      powerpc/mm: Fix hash table dump when memory is not contiguous · 9e4114b3
      Rashmica Gupta authored
      The current behaviour of the hash table dump assumes that memory is contiguous
      and iterates from the start of memory to (start + size of memory). When memory
      isn't physically contiguous, this doesn't work.
      
      If memory exists at 0-5 GB and 6-10 GB then the current approach will check if
      entries exist in the hash table from 0GB to 9GB. This patch changes the
      behaviour to iterate over any holes up to the end of memory.

      powerpc/mm: Add physical address to Linux page table dump · aaa22952
      Oliver O'Halloran authored
      The current page table dumper scans the Linux page tables and coalesces mappings
      with adjacent virtual addresses and similar PTE flags. This behaviour is
      somewhat broken when you consider the IOREMAP space where entirely unrelated
      mappings will appear to be virtually contiguous. This patch modifies the range
      coalescing so that only ranges that are both physically and virtually contiguous
      are combined. This patch also adds to the dump output the physical address at
      the start of each range.

      On Book3s we have two PTE flags used to mark cache-inhibited mappings:
      _PAGE_TOLERANT and _PAGE_NON_IDEMPOTENT. Currently the kernel page table dumper

      powerpc/tracing: Allow tracing of mmap syscalls · 9c355917
      Balbir Singh authored
      
      
      Currently sys_mmap() and sys_mmap2() (32-bit only), are not visible to the
      syscall tracing machinery. This means users are not able to see the execution of
      mmap() syscalls using the syscall tracer.
      
      Fix that by using SYSCALL_DEFINE6 for sys_mmap() and sys_mmap2() so that the
      meta-data associated with these syscalls is visible to the syscall tracer.
      
      A side-effect of this change is that the return type has changed from unsigned
      long to long. However this should have no effect, the only code in the kernel
      which uses the result of these syscalls is in the syscall return path, which is
      written in asm and treats the result as unsigned regardless.
      
      Example output:
        cat-3399  [001] ....   196.542410: sys_mmap(addr: 7fff922a0000, len: 20000, prot: 3, flags: 812, fd: 3, offset: 1b0000)
        cat-3399  [001] ....   196.542443: sys_mmap -> 0x7fff922a0000
        cat-3399  [001] ....   196.542668: sys_munmap(addr: 7fff922c0000, len: 6d2c)
        cat-3399  [001] ....   196.542677: sys_munmap -> 0x0

      powerpc/mm: Fix swapper_pg_dir size on 64-bit hash w/64K pages · 03dfee6d
      Michael Ellerman authored
      Recently in commit f6eedbba ("powerpc/mm/hash: Increase VA range to 128TB"),
      we increased H_PGD_INDEX_SIZE to 15 when we're building with 64K pages. This
      makes it larger than RADIX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE (13), which means the logic to
      calculate MAX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE in book3s/64/pgtable.h is wrong.
      
      The end result is that the PGD (Page Global Directory, ie top level page table)
      of the kernel (aka. swapper_pg_dir), is too small.
      
      This generally doesn't lead to a crash, as we don't use the full range in normal
      operation. However if we try to dump the kernel pagetables we can trigger a
      crash because we walk off the end of the pgd into other memory and eventually
      try to dereference something bogus:
      
        $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_pagetables
        Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xe8fece0000000000
        Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000072314
        cpu 0xc: Vector: 380 (Data SLB Access) at [c0000000daa13890]
            pc: c000000000072314: ptdump_show+0x164/0x430
            lr: c000000000072550: ptdump_show+0x3a0/0x430
           dar: e802cf0000000000

        SyS_read+0x6c/0x110
        system_call+0x38/0xfc
      
      The root cause is that MAX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE isn't actually computed to be
      the max of H_PGD_INDEX_SIZE or RADIX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE. To fix that move
      the calculation into asm-offsets.c where we can do it easily using
      max().

      powerpc/powernv: Recover correct PACA on wakeup from a stop on P9 DD1 · 17ed4c8f
      Gautham R. Shenoy authored
      
      
      POWER9 DD1.0 hardware has a bug where the SPRs of a thread waking up
      from stop 0,1,2 with ESL=1 can endup being misplaced in the core. Thus
      the HSPRG0 of a thread waking up from can contain the paca pointer of
      its sibling.
      
      This patch implements a context recovery framework within threads of a
      core, by provisioning space in paca_struct for saving every sibling
      threads's paca pointers. Basically, we should be able to arrive at the
      right paca pointer from any of the thread's existing paca pointer.
      
      At bootup, during powernv idle-init, we save the paca address of every
      CPU in each one its siblings paca_struct in the slot corresponding to
      this CPU's index in the core.
      
      On wakeup from a stop, the thread will determine its index in the core
      from the TIR register and recover its PACA pointer by indexing into
      the correct slot in the provisioned space in the current PACA.
      
      Furthermore, ensure that the NVGPRs are restored from the stack on the
      way out by setting the NAPSTATELOST in paca.

      powerpc/powernv/idle: Don't override default/deepest directly in kernel · f3b3f284
      Gautham R. Shenoy authored
      
      
      Currently during idle-init on power9, if we don't find suitable stop
      states in the device tree that can be used as the
      default_stop/deepest_stop, we set stop0 (ESL=1,EC=1) as the default
      stop state psscr to be used by power9_idle and deepest stop state
      which is used by CPU-Hotplug.
      
      However, if the platform firmware has not configured or enabled a stop
      state, the kernel should not make any assumptions and fallback to a
      default choice.
      
      If the kernel uses a stop state that is not configured by the platform
      firmware, it may lead to further failures which should be avoided.
      
      In this patch, we modify the init code to ensure that the kernel uses
      only the stop states exposed by the firmware through the device
      tree. When a suitable default stop state isn't found, we disable
      ppc_md.power_save for power9. Similarly, when a suitable
      deepest_stop_state is not found in the device tree exported by the
      firmware, fall back to the default busy-wait loop in the CPU-Hotplug
      code.

      powerpc/powernv/smp: Add busy-wait loop as fall back for CPU-Hotplug · 90061231
      Gautham R. Shenoy authored
      
      
      Currently, the powernv cpu-offline function assumes that platform idle
      states such as stop on POWER9, winkle/sleep/nap on POWER8 are always
      available. On POWER8, it picks nap as the default state if other deep
      idle states like sleep/winkle are not available and enabled in the
      platform.
      
      On POWER9, nap is not available and all idle states are managed by
      STOP instruction.  The parameters to the idle state are passed through
      processor stop status control register (PSSCR).  Hence as such
      executing STOP would take parameters from current PSSCR. We do not
      want to make any assumptions in kernel on what STOP states and PSSCR
      features are configured by the platform.
      
      Ideally platform will configure a good set of stop states that can be
      used in the kernel.  We would like to start with a clean slate, if the
      platform choose to not configure any state or there is an error in
      platform firmware that lead to no stop states being configured or
      allowed to be requested.
      
      This patch adds a fallback method for CPU-Hotplug that is similar to
      snooze loop at idle where the threads are left to spin at low priority
      and hence reduce the cycles consumed.
      
      This is a safe fallback mechanism in the case when no stop state would
      be requested if the platform firmware did not configure them most
      likely due to an error condition.
      
      Requesting a stop state when the platform has not configured them or
      enabled them would lead to further error conditions which could be
      difficult to debug.

      powerpc/mm/radix: Don't do page walk cache flush when doing full mm flush · f6b0df55
      Aneesh Kumar K.V authored
      
      
      For fullmm tlb flush, we do a flush with RIC_FLUSH_ALL which will invalidate all
      related caches (radix__tlb_flush()). Hence the pwc flush is not needed.

      powerpc/smp: Remove migrate_irq() custom implementation · a978e139
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      
      
      Some powerpc platforms use this to move IRQs away from a CPU being
      unplugged. This function has several bugs such as not taking the right
      locks or failing to NULL check pointers.
      
      There's a new generic function doing exactly the same thing without all
      the bugs, so let's use it instead.
      
      mpe: The obvious place for the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION is on
      HOTPLUG_CPU, but that doesn't work. On some configs PM_SLEEP_SMP will
      select HOTPLUG_CPU even though its dependencies are not met, which means
      the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION doesn't happen. That leads to the
      build breaking. Fix it by moving the select of GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION to
      SMP.

      powerpc/powernv: Add OPAL exports attributes to sysfs · 11fe909d
      Matt Brown authored
      
      
      New versions of OPAL have a device node /ibm,opal/firmware/exports, each
      property of which describes a range of memory in OPAL that Linux might
      want to export to userspace for debugging.
      
      This patch adds a sysfs file under 'opal/exports' for each property
      found there, and makes it read-only by root.

      powerpc/prom: Increase minimum RMA size to 512MB · 687da8fc
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
      
      
      When booting very large systems with a large initrd, we run out of
      space early in boot for either RTAS or the flattened device tree (FDT).
      Boot fails with messages like:
      
      	Could not allocate memory for RTAS
      or
      	No memory for flatten_device_tree (no room)
      
      Increasing the minimum RMA size to 512MB fixes the problem. This
      should not have an impact on smaller LPARs (with 256MB memory),
      as the firmware will cap the RMA to the memory assigned to the LPAR.
      
      Fix is based on input/discussions with Michael Ellerman. Thanks to
      Praveen K. Pandey for testing on a large system.

      powerpc/powernv: Introduce address translation services for Nvlink2 · 1ab66d1f
      Alistair Popple authored
      
      
      Nvlink2 supports address translation services (ATS) allowing devices
      to request address translations from an mmu known as the nest MMU
      which is setup to walk the CPU page tables.
      
      To access this functionality certain firmware calls are required to
      setup and manage hardware context tables in the nvlink processing unit
      (NPU). The NPU also manages forwarding of TLB invalidates (known as
      address translation shootdowns/ATSDs) to attached devices.
      
      This patch exports several methods to allow device drivers to register
      a process id (PASID/PID) in the hardware tables and to receive
      notification of when a device should stop issuing address translation
      requests (ATRs). It also adds a fault handler to allow device drivers
      to demand fault pages in.

      powerpc/mm: Enable mappings above 128TB · f4ea6dcb
      Aneesh Kumar K.V authored
      
      
      Not all user space application is ready to handle wide addresses. It's
      known that at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to
      encode their information. It collides with valid pointers with 512TB
      addresses and leads to crashes.
      
      To mitigate this, we are not going to allocate virtual address space
      above 128TB by default.
      
      But userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by
      specifying hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 128TB.
      
      If hint address set above 128TB, but MAP_FIXED is not specified, we try
      to look for unmapped area by specified address. If it's already
      occupied, we look for unmapped area in *full* address space, rather than
      from 128TB window.
      
      This approach helps to easily make application's memory allocator aware
      about large address space without manually tracking allocated virtual
      address space.
      
      This is going to be a per mmap decision. ie, we can have some mmaps with
      larger addresses and other that do not.
      
      A sample memory layout looks like:
