The ibm,powerpc-cpu-features device tree binding describes CPU features with ASCII names and extensible compatibility, privilege, and enablement metadata that allows improved flexibility and compatibility with new hardware. The interface is described in detail in ibm,powerpc-cpu-features.txt in this patch. Currently this code is not enabled by default, and there are no released firmwares that provide the binding.

Add a simple NMI IPI system that handles concurrency and reentrancy. The platform does not have to implement a true non-maskable interrupt, the default is to simply use the debugger break IPI message. This has now been co-opted for a general IPI message, and users (debugger and crash) have been reimplemented on top of the NMI system.

Add powerpc support for mmap_rnd_bits and mmap_rnd_compat_bits, which are two sysctls that allow a user to configure the number of bits of randomness used for ASLR. Because of the way the Kconfig for ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS is defined, we have to construct at least the MIN value in Kconfig, vs in a header which would be more natural. Given that we just go ahead and do it all in Kconfig. At least according to the code (the documentation makes no mention of it), the value is defined as the number of bits of randomisation *of the page*, not the address. This makes some sense, with larger page sizes more of the low bits are forced to zero, which would reduce the randomisation if we didn't take the PAGE_SIZE into account. However it does mean the min/max values have to change depending on the PAGE_SIZE in order to actually limit the amount of address space consumed by the randomisation. The result of that is that we have to define the default values based on both 32-bit vs 64-bit, but also the configured PAGE_SIZE. Furthermore now that we have 128TB address space support on Book3S, we also have to take that into account. Finally we can wire up the value in arch_mmap_rnd().

We have a big list of selects under CONFIG_PPC, and currently they're completely unsorted. This means people tend to add new selects at the bottom of the list, and so two commits which both add a new select will often conflict. Instead sort it alphabetically. This is nicer in and of itself, but also means two commits that add a new select will have a greater chance of not conflicting. Add a note at the top and bottom asking people to keep it sorted.

Current infrastructure of kprobe uses the unconditional trap instruction to probe a running kernel. Optprobe allows kprobe to replace the trap with a branch instruction to a detour buffer. Detour buffer contains instructions to create an in memory pt_regs. Detour buffer also has a call to optimized_callback() which in turn call the pre_handler(). After the execution of the pre-handler, a call is made for instruction emulation. The NIP is determined in advanced through dummy instruction emulation and a branch instruction is created to the NIP at the end of the trampoline. To address the limitation of branch instruction in POWER architecture, detour buffer slot is allocated from a reserved area. For the time being, 64KB is reserved in memory for this purpose. Instructions which can be emulated using analyse_instr() are the candidates for optimization. Before optimization ensure that the address range between the detour buffer allocated and the instruction being probed is within +/- 32MB.

The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value. This has a couple of downsides: - Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes for each CRC on 64 bit architectures, - On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the core module code) - Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for CRCs. Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC value is stored. So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the __CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use 32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained for 32-bit architectures.

This patch implements HW breakpoint on the 8xx. The 8xx has capability to manage HW breakpoints, which is slightly different than BOOK3S: 1/ The breakpoint match doesn't trigger a DSI exception but a dedicated data breakpoint exception. 2/ The breakpoint happens after the instruction has completed, no need to single step or emulate the instruction, 3/ Matched address is not set in DAR but in BAR, 4/ DABR register doesn't exist, instead we have registers LCTRL1, LCTRL2 and CMPx registers, 5/ The match on one comparator is not on a double word but on a single word. The patch does: 1/ Prepare the dedicated registers in call to __set_dabr(). In order to emulate the double word handling of BOOK3S, comparator E is set to DABR address value and comparator F to address + 4. Then breakpoint 1 is set to match comparator E or F, 2/ Skip the singlestepping stage when compiled for CONFIG_PPC_8xx, 3/ Implement the exception. In that exception, the matched address is taken from SPRN_BAR and manage as if it was from SPRN_DAR. 4/ I/D TLB error exception routines perform a tlbie on bad TLBs. That tlbie triggers the breakpoint exception when performed on the breakpoint address. For this reason, the routine returns if the match is from one of those two tlbie.

Patch series "ima: carry the measurement list across kexec", v8. The TPM PCRs are only reset on a hard reboot. In order to validate a TPM's quote after a soft reboot (eg. kexec -e), the IMA measurement list of the running kernel must be saved and then restored on the subsequent boot, possibly of a different architecture. The existing securityfs binary_runtime_measurements file conveniently provides a serialized format of the IMA measurement list. This patch set serializes the measurement list in this format and restores it. Up to now, the binary_runtime_measurements was defined as architecture native format. The assumption being that userspace could and would handle any architecture conversions. With the ability of carrying the measurement list across kexec, possibly from one architecture to a different one, the per boot architecture information is lost and with it the ability of recalculating the template digest hash. To resolve this problem, without breaking the existing ABI, this patch set introduces the boot command line option "ima_canonical_fmt", which is arbitrarily defined as little endian. The need for this boot command line option will be limited to the existing version 1 format of the binary_runtime_measurements. Subsequent formats will be defined as canonical format (eg. TPM 2.0 support for larger digests). A simplified method of Thiago Bauermann's "kexec buffer handover" patch series for carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec is included in this patch set. The simplified method requires all file measurements be taken prior to executing the kexec load, as subsequent measurements will not be carried across the kexec and restored. This patch (of 10): The IMA kexec buffer allows the currently running kernel to pass the measurement list via a kexec segment to the kernel that will be kexec'd. The second kernel can check whether the previous kernel sent the buffer and retrieve it. This is the architecture-specific part which enables IMA to receive the measurement list passed by the previous kernel. It will be used in the next patch. The change in machine_kexec_64.c is to factor out the logic of removing an FDT memory reservation so that it can be used by remove_ima_buffer.

This is used in poison.h to offset poison values so that they don't point directly into user space. The value we choose sits roughly between user and kernel space, which means on their own the poison values don't point anywhere useful.

Commit 2965faa5 ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in. These options can be set independently from each other. Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

This patch provides the necessary infrastructure to allow drivers to be automatically loaded via udev. It implements the minimum required to be able to use module_cpu_feature_match() to trigger the GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE mechanisms. The features exposed are a mirror of the cpu_user_features (converted to an offset from a mask). This decision was made to ensure that the behavior between features for module loading and userspace are consistent.

It is seldom used in the kernel code and can be easily replaced by either RELOCATABLE or PPC32. So there is no reason to keep a separate kernel option for this. Signed-off-by: NKevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

It makes no sense to keep two separate RELOCATABLE config entries for ppc32 and ppc64 respectively. Merge them into one and move it to a common place. Signed-off-by: NKevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

In the current code, the RELOCATABLE will be forcedly enabled when enabling CRASH_DUMP. But for ppc32, the RELOCABLE also depend on ADVANCED_OPTIONS and select NONSTATIC_KERNEL. This will cause the following build error when CRASH_DUMP=y && ADVANCED_OPTIONS=n because the select of NONSTATIC_KERNEL doesn't take effect. arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h: In function 'virt_to_phys': arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h:113:26: error: 'virt_phys_offset' undeclared (first use in this function) #define VIRT_PHYS_OFFSET virt_phys_offset ^ It doesn't have any strong reasons to make the RELOCATABLE depend on ADVANCED_OPTIONS. So remove this dependency to fix this issue. Signed-off-by: NKevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

CONFIG_PIN_TLB maps IMMR area and the first 24 Mbytes of memory. In some circunstances it might be more interesting to not map IMMR but map 32 Mbytes of memory instead. Therefore we add config option CONFIG_PIN_TLB_IMMR to select if IMMR shall be pinned or not, hence whether we pin 24 or 32 Mbytes of RAM Signed-off-by: NChristophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: NScott Wood <oss@buserror.net>

This patch provides VIRT_CPU_ACCOUTING to PPC32 architecture. PPC32 doesn't have the PACA structure, so we use the task_info structure to store the accounting data. In order to reuse on PPC32 the PPC64 functions, all u64 data has been replaced by 'unsigned long' so that it is u32 on PPC32 and u64 on PPC64 Signed-off-by: NChristophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: NScott Wood <oss@buserror.net>

PPC64 eBPF JIT compiler. Enable with: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable or echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable ... to see the generated JIT code. This can further be processed with tools/net/bpf_jit_disasm. With CONFIG_TEST_BPF=m and 'modprobe test_bpf': test_bpf: Summary: 305 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [297/297 JIT'ed] ... on both ppc64 BE and LE.

Classic BPF JIT was never ported completely to work on little endian powerpc. However, it can be enabled and will crash the system when used. As such, disable use of BPF JIT on ppc64le.
