When dumping the paca in xmon we currently show kstack. Although it's not hard it's a bit fiddly to work out what the bounds of the kernel stack should be based on the kstack value. To make life easier and "kstack_base" which is the base (lowest address) of the kernel stack, eg: kstack = 0xc0000000f1a7be30 (0x258) kstack_base = 0xc0000000f1a78000 Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Currently xmon could call XIVE functions from OPAL even if the XIVE is disabled or does not exist in the system, as in POWER8 machines. This causes the following exception: 1:mon> dx cpu 0x1: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c000000423c93450] pc: c00000000009cfa4: opal_xive_dump+0x50/0x68 lr: c0000000000997b8: opal_return+0x0/0x50 This patch simply checks if XIVE is enabled before calling XIVE functions.

Access to PSL/XSL_DEBUG registers on the adapter provides easy access to the debug facilities provided by PSL/XSL. So this patch adds two new files (debug, xsl-debug) to the cxl-adapter specific debugfs folder located at /sys/kernel/debugfs/cxl/card<n>, which will provide direct r/w access to corrosponding debug registers in the adapter config-space.

Unfortunately userspace can construct a sigcontext which enables suspend. Thus userspace can force Linux into a path where trechkpt is executed. This patch blocks this from happening on POWER9 by sanity checking sigcontexts passed in. ptrace doesn't have this problem as only MSR SE and BE can be changed via ptrace. This patch also adds a number of WARN_ON()s in case we ever enter suspend when we shouldn't. This should not happen, but if it does the symptoms are soft lockup warnings which are not obviously TM related, so the WARN_ON()s should make it obvious what's happening.

Some Power9 revisions can run in a mode where TM operates without suspended state. If we find ourself on a CPU that might be in this mode, we query OPAL to check, and if so we reenable TM in CPU features, and enable a new user feature to signal to userspace that we are in this mode. We do not enable the "normal" user feature, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM, but we do enable PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC because that indicates to userspace that the kernel will abort transactions on syscall entry, which is true regardless of the suspend mode.

Some CPUs can operate in a mode where TM (Transactional Memory) is enabled but the suspended state of TM is disabled. In this mode tsuspend does not enter suspended state, instead the transaction is aborted. Similarly any other event that would lead to suspended state instead aborts the transaction. There is also an ABI change, in that in this mode processes are not allowed to sigreturn with an MSR that would lead to suspended state, Linux will instead return an error to the sigreturn syscall.

Currently the kernel relies on firmware to inform it whether or not the CPU supports HTM and as long as the kernel was built with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=y then it will allow userspace to make use of the facility. There may be situations where it would be advantageous for the kernel to not allow userspace to use HTM, currently the only way to achieve this is to recompile the kernel with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=n. This patch adds a simple commandline option so that HTM can be disabled at boot time.

Michael Ellerman authored
Currently we use CPU_FTR_TM to decide if the CPU/kernel can support TM (Transactional Memory), and if it's true we advertise that to Qemu (or similar) via KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM. PPC_FEATURE2_HTM is the user-visible feature bit, which indicates that the CPU and kernel can support TM. Currently CPU_FTR_TM and PPC_FEATURE2_HTM always have the same value, either true or false, so using the former for KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM is correct. However some Power9 CPUs can operate in a mode where TM is enabled but TM suspended state is disabled. In this mode CPU_FTR_TM is true, but PPC_FEATURE2_HTM is false. Instead a different PPC_FEATURE2 bit is set, to indicate that this different mode of TM is available. It is not safe to let guests use TM as-is, when the CPU is in this mode. So to prevent that from happening, use PPC_FEATURE2_HTM to determine the value of KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This reverts commit 94a04bc2. In order to run HPT guests on a radix POWER9 host, we will have to run the host in single-threaded mode, because POWER9 processors do not currently support running some threads of a core in HPT mode while others are in radix mode ("mixed mode"). That means that we will need the same mechanisms that are used on POWER8 to make the secondary threads available to KVM, which were disabled on POWER9 by commit 94a04bc2.

powerpc/vphn: On Power systems with shared configurations of CPUs and memory, there are some issues with the association of additional CPUs and memory to nodes when hot-adding resources. This patch corrects the currently broken capability to set the topology for shared CPUs in LPARs. At boot time for shared CPU lpars, the topology for each CPU was being set to node zero. Now when numa_update_cpu_topology() is called appropriately, the Virtual Processor Home Node (VPHN) capabilities information provided by the pHyp allows the appropriate node in the shared configuration to be selected for the CPU.

If we are in user space and hit a UE error, we now have the basic infrastructure to walk the page tables and find out the effective address that was accessed, since the DAR is not valid. We use a work_queue content to hookup the bad pfn, any other context causes problems, since memory_failure itself can call into schedule() via lru_drain_ bits. We could probably poison the struct page to avoid a race between detection and taking corrective action.

Extract physical_address for UE errors by walking the page tables for the mm and address at the NIP, to extract the instruction. Then use the instruction to find the effective address via analyse_instr(). We might have page table walking races, but we expect them to be rare, the physical address extraction is best effort. The idea is to then hook up this infrastructure to memory failure eventually.

For PSL9 currently we aren't dumping the PSL FIR register when a PSL error interrupt is triggered. Contents of this register are useful in debugging AFU issues. This patch fixes issue by adding a new service_layer_ops callback cxl_native_err_irq_dump_regs_psl9() to dump the PSL_FIR registers on a PSL error interrupt thereby bringing the behavior in line with PSL on POWER-8. Also the existing service_layer_ops callback for PSL8 has been renamed to cxl_native_err_irq_dump_regs_psl8().

PSL9 doesn't have a FIR2 register as was the case with PSL8. However currently the register definitions in 'cxl.h' have a definition for PSL9_FIR2 that actually points to PSL9_FIR_MASK register in the P1 area at offset 0x308. So this patch renames the def PSL9_FIR2 to PSL9_FIR_MASK and updates the references in the code to point to the new identifier. It also removes the code to dump contents of FIR2 (FIR_MASK actually) in cxl_native_irq_dump_regs_psl9().

The PSL initialization sequence has been updated to DD2. This patch adapts to the changes, retaining compatibility with DD1. The patch includes some changes to DD1 fix-ups as well. Tests performed on some of the old/new hardware. The function is_page_fault(), for POWER9, lists the Translation Checkout Responses where the page fault will be handled by copro_handle_mm_fault(). This list is too restrictive and not necessary. This patches removes this restriction and all page faults, whatever the reason, will be handled. In this case, the interruption is always acknowledged. The following features will be added soon: - phb reset when switching to capi mode. - cxllib update to support new functions.

In opal_event_shutdown() we free all the IRQs hanging off the opal_event_irqchip.

Although it doesn't fully free the IRQ, it should be sufficient when we're shutting down, particularly in an emergency. Add an in_interrupt() check and use free_irq() when we're shutting down normally. It's probably OK to use disable_irq_nosync() in that case too, but for now it's safer to leave that behaviour as-is.

This was subsequently renamed to __is_active_jprobe(). In the case of a jprobe, kprobe_ftrace_handler() disables pre-emption before calling into setjmp_pre_handler() which returns without disabling pre-emption. This is done to ensure that the jprobe handler won't disappear beneath us if the jprobe is unregistered between the setjmp_pre_handler() and the subsequent longjmp_break_handler() called from the jprobe handler. Due to this, we can use __this_cpu_read() in __is_active_jprobe() with the pre-emption check as we know that pre-emption will be disabled. However, if this function has been livepatched, we are still doing this check and when we do so, pre-emption won't necessarily be disabled. This results in the call trace shown above. Fix this by only invoking __is_active_jprobe() when pre-emption is disabled. And since we now guard this within a pre-emption check, we can instead use raw_cpu_read() to get the current_kprobe value skipping the check done by __this_cpu_read().

Masami felt that the function name was not quite clear. To that end, this patch renames is_current_kprobe_addr() to __is_active_jprobe() and adds a comment to (hopefully) better clarify the purpose of this helper.

Currently, we disable instruction emulation if emulate_step() fails for any reason. However, such failures could be transient and specific to a particular run. Instead, only disable instruction emulation if we have never been able to emulate this. If we had emulated this instruction successfully at least once, then we single step only this probe hit and continue to try emulating the instruction in subsequent probe hits.

1. This is only used in kprobes.c, so make it static. 2. Remove the un-necessary (ret == 0) comparison in the else clause.

This configuration is used by the OpenPower firmware for it's Linux-as-bootloader implementation. Also known as the Petitboot kernel, this configuration broke in 4.12 (CPU_HOTPLUG=n), so add it to the upstream tree in order to get better coverage.

This fixes the emulated behaviour of existing fixed-point shift right algebraic instructions that are supposed to set both the CA and CA32 bits of XER when running on a system that is compliant with POWER ISA v3.0 independent of whether the system is executing in 32-bit mode or 64-bit mode. The following instructions are affected: * Shift Right Algebraic Word Immediate (srawi[.]) * Shift Right Algebraic Word (sraw[.]) * Shift Right Algebraic Doubleword Immediate (sradi[.]) * Shift Right Algebraic Doubleword (srad[.]) Fixes: 0016a4cf ("powerpc: Emulate most Book I instructions in emulate_step()") Signed-off-by: Sandipan Das <sandipan@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
