powerpc: Rely on generic definition of hugepd_t and is_hugepd when unused CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HUGEPD is used to tell core mm when huge page directories are used. When they are not used, no need to provide hugepd_t or is_hugepd(), just rely on the core mm fallback definition. For that, change core mm behaviour so that CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HUGEPD is used instead of indirect is_hugepd macro existence. powerpc being the only user of huge page directories, there is no impact on other architectures.

powerpc/32: Don't use a struct based type for pte_t Long time ago we had a config item called STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS to build the kernel with pte_t defined as a structure in order to perform additional build checks or build it with pte_t defined as a simple type in order to get simpler generated code. Commit 670eea924198 ("powerpc/mm: Always use STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS") made the struct based definition the only one, considering that the generated code was similar in both cases. That's right on ppc64 because the ABI is such that the content of a struct having a single simple type element is passed as register, but on ppc32 such a structure is passed via the stack like any structure. Simple test function: pte_t test(pte_t pte) { return pte; } Before this patch we get c00108ec <test>: c00108ec: 81 24 00 00 lwz r9,0(r4) c00108f0: 91 23 00 00 stw r9,0(r3) c00108f4: 4e 80 00 20 blr So, for PPC32, restore the simple type behaviour we got before commit 670eea924198, but instead of adding a config option to activate type check, do it when __CHECKER__ is set so that type checking is performed by 'sparse' and provides feedback like: arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:466:16: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different base types) arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:466:16: expected unsigned long arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c:466:16: got struct pte_t [usertype] x With this patch we now get c0010890 <test>: c0010890: 4e 80 00 20 blr Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> [mpe: Define STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS rather than repeating the condition] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/c904599f33aaf6bb7ee2836a9ff8368509e0d78d.1631887042.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

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/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. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". 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). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. 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/mm: Ensure cpumask update is ordered There is no guarantee that the various isync's involved with the context switch will order the update of the CPU mask with the first TLB entry for the new context being loaded by the HW. Be safe here and add a memory barrier to order any subsequent load/store which may bring entries into the TLB. The corresponding barrier on the other side already exists as pte updates use pte_xchg() which uses __cmpxchg_u64 which has a sync after the atomic operation.

This patch series update hugepd format such that it is looked at as __be64 value in big endian page table config. This patch also switch hugepd_t.pd from signed long to unsigned long. I did update the FSL hugepd_ok check to check for the top bit instead of checking > 0.

powerpc/mm: Add pte_xchg() helper We have five locations in 64-bit hash MMU code that do a cmpxchg() of a PTE. Currently doing it inline OK, but in a future patch we will be converting the PTEs to __be64 in some configs. In that case we will need casts at every cmpxchg() site in order to keep sparse happy. So move the logic into a helper, this is a reasonably nice cleanup on its own. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
