The P8+ hardware supports four partitionable endpoints (PEs) however
the hardware reports all errors as occurring on PE#0. This means we
need to reserve this PE for error handling (EEH) and not assign it to
a NPU device, implying that some devices will need to share PEs.
This patch changes the PE assignment for NPU devices such that NPU
devices which connect to the same GPU are assigned to the same

The emulated NVLink PCI devices share the same IODA2 TCE tables but only
support a single TVT (instead of the normal two for PCI devices). This
requires the kernel to manually replace windows with either the bypass
or non-bypass window depending on what the driver has requested.
Unfortunately an incorrect optimisation was made in
pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask() which caused updating of some NPU device PEs
to be skipped in certain configurations due to an incorrect assumption
that a NULL peer PE in the array indicated there were no more peers
present. This patch fixes the problem by ensuring all peer PEs are
updated.

It has come to my attention that kprobe event stack tracing does not
work on powerpc. You can see with the following:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo stacktrace > trace_options
# echo 'p kfree' > kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable
Will print the following warning:
save_stack_trace_regs() not implemented yet.
Although save_stack_trace() (which normal event stack traces use) is
implemented, save_stack_trace_regs() which kprobe events use is not.
This is a cheap attempt to implement that function.
Note, This may have issues if a task tries to get a stack trace from
another task with its regs, because it just passes in "current" to
save_context_stack(). But this does solve the issue with stack tracing
kprobe events.

Presently when a user-space process issues CXL_IOCTL_START_WORK ioctl we
store the pid of the current task_struct and use it to get pointer to
the mm_struct of the process, while processing page or segment faults
from the capi card. However this causes issues when the thread that had
originally issued the start-work ioctl exits in which case the stored
pid is no more valid and the cxl driver is unable to handle faults as
the mm_struct corresponding to process is no more accessible.
This patch fixes this issue by using the mm_struct of the next alive
task in the thread group. This is done by iterating over all the tasks
in the thread group starting from thread group leader and calling
get_task_mm on each one of them. When a valid mm_struct is obtained the
pid of the associated task is stored in the context replacing the
exiting one for handling future faults.
The patch introduces a new function named get_mem_context that checks if
the current task pointed to by ctx->pid is dead? If yes it performs the
steps described above. Also a new variable cxl_context.glpid is
introduced which stores the pid of the thread group leader associated
with the context owning task.

On BMC machines, console output is controlled by the OPAL firmware and is
only flushed when its pollers are called. When the kernel is in a panic
state, it no longer calls these pollers and thus console output does not
completely flush, causing some output from the panic to be lost.
Output is only actually lost when the kernel is configured to not power off
or reboot after panic (i.e. CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT is set to 0) since OPAL
flushes the console buffer as part of its power down routines. Before this
patch, however, only partial output would be printed during the timeout wait.
This patch adds a new kmsg_dumper which gets called at panic time to ensure
panic output is not lost. It accomplishes this by calling OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH
in the OPAL API, and if that is not available, the pollers are called enough
times to (hopefully) completely flush the buffer.
The flushing mechanism will only affect output printed at and before the
kmsg_dump call in kernel/panic.c:panic(). As such, the "end Kernel panic"
message may still be truncated as follows:

NVLink is a high speed interconnect that is used in conjunction with a
PCI-E connection to create an interface between CPU and GPU that
provides very high data bandwidth. A PCI-E connection to a GPU is used
as the control path to initiate and report status of large data
transfers sent via the NVLink.
On IBM Power systems the NVLink processing unit (NPU) is similar to
the existing PHB3. This patch adds support for a new NPU PHB type. DMA
operations on the NPU are not supported as this patch sets the TCE
translation tables to be the same as the related GPU PCIe device for
each NVLink. Therefore all DMA operations are setup and controlled via
the PCIe device.
EEH is not presently supported for the NPU devices, although it may be

To introduce a new PTE _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit value common to hash 4k

shifted left by one.

The STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro takes both a vector number, and a
location (memory address). However both are always identical, so combine
them to save repeating ourselves.
This does mean an exception handler must always exist at the location in
memory that matches its vector number. But that's OK because this is the
"STD" macro (standard), which does exactly that. We have other macros
for the other cases, eg. STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES_OOL (out of line).

HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is a macro which is present at the start of most
of our first level exception handlers. It conditionally executes a
HMT_MEDIUM instruction, which sets the processor priority to medium.
On on modern systems, ie. Power7 and later, it is nop'ed out at boot.
All it does is make the exception vectors more cramped, and consume 4
bytes of icache.
On old systems it has the effect of boosting the processor priority at
the start of exception processing. If we were previously in the idle
loop for example, we may be at low or very low priority. This is
desirable as we want to process the exception as fast as possible.
However looking closely at the generated code, we see that in all cases
we execute another HMT_MEDIUM just four instructions later. With code
patching applied, the final code on an old (Power6) system will look
like, eg:
c000000000000300 <data_access_pSeries>:
c000000000000300: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
c000000000000304: 7d b2 43 a6 mtsprg 2,r13
c000000000000308: 7d b1 42 a6 mfsprg r13,1
c00000000000030c: f9 2d 00 80 std r9,128(r13)
c000000000000310: 60 00 00 00 nop
c000000000000314: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
So I suggest that the added code complexity of HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is
not justified by the benefit of boosting the processor priority for the
duration of four instructions, and therefore we drop it.

Most users of RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction Services) use rtas_call(),
which deals with locking as well as endian handling.
However we have two users outside of rtas.c that can't use rtas_call()
because they have different locking requirements.
The hotplug CPU code can't take the RTAS lock because the CPU would go
offline with the lock held and no other CPUs would be able to call RTAS
until the CPU came back online.
The xmon code doesn't want to take the lock because it would risk dead
locking when we are trying to recover from a crash.
Both sites required multiple patches when we added little endian
support, proving that programmers can't do endian right.
Although that ship has sailed, we can still clean the code up by
providing an unlocked version of rtas_call() which avoids the need to
open code the logic elsewhere.

HMIs (Hypervisor Management|Maintenance Interrupts) are a class of interrupt

HMI support has traditionally been exceptionally difficult to test, however
Skiboot ships a tool that, with the correct magic numbers, will inject them.
This, therefore, is a first pass at a script to inject HMIs and monitor
Linux's response. It injects an HMI on each core on every chip in turn
It then watches dmesg to see if it's acknowledged by Linux.
On a Tuletta, I observed that we see 8 (or sometimes 9 or more) events per
injection, regardless of SMT setting, so we wait for 8 before progressing.
It sits in a new scripts/ directory in selftests/powerpc, because it's not
designed to be run as part of the regular make selftests process. In
particular, it is quite possibly going to end up garding lots of your CPUs,
so it should only be run if you know how to undo that.

GregorianDay() is supposed to calculate the day of the week
(tm->tm_wday) for a given day/month/year. In that calcuation it
indexed into an array called MonthOffset using tm->tm_mon-1. However
tm_mon is zero-based, not one-based, so this is off-by-one. It also
means that every January, GregoiranDay() will access element -1 of
the MonthOffset array.
It also doesn't appear to be a correct algorithm either: see in
contrast kernel/time/timeconv.c's time_to_tm function.
It's been broken forever, which suggests no-one in userland uses
this. It looks like no-one in the kernel uses tm->tm_wday either
(see e.g. drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1305.c:319).
tm->tm_wday is conventionally set to -1 when not available in
hardware so we can simply set it to -1 and drop the function.
(There are over a dozen other drivers in drivers/rtc that do
this.)

by the kernel the .vr_state (which held the checkpointed state of VSRs

Kernel prints respective warnings about various EPOW events for
user information/action after parsing EPOW interrupts. At times
below EPOW reset event warning is seen to be flooding kernel log
over a period of time.

These EPOW reset events are spurious in nature and are triggered by
firmware without an actual EPOW event being reset. This patch avoids these
multiple EPOW reset warnings by using a counter variable. This variable
is incremented every time an EPOW event is reported. Upon receiving a EPOW
reset event the same variable is checked to filter out spurious events and
decremented accordingly.
This patch also improves log messages to better describe EPOW event being
reported. Merged adjacent log messages into single one to reduce number of
lines printed per event.
