This code is common to a few exceptions, and another user will be added. This causes a trivial change to generated code: - 604: std r9,416(r1) - 608: mfspr r11,314 - 60c: std r11,368(r1) - 610: mfspr r12,315 + 604: mfspr r11,314 + 608: mfspr r12,315 + 60c: std r9,416(r1) + 610: std r11,368(r1) machine_check_powernv_early could also use this, but that requires non trivial changes to generated code, so that's for another patch.

Cell will wake from low power state at the system reset interrupt, with the event encoded in SRR1, rather than waking at the interrupt vector that corresponds to that event. The system reset handler for this platform decodes SRR1 event reason and calls the interrupt handler to process it directly from the system reset handlre. A subsequent change will treat the system reset interrupt as a Linux NMI with its own per-CPU stack, and this will no longer work. Remove the external and decrementer handlers from the system reset handler. - The external exception remains raised and will fire again at the EE interrupt vector when system reset returns. - The decrementer is set to 1 so it will be raised again and fire when the system reset returns. It is possible to branch to an idle handler from the system reset interrupt (like POWER does), then restore a normal stack and restore this optimisation. But simplicity wins for now.

_tlbiel_pid() is called with a ric (Radix Invalidation Control) argument of either RIC_FLUSH_TLB or RIC_FLUSH_ALL. RIC_FLUSH_ALL says to invalidate the entire TLB and the Page Walk Cache (PWC). To flush the whole TLB, we have to iterate over each set (congruence class) of the TLB. Currently we do that and pass RIC_FLUSH_ALL each time. That is not incorrect but it means we flush the PWC 128 times, when once would suffice. Fix it by doing the first flush with the ric value we're passed, and then if it was RIC_FLUSH_ALL, we downgrade it to RIC_FLUSH_TLB, because we know we have just flushed the PWC and don't need to do it again.

Currently we implement flushing of the page walk cache (PWC) by calling _tlbiel_pid() with a RIC (Radix Invalidation Control) value of 1 which says to only flush the PWC. But _tlbiel_pid() loops over each set (congruence class) of the TLB, which is not necessary when we're just flushing the PWC. In fact the set argument is ignored for a PWC flush, so essentially we're just flushing the PWC 127 extra times for no benefit. Fix it by adding tlbiel_pwc() which just does a single flush of the PWC.

Recently we merged the native xive support for Power9, and then separately some reworks for doorbell IPI support. In isolation both series were OK, but the merged result had a bug in one case. On P9 DD1 we use pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi() which tries to use doorbells, and then falls back to the interrupt controller. However the fallback is implemented by calling icp_ops->cause_ipi. But now that xive support is merged we might be using xive, in which case icp_ops is not initialised, it's a xics specific structure. This leads to an oops such as: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000028 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] NIP pnv_p9_dd1_cause_ipi+0x74/0xe0 LR smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass+0x54/0x70 To fix it, rather than using icp_ops which might be NULL, have both xics and xive set smp_ops->cause_ipi, and then in the powernv code we save that as ic_cause_ipi before overriding smp_ops->cause_ipi. For paranoia add a WARN_ON() to check if somehow smp_ops->cause_ipi is NULL. Fixes: b866cc21 ("powerpc: Change the doorbell IPI calling convention") Tested-by: Gautham R.

The recent patch to add runtime configuration of the ASLR limits added a bug in arch_mmap_rnd() where we may shift an integer (32-bits) by up to 33 bits, leading to undefined behaviour. In practice it exhibits as every process seg faulting instantly, presumably because the rnd value hasn't been restricited by the modulus at all. We didn't notice because it only happens under certain kernel configurations and if the number of bits is actually set to a large value. Fix it by switching to unsigned long.

powerpc expects IRQs to already be (soft) disabled when switch_mm() is called, as made clear in the commit message of 9c1e1052 ("powerpc: Allow perf_counters to access user memory at interrupt time"). Aside from any race conditions that might exist between switch_mm() and an IRQ, there is also an unconditional hard_irq_disable() in switch_slb(). If that isn't followed at some point by an IRQ enable then interrupts will remain disabled until we return to userspace. It is true that when switch_mm() is called from the scheduler IRQs are off, but not when it's called by use_mm(). Looking closer we see that last year in commit f98db601 ("sched/core: Add switch_mm_irqs_off() and use it in the scheduler") this was made more explicit by the addition of switch_mm_irqs_off() which is now called by the scheduler, vs switch_mm() which is used by use_mm(). Arguably it is a bug in use_mm() to call switch_mm() in a different context than it expects, but fixing that will take time. This was discovered recently when vhost started throwing warnings such as: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/mutex.c:578 in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, pid: 10768, name: vhost-10760 no locks held by vhost-10760/10768. irq event stamp: 10 hardirqs last enabled at (9): _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x40/0x80 hardirqs last disabled at (10): switch_slb+0x2e4/0x490 softirqs last enabled at (0): copy_process+0x5e8/0x1260 softirqs last disabled at (0): (null) Call Trace: show_stack+0x88/0x390 (unreliable) dump_stack+0x30/0x44 __might_sleep+0x1c4/0x2d0 mutex_lock_nested+0x74/0x5c0 cgroup_attach_task_all+0x5c/0x180 vhost_attach_cgroups_work+0x58/0x80 [vhost] vhost_worker+0x24c/0x3d0 [vhost] kthread+0xec/0x100 ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xd4 Prior to commit 04b96e55 ("vhost: lockless enqueuing") (Aug 2016) the vhost_worker() would do a spin_unlock_irq() not long after calling use_mm(), which had the effect of reenabling IRQs. Since that commit removed the locking in vhost_worker() the body of the vhost_worker() loop now runs with interrupts off causing the warnings. This patch addresses the problem by making the powerpc code mirror the x86 code, ie. we disable interrupts in switch_mm(), and optimise the scheduler case by defining switch_mm_irqs_off().

For CPUs present at boot each logical CPU acquires a reference to the associated device node of the core. This happens in register_cpu() which is called by topology_init(). The result of this is that we end up with a reference held by each thread of the core. However, these references are never freed if the CPU core is DLPAR removed. This patch fixes the reference leaks by acquiring and releasing the references in the CPU hotplug callbacks un/register_cpu_online(). With this patch symmetric reference counting is observed with both CPUs present at boot, and those DLPAR added after boot.

Historically struct device_node references were tracked using a kref embedded as a struct field. Commit 75b57ecf ("of: Make device nodes kobjects so they show up in sysfs") (Mar 2014) refactored device_nodes to be kobjects such that the device tree could by more simply exposed to userspace using sysfs. Commit 0829f6d1 ("of: device_node kobject lifecycle fixes") (Mar 2014) followed up these changes to better control the kobject lifecycle and in particular the referecne counting via of_node_get(), of_node_put(), and of_node_init(). A result of this second commit was that it introduced an of_node_put() call when a dynamic node is detached, in of_node_remove(), that removes the initial kobj reference created by of_node_init(). Traditionally as the original dynamic device node user the pseries code had assumed responsibilty for releasing this final reference in its platform specific DLPAR detach code. This patch fixes a refcount underflow introduced by commit 0829f6d1, and recently exposed by the upstreaming of the recount API.

KPROBES_ON_FTRACE avoids much of the overhead of regular kprobes as it eliminates the need for a trap, as well as the need to emulate or single-step instructions. Though OPTPROBES provides us with similar performance, we have limited optprobes trampoline slots. As such, when asked to probe at a function entry, default to using the ftrace infrastructure.

Along similar lines as commit 9326638c ("kprobes, x86: Use NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() instead of __kprobes annotation"), convert __kprobes annotation to either NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() or nokprobe_inline. The latter forces inlining, in which case the caller needs to be added to NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(). Also: - blacklist arch_deref_entry_point(), and - convert a few regular inlines to nokprobe_inline in lib/sstep.c A key benefit is the ability to detect such symbols as being blacklisted.

If not all threads were in winkle, full state loss recovery is not necessary and can be avoided. A previous patch removed this optimisation due to some complexity with the implementation. Re-implement it by counting the number of threads in winkle with the per-core idle state. Only restore full state loss if all threads were in winkle. This has a small window of false positives right before threads execute winkle and just after they wake up, when the winkle count does not reflect the true number of threads in winkle. This is not a significant problem in comparison with even the minimum winkle duration. For correctness, a false positive is not a problem (only false negatives would be). Reviewed-by: Gautham R.

The ISA specifies power save wakeup due to a machine check exception can cause a machine check interrupt (rather than the usual system reset interrupt). The machine check handler copes with this by doing low level machine check recovery without restoring full state from idle, then queues up a machine check event for logging, then directly executes the same idle instruction it woke from. This minimises the work done before recovery is performed. The problem is that it requires machine specific instructions and knowledge of the book3s idle code. Currently it only has code to handle POWER8 idle, so POWER9 crashes when trying to execute the P8 idle instructions which don't exist in ISAv3.0B. cpu 0x0: Vector: e40 (Emulation Assist) at [c0000000008f3810] pc: c000000000008380: machine_check_handle_early+0x130/0x2f0 lr: c00000000053a098: stop_loop+0x68/0xd0 sp: c0000000008f3a90 msr: 9000000000081001 current = 0xc0000000008a1080 paca = 0xc00000000ffd0000 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 0, comm = swapper/0 Instead of going to sleep after recovery, do the usual idle wakeup and state restoration by calling into the normal idle wakeup path.

The POWER8 idle code has a neat trick of programming the power on engine to restore a low bit into HSPRG0, so idle wakeup code can test and see if it has been programmed this way and therefore lost all state. Restore time can be reduced if winkle has not been reached. However this messes with our r13 PACA pointer, and requires HSPRG0 to be written to. It also optimizes the slowest and most uncommon case at the expense of another SPR write in the common nap state wakeup. Remove this complexity and assume winkle sleeps always require a state restore. This speedup could be made entirely contained within the winkle idle code by counting per-core winkles and setting a thread bitmap when all have gone to winkle. Reviewed-by: Gautham R.

Add powerpc support for mmap_rnd_bits and mmap_rnd_compat_bits, which are two sysctls that allow a user to configure the number of bits of randomness used for ASLR. Because of the way the Kconfig for ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS is defined, we have to construct at least the MIN value in Kconfig, vs in a header which would be more natural. Given that we just go ahead and do it all in Kconfig. At least according to the code (the documentation makes no mention of it), the value is defined as the number of bits of randomisation *of the page*, not the address. This makes some sense, with larger page sizes more of the low bits are forced to zero, which would reduce the randomisation if we didn't take the PAGE_SIZE into account. However it does mean the min/max values have to change depending on the PAGE_SIZE in order to actually limit the amount of address space consumed by the randomisation. The result of that is that we have to define the default values based on both 32-bit vs 64-bit, but also the configured PAGE_SIZE. Furthermore now that we have 128TB address space support on Book3S, we also have to take that into account. Finally we can wire up the value in arch_mmap_rnd().
