The code: ifdef CONFIG_6xx KBUILD_CFLAGS += -mcpu=powerpc endif was added in 2006 in commit f48b8296 ("[PATCH] powerpc32: Set cpu explicitly in kernel compiles"). This change was acceptable since the TARGET_CPU logic was 64-bit only. Since commit 0e00a8c9 ("powerpc: Allow CPU selection also on PPC32") this logic is no longer acceptable after the TARGET_CPU specific. It currently appends -mcpu=powerpc at the end of the command line, after any TARGET_CPU specific: gcc -Wp,-MD,init/.do_mounts.o.d ... -mcpu=powerpc -mbig-endian -m32 ... -mcpu=e300c2 ... -mcpu=powerpc ... ../init/do_mounts.c Fixes: 0e00a8c9 ("powerpc: Allow CPU selection also on PPC32") Signed-off-by:

The "altmap" is used to provide a pool of memory that is reserved for the vmemmap backing of hot-plugged memory. This is useful when adding large amount of ZONE_DEVICE memory to a system with a limited amount of normal memory. On ppc64 we use huge pages to map the vmemmap which requires the backing storage to be contigious and aligned to the hugepage size. The altmap implementation allows for the altmap provider to reserve a few PFNs at the start of the range for it's own uses and when this occurs the first chunk of the altmap is not usable for hugepage mappings. On hash there is no sane way to fall back to a normal sized page mapping so we fail the allocation. This results in memory hotplug failing with ENOMEM when the new range doesn't fall into an existing vmemmap block. This patch handles this case by falling back to using system memory rather than failing if we cannot allocate from the altmap. This fallback should only ever be used for the first vmemmap block so it should not cause excess memory consumption. Fixes: 7b73d978 ("mm: pass the vmem_altmap to vmemmap_populate") Signed-off-by:

The interleave set cookie is used to determine if a label stored in the metadata space should be applied to the current region. This is important in the case of NVDIMMs since the firmware may change the interleaving configuration of a DIMM which would invalidate the existing labels. In our case the hypervisor hides those details from us so we don't really care, but libnvdimm still requires the interleave set cookie to be non-zero. For our purposes we just need the set cookie to be unique and fixed for a given PAPR SCM region and using the unit-guid (really a UUID) is fine for this purpose.

Oliver O'Halloran authored
When a new nvdimm device is registered with libnvdimm via nvdimm_create() it is added as a device on the nvdimm bus. The probe function for the DIMM driver is potentially quite slow so actually registering and probing the device is done in an async domain rather than immediately after device creation. This can result in a race where the region device (created 2nd) is probed first and fails to activate at boot. To fix this we use the same approach as the ACPI/NFIT driver which is to check that all the DIMM devices registered successfully. LibNVDIMM provides the nvdimm_bus_count_dimms() function which synchronises with the async domain and verifies that the dimm was successfully registered with the bus. If either of these does not occur then we bail. Fixes: b5beae5e ("powerpc/pseries: Add driver for PAPR SCM regions") Signed-off-by:

The return values of a h-call are returned in the CPU registers and written to the provided buffer by the plpar_hcall() wrapper. As a result the values written to memory are always in the native endian and should not be byte swapped. The inital implementation of the H-Call interface was done in qemu and the returned values were byte swapped unnecessarily in both the hypervisor and in the driver so this was only noticed when bringing up the PowerVM implementation.

The ibm,unit-sizes property was originally specified as an array of two u32s corresponding to the memory block size, and the number of blocks available in that region. A fairly last-minute change to the SCM DT specification was splitting that into two seperate u64 properties: ibm,block-sizes and ibm,number-of-blocks that convey the same information. No firmware / hypervisor that emitted the ibm,unit-size property ever appeared in the wild. Fixes: b5beae5e ("powerpc/pseries: Add driver for PAPR SCM regions") Signed-off-by:

Fix an off-by-one error in the memory resource range. This resource is used to determine the address range of the memory to be hot-plugged as ZONE_DEVICE memory. The current end address results in the kernel attempting to map an additional memblock and the hypervisor may reject the mapping resulting in the entire hot-plug failing.

In commit 5e9dcb61 ("powerpc/boot: Expose Kconfig symbols to wrapper") we added a dependency to serial.c on autoconf.h: $(obj)/serial.c: $(obj)/autoconf.h This works when building in-tree (ie. with KBUILD_OUTPUT unset) because the obj tree is the src tree. But when building with eg. O=build and -j 1 the build fails: gcc ... -I../arch/powerpc/boot -c -o arch/powerpc/boot/serial.o arch/powerpc/boot/serial.c gcc: error: arch/powerpc/boot/serial.c: No such file or directory Why this is only happening with -j 1 is not clear, when building with -j greater than 1 somehow we decide to look for serial.c in the src tree (../), eg: gcc -I../arch/powerpc/boot -c -o arch/powerpc/boot/serial.o ../arch/powerpc/boot/serial.c Regardless we shouldn't be specifying a dependency on serial.c in the build tree, we want to add a dependency to the version in $(srctree) so fix the rule to say that.

The add_ssaaaa, sub_ddmmss, umul_ppmm and udiv_qrnnd macros originate from GCC's longlong.h which in turn was copied from GMP's longlong.h a few decades ago. This was found when compiling with clang: arch/powerpc/math-emu/fnmsub.c:46:2: error: invalid use of a cast in a inline asm context requiring an l-value: remove the cast or build with -fheinous-gnu-extensions FP_ADD_D(R, T, B); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ... ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/sfp-machine.h:283:27: note: expanded from macro 'sub_ddmmss' : "=r" ((USItype)(sh)), \ ~~~~~~~~~~^~~ Segher points out: this was fixed in GCC over 16 years ago ( https://gcc.gnu.org/r56600 ), and in GMP (where it comes from) presumably before that. Update the add_ssaaaa, sub_ddmmss, umul_ppmm and udiv_qrnnd macros to the latest GCC version in order to git rid of the invalid casts. These were taken as-is from GCC's longlong in order to make future syncs obvious. Other parts of sfp-machine.h were left as-is as the file contains more features than present in longlong.h.

Using this HW assistance implies some constraints on the page table structure: - Regardless of the main page size used (4k or 16k), the level 1 table (PGD) contains 1024 entries and each PGD entry covers a 4Mbytes area which is managed by a level 2 table (PTE) containing also 1024 entries each describing a 4k page. - 16k pages require 4 identifical entries in the L2 table - 512k pages PTE have to be spread every 128 bytes in the L2 table - 8M pages PTE are at the address pointed by the L1 entry and each 8M page require 2 identical entries in the PGD. In order to use hardware assistance with 16K pages, this patch does the following modifications: - Make PGD size independent of the main page size - In 16k pages mode, redefine pte_t as a struct with 4 elements, and populate those 4 elements in __set_pte_at() and pte_update() - Adapt the size of the hugepage tables. - Define a PTE_FRAGMENT_NB so that a 16k page contains 4 page tables.

Today, on the 8xx the TLB handlers do SW tablewalk by doing all the calculation in ASM, in order to match with the Linux page table structure. The 8xx offers hardware assistance which allows significant size reduction of the TLB handlers, hence also reduces the time spent in the handlers. However, using this HW assistance implies some constraints on the page table structure: - Regardless of the main page size used (4k or 16k), the level 1 table (PGD) contains 1024 entries and each PGD entry covers a 4Mbytes area which is managed by a level 2 table (PTE) containing also 1024 entries each describing a 4k page. - 16k pages require 4 identifical entries in the L2 table - 512k pages PTE have to be spread every 128 bytes in the L2 table - 8M pages PTE are at the address pointed by the L1 entry and each 8M page require 2 identical entries in the PGD. This patch modifies the TLB handlers to use HW assistance for 4K PAGES. Before that patch, the mean time spent in TLB miss handlers is: - ITLB miss: 80 ticks - DTLB miss: 62 ticks After that patch, the mean time spent in TLB miss handlers is: - ITLB miss: 72 ticks - DTLB miss: 54 ticks So the improvement is 10% for ITLB and 13% for DTLB misses Signed-off-by:

In preparation of making use of hardware assistance in TLB handlers, this patch temporarily disables 16K pages and hugepages. The reason is that when using HW assistance in 4K pages mode, the linux model fit with the HW model for 4K pages and 8M pages. However for 16K pages and 512K mode some additional work is needed to get linux model fit with HW model. For the 8M pages, they will naturaly come back when we switch to HW assistance, without any additional handling. In order to keep the following patch smaller, the removal of the current special handling for 8M pages gets removed here as well. Therefore the 4K pages mode will be implemented first and without support for 512k hugepages. Then the 512k hugepages will be brought back. And the 16K pages will be implemented in the following step. Signed-off-by:

In order to simplify time critical exceptions handling 8xx specific SW perf counters, this patch moves the counters into the beginning of memory. This is possible because .text is readable and the counters are never modified outside of the handlers. By doing this, we avoid having to set a second register with the upper part of the address of the counters. Signed-off-by:

In order to avoid this conflict, this patch: - modifies pgtable_cache_add() so that a zeroising constructor is added for any cache size. - replaces calls to kmem_cache_zalloc() by kmem_cache_alloc() Signed-off-by:

Instead of opencoding cache handling for the special case of hugepage tables having a single pte_t element, this patch makes use of the common pgtable_cache helpers Signed-off-by:

hugepages uses a cache of order 0. Lets allow page tables of order 0 in the common part in order to avoid open coding in hugetlb Signed-off-by:

This patch move pgtable_t into platform headers. It gets rid of the CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES case for PPC64 as nohash/64 doesn't support CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Reviewed-by:

The purpose of this patch is to move platform specific mmu-xxx.h files in platform directories like pte-xxx.h files. In the meantime this patch creates common nohash and nohash/32 + nohash/64 mmu.h files for future common parts. Reviewed-by:

There is no point in taking the page table lock as pte_frag or pmd_frag are always NULL when we have only one fragment. Reviewed-by:

In preparation of next patch which generalises the use of pte_fragment_alloc() for all, this patch moves the related functions in a place that is common to all subarches. The 8xx will need that for supporting 16k pages, as in that mode page tables still have a size of 4k. Since pte_fragment with only once fragment is not different from what is done in the general case, we can easily migrate all subarchs to pte fragments. Reviewed-by:
