Because there may be some performance overhead of the RFI flush, add
kernel command line options to disable it.
We add a sensibly named 'no_rfi_flush' option, but we also hijack the
x86 option 'nopti'. The RFI flush is not the same as KPTI, but if we
see 'nopti' we can guess that the user is trying to avoid any overhead
of Meltdown mitigations, and it means we don't have to educate every
one about a different command line option.
Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
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.

OPAL boot does not insert secondaries at 0x60 to wait at the secondary
hold spinloop. Instead they are started later, and inserted at
generic_secondary_smp_init(), which is after the secondary hold
spinloop.
Avoid waiting on this spinloop when booting with OPAL firmware. This
wait always times out that case.
This saves 100ms boot time on powernv, and 10s of seconds of real time

This fixes a couple more bits of fallout from the new hard lockup watchdog
patch.
It restores the required hw_nmi_get_sample_period() function for the
perf watchdog, and removes some function declarations on 64e that are only
defined for 64s. This fixes the 64e build when the hardlockup detector is
enabled.
It restores the default behaviour of disabling the perf watchdog, and also
fixes disabling the 64s watchdog when running as a guest.

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.

Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split
HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.
LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming
interfaces for the lockup detectors.
An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.
Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the
minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and
does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces.
sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the
interfaces, but not fully yet. It should probably be converted to a full
HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

Emergency stacks have their thread_info mostly uninitialised, which in
particular means garbage preempt_count values.
Emergency stack code runs with interrupts disabled entirely, and is
used very rarely, so this has been unnoticed so far. It was found by a
proposed new powerpc watchdog that takes a soft-NMI directly from the
masked_interrupt handler and using the emergency stack. That crashed
at BUG_ON(in_nmi()) in nmi_enter(). preempt_count()s were found to be
garbage.
To fix this, zero the entire THREAD_SIZE allocation, and initialize
the thread_info.

In commit 8c27226119 ("powerpc/numa: Enable USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID"), we
switched to the generic implementation of cpu_to_node(), which uses a percpu
variable to hold the NUMA node for each CPU.
Unfortunately we neglected to notice that we use cpu_to_node() in the allocation
of our percpu areas, leading to a chicken and egg problem. In practice what
happens is when we are setting up the percpu areas, cpu_to_node() reports that
all CPUs are on node 0, so we allocate all percpu areas on node 0.
This is visible in the dmesg output, as all pcpu allocs being in group 0:
pcpu-alloc: [0] 00 01 02 03 [0] 04 05 06 07
pcpu-alloc: [0] 08 09 10 11 [0] 12 13 14 15
pcpu-alloc: [0] 16 17 18 19 [0] 20 21 22 23
pcpu-alloc: [0] 24 25 26 27 [0] 28 29 30 31
pcpu-alloc: [0] 32 33 34 35 [0] 36 37 38 39
pcpu-alloc: [0] 40 41 42 43 [0] 44 45 46 47
To fix it we need an early_cpu_to_node() which can run prior to percpu being
setup. We already have the numa_cpu_lookup_table we can use, so just plumb it
in. With the patch dmesg output shows two groups, 0 and 1:
pcpu-alloc: [0] 00 01 02 03 [0] 04 05 06 07
pcpu-alloc: [0] 08 09 10 11 [0] 12 13 14 15
pcpu-alloc: [0] 16 17 18 19 [0] 20 21 22 23
pcpu-alloc: [1] 24 25 26 27 [1] 28 29 30 31
pcpu-alloc: [1] 32 33 34 35 [1] 36 37 38 39
pcpu-alloc: [1] 40 41 42 43 [1] 44 45 46 47
We can also check the data_offset in the paca of various CPUs, with the fix we
see:
CPU 0: data_offset = 0x0ffe8b0000
CPU 24: data_offset = 0x1ffe5b0000
And we can see from dmesg that CPU 24 has an allocation on node 1:
node 0: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000fffffffff]
node 1: [mem 0x0000001000000000-0x0000001fffffffff]

The system reset interrupt is used for crash/debug situations, so it is
desirable to have as little impact on the normal state of the system as
possible.
Currently it uses the current kernel stack to process the exception.
This stores into the stack which may be involved with the crash. The
stack pointer may be corrupted, or it may have overflowed.
Avoid or minimise these problems by creating a dedicated NMI stack for
the system reset interrupt to use.

On Power8 & Power9 the early CPU inititialisation in __init_HFSCR()
turns on HFSCR[TM] (Hypervisor Facility Status and Control Register
[Transactional Memory]), but that doesn't take into account that TM
might be disabled by CPU features, or disabled by the kernel being built
with CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=n.
So later in boot, when we have setup the CPU features, clear HSCR[TM] if
the TM CPU feature has been disabled. We use CPU_FTR_TM_COMP to account
for the CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM=n case.
Without this a KVM guest might try use TM, even if told not to, and
cause an oops in the host kernel. Typically the oops is seen in
__kvmppc_vcore_entry() and may or may not be fatal to the host, but is
always bad news.
In practice all shipping CPU revisions do support TM, and all host
kernels we are aware of build with TM support enabled, so no one should
actually be able to hit this in the wild.

Commit 2965faa5e0 ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.
Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

Commit d3cbff1b5 "powerpc: Put exception configuration in a common place"
broke the setting of the AIL bit (which enables taking exceptions with
the MMU still on) on all processors, moving it incorrectly to a function
called only on the boot CPU. This was correct for the guest case but
not when running in hypervisor mode.
This fixes it by partially reverting that commit, putting the setting
back in cpu_ready_for_interrupts()

Up until now we needed to do the MMU init before feature patching,
because part of the MMU init was scanning the device tree and setting
and/or clearing some MMU feature bits.
Now that we have split that MMU feature modification out into routines
called from early_init_devtree() (called earlier) we can now do feature
patching before calling MMU init.
The advantage of this is it means the remainder of the MMU init runs
with the final set of features which will apply for the rest of the life
of the system. This means we don't have to special case anything called
from MMU init to deal with a changing set of feature bits.

The SMP release mechanism for FSL book3e is different from when booting
with normal hardware. In theory we could simulate the normal spin
table mechanism, but not at the addresses U-Boot put in the device tree
-- so there'd need to be even more communication between the kernel and
kexec to set that up. Instead, kexec-tools will set a boolean property

Use an AS=1 trampoline TLB entry to allow all normal TLB1 entries to
be loaded at once. This avoids the need to keep the translation that
code is executing from in the same TLB entry in the final TLB
configuration as during early boot, which in turn is helpful for
relocatable kernels (e.g. kdump) where the kernel is not running from
what would be the first TLB entry.
On e6500, we limit map_mem_in_cams() to the primary hwthread of a
core (the boot cpu is always considered primary, as a kdump kernel
can be entered on any cpu). Each TLB only needs to be set up once,
and when we do, we don't want another thread to be running when we
create a temporary trampoline TLB1 entry.

We are adding support for DMA memory pre-registration to be used in
conjunction with VFIO. The idea is that the userspace which is going to
run a guest may want to pre-register a user space memory region so
it all gets pinned once and never goes away. Having this done,
a hypervisor will not have to pin/unpin pages on every DMA map/unmap
request. This is going to help with multiple pinning of the same memory.
Another use of it is in-kernel real mode (mmu off) acceleration of
DMA requests where real time translation of guest physical to host
physical addresses is non-trivial and may fail as linux ptes may be
temporarily invalid. Also, having cached host physical addresses
(compared to just pinning at the start and then walking the page table
again on every H_PUT_TCE), we can be sure that the addresses which we put
into TCE table are the ones we already pinned.
This adds a list of memory regions to mm_context_t. Each region consists
of a header and a list of physical addresses. This adds API to:
1. register/unregister memory regions;
2. do final cleanup (which puts all pre-registered pages);
3. do userspace to physical address translation;
4. manage usage counters; multiple registration of the same memory
is allowed (once per container).
This implements 2 counters per registered memory region:
- @mapped: incremented on every DMA mapping; decremented on unmapping;
initialized to 1 when a region is just registered; once it becomes zero,
no more mappings allowe;
- @used: incremented on every "register" ioctl; decremented on
"unregister"; unregistration is allowed for DMA mapped regions unless
it is the very last reference. For the very last reference this checks
that the region is still mapped and returns -EBUSY so the userspace
gets to know that memory is still pinned and unregistration needs to
be retried; @used remains 1.
Host physical addresses are stored in vmalloc'ed array. In order to
access these in the real mode (mmu off), there is a real_vmalloc_addr()
helper. In-kernel acceleration patchset will move it from KVM to MMU code.

The hard lockup detector uses a PMU event as a periodic NMI to
detect if we are stuck (where stuck means no timer interrupts have
occurred).
Ben's rework of the ppc64 soft disable code has made ppc64 PMU
exceptions a partial NMI. They can get disabled if an external
interrupt comes in, but otherwise PMU interrupts will fire in
interrupt disabled regions.
We disable the hard lockup detector by default for a few reasons:
- It breaks userspace event based branches on POWER8.
- It is likely to produce false positives on KVM guests.
- Since PMCs can only count to 2^31, counting cycles means we might
take multiple PMU exceptions per second per hardware thread even
if our hard lockup timeout is 10 seconds.
It can be enabled via a boot option, or via procfs.

Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of
bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is
still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but
ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem.
Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to
memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as:
p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x);
Becomes:
p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0);
We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *.
The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment,
which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses.
We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of
memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic
if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the
NULL checks are and always have been redundant.
The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we
remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc().
Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base()
because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation
to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone.

At boot we display a bunch of low level settings which can be useful to
know, and can help to spot bugs when things are fundamentally
misconfigured.
At the moment they are very widely spaced, so that we can accommodate
the line:
ppc64_caches.dcache_line_size = 0xYY
But we only print that line when the cache line size is not 128, ie.
almost never, so it just makes the display look odd usually.
The ppc64_caches prefix is redundant so remove it, which means we can
align things a bit closer for the common case. While we're there
replace the last use of camelCase (physicalMemorySize), and use
phys_mem_size.

Commit 8f619b5429 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on
interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR
without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode. The
result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under
PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction
interrupt at that point, causing a panic. The visible result is that
the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init".
This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before
setting LPCR. If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on
interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.

If we take an interrupt such as a trap caused by a BUG_ON before the
MMU has been setup, the interrupt handlers try to enable virutal mode
and cause a recursive crash, making the original problem very hard
to debug.
This fixes it by adjusting the "kernel_msr" value in the PACA so that
it only has MSR_IR and MSR_DR (translation for instruction and data)
set after the MMU has been initialized for the processor.
We may still not have a console yet but at least we don't get into
a recursive fault (and early debug console or memory dump via JTAG
of the kernel buffer *will* give us the proper error).

There are a few things that make the existing hw tablewalk handlers
unsuitable for e6500:
- Indirect entries go in TLB1 (though the resulting direct entries go in
TLB0).
- It has threads, but no "tlbsrx." -- so we need a spinlock and
a normal "tlbsx". Because we need this lock, hardware tablewalk
is mandatory on e6500 unless we want to add spinlock+tlbsx to
the normal bolted TLB miss handler.
- TLB1 has no HES (nor next-victim hint) so we need software round robin
(TODO: integrate this round robin data with hugetlb/KVM)
- The existing tablewalk handlers map half of a page table at a time,
because IBM hardware has a fixed 1MiB indirect page size. e6500
has variable size indirect entries, with a minimum of 2MiB.
So we can't do the half-page indirect mapping, and even if we
could it would be less efficient than mapping the full page.
- Like on e5500, the linear mapping is bolted, so we don't need the
overhead of supporting nested tlb misses.
Note that hardware tablewalk does not work in rev1 of e6500.
We do not expect to support e6500 rev1 in mainline Linux.

This patch introduces exclusive emergency stack for machine check exception.
We use emergency stack to handle machine check exception so that we can save
MCE information (srr1, srr0, dar and dsisr) before turning on ME bit and be
ready for re-entrancy. This helps us to prevent clobbering of MCE information
in case of nested machine checks.
The reason for using emergency stack over normal kernel stack is that the
machine check might occur in the middle of setting up a stack frame which may
result into improper use of kernel stack.

We have a bunch of CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_* options that are intended
for bringup/debug only. They hard wire a machine specific udbg backend
very early on (before we even probe the platform), and use whatever
tricks are available on each machine/cpu to be able to get some kind
of output out there early on.
So far, on powermac with no serial ports, we have CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_BOOTX
to use the low-level btext engine on the screen, but it doesn't do much, at
least on 64-bit. It only really gets enabled after the platform has been
probed and the MMU enabled.
This adds a way to enable it much earlier. From prom_init.c (while still
running with Open Firmware), we grab the screen details and set things up
using the physical address of the frame buffer.
Then btext itself uses the "rm_ci" feature of the 970 processor (Real
Mode Cache Inhibited) to access it while in real mode.
We need to do a little bit of reorg of the btext code to inline things
better, in order to limit how much we touch memory while in this mode as
the consequences might be ... interesting.
This successfully allowed me to debug problems early on with the G5
(related to gold being broken vs. ppc64 kernels).

Powerpc architecture uses a hash based page table mechanism for mapping virtual

simultaneously with KVM on Power. Another disadvantage is that the reserved memory
is not available to rest of the subsystems and and that implies we limit the total

We allocate one page for the last level of linux page table. With THP and
large page size of 16MB, that would mean we are wasting large part
of that page. To map 16MB area, we only need a PTE space of 2K with 64K
page size. This patch reduce the space wastage by sharing the page
allocated for the last level of linux page table with multiple pmd
entries. We call these smaller chunks PTE page fragments and allocated
page, PTE page.
In order to support systems which doesn't have 64K HPTE support, we also
add another 2K to PTE page fragment. The second half of the PTE fragments
is used for storing slot and secondary bit information of an HPTE. With this
we now have a 4K PTE fragment.
We use a simple approach to share the PTE page. On allocation, we bump the
PTE page refcount to 16 and share the PTE page with the next 16 pte alloc
request. This should help in the node locality of the PTE page fragment,
assuming that the immediate pte alloc request will mostly come from the
same NUMA node. We don't try to reuse the freed PTE page fragment. Hence
we could be waisting some space.

However if we combine CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y with any of the PPC_EARLY_DEBUG

In commit 407821a we assigned a poison value to the paca->data_offset.
Unfortunately with CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y lockdep will read & write to percpu
data very early in boot, prior to us initialising the percpu areas,
leading to a crash.
We have been getting away with this because the data_offset was previously
set to zero. This causes lockdep to read & write to the initial copy of
the percpu variables, which are discarded later in boot.
Although that is "fishy", it does work, and for lock statistics it is no
big deal to discard the counts from early boot.
So set the paca->data_offset = 0 for the boot cpu paca only.
