      powerpc: use machine_subsys_initcall() for opal_hmi_handler_init() · c1c8a92f
      Li Zhong authored
      As opal_message_init() uses machine_early_initcall(powernv, ), and
      opal_hmi_handler_init() depends on that early initcall, so it also needs
      use machine_* to check the machine_id.

      powerpc/perf: Fix ABIv2 kernel backtraces · 85101af1
      Anton Blanchard authored
      ABIv2 kernels are failing to backtrace through the kernel. An example:
      
      39.30%  readseek2_proce  [kernel.kallsyms]    [k] find_get_entry
                  |
                  --- find_get_entry
                     __GI___libc_read
      
      The problem is in valid_next_sp() where we check that the new stack
      pointer is at least STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD below the previous one.
      
      ABIv1 has a minimum stack frame size of 112 bytes consisting of 48 bytes
      and 64 bytes of parameter save area. ABIv2 changes that to 32 bytes
      with no paramter save area.
      
      STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is in theory the minimum stack frame size,
      but we over 240 uses of it, some of which assume that it includes
      space for the parameter area.
      
      We need to work through all our stack defines and rationalise them
      but let's fix perf now by creating STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and using
      in valid_next_sp(). This fixes the issue:
      
      30.64%  readseek2_proce  [kernel.kallsyms]    [k] find_get_entry
                  |
                  --- find_get_entry
                     pagecache_get_page
                     generic_file_read_iter
                     new_sync_read
                     vfs_read
                     sys_read
                     syscall_exit
                     __GI___libc_read

      powerpc/pseries: Fix endian issues in memory hotplug · c9ac408b
      Thomas Falcon authored
      Values acquired from Open Firmware are in 32-bit big endian format
      and need to be handled on little endian architectures.  This patch
      ensures values are in cpu endian when hotplugging memory.

       "The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues.
      
        The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook
        on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads
        and writes IO to the same file.  The fix for that exposed other issues
        with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing
        due to dirty buffers beyond EOF.
      
        Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to
        racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted
        around.  The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that
        prevent the problem from occuring.  A more robust fix for 3.18 that
        addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by
        Brian.
      
        Summary of fixes:
         - a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption
         - the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix
         - collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues"

      timekeeping: Update timekeeper before updating vsyscall and pvclock · 9bf2419f
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the
      seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the
      shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's
      sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields
      is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an
      operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow.
      
      The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and
      pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none
      of the invoked update functions used base_mono.
      
      commit cbcf2dd3 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread()
      nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so
      the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction.
      
      Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.
