We currently have two section mismatch warnings: The function __boot_from_prom() references the function __init prom_init(). The function start_here_common() references the function __init start_kernel(). The warnings are correct, we do have branches from non-init code into init code, which is freed after boot. But we don't expect to ever execute any of that early boot code after boot, if we did that would be a bug. In particular calling into OF after boot would be fatal because OF is no longer resident. So for now fix the warnings by marking the relevant functions as __REF, which puts them in the ".ref.text" section. This causes some reordering of the functions in the final link: @@ -217,10 +217,9 @@ c00000000000b088 t generic_secondary_common_init c00000000000b124 t __mmu_off c00000000000b14c t __start_initialization_multiplatform -c00000000000b1ac t __boot_from_prom -c00000000000b1ec t __after_prom_start -c00000000000b260 t p_end -c00000000000b27c T copy_and_flush +c00000000000b1ac t __after_prom_start +c00000000000b220 t p_end +c00000000000b23c T copy_and_flush c00000000000b300 T __secondary_start c00000000000b300 t copy_to_here c00000000000b344 t start_secondary_prolog @@ -228,8 +227,9 @@ c00000000000b36c t enable_64b_mode c00000000000b388 T relative_toc c00000000000b3a8 t p_toc -c00000000000b3b0 t start_here_common -c00000000000b3d0 t start_here_multiplatform +c00000000000b3b0 t __boot_from_prom +c00000000000b3f0 t start_here_multiplatform +c00000000000b480 t start_here_common c00000000000b880 T system_call_common c00000000000b974 t system_call c00000000000b9dc t system_call_exit In particular __boot_from_prom moves after copy_to_here, which means it's not copied to zero in the first stage of copy of the kernel to zero.

In xmon we have two variables that are used by the dump commands. There's ndump which is the number of bytes to dump using 'd', and nidump which is the number of instructions to dump using 'di'. ndump starts as 64 and nidump starts as 16, but both can be set by the user. It's fairly common to be pasting addresses into xmon when trying to debug something, and if you inadvertently double paste an address like so: 0:mon> di c000000002101f6c c000000002101f6c The second value is interpreted as the number of instructions to dump. Luckily it doesn't dump 13 quintrillion instructions, the value is limited to MAX_DUMP (128K). But as each instruction is dumped on a single line, that's still a lot of output. If you're on a slow console that can take multiple minutes to print. If you were "just popping in and out of xmon quickly before the RCU/hardlockup detector fires" you are now having a bad day. Things are not as bad with 'd' because we print 16 bytes per line, so it's fewer lines. But it's still quite a lot. So shrink the maximum for 'd' to 64K (one page), which is 4096 lines. For 'di' add a new limit which is the above / 4 - because instructions are 4 bytes, meaning again we can dump one page. Signed-off-by:

The expectation is that when calling of_read_drc_info_cell() repeatedly to parse multiple drc-info records that the in/out curval parameter points at the start of the next record on return. However, the current behavior has curval still pointing at the final value of the record just parsed. The result of which is that if the ibm,drc-info property contains multiple properties the parsed value of the drc_type for any record after the first has the power_domain value of the previous record appended to the type string. eg: observed the following 0xffffffff prepended to PHB drc-info: type: \xff\xff\xff\xffPHB, prefix: PHB , index_start: 0x20000001 drc-info: suffix_start: 1, sequential_elems: 3072, sequential_inc: 1 drc-info: power-domain: 0xffffffff, last_index: 0x20000c00 In practice PHBs are the only type of connector in the ibm,drc-info property that has multiple records. So, it breaks PHB hotplug, but by chance not PCI, CPU, slot, or memory because they happen to only ever be a single record. Fix by incrementing curval past the power_domain value to point at drc_type string of next record. Fixes: e83636ac ("pseries/drc-info: Search DRC properties for CPU indexes") Signed-off-by:

The test case tm-signal-context-force-tm expects a segfault to happen on returning from signal handler, and then does a setcontext() to run the test again. However, the test doesn't always segfault, causing the test to run a single time. This patch fixes the test by putting it within a loop and jumping, via setcontext, just prior to the loop in case it segfaults. This way we get the desired behavior (run the test COUNT_MAX times) regardless if it segfaults or not. This also reduces the use of setcontext for control flow logic, keeping it only in the segfault handler. Also, since 'count' is changed within the signal handler, it is declared as volatile to prevent any compiler optimization getting confused with asynchronous changes. Signed-off-by:

This test triggers a TM Bad Thing by raising a signal in transactional state and forcing a pagefault to happen in kernelspace when the kernel signal handling code first touches the user signal stack. This is inspired by the test tm-signal-context-force-tm but uses userfaultfd to make the test deterministic. While this test always triggers the bug in one run, I had to execute tm-signal-context-force-tm several times (the test runs 5000 times each execution) to trigger the same bug. tm-signal-context-force-tm is kept instead of replaced because, while this test is more reliable and triggers the same bug, tm-signal-context-force-tm has a better coverage, in the sense that by running the test several times it might trigger the pagefault and/or be preempted at different places. v3: skip test if userfaultfd is unavailable.

There's two different paths through the sigreturn code, depending on whether the VDSO is mapped or not. We recently discovered a bug in the unmapped case, because it's not commonly used these days. So add a test that sends itself a signal, then moves the VDSO, takes another signal and finally unmaps the VDSO before sending itself another signal. That tests the standard signal path, the code that handles the VDSO being moved, and also the signal path in the case where the VDSO is unmapped. Signed-off-by:

ev_byte_channel_send() assumes that its third argument is a 16 byte array. Some places where it is called it may not be (or we can't easily tell if it is). Newer compilers have started producing warnings about this, so make sure we actually pass a 16 byte array. There may be more elegant solutions to this, but the driver is quite old and hasn't been updated in many years.

The PowerNV cpufreq driver registers two notifiers: one to catch throttle messages from the OCC and one to bump the CPU frequency back to normal before a reboot. Both require the cpufreq driver to be registered in order to function since the notifier callbacks use various cpufreq_*() functions. Right now we register both notifiers before we've initialised the driver. This seems to work, but we should head off any protential problems by registering the notifiers after the driver is initialised. Signed-off-by:

The cpufreq driver has a use-after-free that we can hit if: a) There's an OCC message pending when the notifier is registered, and b) The cpufreq driver fails to register with the core. When a) occurs the notifier schedules a workqueue item to handle the message. The backing work_struct is located on chips[].throttle and when b) happens we clean up by freeing the array. Once we get to the (now free) queued item and the kernel crashes. Fixes: c5e29ea7 ("cpufreq: powernv: Fix bugs in powernv_cpufreq_{init/exit}") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.6+ Signed-off-by:

The original 2005 patch that introduced the powerpc vdso, pre-git ("ppc64: Implement a vDSO and use it for signal trampoline") notes that: ... symbols exposed by the vDSO aren't "normal" function symbols, apps can't be expected to link against them directly, the vDSO's are both seen as if they were linked at 0 and the symbols just contain offsets to the various functions. This is done on purpose to avoid a relocation step (ppc64 functions normally have descriptors with abs addresses in them). When glibc uses those functions, it's expected to use it's own trampolines that know how to reach them. Despite that explanation, there remains dead #ifdef VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS code-blocks that provide alternate function definitions that setup function descriptors. Since VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS has been unused for all these years, we might as well finally remove it from the codebase. Signed-off-by:Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

In flush_coherent_icache() we implement an optimisation for CPUs where we know we don't actually have to flush the whole range, we just need to do a single icbi. However we still execute the icbi on the user address of the start of the range we're flushing. On CPUs that also implement KUAP (Power9) that leads to the spurious fault above. We should be able to pass any address, including a kernel address, to the icbi on these CPUs, which would avoid any interaction with KUAP. But I don't want to make that change in a bug fix, just in case it surfaces some strange behaviour on some CPU. So for now just disable KUAP around the icbi. Note the icbi is treated as a load, so we allow read access, not write as you'd expect. Fixes: 890274c2 ("powerpc/64s: Implement KUAP for Radix MMU") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.2+ Reported-by:

Currently the kernel detects if its running on a shared lpar platform and requests home node associativity before the scheduler sched_domains are setup. However between the time NUMA setup is initialized and the request for home node associativity, workqueue initializes its per node cpumask. The per node workqueue possible cpumask may turn invalid after home node associativity resulting in weird situations like workqueue possible cpumask being a subset of workqueue online cpumask. This can be fixed by requesting home node associativity earlier just before NUMA setup. However at the NUMA setup time, kernel may not be in a position to detect if its running on a shared lpar platform. So request for home node associativity and if the request fails, fallback on the device tree property. Signed-off-by:

Until commit 7306e83c ("powerpc: Don't use CURRENT_THREAD_INFO to find the stack"), the current stack base address was obtained by calling current_thread_info(). That inline function was simply masking out the value of r1. In that commit, it was changed to using current_stack_pointer() (since renamed current_stack_frame()), which is a heavier function as it is an outline assembly function which cannot be inlined and which reads the content of the stack at 0(r1). Convert to using current_stack_pointer for geting r1 and masking out its value to obtain the base address of the stack pointer as before.

In some cases this is overkill or incorrect, as it doesn't return the current value of r1. So add a current_stack_pointer register global to get the value of r1 directly. Signed-off-by:

current_stack_pointer(), which was called __get_SP(), used to just return the value in r1. But that caused problems in some cases, so it was turned into a function in commit bfe9a2cf ("powerpc: Reimplement __get_SP() as a function not a define"). Because it's a function in a separate compilation unit to all its callers, it has the effect of causing a stack frame to be created, and then returns the address of that frame. This is good in some cases like those described in the above commit, but in other cases it's overkill, we just need to know what stack page we're on. On some other arches current_stack_pointer is just a register global giving the stack pointer, and we'd like to do that too. So rename our current_stack_pointer() to current_stack_frame() to make that possible. Signed-off-by:

Many of the performance monitoring unit (PMU) SPRs are exposed in the sysfs. This may not be a desirable since "perf" API is the primary interface to program PMU and collect counter data in the system. But that said, we cant remove these sysfs files since we dont whether anyone/anything is using them. So the patch adds a new CONFIG option 'CONFIG_PMU_SYSFS' (user selectable) to be used in sysfs file creation for PMU SPRs. New option by default is disabled, but can be enabled if user needs it. Tested this patch behaviour in powernv and pseries machines. Patch is also tested for pmac32_defconfig. Signed-off-by:

An attempt to refactor the current sysfs.c file. To start with a big chuck of macro #defines and dscr functions are moved to start of the file. Secondly, HAS_ #define macros are cleanup based on CONFIG_ options Finally new HAS_ macro added: 1. HAS_PPC_PA6T (for PA6T) to separate out non-PMU SPRs. 2. HAS_PPC_PMC56 to separate out PMC SPR's from HAS_PPC_PMC_CLASSIC which come under CONFIG_PPC64. Signed-off-by:

Add a way to manually invoke a fast-reboot rather than setting the NVRAM flag. The idea is to allow userspace to invoke a fast-reboot using the optional string argument to the reboot() system call, or using the xmon zr command so we don't need to leave around a persistent changes on a system to use the feature.

Treat an empty reboot cmd string the same as a NULL string. This squashes a spurious unsupported reboot message that sometimes gets out when using xmon. Signed-off-by:

Some of our phony targets are not marked as such. This can lead to confusing errors, eg: $ make clean $ touch install $ make install make: 'install' is up to date. $ Fix it by adding them to the PHONY variable which is marked phony in the top-level Makefile, or in scripts/Makefile.build for the boot Makefile.
