GCC v8 defaults to enabling -fasynchronous-unwind-tables due to https://gcc.gnu.org/r259298, which results in .eh_frame section being generated. This results in additional disk usage by the build, as well as the kernel modules. Since the kernel has no use for this, this section is discarded. Add -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to KBUILD_CFLAGS to suppress generation of .eh_frame section. Note that our VDSOs need .eh_frame, but are not affected by this change since our VDSO code are all in assembly. Reported-by:

The original commit/discussion adding -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm refers to R_PPC64_REL32 relocations not being handled by our module loader: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20090224065112.GA6690@bombadil.infradead.org However, that is now handled thanks to commit 9f751b82 ("powerpc/module: Add support for R_PPC64_REL32 relocations"). So, drop this flag from our Makefile. Signed-off-by:

Commit bf957155 ("powerpc/powernv: Add support to clear sensor groups data") added a mechanism to clear sensor-group data via a sysfs interface. However, the ABI for that interface has not been documented. This patch documents the ABI for the sysfs interface for sensor-groups and clearing the sensor-groups.

We added a usage of try-run to pmu/ebb/Makefile to detect if the toolchain supported the -no-pie option. This fails if we build out-of-tree and the source tree is not writable, as try-run tries to write its temporary files to the current directory. That leads to the -no-pie option being silently dropped, which leads to broken executables with some toolchains. If we remove the redirect to /dev/null in try-run, we see the error: make[3]: Entering directory '/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/pmu/ebb' /usr/bin/ld: cannot open output file .54.tmp: Read-only file system collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'all'. And looking with strace we see it's trying to use a file that's in the source tree: lstat("/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/pmu/ebb/.54.tmp", 0x7ffffc0f83c8) We can fix it by setting TMPOUT to point to the $(OUTPUT) directory, and we can verify with strace it's now trying to write to the output directory: lstat("/output/kselftest/powerpc/pmu/ebb/.54.tmp", 0x7fffd1bf6bf8) And also see that the -no-pie option is now correctly detected.

Regular interrupt return restores NVGPRS whereas lite returns do not. This is clumsy: most interrupts can return without restoring NVGPRS in most of the time, but there are special cases that require it (when registers have been modified by the kernel). So change interrupt return to not restore NVGPRS, and have interrupt handlers restore them explicitly in the cases that requires it. Signed-off-by:

Implement the bulk of interrupt return logic in C. The asm return code must handle a few cases: restoring full GPRs, and emulating stack store. The stack store emulation is significantly simplfied, rather than creating a new return frame and switching to that before performing the store, it uses the PACA to keep a scratch register around to perform the store. The asm return code is moved into 64e for now. The new logic has made allowance for 64e, but I don't have a full environment that works well to test it, and even booting in emulated qemu is not great for stress testing. 64e shouldn't be too far off working with this, given a bit more testing and auditing of the logic. This is slightly faster on a POWER9 (page fault speed increases about 1.1%), probably due to reduced mtmsrd. mpe: Includes fixes from Nick for _TIF_EMULATE_STACK_STORE handling (including the fast_interrupt_return path), to remove trace_hardirqs_on(), and fixes the interrupt-return part of the MSR_VSX restore bug caught by tm-unavailable selftest. mpe: Incorporate fix from Nick: The return-to-kernel path has to replay any soft-pending interrupts if it is returning to a context that had interrupts soft-enabled. It has to do this carefully and avoid plain enabling interrupts if this is an irq context, which can cause multiple nesting of interrupts on the stack, and other unexpected issues. The code which avoided this case got the soft-mask state wrong, and marked interrupts as enabled before going around again to retry. This seems to be mostly harmless except when PREEMPT=y, this calls preempt_schedule_irq with irqs apparently enabled and runs into a BUG in kernel/sched/core.c Signed-off-by:

When local_irq_enable() finds a pending soft-masked interrupt, it "replays" it by setting up registers like the initial interrupt entry, then calls into the low level handler to set up an interrupt stack frame and process the interrupt. This is not necessary, and uses more stack than needed. The high level interrupt handler can be called directly from C, with just pt_regs set up on stack. This should be faster and use less stack.

System call entry and particularly exit code is beyond the limit of what is reasonable to implement in asm. This conversion moves all conditional branches out of the asm code, except for the case that all GPRs should be restored at exit. Null syscall test is about 5% faster after this patch, because the exit work is handled under local_irq_disable, and the hard mask and pending interrupt replay is handled after that, which avoids games with MSR. mpe: Includes subsequent fixes from Nick: This fixes 4 issues caught by TM selftests. First was a tm-syscall bug that hit due to tabort_syscall being called after interrupts were reconciled (in a subsequent patch), which led to interrupts being enabled before tabort_syscall was called. Rather than going through an un-reconciling interrupts for the return, I just go back to putting the test early in asm, the C-ification of that wasn't a big win anyway. Second is the syscall return _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK check would go into an infinite loop if _TIF_RESTORE_TM became set. The asm code uses _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to brach to slowpath which includes restore_tm_state. Third is system call return was not calling restore_tm_state, I missed this completely (alhtough it's in the return from interrupt C conversion because when the asm syscall code encountered problems it would branch to the interrupt return code. Fourth is MSR_VEC missing from restore_math, which was caught by tm-unavailable selftest taking an unexpected facility unavailable interrupt when testing VSX unavailble exception with MSR.FP=1 MSR.VEC=1. Fourth case also has a fixup in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by:

powerpc has an optimisation where interrupts avoid saving the non-volatile (or callee saved) registers to the interrupt stack frame if they are not required. Two problems with this are that an interrupt does not always know whether it will need non-volatiles; and if it does need them, they can only be saved from the entry-scoped asm code (because we don't control what the C compiler does with these registers). system calls are the most difficult: some system calls always require all registers (e.g., fork, to copy regs into the child). Sometimes registers are only required under certain conditions (e.g., tracing, signal delivery). These cases require ugly logic in the call chains (e.g., ppc_fork), and require a lot of logic to be implemented in asm. So remove the optimisation for system calls, and always save NVGPRs on entry. Modern high performance CPUs are not so sensitive, because the stores are dense in cache and can be hidden by other expensive work in the syscall path -- the null syscall selftests benchmark on POWER9 is not slowed (124.40ns before and 123.64ns after, i.e., within the noise). Other interrupts retain the NVGPR optimisation for now. Signed-off-by:

The soft NMI handler does not reconcile interrupt state, so it should not return via the normal ret_from_except path. Return like other NMIs, using the EXCEPTION_RESTORE_REGS macro. This becomes important when the scv interrupt is implemented, which must handle soft-masked interrupts that have r13 set to something other than the PACA -- returning to kernel in this case must restore r13.

This adds IRQ_HARD_DIS to irq_happened. Although it doesn't seem to matter much because we're not allowed to enable irqs in an NMI handler, the soft-irq debugging code is becoming more strict about ensuring IRQ_HARD_DIS is in sync with MSR[EE], this may help avoid asserts or other issues. Add a comment explaining why MCE does not have this. Early machine check is generally much smaller and more contained code which will explode if you look at it wrong anyway as it runs in real mode, though there's an argument that we should do similar reconciling for the MCE as well.

Apart from SRESET, MCE, and syscall (hcall variant), the SRR type interrupts are not escalated to hypervisor mode, so are delivered to the OS. When running PR KVM, the OS is the hypervisor, and the guest runs with MSR[PR]=1 (ie. usermode), so these interrupts must test if a guest was running when interrupted. These tests are required at the real-mode entry points because the PR KVM host runs with LPCR[AIL]=0. In HV KVM and nested HV KVM, the guest always receives these interrupts, so there is no need for the host to make this test. So remove the tests if PR KVM is not configured. Signed-off-by:

The hdec interrupt handler is reported to sometimes fire in Linux if KVM leaves it pending after a guest exists. This is harmless, so there is a no-op handler for it. The interrupt handler currently uses the regular kernel stack. Change this to avoid touching the stack entirely. This should be the last place where the regular Linux stack can be accessed with asynchronous interrupts (including PMI) soft-masked. It might be possible to take advantage of this invariant, e.g., to context switch the kernel stack SLB entry without clearing MSR[EE]. Signed-off-by:

Replace IEARLY=1 and IEARLY=2 with IBRANCH_COMMON, which controls if the entry code branches to a common handler; and IREALMODE_COMMON, which controls whether the common handler should remain in real mode. These special cases no longer avoid loading the SRR registers, there is no point as most of them load the registers immediately anyway. Signed-off-by:

This allows more code to be moved out of unrelocated regions. The system call KVMTEST is changed to be open-coded and remain in the tramp area to avoid having to move it to entry_64.S. The custom nature of the system call entry code means the hcall case can be made more streamlined than regular interrupt handlers. mpe: Incorporate fix from Nick: Moving KVM test to the common entry code missed the case of HMI and MCE, which do not do __GEN_COMMON_ENTRY (because they don't want to switch to virt mode). This means a MCE or HMI exception that is taken while KVM is running a guest context will not be switched out of that context, and KVM won't be notified. Found by running sigfuz in guest with patched host on POWER9 DD2.3, which causes some TM related HMI interrupts (which are expected and supposed to be handled by KVM). This fix adds a __GEN_REALMODE_COMMON_ENTRY for those handlers to add the KVM test. This makes them look a little more like other handlers that all use __GEN_COMMON_ENTRY. Signed-off-by:

The real mode interrupt entry points currently use rfid to branch to the common handler in virtual mode. This is a significant amount of code, and forces other code (notably the KVM test) to live in the real mode handler. In the interest of minimising the amount of code that runs unrelocated move the switch to virt mode into the common code, and do it with mtmsrd, which avoids clobbering SRRs (although the post-KVMTEST performance of real-mode interrupt handlers is not a big concern these days). This requires CTR to always be saved (real-mode needs to reach 0xc...) but that's not a huge impact these days. It could be optimized away in future. mpe: Incorporate fix from Nick: It's possible for interrupts to be replayed when TM is enabled and suspended, for example rt_sigreturn, where the mtmsrd MSR_KERNEL in the real-mode entry point to the common handler causes a TM Bad Thing exception (due to attempting to clear suspended). The fix for this is to have replay interrupts go to the _virt entry point and skip the mtmsrd, which matches what happens before this patch. Signed-off-by:
