selftests/powerpc/dscr: Improve DSCR explicit random test case The tests currently have a single writer thread updating the system DSCR with a 1/1000 chance looped only 100 times. So only around one in 10 runs actually do anything. * Add multiple threads to the dscr_explicit_random_test case. * Use a barrier to make all the threads start work as simultaneously as possible. * Use a rwlock and make all threads have a reasonable chance to write to the DSCR on each iteration. PTHREAD_RWLOCK_PREFER_WRITER_NONRECURSIVE_NP is used to prevent writers from starving while all the other threads keep reading. Logging the reads/writes shows a decent mix across the whole test. * Allow all threads a chance to write. * Make the chance of writing more likely.

selftests/powerpc/dscr: Add lockstep test cases to DSCR explicit tests Add new cases to the relevant tests that use explicitly synchronized threads to test the behaviour across context switches with less randomness. By locking the participants to the same CPU we guarantee a context switch occurs each time they make progress, which is a likely failure point if the kernel is not tracking the thread local DSCR correctly. The random case is left in to keep exercising potential edge cases.

selftests/powerpc: Don't run DSCR tests on old systems The DSCR tests fail on systems that don't have DSCR, so check for the DSCR in hwcap and skip if it's not present. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200819015727.1977134-5-mpe@ellerman.id.au

selftests/powerpc: Add test for explicitly changing DSCR value This patch adds a test which modifies the DSCR using mtspr instruction and verifies the change using mfspr instruction. It uses both the privilege state SPR as well as the problem state SPR for the purpose.
