All PowerPC CPUs other than the original PPC601 have a timebase register rather than the "real-time clock" (RTC) register that the PPC601 (and the original POWER and POWER2 CPUs) had. Currently we have a CPU feature bit to indicate the presence of the timebase, but it makes more sense to use a bit to indicate the unusual situation rather than the common situation. This therefore defines a CPU_FTR_USE_RTC bit in place of the CPU_FTR_USE_TB bit, and arranges for it to be set on PPC601 systems.

PAPR defines 'ibm,processor-storage-keys' property. It exports two values. The first value holds the number of data-access keys and the second holds the number of instruction-access keys. Due to a bug in the firmware, instruction-access keys is always reported as zero. However any key can be configured to disable data-access and/or disable execution-access. The inavailablity of the second value is not a big handicap, though it could have been used to determine if the platform supported disable-execution-access. Non-PAPR platforms do not define this property in the device tree yet. Fortunately power8 is the only released Non-PAPR platform that is supported. Here, we hardcode the number of supported pkey to 32, by consulting the PowerISA3.0 This patch calculates the number of keys supported by the platform. Also it determines the platform support for read/write/execution access support for pkeys. Signed-off-by: NRam Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com> [mpe: Use a PVR check instead of CPU_FTR for execute.

There are several cases outside the normal address space management where a CPU's entire local TLB is to be flushed: 1. Booting the kernel, in case something has left stale entries in the TLB (e.g., kexec). 2. Machine check, to clean corrupted TLB entries. One other place where the TLB is flushed, is waking from deep idle states. The flush is a side-effect of calling ->cpu_restore with the intention of re-setting various SPRs. The flush itself is unnecessary because in the first case, the TLB should not acquire new corrupted TLB entries as part of sleep/wake (though they may be lost). This type of TLB flush is coded inflexibly, several times for each CPU type, and they have a number of problems with ISA v3.0B: - The current radix mode of the MMU is not taken into account, it is always done as a hash flushn For IS=2 (LPID-matching flush from host) and IS=3 with HV=0 (guest kernel flush), tlbie(l) is undefined if the R field does not match the current radix mode. - ISA v3.0B hash must flush the partition and process table caches as well. - ISA v3.0B radix must flush partition and process scoped translations, partition and process table caches, and also the page walk cache. So consolidate the flushing code and implement it in C and inline asm under the mm/ directory with the rest of the flush code. Add ISA v3.0B cases for radix and hash, and use the radix flush in radix environment. Provide a way for IS=2 (LPID flush) to specify the radix mode of the partition. Have KVM pass in the radix mode of the guest. Take out the flushes from early cputable/dt_cpu_ftrs detection hooks, and move it later in the boot process after, the MMU registers are set up and before relocation is first turned on. The TLB flush is no longer called when restoring from deep idle states. This was not be done as a separate step because booting secondaries uses the same cpu_restore as idle restore, which needs the TLB flush.

Recently we added a CPU feature for Power9 DD2.0, to capture the fact that some workarounds are required only on Power9 DD1 and DD2.0 but not DD2.1 or later. Then in commit 9d2f510a ("powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and DD2.0 ERAT workaround on DD2.1") and commit e3646330 "powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and DD2.0 PMU workaround on DD2.1") we changed CPU_FTR_SECTIONs to check for DD1 or DD20, eg: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION PPC_INVALIDATE_ERAT END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_POWER9_DD1 | CPU_FTR_POWER9_DD20) Unfortunately although this reads as "if set DD1 or DD2.0", the or is a bitwise or and actually generates a mask of both bits. The code that does the feature patching then checks that the value of the CPU features masked with that mask are equal to the mask. So the end result is we're checking for DD1 and DD20 being set, which never happens. Yes the API is terrible. Removing the ERAT workaround on DD2.0 results in random SEGVs, the system tends to boot, but things randomly die including sometimes dhclient, udev etc. To fix the problem and hopefully avoid it in future, we remove the DD2.0 CPU feature and instead add a DD2.1 (or later) feature. This allows us to easily express that the workarounds are required if DD2.1 is not set. At some point we will drop the DD1 workarounds entirely and some of this can be cleaned up. Fixes: 9d2f510a ("powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and DD2.0 ERAT workaround on DD2.1") Fixes: e3646330 ("powerpc/64s/idle: avoid POWER9 DD1 and DD2.0 PMU workaround on DD2.1") Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

We are running low on CPU feature bits, so we only want to use them when it's really necessary. CPU_FTR_SUBCORE is only used in one place, and only in C, so we don't need it in order to make asm patching work. It can only be set on "Power8" CPUs, which in practice means POWER8, POWER8E and POWER8NVL. There are no plans to implement it on future CPUs, but if there ever were we could retrofit it then. Although KVM uses subcores, it never looks at the CPU feature, it either looks at the ISA level or the threads_per_subcore value. So drop the CPU feature and do a PVR check instead. Drop the device tree "subcore" feature as we no longer support doing anything with it, and we will drop it from skiboot too. Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

We do binary patching of asm code using CPU features, which is a one-time operation, done during early boot. However checks of CPU features in C code are currently done at run time, even though the set of CPU features can never change after boot. We can optimise this by using jump labels to implement cpu_has_feature(), meaning checks in C code are binary patched into a single nop or branch. For a C sequence along the lines of: if (cpu_has_feature(FOO)) return 2; The generated code before is roughly: ld r9,-27640(r2) ld r9,0(r9) lwz r9,32(r9) cmpwi cr7,r9,0 bge cr7, 1f li r3,2 blr 1: ...

We plan to use jump label for cpu_has_feature(). In order to implement this we need to include the linux/jump_label.h in asm/cputable.h. Unfortunately if we do that it leads to an include loop. The root of the problem seems to be that reg.h needs cputable.h (for CPU_FTRs), and then cputable.h via jump_label.h eventually pulls in hw_irq.h which needs reg.h (for MSR_EE). So move cpu_has_feature() to a separate file on its own.

This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this behaviour to userspace. Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active transaction fails. This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was documented as unsupported. It doesn't reduce functionality as syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that the transaction be explicitly suspended. It also provides a consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390). Performance measurements using http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

We have been a bit slack about updating the CPU_FTRS_POSSIBLE and CPU_FTRS_ALWAYS masks. When we added POWER8, and also POWER8E we forgot to update the ALWAYS mask. And when we added POWER8_DD1 we forgot to update both the POSSIBLE and ALWAYS masks. Luckily this hasn't caused any actual bugs AFAICS. Failing to update the ALWAYS mask just forgoes a potential optimisation opportunity. Failing to update the POSSIBLE mask for POWER8_DD1 is also OK because it only removes a bit rather than adding any. Regardless they should all be in both masks so as to avoid any future bugs when the set of ALWAYS/POSSIBLE bits changes, or the masks themselves change.

We inadvertently broke power3 support back in 3.4 with commit f5339277 "powerpc: Remove FW_FEATURE ISERIES from arch code". No one noticed until at least 3.9. By then we'd also broken it with the optimised memcpy, copy_to/from_user and clear_user routines. We don't want to add any more complexity to those just to support ancient cpus, so it seems like it's a good time to drop support for power3 and earlier.

These processors do not currently support doorbell IPIs, so remove them from the feature list if we are at DD 1.xx for the 0x004d part. This fixes a regression caused by d4e58e59 (powerpc/powernv: Enable POWER8 doorbell IPIs). With that patch the kernel would hang at boot when calling smp_call_function_many, as the doorbell would not be received by the target CPUs: .smp_call_function_many+0x2bc/0x3c0 (unreliable) .on_each_cpu_mask+0x30/0x100 .cpuidle_register_driver+0x158/0x1a0 .cpuidle_register+0x2c/0x110 .powernv_processor_idle_init+0x23c/0x2c0 .do_one_initcall+0xd4/0x260 .kernel_init_freeable+0x25c/0x33c .kernel_init+0x1c/0x120 .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0x7c Fixes: d4e58e59 (powerpc/powernv: Enable POWER8 doorbell IPIs) Signed-off-by: NJoel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Some power8 revisions have a hardware bug where we can lose a Performance Monitor (PMU) exception under certain circumstances. We will be adding a workaround for this case, see the next commit for details. The observed behaviour is that writing PMAO doesn't cause an exception as we would expect, hence the name of the feature.

This patch introduces flush_tlb operation in cpu_spec structure. This will help us to invoke appropriate CPU-side flush tlb routine. This patch adds the foundation to invoke CPU specific flush routine for respective architectures. Currently this patch introduce flush_tlb for p7 and p8.

This patch adds the early machine check function pointer in cputable for CPU specific early machine check handling. The early machine handle routine will be called in real mode to handle SLB and TLB errors. We can not reuse the existing machine_check hook because it is always invoked in kernel virtual mode and we would already be in trouble if we get SLB or TLB errors. This patch just sets up a mechanism to invoke CPU specific handler. The subsequent patches will populate the function pointer.

Erratum A-006598 says that 64-bit mftb is not atomic -- it's subject to a similar race condition as doing mftbu/mftbl on 32-bit. The lower half of timebase is updated before the upper half; thus, we can share the workaround for a similar bug on Cell. This workaround involves looping if the lower half of timebase is zero, thus avoiding the need for a scratch register (other than CR0). This workaround must be avoided when the timebase is frozen, such as during the timebase sync code. This deals with kernel and vdso accesses, but other userspace accesses will of course need to be fixed elsewhere. Signed-off-by: NScott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com>

When introducing support for DABRX in 4474ef05, we broke older 32-bit CPUs that don't have that register. Some CPUs have a DABR but not DABRX. Configuration are: - No 32bit CPUs have DABRX but some have DABR. - POWER4+ and below have the DABR but no DABRX. - 970 and POWER5 and above have DABR and DABRX. - POWER8 has DAWR, hence no DABRX. This introduces CPU_FTR_DABRX and sets it on appropriate CPUs. We use the top 64 bits for CPU FTR bits since only 64 bit CPUs have this. Processors that don't have the DABRX will still work as they will fall back to software filtering these breakpoints via perf_exclude_event().
