MPIPL is Memory Preserving IPL supported from POWER9. This enables the kernel to reset the system with memory 'preserved'. Also, it supports copying memory from a source address to some destination address during MPIPL boot. Add MPIPL interface definitions here to leverage these f/w features in adding FADump support for PowerNV platform.

Except for Reserved dump area (see Documentation/powerpc/firmware- assisted-dump.rst) which is permanent reserved, all memory above boot memory size, where boot memory size is the memory required for the kernel to boot successfully when booted with restricted memory (memory for capture kernel), is released when the dump is invalidated.

In some configurations of KVM, guests binary patch themselves to avoid/reduce trapping into the hypervisor. For some instructions this requires replacing one instruction with a sequence of instructions. For those cases we need to write the sequence of instructions somewhere and then patch the location of the original instruction to branch to the sequence. That requires that the location of the sequence be within 32MB of the original instruction. The current solution for this is that we create a 1MB array in BSS, write sequences into there, and then free the remainder of the array. This has a few problems: - it confuses kmemleak. - it confuses lockdep. - it requires mapping kvm_tmp executable, which can cause adjacent areas to also be mapped executable if we're using 16M pages for the linear mapping. - the 32MB limit can be exceeded if the kernel is big enough, especially with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled, which then prevents the patching from working at all. We can fix all those problems by making kvm_tmp just a region of regular .text. However currently it's 1MB in size, and we don't want to waste 1MB of text. In practice however I only see ~30KB of kvm_tmp being used even for an allyes_config. So shrink kvm_tmp to 64K, which ought to be enough for everyone, and move it into .text.

There's a bug in skiboot that causes the OPAL_XIVE_ALLOCATE_IRQ call to return the 32-bit value 0xffffffff when OPAL has run out of IRQs. Unfortunatelty, OPAL return values are signed 64-bit entities and errors are supposed to be negative. If that happens, the linux code confusingly treats 0xffffffff as a valid IRQ number and panics at some point. A fix was recently merged in skiboot: e97391ae2bb5 ("xive: fix return value of opal_xive_allocate_irq()") but we need a workaround anyway to support older skiboots already in the field. Internally convert 0xffffffff to OPAL_RESOURCE which is the usual error returned upon resource exhaustion.

prep_irq_for_idle() is intended to be called before entering H_CEDE (and it is used by the pseries cpuidle driver). However the default pseries idle routine does not call it, leading to mismanaged lazy irq state when the cpuidle driver isn't in use. Manifestations of this include: * Dropped IPIs in the time immediately after a cpu comes online (before it has installed the cpuidle handler), making the online operation block indefinitely waiting for the new cpu to respond. * Hitting this WARN_ON in arch_local_irq_restore(): /* * We should already be hard disabled here. We had bugs * where that wasn't the case so let's dbl check it and * warn if we are wrong. Only do that when IRQ tracing * is enabled as mfmsr() can be costly. */ if (WARN_ON_ONCE(mfmsr() & MSR_EE)) __hard_irq_disable(); Call prep_irq_for_idle() from pseries_lpar_idle() and honor its result.

If watchpoint exception is generated by larx/stcx instructions, the reservation created by larx gets lost while handling exception, and thus stcx instruction always fails. Generally these instructions are used in a while(1) loop, for example spinlocks. And because stcx never succeeds, it loops forever and ultimately hangs the system. Note that ptrace anyway works in one-shot mode and thus for ptrace we don't change the behaviour. It's up to ptrace user to take care of this.

Primarily adding this capability for debug. But when doing so, the code did not consider the case of cpu-less nodes. So when reading the _cmd_ or _mode_ file of a cpu-less node will create this crash. Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000000d0d58 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] ...

Nicholas Piggin authored
Introduce two options to control the use of the tlbie instruction. A boot time option which completely disables the kernel using the instruction, this is currently incompatible with HASH MMU, KVM, and coherent accelerators. And a debugfs option can be switched at runtime and avoids using tlbie for invalidating CPU TLBs for normal process and kernel address mappings. Coherent accelerators are still managed with tlbie, as will KVM partition scope translations. Cross-CPU TLB flushing is implemented with IPIs and tlbiel. This is a basic implementation which does not attempt to make any optimisation beyond the tlbie implementation. This is useful for performance testing among other things. For example in certain situations on large systems, using IPIs may be faster than tlbie as they can be directed rather than broadcast. Later we may also take advantage of the IPIs to do more interesting things such as trim the mm cpumask more aggressively.

Radix guests are responsible for managing their own translation caches, so make them match bare metal radix and hash, and make each CPU flush all its translations right before enabling its MMU. Radix guests may not flush partition scope translations, so in tlbiel_all, make these flushes conditional on CPU_FTR_HVMODE. Process scope translations are the only type visible to the guest.

Use the new eeh_dev_check and eeh_dev_break interfaces to test EEH recovery. Historically this has been done manually using platform specific EEH error injection facilities (e.g. via RTAS). However, documentation on how to use these facilities is haphazard at best and non-existent at worst so it's hard to develop a cross-platform test. The new debugfs interfaces allow the kernel to handle the platform specific details so we can write a more generic set of sets. This patch adds the most basic of recovery tests where: a) Errors are injected and recovered from sequentially, b) Errors are not injected into PCI-PCI bridges, such as PCIe switches. c) Errors are only injected into device function zero. d) No errors are injected into Virtual Functions. a), b) and c) are largely due to limitations of Linux's EEH support. EEH recovery is serialised in the EEH recovery thread which forces a). Similarly, multi-function PCI devices are almost always grouped into the same PE so injecting an error on one function exercises the same code paths. c) is because we currently more or less ignore PCI bridges during recovery and assume that the recovered topology will be the same as the original. d) is due to the limits of the eeh_dev_break interface. With the current implementation we can't inject an error into a specific VF without potentially causing additional errors on other VFs. Due to the serialised recovery process we might end up timing out waiting for another function to recover before the function of interest is recovered. The platform specific error injection facilities are finer-grained and allow this capability, but doing that requires working out how to use those facilities first. Basicly, it's better than nothing and it's a base to build on.
