Currently the only caller of syscall_set_return_value() is seccomp filter, which is not enabled on powerpc. This means we have not noticed that our implementation of syscall_set_return_value() negates error, even though the value passed in is already negative. So remove the negation in syscall_set_return_value(), and expect the caller to do it like all other implementations do. Also add a comment about the ccr handling.

syscall_get_error() is unused, and never has been. It's also probably wrong, as it negates r3 before returning it, but that depends on what the caller is expecting. It also doesn't deal with compat, and doesn't deal with TIF_NOERROR. Although we could fix those, until it has a caller and it's clear what semantics the caller wants it's just untested code. So drop it. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

The API for calling do_syscall_trace_enter() is currently sensible enough, it just returns the (modified) syscall number. However once we enable seccomp filter it will get more complicated. When seccomp filter runs, the seccomp kernel code (via SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO), or a ptracer (via SECCOMP_RET_TRACE), may reject the syscall and *may* or may *not* set a return value in r3. That means the assembler that calls do_syscall_trace_enter() can not blindly return ENOSYS, it needs to only return ENOSYS if a return value has not already been set. There is no way to implement that logic with the current API. So change the do_syscall_trace_enter() API to make it deal with the return code juggling, and the assembler can then just return whatever return code it is given.

Currently on powerpc we have our own #define for the highest (negative) errno value, called _LAST_ERRNO. This is defined to be 516, for reasons which are not clear. The generic code, and x86, use MAX_ERRNO, which is defined to be 4095. In particular seccomp uses MAX_ERRNO to restrict the value that a seccomp filter can return. Currently with the mismatch between _LAST_ERRNO and MAX_ERRNO, a seccomp tracer wanting to return 600, expecting it to be seen as an error, would instead find on powerpc that userspace sees a successful syscall with a return value of 600. To avoid this inconsistency, switch powerpc to use MAX_ERRNO. We are somewhat confident that generic syscalls that can return a non-error value above negative MAX_ERRNO have already been updated to use force_successful_syscall_return(). I have also checked all the powerpc specific syscalls, and believe that none of them expect to return a non-error value between -MAX_ERRNO and -516. So this change should be safe ...

The hardware RNG on POWER8 and POWER7+ can be relatively slow, since it can only supply one 64-bit value per microsecond. Currently we read it in arch_get_random_long(), but that slows down reading from /dev/urandom since the code in random.c calls arch_get_random_long() for every longword read from /dev/urandom. Since the hardware RNG supplies high-quality entropy on every read, it matches the semantics of arch_get_random_seed_long() better than those of arch_get_random_long(). Therefore this commit makes the code use the POWER8/7+ hardware RNG only for arch_get_random_seed_{long,int} and not for arch_get_random_{long,int}. This won't affect any other PowerPC-based platforms because none of them currently support a hardware RNG. To make it clear that the ppc_md function pointer is used for arch_get_random_seed_*, we rename it from get_random_long to get_random_seed.

The EPOW interrupt handler uses rtas_get_sensor(), which in turn uses rtas_busy_delay() to wait for RTAS becoming ready in case it is necessary. But rtas_busy_delay() is annotated with might_sleep() and thus may not be used by interrupts handlers like the EPOW handler! This leads to the following BUG when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is enabled: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c:496 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, pid: 0, name: swapper/1 CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 4.2.0-rc2-thuth #6 Call Trace: [c00000007ffe7b90] [c000000000807670] dump_stack+0xa0/0xdc (unreliable) [c00000007ffe7bc0] [c0000000000e1f14] ___might_sleep+0x134/0x180 [c00000007ffe7c20] [c00000000002aec0] rtas_busy_delay+0x30/0xd0 [c00000007ffe7c50] [c00000000002bde4] rtas_get_sensor+0x74/0xe0 [c00000007ffe7ce0] [c000000000083264] ras_epow_interrupt+0x44/0x450 [c00000007ffe7d90] [c000000000120260] handle_irq_event_percpu+0xa0/0x300 [c00000007ffe7e70] [c000000000120524] handle_irq_event+0x64/0xc0 [c00000007ffe7eb0] [c000000000124dbc] handle_fasteoi_irq+0xec/0x260 [c00000007ffe7ef0] [c00000000011f4f0] generic_handle_irq+0x50/0x80 [c00000007ffe7f20] [c000000000010f3c] __do_irq+0x8c/0x200 [c00000007ffe7f90] [c0000000000236cc] call_do_irq+0x14/0x24 [c00000007e6f39e0] [c000000000011144] do_IRQ+0x94/0x110 [c00000007e6f3a30] [c000000000002594] hardware_interrupt_common+0x114/0x180 Fix this issue by introducing a new rtas_get_sensor_fast() function that does not use rtas_busy_delay() - and thus can only be used for sensors that do not cause a BUSY condition - known as "fast" sensors.

This patch adds support for OPAL EPOW (Environmental and Power Warnings) and DPO (Delayed Power Off) events for the PowerNV platform. These events are generated on FSP (Flexible Service Processor) based systems. EPOW events are generated due to various critical system conditions that require system shutdown. A few examples of these conditions are high ambient temperature or system running on UPS power with low UPS battery. DPO event is generated in response to admin initiated system shutdown request. Upon receipt of EPOW and DPO events the host kernel invokes orderly_poweroff() for performing graceful system shutdown.

On PHB3, PE might be reserved in advance to reflect the M64 segments consumed by the PE according to M64 BARs (exclude VF BARs) of the PCI devices included in the PE. The PE is picked based on M64 BARs instead of the bridge's M64 windows, which might include VF BARs. Otherwise, wrong PE could be picked. The patch calculates the used M64 segments and PE numbers according to the M64 BARs, excluding VF BARs, of PCI devices in one particular PE, instead of the bridge's M64 windows.

On PHB3, some PEs might be reserved in advance to reflect the M64 segments consumed by those PEs. We're reserving PEs based on the M64 window of root port, which might contain VF BAR. The PEs for VFs are allocated dynamically, not reserved based on the consumed M64 segments. So the M64 window of root port isn't reliable for the task. Instead, we go through M64 BARs (VF BARs excluded) of PCI devices under the specified root bus and reserve PEs accordingly, as the patch does.

The PE numbers are reserved according to root port's M64 window, which is aligned to M64 segment finely. So one PE shouldn't be reserved for multiple times. We will reserve PE numbers according to the M64 BARs of PCI device in subsequent patches, which aren't aligned to M64 segment size finely. It means one particular PE could be reserved for multiple times. The patch allows one PE to be reserved for multiple times and we print the warning message at debugging level.

The encoding of the lengths in the ibm_architecture_vec array is "interesting" to say the least. It's non-obvious how the number of bytes we provide relates to the length value. In fact we already got it wrong once, see 11e9ed43 "Fix up ibm_architecture_vec definition". So add some macros to make it (hopefully) clearer. These at least have the property that the integer present in the code is equal to the number of bytes that follows it.

C99 says that a precision given as simply '.' with no following digits or * should be interpreted as 0. The kernel's printf implementation, however, treats this case as if the precision was omitted. C99 also says that if both the precision and value are 0, no digits should be printed. Even if the kernel followed C99 to the letter, I don't think that would be particularly useful in these cases. For consistency with most other format strings in the file, use an explicit precision of 16 and add a 0x prefix.

This reverts commit dec4f799. Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as 'crtc_state' very much can be NULL: crtc_state = state->base.state ? intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL; So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be correct as-is. There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the right solution is in the longer term.

Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and has no remaining links, of course). However, there's one case where that does *not* happen. Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache, then unlink() and close(). In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal. In this case, though, we end up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and regular one (used by unlink()). The latter will have its reference to inode dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure will finally do it in. As the result, we have the final iput() delayed indefinitely. It's trivial to reproduce - void flush_dcache(void) { system("mount -o remount,rw /"); } static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024]; main() { int fd; union { struct file_handle f; char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ]; } x; int m; x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x); chdir("/root"); mkdir("foo", 0700); fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600); close(fd); name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &x.f, &m, 0); flush_dcache(); fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &x.f, O_RDWR); unlink("foo/bar"); write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)); system("df ."); /* 20Mb eaten */ close(fd); system("df ."); /* should've freed those 20Mb */ flush_dcache(); system("df ."); /* should be the same as #2 */ } will spit out something like Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 303843 1131 100% / Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 303843 1131 100% / Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 283282 21692 93% / - inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory pressure hell knows when).
