prevent all nesting from softirq
stack to irq stack even in the "safe" case but it's simpler that way and
matches what x86_64 does.

When we do a treclaim or trecheckpoint we end up running with userspace
PPR and DSCR values. Currently we don't do anything special to avoid
running with user values which could cause a severe performance
degradation.
This patch moves the PPR and DSCR save and restore around treclaim and
trecheckpoint so that we run with user values for a much shorter period.
More care is taken with the PPR as it's impact is greater than the DSCR.
This is similar to user exceptions, where we run HTM_MEDIUM early to
ensure that we don't run with a userspace PPR values in the kernel.

Under heavy (DLPAR?) stress, we tripped this panic() in
arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c::iommu_init_table():
page = alloc_pages_node(nid, GFP_ATOMIC, get_order(sz));
if (!page)
panic("iommu_init_table: Can't allocate %ld bytes\n", sz);
Before the panic() we got a page allocation failure for an order-2
allocation. There appears to be memory free, but perhaps not in the
ATOMIC context. I looked through all the call-sites of
iommu_init_table() and didn't see any obvious reason to need an ATOMIC
allocation. Most call-sites in fact have an explicit GFP_KERNEL
allocation shortly before the call to iommu_init_table(), indicating we
are not in an atomic context. There is some indirection for some paths,
but I didn't see any locks indicating that GFP_KERNEL is inappropriate.
With this change under the same conditions, we have not been able to
reproduce the panic.

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly
instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated
softirq stack.
This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call
irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to
the irq stack.
This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making
irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window. Some of the
highlights are:
- A bunch of endian fixes ! We don't have full LE support yet in that
release but this contains a lot of fixes all over arch/powerpc to
use the proper accessors, call the firmware with the right endian
mode, etc...
- A few updates to our "powernv" platform (non-virtualized, the one
to run KVM on), among other, support for bridging the P8 LPC bus
for UARTs, support and some EEH fixes.
- Some mpc51xx clock API cleanups in preparation for a clock API
overhaul
- A pile of cleanups of our old math emulation code, including better
support for using it to emulate optional FP instructions on
embedded chips that otherwise have a HW FPU.
- Some infrastructure in selftest, for powerpc now, but could be
generalized, initially used by some tests for our perf instruction
counting code.
- A pile of fixes for hotplug on pseries (that was seriously
bitrotting)
- The usual slew of freescale embedded updates, new boards, 64-bit
hiberation support, e6500 core PMU support, etc..."

Merge recent fixes to lparcfg so subsequent patches can move
the whole file to arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries
|
|
/proc/powerpc/lparcfg is an ancient facility (though still actively used)
which allows access to some informations relative to the partition when
running underneath a PAPR compliant hypervisor.
It makes no sense on non-pseries machines. However, currently, not only
can it be created on these if the kernel has pseries support, but accessing
it on such a machine will crash due to trying to do hypervisor calls.
In fact, it should also not do HV calls on older pseries that didn't have
an hypervisor either.
Finally, it has the plumbing to be a module but is a "bool" Kconfig option.
This fixes the whole lot by turning it into a machine_device_initcall
that is only created on pseries, and adding the necessary hypervisor
check before calling the H_GET_EM_PARMS hypercall

As suggested by paulus we can simplify the Data Stream Control Register
(DSCR) Facility Status and Control Register (FSCR) handling.
Firstly, we simplify the asm by using a rldimi.
Secondly, we now use the FSCR only to control the DSCR facility, rather
than both the FSCR and HFSCR. Users will see no functional change from
this but will get a minor speedup as they will trap into the kernel only
once (rather than twice) when they first touch the DSCR. Also, this
changes removes a bunch of ugly FTR_SECTION code.

Merge stuff that already went into Linus via "merge" which
are pre-reqs for subsequent patches
|
|
In the program check handler we handle some causes with interrupts off
and others with interrupts on.
We need to enable interrupts to handle the emulation cases, because they
access userspace memory and might sleep.
For faults in the kernel we don't want to do any emulation, and
emulate_instruction() enforces that. do_mathemu() doesn't but probably
should.
The other disadvantage of enabling interrupts for kernel faults is that
we may take another interrupt, and recurse. As seen below:
--- Exception: e40 at c000000000004ee0 performance_monitor_relon_pSeries_1
[link register ] c00000000000f858 .arch_local_irq_restore+0x38/0x90
[c000000fb185dc10] 0000000000000000 (unreliable)
[c000000fb185dc80] c0000000007d8558 .program_check_exception+0x298/0x2d0
[c000000fb185dd00] c000000000002f40 emulation_assist_common+0x140/0x180
--- Exception: e40 at c000000000004ee0 performance_monitor_relon_pSeries_1
[link register ] c00000000000f858 .arch_local_irq_restore+0x38/0x90

[c000000fb185e060] c0000000007d8558 .program_check_exception+0x298/0x2d0
So avoid both problems by checking if the fault was in the kernel and
skipping the enable of interrupts and the emulation. Go straight to
delivering the SIGILL, which for kernel faults calls die() and so on,
dropping us in the debugger etc.

The symbols that name some of our exception trampolines are ahead of the
location they name. In most cases this is OK because the code is tightly
packed, but in some cases it means the symbol floats ahead of the
correct location, eg:
c000000000000ea0 <performance_monitor_pSeries_1>:
...
c000000000000f00: 7d b2 43 a6 mtsprg 2,r13
Fix them all by moving the symbol after the set of the location.
While we're moving them anyway, rename them to loose the camelcase and
to make it clear that they are trampolines.
