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.

Commit 2fc251a8 ("powerpc: Copy only required pieces of the mm_context_t to the paca") broke the build for CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64=y and CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES=n. That only happens for a kernel built with 4K pages and HUGETLB disabled, which is why we missed it. Fix it by adding a mm_ctx_user_psize member to the paca and populating it in the appropriate places.

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. Reported-by: NMatthew R.

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: >Call Trace: >[c000000f1f603b00] [c0000000008e9458] dump_stack+0x90/0xbc (unreliable) >[c000000f1f603b30] [c0000000008e7e78] panic+0xf8/0x2c4 >[c000000f1f603bc0] [c000000000be4860] mount_block_root+0x288/0x33c >[c000000f1f603c80] [c000000000be4d14] prepare_namespace+0x1f4/0x254 >[c000000f1f603d00] [c000000000be43e8] kernel_init_freeable+0x318/0x350 >[c000000f1f603dc0] [c00000000000bd74] kernel_init+0x24/0x130 >[c000000f1f603e30] [c0000000000095b0] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xac >---[ end Kernel panic - not This functionality is implemented as a kmsg_dumper as it seems to be the most sensible way to introduce platform-specific functionality to the panic function.

Currently we copy the whole mm_context_t to the paca but only access a few bits of it. This is wasteful of space paca and also takes quite some time in the hot path of context switching. This patch pulls in only the required bits from the mm_context_t to the paca and on context switch, copies only those. Benchmarking this (On top of Anton's recent MSR context switching changes [1]) using processes and yield shows an improvement of almost 3% on POWER8: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/context_switch2.c ./context_switch2 --test=yield --process 0 0 1. https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-October/135700.htmlSigned-off-by: NMichael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> [mpe: Rename paca fields to be mm_ctx_foo rather than context_foo] Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

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 added in future.

User space checkpoint and restart tool (CRIU) needs the page's change to be soft tracked. This allows to do a pre checkpoint and then dump only touched pages. This is done by using a newly assigned PTE bit (_PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY) when the page is backed in memory, and a new _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit when the page is swapped out. To introduce a new PTE _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit value common to hash 4k and hash 64k pte, the bits already defined in hash-*4k.h should be shifted left by one. The _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit is dynamically put after the swap type in the swap pte. A check is added to ensure that the bit is not overwritten by _PAGE_HPTEFLAGS.

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). Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

-
由 Michael Ellerman 提交于
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 on POWER systems. 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.
