The automatic "save & restore" of interrupt context is a POWER10/XIVE2 feature exploited by KVM under the PowerNV platform. It is not available under pSeries and the associated toggle should not be exposed under the XIVE debugfs directory. Introduce a platform handler for debugfs initialization and move the 'save-restore' entry under the native (PowerNV) backend to fix compile when !CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV. Fixes: 1e7684dc ("powerpc/xive: Add a debugfs toggle for save-restore") Reported-by:

Running perf fuzzer showed below in dmesg logs: "Can't find PMC that caused IRQ" This means a PMU exception happened, but none of the PMC's (Performance Monitor Counter) were found to be overflown. There are some corner cases that clears the PMCs after PMI gets masked. In such cases, the perf interrupt handler will not find the active PMC values that had caused the overflow and thus leads to this message while replaying. Case 1: PMU Interrupt happens during replay of other interrupts and counter values gets cleared by PMU callbacks before replay: During replay of interrupts like timer, __do_irq() and doorbell exception, we conditionally enable interrupts via may_hard_irq_enable(). This could potentially create a window to generate a PMI. Since irq soft mask is set to ALL_DISABLED, the PMI will get masked here. We could get IPIs run before perf interrupt is replayed and the PMU events could be deleted or stopped. This will change the PMU SPR values and resets the counters.

If the local_add() operation happens within a local_irq_save(), replay of PMI will be during local_irq_restore(). Similar to case 1, this could also create a window before replay where PMU events gets deleted or stopped. Fix it by updating the PMU callback function power_pmu_disable() to check for pending perf interrupt. If there is an overflown PMC and pending perf interrupt indicated in paca, clear the PMI bit in paca to drop that sample. Clearing of PMI bit is done in power_pmu_disable() since disable is invoked before any event gets deleted/stopped. With this fix, if there are more than one event running in the PMU, there is a chance that we clear the PMI bit for the event which is not getting deleted/stopped. The other events may still remain active. Hence to make sure we don't drop valid sample in such cases, another check is added in power_pmu_enable. This checks if there is an overflown PMC found among the active events and if so enable back the PMI bit. Two new helper functions are introduced to clear/set the PMI, ie clear_pmi_irq_pending() and set_pmi_irq_pending(). Helper function pmi_irq_pending() is introduced to give a warning if there is pending PMI bit in paca, but no PMC is overflown. Also there are corner cases which result in performance monitor interrupts being triggered during power_pmu_disable(). This happens since PMXE bit is not cleared along with disabling of other MMCR0 bits in the pmu_disable. Such PMI's could leave the PMU running and could trigger PMI again which will set MMCR0 PMAO bit. This could lead to spurious interrupts in some corner cases. Example, a timer after power_pmu_del() which will re-enable interrupts and triggers a PMI again since PMAO bit is still set. But fails to find valid overflow since PMC was cleared in power_pmu_del(). Fix that by disabling PMXE along with disabling of other MMCR0 bits in power_pmu_disable(). We can't just replay PMI any time. Hence this approach is preferred rather than replaying PMI before resetting overflown PMC. Patch also documents core-book3s on a race condition which can trigger these PMC messages during idle path in PowerNV.

Allow GCC to choose between the normal or immediate form. For clear bits, on 32 bits 'rlwinm' can be used instead of 'andc' for when all bits to be cleared are consecutive. On 64 bits we don't have any equivalent single operation for clearing, single bits or a few bits, we'd need two 'rldicl' so it is not worth it, the li/andc sequence is doing the same.

The printk layer at the moment does not seem to have a good way to force flush printk messages that are created in NMI context, except in the panic path. NMI-context printk messages normally get to the console with irq_work, but that won't help if the CPU is stuck with irqs disabled, as can be the case for hard lockup watchdog messages. The watchdog currently flushes the printk buffers after detecting a lockup on remote CPUs, but they may not have processed their NMI IPI yet by that stage, or they may have self-detected a lockup in which case they won't go via this NMI IPI path. Improve the situation by having NMI-context mark a flag if it called printk, and have watchdog timer interrupts check if that flag was set and try to flush if it was. Latency is not a big problem because we were already stuck for a while, just need to try to make sure the messages eventually make it out.

When taking watchdog actions, printing messages, comparing and re-setting wd_smp_last_reset_tb, etc., read TB close to the point of use and under wd_smp_lock or printing lock (if applicable). This should keep timebase mostly monotonic with kernel log messages, and could prevent (in theory) a laggy CPU updating wd_smp_last_reset_tb to something a long way in the past, and causing other CPUs to appear to be stuck. These additional TB reads are all slowpath (lockup has been detected), so performance does not matter. Signed-off-by:

There is a deadlock with the console_owner lock and the wd_smp_lock: CPU x takes the console_owner lock CPU y takes a watchdog timer interrupt and takes __wd_smp_lock CPU x takes a soft-NMI interrupt, detects deadlock, spins on __wd_smp_lock CPU y detects deadlock, tries to print something and spins on console_owner -> deadlock Change the watchdog locking scheme so wd_smp_lock protects the watchdog internal data, but "reporting" (printing, issuing NMI IPIs, taking any action outside of watchdog) uses a non-waiting exclusion. If a CPU detects a problem but can not take the reporting lock, it just returns because something else is already reporting. It will try again at some point. Typically hard lockup watchdog report usefulness is not impacted due to failure to spewing a large enough amount of data in as short a time as possible, but by messages getting garbled. Laurent debugged this and found the deadlock, and this patch is based on his general approach to avoid expensive operations while holding the lock. With the addition of the reporting exclusion.

This can race with non-atomic RMW updates to the mask under lock, which can happen in two instances: Firstly, if another CPU detects this one is stuck, removes it from the mask, mask becomes empty and is re-filled with non-atomic stores. This is okay because it would re-fill the mask with this CPU's bit clear anyway (because this CPU is now stuck), so it doesn't matter that the bit clear update got "lost". Add a comment for this. Secondly, if another CPU detects a different CPU is stuck and removes it from the pending mask with a non-atomic store to bytes which also include the bit of this CPU. This case can result in the bit clear being lost and the end result being the bit is set. This should be so rare it hardly matters, but to make things simpler to reason about just avoid the non-atomic access for that case. Signed-off-by:

It is possible for all CPUs to miss the pending cpumask becoming clear, and then nobody resetting it, which will cause the lockup detector to stop working. It will eventually expire, but watchdog_smp_panic will avoid doing anything if the pending mask is clear and it will never be reset. Order the cpumask clear vs the subsequent test to close this race. Add an extra check for an empty pending mask when the watchdog fires and finds its bit still clear, to try to catch any other possible races or bugs here and keep the watchdog working. The extra test in arch_touch_nmi_watchdog is required to prevent the new warning from firing off. Signed-off-by:

Generally RTAS cannot block, and in PAPR it is required to return control to the OS within a few tens of microseconds. In order to support operations which may take longer to complete, many RTAS primitives can return intermediate -2 ("busy") or 990x ("extended delay") values, which indicate that the OS should reattempt the same call with the same arguments at some point in the future. Current versions of PAPR are less than clear about this, but the intended meanings of these values in more detail are: RTAS_BUSY (-2): RTAS has suspended a potentially long-running operation in order to meet its latency obligation and give the OS the opportunity to perform other work. RTAS can resume making progress as soon as the OS reattempts the call. RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_{MIN...MAX} (9900-9905): RTAS must wait for an external event to occur or for internal contention to resolve before it can complete the requested operation. The value encodes a non-binding hint as to roughly how long the OS should wait before calling again, but the OS is allowed to reattempt the call sooner or even immediately. Linux of course must take its own CPU scheduling obligations into account when handling these statuses; e.g. a task which receives an RTAS_BUSY status should check whether to reschedule before it attempts the RTAS call again to avoid starving other tasks. rtas_busy_delay() is a helper function that "consumes" a busy or extended delay status. Common usage: int rc; do { rc = rtas_call(rtas_token("some-function"), ...); } while (rtas_busy_delay(rc)); /* convert rc to Linux error value, etc */ If rc is a busy or extended delay status, the caller can rely on rtas_busy_delay() to perform an appropriate sleep or reschedule and return nonzero. Other statuses are handled normally by the caller. The current implementation of rtas_busy_delay() both oversleeps and overuses the CPU: * It performs msleep() for all 990x and even when no delay is suggested (-2), but this is understood to actually sleep for two jiffies minimum in practice (20ms with HZ=100). 9900 (1ms) and 9901 (10ms) appear to be the most common extended delay statuses, and the oversleeping measurably lengthens DLPAR operations, which perform many RTAS calls. * It does not sleep on 990x unless need_resched() is true, causing code like the loop above to needlessly retry, wasting CPU time. Alter the logic to align better with the intended meanings: * When passed RTAS_BUSY, perform cond_resched() and return without sleeping. The caller should reattempt immediately * Always sleep when passed an extended delay status, using usleep_range() for precise shorter sleeps. Limit the sleep time to one second even though there are higher architected values. Change rtas_busy_delay()'s return type to bool to better reflect its usage, and add kernel-doc. rtas_busy_delay_time() is unchanged, even though it "incorrectly" returns 1 for RTAS_BUSY. There are users of that API with open-coded delay loops in sensitive contexts that will have to be taken on an individual basis. Brief results for addition and removal of 5GB memory on a small P9 PowerVM partition follow. Load was generated with stress-ng --cpu N. For add, elapsed time is greatly reduced without significant change in the number of RTAS calls or time spent on CPU. For remove, elapsed time is modestly reduced, with significant reductions in RTAS calls and time spent on CPU.

Remove the pseries scanlog driver. This code supports functions from Power4-era servers that are not present on targets currently supported by arch/powerpc. System manuals from this time have this description: Scan Dump data is a set of chip data that the service processor gathers after a system malfunction. It consists of chip scan rings, chip trace arrays, and Scan COM (SCOM) registers. This data is stored in the scan-log partition of the system’s Nonvolatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM). PowerVM partition firmware development doesn't recognize the associated function call or property, and they don't see any references to them in their codebase. It seems to have been specific to non-virtualized pseries.
