This is needed so that we can support both hash and radix page table
using single kernel. Radix kernel uses a 4 level table.
We now use physical address in upper page table tree levels. Even though
they are aligned to their size, for the masked bits we use the
bit positions as per PowerISA 3.0.

Currently the FPU, VEC and VSX facilities are lazily loaded. This is not
a problem unless a process is using these facilities.
Modern versions of GCC are very good at automatically vectorising code,
new and modernised workloads make use of floating point and vector
facilities, even the kernel makes use of vectorised memcpy.
All this combined greatly increases the cost of a syscall since the
kernel uses the facilities sometimes even in syscall fast-path making it
increasingly common for a thread to take an *_unavailable exception soon
after a syscall, not to mention potentially taking all three.
The obvious overcompensation to this problem is to simply always load
all the facilities on every exit to userspace. Loading up all FPU, VEC
and VSX registers every time can be expensive and if a workload does
avoid using them, it should not be forced to incur this penalty.
An 8bit counter is used to detect if the registers have been used in the
past and the registers are always loaded until the value wraps to back
to zero.
Several versions of the assembly in entry_64.S were tested:
1. Always calling C.
2. Performing a common case check and then calling C.
3. A complex check in asm.
After some benchmarking it was determined that avoiding C in the common
case is a performance benefit (option 2). The full check in asm (option
3) greatly complicated that codepath for a negligible performance gain
and the trade-off was deemed not worth it.

fixup
Currently when threads get scheduled off they always giveup the FPU,
Altivec (VMX) and Vector (VSX) units if they were using them. When they are
scheduled back on a fault is then taken to enable each facility and load
registers. As a result explicitly disabling FPU/VMX/VSX has not been
necessary.
Future changes and optimisations remove this mandatory giveup and fault
which could cause calls such as clone() and fork() to copy threads and run
them later with FPU/VMX/VSX enabled but no registers loaded.
This patch starts the process of having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} mean that a
threads registers are hot while not having MSR_{FP,VEC,VSX} means that the
registers must be loaded. This allows for a smarter return to userspace.

LTO can cause GCC to inline some functions which have attributes set.
The act of inlining the functions can lead to GCC forgetting about the
attributes which leads to incorrect tests.
Notable example being: __attribute__((__target__("no-vsx")))
LTO can also interact strangely with custom assembly functions and cause
tests to intermittently fail.
Both these cases are hard to detect and require manual inspection of
binaries which is unlikely to happen for all tests. Furthermore, LTO
optimisations are not necessary for selftests and correctness is
paramount and as such it is best to disable LTO.
LTO can be enabled on a per test basis.

This makes a number of cleanups to handling of mapping failures during
memory hotplug on Power:
For errors creating the linear mapping for the hot-added region:
* This is now reported with EFAULT which is more appropriate than the
previous EINVAL (the failure is unlikely to be related to the
function's parameters)
* An error in this path now prints a warning message, rather than just
silently failing to add the extra memory.
* Previously a failure here could result in the region being partially
mapped. We now clean up any partial mapping before failing.
For errors creating the vmemmap for the hot-added region:
* This is now reported with EFAULT instead of causing a BUG() - this
could happen for external reason (e.g. full hash table) so it's better
to handle this non-fatally
* An error message is also printed, so the failure won't be silent
* As above a failure could cause a partially mapped region, we now
clean this up. [mpe: move htab_remove_mapping() out of #ifdef

At the moment the hpte_removebolted callback in ppc_md returns void and
will BUG_ON() if the hpte it's asked to remove doesn't exist in the first
place. This is awkward for the case of cleaning up a mapping which was
partially made before failing.
So, we add a return value to hpte_removebolted, and have it return ENOENT
in the case that the HPTE to remove didn't exist in the first place.
In the (sole) caller, we propagate errors in hpte_removebolted to its
caller to handle. However, we handle ENOENT specially, continuing to
complete the unmapping over the specified range before returning the error
to the caller.
This means that htab_remove_mapping() will work sanely on a partially
present mapping, removing any HPTEs which are present, while also returning
ENOENT to its caller in case it's important there.
There are two callers of htab_remove_mapping():
- In remove_section_mapping() we already WARN_ON() any error return,
which is reasonable - in this case the mapping should be fully
present
- In vmemmap_remove_mapping() we BUG_ON() any error. We change that to
just a WARN_ON() in the case of ENOENT, since failing to remove a
mapping that wasn't there in the first place probably shouldn't be
fatal.

Currently, the only error that htab_remove_mapping() can report is -EINVAL,
if removal of bolted HPTEs isn't implemeted for this platform. We make
a few clean ups to the handling of this:
* EINVAL isn't really the right code - there's nothing wrong with the
function's arguments - use ENODEV instead
* We were also printing a warning message, but that's a decision better
left up to the callers, so remove it
* One caller is vmemmap_remove_mapping(), which will just BUG_ON() on
error, making the warning message redundant, so no change is needed
there.
* The other caller is remove_section_mapping(). This is called in the
memory hot remove path at a point after vmemmap_remove_mapping() so
if hpte_removebolted isn't implemented, we'd expect to have already
BUG()ed anyway. Put a WARN_ON() here, in lieu of a printk() since this

This frees up bits 57-63 in the Linux PTE on 64-bit Book 3S machines.
In the 4k page case, this is done just by reducing the size of the
RPN field to 39 bits, giving 51-bit real addresses. In the 64k page
case, we had 10 unused bits in the middle of the PTE, so this moves
the RPN field down 10 bits to make use of those unused bits. This
means the RPN field is now 3 bits larger at 37 bits, giving 53-bit
real addresses in the normal case, or 49-bit real addresses for the
special 4k PFN case.
We are doing this in order to be able to move some other PTE bits
into the positions where PowerISA V3.0 processors will expect to
find them in radix-tree mode. Ultimately we will be able to move
the RPN field to lower bit positions and make it larger.

During error recovery, the device could be removed as part of the

is: if the device driver provides error_detected(), slot_reset()
and resume() callbacks, it's immune from hotplug. Otherwise,
it's going to experience partial hotplug during EEH recovery. But
the criterion isn't correct enough: mlx4_core driver for Mellanox
adapters provides error_detected(), slot_reset() callbacks, but
resume() isn't there. Those Mellanox adapters won't be to involved
in the partial hotplug.
This fixes the criterion to a practical one: adpater with driver
that provides error_detected(), slot_reset() will be immune from
partial hotplug. resume() isn't mandatory.

For release semantics, since we only need to ensure all memory accesses
that issue before must take effects before the -store- part of the

"lwsync", "sync" should be used. Therefore in __atomic_op_release() we

For acquire semantics, "lwsync" is what we only need for the similar
reason. However on the platform without "lwsync", we can use "isync"
rather than "sync" as an acquire barrier. Therefore in
__atomic_op_acquire() we use PPC_ACQUIRE_BARRIER, which is barrier() on

in the default __atomic_op_*() may be too strong, so allow architectures
to define their own helpers which can overwrite the default helpers.

Enhanced Error Handling could mean anything in the context of the entire
kernel, so change the name to reference that it is both for PCI and
powerpc.
EEH covers a bit more than the previously listed files, so add the headers
and platform-specific code to the EEH maintained section.
In addition, I am taking over the maintainership.

I spent some time trying to use kgdb and debugged my inability to
resume from kgdb_handle_breakpoint(). NIP is not incremented
and that leads to a loop in the debugger.
I've tested this lightly on a virtual instance with KDB enabled.
After the patch, I am able to get the "go" command to work as
expected.
