We inadvertently broke power3 support back in 3.4 with commit f5339277 "powerpc: Remove FW_FEATURE ISERIES from arch code". No one noticed until at least 3.9. By then we'd also broken it with the optimised memcpy, copy_to/from_user and clear_user routines. We don't want to add any more complexity to those just to support ancient cpus, so it seems like it's a good time to drop support for power3 and earlier. Signed-off-by:

Currently we have sys_sigpending and sys_old_getrlimit defined to use COMPAT_SYS() in systbl.h, but then both are #defined to sys_ni_syscall in systbl.S. This seems to have been done when ppc and ppc64 were merged, in commit 9994a338 "Introduce entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S". AFAICS there's no longer (or never was) any need for this, we can just use SYSX() for both and remove the #defines to sys_ni_syscall. The expansion before was: #define COMPAT_SYS(func) .llong .sys_##func,.compat_sys_##func #define sys_old_getrlimit sys_ni_syscall COMPAT_SYS(old_getrlimit) => .llong .sys_old_getrlimit,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit => .llong .sys_ni_syscall,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit After is: #define SYSX(f, f3264, f32) .llong .f,.f3264 SYSX(sys_ni_syscall, compat_sys_old_getrlimit, sys_old_getrlimit) => .llong .sys_ni_syscall,.compat_sys_old_getrlimit ie. they are equivalent. Finally both COMPAT_SYS() and SYSX() evaluate to sys_ni_syscall in the Cell SPU code. Signed-off-by:

The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure, flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call. While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness of the data is not. This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts. Signed-off-by:

In the recent commit b50a6c58 "Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU", I screwed up the handling of MMCR2 for tasks using EBB. We must make sure we set MMCR2 *before* ebb_switch_in(), otherwise we overwrite the value of MMCR2 that userspace may have written. That potentially breaks a task that uses EBB and manually uses MMCR2 for event freezing. Fixes: b50a6c58 ("powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

memmove may be called from module code copy_pages(btrfs), and it may call memcpy, which may call back to C code, so it needs to use _GLOBAL_TOC to set up r2 correctly.

Commit 75b57ecf refactored device tree nodes to use kobjects such that they can be exposed via /sysfs. A secondary commit 0829f6d1 furthered this rework by moving the kobect initialization logic out of of_node_add into its own of_node_init function. The inital commit removed the existing kref_init calls in the pseries dlpar code with the assumption kobject initialization would occur in of_node_add. The second commit had the side effect of triggering a BUG_ON during DLPAR, migration and suspend/resume operations as a result of dynamically added nodes being uninitialized. This patch fixes this by adding of_node_init calls in place of the previously removed kref_init calls.

This fixes some bugs in emulate_step(). First, the setting of the carry bit for the arithmetic right-shift instructions was not correct on 64-bit machines because we were masking with a mask of type int rather than unsigned long. Secondly, the sld (shift left doubleword) instruction was using the wrong instruction field for the register containing the shift count. Signed-off-by:

Knowing how long we spend in firmware calls is an important part of minimising OS jitter. This patch adds tracepoints to each OPAL call. If tracepoints are enabled we branch out to a common routine that calls an entry and exit tracepoint. This allows us to write tools that monitor the frequency and duration of OPAL calls, eg: name count total(ms) min(ms) max(ms) avg(ms) period(ms) OPAL_HANDLE_INTERRUPT 5 0.199 0.037 0.042 0.040 12547.545 OPAL_POLL_EVENTS 204 2.590 0.012 0.036 0.013 2264.899 OPAL_PCI_MSI_EOI 2830 3.066 0.001 0.005 0.001 81.166 We use jump labels if configured, which means we only add a single nop instruction to every OPAL call when the tracepoints are disabled.

Now that we execute the hcall tracepoint entry and exit code out of line, we can use the same stack across both functions. Signed-off-by:

hcall tracepoints add quite a few instructions to our hcall path: plpar_hcall: mr r2,r2 mfcr r0 stw r0,8(r1) b 164 <---- start ld r12,0(r2) std r12,32(r1) cmpdi r12,0 beq 164 <---- end ... We have an unconditional branch that gets noped out during boot and a load/compare/branch. We also store the tracepoint value to the stack for the hcall_exit path to use. By using jump labels we can simplify this to just a single nop that gets replaced with a branch when the tracepoint is enabled: plpar_hcall: mr r2,r2 mfcr r0 stw r0,8(r1) nop <---- ... If jump labels are not enabled, we fall back to the old method. Signed-off-by:

We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8: Can't find PMC that caused IRQ Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8 have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows. A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left), where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or just ensure that period_left is always >= 1. This patch takes the second option. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: -

On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset, resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host. We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the host. This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency: $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8 ... WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152 min: 18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1) max: 0.000 GHz (cpu -1) avg: 0.000 GHz The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine. The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of weather it was still running or had been shut down. By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running: $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger' CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6 PMC1: 5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000 PMC5: 1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000 MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000 EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000 SIAR: 00000000000a51cc SDAR: c00000000fc40000 SIER: 0000000001000000 This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has indicated it was using the PMU. This is okay, however the user of the PMU needs to ensure that it is in a defined state when it starts using it.

These two registers are already saved in the block above. Aside from being unnecessary, by the time we get down to the second save location r8 no longer contains MMCR2, so we are clobbering the saved value with PMC5. MMCR2 primarily consists of counter freeze bits. So restoring the value of PMC5 into MMCR2 will most likely have the effect of freezing counters.

Commit 8d6f7c5a: "powerpc/powernv: Make it possible to skip the IRQHAPPENED check in power7_nap()" added code that prevents cpus from checking for pending interrupts just before entering sleep state, which is wrong. These interrupts are delivered during the soft irq disabled state of the cpu. A cpu cannot enter any idle state with pending interrupts because they will never be serviced until the next time the cpu is woken up by some other interrupt. Its only then that the pending interrupts are replayed. This can result in device timeouts or warnings about this cpu being stuck. This patch fixes ths issue by ensuring that cpus check for pending interrupts just before entering any idle state as long as they are not in the path of split core operations. Signed-off-by:

The commit 71ec7c55 introduced the magic symbol ".TOC." for ELFv2 ABI. This symbol is built manually and has no CRC value computed. A zero value is put in the CRC section to avoid modpost complaining about a missing CRC. Unfortunately, this breaks the kernel module loading when the kernel is relocated (kdump case for instance) because of the relocation applied to the kcrctab values. This patch compute a CRC value for the TOC symbol which will match the one compute by the kernel when it is relocated - aka '0 - relocate_start' done in maybe_relocated called by check_version (module.c).

In commit 27f44888 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines. This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running in hypervisor mode. OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it. Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware. The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line was added in commit 817c21ad "Get kernel command line accross OPAL takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be removed.

The DART table allocation is registered to kmemleak via the memblock_alloc_base() call. However, the DART table is later unmapped and dart_tablebase VA no longer accessible. This patch tells kmemleak not to scan this block and avoid an unhandled paging request. Signed-off-by:

This gives us standardised success/failure output and also handles killing the test if it runs forever (2 minutes). Signed-off-by:

This variable is of the wrong type, everywhere it is used it should be an unsigned int rather than a int. Signed-off-by:
