Most users of RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction Services) use rtas_call(), which deals with locking as well as endian handling. However we have two users outside of rtas.c that can't use rtas_call() because they have different locking requirements. The hotplug CPU code can't take the RTAS lock because the CPU would go offline with the lock held and no other CPUs would be able to call RTAS until the CPU came back online. The xmon code doesn't want to take the lock because it would risk dead locking when we are trying to recover from a crash. Both sites required multiple patches when we added little endian support, proving that programmers can't do endian right. Although that ship has sailed, we can still clean the code up by providing an unlocked version of rtas_call() which avoids the need to open code the logic elsewhere.

Long ago, only in the lab, there was OPALv1 and OPALv2. Now there is just OPALv3, with nobody ever expecting anything on pre-OPALv3 to be cared about or supported by mainline kernels. So, let's remove FW_FEATURE_OPALv3 and instead use FW_FEATURE_OPAL exclusively. Signed-off-by:

OPALv2 only ever existed in the lab and didn't escape to the world. All OPAL systems in the wild are OPALv3. The probability of there being an OPALv2 system still powered on anywhere inside IBM is approximately zero, let alone anyone expecting to run mainline kernels. So, start to remove references to OPALv2. Signed-off-by:

The OpenPower Abstraction Layer firmware went through a couple of iterations in the lab before being released. What we now know as OPAL advertises itself as OPALv3. OPALv2 and OPALv1 never made it outside the lab, and the possibility of anyone at all ever building a mainline kernel today and expecting it to boot on such hardware is zero. Signed-off-by:

HMIs (Hypervisor Management|Maintenance Interrupts) are a class of interrupt on POWER systems. HMI support has traditionally been exceptionally difficult to test, however Skiboot ships a tool that, with the correct magic numbers, will inject them. This, therefore, is a first pass at a script to inject HMIs and monitor Linux's response. It injects an HMI on each core on every chip in turn It then watches dmesg to see if it's acknowledged by Linux. On a Tuletta, I observed that we see 8 (or sometimes 9 or more) events per injection, regardless of SMT setting, so we wait for 8 before progressing. It sits in a new scripts/ directory in selftests/powerpc, because it's not designed to be run as part of the regular make selftests process. In particular, it is quite possibly going to end up garding lots of your CPUs, so it should only be run if you know how to undo that.

GregorianDay() is supposed to calculate the day of the week (tm->tm_wday) for a given day/month/year. In that calcuation it indexed into an array called MonthOffset using tm->tm_mon-1. However tm_mon is zero-based, not one-based, so this is off-by-one. It also means that every January, GregoiranDay() will access element -1 of the MonthOffset array. It also doesn't appear to be a correct algorithm either: see in contrast kernel/time/timeconv.c's time_to_tm function. It's been broken forever, which suggests no-one in userland uses this. It looks like no-one in the kernel uses tm->tm_wday either (see e.g. drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1305.c:319). tm->tm_wday is conventionally set to -1 when not available in hardware so we can simply set it to -1 and drop the function. (There are over a dozen other drivers in drivers/rtc that do this.) Found using UBSAN.

When a transaction is aborted, VSR values should rollback to the checkpointed values before the transaction began. VSRs used elsewhere in the kernel during a transaction, or while the transaction is suspended should not affect the checkpointed values. Prior to the bug fix in commit d31626f7 ("powerpc: Don't corrupt transactional state when using FP/VMX in kernel") when VMX was requested by the kernel the .vr_state (which held the checkpointed state of VSRs before the transaction) was overwritten with the current state from outside the transation. Thus if the transaction did not complete, the VSR values would be "rolled back" to potentially incorrect values. Signed-off-by:

Currently if you are in xmon without an oops etc. to view the kernel version you have to type "d $linux_banner" - not necessarily obvious. As this is useful information, append to the output of "e" command.

Kernel prints respective warnings about various EPOW events for user information/action after parsing EPOW interrupts. At times below EPOW reset event warning is seen to be flooding kernel log over a period of time. May 25 03:46:34 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 03:46:52 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 03:53:48 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 03:55:46 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 03:56:34 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 03:59:04 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared May 25 04:02:01 alp kernel: Non critical power or cooling issue cleared These EPOW reset events are spurious in nature and are triggered by firmware without an actual EPOW event being reset. This patch avoids these multiple EPOW reset warnings by using a counter variable. This variable is incremented every time an EPOW event is reported. Upon receiving a EPOW reset event the same variable is checked to filter out spurious events and decremented accordingly. This patch also improves log messages to better describe EPOW event being reported. Merged adjacent log messages into single one to reduce number of lines printed per event. Signed-off-by:

Print MSR TM bits in oops messages. This appends them to the end like this: MSR: 8000000502823031 <SF,VEC,VSX,FP,ME,IR,DR,LE,TM[TE]> You get the TM[] only if at least one TM MSR bit is set. Inside the TM[], E means Enabled (bit 32), S means Suspended (bit 33), and T means Transactional (bit 34) If no bits are set, you get no TM[] output. Include rework of printbits() to handle this case. Signed-off-by: -

According to memory-barriers.txt, xchg*, cmpxchg* and their atomic_ versions all need to be fully ordered, however they are now just RELEASE+ACQUIRE, which are not fully ordered. So also replace PPC_RELEASE_BARRIER and PPC_ACQUIRE_BARRIER with PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER and PPC_ATOMIC_EXIT_BARRIER in __{cmp,}xchg_{u32,u64} respectively to guarantee fully ordered semantics of atomic{,64}_{cmp,}xchg() and {cmp,}xchg(), as a complement of commit b97021f8 ("powerpc: Fix atomic_xxx_return barrier semantics") This patch depends on patch "powerpc: Make value-returning atomics fully ordered" for PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER definition.

According to memory-barriers.txt: > Any atomic operation that modifies some state in memory and returns > information about the state (old or new) implies an SMP-conditional > general memory barrier (smp_mb()) on each side of the actual > operation ... Which mean these operations should be fully ordered. However on PPC, PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER is the barrier before the actual operation, which is currently "lwsync" if SMP=y. The leading "lwsync" can not guarantee fully ordered atomics, according to Paul Mckenney: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/14/970 To fix this, we define PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER as "sync" to guarantee the fully-ordered semantics. This also makes futex atomics fully ordered, which can avoid possible memory ordering problems if userspace code relies on futex system call for fully ordered semantics.

For a pte entry we will have _PAGE_PTE set. Our pte page address have a minimum alignment requirement of HUGEPD_SHIFT_MASK + 1. We use the lower 7 bits to indicate hugepd. ie. For pmd and pgd we can find: 1) _PAGE_PTE set pte -> indicate PTE 2) bits [2..6] non zero -> indicate hugepd. They also encode the size. We skip bit 1 (_PAGE_PRESENT). 3) othewise pointer to next table. Acked-by:

This free up 11 bits in pte_t. In the later patch we also change the pte_t format so that we can start supporting migration pte at pmd level. We now track 4k subpage valid bit as below If we have _PAGE_COMBO set, we override the _PAGE_F_GIX_SHIFT and _PAGE_F_SECOND. Together we have 4 bits, each of them used to indicate whether any of the 4 4k subpage in that group is valid. ie, [ group 1 bit ] [ group 2 bit ] ..... [ group 4 ] [ subpage 1 - 4] [ subpage 5- 8] ..... [ subpage 13 - 16] We still track each 4k subpage slot number and secondary hash information in the second half of pgtable_t. Removing the subpage tracking have some significant overhead on aim9 and ebizzy benchmark and to support THP with 4K subpage, we do need a pgtable_t of 4096 bytes. Signed-off-by:
