powerpc/kdump: Split KEXEC_CORE and CRASH_DUMP dependency Remove CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE was used at places where CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP or CONFIG_CRASH_RESERVE was appropriate. Replace with appropriate #ifdefs to support CONFIG_KEXEC and !CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP configuration option. Also, make CONFIG_FA_DUMP dependent on CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP to avoid unmet dependencies for FA_DUMP with !CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE configuration option.

crash: remove dependency of FA_DUMP on CRASH_DUMP In kdump kernel, /proc/vmcore is an elf file mapping the crashed kernel's old memory content. Its elf header is constructed in 1st kernel and passed to kdump kernel via elfcorehdr_addr. Config CRASH_DUMP enables the code of 1st kernel's old memory accessing in different architectures. Currently, config FA_DUMP has dependency on CRASH_DUMP because fadump needs access global variable 'elfcorehdr_addr' to judge if it's in kdump kernel within function is_kdump_kernel(). In the current kernel/crash_dump.c, variable 'elfcorehdr_addr' is defined, and function setup_elfcorehdr() used to parse kernel parameter to fetch the passed value of elfcorehdr_addr. Only for accessing elfcorehdr_addr, FA_DUMP really doesn't have to depends on CRASH_DUMP. To remove the dependency of FA_DUMP on CRASH_DUMP to avoid confusion, rename kernel/crash_dump.c to kernel/elfcorehdr.c, and build it when CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO is ebabled. With this, FA_DUMP doesn't need to depend on CRASH_DUMP.

kexec: split crashkernel reservation code out from crash_core.c Patch series "Split crash out from kexec and clean up related config items", v3. Motivation: ============= Previously, LKP reported a building error. When investigating, it can't be resolved reasonablly with the present messy kdump config items. https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202312182200.Ka7MzifQ-lkp@intel.com/ The kdump (crash dumping) related config items could causes confusions: Firstly, CRASH_CORE enables codes including - crashkernel reservation; - elfcorehdr updating; - vmcoreinfo exporting; - crash hotplug handling; Now fadump of powerpc, kcore dynamic debugging and kdump all selects CRASH_CORE, while fadump - fadump needs crashkernel parsing, vmcoreinfo exporting, and accessing global variable 'elfcorehdr_addr'; - kcore only needs vmcoreinfo exporting; - kdump needs all of the current kernel/crash_core.c. So only enabling PROC_CORE or FA_DUMP will enable CRASH_CORE, this mislead people that we enable crash dumping, actual it's not. Secondly, It's not reasonable to allow KEXEC_CORE select CRASH_CORE. Because KEXEC_CORE enables codes which allocate control pages, copy kexec/kdump segments, and prepare for switching. These codes are shared by both kexec reboot and kdump. We could want kexec reboot, but disable kdump. In that case, CRASH_CORE should not be selected. -------------------- CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y --------------------- Thirdly, It's not reasonable to allow CRASH_DUMP select KEXEC_CORE. That could make KEXEC_CORE, CRASH_DUMP are enabled independently from KEXEC or KEXEC_FILE. However, w/o KEXEC or KEXEC_FILE, the KEXEC_CORE code built in doesn't make any sense because no kernel loading or switching will happen to utilize the KEXEC_CORE code. --------------------- CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y --------------------- In this case, what is worse, on arch sh and arm, KEXEC relies on MMU, while CRASH_DUMP can still be enabled when !MMU, then compiling error is seen as the lkp test robot reported in above link. ------arch/sh/Kconfig------ config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC def_bool MMU config ARCH_SUPPORTS_CRASH_DUMP def_bool BROKEN_ON_SMP --------------------------- Changes: =========== 1, split out crash_reserve.c from crash_core.c; 2, split out vmcore_infoc. from crash_core.c; 3, move crash related codes in kexec_core.c into crash_core.c; 4, remove dependency of FA_DUMP on CRASH_DUMP; 5, clean up kdump related config items; 6, wrap up crash codes in crash related ifdefs on all 8 arch-es which support crash dumping, except of ppc; Achievement: =========== With above changes, I can rearrange the config item logic as below (the right item depends on or is selected by the left item): PROC_KCORE -----------> VMCORE_INFO |----------> VMCORE_INFO FA_DUMP----| |----------> CRASH_RESERVE ---->VMCORE_INFO / |---->CRASH_RESERVE KEXEC --| /| |--> KEXEC_CORE--> CRASH_DUMP-->/-|---->PROC_VMCORE KEXEC_FILE --| \ | \---->CRASH_HOTPLUG KEXEC --| |--> KEXEC_CORE (for kexec reboot only) KEXEC_FILE --| Test ======== On all 8 architectures, including x86_64, arm64, s390x, sh, arm, mips, riscv, loongarch, I did below three cases of config item setting and building all passed. Take configs on x86_64 as exampmle here: (1) Both CONFIG_KEXEC and KEXEC_FILE is unset, then all kexec/kdump items are unset automatically: # Kexec and crash features # CONFIG_KEXEC is not set # CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is not set # end of Kexec and crash features (2) set CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE and 'make olddefconfig': --------------- # Kexec and crash features CONFIG_CRASH_RESERVE=y CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO=y CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_CRASH_MAX_MEMORY_RANGES=8192 # end of Kexec and crash features --------------- (3) unset CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP in case 2 and execute 'make olddefconfig': ------------------------ # Kexec and crash features CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y # end of Kexec and crash features ------------------------ Note: For ppc, it needs investigation to make clear how to split out crash code in arch folder. Hope Hari and Pingfan can help have a look, see if it's doable. Now, I make it either have both kexec and crash enabled, or disable both of them altogether. This patch (of 14): Both kdump and fa_dump of ppc rely on crashkernel reservation. Move the relevant codes into separate files: crash_reserve.c, include/linux/crash_reserve.h. And also add config item CRASH_RESERVE to control its enabling of the codes. And update config items which has relationship with crashkernel reservation. And also change ifdeffery from CONFIG_CRASH_CORE to CONFIG_CRASH_RESERVE when those scopes are only crashkernel reservation related. And also rename arch/XXX/include/asm/{crash_core.h => crash_reserve.h} on arm64, x86 and risc-v because those architectures' crash_core.h is only related to crashkernel reservation.

powerpc/64s: Increase default stack size to 32KB There are reports of kernels crashing due to stack overflow while running OpenShift (Kubernetes). The primary contributor to the stack usage seems to be openvswitch, which is used by OVN-Kubernetes (based on OVN (Open Virtual Network)), but NFS also contributes in some stack traces. There may be some opportunities to reduce stack usage in the openvswitch code, but doing so potentially require tradeoffs vs performance, and also requires testing across architectures. Looking at stack usage across the kernel (using -fstack-usage), shows that ppc64le stack frames are on average 50-100% larger than the equivalent function built for x86-64. Which is not surprising given the minimum stack frame size is 32 bytes on ppc64le vs 16 bytes on x86-64. So increase the default stack size to 32KB for the modern 64-bit Book3S platforms, ie. pseries (virtualised) and powernv (bare metal). That leaves the older systems like G5s, and the AmigaOne (pasemi) with a 16KB stack which should be sufficient on those machines.

kexec: fix KEXEC_FILE dependencies The cleanup for the CONFIG_KEXEC Kconfig logic accidentally changed the 'depends on CRYPTO=y' dependency to a plain 'depends on CRYPTO', which causes a link failure when all the crypto support is in a loadable module and kexec_file support is built-in: x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `__x64_sys_kexec_file_load': (.text+0x32e30a): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_shash' x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e58e): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_update' x86_64-linux-ld: (.text+0x32e6ee): undefined reference to `crypto_shash_final' Both s390 and x86 have this problem, while ppc64 and riscv have the correct dependency already. On riscv, the dependency is only used for the purgatory, not for the kexec_file code itself, which may be a bit surprising as it means that with CONFIG_CRYPTO=m, it is possible to enable KEXEC_FILE but then the purgatory code is silently left out. Move this into the common Kconfig.kexec file in a way that is correct everywhere, using the dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256=y only when the purgatory code is available. This requires reversing the dependency between ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_PURGATORY and KEXEC_FILE, but the effect remains the same, other than making riscv behave like the other ones. On s390, there is an additional dependency on CRYPTO_SHA256_S390, which should technically not be required but gives better performance. Remove this dependency here, noting that it was not present in the initial Kconfig code but was brought in without an explanation in commit 71406883fd357 ("s390/kexec_file: Add kexec_file_load system call").

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for -fpatchable-function-entry GCC v13.1 updated support for -fpatchable-function-entry on ppc64le to emit nops after the local entry point, rather than before it. This allows us to use this in the kernel for ftrace purposes. A new script is added under arch/powerpc/tools/ to help detect if nops are emitted after the function local entry point, or before the global entry point. With -fpatchable-function-entry, we no longer have the profiling instructions generated at function entry, so we only need to validate the presence of two nops at the ftrace location in ftrace_init_nop(). We patch the preceding instruction with 'mflr r0' to match the -mprofile-kernel ABI for subsequent ftrace use. This changes the profiling instructions used on ppc32. The default -pg option emits an additional 'stw' instruction after 'mflr r0' and before the branch to _mcount 'bl _mcount'. This is very similar to the original -mprofile-kernel implementation on ppc64le, where an additional 'std' instruction was used to save LR to its save location in the caller's stackframe. Subsequently, this additional store was removed in later compiler versions for performance reasons. The same reasons apply for ppc32 so we only patch in a 'mflr r0'.

powerpc/idle: Add support for nohlt This patch enables config option GENERIC_IDLE_POLL_SETUP for arch powerpc. This adds support for kernel param 'nohlt'. Powerpc kernel also supports another kernel boot-time param called 'powersave' which can also be used to disable all cpu idle-states and forces CPU to an idle-loop similar to what cpu_idle_poll() does. This patch however makes powerpc kernel-parameters better aligned to the generic boot-time parameters.

powerpc/book3s64/memhotplug: enable memmap on memory for radix Radix vmemmap mapping can map things correctly at the PMD level or PTE level based on different device boundary checks. Hence we skip the restrictions w.r.t vmemmap size to be multiple of PMD_SIZE. This also makes the feature widely useful because to use PMD_SIZE vmemmap area we require a memory block size of 2GiB We can also use MHP_RESERVE_PAGES_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY to that the feature can work with a memory block size of 256MB. Using altmap.reserve feature to align things correctly at pageblock granularity. We can end up losing some pages in memory with this. For ex: with a 256MiB memory block size, we require 4 pages to map vmemmap pages, In order to align things correctly we end up adding a reserve of 28 pages. ie, for every 4096 pages 28 pages get reserved.

powerpc/mm: Reinstate ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER ranges Commit 1e8fed873e74 ("powerpc: drop ranges for definition of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER") removed the limits on the possible values for ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER. However removing the ranges entirely causes some common work flows to break. For example building a defconfig (which uses 64K pages), changing the page size to 4K, and rebuilding used to work, because ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER would be clamped to 12 by the ranges. With the ranges removed it creates a kernel that builds but crashes at boot: kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:470! Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] ...

So take that into account and limit the maximums to 10 which is the default max, except for the 4K case which uses 12.

powerpc/64: vmlinux support building with PCREL addresing PC-Relative or PCREL addressing is an extension to the ELF ABI which uses Power ISA v3.1 PC-relative instructions to calculate addresses, rather than the traditional TOC scheme. Add an option to build vmlinux using pcrel addressing. Modules continue to use TOC addressing. - TOC address helpers and r2 are poisoned with -1 when running vmlinux. r2 could be used for something useful once things are ironed out. - Assembly must call C functions with @notoc annotation, or the linker complains aobut a missing nop after the call. This is done with the CFUNC macro introduced earlier. - Boot: with the exception of prom_init, the execution branches to the kernel virtual address early in boot, before any addresses are generated, which ensures 34-bit pcrel addressing does not miss the high PAGE_OFFSET bits. TOC relative addressing has a similar requirement. prom_init does not go to the virtual address and its addresses should not carry over to the post-prom kernel. - Ftrace trampolines are converted from TOC addressing to pcrel addressing, including module ftrace trampolines that currently use the kernel TOC to find ftrace target functions. - BPF function prologue and function calling generation are converted from TOC to pcrel. - copypage_64.S has an interesting problem, prefixed instructions have alignment restrictions so the linker can add padding, which makes the assembler treat the difference between two local labels as non-constant even if alignment is arranged so padding is not required. This may need toolchain help to solve nicely, for now move the prefix instruction out of the alternate patch section to work around it. This reduces kernel text size by about 6%.

powerpc/64: Always build with 128-bit long double The amdgpu driver builds some of its code with hard-float enabled, whereas the rest of the kernel is built with soft-float. When building with 64-bit long double, if soft-float and hard-float objects are linked together, the build fails due to incompatible ABI tags. In the past there have been build errors in the amdgpu driver caused by this, some of those were due to bad intermingling of soft & hard-float code, but those issues have now all been fixed since commit 58ddbecb14c7 ("drm/amd/display: move remaining FPU code to dml folder"). However it's still possible for soft & hard-float objects to end up linked together, if the amdgpu driver is built-in to the kernel along with the test_emulate_step.c code, which uses soft-float. That happens in an allyesconfig build. Currently those build errors are avoided because the amdgpu driver is gated on 128-bit long double being enabled. But that's not a detail the amdgpu driver should need to be aware of, and if another driver starts using hard-float the same problem would occur. All versions of the 64-bit ABI specify that long-double is 128-bits. However some compilers, notably the kernel.org ones, are built to use 64-bit long double by default. Apart from this issue of soft vs hard-float, the kernel doesn't care what size long double is. In particular the kernel using 128-bit long double doesn't impact userspace's ability to use 64-bit long double, as musl does. So always build the 64-bit kernel with 128-bit long double. That should avoid any build errors due to the incompatible ABI tags. Excluding the code that uses soft/hard-float, the vmlinux is identical with/without the flag. It does mean any code which is incorrectly intermingling soft & hard-float code will build without error, so those bugs will need to be caught by testing rather than at build time. For more background see: - commit d11219ad53dc ("amdgpu: disable powerpc support for the newer display engine") - commit c653c591789b ("drm/amdgpu: Re-enable DCN for 64-bit powerpc") - https://lore.kernel.org/r/dab9cbd8-2626-4b99-8098-31fe76397d2d@app.fastmail.com Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Reviewed-by: Segher Boessenkool <segher@kernel.crashing.org> Link: https://msgid.link/20230404102847.3303623-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au

powerpc/64s: enable MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN On a 16-socket 192-core POWER8 system, the context_switch1_threads benchmark from will-it-scale (see earlier changelog), upstream can achieve a rate of about 1 million context switches per second, due to contention on the mm refcount. 64s meets the prerequisites for CONFIG_MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN, so enable the option. This increases the above benchmark to 118 million context switches per second. This generates 314 additional IPI interrupts on a 144 CPU system doing a kernel compile, which is in the noise in terms of kernel cycles.

powerpc: Allow CONFIG_PPC64_BIG_ENDIAN_ELF_ABI_V2 with ld.lld 15+ Commit 5017b4594672 ("powerpc/64: Option to build big-endian with ELFv2 ABI") restricted the ELFv2 ABI configuration such that it can only be selected when linking with ld.bfd, due to lack of testing with LLVM. ld.lld can link ELFv2 kernels without any issues; in fact, it is the only ABI that ld.lld supports, as ELFv1 is not supported in ld.lld. As this has not seen a ton of real world testing yet, be conservative and only allow this option to be selected with the latest stable release of LLVM (15.x) and newer. While in the area, remove 'default n', as it is unnecessary to specify it explicitly since all boolean/tristate configuration symbols default to n.

In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390. The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT: * ARC * C-SKY * Hexagon * Nios II * OpenRISC * s390 * User-Mode Linux * Xtensa All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally.

powerpc: Avoid dead code/data elimination when using recordmcount Although powerpc now has objtool mcount support, it's not enabled in all configurations due to dependencies. On those configurations, with some linkers (binutils 2.37 at least), it's still possible to hit the dreaded "recordmcount bug", eg. errors such as: CC kernel/kexec_file.o Cannot find symbol for section 10: .text.unlikely. kernel/kexec_file.o: failed make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:287 : kernel/kexec_file.o] Error 1 Those errors are much more prevalent when building with CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, because it places every function in a separate section. CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is marked experimental and is not enabled in any powerpc defconfigs or by major distros. Although it does have at least some users on 32-bit where kernel size tends to be more important. Avoid the build errors by blocking CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION when the build is using recordmcount, rather than objtool. In practice that means for 64-bit big endian builds, or 64-bit clang builds - both because they lack CONFIG_MPROFILE_KERNEL. On 32-bit objtool is always used, so CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is still available there.

powerpc/pci: Add option for using pci_to_OF_bus_map The "pci-OF-bus-map" property was declared deprecated in 2006 [1] and to the best of everyone's knowledge is not used by anything anymore [2]. The creation of the property was disabled on powermac (arch/powerpc) in 2005 by commit 35499c0195e4 ("powerpc: Merge in 64-bit powermac support."). But it is still created by default on CHRP. On powermac the actual map (pci_to_OF_bus_map) is still used by default, even though the device tree property is not created. Add an option to enable/disable use of the pci_to_OF_bus_map, and creation of the property (on CHRP). Disabling the option allows enabling CONFIG_PPC_PCI_BUS_NUM_DOMAIN_DEPENDENT which allows "normal" bus numbering and more than 256 buses, like 64-bit and other architectures. Mark the new option as default n, the intention is that the option and the code will be removed in a future release.

powerpc: Don't select ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR Commit 41b7a347bf14 ("powerpc: Book3S 64-bit outline-only KASAN support") added a select of ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR, because it also added some uses of noinstr. However noinstr is always defined, regardless of ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR, so there's no need to select it just for that. As PeterZ says [1]: Note that by selecting ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR you effectively state to abide by its rules. As of now the powerpc code does not abide by those rules, and trips some new warnings added by Peter in linux-next. So until the code can be fixed to avoid those warnings, disable ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR. Note that ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR is also used to gate building KCOV and parts of KCSAN. However none of the noinstr annotations in powerpc were added for KCOV or KCSAN, instead instrumentation is blocked at the file level using KCOV_INSTRUMENT_foo.o := n.

This reduces the speculation influence of registers on kernel internals. The option will be consumed by 64-bit systems that feature speculation and wish to implement this mitigation. This patch only introduces the Kconfig option, no actual mitigations. The primary overhead of this mitigation lies in an increased number of registers that must be saved and restored by interrupt handlers on Book3S systems.

powerpc/32: Select ARCH_SPLIT_ARG64 On 32-bit kernels, 64-bit syscall arguments are split into two registers. For that to work with syscall wrappers, the prototype of the syscall must have the argument split so that the wrapper macro properly unpacks the arguments from pt_regs. The fanotify_mark() syscall is one such syscall, which already has a split prototype, guarded behind ARCH_SPLIT_ARG64. So select ARCH_SPLIT_ARG64 to get that prototype and fix fanotify_mark() on 32-bit kernels with syscall wrappers. Note also that fanotify_mark() is the only usage of ARCH_SPLIT_ARG64.

powerpc: Provide syscall wrapper Implement syscall wrapper as per s390, x86, arm64. When enabled cause handlers to accept parameters from a stack frame rather than from user scratch register state. This allows for user registers to be safely cleared in order to reduce caller influence on speculation within syscall routine. The wrapper is a macro that emits syscall handler symbols that call into the target handler, obtaining its parameters from a struct pt_regs on the stack. As registers are already saved to the stack prior to calling system_call_exception, it appears that this function is executed more efficiently with the new stack-pointer convention than with parameters passed by registers, avoiding the allocation of a stack frame for this method. On a 32-bit system, we see >20% performance increases on the null_syscall microbenchmark, and on a Power 8 the performance gains amortise the cost of clearing and restoring registers which is implemented at the end of this series, seeing final result of ~5.6% performance improvement on null_syscall. Syscalls are wrapped in this fashion on all platforms except for the Cell processor as this commit does not provide SPU support. This can be quickly fixed in a successive patch, but requires spu_sys_callback to allocate a pt_regs structure to satisfy the wrapped calling convention.

powerpc: Always select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS Currently powerpc selects HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS in all cases but one. The exception is if the kernel is being built little endian and explicitly targeted for Power7. The combination of Power7 and little endian was never commercially supported, or widely used. It was only ever possible on bare metal machines, using unofficial firmware, or in qemu guests hosted on those machines. The bare metal firmware support for Power7 was removed in 2019, see skiboot commit 16b7ae64 ("Remove POWER7 and POWER7+ support"). Little endian kernel builds were switched to target Power8 or later in 2018, in commit a73657ea19ae ("powerpc/64: Add GENERIC_CPU support for little endian"). Since then it's only been possible to boot a Power7/LE kernel by explicitly building for Power7. So drop the exception and always select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. If anyone does still have a Power7/LE machine it should hopefully continue to boot, just with some performance penality, and if not they can report a bug.

powerpc: add support for syscall stack randomization Add support for adding a random offset to the stack while handling syscalls. This patch uses mftb() instead of get_random_int() for better performance. In order to avoid unconditional stack canaries on syscall entry (due to the use of alloca()), also disable stack protector to avoid triggering needless checks and slowing down the entry path. As there is no general way to control stack protector coverage with a function attribute, this must be disabled at the compilation unit level.

powerpc/pci: Add config option for using all 256 PCI buses By default on PPC32 PCI bus numbers are unique across all PCI domains. So a system could have only 256 PCI buses independently of available PCI domains. This is due to filling DT property pci-OF-bus-map which does not support a multi-domain setup. On all powerpc platforms except chrp and powermac there is no DT property pci-OF-bus-map anymore and therefore it is possible on non-chrp/powermac platforms to avoid this limitation of maximum number of 256 PCI buses in a system even on multi-domain setup. But avoiding this limitation would mean that all PCI and PCIe devices would be present on completely different BDF addresses as every PCI domain starts numbering PCI bueses from zero (instead of the last bus number of previous enumerated PCI domain). Such change could break existing software which expects fixed PCI bus numbers. So add a new config option CONFIG_PPC_PCI_BUS_NUM_DOMAIN_DEPENDENT which enables this change. By default it is disabled. It causes the initial value of hose->first_busno to be zero.

arch/*/: remove CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt() have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been removed now. This means the definitions on most architectures, and the CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed. The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing. On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h. alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific code. I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0 driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the end I just decided to remove the file completely.

random: remove CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM When RDRAND was introduced, there was much discussion on whether it should be trusted and how the kernel should handle that. Initially, two mechanisms cropped up, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, a compile time switch, and "nordrand", a boot-time switch. Later the thinking evolved. With a properly designed RNG, using RDRAND values alone won't harm anything, even if the outputs are malicious. Rather, the issue is whether those values are being *trusted* to be good or not. And so a new set of options were introduced as the real ones that people use -- CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and "random.trust_cpu". With these options, RDRAND is used, but it's not always credited. So in the worst case, it does nothing, and in the best case, maybe it helps. Along the way, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM's meaning got sort of pulled into the center and became something certain platforms force-select. The old options don't really help with much, and it's a bit odd to have special handling for these instructions when the kernel can deal fine with the existence or untrusted existence or broken existence or non-existence of that CPU capability. Simplify the situation by removing CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM and using the ordinary asm-generic fallback pattern instead, keeping the two options that are actually used. For now it leaves "nordrand" for now, as the removal of that will take a different route.

drm/amdgpu: Re-enable DCN for 64-bit powerpc Commit d11219ad53dc ("amdgpu: disable powerpc support for the newer display engine") disabled the DCN driver for all of powerpc due to unresolved build failures with some compilers. Further digging shows that the build failures only occur with compilers that default to 64-bit long double. Both the ppc64 and ppc64le ABIs define long double to be 128-bits, but there are compilers in the wild that default to 64-bits. The compilers provided by the major distros (Fedora, Ubuntu) default to 128-bits and are not affected by the build failure. There is a compiler flag to force 128-bit long double, which may be the correct long term fix, but as an interim fix only allow building the DCN driver if long double is 128-bits by default. The bisection in commit d11219ad53dc must have gone off the rails at some point, the build failure occurs all the way back to the original commit that enabled DCN support on powerpc, at least with some toolchains.

powerpc/kasan: Force thread size increase with KASAN KASAN causes increased stack usage, which can lead to stack overflows. The logic in Kconfig to suggest a larger default doesn't work if a user has CONFIG_EXPERT enabled and has an existing .config with a smaller value. Follow the lead of x86 and arm64, and force the thread size to be increased when KASAN is enabled. That also has the effect of enlarging the stack for 64-bit KASAN builds, which is also desirable.

powerpc: Don't select HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK The HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK option tells generic code that irq_exit() is called while still running on the hard irq stack (hardirq_ctx[] in the powerpc code). Selecting the option means the generic code will *not* switch to the softirq stack before running softirqs, because the code is already running on the (mostly empty) hard irq stack. But since commit 1b1b6a6f4cc0 ("powerpc: handle irq_enter/irq_exit in interrupt handler wrappers"), irq_exit() is now called on the regular task stack, not the hard irq stack. That's because previously irq_exit() was called in __do_irq() which is run on the hard irq stack, but now it is called in interrupt_async_exit_prepare() which is called from do_irq() constructed by the wrapper macro, which is after the switch back to the task stack. So drop HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK from the Kconfig. This will mean an extra stack switch when processing some interrupts, but should significantly reduce the likelihood of stack overflow. It also means the softirq stack will be used for running softirqs from other interrupts that don't use the hard irq stack, eg. timer interrupts.

powerpc: Book3S 64-bit outline-only KASAN support Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode. - Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.) - Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in vmalloc space. - KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot, set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and vmemmap accesses as valid. - Document KASAN in powerpc docs. Background ---------- KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right: - It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode. - Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset. - Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot, including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to determine MMU features. [ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.] - Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations off after boot. - Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with translations on or off. One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation. Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in the future. [paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17. Note that a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT translation because not all the entry points to the generic KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().] Originally-by: Balbir Singh <bsingharora@gmail.com> # ppc64 out-of-line radix version Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> [mpe: Update copyright year and comment formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/YoTE69OQwiG7z+Gu@cleo

kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_* as a placeholder. Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset to the reference of CRC. It is time to get rid of this complexity. Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs, it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules. Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh. Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before, *.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal. No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not. CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed. Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in objects, but this step is unneeded too.

powerpc: Select ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC on book3s/32 and 8xx book3s/32 and 8xx have a separate area for allocating modules, defined by MODULES_VADDR / MODULES_END. On book3s/32, it is not possible to protect against execution on a page basis. A full 256M segment is either Exec or NoExec. The module area is in an Exec segment while vmalloc area is in a NoExec segment. In order to protect module data against execution, select ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC. For the 8xx (and possibly other 32 bits platform in the future), there is no such constraint on Exec/NoExec protection, however there is a critical distance between kernel functions and callers that needs to remain below 32Mbytes in order to avoid costly trampolines. By allocating data outside of module area, we increase the chance for module text to remain within acceptable distance from kernel core text. So select ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC for 8xx as well.

powerpc/32s: Enable STRICT_MODULE_RWX for the 603 core The book3s/32 MMU doesn't support per page execution protection and doesn't support RO protection for kernel pages. However, on the 603 which implements software loaded TLBs, execution protection is honored by the TLB Miss handler which doesn't load Instruction TLB for non executable pages. And RO protection is honored by clearing the C bit for RO pages, leading to DSI. So on the 603, STRICT_MODULE_RWX is possible without much effort.

usercopy: Check valid lifetime via stack depth One of the things that CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY sanity-checks is whether an object that is about to be copied to/from userspace is overlapping the stack at all. If it is, it performs a number of inexpensive bounds checks. One of the finer-grained checks is whether an object crosses stack frames within the stack region. Doing this on x86 with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER was cheap/easy. Doing it with ORC was deemed too heavy, and was left out (a while ago), leaving the courser whole-stack check. The LKDTM tests USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_TO and USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_FROM try to exercise these cross-frame cases to validate the defense is working. They have been failing ever since ORC was added (which was expected). While Muhammad was investigating various LKDTM failures[1], he asked me for additional details on them, and I realized that when exact stack frame boundary checking is not available (i.e. everything except x86 with FRAME_POINTER), it could check if a stack object is at least "current depth valid", in the sense that any object within the stack region but not between start-of-stack and current_stack_pointer should be considered unavailable (i.e. its lifetime is from a call no longer present on the stack). Introduce ARCH_HAS_CURRENT_STACK_POINTER to track which architectures have actually implemented the common global register alias. Additionally report usercopy bounds checking failures with an offset from current_stack_pointer, which may assist with diagnosing failures. The LKDTM USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_TO and USERCOPY_STACK_FRAME_FROM tests (once slightly adjusted in a separate patch) pass again with this fixed.

powerpc: Activate CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX by default CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX should be set by default on every architectures (See https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/4) On PPC32 we have to find a compromise between performance and/or memory wasting and selection of strict_kernel_rwx, because it implies either smaller memory chunks or larger alignment between RO memory and RW memory. For instance the 8xx maps memory with 8M pages. So either the limit between RO and RW must be 8M aligned or it falls back or 512k pages which implies more pressure on the TLB. book3s/32 maps memory with BATs as much as possible. BATS can have any power-of-two size between 128k and 256M but we have only 4 to 8 BATs so the alignment must be good enough to allow efficient use of the BATs and avoid falling back on standard page mapping which would kill performance. So let's go one step forward and make it the default but still allow users to unset it when wanted.

powerpc/32: Add support for out-of-line static calls Add support for out-of-line static calls on PPC32. This change improve performance of calls to global function pointers by using direct calls instead of indirect calls. The trampoline is initialy populated with a 'blr' or branch to target, followed by an unreachable long jump sequence. In order to cater with parallele execution, the trampoline needs to be updated in a way that ensures it remains consistent at all time. This means we can't use the traditional lis/addi to load r12 with the target address, otherwise there would be a window during which the first instruction contains the upper part of the new target address while the second instruction still contains the lower part of the old target address. To avoid that the target address is stored just after the 'bctr' and loaded from there with a single instruction. Then, depending on the target distance, arch_static_call_transform() will either replace the first instruction by a direct 'bl <target>' or 'nop' in order to have the trampoline fall through the long jump sequence. For the special case of __static_call_return0(), to avoid the risk of a far branch, a version of it is inlined at the end of the trampoline. Performancewise the long jump sequence is probably not better than the indirect calls set by GCC when we don't use static calls, but such calls are unlikely to be required on powerpc32: With most configurations the kernel size is far below 32 Mbytes so only modules may happen to be too far. And even modules are likely to be close enough as they are allocated below the kernel core and as close as possible of the kernel text. static_call selftest is running successfully with this change. With this patch, __do_irq() has the following sequence to trace irq entries: c0004a00 <__SCT__tp_func_irq_entry>: c0004a00: 48 00 00 e0 b c0004ae0 <__traceiter_irq_entry> c0004a04: 3d 80 c0 00 lis r12,-16384 c0004a08: 81 8c 4a 1c lwz r12,18972(r12) c0004a0c: 7d 89 03 a6 mtctr r12 c0004a10: 4e 80 04 20 bctr c0004a14: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c0004a18: 4e 80 00 20 blr c0004a1c: 00 00 00 00 .long 0x0 ... c0005654 <__do_irq>: ... c0005664: 7c 7f 1b 78 mr r31,r3 ... c00056a0: 81 22 00 00 lwz r9,0(r2) c00056a4: 39 29 00 01 addi r9,r9,1 c00056a8: 91 22 00 00 stw r9,0(r2) c00056ac: 3d 20 c0 af lis r9,-16209 c00056b0: 81 29 74 cc lwz r9,29900(r9) c00056b4: 2c 09 00 00 cmpwi r9,0 c00056b8: 41 82 00 10 beq c00056c8 <__do_irq+0x74> c00056bc: 80 69 00 04 lwz r3,4(r9) c00056c0: 7f e4 fb 78 mr r4,r31 c00056c4: 4b ff f3 3d bl c0004a00 <__SCT__tp_func_irq_entry> Before this patch, __do_irq() was doing the following to trace irq entries: c0005700 <__do_irq>: ... c0005710: 7c 7e 1b 78 mr r30,r3 ... c000574c: 93 e1 00 0c stw r31,12(r1) c0005750: 81 22 00 00 lwz r9,0(r2) c0005754: 39 29 00 01 addi r9,r9,1 c0005758: 91 22 00 00 stw r9,0(r2) c000575c: 3d 20 c0 af lis r9,-16209 c0005760: 83 e9 f4 cc lwz r31,-2868(r9) c0005764: 2c 1f 00 00 cmpwi r31,0 c0005768: 41 82 00 24 beq c000578c <__do_irq+0x8c> c000576c: 81 3f 00 00 lwz r9,0(r31) c0005770: 80 7f 00 04 lwz r3,4(r31) c0005774: 7d 29 03 a6 mtctr r9 c0005778: 7f c4 f3 78 mr r4,r30 c000577c: 4e 80 04 21 bctrl c0005780: 85 3f 00 0c lwzu r9,12(r31) c0005784: 2c 09 00 00 cmpwi r9,0 c0005788: 40 82 ff e4 bne c000576c <__do_irq+0x6c> Behind the fact of now using a direct 'bl' instead of a 'load/mtctr/bctr' sequence, we can also see that we get one less register on the stack.

powerpc: Set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX To enable strict module RWX on powerpc, set: CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y You should also have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX=y set to have any real security benefit. ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set to require ARCH_HAS_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. This is due to a quirk in arch/Kconfig and arch/powerpc/Kconfig that makes STRICT_MODULE_RWX *on by default* in configurations where STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is *unavailable*. Since this doesn't make much sense, and module RWX without kernel RWX doesn't make much sense, having the same dependencies as kernel RWX works around this problem. Book3s/32 603 and 604 core processors are not able to write protect kernel pages so do not set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX for Book3s/32.

powerpc/mm: Implement set_memory() routines The set_memory_{ro/rw/nx/x}() functions are required for STRICT_MODULE_RWX, and are generally useful primitives to have. This implementation is designed to be generic across powerpc's many MMUs. It's possible that this could be optimised to be faster for specific MMUs. This implementation does not handle cases where the caller is attempting to change the mapping of the page it is executing from, or if another CPU is concurrently using the page being altered. These cases likely shouldn't happen, but a more complex implementation with MMU-specific code could safely handle them. On hash, the linear mapping is not kept in the linux pagetable, so this will not change the protection if used on that range. Currently these functions are not used on the linear map so just WARN for now. apply_to_existing_page_range() does not work on huge pages so for now disallow changing the protection of huge pages.

locking/atomic: powerpc: move to ARCH_ATOMIC We'd like all architectures to convert to ARCH_ATOMIC, as once all architectures are converted it will be possible to make significant cleanups to the atomics headers, and this will make it much easier to generically enable atomic functionality (e.g. debug logic in the instrumented wrappers). As a step towards that, this patch migrates powerpc to ARCH_ATOMIC. The arch code provides arch_{atomic,atomic64,xchg,cmpxchg}*(), and common code wraps these with optional instrumentation to provide the regular functions. While atomic_try_cmpxchg_lock() is not part of the common atomic API, it is given an `arch_` prefix for consistency.

mm/memtest: add ARCH_USE_MEMTEST early_memtest() does not get called from all architectures. Hence enabling CONFIG_MEMTEST and providing a valid memtest=[1..N] kernel command line option might not trigger the memory pattern tests as would be expected in normal circumstances. This situation is misleading. The change here prevents the above mentioned problem after introducing a new config option ARCH_USE_MEMTEST that should be subscribed on platforms that call early_memtest(), in order to enable the config CONFIG_MEMTEST. Conversely CONFIG_MEMTEST cannot be enabled on platforms where it would not be tested anyway.

Kconfig: regularize selection of CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF with mips converted to use of fs/config_binfmt_elf.c, there's no need to keep selects of that thing all over arch/* - we can simply turn into def_bool y if COMPAT && BINFMT_ELF (in fs/Kconfig.binfmt) and get rid of all selects. Several architectures got those selects wrong (e.g. you could end up with sparc64 sans BINFMT_ELF, with select violating dependencies, etc.) Randy Dunlap has spotted some of those; IMO this is simpler than his fix, but it depends upon the stuff that would need to be backported, so we might end up using his variant for -stable.

arch, mm: restore dependency of __kernel_map_pages() on DEBUG_PAGEALLOC The design of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC presumes that __kernel_map_pages() must never fail. With this assumption is wouldn't be safe to allow general usage of this function. Moreover, some architectures that implement __kernel_map_pages() have this function guarded by #ifdef DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and some refuse to map/unmap pages when page allocation debugging is disabled at runtime. As all the users of __kernel_map_pages() were converted to use debug_pagealloc_map_pages() it is safe to make it available only when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is set.

powerpc: Make NUMA depend on SMP Our Kconfig allows NUMA to be enabled without SMP, but none of our defconfigs use that combination. This means it can easily be broken inadvertently by code changes, which has happened recently. Although it's theoretically possible to have a machine with a single CPU and multiple memory nodes, I can't think of any real systems where that's the case. Even so if such a system exists, it can just run an SMP kernel anyway. So to avoid the need to add extra #ifdefs and/or build breaks, make NUMA depend on SMP.

kbuild: Hoist '--orphan-handling' into Kconfig Currently, '--orphan-handling=warn' is spread out across four different architectures in their respective Makefiles, which makes it a little unruly to deal with in case it needs to be disabled for a specific linker version (in this case, ld.lld 10.0.1). To make it easier to control this, hoist this warning into Kconfig and the main Makefile so that disabling it is simpler, as the warning will only be enabled in a couple places (main Makefile and a couple of compressed boot folders that blow away LDFLAGS_vmlinx) and making it conditional is easier due to Kconfig syntax. One small additional benefit of this is saving a call to ld-option on incremental builds because we will have already evaluated it for CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN. To keep the list of supported architectures the same, introduce CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, which an architecture can select to gain this automatically after all of the sections are specified and size asserted. A special thanks to Kees Cook for the help text on this config.

powerpc/dma: Fallback to dma_ops when persistent memory present So far we have been using huge DMA windows to map all the RAM available. The RAM is normally mapped to the VM address space contiguously, and there is always a reasonable upper limit for possible future hot plugged RAM which makes it easy to map all RAM via IOMMU. Now there is persistent memory ("ibm,pmemory" in the FDT) which (unlike normal RAM) can map anywhere in the VM space beyond the maximum RAM size and since it can be used for DMA, it requires extending the huge window up to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS which requires hypervisor support for: 1. huge TCE tables; 2. multilevel TCE tables; 3. huge IOMMU pages. Certain hypervisors cannot do either so the only option left is restricting the huge DMA window to include only RAM and fallback to the default DMA window for persistent memory. This defines arch_dma_map_direct/etc to allow generic DMA code perform additional checks on whether direct DMA is still possible. This checks if the system has persistent memory. If it does not, the DMA bypass mode is selected, i.e. * dev->bus_dma_limit = 0 * dev->dma_ops_bypass = true <- this avoid calling dma_ops for mapping. If there is such memory, this creates identity mapping only for RAM and sets the dev->bus_dma_limit to let the generic code decide whether to call into the direct DMA or the indirect DMA ops. This should not change the existing behaviour when no persistent memory as dev->dma_ops_bypass is expected to be set.

timekeeping: default GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS to enabled Almost all machines use GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, so it feels wrong to require each one to select that symbol manually. Instead, enable it whenever CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMER_TICK is disabled as a simplification. It should be possible to select both GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and LEGACY_TIMER_TICK from an architecture now and decide at runtime between the two. For the clockevents arch-support.txt file, this means that additional architectures are marked as TODO when they have at least one machine that still uses LEGACY_TIMER_TICK, rather than being marked 'ok' when at least one machine has been converted. This means that both m68k and arm (for riscpc) revert to TODO. At this point, we could just always enable CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS rather than leaving it off when not needed. I built an m68k defconfig kernel (using gcc-10.1.0) and found that this would add around 5.5KB in kernel image size: text data bss dec hex filename 3861936 1092236 196656 5150828 4e986c obj-m68k/vmlinux-no-clockevent 3866201 1093832 196184 5156217 4ead79 obj-m68k/vmlinux-clockevent On Arm (MACH_RPC), that difference appears to be twice as large, around 11KB on top of an 6MB vmlinux.

seccomp: Move config option SECCOMP to arch/Kconfig In order to make adding configurable features into seccomp easier, it's better to have the options at one single location, considering especially that the bulk of seccomp code is arch-independent. An quick look also show that many SECCOMP descriptions are outdated; they talk about /proc rather than prctl. As a result of moving the config option and keeping it default on, architectures arm, arm64, csky, riscv, sh, and xtensa did not have SECCOMP on by default prior to this and SECCOMP will be default in this change. Architectures microblaze, mips, powerpc, s390, sh, and sparc have an outdated depend on PROC_FS and this dependency is removed in this change.

powerpc/rtas: Restrict RTAS requests from userspace A number of userspace utilities depend on making calls to RTAS to retrieve information and update various things. The existing API through which we expose RTAS to userspace exposes more RTAS functionality than we actually need, through the sys_rtas syscall, which allows root (or anyone with CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to make any RTAS call they want with arbitrary arguments. Many RTAS calls take the address of a buffer as an argument, and it's up to the caller to specify the physical address of the buffer as an argument. We allocate a buffer (the "RMO buffer") in the Real Memory Area that RTAS can access, and then expose the physical address and size of this buffer in /proc/powerpc/rtas/rmo_buffer. Userspace is expected to read this address, poke at the buffer using /dev/mem, and pass an address in the RMO buffer to the RTAS call. However, there's nothing stopping the caller from specifying whatever address they want in the RTAS call, and it's easy to construct a series of RTAS calls that can overwrite arbitrary bytes (even without /dev/mem access). Additionally, there are some RTAS calls that do potentially dangerous things and for which there are no legitimate userspace use cases. In the past, this would not have been a particularly big deal as it was assumed that root could modify all system state freely, but with Secure Boot and lockdown we need to care about this. We can't fundamentally change the ABI at this point, however we can address this by implementing a filter that checks RTAS calls against a list of permitted calls and forces the caller to use addresses within the RMO buffer. The list is based off the list of calls that are used by the librtas userspace library, and has been tested with a number of existing userspace RTAS utilities. For compatibility with any applications we are not aware of that require other calls, the filter can be turned off at build time.

powerpc: PPC_SECURE_BOOT should not require PowerNV In commit 61f879d97ce4 ("powerpc/pseries: Detect secure and trusted boot state of the system.") we taught the kernel how to understand the secure-boot parameters used by a pseries guest. However, CONFIG_PPC_SECURE_BOOT still requires PowerNV. I didn't catch this because pseries_le_defconfig includes support for PowerNV and so everything still worked. Indeed, most configs will. Nonetheless, technically PPC_SECURE_BOOT doesn't require PowerNV any more. The secure variables support (PPC_SECVAR_SYSFS) doesn't do anything on pSeries yet, but I don't think it's worth adding a new condition - at some stage we'll want to add a backend for pSeries anyway.

x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}() In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast() implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults / exceptions are handled. Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic() implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this case: On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 11:28 AM Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> wrote: > > On Thu, Apr 30, 2020 at 6:21 PM Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> wrote: > > > > However now I see that copy_user_generic() works for the wrong reason. > > It works because the exception on the source address due to poison > > looks no different than a write fault on the user address to the > > caller, it's still just a short copy.

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel(). Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch. One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

In-order to support sparse memory layout we need to increase our linear mapping space and reduce other mappings.

powerpc/64s: Implement queued spinlocks and rwlocks These have shown significantly improved performance and fairness when spinlock contention is moderate to high on very large systems. With this series including subsequent patches, on a 16 socket 1536 thread POWER9, a stress test such as same-file open/close from all CPUs gets big speedups, 11620op/s aggregate with simple spinlocks vs 384158op/s (33x faster), where the difference in throughput between the fastest and slowest thread goes from 7x to 1.4x. Thanks to the fast path being identical in terms of atomics and barriers (after a subsequent optimisation patch), single threaded performance is not changed (no measurable difference). On smaller systems, performance and fairness seems to be generally improved. Using dbench on tmpfs as a test (that starts to run into kernel spinlock contention), a 2-socket OpenPOWER POWER9 system was tested with bare metal and KVM guest configurations. Results can be found here: https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/305#issuecomment-663487453 Observations are: - Queued spinlocks are equal when contention is insignificant, as expected and as measured with microbenchmarks. - When there is contention, on bare metal queued spinlocks have better throughput and max latency at all points. - When virtualised, queued spinlocks are slightly worse approaching peak throughput, but significantly better throughput and max latency at all points beyond peak, until queued spinlock maximum latency rises when clients are 2x vCPUs. The regressions haven't been analysed very well yet, there are a lot of things that can be tuned, particularly the paravirtualised locking, but the numbers already look like a good net win even on relatively small systems.

powerpc: use the generic dma_ops_bypass mode Use the DMA API bypass mechanism for direct window mappings. This uses common code and speed up the direct mapping case by avoiding indirect calls just when not using dma ops at all. It also fixes a problem where the sync_* methods were using the bypass check for DMA allocations, but those are part of the streaming ops. Note that this patch loses the DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING override, which has never been well defined, as is only used by a few drivers, which IIRC never showed up in the typical Cell blade setups that are affected by the ordering workaround.

powerpc: Remove inaccessible CMDLINE default Since commit cbe46bd4f510 ("powerpc: remove CONFIG_CMDLINE #ifdef mess") CONFIG_CMDLINE has always had a value regardless of CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL. For example: $ make ARCH=powerpc defconfig $ cat .config # CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not set CONFIG_CMDLINE="" When enabling CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL this value is kept making the 'default "..." if CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL' ineffective. $ ./scripts/config --enable CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL $ cat .config CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL=y CONFIG_CMDLINE="" Remove CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL and the inaccessible default.

mm/debug: add tests validating architecture page table helpers This adds tests which will validate architecture page table helpers and other accessors in their compliance with expected generic MM semantics. This will help various architectures in validating changes to existing page table helpers or addition of new ones. This test covers basic page table entry transformations including but not limited to old, young, dirty, clean, write, write protect etc at various level along with populating intermediate entries with next page table page and validating them. Test page table pages are allocated from system memory with required size and alignments. The mapped pfns at page table levels are derived from a real pfn representing a valid kernel text symbol. This test gets called via late_initcall(). This test gets built and run when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE is selected. Any architecture, which is willing to subscribe this test will need to select ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE. For now this is limited to arc, arm64, x86, s390 and powerpc platforms where the test is known to build and run successfully Going forward, other architectures too can subscribe the test after fixing any build or runtime problems with their page table helpers. Folks interested in making sure that a given platform's page table helpers conform to expected generic MM semantics should enable the above config which will just trigger this test during boot. Any non conformity here will be reported as an warning which would need to be fixed. This test will help catch any changes to the agreed upon semantics expected from generic MM and enable platforms to accommodate it thereafter.

Since CONFIG_NODES_SPAN_OTHER_NODES is only used to pick a stub or a real implementation of early_pfn_in_nid(), it is also not needed anymore.

mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP option CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is used to differentiate initialization of nodes and zones structures between the systems that have region to node mapping in memblock and those that don't. Currently all the NUMA architectures enable this option and for the non-NUMA systems we can presume that all the memory belongs to node 0 and therefore the compile time configuration option is not required. The remaining few architectures that use DISCONTIGMEM without NUMA are easily updated to use memblock_add_node() instead of memblock_add() and thus have proper correspondence of memblock regions to NUMA nodes. Still, free_area_init_node() must have a backward compatible version because its semantics with and without CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is different. Once all the architectures will use the new semantics, the entire compatibility layer can be dropped. To avoid addition of extra run time memory to store node id for architectures that keep memblock but have only a single node, the node id field of the memblock_region is guarded by CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and the corresponding accessors presume that in those cases it is always 0.

powerpc/32: Disable KASAN with pages bigger than 16k Mapping of early shadow area is implemented by using a single static page table having all entries pointing to the same early shadow page. The shadow area must therefore occupy full PGD entries. The shadow area has a size of 128MB starting at 0xf8000000. With 4k pages, a PGD entry is 4MB With 16k pages, a PGD entry is 64MB With 64k pages, a PGD entry is 1GB which is too big. Until we rework the early shadow mapping, disable KASAN when the page size is too big.

These architectures should use probe_read_{user,kernel}_str helpers. For backward compatibility, the problematic functions are still available on architectures where the user and kernel address spaces are not overlapping. This is defined CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE. At the moment, these backward compatible functions are enabled only on x86_64, arm, and arm64. Let's do it also on powerpc that has the non overlapping address space as well.

powerpc/64s: Disable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX Several strange crashes have been eventually traced back to STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and its interaction with code patching. Various paths in our ftrace, kprobes and other patching code need to be hardened against patching failures, otherwise we can end up running with partially/incorrectly patched ftrace paths, kprobes or jump labels, which can then cause strange crashes. Although fixes for those are in development, they're not -rc material. There also seem to be problems with the underlying strict RWX logic, which needs further debugging. So for now disable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on 64-bit to prevent people from enabling the option and tripping over the bugs.

mm/memremap_pages: Introduce memremap_compat_align() The "sub-section memory hotplug" facility allows memremap_pages() users like libnvdimm to compensate for hardware platforms like x86 that have a section size larger than their hardware memory mapping granularity. The compensation that sub-section support affords is being tolerant of physical memory resources shifting by units smaller (64MiB on x86) than the memory-hotplug section size (128 MiB). Where the platform physical-memory mapping granularity is limited by the number and capability of address-decode-registers in the memory controller. While the sub-section support allows memremap_pages() to operate on sub-section (2MiB) granularity, the Power architecture may still require 16MiB alignment on "!radix_enabled()" platforms. In order for libnvdimm to be able to detect and manage this per-arch limitation, introduce memremap_compat_align() as a common minimum alignment across all driver-facing memory-mapping interfaces, and let Power override it to 16MiB in the "!radix_enabled()" case. The assumption / requirement for 16MiB to be a viable memremap_compat_align() value is that Power does not have platforms where its equivalent of address-decode-registers never hardware remaps a persistent memory resource on smaller than 16MiB boundaries. Note that I tried my best to not add a new Kconfig symbol, but header include entanglements defeated the #ifndef memremap_compat_align design pattern and the need to export it defeats the __weak design pattern for arch overrides. Based on an initial patch by Aneesh.

mm/mmu_gather: invalidate TLB correctly on batch allocation failure and flush Architectures for which we have hardware walkers of Linux page table should flush TLB on mmu gather batch allocation failures and batch flush. Some architectures like POWER supports multiple translation modes (hash and radix) and in the case of POWER only radix translation mode needs the above TLBI. This is because for hash translation mode kernel wants to avoid this extra flush since there are no hardware walkers of linux page table. With radix translation, the hardware also walks linux page table and with that, kernel needs to make sure to TLB invalidate page walk cache before page table pages are freed. More details in commit d86564a2f085 ("mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREE") The changes to sparc are to make sure we keep the old behavior since we are now removing HAVE_RCU_TABLE_NO_INVALIDATE. The default value for tlb_needs_table_invalidate is to always force an invalidate and sparc can avoid the table invalidate. Hence we define tlb_needs_table_invalidate to false for sparc architecture.

powerpc/mmu_gather: enable RCU_TABLE_FREE even for !SMP case Patch series "Fixup page directory freeing", v4. This is a repost of patch series from Peter with the arch specific changes except ppc64 dropped. ppc64 changes are added here because we are redoing the patch series on top of ppc64 changes. This makes it easy to backport these changes. Only the first 2 patches need to be backported to stable. The thing is, on anything SMP, freeing page directories should observe the exact same order as normal page freeing: 1) unhook page/directory 2) TLB invalidate 3) free page/directory Without this, any concurrent page-table walk could end up with a Use-after-Free. This is esp. trivial for anything that has software page-table walkers (HAVE_FAST_GUP / software TLB fill) or the hardware caches partial page-walks (ie. caches page directories). Even on UP this might give issues since mmu_gather is preemptible these days. An interrupt or preempted task accessing user pages might stumble into the free page if the hardware caches page directories. This patch series fixes ppc64 and add generic MMU_GATHER changes to support the conversion of other architectures. I haven't added patches w.r.t other architecture because they are yet to be acked. This patch (of 9): A followup patch is going to make sure we correctly invalidate page walk cache before we free page table pages. In order to keep things simple enable RCU_TABLE_FREE even for !SMP so that we don't have to fixup the !SMP case differently in the followup patch !SMP case is right now broken for radix translation w.r.t page walk cache flush. We can get interrupted in between page table free and that would imply we have page walk cache entries pointing to tables which got freed already. Michael said "both our platforms that run on Power9 force SMP on in Kconfig, so the !SMP case is unlikely to be a problem for anyone in practice, unless they've hacked their kernel to build it !SMP."

of: Add OF_DMA_DEFAULT_COHERENT & select it on powerpc There's an OF helper called of_dma_is_coherent(), which checks if a device has a "dma-coherent" property to see if the device is coherent for DMA. But on some platforms devices are coherent by default, and on some platforms it's not possible to update existing device trees to add the "dma-coherent" property. So add a Kconfig symbol to allow arch code to tell of_dma_is_coherent() that devices are coherent by default, regardless of the presence of the property. Select that symbol on powerpc when NOT_COHERENT_CACHE is not set, ie. when the system has a coherent cache.

This helps in cases where FADump is not enabled but the subsequent memory preserving kernel boot is likely to process this crash data. One typical usecase for this config option is petitboot kernel. As OPAL allows registering address with it in the first kernel and retrieving it after MPIPL, use it to store the top of boot memory. A kernel that intends to preserve crash data retrieves it and avoids using memory beyond this address.

dma-mapping: fix page attributes for dma_mmap_* All the way back to introducing dma_common_mmap we've defaulted to mark the pages as uncached. But this is wrong for DMA coherent devices. Later on DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE also got incorrect treatment as that flag is only treated special on the alloc side for non-coherent devices. Introduce a new dma_pgprot helper that deals with the check for coherent devices so that only the remapping cases ever reach arch_dma_mmap_pgprot and we thus ensure no aliasing of page attributes happens, which makes the powerpc version of arch_dma_mmap_pgprot obsolete and simplifies the remaining ones. Note that this means arch_dma_mmap_pgprot is a bit misnamed now, but we'll phase it out soon.

powerpc/dma: Fix invalid DMA mmap behavior The refactor of powerpc DMA functions in commit 6666cc17d780 ("powerpc/dma: remove dma_nommu_mmap_coherent") incorrectly changes the way DMA mappings are handled on powerpc. Since this change, all mapped pages are marked as cache-inhibited through the default implementation of arch_dma_mmap_pgprot. This differs from the previous behavior of only marking pages in noncoherent mappings as cache-inhibited and has resulted in sporadic system crashes in certain hardware configurations and workloads (see Bugzilla). This commit restores the previous correct behavior by providing an implementation of arch_dma_mmap_pgprot that only marks pages in noncoherent mappings as cache-inhibited. As this behavior should be universal for all powerpc platforms a new file, dma-generic.c, was created to store it.

mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_DEVMAP ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DEVICE is somewhat meaningless in itself, and combined with the long-out-of-date comment can lead to the impression than an architecture may just enable it (since __add_pages() now "comprehends device memory" for itself) and expect things to work. In practice, however, ZONE_DEVICE users have little chance of functioning correctly without __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_DEVMAP, so let's clean that up the same way as ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL and make it the proper dependency so the real situation is clearer.

kernel/cpu: Allow non-zero CPU to be primary for suspend / kexec freeze This patch provides an arch option, ARCH_SUSPEND_NONZERO_CPU, to opt-in to allowing suspend to occur on one of the housekeeping CPUs rather than hardcoded CPU0. This will allow CPU0 to be a nohz_full CPU with a later change. It may be possible for platforms with hardware/firmware restrictions on suspend/wake effectively support this by handing off the final stage to CPU0 when kernel housekeeping is no longer required. Another option is to make housekeeping / nohz_full mask dynamic at runtime, but the complexity could not be justified at this time.

Until then, a warning will be raised if trying to use KASAN on an hash 6xx. To support KASAN, this patch initialises that MMU mapings for accessing to the KASAN shadow area defined in a previous patch. An early mapping is set as soon as the kernel code has been relocated at its definitive place. Then the definitive mapping is set once paging is initialised. For modules, the shadow area is allocated at module_alloc(). Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

locking/rwsem: Remove rwsem-spinlock.c & use rwsem-xadd.c for all archs Currently, we have two different implementation of rwsem: 1) CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK (rwsem-spinlock.c) 2) CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM (rwsem-xadd.c) As we are going to use a single generic implementation for rwsem-xadd.c and no architecture-specific code will be needed, there is no point in keeping two different implementations of rwsem. In most cases, the performance of rwsem-spinlock.c will be worse. It also doesn't get all the performance tuning and optimizations that had been implemented in rwsem-xadd.c over the years. For simplication, we are going to remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all architectures use a single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c. All references to RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK and RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM in the code are removed.

powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which moves the thread_info into task_struct. Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages: - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack overflows. - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult. This has the following consequences: - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct. - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when CONFIG_SMP is active. - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field. This patch: - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes. - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current. - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK. - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication between ASM constants and C constants. - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer argument.

powerpc/mm/32s: Use BATs for STRICT_KERNEL_RWX Today, STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is based on the use of regular pages to map kernel pages. On Book3s 32, it has three consequences: - Using pages instead of BAT for mapping kernel linear memory severely impacts performance. - Exec protection is not effective because no-execute cannot be set at page level (except on 603 which doesn't have hash tables) - Write protection is not effective because PP bits do not provide RO mode for kernel-only pages (except on 603 which handles it in software via PAGE_DIRTY) On the 603+, we have: - Independent IBAT and DBAT allowing limitation of exec parts. - NX bit can be set in segment registers to forbit execution on memory mapped by pages. - RO mode on DBATs even for kernel-only blocks. On the 601, there is nothing much we can do other than warn the user about it, because: - BATs are common to instructions and data. - BAT do not provide RO mode for kernel-only blocks. - segment registers don't have the NX bit. In order to use IBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns _etext to BAT block sizes (128kb) - Set NX bit in kernel segment register (Except on vmalloc area when CONFIG_MODULES is selected) - Maps kernel text with IBATs. In order to use DBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns RW DATA to BAT block sizes (4M) - Maps kernel RO area with write prohibited DBATs - Maps remaining memory with remaining DBATs Here is what we get with this patch on a 832x when activating STRICT_KERNEL_RWX: Symbols: c0000000 T _stext c0680000 R __start_rodata c0680000 R _etext c0800000 T __init_begin c0800000 T _sinittext ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/block_address_translation ---[ Instruction Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc03fffff 0x00000000 Kernel EXEC coherent 1: 0xc0400000-0xc05fffff 0x00400000 Kernel EXEC coherent 2: 0xc0600000-0xc067ffff 0x00600000 Kernel EXEC coherent 3: - 4: - 5: - 6: - 7: - ---[ Data Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc07fffff 0x00000000 Kernel RO coherent 1: 0xc0800000-0xc0ffffff 0x00800000 Kernel RW coherent 2: 0xc1000000-0xc1ffffff 0x01000000 Kernel RW coherent 3: 0xc2000000-0xc3ffffff 0x02000000 Kernel RW coherent 4: 0xc4000000-0xc7ffffff 0x04000000 Kernel RW coherent 5: 0xc8000000-0xcfffffff 0x08000000 Kernel RW coherent 6: 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff 0x10000000 Kernel RW coherent 7: - ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/segment_registers ---[ User Segments ]--- 0x00000000-0x0fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa085d0 0x10000000-0x1fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa086e1 0x20000000-0x2fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa087f2 0x30000000-0x3fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08903 0x40000000-0x4fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08a14 0x50000000-0x5fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08b25 0x60000000-0x6fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08c36 0x70000000-0x7fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08d47 0x80000000-0x8fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08e58 0x90000000-0x9fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08f69 0xa0000000-0xafffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0907a 0xb0000000-0xbfffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0918b ---[ Kernel Segments ]--- 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ccc 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ddd 0xe0000000-0xefffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000eee 0xf0000000-0xffffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000fff Aligning _etext to 128kb allows to map up to 32Mb text with 8 IBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 2Mb + 1Mb + 512kb + 256kb + 128kb (+ 128kb) = 32Mb (A 9th IBAT is unneeded as 32Mb would need only a single 32Mb block) Aligning data to 4M allows to map up to 512Mb data with 8 DBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 4Mb + 32Mb + 64Mb + 128Mb + 256Mb = 512Mb Because some processors only have 4 BATs and because some targets need DBATs for mapping other areas, the following patch will allow to modify _etext and data alignment.

But we didn't update the dependencies of the PPC_64K_PAGES option, meaning a randconfig can still trigger this code and cause a build breakage, eg: arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/64/pgtable.h:14:2: error: #error "Page size not supported" arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/mmu-book3e.h:275:2: error: #error Unsupported page size So remove PPC_BOOK3E_64 from the dependencies.

32-bit userspace ABI: introduce ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T config option All new 32-bit architectures should have 64-bit userspace off_t type, but existing architectures has 32-bit ones. To enforce the rule, new config option is added to arch/Kconfig that defaults ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T to be disabled for new 32-bit architectures. All existing 32-bit architectures enable it explicitly. New option affects force_o_largefile() behaviour. Namely, if userspace off_t is 64-bits long, we have no reason to reject user to open big files. Note that even if architectures has only 64-bit off_t in the kernel (arc, c6x, h8300, hexagon, nios2, openrisc, and unicore32), a libc may use 32-bit off_t, and therefore want to limit the file size to 4GB unless specified differently in the open flags.

powerpc: Adopt nvram module for PPC64 Adopt nvram module to reduce code duplication. This means CONFIG_NVRAM becomes available to PPC64 builds. Previously it was only available to PPC32 builds because it depended on CONFIG_GENERIC_NVRAM. The IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl as implemented on PPC64 validates the offset returned by pmac_get_partition(). Do the same in the nvram module. Note that the old PPC32 generic_nvram module lacked this test. So when CONFIG_PPC32 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl would have returned 0 (always). But when CONFIG_PPC64 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl would have returned -1 (which is -EPERM) when the requested partition was not found. With this patch, the result is now -EINVAL on both PPC32 and PPC64 when the requested PowerMac NVRAM partition is not found. This is a userspace- visible change, in the non-existent partition case, which would be in an error path for an IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl syscall.

In my understanding, the reason is just to support bare file paths in the source statement. I do not see a good reason to complicate Kconfig for the room of ambiguity. The majority of code already surrounds file paths with double quotes, and it makes sense since file paths are constant string literals. Make it treewide consistent now.

powerpc/8xx: reintroduce 16K pages with HW assistance Using this HW assistance implies some constraints on the page table structure: - Regardless of the main page size used (4k or 16k), the level 1 table (PGD) contains 1024 entries and each PGD entry covers a 4Mbytes area which is managed by a level 2 table (PTE) containing also 1024 entries each describing a 4k page. - 16k pages require 4 identifical entries in the L2 table - 512k pages PTE have to be spread every 128 bytes in the L2 table - 8M pages PTE are at the address pointed by the L1 entry and each 8M page require 2 identical entries in the PGD. In order to use hardware assistance with 16K pages, this patch does the following modifications: - Make PGD size independent of the main page size - In 16k pages mode, redefine pte_t as a struct with 4 elements, and populate those 4 elements in __set_pte_at() and pte_update() - Adapt the size of the hugepage tables. - Define a PTE_FRAGMENT_NB so that a 16k page contains 4 page tables.

powerpc/8xx: Temporarily disable 16k pages and hugepages In preparation of making use of hardware assistance in TLB handlers, this patch temporarily disables 16K pages and hugepages. The reason is that when using HW assistance in 4K pages mode, the linux model fit with the HW model for 4K pages and 8M pages. However for 16K pages and 512K mode some additional work is needed to get linux model fit with HW model. For the 8M pages, they will naturaly come back when we switch to HW assistance, without any additional handling. In order to keep the following patch smaller, the removal of the current special handling for 8M pages gets removed here as well. Therefore the 4K pages mode will be implemented first and without support for 512k hugepages. Then the 512k hugepages will be brought back. And the 16K pages will be implemented in the following step. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

PCI: consolidate the PCI_DOMAINS and PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC config options Move the definitions to drivers/pci and let the architectures select them. Two small differences to before: PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC now selects PCI_DOMAINS, cutting down the churn for modern architectures. As the only architectured arm did previously also offer PCI_DOMAINS as a user visible choice in addition to selecting it from the relevant configs, this is gone now.

powerpc/32: add stack protector support This functionality was tentatively added in the past (commit 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support")) but had to be reverted (commit f2574030b0e3 ("powerpc: Revert the initial stack protector support") because of GCC implementing it differently whether it had been built with libc support or not. Now, GCC offers the possibility to manually set the stack-protector mode (global or tls) regardless of libc support. This time, the patch selects HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR only if -mstack-protector-guard=tls is supported by GCC. On PPC32, as register r2 points to current task_struct at all time, the stack_canary located inside task_struct can be used directly by using the following GCC options: -mstack-protector-guard=tls -mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2 -mstack-protector-guard-offset=offsetof(struct task_struct, stack_canary)) The protector is disabled for prom_init and bootx_init as it is too early to handle it properly. $ echo CORRUPT_STACK > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT [ 134.943666] Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: lkdtm_CORRUPT_STACK+0x64/0x64 [ 134.943666] [ 134.955414] CPU: 0 PID: 283 Comm: sh Not tainted 4.18.0-s3k-dev-12143-ga3272be41209 #835 [ 134.963380] Call Trace: [ 134.965860] [c6615d60] [c001f76c] panic+0x118/0x260 (unreliable) [ 134.971775] [c6615dc0] [c001f654] panic+0x0/0x260 [ 134.976435] [c6615dd0] [c032c368] lkdtm_CORRUPT_STACK_STRONG+0x0/0x64 [ 134.982769] [c6615e00] [ffffffff] 0xffffffff Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc: disable support for relative ksymtab references The newly added code that emits ksymtab entries as pairs of 32-bit relative references interacts poorly with the way powerpc lays out its address space: when a module exports a per-CPU variable, the primary module region covering the ksymtab entry -and thus the 32-bit relative reference- is too far away from the actual per-CPU variable's base address (to which the per-CPU offsets are applied to obtain the respective address of each CPU's copy), resulting in corruption when the module loader attempts to resolve symbol references of modules that are loaded on top and link to the exported per-CPU symbol. So let's disable this feature on powerpc. Even though it implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE, it does not implement CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE and so KASLR kernels (which are the main target of the feature) do not exist on powerpc anyway.

arch: enable relative relocations for arm64, power and x86 Patch series "add support for relative references in special sections", v10. This adds support for emitting special sections such as initcall arrays, PCI fixups and tracepoints as relative references rather than absolute references. This reduces the size by 50% on 64-bit architectures, but more importantly, it removes the need for carrying relocation metadata for these sections in relocatable kernels (e.g., for KASLR) that needs to be fixed up at boot time. On arm64, this reduces the vmlinux footprint of such a reference by 8x (8 byte absolute reference + 24 byte RELA entry vs 4 byte relative reference) Patch #3 was sent out before as a single patch. This series supersedes the previous submission. This version makes relative ksymtab entries dependent on the new Kconfig symbol HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS rather than trying to infer from kbuild test robot replies for which architectures it should be blacklisted. Patch #1 introduces the new Kconfig symbol HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS, and sets it for the main architectures that are expected to benefit the most from this feature, i.e., 64-bit architectures or ones that use runtime relocations. Patch #2 add support for #define'ing __DISABLE_EXPORTS to get rid of ksymtab/kcrctab sections in decompressor and EFI stub objects when rebuilding existing C files to run in a different context. Patches #4 - #6 implement relative references for initcalls, PCI fixups and tracepoints, respectively, all of which produce sections with order ~1000 entries on an arm64 defconfig kernel with tracing enabled. This means we save about 28 KB of vmlinux space for each of these patches. [From the v7 series blurb, which included the jump_label patches as well]: For the arm64 kernel, all patches combined reduce the memory footprint of vmlinux by about 1.3 MB (using a config copied from Ubuntu that has KASLR enabled), of which ~1 MB is the size reduction of the RELA section in .init, and the remaining 300 KB is reduction of .text/.data. This patch (of 6): Before updating certain subsystems to use place relative 32-bit relocations in special sections, to save space and reduce the number of absolute relocations that need to be processed at runtime by relocatable kernels, introduce the Kconfig symbol and define it for some architectures that should be able to support and benefit from it.

mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture header files. Most of the time, it is defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per architecture static definition. This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL. Here notes for some architecture where the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious: arm __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE. powerpc __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files: - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is included in all the other cases. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time. sparc: __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64. So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64 There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

powerpc/livepatch: Implement reliable stack tracing for the consistency model The "Power Architecture 64-Bit ELF V2 ABI" says in section 2.3.2.3: [...] There are several rules that must be adhered to in order to ensure reliable and consistent call chain backtracing: * Before a function calls any other function, it shall establish its own stack frame, whose size shall be a multiple of 16 bytes. – In instances where a function’s prologue creates a stack frame, the back-chain word of the stack frame shall be updated atomically with the value of the stack pointer (r1) when a back chain is implemented. (This must be supported as default by all ELF V2 ABI-compliant environments.) [...] – The function shall save the link register that contains its return address in the LR save doubleword of its caller’s stack frame before calling another function. To me this sounds like the equivalent of HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. This patch may be unneccessarily limited to ppc64le, but OTOH the only user of this flag so far is livepatching, which is only implemented on PPCs with 64-LE, a.k.a. ELF ABI v2. Feel free to add other ppc variants, but so far only ppc64le got tested. This change also implements save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() for ppc64le that checks for the above conditions, where possible.

swiotlb: move the SWIOTLB config symbol to lib/Kconfig This way we have one central definition of it, and user can select it as needed. The new option is not user visible, which is the behavior it had in most architectures, with a few notable exceptions: - On x86_64 and mips/loongson3 it used to be user selectable, but defaulted to y. It now is unconditional, which seems like the right thing for 64-bit architectures without guaranteed availablity of IOMMUs. - on powerpc the symbol is user selectable and defaults to n, but many boards select it. This change assumes no working setup required a manual selection, but if that turned out to be wrong we'll have to add another select statement or two for the respective boards.

kexec_file: make use of purgatory optional Patch series "kexec_file, x86, powerpc: refactoring for other architecutres", v2. This is a preparatory patchset for adding kexec_file support on arm64. It was originally included in a arm64 patch set[1], but Philipp is also working on their kexec_file support on s390[2] and some changes are now conflicting. So these common parts were extracted and put into a separate patch set for better integration. What's more, my original patch#4 was split into a few small chunks for easier review after Dave's comment. As such, the resulting code is basically identical with my original, and the only *visible* differences are: - renaming of _kexec_kernel_image_probe() and _kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() - change one of types of arguments at prepare_elf64_headers() Those, unfortunately, require a couple of trivial changes on the rest (#1, #6 to #13) of my arm64 kexec_file patch set[1]. Patch #1 allows making a use of purgatory optional, particularly useful for arm64. Patch #2 commonalizes arch_kexec_kernel_{image_probe, image_load, verify_sig}() and arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() across architectures. Patches #3-#7 are also intended to generalize parse_elf64_headers(), along with exclude_mem_range(), to be made best re-use of. [1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2018-February/561182.html [2] http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1802.1/02596.html This patch (of 7): On arm64, crash dump kernel's usable memory is protected by *unmapping* it from kernel virtual space unlike other architectures where the region is just made read-only. It is highly unlikely that the region is accidentally corrupted and this observation rationalizes that digest check code can also be dropped from purgatory. The resulting code is so simple as it doesn't require a bit ugly re-linking/relocation stuff, i.e. arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add(). Please see: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-December/545428.html All that the purgatory does is to shuffle arguments and jump into a new kernel, while we still need to have some space for a hash value (purgatory_sha256_digest) which is never checked against. As such, it doesn't make sense to have trampline code between old kernel and new kernel on arm64. This patch introduces a new configuration, ARCH_HAS_KEXEC_PURGATORY, and allows related code to be compiled in only if necessary.

powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm() Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

One of those was for meltdown: /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown This commit wires up that file for 64-bit Book3S powerpc.

powerpc/64s: Replace CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 with CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64 CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 indicates support for the "standard" powerpc MMU on 64-bit CPUs. The "standard" MMU refers to the hash page table MMU found in "server" processors, from IBM mainly. Currently CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is == CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. While it's annoying to have two symbols that always have the same value, it's not quite annoying enough to bother removing one. However with the arrival of Power9, we now have the situation where CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is enabled, but the kernel is running using the Radix MMU - *not* the "standard" MMU. So it is now actively confusing to use it, because it implies that code is disabled or inactive when the Radix MMU is in use, however that is not necessarily true. So s/CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64/CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/, and do some minor formatting updates of some of the affected lines. This will be a pain for backports, but c'est la vie.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series.

Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point).

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

powerpc: Use instruction emulation infrastructure to handle alignment faults This replaces almost all of the instruction emulation code in fix_alignment() with calls to analyse_instr(), emulate_loadstore() and emulate_dcbz(). The only emulation code left is the SPE emulation code; analyse_instr() etc. do not handle SPE instructions at present. One result of this is that we can now handle alignment faults on all the new VSX load and store instructions that were added in POWER9. VSX loads/stores will take alignment faults for unaligned accesses to cache-inhibited memory. Another effect is that we no longer rely on the DAR and DSISR values set by the processor. With this, we now need to include the instruction emulation code unconditionally. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Restore the dependency. Add it in for x86 too, despite x86 always selecting PERF_EVENTS it seems reasonable to make the dependency explicit.

include/linux/string.h: add the option of fortified string.h functions This adds support for compiling with a rough equivalent to the glibc _FORTIFY_SOURCE=1 feature, providing compile-time and runtime buffer overflow checks for string.h functions when the compiler determines the size of the source or destination buffer at compile-time. Unlike glibc, it covers buffer reads in addition to writes. GNU C __builtin_*_chk intrinsics are avoided because they would force a much more complex implementation. They aren't designed to detect read overflows and offer no real benefit when using an implementation based on inline checks. Inline checks don't add up to much code size and allow full use of the regular string intrinsics while avoiding the need for a bunch of _chk functions and per-arch assembly to avoid wrapper overhead. This detects various overflows at compile-time in various drivers and some non-x86 core kernel code. There will likely be issues caught in regular use at runtime too. Future improvements left out of initial implementation for simplicity, as it's all quite optional and can be done incrementally: * Some of the fortified string functions (strncpy, strcat), don't yet place a limit on reads from the source based on __builtin_object_size of the source buffer. * Extending coverage to more string functions like strlcat. * It should be possible to optionally use __builtin_object_size(x, 1) for some functions (C strings) to detect intra-object overflows (like glibc's _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), but for now this takes the conservative approach to avoid likely compatibility issues. * The compile-time checks should be made available via a separate config option which can be enabled by default (or always enabled) once enough time has passed to get the issues it catches fixed. Kees said: "This is great to have. While it was out-of-tree code, it would have blocked at least CVE-2016-3858 from being exploitable (improper size argument to strlcpy()).

powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdog Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based hardlockup detector. The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going through perf. Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that would prevent the perf detector from working in those regions. Additionally, implement a SMP based detector where all CPUs watch one another by pinging a shared cpumask. This is because powerpc Book3S does not have a true periodic local NMI, but some platforms do implement a true NMI IPI. If a CPU is stuck with interrupts hard disabled, the soft-NMI watchdog does not work, but the SMP watchdog will. Even on platforms without a true NMI IPI to get a good trace from the stuck CPU, other CPUs will notice the lockup sufficiently to report it and panic.

kernel/watchdog: split up config options Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces for the lockup detectors. An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces. sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the interfaces, but not fully yet. It should probably be converted to a full HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

powerpc/Kconfig: Enable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX for some configs All code that patches kernel text has been moved over to using patch_instruction() and patch_instruction() is able to cope with the kernel text being read only. The linker script has been updated to ensure the read only data ends on a large page boundary, so it and the preceding kernel text can be marked R_X. We also have implementations of mark_rodata_ro() for Hash and Radix MMU modes. There are some corner-cases missing when the kernel is built relocatable, so for now make it depend on !RELOCATABLE. There's also a temporary workaround to depend on !HIBERNATION to avoid a build failure, that will be removed once we've merged with the PM tree.

powerpc: Convert VDSO update function to use new update_vsyscall interface This converts the powerpc VDSO time update function to use the new interface introduced in commit 576094b7f0aa ("time: Introduce new GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL", 2012-09-11). Where the old interface gave us the time as of the last update in seconds and whole nanoseconds, with the new interface we get the nanoseconds part effectively in a binary fixed-point format with tk->tkr_mono.shift bits to the right of the binary point. With the old interface, the fractional nanoseconds got truncated, meaning that the value returned by the VDSO clock_gettime function would have about 1ns of jitter in it compared to the value computed by the generic timekeeping code in the kernel. The powerpc VDSO time functions (clock_gettime and gettimeofday) already work in units of 2^-32 seconds, or 0.23283 ns, because that makes it simple to split the result into seconds and fractional seconds, and represent the fractional seconds in either microseconds or nanoseconds. This is good enough accuracy for now, so this patch avoids changing how the VDSO works or the interface in the VDSO data page. This patch converts the powerpc update_vsyscall_old to be called update_vsyscall and use the new interface. We convert the fractional second to units of 2^-32 seconds without truncating to whole nanoseconds. (There is still a conversion to whole nanoseconds for any legacy users of the vdso_data/systemcfg stamp_xtime field.) In addition, this improves the accuracy of the computation of tb_to_xs for those systems with high-frequency timebase clocks (>= 268.5 MHz) by doing the right shift in two parts, one before the multiplication and one after, rather than doing the right shift before the multiplication. (We can't do all of the right shift after the multiplication unless we use 128-bit arithmetic.)

This patch discards the three __ilog2() functions and defines __ilog2() as ilog2() For non constant calls, the generated code is doing the same: int test__ilog2(unsigned long x) { return __ilog2(x); } int test__ilog2_u32(u32 n) { return __ilog2_u32(n); } int test__ilog2_u64(u64 n) { return __ilog2_u64(n); } On PPC32 before the patch: 00000000 <test__ilog2>: 0: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 4: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000c <test__ilog2_u32>: c: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 10: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 14: 4e 80 00 20 blr On PPC32 after the patch: 00000000 <test__ilog2>: 0: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 4: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 8: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000c <test__ilog2_u32>: c: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 10: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 14: 4e 80 00 20 blr On PPC64 before the patch: 0000000000000000 <.test__ilog2>: 0: 7c 63 00 74 cntlzd r3,r3 4: 20 63 00 3f subfic r3,r3,63 8: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 c: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000010 <.test__ilog2_u32>: 10: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 14: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 18: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 1c: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000020 <.test__ilog2_u64>: 20: 7c 63 00 74 cntlzd r3,r3 24: 20 63 00 3f subfic r3,r3,63 28: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 2c: 4e 80 00 20 blr On PPC64 after the patch: 0000000000000000 <.test__ilog2>: 0: 7c 63 00 74 cntlzd r3,r3 4: 20 63 00 3f subfic r3,r3,63 8: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 c: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000010 <.test__ilog2_u32>: 10: 7c 63 00 34 cntlzw r3,r3 14: 20 63 00 1f subfic r3,r3,31 18: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 1c: 4e 80 00 20 blr 0000000000000020 <.test__ilog2_u64>: 20: 7c 63 00 74 cntlzd r3,r3 24: 20 63 00 3f subfic r3,r3,63 28: 7c 63 07 b4 extsw r3,r3 2c: 4e 80 00 20 blr Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc/64: Handle linker stubs in low .text code Very large kernels may require linker stubs for branches from HEAD text code. The linker may place these stubs before the HEAD text sections, which breaks the assumption that HEAD text is located at 0 (or the .text section being located at 0x7000/0x8000 on Book3S kernels). Provide an option to create a small section just before the .text section with an empty 256 - 4 bytes, and adjust the start of the .text section to match. The linker will tend to put stubs in that section and not break our relative-to-absolute offset assumptions. This causes a small waste of space on common kernels, but allows large kernels to build and boot. For now, it is an EXPERT config option, defaulting to =n, but a reference is provided for it in the build-time check for such breakage. This is good enough for allyesconfig and custom users / hackers. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Dan Williams reported dax-pmem kernel warnings with the following signature: WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 245 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:155 percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0x1f5/0x200 percpu ref (dax_pmem_percpu_release [dax_pmem]) <= 0 (0) after switching to atomic ... and bisected it to this commit, which suggests possible memory corruption caused by the x86 fast-GUP conversion. He also pointed out: " This is similar to the backtrace when we were not properly handling pud faults and was fixed with this commit: 220ced1676c4 "mm: fix get_user_pages() vs device-dax pud mappings" I've found some missing _devmap checks in the generic get_user_pages_fast() path, but this does not fix the regression [...] " So given that there are known bugs, and a pretty robust looking bisection points to this commit suggesting that are unknown bugs in the conversion as well, revert it for the time being - we'll re-try in v4.13.

powerpc/mm: Add support for runtime configuration of ASLR limits Add powerpc support for mmap_rnd_bits and mmap_rnd_compat_bits, which are two sysctls that allow a user to configure the number of bits of randomness used for ASLR. Because of the way the Kconfig for ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS is defined, we have to construct at least the MIN value in Kconfig, vs in a header which would be more natural. Given that we just go ahead and do it all in Kconfig. At least according to the code (the documentation makes no mention of it), the value is defined as the number of bits of randomisation *of the page*, not the address. This makes some sense, with larger page sizes more of the low bits are forced to zero, which would reduce the randomisation if we didn't take the PAGE_SIZE into account. However it does mean the min/max values have to change depending on the PAGE_SIZE in order to actually limit the amount of address space consumed by the randomisation. The result of that is that we have to define the default values based on both 32-bit vs 64-bit, but also the configured PAGE_SIZE. Furthermore now that we have 128TB address space support on Book3S, we also have to take that into account. Finally we can wire up the value in arch_mmap_rnd().

powerpc/kprobes: Implement Optprobes Current infrastructure of kprobe uses the unconditional trap instruction to probe a running kernel. Optprobe allows kprobe to replace the trap with a branch instruction to a detour buffer. Detour buffer contains instructions to create an in memory pt_regs. Detour buffer also has a call to optimized_callback() which in turn call the pre_handler(). After the execution of the pre-handler, a call is made for instruction emulation. The NIP is determined in advanced through dummy instruction emulation and a branch instruction is created to the NIP at the end of the trampoline. To address the limitation of branch instruction in POWER architecture, detour buffer slot is allocated from a reserved area. For the time being, 64KB is reserved in memory for this purpose. Instructions which can be emulated using analyse_instr() are the candidates for optimization. Before optimization ensure that the address range between the detour buffer allocated and the instruction being probed is within +/- 32MB.

modversions: treat symbol CRCs as 32 bit quantities The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value. This has a couple of downsides: - Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes for each CRC on 64 bit architectures, - On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the core module code) - Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for CRCs. Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC value is stored. So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the __CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use 32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained for 32-bit architectures.

powerpc/8xx: Implement hw_breakpoint This patch implements HW breakpoint on the 8xx. The 8xx has capability to manage HW breakpoints, which is slightly different than BOOK3S: 1/ The breakpoint match doesn't trigger a DSI exception but a dedicated data breakpoint exception. 2/ The breakpoint happens after the instruction has completed, no need to single step or emulate the instruction, 3/ Matched address is not set in DAR but in BAR, 4/ DABR register doesn't exist, instead we have registers LCTRL1, LCTRL2 and CMPx registers, 5/ The match on one comparator is not on a double word but on a single word. The patch does: 1/ Prepare the dedicated registers in call to __set_dabr(). In order to emulate the double word handling of BOOK3S, comparator E is set to DABR address value and comparator F to address + 4. Then breakpoint 1 is set to match comparator E or F, 2/ Skip the singlestepping stage when compiled for CONFIG_PPC_8xx, 3/ Implement the exception. In that exception, the matched address is taken from SPRN_BAR and manage as if it was from SPRN_DAR. 4/ I/D TLB error exception routines perform a tlbie on bad TLBs. That tlbie triggers the breakpoint exception when performed on the breakpoint address. For this reason, the routine returns if the match is from one of those two tlbie.

If the toolchain is built without glibc support everything works fine, but if glibc is built then it leads to a panic at boot. The solution is not rc5 material, so revert the support for now. This reverts commits: 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support") 902e06eb86cd ("powerpc/32: Change the stack protector canary value per task") Fixes: 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support") Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc: ima: get the kexec buffer passed by the previous kernel Patch series "ima: carry the measurement list across kexec", v8. The TPM PCRs are only reset on a hard reboot. In order to validate a TPM's quote after a soft reboot (eg. kexec -e), the IMA measurement list of the running kernel must be saved and then restored on the subsequent boot, possibly of a different architecture. The existing securityfs binary_runtime_measurements file conveniently provides a serialized format of the IMA measurement list. This patch set serializes the measurement list in this format and restores it. Up to now, the binary_runtime_measurements was defined as architecture native format. The assumption being that userspace could and would handle any architecture conversions. With the ability of carrying the measurement list across kexec, possibly from one architecture to a different one, the per boot architecture information is lost and with it the ability of recalculating the template digest hash. To resolve this problem, without breaking the existing ABI, this patch set introduces the boot command line option "ima_canonical_fmt", which is arbitrarily defined as little endian. The need for this boot command line option will be limited to the existing version 1 format of the binary_runtime_measurements. Subsequent formats will be defined as canonical format (eg. TPM 2.0 support for larger digests). A simplified method of Thiago Bauermann's "kexec buffer handover" patch series for carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec is included in this patch set. The simplified method requires all file measurements be taken prior to executing the kexec load, as subsequent measurements will not be carried across the kexec and restored. This patch (of 10): The IMA kexec buffer allows the currently running kernel to pass the measurement list via a kexec segment to the kernel that will be kexec'd. The second kernel can check whether the previous kernel sent the buffer and retrieve it. This is the architecture-specific part which enables IMA to receive the measurement list passed by the previous kernel. It will be used in the next patch. The change in machine_kexec_64.c is to factor out the logic of removing an FDT memory reservation so that it can be used by remove_ima_buffer.

powerpc/64: Define ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE for 64-bit This is used in poison.h to offset poison values so that they don't point directly into user space. The value we choose sits roughly between user and kernel space, which means on their own the poison values don't point anywhere useful. If an attacker can cause an access at some offset from the poison value then we may still be in trouble, but by putting the poison values between user and kernel space we maximise the required size of that offset.

powerpc: Change places using CONFIG_KEXEC to use CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead. Commit 2965faa5e03d ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in. These options can be set independently from each other. Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

atomic64: no need for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE This came to light when implementing native 64-bit atomics for ARCv2. The atomic64 self-test code uses CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE to check whether atomic64_dec_if_positive() is available. It seems it was needed when not every arch defined it. However as of current code the Kconfig option seems needless - for CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 it is auto-enabled in lib/Kconfig and a generic definition of API is present lib/atomic64.c - arches with native 64-bit atomics select it in arch/*/Kconfig and define the API in their headers So I see no point in keeping the Kconfig option Compile tested for: - blackfin (CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64) - x86 (!CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64) - ia64 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1473703083-8625-3-git-send-email-vgupta@synopsys.com Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Cc: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> Cc: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com> Cc: Russell King <linux@armlinux.org.uk> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: "James E.J.

printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI context. The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from all CPUs. This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the commit a9edc8809328 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). The patchset brings two big advantages. First, it makes the NMI backtraces safe on all architectures for free. Second, it makes all NMI messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is limited. We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at minimum). Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context: WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE handlers. These are not easy to avoid. This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic. It is useful for all messages and architectures that support NMI. The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when leaving NMI context. It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the main ring buffer in a safe context. __printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer. Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with writers. There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other flushers. We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock. It would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use. It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe. The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven Rostedt. It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on architectures that call nmi_enter(). This is achieved by the new HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag. The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures. We need to clean up NMI handling there first. Let's do it separately. The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/327 [arnd@arndb.de: printk-nmi: use %zu format string for size_t] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: min_t->min - all types are size_t here] Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> [arm part] Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

powerpc/fsl: Remove FSL_SOC dependency from FSL_LBC This dependency led to kconfig errors when MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC was enabled, which selects FSL_LBC, in the absence of FSL_SOC, as reported in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/564405/ It was originally suggested to add an FSL_SOC dependency to MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC, but the FSL_SOC symbol has been a growing problem due to hardware being shared between PPC and ARM SoCs. Even though eLBC isn't found on ARM SoCs (the newer IFC is used instead), I don't want to expand the use of FSL_SOC for things other than functions exported by fsl_soc.c. In particular, it would be odd to add it to MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC and then remove it from MTD_NAND_FSL_IFC. Removing artificial dependencies also helps get compile-test exposure via randconfig, allyesconfig, etc. Reported-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Cc: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <oss@buserror.net>

powerpc/livepatch: Add live patching support on ppc64le Add the kconfig logic & assembly support for handling live patched functions. This depends on DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS, which in turn depends on the new -mprofile-kernel ftrace ABI, which is only supported currently on ppc64le. Live patching is handled by a special ftrace handler. This means it runs from ftrace_caller(). The live patch handler modifies the NIP so as to redirect the return from ftrace_caller() to the new patched function. However there is one particularly tricky case we need to handle. If a function A calls another function B, and it is known at link time that they share the same TOC, then A will not save or restore its TOC, and will call the local entry point of B. When we live patch B, we replace it with a new function C, which may not have the same TOC as A. At live patch time it's too late to modify A to do the TOC save/restore, so the live patching code must interpose itself between A and C, and do the TOC save/restore that A omitted. An additionaly complication is that the livepatch code can not create a stack frame in order to save the TOC. That is because if C takes > 8 arguments, or is varargs, A will have written the arguments for C in A's stack frame. To solve this, we introduce a "livepatch stack" which grows upward from the base of the regular stack, and is used to store the TOC & LR when calling a live patched function. When the patched function returns, we retrieve the real LR & TOC from the livepatch stack, restore them, and pop the livepatch "stack frame".

powerpc/Kconfig: Update config option based on page size. Currently on PPC64 changing kernel pagesize from 4K to 64K leaves FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER set to 13 - which produces a compile error. The error occurs because of the following constraint (from include/linux/mmzone.h) being violated: MAX_ORDER -1 + PAGESHIFT <= SECTION_SIZE_BITS. Expanding this out, we get: FORCE_MAX_ZONEBITS <= 25 - PAGESHIFT, which requires, for a 64K page, FORCE_MAX_ZONEBITS <= 9. Thus set max value of FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER for 64K pages to 9, and 4K pages to 13. Also, check the minimum value: In include/linux/huge_mm.h, we have the constraint HPAGE_PMD_ORDER < MAX_ORDER which expands out to: PTE_INDEX_SIZE < FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER. PTE_INDEX_SIZE is: 9 (4k hash or no hash 4K pgtable) or 8 (64K hash or no hash 64K pgtable). Thus a min value of 8 for 64K pages and 9 for 4K pages is reasonable. So, update the range of FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER from 9-64 to 8-9 for 64K pages and from 13-64 to 9-13 for 4K pages.

powerpc/ftrace: Add Kconfig & Make glue for mprofile-kernel Firstly we add logic to Kconfig to allow a user to choose if they want mprofile-kernel. This has to be user-selectable because only some current toolchains support it. If we enabled it unconditionally we would prevent some users from building the kernel entirely. Arguably it would be nice if we could detect if mprofile-kernel was available, and use it then. However that would violate the principle of least surprise because a user having choosen options such as live patching, would then see them quietly disabled at build time. We also make the user selectable option negative, ie. it disables when selected, so that allyesconfig continues to build on old toolchains. Once we've decided we do want to use mprofile-kernel, we then add a script which checks it actually works. That is because there are versions of gcc that accept the flag but don't generate correct code. Due to the way kconfig works, we can't error out when we detect a non-working toolchain. If we did a user would never be able to modify their config and run oldconfig - because the check would block oldconfig from running. Instead we emit a warning and add a bogus flag to CFLAGS so that the build will fail. Signed-off-by: Torsten Duwe <duwe@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc/mm: Add page soft dirty tracking User space checkpoint and restart tool (CRIU) needs the page's change to be soft tracked. This allows to do a pre checkpoint and then dump only touched pages. This is done by using a newly assigned PTE bit (_PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY) when the page is backed in memory, and a new _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit when the page is swapped out. To introduce a new PTE _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit value common to hash 4k and hash 64k pte, the bits already defined in hash-*4k.h should be shifted left by one. The _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit is dynamically put after the swap type in the swap pte. A check is added to ensure that the bit is not overwritten by _PAGE_HPTEFLAGS.

kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig.

powerpc/kernel: Enable seccomp filter This commit enables seccomp filter on powerpc, now that we have all the necessary pieces in place. To support seccomp's desire to modify the syscall return value under some circumstances, we use a different ABI to the ptrace ABI. That is we use r3 as the syscall return value, and orig_gpr3 is the first syscall parameter. This means the seccomp code, or a ptracer via SECCOMP_RET_TRACE, will see -ENOSYS preloaded in r3. This is identical to the behaviour on x86, and allows seccomp or the ptracer to either leave the -ENOSYS or change it to something else, as well as rejecting or not the syscall by modifying r0. If seccomp does not reject the syscall, we restore the register state to match what ptrace and audit expect, ie. r3 is the first syscall parameter again. We do this restore using orig_gpr3, which may have been modified by seccomp, which allows seccomp to modify the first syscall paramater and allow the syscall to proceed. We need to #ifdef the the additional handling of r3 for seccomp, so move it all out of line. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

EDAC: Cleanup atomic_scrub mess So first of all, this atomic_scrub() function's naming is bad. It looks like an atomic_t helper. Change it to edac_atomic_scrub(). The bigger problem is that this function is arch-specific and every new arch which doesn't necessarily need that functionality still needs to define it, otherwise EDAC doesn't compile. So instead of doing that and including arch-specific headers, have each arch define an EDAC_ATOMIC_SCRUB symbol which can be used in edac_mc.c for ifdeffery. Much cleaner. And we already are doing this with another symbol - EDAC_SUPPORT. This is also much cleaner than having CONFIG_EDAC enumerate all the arches which need/have EDAC support and drivers. This way I can kill the useless edac.h header in tile too.

mm: split ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, and x86. The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as well (mmap), and vice versa. Further details and a PoC of this attack is available here: http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR region: $ ./show_mmaps_pie 54859ccd6000-54859ccd7000 r-xp ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced6000-54859ced7000 r--p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced7000-54859ced8000 rw-p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 7f75be764000-7f75be91f000 r-xp ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75be91f000-7f75beb1f000 ---p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb1f000-7f75beb23000 r--p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb23000-7f75beb25000 rw-p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb25000-7f75beb2a000 rw-p ... 7f75beb2a000-7f75beb4d000 r-xp ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed45000-7f75bed46000 rw-p ... 7f75bed46000-7f75bed47000 r-xp ... 7f75bed47000-7f75bed4c000 rw-p ... 7f75bed4c000-7f75bed4d000 r--p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4d000-7f75bed4e000 rw-p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4e000-7f75bed4f000 rw-p ... 7fffb3741000-7fffb3762000 rw-p ...

[vdso] The change is to add a call the newly created arch_mmap_rnd() into the ELF loader for handling ET_DYN ASLR in a separate region from mmap ASLR, as was already done on s390.

mm: expose arch_mmap_rnd when available When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location, a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base. In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for describing this feature on architectures that support it (which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390 already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

powerpc: Add ppc64 hard lockup detector support The hard lockup detector uses a PMU event as a periodic NMI to detect if we are stuck (where stuck means no timer interrupts have occurred). Ben's rework of the ppc64 soft disable code has made ppc64 PMU exceptions a partial NMI. They can get disabled if an external interrupt comes in, but otherwise PMU interrupts will fire in interrupt disabled regions. We disable the hard lockup detector by default for a few reasons: - It breaks userspace event based branches on POWER8. - It is likely to produce false positives on KVM guests. - Since PMCs can only count to 2^31, counting cycles means we might take multiple PMU exceptions per second per hardware thread even if our hard lockup timeout is 10 seconds. It can be enabled via a boot option, or via procfs. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc: kill PPC_OF We have set CONFIG_PPC_OF to always 'y' in commit 0a498d96a332 ("powerpc: set CONFIG_PPC_OF=y always for ARCH=powerpc") nine years ago. And the arch/ppc also has gone away for many years. The OF functionality was also moved to a common place and be used by many archs. So it does make no sense to keep such a option in the current kernel. Just kill it.

powerpc: Use generic PIE randomization Back in 2009 we merged 501cb16d3cfd "Randomise PIEs", which added support for randomizing PIE (Position Independent Executable) binaries. That commit added randomize_et_dyn(), which correctly randomized the addresses, but failed to honor PF_RANDOMIZE. That means it was not possible to disable PIE randomization via the personality flag, or /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space. Since then there has been generic support for PIE randomization added to binfmt_elf.c, selectable via ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE. Enabling that allows us to drop randomize_et_dyn(), which means we start honoring PF_RANDOMIZE correctly. It also causes a fairly major change to how we layout PIE binaries. Currently we will place the binary at 512MB-520MB for 32 bit binaries, or 512MB-1.5GB for 64 bit binaries, eg: $ cat /proc/$$/maps 4e550000-4e580000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 4e580000-4e590000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 129813 /bin/dash 10014110000-10014140000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 3fffaa3f0000-3fffaa5a0000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fffaa5a0000-3fffaa5b0000 rw-p 001a0000 08:02 921 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/libc-2.19.so 3fffaa5c0000-3fffaa5d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 3fffaa5d0000-3fffaa5f0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] 3fffaa5f0000-3fffaa620000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3fffaa620000-3fffaa630000 rw-p 00020000 08:02 1246 /lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/ld-2.19.so 3ffffc340000-3ffffc370000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] With this commit applied we don't do any special randomisation for the binary, and instead rely on mmap randomisation.

powerpc: Disable RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST with PPC64 powerpc:allmodconfig has been failing for some time with the following error. arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages: arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1312: Error: attempt to move .org backwards make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1 A number of attempts to fix the problem by moving around code have been unsuccessful and resulted in failed builds for some configurations and the discovery of toolchain bugs. Fix the problem by disabling RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST builds instead. While this is less than perfect, it avoids substantial code changes which would otherwise be necessary just to make COMPILE_TEST builds happy and might have undesired side effects.

It wasn't selecting CONFIG_MEMORY. So we never built drivers/memory/fsl_ifc.o and so we have nothing to link the above symbols against. Since the goal of the original commit was to relocate the driver to an arch independent location, it only makes sense to relocate the Kconfig setting there as well. But that alone won't fix the build failure; for that we ensure whoever selects FSL_IFC also selects MEMORY.

powerpc: Add support for the optimised lockref implementation This commit adds the architecture support required to enable the optimised implementation of lockrefs. That's as simple as defining arch_spin_value_unlocked() and selecting the Kconfig option. We also define cmpxchg64_relaxed(), because the lockref code does not need the cmpxchg to have barrier semantics. Using Linus' test case[1] on one system I see a 4x improvement for the basic enablement, and a further 1.3x for cmpxchg64_relaxed(), for a total of 5.3x vs the baseline. On another system I see more like 2x improvement.

clk: mpc5xxx: switch to COMMON_CLK, retire PPC_CLOCK the setup before the change was - arch/powerpc/Kconfig had the PPC_CLOCK option, off by default - depending on the PPC_CLOCK option the arch/powerpc/kernel/clock.c file was built, which implements the clk.h API but always returns -ENOSYS unless a platform registers specific callbacks - the MPC52xx platform selected PPC_CLOCK but did not register any callbacks, thus all clk.h API calls keep resulting in -ENOSYS errors (which is OK, all peripheral drivers deal with the situation) - the MPC512x platform selected PPC_CLOCK and registered specific callbacks implemented in arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/clock.c, thus provided real support for the clock API - no other powerpc platform did select PPC_CLOCK the situation after the change is - the MPC512x platform implements the COMMON_CLK interface, and thus the PPC_CLOCK approach in arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/clock.c has become obsolete - the MPC52xx platform still lacks genuine support for the clk.h API while this is not a change against the previous situation (the error code returned from COMMON_CLK stubs differs but every call still results in an error) - with all references gone, the arch/powerpc/kernel/clock.c wrapper and the PPC_CLOCK option have become obsolete, as did the clk_interface.h header file the switch from PPC_CLOCK to COMMON_CLK is done for all platforms within the same commit such that multiplatform kernels (the combination of 512x and 52xx within one executable) keep working Cc: Mike Turquette <mturquette@linaro.org> Cc: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Signed-off-by: Gerhard Sittig <gsi@denx.de> Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de>

powerpc: Work around gcc miscompilation of __pa() on 64-bit On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of gcc as something like: addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least. To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator, and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add it on. (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.) CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

powerpc: split She math emulation into two parts For some SoC (such as the FSL BookE) even though there does have a hardware FPU, but not all floating point instructions are implemented. Unfortunately some versions of gcc do use these unimplemented instructions. Then we have to enable the math emulation to workaround this issue. It seems a little redundant to have the support to emulate all the floating point instructions in this case. So split the math emulation into two parts. One is for the SoC which doesn't have FPU at all and the other for the SoC which does have the hardware FPU and only need some special floating point instructions to be emulated.

PCI: remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI kconfig option Now that we have weak versions for each of the PCI MSI architecture functions, we can actually build the MSI support for all platforms, regardless of whether they provide or not architecture-specific versions of those functions. For this reason, the ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI hidden kconfig boolean becomes useless, and this patch gets rid of it.

consolidate per-arch stack overflow debugging options Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options. They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly differing help text. This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug to present the actual menu option. This removes a bunch of duplication and adds consistency across arches. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: H.

Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.h Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela, ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS. Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible. To this end, I've defined three new config bools: (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic mod_arch_specific struct. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are two arches that do this. With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file. Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

powerpc: Add denormalisation exception handling for POWER6/7 On POWER6 and POWER7 if the input operand to an instruction is a denormalised single precision binary floating point value we can take a denormalisation exception where it's expected that the hypervisor (HV=1) will fix up the inputs before the instruction is run. This adds code to handle this denormalisation exception for POWER6 and POWER7. It also add a CONFIG_PPC_DENORMALISATION option and sets it in pseries/ppc64_defconfig. This is useful on bare metal systems only. Based on patch from Milton Miller. Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

powerpc: select PPC_CLOCK unconditionally for FSL_SOC Freescale PowerPC SoCs share a number of IP blocks with Freescale ARM/IMX SoCs, FlexCAN, SSI, FEC, eSDHC, USB, etc. There are some effort consolidating those drivers to make them work for both architectures. One outstanding difference between two architectures is ARM/IMX will turn off module clocks during platform initialization for power saving and expects drivers manage clocks using clk API, while PowerPC mostly does not do that, and thus does not always build in clk API. Listing all those driver Kconfig options in "select PPC_CLOCK if" seems not scalable for long term maintenance, and could easily introduce Kconfig recursive dependency. This patch chooses to select PPC_CLOCK unconditionally for FSL_SOC to always build clk API for PowerPC in.

timers: Fixup the Kconfig consolidation fallout Sigh, I missed to check which architecture Kconfig files actually include the core Kconfig file. There are a few which did not. So we broke them. Instead of adding the includes to those, we are better off to move the include to init/Kconfig like we did already with irqs and others. This does not change anything for the architectures using the old style periodic timer mode. It just solves the build wreckage there. For those architectures which use the clock events infrastructure it moves the include of the core Kconfig file to "General setup" which is a way more logical place than having it at random locations specified by the architecture specific Kconfigs.

powerpc/47x: Kernel support for KEXEC This patch adds support for creating 1:1 mapping for the PPC_47x during a KEXEC. The implementation is similar to that of the PPC440x which is described here : http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/104323/ PPC_47x MMU : The 47x uses Unified TLB 1024 entries, with 4-way associative mapping (4 x 256 entries). The index to be used is calculated by the MMU by hashing the PID, EPN and TS. The software can choose to specify the way by setting bit 0(enable way select) and the way in bits 1-2 in the TLB Word 0. Implementation: The patch erases all the UTLB entries which includes the tlb covering the mapping for our code. The shadow TLB caches the mapping for the running code which helps us to continue the execution until we do isync/rfi. We then create a tmp mapping for the current code in the other address space (TS) and switch to it. Then we create a 1:1 mapping(EPN=RPN) for 0-2GiB in the original address space and switch to the new mapping. TODO: Add SMP support. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

[PATCH v3] ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscalls When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls. However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv() and shmat() expect arguments in different order. This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc, s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures, and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c. Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64 mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect. The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were not being properly handled.

powerpc: Rename mapping based RELOCATABLE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART for BookE The current implementation of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in BookE is based on mapping the page aligned kernel load address to KERNELBASE. This approach however is not enough for platforms, where the TLB page size is large (e.g, 256M on 44x). So we are renaming the RELOCATABLE used currently in BookE to DYNAMIC_MEMSTART to reflect the actual method. The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC32(BookE) based on processing of the dynamic relocations will be introduced in the later in the patch series. This change would allow the use of the old method of RELOCATABLE for platforms which can afford to enforce the page alignment (platforms with smaller TLB size).

Also, relocate for_each_mem_pfn_range() and helper from mm.h to memblock.h as page_alloc.c would no longer host an alternative implementation. This change is ultimately one to one mapping and shouldn't cause any observable difference; however, after the recent changes, there are some functions which now would fit memblock.c better than page_alloc.c and dependency on HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP instead of HAVE_MEMBLOCK doesn't make much sense on some of them.

This routine is required to change the idle handler on SMP systems.

powerpc: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP powerpc copied pci_iomap from generic code, probably to avoid pulling the rest of iomap.c in. Since that's in a separate file now, we can reuse the common implementation. The only difference is handling of nocache flag, that turns out to be done correctly by the generic code since arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h defines ioremap_nocache same as ioremap.

powerpc: Hugetlb for BookE Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors. This allows the kernel to use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with large memory footprints. Care should be taken when using this on FSL processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low (16-64) on current processors. The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g. Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated). This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for 64-bit BooKE.

Add Kconfig option ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

net: filter: BPF 'JIT' compiler for PPC64 An implementation of a code generator for BPF programs to speed up packet filtering on PPC64, inspired by Eric Dumazet's x86-64 version. Filter code is generated as an ABI-compliant function in module_alloc()'d mem with stackframe & prologue/epilogue generated if required (simple filters don't need anything more than an li/blr). The filter's local variables, M[], live in registers. Supports all BPF opcodes, although "complicated" loads from negative packet offsets (e.g. SKF_LL_OFF) are not yet supported. There are a couple of further optimisations left for future work; many-pass assembly with branch-reach reduction and a register allocator to push M[] variables into volatile registers would improve the code quality further. This currently supports big-endian 64-bit PowerPC only (but is fairly simple to port to PPC32 or LE!).

powerpc/ftrace: Implement raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC This patch implements the raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC and exports them for ftrace syscalls to use. To minimise reworking existing code, I slightly re-ordered the thread info flags such that the new TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT bit would still fit within the 16 bits of the andi. instruction's UI field. The instructions in question are in /arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_{32,64}.S to and the _TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A with the thread flags to see if system call tracing is enabled. In the case of 64bit PowerPC, arch_syscall_addr and arch_syscall_match_sym_name are overridden to allow ftrace syscalls to work given the unusual system call table structure and symbol names that start with a period.

irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

powerpc, hw_breakpoints: Implement hw_breakpoints for 64-bit server processors Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC 64-bit server (Book III S) processors. This allows access to a given location to be used as an event that can be counted or profiled by the perf_events subsystem. This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can also be used for process debugging via ptrace. When perf_event hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.

powerpc: Remove IOMMU_VMERGE config option The description says: Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously. This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back from *_map_sg(). Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here. It's out of date. Long ago, drivers didn't have a way to tell IOMMUs about their segment length limit (that is, the maximum segment length that they can handle). So IOMMUs merged as many segments as possible and gave too large segments to drivers. dma_get_max_seg_size() was introduced to solve the above problem. Device drives can use the API to tell IOMMU about the maximum segment length that they can handle. In addition, the default limit (64K) should be safe for everyone. So this config option seems to be unnecessary. Note that this config option just enables users to disable the virtual merging by default. Users can still disable the virtual merging by the boot parameter. Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

powerpc: Increase NR_IRQS Kconfig maximum to 32768 With dynamic irq descriptors the overhead of a large NR_IRQS is much lower than it used to be. With more MSI-X capable adapters and drivers exploiting multiple vectors we may as well allow the user to increase it beyond the current maximum of 512. 32768 seems large enough that we'd never have to bump it again (although I bet my prediction is horribly wrong).

sysfs/cpu: Add probe/release files Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2 of the patch. In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system. This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding and removing cpus to/from the system. This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts from writes to the sysfs files. The creation and use of these files is regulated by the CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the capability will have the files created.

powerpc: Make it possible to select hibernation on all PowerPCs Just as with kexec, hibernation may fail even on well-tested platforms: some PCI device, a driver of which doesn't play well with hibernation, is enough to break resuming. Hibernation code is not much platform dependent, and hiding features only because these were not verified on a particular hardware is counterproductive: we just prevent the features from being widely tested. For example, with this patch I just tested hibernation on a MPC83xx board, and it works quite well, modulo a few drivers that need some fixing. So, let's make it possible to select hibernation support for all PowerPCs, then let's wait for any possible bug reports, and actually fix (or just collect ;-) the bugs instead of hiding them. If some platforms really can't stand hibernation, we can make a blacklist, with proper comments why exactly hibernation doesn't work, whether it is possible to fix, and what needs to be done to fix it. CONFIG_HIBERNATION is still =n by default, so the commit doesn't change anything apart from ability to set it to =y. I'm not sure if EXPERIMENTAL dependency is needed, I'd rather not add it for a few reasons: 1) It doesn't matter much, for distro kernels user has no clue that some feature is experimental. Majority of defconfigs enable EXPERIMENTAL anyway (90 vs. 4, which, btw, means that EXPERIMENTAL is overused in Kconfigs); 2) EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing for features that change default behaviour of a kernel, while for hibernation user has to explicitly issue 'echo disk > /sys/power/state' to trigger any hibernation bugs; 3) Per init/Kconfig, EXPERIMENTAL is a good thing to scare and discourage users from 'widespread use of a feature', while we want to encourage that use.

powerpc: Increase NODES_SHIFT on 64bit from 4 to 8 Some System p configurations can already have more than 16 nodes so we need to increase NODES_SHIFT. I chose 256 to give us some room to grow in the future, although we can look at something smaller if the memory bloat is considered too much. Unless we clamp MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS we end up with 300kB of extra bloat in early_node_map in mm/page_alloc.c: < 6144 early_node_map > 307200 early_node_map due to: #if MAX_NUMNODES >= 32 /* If there can be many nodes, allow up to 50 holes per node */ #define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS (MAX_NUMNODES*50) #else /* By default, allow up to 256 distinct regions */ #define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS 256 Since our memory is mostly contiguous it seems reasonable to keep this at 256 for now. I also set 32bit to 32 to save space (is there any chance a 32bit system will have more than 32 discontiguous memory ranges?). Even with that fixed we have a few data structures that grow: < 896 bootmem_node_data > 14336 bootmem_node_data < 1280 node_devices > 20480 node_devices < 25088 kmalloc_caches > 59648 kmalloc_caches < 1632 hstates > 21792 hstates Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

powerpc: Add irqtrace support for 32-bit powerpc Based on initial work from: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org> Add the low level irq tracing hooks for 32-bit powerpc needed to enable full lockdep functionality. The approach taken to deal with the code in entry_32.S is that we don't trace all the transitions of MSR:EE when we just turn it off to peek at TI_FLAGS without races. Only when we are calling into C code or returning from exceptions with a state that have changed from what lockdep thinks. There's a little bugger though: If we take an exception that keeps interrupts enabled (such as an alignment exception) while interrupts are enabled, we will call trace_hardirqs_on() on the way back spurriously. Not a big deal, but to get rid of it would require remembering in pt_regs that the exception was one of the type that kept interrupts enabled which we don't know at this stage. (Well, we could test all cases for regs->trap but that sucks too much). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Tested-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

percpu: use dynamic percpu allocator as the default percpu allocator This patch makes most !CONFIG_HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA archs use dynamic percpu allocator. The first chunk is allocated using embedding helper and 8k is reserved for modules. This ensures that the new allocator behaves almost identically to the original allocator as long as static percpu variables are concerned, so it shouldn't introduce much breakage. s390 and alpha use custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() to work around addressing range limit the addressing model imposes. Unfortunately, this breaks if the address is specified using a variable, so for now, the two archs aren't converted. The following architectures are affected by this change. * sh * arm * cris * mips * sparc(32) * blackfin * avr32 * parisc (broken, under investigation) * m32r * powerpc(32) As this change makes the dynamic allocator the default one, CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA is replaced with its invert - CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA, which is added to yet-to-be converted archs. These archs implement their own setup_per_cpu_areas() and the conversion is not trivial. * powerpc(64) * sparc(64) * ia64 * alpha * s390 Boot and batch alloc/free tests on x86_32 with debug code (x86_32 doesn't use default first chunk initialization). Compile tested on sparc(32), powerpc(32), arm and alpha. Kyle McMartin reported that this change breaks parisc. The problem is still under investigation and he is okay with pushing this patch forward and fixing parisc later.

perf_counter: powerpc: Enable use of software counters on 32-bit powerpc This enables the perf_counter subsystem on 32-bit powerpc. Since we don't have any support for hardware counters on 32-bit powerpc yet, only software counters can be used. Besides selecting HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for 32-bit powerpc as well as 64-bit, the main thing this does is add an implementation of set_perf_counter_pending(). This needs to arrange for perf_counter_do_pending() to be called when interrupts are enabled. Rather than add code to local_irq_restore as 64-bit does, the 32-bit set_perf_counter_pending() generates an interrupt by setting the decrementer to 1 so that a decrementer interrupt will become pending in 1 or 2 timebase ticks (if a decrementer interrupt isn't already pending). When interrupts are enabled, timer_interrupt() will be called, and some new code in there calls perf_counter_do_pending(). We use a per-cpu array of flags to indicate whether we need to call perf_counter_do_pending() or not. This introduces a couple of new Kconfig symbols: PPC_HAVE_PMU_SUPPORT, which is selected by processor families for which we have hardware PMU support (currently only PPC64), and PPC_PERF_CTRS, which enables the powerpc-specific perf_counter back-end.

powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency. The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there), or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual address space. This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but grew its own fixes. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Revert "powerpc: Rework dma-noncoherent to use generic vmalloc layer" This reverts commit 33f00dcedb0e22cdb156a23632814fc580fcfcf8. While it was a good idea to try to use the mm/vmalloc.c allocator instead of our own (in fact, ours is itself a dup on an old variant of the vmalloc one), unfortunately, the approach is terminally busted since dma_alloc_coherent() can be called at interrupt time or in atomic contexts and there's little chances we'll make the code in mm/vmalloc.c cope with\ that :-( Until we can get the generic code to forbid that idiocy and fix all drivers abusing it, we pretty much have no choice but revert to our custom virtual space allocator. There's also a problem with SMP safety since freeing such mapping would require an IPI which cannot be done at interrupt time. However, right now, I don't think we support any platform that is both SMP and has non-coherent DMA (don't laugh, I know such things do exist !) so we can sort that out later.

Move dtc and libfdt sources from arch/powerpc/boot to scripts/dtc The powerpc kernel always requires an Open Firmware like device tree to supply device information. On systems without OF, this comes from a flattened device tree blob. This blob is usually generated by dtc, a tool which compiles a text description of the device tree into the flattened format used by the kernel. Sometimes, the bootwrapper makes small changes to the pre-compiled device tree blob (e.g. filling in the size of RAM). To do this it uses the libfdt library. Because these are only used on powerpc, the code for both these tools is included under arch/powerpc/boot (these were imported and are periodically updated from the upstream dtc tree). However, the microblaze architecture, currently being prepared for merging to mainline also uses dtc to produce device tree blobs. A few other archs have also mentioned some interest in using dtc. Therefore, this patch moves dtc and libfdt from arch/powerpc into scripts, where it can be used by any architecture. The vast bulk of this patch is a literal move, the rest is adjusting the various Makefiles to use dtc and libfdt correctly from their new locations.

powerpc/44x: Support for 256KB PAGE_SIZE This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards. For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume 2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g. RAID). Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.). With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively. Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB, one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP. Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows: --- binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c.orig +++ binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c -#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x10000 +#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x40000 One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN). Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/19/20 Signed-off-by: Yuri Tikhonov <yur@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Ilya Yanok <yanok@emcraft.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

powerpc/fsl-booke: Allow larger CAM sizes than 256 MB The code that maps kernel low memory would only use page sizes up to 256 MB. On E500v2 pages up to 4 GB are supported. However, a page must be aligned to a multiple of the page's size. I.e. 256 MB pages must aligned to a 256 MB boundary. This was enforced by a requirement that the physical and virtual addresses of the start of lowmem be aligned to 256 MB. Clearly requiring 1GB or 4GB alignment to allow pages of that size isn't acceptable. To solve this, I simply have adjust_total_lowmem() take alignment into account when it decides what size pages to use. Give it PAGE_OFFSET = 0x7000_0000, PHYSICAL_START = 0x3000_0000, and 2GB of RAM, and it will map pages like this: PA 0x3000_0000 VA 0x7000_0000 Size 256 MB PA 0x4000_0000 VA 0x8000_0000 Size 1 GB PA 0x8000_0000 VA 0xC000_0000 Size 256 MB PA 0x9000_0000 VA 0xD000_0000 Size 256 MB PA 0xA000_0000 VA 0xE000_0000 Size 256 MB Because the lowmem mapping code now takes alignment into account, PHYSICAL_ALIGN can be lowered from 256 MB to 64 MB. Even lower might be possible. The lowmem code will work down to 4 kB but it's possible some of the boot code will fail before then. Poor alignment will force small pages to be used, which combined with the limited number of TLB1 pages available, will result in very little memory getting mapped. So alignments less than 64 MB probably aren't very useful anyway. Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho <tpiepho@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

ftrace: disable dynamic ftrace for all archs that use daemon The ftrace daemon is complex and can cause nasty races if something goes wrong. Since it affects all of the kernel, this patch disables dynamic ftrace from any arch that depends on the daemon. Until the archs are ported over to the new MCOUNT_RECORD method, I am disabling dynamic ftrace from them. Note: I am leaving in the arch/<arch>/kernel/ftrace.c code alone since that can be used when the arch is ported to MCOUNT_RECORD. To port the arch to MCOUNT_RECORD, the scripts/recordmcount.pl needs to be updated. I will make that easier to do for 2.6.29. For 28, we will keep the archs disabled.

powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernel This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234) is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels. The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter. CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and kdump kernel. This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. Reading will return the current state. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space task in a simple scenario. It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain "FREEZING" until one of these things happens: 1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to the freezer.state file 2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal and returns EIO) 3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN" state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at, since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables, so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.) The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr), where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns 0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running at), which necessitated a few adjustments. This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet). With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical address 0 and run there. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This moves a couple of flag checks around in the ioremap implementations of arch/powerpc.

This is useful for applications like kmap_atomic, PCI config that is done via direct memory map, kexec/kdump. We got ride of CONFIG_HIGHMEM_START as we can now determine a more optimal location for PKMAP_BASE based on where the fixmap addresses start and working back from there. Additionally, the kmap code in asm-powerpc/highmem.h always had debug enabled. Moved to using CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM to determine if we should have the extra debug checking.

[POWERPC] 85xx: Add support for relocatable kernel (and booting at non-zero) Added support to allow an 85xx kernel to be run from a non-zero physical address (useful for cooperative asymmetric multiprocessing situations and kdump). The support can be configured at compile time by setting CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET, CONFIG_KERNEL_START, and CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as desired. Alternatively, the kernel build can set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. Setting this config option causes the kernel to determine at runtime the physical addresses of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET and CONFIG_KERNEL_START. If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, then CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START has no meaning. However, CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START will always be used to set the LOAD program header physical address field in the resulting ELF image. Currently we are limited to running at a physical address that is a multiple of 256M. This is due to how we map TLBs to cover lowmem. This should be fixed to allow 64M or maybe even 16M alignment in the future. It is considered an error to try and run a kernel at a non-aligned physical address. All the magic for this support is accomplished by proper initialization of the kernel memory subsystem and use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET. The use of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET only affects normal memory and not IO mappings. ioremap uses map_page and isn't affected by ARCH_PFN_OFFSET. /dev/mem continues to allow access to any physical address in the system regardless of how CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is set.

On x86/ia64 system memory is represented in /proc/iomem. On powerpc, we don't show system memory as IO resource in /proc/iomem - instead it's maintained in /proc/device-tree. This provides a way for an architecture to provide its own walk_memory_resource() function. On powerpc, the memory region is small (16MB), contiguous and non-overlapping.

[POWERPC] bootwrapper: Build multiple cuImages Currently, the kernel uses CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE to wrap a kernel image with a fdt blob which means for any given configuration only one dts file can be selected and so support for only one board can be built This moves the selection of the default .dts file out of the kernel config and into the bootwrapper makefile. The makefile chooses which images to build based on the kernel config and the dts source file name is taken directly from the image name. For example "cuImage.ebony" will use "ebony.dts" as the device tree source file. In addition, this patch allows a specific image to be requested from the command line by adding "cuImage.%" and "treeImage.%" targets to the list of valid built targets in arch/powerpc/Makefile. This allows the default dts selection to be overridden. Another advantage to this change is it allows a single defconfig to be supplied for all boards using the same chip family and only differing in the device tree. Important note: This patch adds two new zImage targets; zImage.dtb.% and zImage.dtb.initrd.% for zImages with embedded dtb files. Currently there are 5 platforms which require this: ps3, ep405, mpc885ads, ep88xc, adder875-redboot and ep8248e. This patch *changes the zImage filenames* for those platforms. ie. 'zImage.ps3' is now 'zImage.dtb.ps3'. This new zImage.dtb targets were added so that the .dts file could be part of the dependancies list for building them.

[POWERPC] Provide a way to protect 4k subpages when using 64k pages Using 64k pages on 64-bit PowerPC systems makes life difficult for emulators that are trying to emulate an ISA, such as x86, which use a smaller page size, since the emulator can no longer use the MMU and the normal system calls for controlling page protections. Of course, the emulator can emulate the MMU by checking and possibly remapping the address for each memory access in software, but that is pretty slow. This provides a facility for such programs to control the access permissions on individual 4k sub-pages of 64k pages. The idea is that the emulator supplies an array of protection masks to apply to a specified range of virtual addresses. These masks are applied at the level where hardware PTEs are inserted into the hardware page table based on the Linux PTEs, so the Linux PTEs are not affected. Note that this new mechanism does not allow any access that would otherwise be prohibited; it can only prohibit accesses that would otherwise be allowed. This new facility is only available on 64-bit PowerPC and only when the kernel is configured for 64k pages. The masks are supplied using a new subpage_prot system call, which takes a starting virtual address and length, and a pointer to an array of protection masks in memory. The array has a 32-bit word per 64k page to be protected; each 32-bit word consists of 16 2-bit fields, for which 0 allows any access (that is otherwise allowed), 1 prevents write accesses, and 2 or 3 prevent any access. Implicit in this is that the regions of the address space that are protected are switched to use 4k hardware pages rather than 64k hardware pages (on machines with hardware 64k page support). In fact the whole process is switched to use 4k hardware pages when the subpage_prot system call is used, but this could be improved in future to switch only the affected segments. The subpage protection bits are stored in a 3 level tree akin to the page table tree. The top level of this tree is stored in a structure that is appended to the top level of the page table tree, i.e., the pgd array. Since it will often only be 32-bit addresses (below 4GB) that are protected, the pointers to the first four bottom level pages are also stored in this structure (each bottom level page contains the protection bits for 1GB of address space), so the protection bits for addresses below 4GB can be accessed with one fewer loads than those for higher addresses.

[POWERPC] 4xx: PLB to PCI Express support This adds to the previous 2 patches the support for the 4xx PCI Express cells as found in the 440SPe revA, revB and 405EX. Unfortunately, due to significant differences between these, and other interesting "features" of those pieces of HW, the code isn't as simple as it is for PCI and PCI-X and some of the functions differ significantly between the 3 implementations. Thus, not only this code can only support those 3 implementations for now and will refuse to operate on any other, but there are added ifdef's to avoid the bloat of building a fairly large amount of code on platforms that don't need it. Also, this code currently only supports fully initializing root complex nodes, not endpoint. Some more code will have to be lifted from the arch/ppc implementation to add the endpoint support, though it's mostly differences in memory mapping, and the question on how to represent endpoint mode PCI in the device-tree is thus open. Many thanks to Stefan Roese for testing & fixing up the 405EX bits !

Fix boot problem with iSeries lacking hugepage support Ordinarily the size of a pageblock is determined at compile-time based on the hugepage size. On PPC64, the hugepage size is determined at runtime based on what is supported by the machine. With legacy machines such as iSeries that do not support hugepages, HPAGE_SHIFT is 0. This results in pageblock_order being set to -PAGE_SHIFT and a crash results shortly afterwards. This patch adds a function to select a sensible value for pageblock order by default when HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE is set. It checks that HPAGE_SHIFT is a sensible value before using the hugepage size; if it is not MAX_ORDER-1 is used. This is a fix for 2.6.24. Credit goes to Stephen Rothwell for identifying the bug and testing candidate patches. Additional credit goes to Andy Whitcroft for spotting a problem with respects to IA-64 before releasing. Additional credit to David Gibson for testing with the libhugetlbfs test suite.

Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times.

The implementation is copied from arch/ppc to resolve this issue.

This was obstructing SLUB on PowerPC, which uses kmem_caches for its pagetables. So convert its pte level to use normal gfp pages (whereas pmd, pud and 64k-page pgd want partpages, so continue to use kmem_caches for pmd, pud and pgd).

[POWERPC] Introduce address space "slices" The basic issue is to be able to do what hugetlbfs does but with different page sizes for some other special filesystems; more specifically, my need is: - Huge pages - SPE local store mappings using 64K pages on a 4K base page size kernel on Cell - Some special 4K segments in 64K-page kernels for mapping a dodgy type of powerpc-specific infiniband hardware that requires 4K MMU mappings for various reasons I won't explain here. The main issues are: - To maintain/keep track of the page size per "segment" (as we can only have one page size per segment on powerpc, which are 256MB divisions of the address space). - To make sure special mappings stay within their allotted "segments" (including MAP_FIXED crap) - To make sure everybody else doesn't mmap/brk/grow_stack into a "segment" that is used for a special mapping Some of the necessary mechanisms to handle that were present in the hugetlbfs code, but mostly in ways not suitable for anything else. The patch relies on some changes to the generic get_unmapped_area() that just got merged. It still hijacks hugetlb callbacks here or there as the generic code hasn't been entirely cleaned up yet but that shouldn't be a problem. So what is a slice ? Well, I re-used the mechanism used formerly by our hugetlbfs implementation which divides the address space in "meta-segments" which I called "slices". The division is done using 256MB slices below 4G, and 1T slices above. Thus the address space is divided currently into 16 "low" slices and 16 "high" slices. (Special case: high slice 0 is the area between 4G and 1T). Doing so simplifies significantly the tracking of segments and avoids having to keep track of all the 256MB segments in the address space. While I used the "concepts" of hugetlbfs, I mostly re-implemented everything in a more generic way and "ported" hugetlbfs to it. Slices can have an associated page size, which is encoded in the mmu context and used by the SLB miss handler to set the segment sizes. The hash code currently doesn't care, it has a specific check for hugepages, though I might add a mechanism to provide per-slice hash mapping functions in the future. The slice code provide a pair of "generic" get_unmapped_area() (bottomup and topdown) functions that should work with any slice size. There is some trickiness here so I would appreciate people to have a look at the implementation of these and let me know if I got something wrong.

[POWERPC] spufs: remove need for struct page for SPEs This patch removes the need for struct page for SPE local store and registers from spufs. It also makes the locking much more obvious and no longer relying on the truncate logic black magic for protecting against races between unmap_mapping_range() and new pages faulted in. It does so by switching to a nopfn() handler and using the new vm_insert_pfn() to setup the PTEs itself while holding a lock on the SPE.

[PATCH] Set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for arches with GENERIC_ISA_DMA As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA channel management. Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to provide memory below 16M. So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA. Undo the modifications to mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig. Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be switched off. It can only be switched off if we know that all devices supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and IA64/Altix). In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory (like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that call. In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

Fix Maple PATA IRQ assignment. On the Maple board, the AMD8111 IDE is in legacy mode... except that it appears on IRQ 20 instead of IRQ 15. For drivers/ide this was handled by the architecture's "pci_get_legacy_ide_irq()" function, but in libata we just hard-code the numbers 14 and 15. This patch provides asm-powerpc/libata-portmap.h which maps the IRQ as appropriate, having added a pci_dev argument to the ATA_{PRIM,SECOND}ARY_IRQ macros. There's probably a better way to do this -- especially if we observe that the _only_ case in which this seemingly-generic "pci_get_legacy_ide_irq()" function returns anything other than 14 and 15 for primary and secondary respectively is the case of the AMD8111 on the Maple board -- couldn't we handle that with a special case in the pata_amd driver, or perhaps with a PCI quirk for Maple to switch it into native mode during early boot and assign resources properly?

[PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel This facility provides three entry points: ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32 ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64 These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data: int do_something(long q) { ...; y = ilog2(x) ...; } Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values: unsigned n = ilog2(27); When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error: initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as unsigned. When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

[POWERPC] Add support for FP emulation for the e300c2 core The e300c2 has no FPU. Its MSR[FP] is grounded to zero. If an attempt is made to execute a floating point instruction (including floating-point load, store, or move instructions), the e300c2 takes a floating-point unavailable interrupt. This patch adds support for FP emulation on the e300c2 by declaring a new CPU_FTR_FP_TAKES_FPUNAVAIL, where FP unavail interrupts are intercepted and redirected to the ProgramCheck exception path for correct emulation handling. (If we run out of CPU_FTR bits we could look to reclaim this bit by adding support to test the cpu_user_features for PPC_FEATURE_HAS_FPU instead) It adds a nop to the exception path for 32-bit processors with a FPU.

[POWERPC] ps3: multiplatform build fixes A few code paths need to check whether or not they are running on the PS3's LV1 hypervisor before making hcalls. This introduces a new firmware feature bit for this, FW_FEATURE_PS3_LV1. Now when both PS3 and IBM_CELL_BLADE are enabled, but not PSERIES, FW_FEATURE_PS3_LV1 and FW_FEATURE_LPAR get enabled at compile time, which is a bug. The same problem can also happen for (PPC_ISERIES && !PPC_PSERIES && PPC_SOMETHING_ELSE). In order to solve this, I introduce a new CONFIG_PPC_NATIVE option that is set when at least one platform is selected that can run without a hypervisor and then turns the firmware feature check into a run-time option. The new cell oprofile support that was recently merged does not work on hypervisor based platforms like the PS3, therefore make it depend on PPC_CELL_NATIVE instead of PPC_CELL. This may change if we get oprofile support for PS3. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com>

[POWERPC] Allow hooking of PCI MMIO & PIO accessors on 64 bits This patch reworks the way iSeries hooks on PCI IO operations (both MMIO and PIO) and provides a generic way for other platforms to do so (we have need to do that for various other platforms). While reworking the IO ops, I ended up doing some spring cleaning in io.h and eeh.h which I might want to split into 2 or 3 patches (among others, eeh.h had a lot of useless stuff in it). A side effect is that EEH for PIO should work now (it used to pass IO ports down to the eeh address check functions which is bogus). Also, new are MMIO "repeat" ops, which other archs like ARM already had, and that we have too now: readsb, readsw, readsl, writesb, writesw, writesl. In the long run, I might also make EEH use the hooks instead of wrapping at the toplevel, which would make things even cleaner and relegate EEH completely in platforms/iseries, but we have to measure the performance impact there (though it's really only on MMIO reads) Since I also need to hook on ioremap, I shuffled the functions a bit there. I introduced ioremap_flags() to use by drivers who want to pass explicit flags to ioremap (and it can be hooked). The old __ioremap() is still there as a low level and cannot be hooked, thus drivers who use it should migrate unless they know they want the low level version. The patch "arch provides generic iomap missing accessors" (should be number 4 in this series) is a pre-requisite to provide full iomap API support with this patch.

[POWERPC] Remove todc code from ARCH=powerpc Apparently we've copied the todc drivers, for various RTCs used in embedded machines from ARCH=ppc to ARCH=powerpc, despite the fact that it's never used in the latter. This patch removes it. If we ever need these drivers (which we probably shouldn't now the RTC class stuff is in), we can transfer them one by one from ARCH=ppc, removing from the hideous abomination which is the todc "infrastructure".

[POWERPC] Add QUICC Engine (QE) infrastructure Add QUICC Engine (QE) configuration, header files, and QE management and library code that are used by QE devices drivers. Includes Leo's modifications up to, and including, the platform_device to of_device adaptation: "The series of patches add generic QE infrastructure called qe_lib, and MPC8360EMDS board support. Qe_lib is used by QE device drivers such as ucc_geth driver. This version updates QE interrupt controller to use new irq mapping mechanism, addresses all the comments received with last submission and includes some style fixes. v2: Change to use device tree for BCSR and MURAM; Remove I/O port interrupt handling code as it is not generic enough. v3: Address comments from Kumar; Update definition of several device tree nodes; Copyright style change." In addition, the following changes have been made: o removed typedefs o uint -> u32 conversions o removed following defines: QE_SIZEOF_BD, BD_BUFFER_ARG, BD_BUFFER_CLEAR, BD_BUFFER, BD_STATUS_AND_LENGTH_SET, BD_STATUS_AND_LENGTH, and BD_BUFFER_SET because they hid sizeof/in_be32/out_be32 operations from the reader. o fixed qe_snums_init() serial num assignment to use a const array o made CONFIG_UCC_FAST select UCC_SLOW o reduced NR_QE_IC_INTS from 128 to 64 o remove _IO_BASE, etc. defines (not used) o removed irrelevant comments, added others to resemble removed BD_ defines o realigned struct definitions in headers o various other style fixes including things like pinMask -> pin_mask o fixed a ton of whitespace issues o marked ioregs as __be32/__be16 o removed platform_device code and redundant get_qe_base() o removed redundant comments o added cpu_relax() to qe_reset o uncasted all get_property() assignments o eliminated unneeded casts o eliminated immrbar_phys_to_virt (not used) Signed-off-by: Li Yang <leoli@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Shlomi Gridish <gridish@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

[PATCH] Kprobes: Make kprobe modules more portable In an effort to make kprobe modules more portable, here is a patch that: o Introduces the "symbol_name" field to struct kprobe. The symbol->address resolution now happens in the kernel in an architecture agnostic manner. 64-bit powerpc users no longer have to specify the ".symbols" o Introduces the "offset" field to struct kprobe to allow a user to specify an offset into a symbol. o The legacy mechanism of specifying the kprobe.addr is still supported. However, if both the kprobe.addr and kprobe.symbol_name are specified, probe registration fails with an -EINVAL. o The symbol resolution code uses kallsyms_lookup_name(). So CONFIG_KPROBES now depends on CONFIG_KALLSYMS o Apparantly kprobe modules were the only legitimate out-of-tree user of the kallsyms_lookup_name() EXPORT. Now that the symbol resolution happens in-kernel, remove the EXPORT as suggested by Christoph Hellwig o Modify tcp_probe.c that uses the kprobe interface so as to make it work on multiple platforms (in its earlier form, the code wouldn't work, say, on powerpc) Signed-off-by: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

[POWERPC] Support for "weird" MPICs and fixup mpc7448_hpc2 This adds a new hardware information table for mpic. This enables the mpic code to deal with mpic controllers with different register layouts and hardware behaviours. This introduces CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD. For boards with non standard mpic controllers, select CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD and add its hardware information in the mpic_infos[] array. TSI108/109 PIC takes the first index of weird hardware information table. :) The table can be extended. The Tsi108/109 PIC looks like standard OpenPIC but, in fact, is different in register mapping and behavior. The patch does not affect the behavior of standard mpic. If CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD is not defined, the code is essentially identical to the current code. [benh@kernel.crashing.org: This patch is a slightly cleaned up version of Zang Roy's support for the TSI108 MPIC variant.

powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap mode We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

[PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFT Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5 NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy. SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's number. This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary. On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2 config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It would be simpler.

powerpc: Implement accurate task and CPU time accounting This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit powerpc kernels. Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode. We also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts accurately. This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. If that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before. To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase on other machines on * each entry to the kernel from usermode * each exit to usermode * transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq context in kernel mode * context switches. On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time). Unfortunately, since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment. This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers, i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc. This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(), times(), etc. Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a second) when reported to userspace. Some precision is therefore lost but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal accumulation is at full precision. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

In addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well, approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations. The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify them in a later patch. For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a later patch.
