On PA-Semi firmware, the instance-to-package callback doesn't seem to be implemented. We didn't check for error, however, thus subsequently passed the -1 value returned into stdout_node to thins like prom_getprop etc... Thus caused the firmware to load values around 0 (physical) internally as node structures. It somewhat "worked" as long as we had a NULL in the right place (address 8) at the beginning of the kernel, we didn't "see" the bug. But commit 5c0484e2 "powerpc: Endian safe trampoline" changed the kernel entry point causing that old bug to now cause a crash early during boot. This fixes booting on PA-Semi board by properly checking the return value from instance-to-package.

Commit 5c0484e2 ('powerpc: Endian safe trampoline') resulted in losing proper alignment of the spinlock variables used when booting secondary CPUs, causing some quite odd issues with failing to boot on PA Semi-based systems. This showed itself on ppc64_defconfig, but not on pasemi_defconfig, so it had gone unnoticed when I initially tested the LE patch set. Fix is to add explicit alignment instead of relying on good luck. :) [ It appears that there is a different issue with PA Semi systems however this fix is definitely correct so applying anyway -- BenH ] Fixes: 5c0484e2 ('powerpc: Endian safe trampoline') Reported-by: Christian Zigotzky <chzigotzky@xenosoft.de> Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67811Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

p_end is an 8 byte value embedded in the text section. This means it is only 4 byte aligned when it should be 8 byte aligned. Fix this by adding an explicit alignment.

The powerpc 64-bit __copy_tofrom_user() function uses shifts to handle unaligned invocations. However, these shifts were designed for big-endian systems: On little-endian systems, they must shift in the opposite direction. This commit relies on the C preprocessor to insert the correct shifts into the assembly code. [ This is a rare but nasty LE issue. Most of the time we use the POWER7 optimised __copy_tofrom_user_power7 loop, but when it hits an exception we fall back to the base __copy_tofrom_user loop. - Anton ] Signed-off-by: Paul E.

In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1) is valid when coming from the kernel. If it's not valid, we die but with a nice oops message. Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we check to see if the stack pointer is negative. Unfortunately, this won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE. This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with -INT_FRAME_SIZE. With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL pointers) are correctly detected again. Kudos to Paulus for finding this.

The current logic sets the kdump base to min of 2G or ppc64_rma_size/2. On PowerNV kernel the first memory block 'memory@0' can be very large, equal to the DIMM size with ppc64_rma_size value capped to 1G. Hence on PowerNV, kdump base is set to 512M resulting kdump to fail while allocating paca array. This is because, paca need its memory from RMA region capped at 256M (see allocate_pacas()). This patch lowers the kdump base cap to 128M so that kdump kernel can successfully get memory below 256M for paca allocation.

In pte_alloc_one(), pgtable_page_ctor() is passed an address that has not been converted by page_address() to the newly allocated PTE page. When the PTE is freed, __pte_free_tlb() calls pgtable_page_dtor() with an address to the PTE page that has been converted by page_address(). The mismatch in the PTE's page address causes pgtable_page_dtor() to access invalid memory, so resources for that PTE (such as the page lock) is not properly cleaned up. On PPC32, only SMP kernels are affected. On PPC64, only SMP kernels with 4K page size are affected. This bug was introduced by commit d614bb04 "powerpc: Move the pte free routines from common header". On a preempt-rt kernel, a spinlock is dynamically allocated for each PTE in pgtable_page_ctor(). When the PTE is freed, calling pgtable_page_dtor() with a mismatched page address causes a memory leak, as the pointer to the PTE's spinlock is bogus. On mainline, there isn't any immediately obvious symptoms, but the problem still exists here.

In a recent patch: commit c13f20ac Author: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contexts We fixed an issue but an improved solution was later discussed after the patch was merged. Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit this issue (but has never been reported). Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the state). This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It also adds a 64 bit version.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP option is used in kernel, makedumpfile fails to filter vmcore dump as it fails to do vmemmap translations. So far dump filtering on ppc64 never had to deal with vmemmap addresses seperately as vmemmap regions where mapped in zone normal. But with the inclusion of CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP config option in kernel, this vmemmap address translation support becomes necessary for dump filtering. For vmemmap adress translation, few kernel symbols are needed by dump filtering tool. This patch adds those symbols to vmcoreinfo, which a dump filtering tool can use for filtering the kernel dump. Tested this changes successfully with makedumpfile tool that supports vmemmap to physical address translation outside zone normal.

This was found by Dan using static analysis as described here: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2013-November/113161.html We currently get away with this because the callers that currently pass NULL for vma seem to be 32-bit-only (e.g. highmem, and CONFIG_DEBUG_PGALLOC in pgtable_32.c) Hugetlb is currently 64-bit only, so we never saw a NULL vma here.
