PSL9D doesn't have a data-cache that needs to be flushed before resetting the card. However when cxl tries to flush data-cache on such a card, it times-out as PSL_Control register never indicates flush operation complete due to missing data-cache. This is usually indicated in the kernel logs with this message: "WARNING: cache flush timed out" To fix this the patch checks PSL_Debug register CDC-Field(BIT:27) which indicates the absence of a data-cache and sets a flag 'no_data_cache' in 'struct cxl_native' to indicate this. When cxl_data_cache_flush() is called it checks the flag and if set bails out early without requesting a data-cache flush operation to the PSL.

For PSL9 the contents of PSL_TB_CTLSTAT register have changed in PSL9 and all of the register is now readonly. Hence we don't need an sl_ops implementation for 'write_timebase_ctrl' for to populate this register for PSL9. Hence this patch removes function write_timebase_ctrl_psl9() and its references from the code.

We enable the NORST bit by default for debug afu images to prevent reset of AFU trace-data on a PCI link drop. For production AFU images this bit is always ignored and PSL gets reconfigured anyways thereby resetting the trace data. So setting this bit for non-debug images doesn't have any impact.

Presently when xmon is disabled by debugfs any existing instruction/data-access breakpoints set are not disabled. This may lead to kernel oops when those breakpoints are hit as the necessary debugger hooks aren't installed. Hence this patch introduces a new function named clear_all_bpt() which is called when xmon is disabled via debugfs. The function will unpatch/clear all the trap and ciabr/dab based breakpoints.

Presently sysrq key for xmon('x') is registered during kernel init irrespective of the value of kernel param 'xmon'. Thus xmon is enabled even if 'xmon=off' is passed on the kernel command line. However this doesn't enable the kernel debugger hooks needed for instruction or data breakpoints. Thus when a break-point is hit with xmon=off a kernel oops of the form below is reported: Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] < snip > Trace/breakpoint trap To fix this the patch checks and enables debugger hooks when an instruction or data break-point is set via xmon console.

Some processor revisions do not support transactional memory, and additionally kernel support can be disabled. In either case the tm-unavailable test should be skipped, otherwise it will fail with a SIGILL. That commit also sets this selftest to be called through the test harness as it's done for other TM selftests. Finally, it avoids using "ping" as a thread name since it's ambiguous and can be confusing when shown, for instance, in a kernel backtrace log.

While the implementation of the "slices" address space allows a significant amount of high slices, it limits the number of low slices to 16 due to the use of a single u64 low_slices_psize element in struct mm_context_t On the 8xx, the minimum slice size is the size of the area covered by a single PMD entry, ie 4M in 4K pages mode and 64M in 16K pages mode. This means we could have at least 64 slices. In order to override this limitation, this patch switches the handling of low_slices_psize to char array as done already for high_slices_psize.

On the 8xx, the page size is set in the PMD entry and applies to all pages of the page table pointed by the said PMD entry. When an app has some regular pages allocated (e.g. see below) and tries to mmap() a huge page at a hint address covered by the same PMD entry, the kernel accepts the hint allthough the 8xx cannot handle different page sizes in the same PMD entry. 10000000-10001000 r-xp 00000000 00:0f 2597 /root/malloc 10010000-10011000 rwxp 00000000 00:0f 2597 /root/malloc mmap(0x10080000, 524288, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0) = 0x10080000 This results the app remaining forever in do_page_fault()/hugetlb_fault() and when interrupting that app, we get the following warning: [162980.035629] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2777 at arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c:354 hugetlb_free_pgd_range+0xc8/0x1e4 [162980.035699] CPU: 0 PID: 2777 Comm: malloc Tainted: G W 4.14.6 #85 [162980.035744] task: c67e2c00 task.stack: c668e000 [162980.035783] NIP: c000fe18 LR: c00e1eec CTR: c00f90c0 [162980.035830] REGS: c668fc20 TRAP: 0700 Tainted: G W (4.14.6) [162980.035854] MSR: 00029032 <EE,ME,IR,DR,RI> CR: 24044224 XER: 20000000 [162980.036003] [162980.036003] GPR00: c00e1eec c668fcd0 c67e2c00 00000010 c6869410 10080000 00000000 77fb4000 [162980.036003] GPR08: ffff0001 0683c001 00000000 ffffff80 44028228 10018a34 00004008 418004fc [162980.036003] GPR16: c668e000 00040100 c668e000 c06c0000 c668fe78 c668e000 c6835ba0 c668fd48 [162980.036003] GPR24: 00000000 73ffffff 74000000 00000001 77fb4000 100fffff 10100000 10100000 [162980.036743] NIP [c000fe18] hugetlb_free_pgd_range+0xc8/0x1e4 [162980.036839] LR [c00e1eec] free_pgtables+0x12c/0x150 [162980.036861] Call Trace: [162980.036939] [c668fcd0] [c00f0774] unlink_anon_vmas+0x1c4/0x214 (unreliable) [162980.037040] [c668fd10] [c00e1eec] free_pgtables+0x12c/0x150 [162980.037118] [c668fd40] [c00eabac] exit_mmap+0xe8/0x1b4 [162980.037210] [c668fda0] [c0019710] mmput.part.9+0x20/0xd8 [162980.037301] [c668fdb0] [c001ecb0] do_exit+0x1f0/0x93c [162980.037386] [c668fe00] [c001f478] do_group_exit+0x40/0xcc [162980.037479] [c668fe10] [c002a76c] get_signal+0x47c/0x614 [162980.037570] [c668fe70] [c0007840] do_signal+0x54/0x244 [162980.037654] [c668ff30] [c0007ae8] do_notify_resume+0x34/0x88 [162980.037744] [c668ff40] [c000dae8] do_user_signal+0x74/0xc4 [162980.037781] Instruction dump: [162980.037821] 7fdff378 81370000 54a3463a 80890020 7d24182e 7c841a14 712a0004 4082ff94 [162980.038014] 2f890000 419e0010 712a0ff0 408200e0 <0fe00000> 54a9000a 7f984840 419d0094 [162980.038216] ---[ end trace c0ceeca8e7a5800a ]--- [162980.038754] BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: 1 [162985.363322] BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: -1 In order to fix this, this patch uses the address space "slices" implemented for BOOK3S/64 and enhanced to support PPC32 by the preceding patch.

This limitation is not preventing us to fix the initial issue allthough it is suboptimal. It will be cured in a subsequent patch.

In preparation for the following patch which will fix an issue on the 8xx by re-using the 'slices', this patch enhances the 'slices' implementation to support 32 bits CPUs. On PPC32, the address space is limited to 4Gbytes, hence only the low slices will be used. The high slices use bitmaps. As bitmap functions are not prepared to handle bitmaps of size 0, this patch ensures that bitmap functions are called only when SLICE_NUM_HIGH is not nul.

Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure. This change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush in the filesystem-DAX case.

Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly. This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow 'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings. RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease' mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can be put in place for vfio. Note that xfs and ext4 still report: "DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" ...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one of the last hurdles to remove that designation.
