When the return value type was changed from int to bool, few places were left unchanged, this fixes them. We did not hit these failures as the first one is not happening at all and the second one is little more likely to happen if the user switches a 33..58bit DMA capable device between the VFIO and vendor drivers and there are not so many of these.

Reimplement Book3S idle code in C, moving POWER7/8/9 implementation speific HV idle code to the powernv platform code. Book3S assembly stubs are kept in common code and used only to save the stack frame and non-volatile GPRs before executing architected idle instructions, and restoring the stack and reloading GPRs then returning to C after waking from idle. The complex logic dealing with threads and subcores, locking, SPRs, HMIs, timebase resync, etc., is all done in C which makes it more maintainable. This is not a strict translation to C code, there are some significant differences: - Idle wakeup no longer uses the ->cpu_restore call to reinit SPRs, but saves and restores them itself. - The optimisation where EC=ESL=0 idle modes did not have to save GPRs or change MSR is restored, because it's now simple to do. ESL=1 sleeps that do not lose GPRs can use this optimization too. - KVM secondary entry and cede is now more of a call/return style rather than branchy. nap_state_lost is not required because KVM always returns via NVGPR restoring path. - KVM secondary wakeup from offline sequence is moved entirely into the offline wakeup, which avoids a hwsync in the normal idle wakeup path. Performance measured with context switch ping-pong on different threads or cores, is possibly improved a small amount, 1-3% depending on stop state and core vs thread test for shallow states. Deep states it's in the noise compared with other latencies. KVM improvements: - Idle sleepers now always return to caller rather than branch out to KVM first. - This allows optimisations like very fast return to caller when no state has been lost. - KVM no longer requires nap_state_lost because it controls NVGPR save/restore itself on the way in and out. - The heavy idle wakeup KVM request check can be moved out of the normal host idle code and into the not-performance-critical offline code. - KVM nap code now returns from where it is called, which makes the flow a bit easier to follow.

Using a jiffies timer creates a dependency on the tick_do_timer_cpu incrementing jiffies. If that CPU has locked up and jiffies is not incrementing, the watchdog heartbeat timer for all CPUs stops and creates false positives and confusing warnings on local CPUs, and also causes the SMP detector to stop, so the root cause is never detected. Fix this by using hrtimer based timers for the watchdog heartbeat, like the generic kernel hardlockup detector. Cc: Gautham R.

When removing memory we need to remove the memory from the node it was added to instead of looking up the node it should be in in the device tree. During testing we have seen scenarios where the affinity for a LMB changes due to a partition migration or PRRN event. In these cases the node the LMB exists in may not match the node the device tree indicates it belongs in. This can lead to a system crash when trying to DLPAR remove the LMB after a migration or PRRN event. The current code looks up the node in the device tree to remove the LMB from, the crash occurs when we try to offline this node and it does not have any data, i.e. node_data[nid] == NULL. 36:mon> e cpu 0x36: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000001828b7810] pc: c00000000036d08c: try_offline_node+0x2c/0x1b0 lr: c0000000003a14ec: remove_memory+0xbc/0x110 sp: c0000001828b7a90 msr: 800000000280b033 dar: 9a28 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc0000006329c4c80 paca = 0xc000000007a55200 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 76926, comm = kworker/u320:3 36:mon> t [link register ] c0000000003a14ec remove_memory+0xbc/0x110 [c0000001828b7a90] c00000000006a1cc arch_remove_memory+0x9c/0xd0 (unreliable) [c0000001828b7ad0] c0000000003a14e0 remove_memory+0xb0/0x110 [c0000001828b7b20] c0000000000c7db4 dlpar_remove_lmb+0x94/0x160 [c0000001828b7b60] c0000000000c8ef8 dlpar_memory+0x7e8/0xd10 [c0000001828b7bf0] c0000000000bf828 handle_dlpar_errorlog+0xf8/0x160 [c0000001828b7c60] c0000000000bf8cc pseries_hp_work_fn+0x3c/0xa0 [c0000001828b7c90] c000000000128cd8 process_one_work+0x298/0x5a0 [c0000001828b7d20] c000000000129068 worker_thread+0x88/0x620 [c0000001828b7dc0] c00000000013223c kthread+0x1ac/0x1c0 [c0000001828b7e30] c00000000000b45c ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x80 To resolve this we need to track the node a LMB belongs to when it is added to the system so we can remove it from that node instead of the node that the device tree indicates it should belong to.

This patch maps vmalloc, IO and vmemap regions in the 0xc address range instead of the current 0xd and 0xf range. This brings the mapping closer to radix translation mode. With hash 64K page size each of this region is 512TB whereas with 4K config we are limited by the max page table range of 64TB and hence there regions are of 16TB size. The kernel mapping is now: On 4K hash kernel_region_map_size = 16TB kernel vmalloc start = 0xc000100000000000 kernel IO start = 0xc000200000000000 kernel vmemmap start = 0xc000300000000000 64K hash, 64K radix and 4k radix: kernel_region_map_size = 512TB kernel vmalloc start = 0xc008000000000000 kernel IO start = 0xc00a000000000000 kernel vmemmap start = 0xc00c000000000000 Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

The current value of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS cannot work with 32 bit configs. We used to have MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS not defined without SPARSEMEM and 32 bit configs never expected a value to be set for MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. Dependent code such as zsmalloc derived the right values based on other fields. Instead of finding a value that works with different configs, use new values only for book3s_64. For 64 bit booke, use the definition of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS as per commit a7df61a0 ("[PATCH] ppc64: Increase sparsemem defaults") That change was done in 2005 and hopefully will work with book3e 64.

This patch implements Kernel Userspace Access Protection for book3s/32. Due to limitations of the processor page protection capabilities, the protection is only against writing. read protection cannot be achieved using page protection. The previous patch modifies the page protection so that RW user pages are RW for Key 0 and RO for Key 1, and it sets Key 0 for both user and kernel. This patch changes userspace segment registers are set to Ku 0 and Ks 1. When kernel needs to write to RW pages, the associated segment register is then changed to Ks 0 in order to allow write access to the kernel. In order to avoid having the read all segment registers when locking/unlocking the access, some data is kept in the thread_struct and saved on stack on exceptions. The field identifies both the first unlocked segment and the first segment following the last unlocked one. When no segment is unlocked, it contains value 0. As the hash_page() function is not able to easily determine if a protfault is due to a bad kernel access to userspace, protfaults need to be handled by handle_page_fault when KUAP is set.

This patch prepares Kernel Userspace Access Protection for book3s/32. Due to limitations of the processor page protection capabilities, the protection is only against writing. read protection cannot be achieved using page protection. book3s/32 provides the following values for PP bits: PP00 provides RW for Key 0 and NA for Key 1 PP01 provides RW for Key 0 and RO for Key 1 PP10 provides RW for all PP11 provides RO for all Today PP10 is used for RW pages and PP11 for RO pages, and user segment register's Kp and Ks are set to 1. This patch modifies page protection to use PP01 for RW pages and sets user segment registers to Kp 0 and Ks 0. This will allow to setup Userspace write access protection by settng Ks to 1 in the following patch. Kernel space segment registers remain unchanged.

This patch adds Kernel Userspace Access Protection on the 8xx. When a page is RO or RW, it is set RO or RW for Key 0 and NA for Key 1. Up to now, the User group is defined with Key 0 for both User and Supervisor. By changing the group to Key 0 for User and Key 1 for Supervisor, this patch prevents the Kernel from being able to access user data. At exception entry, the kernel saves SPRN_MD_AP in the regs struct, and reapply the protection. At exception exit it restores SPRN_MD_AP with the value saved on exception entry.

When KUAP is enabled we have logic to detect page faults that occur outside of a valid user access region and are blocked by the AMR. What we don't have at the moment is logic to detect a fault *within* a valid user access region, that has been incorrectly blocked by AMR. This is not meant to ever happen, but it can if we incorrectly save/restore the AMR, or if the AMR was overwritten for some other reason. Currently if that happens we assume it's just a regular fault that will be corrected by handling the fault normally, so we just return. But there is nothing the fault handling code can do to fix it, so the fault just happens again and we spin forever, leading to soft lockups. So add some logic to detect that case and WARN() if we ever see it. Arguably it should be a BUG(), but it's more polite to fail the access and let the kernel continue, rather than taking down the box. There should be no data integrity issue with failing the fault rather than BUG'ing, as we're just going to disallow an access that should have been allowed. To make the code a little easier to follow, unroll the condition at the end of bad_kernel_fault() and comment each case, before adding the call to bad_kuap_fault().

Kernel Userspace Access Prevention utilises a feature of the Radix MMU which disallows read and write access to userspace addresses. By utilising this, the kernel is prevented from accessing user data from outside of trusted paths that perform proper safety checks, such as copy_{to/from}_user() and friends. Userspace access is disabled from early boot and is only enabled when performing an operation like copy_{to/from}_user(). The register that controls this (AMR) does not prevent userspace from accessing itself, so there is no need to save and restore when entering and exiting userspace. When entering the kernel from the kernel we save AMR and if it is not blocking user access (because eg. we faulted doing a user access) we reblock user access for the duration of the exception (ie. the page fault) and then restore the AMR when returning back to the kernel. This feature can be tested by using the lkdtm driver (CONFIG_LKDTM=y) and performing the following: # (echo ACCESS_USERSPACE) > [debugfs]/provoke-crash/DIRECT If enabled, this should send SIGSEGV to the thread. We also add paranoid checking of AMR in switch and syscall return under CONFIG_PPC_KUAP_DEBUG.

__patch_instruction() is called in early boot, and uses __put_user_size(), which includes the allow/prevent calls to enforce KUAP, which could either be called too early, or in the Radix case, forced to use "early_" versions of functions just to safely handle this one case. __put_user_asm() does not do this, and thus is safe to use both in early boot, and later on since in this case it should only ever be touching kernel memory. __patch_instruction() was previously refactored to use __put_user_size() in order to be able to return -EFAULT, which would allow the kernel to patch instructions in userspace, which should never happen. This has the functional change of causing faults on userspace addresses if KUAP is turned on, which should never happen in practice. A future enhancement could be to double check the patch address is definitely allowed to be tampered with by the kernel.
