There is no guarantee that the various isync's involved with
the context switch will order the update of the CPU mask with
the first TLB entry for the new context being loaded by the HW.
Be safe here and add a memory barrier to order any subsequent
load/store which may bring entries into the TLB.
The corresponding barrier on the other side already exists as
pte updates use pte_xchg() which uses __cmpxchg_u64 which has
a sync after the atomic operation.

The Radix MMU translation tree as defined in ISA v3.0 contains two
different types of entry, directories and leaves. Leaves are
identified by _PAGE_PTE being set.
The formats of the two entries are different, with the directory
entries containing no spare bits for use by software. In particular
the bit we use for _PAGE_DEVMAP is not reserved for software, and is
part of the NLB (Next Level Base) field, essentially the address of
the next level in the tree.
Note that the Linux pte_t is not == _PAGE_PTE. A huge page pmd
entry (or devmap!) is also a leaf and so has _PAGE_PTE set, even
though we use a pmd_t for it in Linux.
The fix is to ensure that the pmd/pte_devmap() confirm they are
looking at a leaf entry (_PAGE_PTE) as well as checking _PAGE_DEVMAP.

There's a somewhat architectural issue with Radix MMU and KVM.
When coming out of a guest with AIL (Alternate Interrupt Location, ie,
MMU enabled), we start executing hypervisor code with the PID register
still containing whatever the guest has been using.
The problem is that the CPU can (and will) then start prefetching or
speculatively load from whatever host context has that same PID (if
any), thus bringing translations for that context into the TLB, which
Linux doesn't know about.
This can cause stale translations and subsequent crashes.
Fixing this in a way that is neither racy nor a huge performance
impact is difficult. We could just make the host invalidations always
use broadcast forms but that would hurt single threaded programs for
example.
We chose to fix it instead by partitioning the PID space between guest
and host. This is possible because today Linux only use 19 out of the
20 bits of PID space, so existing guests will work if we make the host
use the top half of the 20 bits space.
We additionally add support for a property to indicate to Linux the
size of the PID register which will be useful if we eventually have
processors with a larger PID space available.
There is still an issue with malicious guests purposefully setting the
PID register to a value in the hosts PID range. Hopefully future HW
can prevent that, but in the meantime, we handle it with a pair of
kludges:
- On the way out of a guest, before we clear the current VCPU in the
PACA, we check the PID and if it's outside of the permitted range
we flush the TLB for that PID.
- When context switching, if the mm is "new" on that CPU (the
corresponding bit was set for the first time in the mm cpumask), we
check if any sibling thread is in KVM (has a non-NULL VCPU pointer
in the PACA). If that is the case, we also flush the PID for that
CPU (core).
This second part is needed to handle the case where a process is
migrated (or starts a new pthread) on a sibling thread of the CPU
coming out of KVM, as there's a window where stale translations can
exist before we detect it and flush them out.
A future optimization could be added by keeping track of whether the
PID has ever been used and avoid doing that for completely fresh PIDs.
We could similarily mark PIDs that have been the subject of a global
invalidation as "fresh". But for now this will do.

debug: Fix WARN_ON_ONCE() for modules

Mike Galbraith reported a situation where a WARN_ON_ONCE() call in DRM
code turned into an oops. As it turns out, WARN_ON_ONCE() seems to be
completely broken when called from a module.
The bug was introduced with the following commit:
19d436268dde ("debug: Add _ONCE() logic to report_bug()")
That commit changed WARN_ON_ONCE() to move its 'once' logic into the bug
trap handler. It requires a writable bug table so that the BUGFLAG_DONE
bit can be written to the flags to indicate the first warning has
occurred.
The bug table was made writable for vmlinux, which relies on
vmlinux.lds.S and vmlinux.lds.h for laying out the sections. However,
it wasn't made writable for modules, which rely on the ELF section
header flags.

Currently even with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX we leave the __init text marked
executable after init, which is bad.
Add a hook to mark it NX (no-execute) before we free it, and implement
it for radix and hash.
Note that we use __init_end as the end address, not _einittext,
because overlaps_kernel_text() uses __init_end, because there are
additional executable sections other than .init.text between
__init_begin and __init_end.
Tested on radix and hash with:

semantic
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based
hardlockup detector.
The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going through
perf. Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that would
prevent the perf detector from working in those regions.
Additionally, implement a SMP based detector where all CPUs watch one
another by pinging a shared cpumask. This is because powerpc Book3S
does not have a true periodic local NMI, but some platforms do implement
a true NMI IPI.
If a CPU is stuck with interrupts hard disabled, the soft-NMI watchdog
does not work, but the SMP watchdog will. Even on platforms without a
true NMI IPI to get a good trace from the stuck CPU, other CPUs will
notice the lockup sufficiently to report it and panic.

Although it's not documented anywhere, there is an expectation that
atomic64_inc_not_zero() returns a result which fits in an int. This is
the behaviour implemented on all arches except powerpc.
This has caused at least one bug in practice, in the percpu-refcount
code, where the long result from our atomic64_inc_not_zero() was
truncated to an int leading to lost references and stuck systems. That
was worked around in that code in commit 966d2b04e070 ("percpu-refcount:
fix reference leak during percpu-atomic transition").
To the best of my grepping abilities there are no other callers
in-tree which truncate the value, but we should fix it anyway. Because
the breakage is subtle and potentially very harmful I'm also tagging
it for stable.
Code generation is largely unaffected because in most cases the
callers are just using the result for a test anyway. In particular the
case of fget() that was mentioned in commit a6cf7ed5119f
("powerpc/atomic: Implement atomic*_inc_not_zero") generates exactly
the same code.

The workaround for the CELL timebase bug does not correctly mark cr0 as

Now that explicitly executed loaders are loaded in the mmap region, we
have more freedom to decide where we position PIE binaries in the
address space to avoid possible collisions with mmap or stack regions.
For 64-bit, align to 4GB to allow runtimes to use the entire 32-bit
address space for 32-bit pointers. On 32-bit use 4MB, which is the
traditional x86 minimum load location, likely to avoid historically
requiring a 4MB page table entry when only a portion of the first 4MB
would be used (since the NULL address is avoided).

POWER9 supports hugepages of size 2M and 1G in radix MMU mode. This
patch enables the usage of 1G page size for hugetlbfs. This also update
the helper such we can do 1G page allocation at runtime.
We still don't enable 1G page size on DD1 version. This is to avoid
doing workaround mentioned in commit 6d3a0379ebdc ("powerpc/mm: Add
radix__tlb_flush_pte_p9_dd1()").

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

Currently, we assume that the function pointer we receive in
ppc_function_entry() points to a function descriptor. However, this is
not always the case. In particular, assembly symbols without the right
annotation do not have an associated function descriptor. Some of these
symbols are added to the kprobe blacklist using _ASM_NOKPROBE_SYMBOL().
When such addresses are subsequently processed through
arch_deref_entry_point() in populate_kprobe_blacklist(), we see the
below errors during bootup:
[ 0.663963] Failed to find blacklist at 7d9b02a648029b6c
[ 0.663970] Failed to find blacklist at a14d03d0394a0001

[ 0.663977] Failed to find blacklist at 7d5302a6f94d00b0
Fix this by checking if the function pointer we receive in
ppc_function_entry() already points to kernel text. If so, we just
return it as is. If not, we assume that this is a function descriptor
and proceed to dereference it.

This patch exports a in-kernel 'library' API which can be called by
other drivers to help interacting with an IBM XSL on a POWER9 system.
The XSL (Translation Service Layer) is a stripped down version of the
PSL (Power Service Layer) used in some cards such as the Mellanox CX5.
Like the PSL, it implements the CAIA architecture, but has a number
of differences, mostly in it's implementation dependent registers.
The XSL also uses a special DMA cxl mode, which uses a slightly
different init sequence for the CAPP and PHB.

Since commit b009031f74da ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Take out virtual
core piggybacking code", 2016-09-15), we only have at most one
vcore per subcore. Previously, the fact that there might be more
than one vcore per subcore meant that we had the notion of a
"master vcore", which was the vcore that controlled thread 0 of
the subcore. We also needed a list per subcore in the core_info
struct to record which vcores belonged to each subcore. Now that
there can only be one vcore in the subcore, we can replace the
list with a simple pointer and get rid of the notion of the
master vcore (and in fact treat every vcore as a master vcore).
We can also get rid of the subcore_vm[] field in the core_info
struct since it is never read.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
"Hopefully the last two powerpc fixes for 4.12.
The CXL one is larger than I'd usually send at rc7, but it fixes new

actually sent a few weeks back but got blocked in testing behind
another fix that was causing issues.
We are still tracking one crash in v4.12-rc7, but only one person has
reproduced it and the commit identified by bisect doesn't touch any of
the relevant code, so I think it's 50/50 whether that commit is
actually the problem or it's some code layout / toolchain issue.

define a ->mapping_error method for all IOMMU based dma operation
instances. The direct ops don't ever return an error and don't
need a ->mapping_error method.

To register fadump, boot memory area - the size of low memory chunk that
is required for a kernel to boot successfully when booted with restricted
memory, is assumed to have no holes. But this memory area is currently
not protected from hot-remove operations. So, fadump could fail to
re-register after a memory hot-remove operation, if memory is removed
from boot memory area. To avoid this, ensure that memory from boot
memory area is not hot-removed when fadump is registered.

Larry Finger reported that his Powerbook G4 was no longer booting with v4.12-rc,
userspace was up but giving weird errors such as:
udevd[64]: starting version 175
udevd[64]: Unable to receive ctrl message: Bad address.
modprobe: chdir(4.12-rc1): No such file or directory
He bisected the problem to commit 3448890c32c3 ("powerpc: get rid of zeroing,
switch to RAW_COPY_USER").
Al identified that the problem is actually a miscompilation by GCC 4.6.3, which
is exposed by the above commit.
Al also pointed out that inlining copy_to/from_user() is probably of little or
no benefit, which is correct. Using Anton's copy_to_user benchmark, with a
pathological single byte copy, we see a small increase in performance
by *removing* inlining:
Before (inlined):
# time ./copy_to_user -w -l 1 -i 10000000 ( x 3 )
real 0m22.063s
real 0m22.059s
real 0m22.076s
After:
# time ./copy_to_user -w -l 1 -i 10000000 ( x 3 )
real 0m21.325s
real 0m21.299s
real 0m21.364s
So as a small performance improvement and to avoid the miscompilation, drop
inlining copy_to/from_user() on 32-bit.

Add a trace point for tlbie(l) (Translation Lookaside Buffer Invalidate
Entry (Local)) instructions.
The tlbie instruction has changed over the years, so not all versions
accept the same operands. Use the ISA v3 field operands because they are
the most verbose, we may change them in future.
Example output:
qemu-system-ppc-5371 [016] 1412.369519: tlbie:
tlbie with lpid 0, local 1, rb=67bd8900174c11c1, rs=0, ric=0 prs=0 r=0
