powerpc: Replace ASSEMBLY with ASSEMBLER in non-uapi headers

2025-09-01T07:53:29+00:00

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__ automatically when compiling assembler code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This is bad since macros starting with two underscores are names that are reserved by the C language. It can also be very confusing for the developers when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is almost a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement), apart from tweaking two comments manually in arch/powerpc/include/asm/bug.h and arch/powerpc/include/asm/kasan.h (which did not have proper underscores at the end) and fixing a checkpatch error about spaces in arch/powerpc/include/asm/spu_csa.h.

powerpc: Check only single values are passed to CPU/MMU feature checks

2024-07-11T07:31:55+00:00

cpu_has_feature()/mmu_has_feature() are only able to check a single feature at a time, but there is no enforcement of that. In fact, as fixed in the previous commit, there was code that was passing multiple values to cpu_has_feature(). So add a check that only a single feature is passed using popcount. Note that the test allows 0 or 1 bits to be set, because some code relies on cpu_has_feature(0) being false, the check with CPU_FTRS_POSSIBLE ensures that. See for example CPU_FTR_PPC_LE.

powerpc: Drop clang workaround for builtin constant checks

2024-07-11T07:31:44+00:00

The CPU/MMU feature code has build-time checks that the feature value is a builtin constant. Back when the code was added clang wasn't able to compile the checks, so an ifdef was added to avoid the checks for clang builds. See commit b5fa0f7f88ed ("powerpc: Fix build failure with clang due to BUILD_BUG_ON()") These days clang 13 and later are able to build the checks successfully, so drop the workaround.

powerpc: Add static_key_feature_checks_initialized flag

2024-04-15T02:53:39+00:00

JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECK_DEBUG used static_key_intialized to determine whether {cpu,mmu}_has_feature() is used before static keys were initialized. However, {cpu,mmu}_has_feature() should not be used before setup_feature_keys() is called but static_key_initialized is set well before this by the call to jump_label_init() in early_init_devtree(). This creates a window in which JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECK_DEBUG will not detect misuse and report errors. Add a flag specifically to indicate when {cpu,mmu}_has_feature() is safe to use.

powerpc: Add Power11 architected and raw mode

2024-02-21T12:11:00+00:00

Add CPU table entries for raw and architected mode. Most fields are copied from the Power10 table entries. CPU, MMU and user (ELF_HWCAP) features are unchanged vs P10. However userspace can detect P11 because the AT_PLATFORM value changes to "power11". The logical PVR value of 0x0F000007, passed to firmware via the ibm_arch_vec, indicates the kernel can support a P11 compatible CPU, which means at least ISA v3.1 compliant.
