      powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU · b50a6c58
      Joel Stanley authored
      On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze
      the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset,
      resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host.
      
      We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane
      state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the
      host.
      
      This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency:
      
          $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8
            ...
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152
          min:    18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1)
          max:    0.000 GHz (cpu -1)
          avg:    0.000 GHz
      
      The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed
      amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine.
      The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of
      weather it was still running or had been shut down.
      
      By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is
      running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running:
      
          $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger'
          CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6
          PMC1:  5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000
          PMC5:  1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef
          MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000
          MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000
          EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000

      This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the
      guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has
      indicated it was using the PMU. This is okay, however the user of the
      PMU needs to ensure that it is in a defined state when it starts using
      it.

      powerpc/kvm: Remove redundant save of SIER AND MMCR2 · f73128f4
      Joel Stanley authored
      These two registers are already saved in the block above. Aside from
      being unnecessary, by the time we get down to the second save location
      r8 no longer contains MMCR2, so we are clobbering the saved value with
      PMC5.
      
      MMCR2 primarily consists of counter freeze bits. So restoring the value
      of PMC5 into MMCR2 will most likely have the effect of freezing
      counters.

      powerpc/powernv: Check for IRQHAPPENED before sleeping · c733cf83
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      Commit 8d6f7c5a: "powerpc/powernv: Make it possible to skip the IRQHAPPENED
      check in power7_nap()" added code that prevents cpus from checking for
      pending interrupts just before entering sleep state, which is wrong. These
      interrupts are delivered during the soft irq disabled state of the cpu.
      
      A cpu cannot enter any idle state with pending interrupts because they will
      never be serviced until the next time the cpu is woken up by some other
      interrupt. Its only then that the pending interrupts are replayed. This can result
      in device timeouts or warnings about this cpu being stuck.
      
      This patch fixes ths issue by ensuring that cpus check for pending interrupts
      just before entering any idle state as long as they are not in the path of split
      core operations.

      powerpc/module: Fix TOC symbol CRC · c2cbcf53
      Laurent Dufour authored
      The commit 71ec7c55 introduced the magic symbol ".TOC." for ELFv2 ABI.
      This symbol is built manually and has no CRC value computed. A zero value
      is put in the CRC section to avoid modpost complaining about a missing CRC.
      Unfortunately, this breaks the kernel module loading when the kernel is
      relocated (kdump case for instance) because of the relocation applied to
      the kcrctab values.
      
      This patch compute a CRC value for the TOC symbol which will match the one
      compute by the kernel when it is relocated - aka '0 - relocate_start' done in
      maybe_relocated called by check_version (module.c).

      powerpc/powernv: Remove OPAL v1 takeover · e2500be2
      Michael Ellerman authored
      In commit 27f44888 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support
      for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines.
      
      This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query
      for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special
      sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running
      in hypervisor mode.
      
      OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside
      IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it.
      
      Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the
      query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have
      seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware.
      
      The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line
      was added in commit 817c21ad "Get kernel command line accross OPAL
      takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be
      removed.

      Revert "offb: Add palette hack for little endian" · 68986c9f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      This reverts commit e1edf18b.
      
      This patch was a misguided attempt at fixing offb for LE ppc64
      kernels on BE qemu but is just wrong ... it breaks real LE/LE
      setups, LE with real HW, and existing mixed endian systems
      that did the fight thing with the appropriate device-tree
      property. Bad reviewing on my part, sorry.
      
      The right fix is to either make qemu change its endian when
      the guest changes endian (working on that) or to use the
      existing foreign endian support.

      net: sctp: fix permissions for rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs · b58537a1
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      Commit 3fd091e7 ("[SCTP]: Remove multiple levels of msecs
      to jiffies conversions.") has silently changed permissions for
      rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs from 0644 to 0444. The purpose of
      this was to discourage users from tweaking rto_alpha and
      rto_beta knobs in production environments since they are key
      to correctly compute rtt/srtt.
      
      RFC4960 under section 6.3.1. RTO Calculation says regarding
      rto_alpha and rto_beta under rule C3 and C4:
      
        [...]
        C3)  When a new RTT measurement R' is made, set
      
             RTTVAR <- (1 - RTO.Beta) * RTTVAR + RTO.Beta * |SRTT - R'|
      
             and
      
             SRTT <- (1 - RTO.Alpha) * SRTT + RTO.Alpha * R'
      
             Note: The value of SRTT used in the update to RTTVAR
             is its value before updating SRTT itself using the
             second assignment. After the computation, update
             RTO <- SRTT + 4 * RTTVAR.
      
        C4)  When data is in flight and when allowed by rule C5
             below, a new RTT measurement MUST be made each round
             trip. Furthermore, new RTT measurements SHOULD be
             made no more than once per round trip for a given
             destination transport address. There are two reasons
             for this recommendation: First, it appears that
             measuring more frequently often does not in practice
             yield any significant benefit [ALLMAN99]; second,
             if measurements are made more often, then the values
             of RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta in rule C3 above should be
             adjusted so that SRTT and RTTVAR still adjust to
             changes at roughly the same rate (in terms of how many
             round trips it takes them to reflect new values) as
             they would if making only one measurement per
             round-trip and using RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta as given
             in rule C3. However, the exact nature of these
             adjustments remains a research issue.
        [...]
      
      While it is discouraged to adjust rto_alpha and rto_beta
      and not further specified how to adjust them, the RFC also
      doesn't explicitly forbid it, but rather gives a RECOMMENDED
      default value (rto_alpha=3, rto_beta=2). We have a couple
      of users relying on the old permissions before they got
      changed. That said, if someone really has the urge to adjust
      them, we could allow it with a warning in the log.

      net: add skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation · e5eb4e30
      Tom Herbert authored
      This function is used by UDP encapsulation protocols in RX when
      crossing encapsulation boundary. If ip_summed is set to
      CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY and encapsulation is not set, change to
      CHECKSUM_NONE since the checksum has not been validated within the
      encapsulation. Clears csum_valid by the same rationale.

      udp: call __skb_checksum_complete when doing full checksum · bbdff225
      Tom Herbert authored
      In __udp_lib_checksum_complete check if checksum is being done over all
      the data (len is equal to skb->len) and if it is call
      __skb_checksum_complete instead of __skb_checksum_complete_head. This
      allows checksum to be saved in checksum complete.

      net: Fix save software checksum complete · 46fb51eb
      Tom Herbert authored
      Geert reported issues regarding checksum complete and UDP.
      The logic introduced in commit 7e3cead5
      ("net: Save software checksum complete") is not correct.
      
      This patch:
      1) Restores code in __skb_checksum_complete_header except for setting
         CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. This function may be calculating checksum on
         something less than skb->len.
      2) Adds saving checksum to __skb_checksum_complete. The full packet
         checksum 0..skb->len is calculated without adding in pseudo header.
         This value is saved in skb->csum and then the pseudo header is added
         to that to derive the checksum for validation.
      3) In both __skb_checksum_complete_header and __skb_checksum_complete,
         set skb->csum_valid to whether checksum of zero was computed. This
         allows skb_csum_unnecessary to return true without changing to
         CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY which was done previously.
      4) Copy new csum related bits in __copy_skb_header.

      net: Fix GSO constants to match NETIF flags · 4b28252c
      Tom Herbert authored
      Joseph Gasparakis reported that VXLAN GSO offload stopped working with
      i40e device after recent UDP changes. The problem is that the
      SKB_GSO_* bits are out of sync with the corresponding NETIF flags. This
      patch fixes that. Also, we add BUILD_BUG_ONs in net_gso_ok for several
      GSO constants that were missing to avoid the problem in the future.

      fix __swap_writepage() compile failure on old gcc versions · 05064084

       "Commit 62a8067a ("bio_vec-backed iov_iter") introduced an unnamed

         union as u in order to fix build failure"
      
      Let's do this instead: there is only one place in the entire tree that
      steps into this breakage.  Anon structs and unions work in older gcc
      versions; as the matter of fact, we have those in the tree - see e.g.
      struct ieee80211_tx_info in include/net/mac80211.h
      
      What doesn't work is handling their initializers:
      
      struct {
      	int a;
      	union {
      		int b;
      		char c;
      	};
      } x[2] = {{.a = 1, .c = 'a'}, {.a = 0, .b = 1}};
      
      is the obvious syntax for initializer, perfectly fine for C11 and
      handled correctly by gcc-4.7 or later.
      
      Earlier versions, though, break on it - declaration is fine and so's
      access to fields (i.e.  x[0].c = 'a'; would produce the right code), but
      members of the anon structs and unions are not inserted into the right
      namespace.  Tellingly, those older versions will not barf on struct {int
      a; struct {int a;};}; - looks like they just have it hacked up somewhere
      around the handling of .  and -> instead of doing the right thing.
      
      The easiest way to deal with that crap is to turn initialization of
      those fields (in the only place where we have such initializer of
      iov_iter) into plain assignment.
