Export /sys/firmware/opal/core file to analyze opal crashes. Since OPAL core can be generated independent of CONFIG_FA_DUMP support in kernel, add this support under a new kernel config option CONFIG_OPAL_CORE. Also, avoid code duplication by moving common code used while exporting /proc/vmcore and/or /sys/firmware/opal/core file(s). Signed-off-by:

Add a new kernel config option, CONFIG_PRESERVE_FA_DUMP that ensures that crash data, from previously crash'ed kernel, is preserved. This helps in cases where FADump is not enabled but the subsequent memory preserving kernel boot is likely to process this crash data. One typical usecase for this config option is petitboot kernel. As OPAL allows registering address with it in the first kernel and retrieving it after MPIPL, use it to store the top of boot memory. A kernel that intends to preserve crash data retrieves it and avoids using memory beyond this address. Move arch_reserved_kernel_pages() function as it is needed for both FA_DUMP and PRESERVE_FA_DUMP configurations. Signed-off-by:

Commit 0962e800 ("powerpc/prom: Scan reserved-ranges node for memory reservations") enabled support to parse 'reserved-ranges' DT node to reserve kernel memory falling in these ranges for firmware purposes. Along with the preserved area memory, ensure memory in reserved ranges is not overlapped with memory released by capture kernel aftering saving vmcore. Also, fix the off-by-one error in fadump_release_reserved_area function while releasing memory. Signed-off-by:

Firmware provides architected register state data at the time of crash. Process this data and build CPU notes to append to ELF core. In case this data is missing or in unsupported format, at least append crashing CPU's register data, to have something to work with in the vmcore file. Signed-off-by:

Earlier, memblock_find_in_range() was not used to find the memory to be reserved for FADump as bottom up allocation mode was not supported. But since commit 79442ed1 ("mm/memblock.c: introduce bottom-up allocation mode") bottom up allocation mode is supported for memblock. So, use it to find the memory to be reserved for FADump.

Firmware uses a 32-bit field for size while copying/backing-up memory during MPIPL. So, the maximum value that could be represented with a PAGE_SIZE aligned 32-bit field will be the maximum copy size for a region but FADump capture kernel usually needs more memory than that to be preserved to avoid running into out of memory errors. So, request firmware to copy multiple kernel boot memory regions instead of just one (which worked fine for pseries as 64-bit field was used for size there). Signed-off-by:

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.

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.

Though asm/fadump.h is meant to be used by other components dealing with FADump, it also has macros/definitions internal to FADump code. Move them to a new header file used within FADump code. This also makes way for refactoring platform specific FADump code. Signed-off-by:

This slightly improves the prom_init_check rule. [1] Avoid needless check Currently, prom_init_check.sh is invoked every time you run 'make' even if you have changed nothing in prom_init.c. With this commit, the script is re-run only when prom_init.o is recompiled. [2] Beautify the build log Currently, the O= build shows the absolute path to the script: CALL /abs/path/to/source/of/linux/arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init_check.sh With this commit, it is always a relative path to the timestamp file: PROMCHK arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init_check Signed-off-by:

All the code in kvm.c can be marked __init. Most of it is already inlined into the initcall, but not all. So instead of relying on the inlining, mark it all as __init. This saves ~280 bytes of text for my configuration. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

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. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.12+ Signed-off-by:Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> Reviewed-by:

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.
