The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

Normal PCI enumeration via PCI config space uses __pci_read_base(), where the PCI core applies any bus-to-resource offset. But powerpc doesn't use that path when enumerating via the device tree. In 6c5705fe, I converted powerpc to use the PCI core bus-to-resource conversion, but I missed these powerpc-specific paths. Some powerpc platforms fail to boot ("Cannot allocate resource region," "device not available," etc.) between that commit and this one. This adds the corresponding bus-to-resource conversion in the paths that read BAR values from the OF device tree.

The current implementation of lazy interrupts handling has some issues that this tries to address. We don't do the various workarounds we need to do when re-enabling interrupts in some cases such as when returning from an interrupt and thus we may still lose or get delayed decrementer or doorbell interrupts. The current scheme also makes it much harder to handle the external "edge" interrupts provided by some BookE processors when using the EPR facility (External Proxy) and the Freescale Hypervisor. Additionally, we tend to keep interrupts hard disabled in a number of cases, such as decrementer interrupts, external interrupts, or when a masked decrementer interrupt is pending. This is sub-optimal. This is an attempt at fixing it all in one go by reworking the way we do the lazy interrupt disabling from the ground up. The base idea is to replace the "hard_enabled" field with a "irq_happened" field in which we store a bit mask of what interrupt occurred while soft-disabled. When re-enabling, either via arch_local_irq_restore() or when returning from an interrupt, we can now decide what to do by testing bits in that field. We then implement replaying of the missed interrupts either by re-using the existing exception frame (in exception exit case) or via the creation of a new one from an assembly trampoline (in the arch_local_irq_enable case). This removes the need to play with the decrementer to try to create fake interrupts, among others. In addition, this adds a few refinements: - We no longer hard disable decrementer interrupts that occur while soft-disabled. We now simply bump the decrementer back to max (on BookS) or leave it stopped (on BookE) and continue with hard interrupts enabled, which means that we'll potentially get better sample quality from performance monitor interrupts. - Timer, decrementer and doorbell interrupts now hard-enable shortly after removing the source of the interrupt, which means they no longer run entirely hard disabled. Again, this will improve perf sample quality. - On Book3E 64-bit, we now make the performance monitor interrupt act as an NMI like Book3S (the necessary C code for that to work appear to already be present in the FSL perf code, notably calling nmi_enter instead of irq_enter). (This also fixes a bug where BookE perfmon interrupts could clobber r14 ... oops) - We could make "masked" decrementer interrupts act as NMIs when doing timer-based perf sampling to improve the sample quality.

Original EEH implementation depends on struct pci_dn heavily. However, EEH shouldn't depend on that actually because EEH needn't share much information with other PCI components. That's to say, EEH should have worked independently. The patch introduces struct eeh_dev so that EEH core components needn't be working based on struct pci_dn in future. Also, struct pci_dn, struct eeh_dev instances are created in dynamic fasion and the binding with EEH device, OF node, PCI device is implemented as well. The EEH devices are created after PHBs are detected and initialized, but PCI emunation hasn't started yet. Apart from that, PHB might be created dynamically through DLPAR component and the EEH devices should be creatd as well. Another case might be OF node is created dynamically by DR (Dynamic Reconfiguration), which has been defined by PAPR. For those OF nodes created by DR, EEH devices should be also created accordingly. The binding between EEH device and OF node is done while the EEH device is initially created. The binding between EEH device and PCI device should be done after PCI emunation is done. Besides, PCI hotplug also needs the binding so that the EEH devices could be traced from the newly coming PCI buses or PCI devices.

We were using CR0.EQ after EXCEPTION_COMMON, hoping it still contained whether we came from userspace or kernel space. However, under some circumstances, EXCEPTION_COMMON will call C code and clobber non-volatile registers, so we really need to re-load the previous MSR from the stackframe and re-test.

If we get a floating point, altivec or vsx unavaible interrupt in kernel, we trigger a kernel error.

So just make those 3 disable interrupts unconditionally.

We currently turn interrupts back to their previous state before calling do_page_fault(). This can be annoying when debugging as a bad fault will potentially have lost some processor state before getting into the debugger. We also end up calling some generic code with interrupts enabled such as notify_page_fault() with interrupts enabled, which could be unexpected. This changes our code to behave more like other architectures, and make the assembly entry code call into do_page_faults() with interrupts disabled. They are conditionally re-enabled from within do_page_fault() in the same spot x86 does it. While there, add the might_sleep() test in the case of a successful trylock of the mmap semaphore, again like x86. Also fix a bug in the existing assembly where r12 (_MSR) could get clobbered by C calls (the DTL accounting in the exception common macro and DISABLE_INTS) in some cases.

We unconditionally hard enable interrupts. This is unnecessary as syscalls are expected to always be called with interrupts enabled. While at it, we add a WARN_ON if that is not the case and CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled (we don't want to add overhead to the fast path when this is not set though). Thus let's remove the enabling (and associated irq tracing) from the syscall entry path. Also on Book3S, replace a few mfmsr instructions with loads of PACAMSR from the PACA, which should be faster & schedule better. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The perfmon interrupt is the sole user of a special variant of the interrupt prolog which differs from the one used by external and timer interrupts in that it saves the non-volatile GPRs and doesn't turn the runlatch on.

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0 ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures.

Build the crash memory range list by traversing through system memory during the first kernel before we register for firmware-assisted dump. After the successful dump registration, initialize the elfcore header and populate PT_LOAD program headers with crash memory ranges. The elfcore header is saved in the scratch area within the reserved memory. The scratch area starts at the end of the memory reserved for saving RMR region contents. The scratch area contains fadump crash info structure that contains magic number for fadump validation and physical address where the eflcore header can be found. This structure will also be used to pass some important crash info data to the second kernel which will help second kernel to populate ELF core header with correct data before it gets exported through /proc/vmcore. Since the firmware preserves the entire partition memory at the time of crash the contents of the scratch area will be preserved till second kernel boot. Since the memory dump exported through /proc/vmcore is in ELF format similar to kdump, it will help us to reuse the kdump infrastructure for dump capture and filtering. Unlike phyp dump, userspace tool does not need to refer any sysfs interface while reading /proc/vmcore. NOTE: The current design implementation does not address a possibility of introducing additional fields (in future) to this structure without affecting compatibility. It's on TODO list to come up with better approach to address this.
