Add a VMX optimised xor, used primarily for RAID5. On a POWER7 blade this is a decent win: 32regs : 17932.800 MB/sec altivec : 19724.800 MB/sec The bigger gain is when the same test is run in SMT4 mode, as it would if there was a lot of work going on: 8regs : 8377.600 MB/sec altivec : 15801.600 MB/sec I tested this against an array created without the patch, and also verified it worked as expected on a little endian kernel.

commit f13c13a0 (powerpc: Stop using non-architected shared_proc field in lppaca) fixed a potential issue with shared/dedicated partition detection. The old method of detection relied on an unarchitected field (shared_proc), and this patch switched to using something architected (a non zero yield_count). Unfortunately the assertion in the Linux header that yield_count is only non zero on shared processor partitions is not true. It turns out dedicated processor partitions can increment yield_count and as such we falsely detect dedicated partitions as shared. Fix the comment, and switch back to using the old method.

PPC44x supports page sizes other than 4K however when 64K page sizes are selected compilation fails. This is due to a change in the definition of pgtable_t introduced by the following patch: commit 5c1f6ee9 Author: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> powerpc: Reduce PTE table memory wastage The above patch only implements the new layout for PPC64 so it doesn't compile for PPC32 with a 64K page size. Ideally we should implement the same layout for PPC32 however for the meantime this patch reverts the definition of pgtable_t for PPC32.

This provides a facility which is intended for use by KVM, where the contents of the FP/VSX and VMX (Altivec) registers can be saved away to somewhere other than the thread_struct when kernel code wants to use floating point or VMX instructions. This is done by providing a pointer in the thread_struct to indicate where the state should be saved to. The giveup_fpu() and giveup_altivec() functions test these pointers and save state to the indicated location if they are non-NULL. Note that the MSR_FP/VEC bits in task->thread.regs->msr are still used to indicate whether the CPU register state is live, even when an alternate save location is being used. This also provides load_fp_state() and load_vr_state() functions, which load up FP/VSX and VMX state from memory into the CPU registers, and corresponding store_fp_state() and store_vr_state() functions, which store FP/VSX and VMX state into memory from the CPU registers.

This creates new 'thread_fp_state' and 'thread_vr_state' structures to store FP/VSX state (including FPSCR) and Altivec/VSX state (including VSCR), and uses them in the thread_struct. In the thread_fp_state, the FPRs and VSRs are represented as u64 rather than double, since we rarely perform floating-point computations on the values, and this will enable the structures to be used in KVM code as well. Similarly FPSCR is now a u64 rather than a structure of two 32-bit values. This takes the offsets out of the macros such as SAVE_32FPRS, REST_32FPRS, etc. This enables the same macros to be used for normal and transactional state, enabling us to delete the transactional versions of the macros. This also removes the unused do_load_up_fpu and do_load_up_altivec, which were in fact buggy since they didn't create large enough stack frames to account for the fact that load_up_fpu and load_up_altivec are not designed to be called from C and assume that their caller's stack frame is an interrupt frame.

The current VFIO-on-POWER implementation supports only user mode driven mapping, i.e. QEMU is sending requests to map/unmap pages. However this approach is really slow, so we want to move that to KVM. Since H_PUT_TCE can be extremely performance sensitive (especially with network adapters where each packet needs to be mapped/unmapped) we chose to implement that as a "fast" hypercall directly in "real mode" (processor still in the guest context but MMU off). To be able to do that, we need to provide some facilities to access the struct page count within that real mode environment as things like the sparsemem vmemmap mappings aren't accessible. This adds an API function realmode_pfn_to_page() to get page struct when MMU is off. This adds to MM a new function put_page_unless_one() which drops a page if counter is bigger than 1. It is going to be used when MMU is off (for example, real mode on PPC64) and we want to make sure that page release will not happen in real mode as it may crash the kernel in a horrible way. CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and CONFIG_FLATMEM are supported.

This patch maps the MMIO functions for 32bit PowerPC to their appropriate instructions depending on CPU endianness. The macros used to create the corresponding inline functions are also renamed by this patch. Previously they had BE or LE in their names which was misleading - they had nothing to do with endianness, but actually created different instruction forms so their new names reflect the instruction form they are creating (D-Form and X-Form). Little endian 64bit PowerPC is not supported, so the lack of mappings (and corresponding breakage) for that case is intentional to bring the attention of anyone doing a 64bit little endian port. 64bit big endian is unaffected.

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: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

It turns out that if we exit the guest due to a hcall instruction (sc 1), and the loading of the instruction in the guest exit path fails for any reason, the call to kvmppc_ld() in kvmppc_get_last_inst() fetches the instruction after the hcall instruction rather than the hcall itself. This in turn means that the instruction doesn't get recognized as an hcall in kvmppc_handle_exit_pr() but gets passed to the guest kernel as a sc instruction. That usually results in the guest kernel getting a return code of 38 (ENOSYS) from an hcall, which often triggers a BUG_ON() or other failure. This fixes the problem by adding a new variant of kvmppc_get_last_inst() called kvmppc_get_last_sc(), which fetches the instruction if necessary from pc - 4 rather than pc.

On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of gcc as something like: addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least. To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator, and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add it on.
