      PPC: POWERNV: move iommu_add_device earlier · d905c5df
      Alexey Kardashevskiy authored
      The current implementation of IOMMU on sPAPR does not use iommu_ops
      and therefore does not call IOMMU API's bus_set_iommu() which
      1) sets iommu_ops for a bus
      2) registers a bus notifier
      Instead, PCI devices are added to IOMMU groups from
      subsys_initcall_sync(tce_iommu_init) which does basically the same
      thing without using iommu_ops callbacks.
      
      However Freescale PAMU driver (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/1/158)
      implements iommu_ops and when tce_iommu_init is called, every PCI device
      is already added to some group so there is a conflict.
      
      This patch does 2 things:
      1. removes the loop in which PCI devices were added to groups and
      adds explicit iommu_add_device() calls to add devices as soon as they get
      the iommu_table pointer assigned to them.
      2. moves a bus notifier to powernv code in order to avoid conflict with
      the notifier from Freescale driver.
      
      iommu_add_device() and iommu_del_device() are public now.

      powerpc/powernv: Infrastructure to read opal messages in generic format. · 24366360
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      Opal now has a new messaging infrastructure to push the messages to
      linux in a generic format for different type of messages using only one
      event bit. The format of the opal message is as below:
      
      struct opal_msg {
              uint32_t msg_type;
      	uint32_t reserved;
      	uint64_t params[8];
      };
      
      This patch allows clients to subscribe for notification for specific
      message type. It is upto the subscriber to decipher the messages who showed
      interested in receiving specific message type.
      
      The interface to subscribe for notification is:
      
      	int opal_message_notifier_register(enum OpalMessageType msg_type,
                                              struct notifier_block *nb)
      
      The notifier will fetch the opal message when available and notify the
      subscriber with message type and the opal message. It is subscribers
      responsibility to copy the message data before returning from notifier
      callback.

      powerpc/powernv: Machine check exception handling. · b63a0ffe
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      Add basic error handling in machine check exception handler.
      
      - If MSR_RI isn't set, we can not recover.
      - Check if disposition set to OpalMCE_DISPOSITION_RECOVERED.
      - Check if address at fault is inside kernel address space, if not then send
        SIGBUS to process if we hit exception when in userspace.
      - If address at fault is not provided then and if we get a synchronous machine
        check while in userspace then kill the task.

      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      When machine check real mode handler can not continue into host kernel
      in V mode, it returns from the interrupt and we loose MCE event which
      never gets logged. In such a situation queue up the MCE event so that
      we can log it later when we get back into host kernel with r1 pointing to
      kernel stack e.g. during syscall exit.

      powerpc/book3s: Decode and save machine check event. · 36df96f8
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      Now that we handle machine check in linux, the MCE decoding should also
      take place in linux host. This info is crucial to log before we go down
      in case we can not handle the machine check errors. This patch decodes
      and populates a machine check event which contain high level meaning full
      MCE information.
      
      We do this in real mode C code with ME bit on. The MCE information is still
      available on emergency stack (in pt_regs structure format). Even if we take
      another exception at this point the MCE early handler will allocate a new
      stack frame on top of current one. So when we return back here we still have
      our MCE information safe on current stack.
      
      We use per cpu buffer to save high level MCE information. Each per cpu buffer
      is an array of machine check event structure indexed by per cpu counter
      mce_nest_count. The mce_nest_count is incremented every time we enter
      machine check early handler in real mode to get the current free slot
      (index = mce_nest_count - 1). The mce_nest_count is decremented once the
      MCE info is consumed by virtual mode machine exception handler.
      
      This patch provides save_mce_event(), get_mce_event() and release_mce_event()
      generic routines that can be used by machine check handlers to populate and
      retrieve the event. The routine release_mce_event() will free the event slot so
      that it can be reused. Caller can invoke get_mce_event() with a release flag
      either to release the event slot immediately OR keep it so that it can be
      fetched again. The event slot can be also released anytime by invoking
      release_mce_event().
      
      This patch also updates kvm code to invoke get_mce_event to retrieve generic
      mce event rather than paca->opal_mce_evt.
      
      The KVM code always calls get_mce_event() with release flags set to false so
      that event is available for linus host machine
      
      If machine check occurs while we are in guest, KVM tries to handle the error.
      If KVM is able to handle MC error successfully, it enters the guest and
      delivers the machine check to guest. If KVM is not able to handle MC error, it
      exists the guest and passes the control to linux host machine check handler
      which then logs MC event and decides how to handle it in linux host. In failure
      case, KVM needs to make sure that the MC event is available for linux host to
      consume. Hence KVM always calls get_mce_event() with release flags set to false
      and later it invokes release_mce_event() only if it succeeds to handle error.

      powerpc/book3s: Introduce a early machine check hook in cpu_spec. · 4c703416
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      This patch adds the early machine check function pointer in cputable for
      CPU specific early machine check handling. The early machine handle routine
      will be called in real mode to handle SLB and TLB errors. We can not reuse
      the existing machine_check hook because it is always invoked in kernel
      virtual mode and we would already be in trouble if we get SLB or TLB errors.
      This patch just sets up a mechanism to invoke CPU specific handler. The
      subsequent patches will populate the function pointer.

      We can get machine checks from any context. We need to make sure that
      we handle all of them correctly. If we are coming from hypervisor user-space,
      we can continue in host kernel in virtual mode to deliver the MC event.
      If we got woken up from power-saving mode then we may come in with one of
      the following state:
       a. No state loss
       b. Supervisor state loss
       c. Hypervisor state loss
      For (a) and (b), we go back to nap again. State (c) is fatal, keep spinning.
      
      For all other context which we not sure of queue up the MCE event and return
      from the interrupt.

      powerpc/book3s: handle machine check in Linux host. · 1e9b4507
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      Move machine check entry point into Linux. So far we were dependent on
      firmware to decode MCE error details and handover the high level info to OS.
      
      This patch introduces early machine check routine that saves the MCE
      information (srr1, srr0, dar and dsisr) to the emergency stack. We allocate
      stack frame on emergency stack and set the r1 accordingly. This allows us to be
      prepared to take another exception without loosing context. One thing to note
      here that, if we get another machine check while ME bit is off then we risk a
      checkstop. Hence we restrict ourselves to save only MCE information and
      register saved on PACA_EXMC save are before we turn the ME bit on. We use
      paca->in_mce flag to differentiate between first entry and nested machine check
      entry which helps proper use of emergency stack. We increment paca->in_mce
      every time we enter in early machine check handler and decrement it while
      leaving. When we enter machine check early handler first time (paca->in_mce ==
      0), we are sure nobody is using MC emergency stack and allocate a stack frame
      at the start of the emergency stack. During subsequent entry (paca->in_mce >
      0), we know that r1 points inside emergency stack and we allocate separate
      stack frame accordingly. This prevents us from clobbering MCE information
      during nested machine checks.
      
      The early machine check handler changes are placed under CPU_FTR_HVMODE
      section. This makes sure that the early machine check handler will get executed
      only in hypervisor kernel.
      
      This is the code flow:

      powerpc/book3s: Introduce exclusive emergency stack for machine check exception. · 729b0f71
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      This patch introduces exclusive emergency stack for machine check exception.
      We use emergency stack to handle machine check exception so that we can save
      MCE information (srr1, srr0, dar and dsisr) before turning on ME bit and be
      ready for re-entrancy. This helps us to prevent clobbering of MCE information
      in case of nested machine checks.
      
      The reason for using emergency stack over normal kernel stack is that the
      machine check might occur in the middle of setting up a stack frame which may
      result into improper use of kernel stack.

      The second and third part will be reused in the machine check exception
      routine in the subsequent patch.
      
      Please note that this patch does not introduce or change existing code
      logic. Instead it is just a code movement and instruction re-ordering.

      powerpc/signals: Improved mark VSX not saved with small contexts fix · ec67ad82
      Michael Neuling authored
      In a recent patch:
        commit c13f20ac
        Author: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org>
        powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contexts
      
      We fixed an issue but an improved solution was later discussed after the patch
      was merged.
      
      Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit
      this issue (but has never been reported).
      
      Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to.  The
      new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the
      context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when
      VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the
      state).
      
      This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution.  It
      also adds a 64 bit version.

      powerpc/kdump: Adding symbols in vmcoreinfo to facilitate dump filtering · 8ff81271
      Hari Bathini authored
      When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP option is used in kernel, makedumpfile fails
      to filter vmcore dump as it fails to do vmemmap translations. So far
      dump filtering on ppc64 never had to deal with vmemmap addresses seperately
      as vmemmap regions where mapped in zone normal. But with the inclusion of
      CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP config option in kernel, this vmemmap address
      translation support becomes necessary for dump filtering. For vmemmap adress
      translation, few kernel symbols are needed by dump filtering tool. This patch
      adds those symbols to vmcoreinfo, which a dump filtering tool can use for
      filtering the kernel dump. Tested this changes successfully with makedumpfile
      tool that supports vmemmap to physical address translation outside zone normal.

        gcc-4.8.real: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mbig-endian’
        GEN     TAGS
        %
      
      I'm not setting CROSS_COMPILE= as logically I shouldn't need to and I
      haven't needed to in the past when building TAGS or cscope.  Also, the
      above completess correct as the error is not fatal to the build.
      
      This was caused by:
          commit d72b0801
          Author: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au1.ibm.com>
          powerpc: Add ability to build little endian kernels
      
      The below fixes this by testing for the -mbig-endian option before
      adding it.
      
      I've not done the same thing in the little endian case as if
      -mlittle-endian doesn't exist, we probably want to fail quickly as you
      probably have an old big endian compiler.
