After handling a transactional FP, Altivec or VSX unavailable exception. The return to userspace code will detect that the TIF_RESTORE_TM bit is set and call restore_tm_state(). restore_tm_state() will call restore_math() to ensure that the correct facilities are loaded. This means that all the loadup code in {fp,altivec,vsx}_unavailable_tm() is doing pointless work and can simply be removed.

Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec means that a userspace process can be sent to userspace with FP or Altivec disabled and loaded only as required (by way of an FP/Altivec unavailable exception). Transactional Memory complicates this situation as a transaction could be started without FP/Altivec being loaded up. This causes the hardware to checkpoint incorrect registers. Handling FP/Altivec unavailable exceptions while a thread is transactional requires a reclaim and recheckpoint to ensure the CPU has correct state for both sets of registers. tm_reclaim() has optimisations to not always save the FP/Altivec registers to the checkpointed save area. This was originally done because the caller might have information that the checkpointed registers aren't valid due to lazy save and restore. We've also been a little vague as to how tm_reclaim() leaves the FP/Altivec state since it doesn't necessarily always save it to the thread struct. This has lead to an (incorrect) assumption that it leaves the checkpointed state on the CPU. tm_recheckpoint() has similar optimisations in reverse. It may not always reload the checkpointed FP/Altivec registers from the thread struct before the trecheckpoint. It is therefore quite unclear where it expects to get the state from. This didn't help with the assumption made about tm_reclaim(). These optimisations sit in what is by definition a slow path. If a process has to go through a reclaim/recheckpoint then its transaction will be doomed on returning to userspace. This mean that the process will be unable to complete its transaction and be forced to its failure handler. This is already an out if line case for userspace. Furthermore, the cost of copying 64 times 128 bits from registers isn't very long[0] (at all) on modern processors. As such it appears these optimisations have only served to increase code complexity and are unlikely to have had a measurable performance impact. Our transactional memory handling has been riddled with bugs. A cause of this has been difficulty in following the code flow, code complexity has not been our friend here. It makes sense to remove these optimisations in favour of a (hopefully) more stable implementation. This patch does mean that some times the assembly will needlessly save 'junk' registers which will subsequently get overwritten with the correct value by the C code which calls the assembly function. This small inefficiency is far outweighed by the reduction in complexity for general TM code, context switching paths, and transactional facility unavailable exception handler. 0: I tried to measure it once for other work and found that it was hiding in the noise of everything else I was working with. I find it exceedingly likely this will be the case here. Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec means that a userspace process can be sent to userspace with FP or Altivec disabled and loaded only as required (by way of an FP/Altivec unavailable exception). Transactional Memory complicates this situation as a transaction could be started without FP/Altivec being loaded up. This causes the hardware to checkpoint incorrect registers. Handling FP/Altivec unavailable exceptions while a thread is transactional requires a reclaim and recheckpoint to ensure the CPU has correct state for both sets of registers. Lazy save and restore of FP/Altivec cannot be done if a process is transactional. If a facility was enabled it must remain enabled whenever a thread is transactional. Commit dc16b553 ("powerpc: Always restore FPU/VEC/VSX if hardware transactional memory in use") ensures that the facilities are always enabled if a thread is transactional. A bug in the introduced code may cause it to inadvertently enable a facility that was (and should remain) disabled. The problem with this extraneous enablement is that the registers for the erroneously enabled facility have not been correctly recheckpointed - the recheckpointing code assumed the facility would remain disabled. Further compounding the issue, the transactional {fp,altivec,vsx} unavailable code has been incorrectly using the MSR to enable facilities. The presence of the {FP,VEC,VSX} bit in the regs->msr simply means if the registers are live on the CPU, not if the kernel should load them before returning to userspace. This has worked due to the bug mentioned above. This causes transactional threads which return to their failure handler to observe incorrect checkpointed registers. Perhaps an example will help illustrate the problem: A userspace process is running and uses both FP and Altivec registers. This process then continues to run for some time without touching either sets of registers. The kernel subsequently disables the facilities as part of lazy save and restore. The userspace process then performs a tbegin and the CPU checkpoints 'junk' FP and Altivec registers. The process then performs a floating point instruction triggering a fp unavailable exception in the kernel. The kernel then loads the FP registers - and only the FP registers. Since the thread is transactional it must perform a reclaim and recheckpoint to ensure both the checkpointed registers and the transactional registers are correct. It then (correctly) enables MSR[FP] for the process. Later (on exception exist) the kernel also (inadvertently) enables MSR[VEC]. The process is then returned to userspace. Since the act of loading the FP registers doomed the transaction we know CPU will fail the transaction, restore its checkpointed registers, and return the process to its failure handler. The problem is that we're now running with Altivec enabled and the 'junk' checkpointed registers are restored. The kernel had only recheckpointed FP. This patch solves this by only activating FP/Altivec if userspace was using them when it entered the kernel and not simply if the process is transactional.

The OPAL calls performed in this driver shouldn't be using opal_async_wait_response() as this performs a wait_event() which, on long running OPAL calls could result in hung task warnings. wait_event() prevents timely signal delivery which is also undesirable. This patch also attempts to quieten down the use of dev_err() when errors haven't actually occurred and also to return better information up the stack rather than always -EIO.

This patch adds an _interruptible version of opal_async_wait_response(). This is useful when a long running OPAL call is performed on behalf of a userspace thread, for example, the opal_flash_{read,write,erase} functions performed by the powernv-flash MTD driver. It is foreseeable that these functions would take upwards of two minutes causing the wait_event() to block long enough to cause hung task warnings. Furthermore, wait_event_interruptible() is preferable as otherwise there is no way for signals to stop the process which is going to be confusing in userspace.

Parallel sensor reads could run out of async tokens due to opal_get_sensor_data grabbing tokens but then doing the sensor read behind a mutex, essentially serializing the (possibly asynchronous and relatively slow) sensor read. It turns out that the mutex isn't needed at all, not only should the OPAL interface allow concurrent reads, the implementation is certainly safe for that, and if any sensor we were reading from somewhere isn't, doing the mutual exclusion in the kernel is the wrong place to do it, OPAL should be doing it for the kernel. So, remove the mutex. Additionally, we shouldn't be printing out an error when we don't get a token as the only way this should happen is if we've been interrupted in down_interruptible() on the semaphore.

Future work will add an opal_async_wait_response_interruptible() which will call wait_event_interruptible(). This work requires extra token state to be tracked as wait_event_interruptible() can return and the caller could release the token before OPAL responds. Currently token state is tracked with two bitfields which are 64 bits big but may not need to be as OPAL informs Linux how many async tokens there are. It also uses an array indexed by token to store response messages for each token. The bitfields make it difficult to add more state and also provide a hard maximum as to how many tokens there can be - it is possible that OPAL will inform Linux that there are more than 64 tokens. Rather than add a bitfield to track the extra state, rework the internals slightly.

The current code checks the completion map to look for the first token that is complete. In some cases, a completion can come in but the token can still be on lease to the caller processing the completion. If this completed but unreleased token is the first token found in the bitmap by another tasks trying to acquire a token, then the __test_and_set_bit call will fail since the token will still be on lease. The acquisition will then fail with an EBUSY. This patch reorganizes the acquisition code to look at the opal_async_token_map for an unleased token. If the token has no lease it must have no outstanding completions so we should never see an EBUSY, unless we have leased out too many tokens. Since opal_async_get_token_inrerruptible is protected by a semaphore, we will practically never see EBUSY anymore.

Presently the PSL9 specific cxl_stop_trace_psl9() only stops the RX0 traces on the CXL adapter when a PSL error irq is triggered. The patch updates the function to stop all the traces arrays and move them to the FIN state. The implementation issues the mmio to TRACECFG register to stop the trace array iff it already not in FIN state. This prevents the issue of trace data being reset in case of multiple stop mmio issued for a single trace array. Also the patch does some refactoring of existing cxl_stop_trace_psl9() and cxl_stop_trace_psl8() functions by moving them to 'pci.c' from 'debugfs.c' file and marking them as static.

Currently when we take a TM Bad Thing program check exception, we search the bug table to see if the program check was generated by a WARN/WARN_ON etc. That makes no sense, the WARN macros use trap instructions, which should never generate a TM Bad Thing exception. If they ever did that would be a bug and we should oops. We do have some hand-coded bugs in tm.S, using EMIT_BUG_ENTRY, but those are all BUGs not WARNs, and they all use trap instructions anyway. Almost certainly this check was incorrectly copied from the REASON_TRAP handling in the same function. Remove it.

Currently if the hardware supports the radix MMU we will use it, *unless* "disable_radix" is passed on the kernel command line. However some users would like the reverse semantics. ie. The kernel uses the hash MMU by default, unless radix is explicitly requested on the command line. So add a CONFIG option to choose whether we use radix by default or not, and expand the disable_radix command line option to allow "disable_radix=no" which *enables* radix.

CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 indicates support for the "standard" powerpc MMU on 64-bit CPUs. The "standard" MMU refers to the hash page table MMU found in "server" processors, from IBM mainly. Currently CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is == CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. While it's annoying to have two symbols that always have the same value, it's not quite annoying enough to bother removing one. However with the arrival of Power9, we now have the situation where CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is enabled, but the kernel is running using the Radix MMU - *not* the "standard" MMU. So it is now actively confusing to use it, because it implies that code is disabled or inactive when the Radix MMU is in use, however that is not necessarily true. So s/CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64/CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/, and do some minor formatting updates of some of the affected lines. This will be a pain for backports, but c'est la vie.

In order to make generic IOV code work, the physical function IOV BAR should start from offset of the first VF. Since M64 segments share PE number space across PHB, and some PEs may be in use at the time when IOV is enabled, the existing code shifts the IOV BAR to the index of the first PE/VF. This creates a hole in IOMEM space which can be potentially taken by some other device. This reserves a temporary hole on a parent and releases it when IOV is disabled; the temporary resources are stored in pci_dn to avoid kmalloc/free.

When a vdevice is DLPAR removed from the system the vio subsystem doesn't bother unmapping the virq from the irq_domain. As a result we have a virq mapped to a hardware irq that is no longer valid for the irq_domain. A side effect is that we are left with /proc/irq/<irq#> affinity entries, and attempts to modify the smp_affinity of the irq will fail. In the following observed example the kernel log is spammed by ics_rtas_set_affinity errors after the removal of a VSCSI adapter. This is a result of irqbalance trying to adjust the affinity every 10 seconds. rpadlpar_io: slot U8408.E8E.10A7ACV-V5-C25 removed ics_rtas_set_affinity: ibm,set-xive irq=655385 returns -3 ics_rtas_set_affinity: ibm,set-xive irq=655385 returns -3 This patch fixes the issue by calling irq_dispose_mapping() on the virq of the viodev on unregister.

According to the architecture, the process table entry cache must be flushed with tlbie RIC=2. Currently the process table entry is set to invalid right before the PID is returned to the allocator, with no invalidation. This works on existing implementations that are known to not cache the process table entry for any except the current PIDR. It is architecturally correct and cleaner to invalidate with RIC=2 after clearing the process table entry and before the PID is returned to the allocator. This can be done in arch_exit_mmap that runs before the final flush, and to ensure the final flush (fullmm) is always a RIC=2 variant.

This added a special case syscall number 0x1ebe, which is caught very early in the system call exception and switches endian with as little overhead as possible. See commit 745a14cc ("[POWERPC] Add fast little-endian switch system call") for full details. Although it is fast, it's also completely non standard. The "syscall number" is out of the range of normal syscalls, it can't be traced or audited, and it's a bit of a wart. To the best of our knowledge it was only used by one program, now long since discontinued. So in an effort to shake out any current users, put it behind a config option, and make it default n. If anyone *is* using it they can quickly reinstate it with a rebuild, and we can flip it to default y. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
