2014-02-06powerpc: Make sure "cache" directory is removed when offlining cpuPaul Mackerras
commit 91b973f90c1220d71923e7efe1e61f5329806380 upstream. The code in remove_cache_dir() is supposed to remove the "cache" subdirectory from the sysfs directory for a CPU when that CPU is being offlined. It tries to do this by calling kobject_put() on the kobject for the subdirectory. However, the subdirectory only gets removed once the last reference goes away, and the reference being put here may well not be the last reference. That means that the "cache" subdirectory may still exist when the offlining operation has finished. If the same CPU subsequently gets onlined, the code tries to add a new "cache" subdirectory. If the old subdirectory has not yet been removed, we get a WARN_ON in the sysfs code, with stack trace, and an error message printed on the console. Further, we ultimately end up with an online cpu with no "cache" subdirectory. This fixes it by doing an explicit kobject_del() at the point where we want the subdirectory to go away. kobject_del() removes the sysfs directory even though the object still exists in memory. The object will get freed at some point in the future. A subsequent onlining operation can create a new sysfs directory, even if the old object still exists in memory, without causing any problems.

2014-02-06powerpc: Fix the setup of CPU-to-Node mappings during CPU onlineSrivatsa S. Bhat
commit d4edc5b6c480a0917e61d93d55531d7efa6230be upstream. On POWER platforms, the hypervisor can notify the guest kernel about dynamic changes in the cpu-numa associativity (VPHN topology update). Hence the cpu-to-node mappings that we got from the firmware during boot, may no longer be valid after such updates. This is handled using the arch_update_cpu_topology() hook in the scheduler, and the sched-domains are rebuilt according to the new mappings. But unfortunately, at the moment, CPU hotplug ignores these updated mappings and instead queries the firmware for the cpu-to-numa relationships and uses them during CPU online. So the kernel can end up assigning wrong NUMA nodes to CPUs during subsequent CPU hotplug online operations (after booting). Further, a particularly problematic scenario can result from this bug: On POWER platforms, the SMT mode can be switched between 1, 2, 4 (and even 8) threads per core. The switch to Single-Threaded (ST) mode is performed by offlining all except the first CPU thread in each core. Switching back to SMT mode involves onlining those other threads back, in each core. Now consider this scenario: 1. During boot, the kernel gets the cpu-to-node mappings from the firmware and assigns the CPUs to NUMA nodes appropriately, during CPU online. 2. Later on, the hypervisor updates the cpu-to-node mappings dynamically and communicates this update to the kernel. The kernel in turn updates its cpu-to-node associations and rebuilds its sched domains. Everything is fine so far. 3. Now, the user switches the machine from SMT to ST mode (say, by running ppc64_cpu --smt=1). This involves offlining all except 1 thread in each core. 4. The user then tries to switch back from ST to SMT mode (say, by running ppc64_cpu --smt=4), and this involves onlining those threads back. Since CPU hotplug ignores the new mappings, it queries the firmware and tries to associate the newly onlined sibling threads to the old NUMA nodes. This results in sibling threads within the same core getting associated with different NUMA nodes, which is incorrect. The scheduler's build-sched-domains code gets thoroughly confused with this and enters an infinite loop and causes soft-lockups, as explained in detail in commit 3be7db6ab (powerpc: VPHN topology change updates all siblings). So to fix this, use the numa_cpu_lookup_table to remember the updated cpu-to-node mappings, and use them during CPU hotplug online operations. Further, we also need to ensure that all threads in a core are assigned to a common NUMA node, irrespective of whether all those threads were online during the topology update. To achieve this, we take care not to use cpu_sibling_mask() since it is not hotplug invariant. Instead, we use cpu_first_sibling_thread() and set up the mappings manually using the 'threads_per_core' value for that particular platform. This helps us ensure that we don't hit this bug with any combination of CPU hotplug and SMT mode switching. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

commit 90ff5d688e61f49f23545ffab6228bd7e87e6dc7 upstream. In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1) is valid when coming from the kernel. If it's not valid, we die but with a nice oops message. Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we check to see if the stack pointer is negative. Unfortunately, this won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE. This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with -INT_FRAME_SIZE. With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL pointers) are correctly detected again. Kudos to Paulus for finding this.

2013-12-20powerpc: Fix PTE page address mismatch in pgtable ctor/dtorHong H. Pham
commit cf77ee54362a245f9a01f240adce03a06c05eb68 upstream. In pte_alloc_one(), pgtable_page_ctor() is passed an address that has not been converted by page_address() to the newly allocated PTE page. When the PTE is freed, __pte_free_tlb() calls pgtable_page_dtor() with an address to the PTE page that has been converted by page_address(). The mismatch in the PTE's page address causes pgtable_page_dtor() to access invalid memory, so resources for that PTE (such as the page lock) is not properly cleaned up. On PPC32, only SMP kernels are affected. On PPC64, only SMP kernels with 4K page size are affected. This bug was introduced by commit d614bb041209fd7cb5e4b35e11a7b2f6ee8f62b8 "powerpc: Move the pte free routines from common header". On a preempt-rt kernel, a spinlock is dynamically allocated for each PTE in pgtable_page_ctor(). When the PTE is freed, calling pgtable_page_dtor() with a mismatched page address causes a memory leak, as the pointer to the PTE's spinlock is bogus. On mainline, there isn't any immediately obvious symptoms, but the problem still exists here.

2013-12-04powerpc/signals: Improved mark VSX not saved with small contexts fixMichael Neuling
commit ec67ad82814bee92251fd963bf01c7a173856555 upstream.

Firstly, this patch doesn't handle the 64bit signals case, which could also hit this issue (but has never been reported). Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the state). This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It also adds a 64 bit version.

2013-11-29powerpc/signals: Mark VSX not saved with small contextsMichael Neuling
commit c13f20ac48328b05cd3b8c19e31ed6c132b44b42 upstream. The VSX MSR bit in the user context indicates if the context contains VSX state. Currently we set this when the process has touched VSX at any stage. Unfortunately, if the user has not provided enough space to save the VSX state, we can't save it but we currently still set the MSR VSX bit. This patch changes this to clear the MSR VSX bit when the user doesn't provide enough space. This indicates that there is no valid VSX state in the user context. This is needed to support get/set/make/swapcontext for applications that use VSX but only provide a small context. For example, getcontext in glibc provides a smaller context since the VSX registers don't need to be saved over the glibc function call. But since the program calling getcontext may have used VSX, the kernel currently says the VSX state is valid when it's not. If the returned context is then used in setcontext (ie. a small context without VSX but with MSR VSX set), the kernel will refuse the context. This situation has been reported by the glibc community.

2013-10-10kvm: ppc: booke: check range page invalidation progress on page setupBharat Bhushan
When the MM code is invalidating a range of pages, it calls the KVM kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() notifier function, which calls kvm_unmap_hva_range(), which arranges to flush all the TLBs for guest pages. However, the Linux PTEs for the range being flushed are still valid at that point. We are not supposed to establish any new references to pages in the range until the ...range_end() notifier gets called. The PPC-specific KVM code doesn't get any explicit notification of that; instead, we are supposed to use mmu_notifier_retry() to test whether we are or have been inside a range flush notifier pair while we have been referencing a page. This patch calls the mmu_notifier_retry() while mapping the guest page to ensure we are not referencing a page when in range invalidation. This call is inside a region locked with kvm->mmu_lock, which is the same lock that is called by the KVM MMU notifier functions, thus ensuring that no new notification can proceed while we are in the locked region.

This fixes a typo in the code that saves the guest DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) into the kvm_vcpu_arch struct on guest exit. The effect of the typo was that the DSCR value was saved in the wrong place, so changes to the DSCR by the guest didn't persist across guest exit and entry, and some host kernel memory got corrupted.

2013-10-07powerpc/irq: Don't switch to irq stack from softirq stackBenjamin Herrenschmidt
irq_exit() is now called on the irq stack, which can trigger a switch to the softirq stack from the irq stack. If an interrupt happens at that point, we will not properly detect the re-entrancy and clobber the original return context on the irq stack. This fixes it. The side effect is to prevent all nesting from softirq stack to irq stack even in the "safe" case but it's simpler that way and matches what x86_64 does.

When we do a treclaim or trecheckpoint we end up running with userspace PPR and DSCR values. Currently we don't do anything special to avoid running with user values which could cause a severe performance degradation. This patch moves the PPR and DSCR save and restore around treclaim and trecheckpoint so that we run with user values for a much shorter period. More care is taken with the PPR as it's impact is greater than the DSCR. This is similar to user exceptions, where we run HTM_MEDIUM early to ensure that we don't run with a userspace PPR values in the kernel.

Commit 4df4899 "Add power8 EBB support" included a bug in the handling of the FAB_CRESP_MATCH and FAB_TYPE_MATCH fields. These values are pulled out of the event code using EVENT_THR_CTL_SHIFT, however we were then or'ing that value directly into MMCR1. This meant we were failing to set the FAB fields correctly, and also potentially corrupting the value for PMC4SEL. Leading to no counts for the FAB events and incorrect counts for PMC4. The fix is simply to shift left the FAB value correctly before or'ing it with MMCR1.

2013-10-03powerpc/iommu: Use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_ATOMIC in iommu_init_table()Nishanth Aravamudan
Under heavy (DLPAR?) stress, we tripped this panic() in arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c::iommu_init_table(): page = alloc_pages_node(nid, GFP_ATOMIC, get_order(sz)); if (!page) panic("iommu_init_table: Can't allocate %ld bytes\n", sz); Before the panic() we got a page allocation failure for an order-2 allocation. There appears to be memory free, but perhaps not in the ATOMIC context. I looked through all the call-sites of iommu_init_table() and didn't see any obvious reason to need an ATOMIC allocation. Most call-sites in fact have an explicit GFP_KERNEL allocation shortly before the call to iommu_init_table(), indicating we are not in an atomic context. There is some indirection for some paths, but I didn't see any locks indicating that GFP_KERNEL is inappropriate. With this change under the same conditions, we have not been able to reproduce the panic.

Previous commit 46723bfa540... introduced a new config option HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE that ended up breaking memory hot-remove for ppc when sparse vmemmap is not defined. This patch defines HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE for ppc and adds the call to register_page_bootmem_info_node. Without this we get a BUG_ON for memory hot remove in put_page_bootmem(). This also adds a stub for register_page_bootmem_memmap to allow ppc to build with sparse vmemmap defined. Leaving this as a stub is fine since the same vmemmap addresses are also handled in vmemmap_populate and as such are properly mapped.

2013-09-25powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64Benjamin Herrenschmidt
We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for detecting stack overflows. It has a few problems however: - First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but not actually exploited - When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit. Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated softirq stack. This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to the irq stack. This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2013-09-11mm: migrate: check movability of hugepage in unmap_and_move_huge_page()Naoya Horiguchi
Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages (mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it. Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe. But the other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages. To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd basis or not. And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

2013-09-11powerpc: Default arch idle could cede processor on pseriesVaidyanathan Srinivasan
When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two regressions: - The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades - The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has shared processors. This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

Pull device tree core updates from Grant Likely: "Generally minor changes. A bunch of bug fixes, particularly for initialization and some refactoring. Most notable change if feeding the entire flattened tree into the random pool at boot. May not be significant, but shouldn't hurt either" Tim Bird questions whether the boot time cost of the random feeding may be noticeable. And "add_device_randomness()" is definitely not some speed deamon of a function. * tag 'devicetree-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux: of/platform: add error reporting to of_amba_device_create() irq/of: Fix comment typo for irq_of_parse_and_map of: Feed entire flattened device tree into the random pool of/fdt: Clean up casting in unflattening path of/fdt: Remove duplicate memory clearing on FDT unflattening gpio: implement gpio-ranges binding document fix of: call __of_parse_phandle_with_args from of_parse_phandle of: introduce of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args of: move of_parse_phandle() of: move documentation of of_parse_phandle_with_args of: Fix missing memory initialization on FDT unflattening of: consolidate definition of early_init_dt_alloc_memory_arch() of: Make of_get_phy_mode() return int i.s.o. const int include: dt-binding: input: create a DT header defining key codes. of/platform: Staticize of_platform_device_create_pdata() of: Specify initrd location using 64-bit dt: Typo fix OF: make of_property_for_each_{u32|string}() use parameters if OF is not enabled
