We split the page table mapping on memory unplug if the
linear range was mapped with huge page mapping (for ex: 1G)
The page table splitting code has a few issues:
1. Recursive locking
--------------------
Memory unplug path takes cpu_hotplug_lock and calls stop_machine()
for splitting the mappings. However stop_machine() takes
cpu_hotplug_lock again causing deadlock.
2. BUG: sleeping function called from in_atomic() context
---------------------------------------------------------
Memory unplug path (remove_pagetable) takes init_mm.page_table_lock
spinlock and later calls stop_machine() which does wait_for_completion()
3. Bad unlock unbalance
-----------------------
Memory unplug path takes init_mm.page_table_lock spinlock and calls
stop_machine(). The stop_machine thread function runs in a different
thread context (migration thread) which tries to release and reaquire
ptl. Releasing ptl from a different thread than which acquired it
causes bad unlock unbalance.
These problems can be avoided if we avoid mapping hot-plugged memory
with 1G mapping, thereby removing the need for splitting them during
unplug. The kernel always make sure the minimum unplug request is
SUBSECTION_SIZE for device memory and SECTION_SIZE for regular memory.
In preparation for such a change remove page table splitting support.
This essentially is a revert of

This occurs when unplug is attempted for such memory which has
been mapped using memblock pages as part of early kernel page
table setup. We wouldn't have initialized the PMD or PTE fragment
count for those PMD or PTE pages.
This can be fixed by allocating memory in PAGE_SIZE granularity
during early page table allocation. This makes sure a specific
page is not shared for another memblock allocation and we can
free them correctly on removing page-table pages.
Since we now do PAGE_SIZE allocations for both PUD table and
PMD table (Note that PTE table allocation is already of PAGE_SIZE),
we end up allocating more memory for the same amount of system RAM.
Here is a comparision of how much more we need for a 64T and 2G
system after this patch:
1. 64T system
-------------
64T RAM would need 64G for vmemmap with struct page size being 64B.
128 PUD tables for 64T memory (1G mappings)
1 PUD table and 64 PMD tables for 64G vmemmap (2M mappings)
With default PUD[PMD]_TABLE_SIZE(4K), (128+1+64)*4K=772K
With PAGE_SIZE(64K) table allocations, (128+1+64)*64K=12352K
2. 2G system
------------
2G RAM would need 2M for vmemmap with struct page size being 64B.
1 PUD table for 2G memory (1G mapping)
1 PUD table and 1 PMD table for 2M vmemmap (2M mappings)
With default PUD[PMD]_TABLE_SIZE(4K), (1+1+1)*4K=12K
With new PAGE_SIZE(64K) table allocations, (1+1+1)*64K=192K

When we enter into fadump crash path via system reset we fail to update
the pstore.
On the system reset path we first update the pstore then we go for fadump
crash. But the problem here is when all the CPUs try to get the pstore
lock to initiate the pstore write, only one CPUs will acquire the lock
and proceed with the pstore write. Since it in NMI context CPUs that fail
to get lock do not wait for their turn to write to the pstore and simply
proceed with the next operation which is fadump crash. One of the CPU who
proceeded with fadump crash path triggers the crash and does not wait for
the CPU who gets the pstore lock to complete the pstore update.

unsuccessful pstore update when we hit fadump crash path via system reset.

To avoid this race condition a barrier is added on crash_fadump path, it
prevents the CPU to trigger the crash until all the online CPUs completes
their task.
A barrier is added to make sure all the secondary CPUs hit the
crash_fadump function before we initiates the crash. A timeout is kept to

pseries_update_drconf_memory() runs from a DT notifier in response to
an update to the ibm,dynamic-memory property of the
/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node. This property is an older
less compact format than the ibm,dynamic-memory-v2 property used in
most currently supported firmwares. There has never been an equivalent
function for the v2 property.
pseries_update_drconf_memory() compares the 'assigned' flag for each
LMB in the old vs new properties and adds or removes the block
accordingly. However it appears to be of no actual utility:
* Partition suspension and PRRNs are specified only to change LMBs'
NUMA affinity information. This notifier should be a no-op for those
scenarios since the assigned flags should not change.
* The memory hotplug/DLPAR path has a hack which short-circuits
execution of the notifier:
dlpar_memory()
...
rtas_hp_event = true;
drmem_update_dt()
of_update_property()
pseries_memory_notifier()
pseries_update_drconf_memory()
if (rtas_hp_event) return;
So this code only makes sense as a relic of the time when more of the
DLPAR workflow took place in user space. I don't see a purpose for it

Since the topology_updates_enabled flag is now always false, remove it
and the code which has become unreachable. This is the minimum change
that prevents 'defined but unused' warnings emitted by the compiler
after stubbing out the start/stop_topology_updates() functions.

Partition suspension, used for hibernation and migration, requires
that the OS place all but one of the LPAR's processor threads into one
of two states prior to calling the ibm,suspend-me RTAS function:
* the architected offline state (via RTAS stop-self); or
* the H_JOIN hcall, which does not return until the partition
resumes execution
Using H_CEDE as the offline mode, introduced by
commit 3aa565f53c ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU into
an appropriate offline state"), means that any threads which are
offline from Linux's point of view must be moved to one of those two
states before a partition suspension can proceed.
This was eventually addressed in commit 120496ac2d ("powerpc: Bring
all threads online prior to migration/hibernation"), which added code
to temporarily bring up any offline processor threads so they can call
H_JOIN. Conceptually this is fine, but the implementation has had
multiple races with cpu hotplug operations initiated from user
space[1][2][3], the error handling is fragile, and it generates
user-visible cpu hotplug events which is a lot of noise for a platform
feature that's supposed to minimize disruption to workloads.
With commit 3aa565f53c ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU
into an appropriate offline state") reverted, this code becomes
unnecessary, so remove it. Since any offline CPUs now are truly
offline from the platform's point of view, it is no longer necessary
to bring up CPUs only to have them call H_JOIN and then go offline
again upon resuming. Only active threads are required to call H_JOIN;
stopped threads can be left alone.

This effectively reverts commit 3aa565f53c ("powerpc/pseries: Add
hooks to put the CPU into an appropriate offline state"), which added
an offline mode for CPUs which uses the H_CEDE hcall instead of the
architected stop-self RTAS function in order to facilitate "folding"
of dedicated mode processors on PowerVM platforms to achieve energy
savings. This has been the default offline mode since its
introduction.
There's nothing about stop-self that would prevent the hypervisor from
achieving the energy savings available via H_CEDE, so the original
premise of this change appears to be flawed.
I also have encountered the claim that the transition to and from
ceded state is much faster than stop-self/start-cpu. Certainly we
would not want to use stop-self as an *idle* mode. That is what H_CEDE
is for. However, this difference is insignificant in the context of
Linux CPU hotplug, where the latency of an offline or online operation
on current systems is on the order of 100ms, mainly attributable to
all the various subsystems' cpuhp callbacks.
The cede offline mode also prevents accurate accounting, as discussed
before:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/1571740391-3251-1-git-send-email-ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com/
Unconditionally use stop-self to offline processor threads. This is
the architected method for offlining CPUs on PAPR systems.
The "cede_offline" boot parameter is rendered obsolete.
Removing this code enables the removal of the partition suspend code
which temporarily onlines all present CPUs.

Branch cache flushing code patching has inter-dependencies on both the
link stack and the count cache flushing state.
To make the code clearer and to separate the link stack and count
cache handling, split the "toggle" (setting up variables and printing
enable/disable) from the code patching.

When a FP/VEC/VSX unavailable fault loads registers and enables the
facility in the MSR, re-set the lazy restore counters to 1 rather
than incrementing them so every fault gets the same number of
restores before the next fault.
This probably shouldn't be a practical change because if a lazy counter
was non-zero then it should have been restored and would not cause a
fault when userspace tries to access it. However the code and comment
implies otherwise so that's misleading and unnecessary.

Before returning to user, if there are missing FP/VEC/VSX bits from the
user MSR then those registers had been saved and must be restored again
before use. restore_math will decide whether to restore immediately, or
skip the restore and let fp/vec/vsx unavailable faults demand load the
registers.
Each time restore_math restores one of the FP/VSX or VEC register sets
is loaded, an 8-bit counter is incremented (load_fp and load_vec). When
these wrap to zero, restore_math no longer restores that register set
until after they are next demand faulted.
It's quite usual for those counters to have different values, so if one
wraps to zero and restore_math no longer restores its registers or user
MSR bit but the other is not zero yet does not need to be restored
(because the kernel is not frequently using the FPU), then restore_math
will be called and it will also not return in the early exit check.
This causes msr_check_and_set to test and set the MSR at every kernel
exit despite having no work to do.
This can cause workloads (e.g., a NULL syscall microbenchmark) to run
fast for a time while both counters are non-zero, then slow down when
one of the counters reaches zero, then speed up again after the second
counter reaches zero. The cost is significant, about 10% slowdown on a
NULL syscall benchmark, and the jittery behaviour is very undesirable.
Fix this by having restore_math test all conditions first, and only
update MSR if we will be loading registers.

no longer necessary after commit a8318c13e7 ("powerpc/tm: Fix

the cases where restore_math has to restore if TM is active.
