      powerpc: Remove more traces of bootmem · e39f223f
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of
bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is
still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but
ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem.

Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to
memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as:

  p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x);

Becomes:

  p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0);

We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *.
The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment,
which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses.

We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of
memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic
if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the
NULL checks are and always have been redundant.

The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we
remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc().

Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base()
because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation
to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone.

      powerpc/pseries: Initialise nvram_pstore_info's buf_lock · a49ab6ee
      Li Zhong authored 
      nvram_pstore_info's buf_lock is not initialized before registering,
which is clearly incorrect.

It causes some strange behavior when trying to obtain the lock during
kdump process.

On a UP configuration, the console stopped for a couple of seconds, then
"lockup suspected" warning printed out, but then it continued to run.

So try lock fails, and lockup reported, but then arch_spin_lock()
passes.

      cxl: Name interrupts in /proc/interrupt · 80fa93fc
      Michael Neuling authored 
      Currently all interrupts generated by cxl are named "cxl".  This is not very
informative as we can't distinguish between cards, AFUs, error interrupts, user
contexts and user interrupts numbers.  Being able to distinguish them is useful
for setting affinity.

This patch gives each of these names in /proc/interrupts.

A two card CAPI system, with afu0.0 having 2 active contexts each with 4 user
IRQs each, will now look like this:

    % grep cxl /proc/interrupts
    444:          0  OPAL ICS 141312 Level     cxl-card1-err

      cxl: Return error to PSL if IRQ demultiplexing fails & print clearer warning · bc78b05b
      Ian Munsie authored 
      If an AFU has a hardware bug that causes it to acknowledge a context
terminate or remove while that context has outstanding transactions, it
is possible for the kernel to receive an interrupt for that context
after we have removed it from the context list.

The kernel will not be able to demultiplex the interrupt (or worse - if
we have already reallocated the process handle we could mis-attribute it
to the new context), and printed a big scary warning.

It did not acknowledge the interrupt, which would effectively halt
further translation fault processing on the PSL.

This patch makes the warning clearer about the likely cause of the issue
(i.e. hardware bug) to make it obvious to future AFU designers of what
needs to be fixed. It also prints out the process handle which can then
be matched up with hardware and software traces for debugging.

It also acknowledges the interrupt to the PSL with either an address
error or acknowledge, so that the PSL can continue with other
translations.

      rtc/tpo: Driver to support rtc and wakeup on PowerNV platform · 16b1d26e
      Neelesh Gupta authored 
      The patch implements the OPAL rtc driver that binds with the rtc
driver subsystem. The driver uses the platform device infrastructure
to probe the rtc device and register it to rtc class framework. The
'wakeup' is supported depending upon the property 'has-tpo' present
in the OF node. It provides a way to load the generic rtc driver in
in the absence of an OPAL driver.

The patch also moves the existing OPAL rtc get/set time interfaces to the
new driver and exposes the necessary OPAL calls using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

      powerpc: Use generic PIE randomization · 59994fb0
      Vineeth Vijayan authored 
      Back in 2009 we merged 501cb16d "Randomise PIEs", which added support for
randomizing PIE (Position Independent Executable) binaries.

That commit added randomize_et_dyn(), which correctly randomized the addresses,
but failed to honor PF_RANDOMIZE. That means it was not possible to disable PIE
randomization via the personality flag, or /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space.

Since then there has been generic support for PIE randomization added to
binfmt_elf.c, selectable via ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE.

Enabling that allows us to drop randomize_et_dyn(), which means we start
honoring PF_RANDOMIZE correctly.

It also causes a fairly major change to how we layout PIE binaries.

Currently we will place the binary at 512MB-520MB for 32 bit binaries, or
512MB-1.5GB for 64 bit binaries, eg:

    $ cat /proc/$$/maps
    4e550000-4e580000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813       /bin/dash
    4e580000-4e590000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 129813       /bin/dash
    10014110000-10014140000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0      [heap]
    3fffaa3f0000-3fffaa5a0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921  /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so
    3fffaa5a0000-3fffaa5b0000 rw-p 001a0000 08:02 921  /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so
    3fffaa5c0000-3fffaa5d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
    3fffaa5d0000-3fffaa5f0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0    [vdso]
    3fffaa5f0000-3fffaa620000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so
    3fffaa620000-3fffaa630000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so
    3ffffc340000-3ffffc370000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0    [stack]

With this commit applied we don't do any special randomisation for the binary,
and instead rely on mmap randomisation. This means the binary ends up at high
addresses, eg:

    $ cat /proc/$$/maps
    3fff99820000-3fff999d0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921    /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so
    3fff999d0000-3fff999e0000 rw-p 001a0000 08:02 921    /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so
    3fff999f0000-3fff99a00000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
    3fff99a00000-3fff99a20000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0      [vdso]
    3fff99a20000-3fff99a50000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 1246   /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so
    3fff99a50000-3fff99a60000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 1246   /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so
    3fff99a60000-3fff99a90000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash
    3fff99a90000-3fff99aa0000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash
    3fffc3de0000-3fffc3e10000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0      [stack]
    3fffc55e0000-3fffc5610000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0      [heap]

Although this should be OK, it's possible it might break badly written
binaries that make assumptions about the address space layout.
