perf_mem_data_src is a union that is initialized in the kernel via the ->val field and accessed by userspace via the mem_xxx bitfields. For this to work correctly on big endian platforms, we need a big-endian definition for the bitfields. Currently on a big endian system, if a user requests PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC (perf report -d), they will get the default value from perf_sample_data_init(), which is PERF_MEM_NA. The value for PERF_MEM_NA is constructed using shifts: /* TLB access */ #define PERF_MEM_TLB_NA 0x01 /* not available */ ... #define PERF_MEM_TLB_SHIFT 26 #define PERF_MEM_S(a, s) \ (((__u64)PERF_MEM_##a##_##s) << PERF_MEM_##a##_SHIFT) #define PERF_MEM_NA (PERF_MEM_S(OP, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(LVL, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(SNOOP, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(LOCK, NA) |\ PERF_MEM_S(TLB, NA)) Which works out as: ((0x01 << 0) | (0x01 << 5) | (0x01 << 19) | (0x01 << 24) | (0x01 << 26)) Which means the PERF_MEM_NA value comes out of the kernel as 0x5080021 in CPU endian. But then in the perf tool, the code uses the bitfields to inspect the value, and currently the bitfields are defined using little endian ordering. So eg. in perf_mem__tlb_scnprintf() we see: data_src->val = 0x5080021 op = 0x0 lvl = 0x0 snoop = 0x0 lock = 0x0 dtlb = 0x0 rsvd = 0x5080021 Because of the way the perf tool code is written this is still displayed to the user as "N/A", so there is no bug visible at the UI level. Currently there are no big endian architectures which export a meaningful value (ie. other than PERF_MEM_NA), so the extent of the bug on big endian platforms is that the PERF_MEM_NA value is exported incorrectly as described above. Subsequent patches will add support on big endian powerpc for populating the data source value. This patch does a minimal fix of adding big endian definition of the bitfields to match the values that are already exported by the kernel on big endian. And it makes no change on little endian.

The CMA pages migration code does not support compound pages at the moment so it performs few tests before proceeding to actual page migration. One of the tests - PageTransHuge() - has VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageTail()) as it is designed to be called on head pages only. Since we also test for PageCompound(), and it contains PageTail() and PageHead(), we can simplify the check by leaving just PageCompound() and therefore avoid possible VM_BUG_ON_PAGE.

As part of the new large address space support, processes start out life with a 128TB virtual address space. However when calling mmap() a process can pass a hint address, and if that hint is > 128TB the kernel will use the full 512TB address space to try and satisfy the mmap() request. Currently we have a check that the hint is > 128TB and < 512TB (TASK_SIZE), which was added as an optimisation to avoid updating addr_limit unnecessarily and also to avoid calling slice_flush_segments() on all CPUs more than necessary. However this has the user-visible side effect that an mmap() hint above 512TB does not search the full address space unless a preceding mmap() used a hint value > 128TB && < 512TB. So fix it to treat any hint above 128TB as a hint to search the full address space, instead of checking the hint against TASK_SIZE, we instead check if the addr_limit is already == TASK_SIZE. This also brings the ABI in-line with what is proposed on x86. ie, that a hint address above 128TB up to and including (2^64)-1 is an indication to search the full address space.

The XIVE enablement patches included a change to set the LPES (Logical Partitioning Environment Selector) bit (bit # 3) in LPCR (Logical Partitioning Control Register) on POWER9 hosts. This bit sets external interrupts to guest delivery mode, which uses SRR0/1. The host's EE interrupt handler is written to expect HSRR0/1 (for earlier CPUs). This should be fine because XIVE is configured not to deliver EEs to the host (Hypervisor Virtulization Interrupt is used instead) so the EE handler should never be executed. However a bug in interrupt controller code, hardware, or odd configuration of a simulator could result in the host getting an EE incorrectly. Keeping the EE delivery mode matching the host EE handler prevents strange crashes due to using the wrong exception registers. KVM will configure the LPCR to set LPES prior to running a guest so that EEs are delivered to the guest using SRR0/1.

The powernv platform supports Power7 and later CPUs, all of which are multithreaded and multicore. As such we never build a SMP=n kernel for those machines, other than possibly for debugging or running in a simulator. In the debugging case we can get a similar effect by booting with nr_cpus=1, or there's always the option of building a custom kernel with SMP hacked out. For running in simulators the code size reduction from building without SMP is not particularly important, what matters is the number of instructions executed. A quick test shows that a SMP=y kernel takes ~6% more instructions to boot to a shell. Booting with nr_cpus=1 recovers about half that deficit. On the flip side, keeping the SMP=n kernel building can be a pain at times. And although we've mostly kept it building in recent years, no one is regularly testing that the SMP=n kernel actually boots and works well on these machines.

It's not entirely clear it was needed then, but devm_ioremap_prot() has since been removed entirely as unused, in dedd24a1 ("powerpc: Remove unused devm_ioremap_prot()").

Currently sys_mmap() and sys_mmap2() (32-bit only), are not visible to the syscall tracing machinery. This means users are not able to see the execution of mmap() syscalls using the syscall tracer. Fix that by using SYSCALL_DEFINE6 for sys_mmap() and sys_mmap2() so that the meta-data associated with these syscalls is visible to the syscall tracer. A side-effect of this change is that the return type has changed from unsigned long to long. However this should have no effect, the only code in the kernel which uses the result of these syscalls is in the syscall return path, which is written in asm and treats the result as unsigned regardless.

Recently in commit f6eedbba ("powerpc/mm/hash: Increase VA range to 128TB"), we increased H_PGD_INDEX_SIZE to 15 when we're building with 64K pages. This makes it larger than RADIX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE (13), which means the logic to calculate MAX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE in book3s/64/pgtable.h is wrong. The end result is that the PGD (Page Global Directory, ie top level page table) of the kernel (aka. swapper_pg_dir), is too small. This generally doesn't lead to a crash, as we don't use the full range in normal operation. However if we try to dump the kernel pagetables we can trigger a crash because we walk off the end of the pgd into other memory and eventually try to dereference something bogus: $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_pagetables Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xe8fece0000000000 Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000072314 cpu 0xc: Vector: 380 (Data SLB Access) at [c0000000daa13890] pc: c000000000072314: ptdump_show+0x164/0x430 lr: c000000000072550: ptdump_show+0x3a0/0x430 dar: e802cf0000000000 seq_read+0xf8/0x560 full_proxy_read+0x84/0xc0 __vfs_read+0x6c/0x1d0 vfs_read+0xbc/0x1b0 SyS_read+0x6c/0x110 system_call+0x38/0xfc The root cause is that MAX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE isn't actually computed to be the max of H_PGD_INDEX_SIZE or RADIX_PGD_INDEX_SIZE.

POWER9 DD1.0 hardware has a bug where the SPRs of a thread waking up from stop 0,1,2 with ESL=1 can endup being misplaced in the core. Thus the HSPRG0 of a thread waking up from can contain the paca pointer of its sibling. This patch implements a context recovery framework within threads of a core, by provisioning space in paca_struct for saving every sibling threads's paca pointers. Basically, we should be able to arrive at the right paca pointer from any of the thread's existing paca pointer. At bootup, during powernv idle-init, we save the paca address of every CPU in each one its siblings paca_struct in the slot corresponding to this CPU's index in the core. On wakeup from a stop, the thread will determine its index in the core from the TIR register and recover its PACA pointer by indexing into the correct slot in the provisioned space in the current PACA. Furthermore, ensure that the NVGPRs are restored from the stack on the way out by setting the NAPSTATELOST in paca.

Currently during idle-init on power9, if we don't find suitable stop states in the device tree that can be used as the default_stop/deepest_stop, we set stop0 (ESL=1,EC=1) as the default stop state psscr to be used by power9_idle and deepest stop state which is used by CPU-Hotplug. However, if the platform firmware has not configured or enabled a stop state, the kernel should not make any assumptions and fallback to a default choice. If the kernel uses a stop state that is not configured by the platform firmware, it may lead to further failures which should be avoided. In this patch, we modify the init code to ensure that the kernel uses only the stop states exposed by the firmware through the device tree. When a suitable default stop state isn't found, we disable ppc_md.power_save for power9. Similarly, when a suitable deepest_stop_state is not found in the device tree exported by the firmware, fall back to the default busy-wait loop in the CPU-Hotplug code.

Currently, the powernv cpu-offline function assumes that platform idle states such as stop on POWER9, winkle/sleep/nap on POWER8 are always available. On POWER8, it picks nap as the default state if other deep idle states like sleep/winkle are not available and enabled in the platform. On POWER9, nap is not available and all idle states are managed by STOP instruction. The parameters to the idle state are passed through processor stop status control register (PSSCR). Hence as such executing STOP would take parameters from current PSSCR. We do not want to make any assumptions in kernel on what STOP states and PSSCR features are configured by the platform. Ideally platform will configure a good set of stop states that can be used in the kernel. We would like to start with a clean slate, if the platform choose to not configure any state or there is an error in platform firmware that lead to no stop states being configured or allowed to be requested. This patch adds a fallback method for CPU-Hotplug that is similar to snooze loop at idle where the threads are left to spin at low priority and hence reduce the cycles consumed. This is a safe fallback mechanism in the case when no stop state would be requested if the platform firmware did not configure them most likely due to an error condition. Requesting a stop state when the platform has not configured them or enabled them would lead to further error conditions which could be difficult to debug.
