powerpc: Drop zalloc_maybe_bootmem() The only callers of zalloc_maybe_bootmem() are PCI setup routines. These used to be called early during boot before slab setup, and also during runtime due to hotplug. But commit 5537fcb319d0 ("powerpc/pci: Add ppc_md.discover_phbs()") moved the boot-time calls later, after slab setup, meaning there's no longer any need for zalloc_maybe_bootmem(), kzalloc() can be used in all cases.

powerpc: Move C prototypes out of asm-prototypes.h We originally added asm-prototypes.h in commit 42f5b4cacd78 ("powerpc: Introduce asm-prototypes.h"). It's purpose was for prototypes of C functions that are only called from asm, in order to fix sparse warnings about missing prototypes. A few months later Nick added a different use case in commit 4efca4ed05cb ("kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") for C prototypes for exported asm functions. This is basically the inverse of our original usage. Since then we've added various prototypes to asm-prototypes.h for both reasons, meaning we now need to unstitch it all. Dispatch prototypes of C functions into relevant headers and keep only the prototypes for functions defined in assembly. For the time being, leave prom_init() there because moving it into asm/prom.h or asm/setup.h conflicts with drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/bios/shadowrom.o This will be fixed later by untaggling asm/pci.h and asm/prom.h or by renaming the function in shadowrom.c Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/62d46904eca74042097acf4cb12c175e3067f3d1.1646413435.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu

powerpc/64s: flush L1D after user accesses IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache after user accesses. This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

For now this implements the zeroth scv vector 'scv 0', as identical to 'sc' system calls, with the exception that LR is not preserved, nor are volatile CR registers, and error is not indicated with CR0[SO], but by returning a negative errno. rfscv is implemented to return from scv type system calls. It can not be used to return from sc system calls because those are defined to preserve LR. getpid syscall throughput on POWER9 is improved by 26% (428 to 318 cycles), largely due to reducing mtmsr and mtspr.

powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections This stops us from doing code patching in init sections after they've been freed. In this chain: kvm_guest_init() -> kvm_use_magic_page() -> fault_in_pages_readable() -> __get_user() -> __get_user_nocheck() -> barrier_nospec(); We have a code patching location at barrier_nospec() and kvm_guest_init() is an init function. This whole chain gets inlined, so when we free the init section (hence kvm_guest_init()), this code goes away and hence should no longer be patched. We seen this as userspace memory corruption when using a memory checker while doing partition migration testing on powervm (this starts the code patching post migration via /sys/kernel/mobility/migration). In theory, it could also happen when using /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/barrier_nospec.

powerpc/64s: Add support for RFI flush of L1-D cache On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to guest. This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other mechanisms on those CPUs. The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the address of a subsequent speculatively executed load. In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1, because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for hypervisor vs guest. In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D. If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement flush in software. For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at boot if the hypervisor tells us to. In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc. Many thanks to all of them.

That commit tried to fix problems with panic on powerpc in certain circumstances, where some output from the generic panic code was being dropped. Unfortunately, it breaks things worse in other circumstances. In particular when running a PAPR guest, it will now attempt to reboot instead of informing the hypervisor (KVM or PowerVM) that the guest has crashed. The crash notification is important to some virtualization management layers. Revert it for now until we can come up with a better solution.

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: Do not call ppc_md.panic in fadump panic notifier If fadump is not registered, and no other crash or debug handlers are registered, the powerpc panic handler stops the guest before the generic panic code can push out debug information to the console. Currently, system reset injection causes the guest to silently stop. Stop calling ppc_md.panic in the panic notifier. crash_fadump already does rtas_os_term() to terminate the guest if fadump is registered. Remove ppc_md.panic. Move fadump panic notifier into fadump code.

powerpc: Replace mem_init_done with slab_is_available() We have a powerpc specific global called mem_init_done which is "set on boot once kmalloc can be called". But that's not *quite* true. We set it at the bottom of mem_init(), and rely on the fact that mm_init() calls kmem_cache_init() immediately after that, and nothing is running in parallel. So replace it with the generic and 100% correct slab_is_available(). Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

powerpc: Clean up panic_timeout usage Default CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT to 180 seconds on powerpc. The pSeries continue to set the timeout to 10 seconds at run-time. Thus, there's a small window where we don't have the correct value on pSeries, but if this is only run-time discoverable we don't have a better option. In any case, if the user changes the default setting of 180 seconds, we honor that user setting.

powerpc: Change memory_limit from phys_addr_t to unsigned long long There are some device-tree nodes, whose values are of type phys_addr_t. The phys_addr_t is variable sized based on the CONFIG_PHSY_T_64BIT. Change these to a fixed unsigned long long for consistency. This patch does the change only for memory_limit. The following is a list of such variables which need the change: 1) kernel_end, crashk_size - in arch/powerpc/kernel/machine_kexec.c 2) (struct resource *)crashk_res.start - We could export a local static variable from machine_kexec.c. Changing the above values might break the kexec-tools. So, I will fix kexec-tools first to handle the different sized values and then change the above.
