The afu fd release path was identified as a significant bottleneck in the overall performance of cxl. While an optimal AFU design would minimise the need to close & reopen the AFU fd, it is not always practical to avoid. The bottleneck seems to be down to the call to synchronize_rcu(), which will block until every other thread is guaranteed to be out of an RCU critical section. Replace it with call_rcu() to free the context structures later so we can return to the application sooner. This reduces the time spent in the fd release path from 13356 usec to 13.3 usec - about a 100x speed up.

Export the "AFU Error Buffer" via sysfs attribute (afu_err_buf). AFU error buffer is used by the AFU to report application specific errors. The contents of this buffer are AFU specific and are intended to be interpreted by the application interacting with the afu.

Given a file descriptor on an afu device, libcxl currently uses the major/minor number obtained from fstat on the fd to construct path to the afu's sysfs directory. However it is possible that rather than using one of the device in /dev/cxl, a kernel driver creates its own device which export generic cxl interface to the userspace. This causes problems with libcxl as it tries to use a wrong major/minor number to construct the sysfs path and fail. So this patch introduces a new ioctl called CXL_IOCTL_GET_AFU_ID on the afu file descriptor to fetch the cxl_afu_id struct that holds the card/offset-id and mode information. These info is then used by libcxl to construct the correct path to the afu sysfs directory. Testing: - Build against pseries be/le configs - Testing with corresponding libcxl changes to verify that it constructs right sysfs path to the afu.

Rather than continuing to maintain a copy of pseries_defconfig with CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN enabled, use the generic merge_config script and use an le.config to enable little endian on top of pseries_defconfig without the need for a duplicated _defconfig file. This method will require less maintenance in the future and will ensure that both 'defconfigs' are always in sync. It is worth noting that the seemingly more simple approach of: pseries_le_defconfig: pseries_defconfig $(Q)$(MAKE) le.config Will not work when building using O=builddir. The obvious fix to that: pseries_le_defconfig: $(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile pseries_defconfig le.config Also does not work. This is because if we have for example: config FOO depends on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN select BAR Then BAR will be enabled by the first call to kconfig (via pseries_defconfig), and then will remain enabled after we merge le.config, even though FOO will have been turned off. The solution is to ensure to only invoke the kconfig logic once, after we have merged all the config fragments. This ensures nothing is select'ed on that should then be disabled by the later merged configs. This is done through the explicit call to make olddefconfig Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Samuel Mendoza-Jonas <sam.mj@au1.ibm.com> [mpe: Massage change log, fix white space and use ARCH not SRCARCH] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

These two configs should be identical with the exception of big or little endian. The big endian version has XMON_DEFAULT turned on while the little endian has XMON_DEFAULT not set. It makes the most sense for defconfigs not to use xmon by default, production systems should get back up as quickly as possible, not sit in xmon. In the event debugging is required, the option can be enabled or xmon=on can be specified on commandline.

When we take a PMU exception or a software event we call perf_read_regs(). This overloads regs->result with a boolean that describes if we should use the sampled instruction address register (SIAR) or the regs. If the exception is in kernel, we start with the kernel regs and backtrace through the kernel stack. At this point we switch to the userspace regs and backtrace the user stack with perf_callchain_user(). Unfortunately these regs have not got the perf_read_regs() treatment, so regs->result could be anything. If it is non zero, perf_instruction_pointer() decides to use the SIAR, and we get issues like this: 0.11% qemu-system-ppc [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave | ---_raw_spin_lock_irqsave | |--52.35%-- 0 | | | |--46.39%-- __hrtimer_start_range_ns | | kvmppc_run_core | | kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv | | kvmppc_vcpu_run | | kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run | | kvm_vcpu_ioctl | | do_vfs_ioctl | | sys_ioctl | | system_call | | | | | |--67.08%-- _raw_spin_lock_irqsave <--- hi mum | | | | | | | --100.00%-- 0x7e714 | | | 0x7e714 Notice the bogus _raw_spin_irqsave when we transition from kernel (system_call) to userspace (0x7e714).

Previously, dma_set_mask() on powernv was convoluted: 0) Call dma_set_mask() (a/p/kernel/dma.c) 1) In dma_set_mask(), ppc_md.dma_set_mask() exists, so call it. 2) On powernv, that function pointer is pnv_dma_set_mask(). In pnv_dma_set_mask(), the device is pci, so call pnv_pci_dma_set_mask(). 3) In pnv_pci_dma_set_mask(), call pnv_phb->set_dma_mask() if it exists. 4) It only exists in the ioda case, where it points to pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask(), which is the final function. So the call chain is: dma_set_mask() -> pnv_dma_set_mask() -> pnv_pci_dma_set_mask() -> pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask() Both ppc_md and pnv_phb function pointers are used. Rip out the ppc_md call, pnv_dma_set_mask() and pnv_pci_dma_set_mask(). Instead: 0) Call dma_set_mask() (a/p/kernel/dma.c) 1) In dma_set_mask(), the device is pci, and pci_controller_ops.dma_set_mask() exists, so call pci_controller_ops.dma_set_mask() 2) In the ioda case, that points to pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask(). The new call chain is dma_set_mask() -> pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask() Now only the pci_controller_ops function pointer is used. The fallback paths for p5ioc2 are the same. Previously, pnv_pci_dma_set_mask() would find no pnv_phb->set_dma_mask() function, to it would call __set_dma_mask(). Now, dma_set_mask() finds no ppc_md call or pci_controller_ops call, so it calls __set_dma_mask(). Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Move the fsl_msi subsystem to use the pci_controller_ops structure rather than ppc_md for MSI related PCI controller operations. Previously, MSI ops were added to ppc_md at the subsys level. However, in fsl_pci.c, PCI controllers are created at the at arch level. So, unlike in e.g. PowerNV/pSeries/Cell, we can't simply populate a platform-level controller ops structure and have it copied into the controllers when they are created. Instead, walk every phb, and attempt to populate it with the MSI ops. Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Daniel Axtens authored
Move the Cell platform to use the pci_controller_ops structure rather than ppc_md for MSI related PCI controller operations. We can be confident that the functions will be added to the platform's ops struct before any PCI controller's ops struct is populated because: 1) These ops are added to the struct in a subsys initcall. We populate the ops in axon_msi_probe, which is the probe call for the axon-msi driver. However the driver is registered in axon_msi_init, which is a subsys initcall, so this will happen at the subsys level. 2) The controller recieves the struct later, in a device initcall. Cell populates the controller in cell_setup_phb, which is hooked up to ppc_md.pci_setup_phb. ppc_md.pci_setup_phb is only ever called in of_platform.c, as part of the OpenFirmware PCI driver's probe routine. That driver is registered in a device initcall, so it will occur *after* the struct is properly populated.

Whenever an interrupt is received for opal the linux kernel gets a bitfield indicating certain events that have occurred and need handling by the various device drivers. Currently this is handled using a notifier interface where we call every device driver that has registered to receive opal events. This approach has several drawbacks. For example each driver has to do its own checking to see if the event is relevant as well as event masking. There is also no easy method of recording the number of times we receive particular events. This patch solves these issues by exposing opal events via the standard interrupt APIs by adding a new interrupt chip and domain. Drivers can then register for the appropriate events using standard kernel calls such as irq_of_parse_and_map().

Fastsleep is one of the idle state which cpuidle subsystem currently uses on power8 machines. In this state L2 cache is brought down to a threshold voltage. Therefore when the core is in fastsleep, the communication between L2 and L3 needs to be fenced. But there is a bug in the current power8 chips surrounding this fencing. OPAL provides a workaround which precludes the possibility of hitting this bug. But running with this workaround applied causes checkstop if any correctable error in L2 cache directory is detected. Hence OPAL also provides a way to undo the workaround. In the existing implementation, workaround is applied by the last thread of the core entering fastsleep and undone by the first thread waking up. But this has a performance cost. These OPAL calls account for roughly 4000 cycles everytime the core has to enter or wakeup from fastsleep. This patch introduces a sysfs attribute (fastsleep_workaround_applyonce) to choose the behavior of this workaround. By default, fastsleep_workaround_applyonce = 0. In this case, workaround is applied/undone everytime the core enters/exits fastsleep. fastsleep_workaround_applyonce = 1. In this case the workaround is applied once on all the cores and never undone. This can be triggered by echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/fastsleep_workaround_applyonce For simplicity this attribute can be modified only once. Implying, once fastsleep_workaround_applyonce is changed to 1, it cannot be reverted to the default state. Signed-off-by: Shreyas B.

Currently, cpu_online_cores_map returns a mask, which for every core with at least one online thread, has the bit for thread 0 of the core set to 1, and the bits for all other threads of the core set to 0. But thread 0 of the core itself may not be online always. In such cases, if the returned mask is used for IPI, then it'll cause IPIs to be skipped on cores where the first thread is offline, because the IPI code refuses to send IPIs to offline threads. Fix this by setting the bit of the first online thread in the core. This is done by fixing this in the underlying function cpu_thread_mask_to_cores. The result has the property that for all cores with online threads, there is one bit set in the returned map. And further, all bits that are set in the returned map correspond to online threads.

The commit 8170a83f ("powerpc: Wireup the kcmp syscall to sys_ni") has disabled the kcmp syscall for powerpc. This has been done due to the use of unsigned long parameters which may require a dedicated wrapper to handle 32bit process on top of 64bit kernel. However in the kcmp() case, the 2 unsigned long parameters are currently only used to carry file descriptors from user space to the kernel. Since such a parameter is passed through register, and file descriptor doesn't need to get extended, there is, today, no need for a wrapper. In the case there will be a need to pass address in or out of this system call, then a wrapper could be required, it will then be to care of it. As today this is not the case, it is safe to enable kcmp() on powerpc. Tested (by Laurent) on 64-bit, 32-bit, and 32-bit userspace on 64-bit kernel using tools/testing/selftests/kcmp [mpe].
