<content type='text'>
PC-Relative or PCREL addressing is an extension to the ELF ABI which
uses Power ISA v3.1 PC-relative instructions to calculate addresses,
rather than the traditional TOC scheme.

Add an option to build vmlinux using pcrel addressing. Modules continue
to use TOC addressing.

- TOC address helpers and r2 are poisoned with -1 when running vmlinux.
  r2 could be used for something useful once things are ironed out.

- Assembly must call C functions with @notoc annotation, or the linker
  complains aobut a missing nop after the call. This is done with the
  CFUNC macro introduced earlier.

- Boot: with the exception of prom_init, the execution branches to the
  kernel virtual address early in boot, before any addresses are
  generated, which ensures 34-bit pcrel addressing does not miss the
  high PAGE_OFFSET bits. TOC relative addressing has a similar
  requirement. prom_init does not go to the virtual address and its
  addresses should not carry over to the post-prom kernel.

- Ftrace trampolines are converted from TOC addressing to pcrel
  addressing, including module ftrace trampolines that currently use the
  kernel TOC to find ftrace target functions.

- BPF function prologue and function calling generation are converted
  from TOC to pcrel.

- copypage_64.S has an interesting problem, prefixed instructions have
  alignment restrictions so the linker can add padding, which makes the
  assembler treat the difference between two local labels as
  non-constant even if alignment is arranged so padding is not required.
  This may need toolchain help to solve nicely, for now move the prefix
  instruction out of the alternate patch section to work around it.

This reduces kernel text size by about 6%.

<title>powerpc/64: Fix perf profiling asynchronous interrupt handlers</title>

<content type='text'>
Interrupt entry sets the soft mask to IRQS_ALL_DISABLED to match the
hard irq disabled state. So when should_hard_irq_enable() returns true
because we want PMI interrupts in irq handlers, MSR[EE] is enabled but
PMIs just get soft-masked. Fix this by clearing IRQS_PMI_DISABLED before
enabling MSR[EE].

This also tidies some of the warnings, no need to duplicate them in
both should_hard_irq_enable() and do_hard_irq_enable().

<title>powerpc: allow minimum sized kernel stack frames</title>

This affects only 64-bit ELFv2 kernels, and reduces the minimum
asm-created stack frame size from 112 to 32 byte on those kernels.

<id>urn:sha1:8cbb2b50ee2dcb082675237eaaa48fe8479f8aa5</id>
<content type='text'>
Remove the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT symbol from the ifdef around
do_softirq_own_stack() and move it to Kconfig instead.

Enable softirq stacks based on SOFTIRQ_ON_OWN_STACK which depends on
HAVE_SOFTIRQ_ON_OWN_STACK and its default value is set to !PREEMPT_RT.
This ensures that softirq stacks are not used on PREEMPT_RT and avoids
a 'select' statement on an option which has a 'depends' statement.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add support for syscall stack randomization

 - Add support for atomic operations to the 32 &amp; 64-bit BPF JIT

 - Full support for KASAN on 64-bit Book3E

 - Add a watchdog driver for the new PowerVM hypervisor watchdog

As the detection is asynchronously performed at IRQs, we could be long
after the limit has been crossed, so increasing the limit would not
solve the problem completely.

In order to be sure that there is enough stack space for the stack
dump, do it after the switch to the IRQ stack. That way it is sure
that the stack is large enough, unless the IRQ stack has been
overfilled in which case the end of life is close.

An investigation shows that on PPC32, calling dump_stack() requires
more than 1k when KASAN is not selected and a bit more than 2k bytes
when KASAN is selected.

On PPC64 the registers are twice the size of PPC32 registers, so the
need should be approximately twice the need on PPC32.

In the meantime we have THREAD_SIZE which is twice larger on PPC64
than PPC32, and twice larger when KASAN is selected.

So we can easily use the value of THREAD_SIZE to set the limit.

On PPC32, THREAD_SIZE is 8k without KASAN and 16k with KASAN.
On PPC64, THREAD_SIZE is 16k without KASAN.

To be on the safe side, leave 2k on PPC32 without KASAN, 4k with
KASAN, and 4k on PPC64 without KASAN. It means the limit should be
one fourth of THREAD_SIZE.
