Pratik R. Sampat authored
Adds a syscall interface to represent the energy and frequency related PAPR attributes on the system using the new H_CALL "H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO". H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL was previously responsible for exporting this information in the lparcfg, however the H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL will be deprecated P10 onwards. The H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO H_CALL is of the following call format: hcall( uint64 H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO, // Get energy scale info uint64 flags, // Per the flag request uint64 firstAttributeId,// The attribute id uint64 bufferAddress, // Guest physical address of the output buffer uint64 bufferSize // The size in bytes of the output buffer ); As specified in PAPR+ v2.11, section 14.14.3. This H_CALL can query either all the attributes at once with firstAttributeId = 0, flags = 0 as well as query only one attribute at a time with firstAttributeId = id, flags = 1. The output buffer consists of the following 1. number of attributes - 8 bytes 2. array offset to the data location - 8 bytes 3. version info - 1 byte 4. A data array of size num attributes, which contains the following: a. attribute ID - 8 bytes b. attribute value in number - 8 bytes c. attribute name in string - 64 bytes d. attribute value in string - 64 bytes The new H_CALL exports information in direct string value format, hence a new interface has been introduced in /sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info to export this information to userspace so that the firmware can add new values without the need for the kernel to be changed. The H_CALL returns the name, numeric value and string value (if exists) The format of exposing the sysfs information is as follows: /sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info/ |-- <id>/ |-- desc |-- value |-- value_desc (if exists) |-- <id>/ |-- desc |-- value |-- value_desc (if exists) ... The energy information that is exported is useful for userspace tools such as powerpc-utils. Currently these tools infer the "power_mode_data" value in the lparcfg, which in turn is obtained from the to be deprecated H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL. On future platforms, such userspace utilities will have to look at the data returned from the new H_CALL being populated in this new sysfs interface and report this information directly without the need of interpretation.

In realmode mce handler we use irq_work_queue() to defer the processing of mce events, irq_work_queue() can only be called when translation is enabled because it touches memory outside RMA, hence we enable translation before calling irq_work_queue and disable on return, though it is not safe to do in realmode. To avoid this, program the decrementer and call the event processing functions from timer handler.

When calling BPF helpers, we load the function address to call into a register. This can result in upto 5 instructions. Optimize this by instead using the kernel toc in r2 and adjusting offset to the BPF helper. This works since all BPF helpers are part of kernel text, and all BPF programs/functions utilize the kernel TOC. Further more: - load the actual function entry address in elf v1, rather than loading it through the function descriptor address. - load the Local Entry Point (LEP) in elf v2 skipping TOC setup. - consolidate code across elf abi v1 and v2 by using r12 on both.

We only see the warning in KVM guests with SMT enabled, which is not particularly common, or on other platforms if CONFIG_KPROBES is disabled, also not common. The reason we don't see it in most configurations is that another path that happens to have interrupts enabled has allocated the required page tables for us, eg. there's a path in kprobes init that does that. That's just pure luck though. As Christophe suggested, the simplest solution is to do a dummy map/unmap when we initialise the patching, so that any required page table levels are pre-allocated before the first call to do_patch_instruction(). This works because the unmap doesn't free any page tables that were allocated by the map, it just clears the PTE, leaving the page table levels there for the next map.

Since commit 46ddcb39 ("powerpc/mm: Show if a bad page fault on data is read or write.") we use page_fault_is_write(regs->dsisr) in __bad_page_fault() to determine if the fault is for a read or write, and change the message printed accordingly. But SLB faults, aka Data Segment Interrupts, don't set DSISR (Data Storage Interrupt Status Register) to a useful value. All ISA versions from v2.03 through v3.1 specify that the Data Segment Interrupt sets DSISR "to an undefined value". As far as I can see there's no mention of SLB faults setting DSISR in any BookIV content either. This manifests as accesses that should be a read being incorrectly reported as writes, for example, using the xmon "dump" command: 0:mon> d 0x5deadbeef0000000 5deadbeef0000000 [359526.415354][ C6] BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on write at 0x5deadbeef0000000 [359526.415611][ C6] Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000010a300 cpu 0x6: Vector: 380 (Data SLB Access) at [c00000000ffbf400] pc: c00000000010a300: mread+0x90/0x190 If we disassemble the PC, we see a load instruction: 0:mon> di c00000000010a300 c00000000010a300 89490000 lbz r10,0(r9) We can also see in exceptions-64s.S that the data_access_slb block doesn't set IDSISR=1, which means it doesn't load DSISR into pt_regs. So the value we're using to determine if the fault is a read/write is some stale value in pt_regs from a previous page fault. Rework the printing logic to separate the SLB fault case out, and only print read/write in the cases where we can determine it. The result looks like eg: 0:mon> d 0x5deadbeef0000000 5deadbeef0000000 [ 721.779525][ C6] BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access at 0x5deadbeef0000000 [ 721.779697][ C6] Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000014cbe0 cpu 0x6: Vector: 380 (Data SLB Access) at [c00000000ffbf390] 0:mon> d 0 0000000000000000 [ 742.793242][ C6] BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0x00000000 [ 742.793316][ C6] Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000014cbe0 cpu 0x6: Vector: 380 (Data SLB Access) at [c00000000ffbf390] Fixes: 46ddcb39 ("powerpc/mm: Show if a bad page fault on data is read or write.")

Since the VAS windows belong to the VAS hardware resource, the hypervisor expects the partition to close them on source partition and reopen them after the partition migrated on the destination machine. This handler is called before pseries_suspend() to close these windows and again invoked after migration. All active windows for both default and QoS types will be closed and mark them inactive and reopened after migration with this handler. During the migration, the user space receives paste instruction failure if it issues copy/paste on these inactive windows. The current migration implementation does not freeze the user space and applications can continue to open VAS windows while migration is in progress. So when the migration_in_progress flag is set, VAS open window API returns -EBUSY.

VAS is a hardware engine stays on the chip. So when the partition migrates, all VAS windows on the source system have to be closed and reopen them on the destination after migration. The kernel has to consider both DLPAR CPU and migration events to take action on VAS windows. So using VAS_WIN_NO_CRED_CLOSE and VAS_WIN_MIGRATE_CLOSE status bits and windows will be reopened after migration only after both status bits are cleared. This patch make changes to the current reconfig_open/close_windows functions to support migration: - Set VAS_WIN_MIGRATE_CLOSE to the window status when closes and reopen windows with the same status during resume. - Continue to close all windows even if deallocate HCALL failed (should not happen) since no way to stop migration with the current LPM implementation. - If the DLPAR CPU event happens while migration is in progress, set VAS_WIN_NO_CRED_CLOSE to the window status. Close window happens with the first event (migration or DLPAR) and Reopen window happens only with the last event (migration or DLPAR).

pseries supports two types of credits - Default (uses normal priority FIFO) and Qality of service (QoS uses high priority FIFO). The user decides the number of QoS credits and sets this value with HMC interface. The total credits for QoS capabilities can be changed dynamically with HMC interface which invokes drmgr to communicate to the kernel. This patch creats 'update_total_credits' entry for QoS capabilities so that drmgr command can write the new target QoS credits in sysfs. Instead of using this value, the kernel gets the new QoS capabilities from the hypervisor whenever update_total_credits is updated to make sure sync with the QoS target credits in the hypervisor.

VAS windows can be closed in the hypervisor due to lost credits when the core is removed and the kernel gets fault for NX requests on these inactive windows. If the NX requests are issued on these inactive windows, OS gets page faults and the paste failure will be returned to the user space. If the lost credits are available later with core add, reopen these windows and set them active. Later when the OS sees page faults on these active windows, it creates mapping on the new paste address. Then the user space can continue to use these windows and send HW compression requests to NX successfully.

The hypervisor assigns vas credits (windows) for each LPAR based on the number of cores configured in that system. The OS is expected to release credits when cores are removed, and may allocate more when cores are added. So there is a possibility of using excessive credits (windows) in the LPAR and the hypervisor expects the system to close the excessive windows so that NX load can be equally distributed across all LPARs in the system. When the OS closes the excessive windows in the hypervisor, it sets the window status inactive and invalidates window virtual address mapping. The user space receives paste instruction failure if any NX requests are issued on the inactive window. Then the user space can use with the available open windows or retry NX requests until this window active again. This patch also adds the notifier for core removal/add to close windows in the hypervisor if the system lost credits (core removal) and reopen windows in the hypervisor when the previously lost credits are available.

The paste address mapping is done with mmap() after the window is opened with ioctl. The partition has to close VAS windows in the hypervisor if it lost credits due to DLPAR core removal. But the kernel marks these windows inactive until the previously lost credits are available later. If the window is inactive due to DLPAR after this mmap(), the paste instruction returns failure until the the OS reopens this window again. Before the user space issuing mmap(), there is a possibility of happening DLPAR core removal event which causes the corresponding window inactive. So if the window is not active, return mmap() failure with -EACCES and expects the user space reissue mmap() when the window is active or open a new window when the credit is available.

The VAS window may not be active if the system looses credits and the NX generates page fault when it receives request on unmap paste address. The kernel handles the fault by remap new paste address if the window is active again, Otherwise return the paste instruction failure if the executed instruction that caused the fault was a paste.

The user space opens VAS windows and issues NX requests by pasting CRB on the corresponding paste address mmap. When the system lost credits due to core removal, the kernel has to close the window in the hypervisor and make the window inactive by unmapping this paste address. Also the OS has to handle NX request page faults if the user space issue NX requests. This handler maps the new paste address with the same VMA when the window is active again (due to core add with DLPAR). Otherwise returns paste failure.

The kernel sets the VAS window with PID when it is opened in the hypervisor. During DLPAR operation, windows can be closed and reopened in the hypervisor when the credit is available. So saves this PID in pseries_vas_window struct when the window is opened initially and reuse it later during DLPAR operation.

Merge a topic branch we are maintaining with some cross-architecture changes to function descriptor handling and their use in LKDTM. From Christophe's cover letter: Fix LKDTM for PPC64/IA64/PARISC PPC64/IA64/PARISC have function descriptors. LKDTM doesn't work on those three architectures because LKDTM messes up function descriptors with functions. This series does some cleanup in the three architectures and refactors function descriptors so that it can then easily use it in a generic way in LKDTM.
