powerpc updates for 4.20
Notable changes:
- A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of fairly
complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
- Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for each
process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27% speedup for our
context switch benchmark on Power9.
- Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print more debug
information when they occur, and try to continue running by flushing the SLB
and reloading, rather than treating them as fatal.
- Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
- Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on 64-bit
Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system memory, otherwise the
percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
- Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task canary.
- Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
- Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are presented
to us as a single SMT8 core.
- A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE flags.
- Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface, allowing
guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
- Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we need to use
a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
Many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

powerpc/ftrace: Handle large kernel configs
Currently, we expect to be able to reach ftrace_caller() from all ftrace-enabled functions through a single relative branch. With large kernel configs, we see functions outside of 32MB of ftrace_caller() causing ftrace_init() to bail. In such configurations, gcc/ld emits two types of trampolines for mcount(): 1. A long_branch, which has a single branch to mcount() for functions that are one hop away from mcount(): c0000000019e8544 <00031b56.long_branch._mcount>: c0000000019e8544: 4a 69 3f ac b c00000000007c4f0 <._mcount> 2. A plt_branch, for functions that are farther away from mcount(): c0000000051f33f8 <0008ba04.plt_branch._mcount>: c0000000051f33f8: 3d 82 ff a4 addis r12,r2,-92 c0000000051f33fc: e9 8c 04 20 ld r12,1056(r12) c0000000051f3400: 7d 89 03 a6 mtctr r12 c0000000051f3404: 4e 80 04 20 bctr We can reuse those trampolines for ftrace if we can have those trampolines go to ftrace_caller() instead. However, with ABIv2, we cannot depend on r2 being valid. As such, we use only the long_branch trampolines by patching those to instead branch to ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller. In addition, we add additional trampolines around .text and .init.text to catch locations that are covered by the plt branches. This allows ftrace to work with most large kernel configurations. For now, we always patch the trampolines to go to ftrace_regs_caller, which is slightly inefficient. This can be optimized further at a later point. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

powerpc updates for 4.18
Notable changes:
- Support for split PMD page table lock on 64-bit Book3S (Power8/9).
- Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, so we properly support live
patching again.
- Add support for patching barrier_nospec in copy_from_user() and syscall entry.
- A couple of fixes for our data breakpoints on Book3S.
- A series from Nick optimising TLB/mm handling with the Radix MMU.
- Numerous small cleanups to squash sparse/gcc warnings from Mathieu Malaterre.
- Several series optimising various parts of the 32-bit code from Christophe Leroy.
- Removal of support for two old machines, "SBC834xE" and "C2K" ("GEFanuc,C2K"),
which is why the diffstat has so many deletions.
And many other small improvements & fixes.
There's a few out-of-area changes. Some minor ftrace changes OK'ed by Steve, and
a fix to our powernv cpuidle driver. Then there's a series touching mm, x86 and
fs/proc/task_mmu.c, which cleans up some details around pkey support. It was
ack'ed/reviewed by Ingo & Dave and has been in next for several weeks.

powerpc/64s: Add support for ori barrier_nospec patching
Based on the RFI patching. This is required to be able to disable the speculation barrier. Only one barrier type is supported and it does nothing when the firmware does not enable it. Also re-patching modules is not supported So the only meaningful thing that can be done is patching out the speculation barrier at boot when the user says it is not wanted.

powerpc/64s: Add support for a store forwarding barrier at kernel entry/exit
On some CPUs we can prevent a vulnerability related to store-to-load forwarding by preventing store forwarding between privilege domains, by inserting a barrier in kernel entry and exit paths. This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9 powerpc CPUs. Barriers must be inserted generally before the first load after moving to a higher privilege, and after the last store before moving to a lower privilege, HV and PR privilege transitions must be protected. Barriers are added as patch sections, with all kernel/hypervisor entry points patched, and the exit points to lower privilge levels patched similarly to the RFI flush patching. Firmware advertisement is not implemented yet, so CPU flush types are hard coded. Thanks to Michal Suchánek for bug fixes and review.

This requires further changes to linker script to KEEP some tables

includes pp32 modifications from Christophe Leroy.
When compiling powernv_defconfig with this option, the resulting
kernel is almost 400kB smaller (and still boots):

unknown reasons.

powerpc updates for 4.16
Highlights:
- Enable support for memory protection keys aka "pkeys" on Power7/8/9 when
using the hash table MMU.
- Extend our interrupt soft masking to support masking PMU interrupts as well
as "normal" interrupts, and then use that to implement local_t for a ~4x
speedup vs the current atomics-based implementation.
- A new driver "ocxl" for "Open Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface
(OpenCAPI)" devices.
- Support for new device tree properties on PowerVM to describe hotpluggable
memory and devices.
- Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 64-bit VDSO.
- Freescale updates from Scott:
"Contains fixes for CPM GPIO and an FSL PCI erratum workaround, plus a
minor cleanup patch."
As well as quite a lot of other changes all over the place, and small fixes and
cleanups as always.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

Merge branch 'fixes' into next
Merge our fixes branch from the 4.15 cycle. Unusually the fixes branch saw some significant features merged, notably the RFI flush patches, so we want the code in next to be tested against that, to avoid any surprises when the two are merged. There's also some other work on the panic handling that was reverted in fixes and we now want to do properly in next, which would conflict. And we also fix a few other minor merge conflicts. |

powerpc/64s: Add support for RFI flush of L1-D cache
On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to guest. This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other mechanisms on those CPUs. The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the address of a subsequent speculatively executed load. In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1, because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for hypervisor vs guest. In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D. If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement flush in software. For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at boot if the hypervisor tells us to. In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc. Many thanks to all of them.

powerpc64: Add .opd based function descriptor dereference
We are moving towards separate kernel and module function descriptor dereference callbacks. This patch enables it for powerpc64. For pointers that belong to the kernel - Added __start_opd and __end_opd pointers, to track the kernel .opd section address range; - Added dereference_kernel_function_descriptor(). Now we will dereference only function pointers that are within [__start_opd, __end_opd); For pointers that belong to a module - Added dereference_module_function_descriptor() to handle module function descriptor dereference. Now we will dereference only pointers that are within [module->opd.start, module->opd.end).

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Align __init_begin to 16M
For CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX align __init_begin to 16M. We use 16M since its the larger of 2M on radix and 16M on hash for our linear mapping. The plan is to have .text, .rodata and everything upto __init_begin marked as RX. Note we still have executable read only data. We could further align rodata to another 16M boundary. I've used keeping text plus rodata as read-only-executable as a trade-off to doing read-only-executable for text and read-only for rodata. We don't use multi PT_LOAD in PHDRS because we are not sure if all bootloaders support them. This patch keeps PHDRS in vmlinux.lds.S as the same they are with just one PT_LOAD for all of the kernel marked as RWX (7). mpe: What this means is the added alignment bloats the resulting binary on disk, a powernv kernel goes from 17M to 22M.

powerpc/64: Handle linker stubs in low .text code
Very large kernels may require linker stubs for branches from HEAD text code. The linker may place these stubs before the HEAD text sections, which breaks the assumption that HEAD text is located at 0 (or the .text section being located at 0x7000/0x8000 on Book3S kernels). Provide an option to create a small section just before the .text section with an empty 256 - 4 bytes, and adjust the start of the .text section to match. The linker will tend to put stubs in that section and not break our relative-to-absolute offset assumptions. This causes a small waste of space on common kernels, but allows large kernels to build and boot. For now, it is an EXPERT config option, defaulting to =n, but a reference is provided for it in the build-time check for such breakage. This is good enough for allyesconfig and custom users / hackers. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

powerpc updates for 4.12 part 1.
Highlights include:
- Larger virtual address space on 64-bit server CPUs. By default we use a 128TB
virtual address space, but a process can request access to the full 512TB by
passing a hint to mmap().
- Support for the new Power9 "XIVE" interrupt controller.
- TLB flushing optimisations for the radix MMU on Power9.
- Support for CAPI cards on Power9, using the "Coherent Accelerator Interface
Architecture 2.0".
- The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and runtime.
- Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as support for
KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.
- Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts, correctly treating
them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and using a new hypervisor call
to trigger them, all of which should aid debugging and robustness.
Many fixes and other minor enhancements.

- The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and
runtime.
- Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as
support for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.
- Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts,
correctly treating them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and
using a new hypervisor call to trigger them, all of which should
aid debugging and robustness.
- Many fixes and other minor enhancements.

nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus
When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

powerpc: Use gas sections for arranging exception vectors
Use assembler sections of fixed size and location to arrange the 64-bit Book3S exception vector code (64-bit Book3E also uses it in head_64.S for 0x0..0x100). This allows better flexibility in arranging exception code and hiding unimportant details behind macros. Gas sections can be a bit painful to use this way, mainly because the assembler does not know where they will be finally linked. Taking absolute addresses requires a bit of trickery for example, but it can be hidden behind macros for the most part. Generated code is mostly the same except locations, offsets, alignments. The "+ 0x2" is only required for the trap number / kvm exit number, which gets loaded as a constant into a register. Previously, code also used + 0x2 for label names, but we changed to using "H" to distinguish HV case for that. Remove the last vestiges of that. __after_prom_start is taking absolute address of a label in another fixed section. Newer toolchains seemed to compile this okay, but older ones do not. FIXED_SYMBOL_ABS_ADDR is more foolproof, it just takes an additional line to define. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

powerpc: Ensure .mem(init|exit).text are within _stext/_etext
In our linker script we open code the list of text sections, because we
need to include the __ftr_alt sections, which are arch-specific.
This means we can't use TEXT_TEXT as defined in vmlinux.lds.h, and so we
don't have the MEM_KEEP() logic for memory hotplug sections.
If we build the kernel with the gold linker, and with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y,
we see that functions marked __meminit can end up outside of the
_stext/_etext range, and also outside of _sinittext/_einittext, eg:
c000000000000000 T _stext
c0000000009e0000 A _etext
c0000000009e3f18 T hash__vmemmap_create_mapping
c000000000ca0000 T _sinittext
c000000000d00844 T _einittext
This causes them to not be recognised as text by is_kernel_text(), and
prevents them being patched by jump_label (and presumably ftrace/kprobes
etc.).
Fix it by adding MEM_KEEP() directives, mirroring what TEXT_TEXT does.
This isn't a problem when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n, because we use the
standard INIT_TEXT_SECTION() and EXIT_TEXT macros from vmlinux.lds.h.

arch, ftrace: for KASAN put hard/soft IRQ entries into separate sections
KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler. This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the number of unique stack traces needed to be stored. Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the __softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

powerpc/modules: Module CRC relocation fix causes perf issues
Module CRCs are implemented as absolute symbols that get resolved by
a linker script. We build an intermediate .o that contains an
unresolved symbol for each CRC. genksysms parses this .o, calculates
the CRCs and writes a linker script that "resolves" the symbols to
the calculated CRC.
Unfortunately the ppc64 relocatable kernel sees these CRCs as symbols
that need relocating and relocates them at boot. Commit

powerpc: Relocate prom_init.c on 64bit
The ppc64 kernel can get loaded at any address which means our very early init code in prom_init.c must be relocatable. We do this with a pretty nasty RELOC() macro that we wrap accesses of variables with. It is very fragile and sometimes we forget to add a RELOC() to an uncommon path or sometimes a compiler change breaks it. 32bit has a much more elegant solution where we build prom_init.c with -mrelocatable and then process the relocations manually. Unfortunately we can't do the equivalent on 64bit and we would have to build the entire kernel relocatable (-pie), resulting in a large increase in kernel footprint (megabytes of relocation data). The relocation data will be marked __initdata but it still creates more pressure on our already tight memory layout at boot. Alan Modra pointed out that the 64bit ABI is relocatable even if we don't build with -pie, we just need to relocate the TOC. This patch implements that idea and relocates the TOC entries of prom_init.c. An added bonus is there are very few relocations to process which helps keep boot times on simulators down. gcc does not put 64bit integer constants into the TOC but to be safe we may want a build time script which passes through the prom_init.c TOC entries to make sure everything looks reasonable.

powerpc: Process dynamic relocations for kernel
The following patch implements the dynamic relocation processing for PPC32 kernel. relocate() accepts the target virtual address and relocates the kernel image to the same. Currently the following relocation types are handled : R_PPC_RELATIVE R_PPC_ADDR16_LO R_PPC_ADDR16_HI R_PPC_ADDR16_HA The last 3 relocations in the above list depends on value of Symbol indexed whose index is encoded in the Relocation entry. Hence we need the Symbol Table for processing such relocations. Note: The GNU ld for ppc32 produces buggy relocations for relocation types that depend on symbols. The value of the symbols with STB_LOCAL scope should be assumed to be zero. - Alan Modra Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

percpu: Always align percpu output section to PAGE_SIZE
Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel addresses should be aligned accordingly. The calculation of the former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel image. The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter. Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking percpu memory alignment. This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE. While at it, add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching there. For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area. As the area is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference.
