      powerpc/32: Avoid unsupported flags with clang · 72e7bcc2
      Joel Stanley authored 
      When building for ppc32 with clang these flags are unsupported:

  -ffixed-r2 and -mmultiple

llvm's lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCRegisterInfo.cpp marks r2 as reserved on
when building for SVR4ABI and !ppc64:

  // The SVR4 ABI reserves r2 and r13
  if (Subtarget.isSVR4ABI()) {
    // We only reserve r2 if we need to use the TOC pointer. If we have no
    // explicit uses of the TOC pointer (meaning we're a leaf function with
    // no constant-pool loads, etc.) and we have no potential uses inside an
    // inline asm block, then we can treat r2 has an ordinary callee-saved
    // register.
    const PPCFunctionInfo *FuncInfo = MF.getInfo<PPCFunctionInfo>();
    if (!TM.isPPC64() || FuncInfo->usesTOCBasePtr() || MF.hasInlineAsm())
      markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R2);  // System-reserved register
    markSuperRegs(Reserved, PPC::R13); // Small Data Area pointer register
  }

This means we can safely omit -ffixed-r2 when building for 32-bit
targets.

The -mmultiple/-mno-multiple flags are not supported by clang, so
platforms that might support multiple miss out on using multiple word
instructions.

We wrap these flags in cc-option so that when Clang gains support the
kernel will be able use these flags.

Clang 8 can then build a ppc44x_defconfig which boots in Qemu:

  make CC=clang-8 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu-  ppc44x_defconfig
  ./scripts/config -e CONFIG_DEVTMPFS -d DEVTMPFS_MOUNT
  make CC=clang-8 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu-

  qemu-system-ppc -M bamboo \
   -kernel arch/powerpc/boot/zImage \
   -dtb arch/powerpc/boot/dts/bamboo.dtb \
   -initrd ~/ppc32-440-rootfs.cpio \
   -nographic -serial stdio -monitor pty -append "console=ttyS0"

This is a workaround until the issue is resolved in clang.

      powerpc/perf: Add constraints for power9 l2/l3 bus events · 59029136
      Madhavan Srinivasan authored 
      In previous generation processors, both bus events and direct
events of performance monitoring unit can be individually
programmabled and monitored in PMCs.

But in Power9, L2/L3 bus events are always available as a
"bank" of 4 events. To obtain the counts for any of the
l2/l3 bus events in a given bank, the user will have to
program PMC4 with corresponding l2/l3 bus event for that
bank.

Patch enforce two contraints incase of L2/L3 bus events.

1)Any L2/L3 event when programmed is also expected to program corresponding
PMC4 event from that group.
2)PMC4 event should always been programmed first due to group constraint
logic limitation

For ex. consider these L3 bus events

PM_L3_PF_ON_CHIP_MEM (0x460A0),
PM_L3_PF_MISS_L3 (0x160A0),
PM_L3_CO_MEM (0x260A0),
PM_L3_PF_ON_CHIP_CACHE (0x360A0),

1) This is an INVALID group for L3 Bus event monitoring,
since it is missing PMC4 event.
	perf stat -e "{r160A0,r260A0,r360A0}" < >

And this is a VALID group for L3 Bus events:
	perf stat -e "{r460A0,r160A0,r260A0,r360A0}" < >

2) This is an INVALID group for L3 Bus event monitoring,
since it is missing PMC4 event.
	perf stat -e "{r260A0,r360A0}" < >

And this is a VALID group for L3 Bus events:
	perf stat -e "{r460A0,r260A0,r360A0}" < >

3) This is an INVALID group for L3 Bus event monitoring,
since it is missing PMC4 event.
	perf stat -e "{r360A0}" < >

And this is a VALID group for L3 Bus events:
	perf stat -e "{r460A0,r360A0}" < >

Patch here implements group constraint logic suggested by Michael Ellerman.

      powerpc/perf: Fix unit_sel/cache_sel checks · 2d46d487

      Raw event code has couple of fields "unit" and "cache" in it, to capture

isa207_get_constraint() refers "unit" field to update the MMCRC (L2/L3)
Event bus control fields with "cache" bits of the raw event code.
These are power8 specific and not supported by PowerISA v3.0 pmu. So wrap
the checks to be power8 specific. Also, "cache" bit field is referred to
update MMCR1[16:17] and this check can be power8 specific.

      powerpc/mm/hash: Handle user access of kernel address gracefully · 374f3f59
      Aneesh Kumar K.V authored 
      In commit 2865d08d ("powerpc/mm: Move the DSISR_PROTFAULT sanity
check") we moved the protection fault access check before the vma
lookup. That means we hit that WARN_ON when user space accesses a
kernel address. Before that commit this was handled by find_vma() not
finding vma for the kernel address and considering that access as bad
area access.

Avoid the confusing WARN_ON and convert that to a ratelimited printk.

With the patch we now get:

      powerpc/mm: Fallback to RAM if the altmap is unusable · 9ef34630
      Oliver O'Halloran authored 
      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.

      powerpc/papr_scm: Use ibm,unit-guid as the iset cookie · 43001c52
      Oliver O'Halloran authored 
      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.

      powerpc/papr_scm: Fix DIMM device registration race · b0d65a8c
      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.

      powerpc/papr_scm: Remove endian conversions · 409dd7dc
      Oliver O'Halloran authored 
      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.

      Oliver O'Halloran authored 
      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.
