Commit 59a53afe "powerpc: Don't setup CPUs with bad status" broke ePAPR SMP booting. ePAPR says that CPUs that aren't presently running shall have status of disabled, with enable-method being used to determine whether the CPU can be enabled. Fix by checking for spin-table, which is currently the only supported enable-method.

The commit 71ec7c55 introduced the magic symbol ".TOC." for ELFv2 ABI. This symbol is built manually and has no CRC value computed. A zero value is put in the CRC section to avoid modpost complaining about a missing CRC. Unfortunately, this breaks the kernel module loading when the kernel is relocated (kdump case for instance) because of the relocation applied to the kcrctab values. This patch compute a CRC value for the TOC symbol which will match the one compute by the kernel when it is relocated - aka '0 - relocate_start' done in maybe_relocated called by check_version (module.c).

In commit 27f44888 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines. This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running in hypervisor mode. OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it. Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware. The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line was added in commit 817c21ad "Get kernel command line accross OPAL takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be removed.

In commit 721aeaa9 "Build little endian ppc64 kernel with ABIv2", we missed some updates required in the kprobes code to make jprobes work when the kernel is built with ABI v2. Firstly update arch_deref_entry_point() to do the right thing. Now that we have added ppc_global_function_entry() we can just always use that, it will do the right thing for 32 & 64 bit and ABI v1 & v2. Secondly we need to update the code that sets up the register state before calling the jprobe handler. On ABI v1 we setup r2 to hold the TOC, on ABI v2 we need to populate r12 with the function entry point address.

There is a bug in the handling of the function entry when we are nopping out a branch from a module in ftrace. We compare the result of module_trampoline_target() with the value of ppc_function_entry(), and expect them to be true. But they never will be. module_trampoline_target() will always return the global entry point of the function, whereas ppc_function_entry() will always return the local. Fix it by using the newly added ppc_global_function_entry(). Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

In commit 24a1bdc3, "Fix ABIv2 issues with __ftrace_make_call", Anton changed the logic that creates and patches the branch, and added a thinko in the check of create_branch(). create_branch() returns the instruction that was generated, so if we get zero then it succeeded.

ABIv2 has the concept of a global and local entry point to a function. In most cases we are interested in the local entry point, and so that is what ppc_function_entry() returns. However we have a case in the ftrace code where we want the global entry point, and there may be other places we need it too. Rather than special casing each, add an accessor. For ABIv1 and 32-bit there is only a single entry point, so we return that. That means it's safe for the caller to use this without also checking the ABI version.

Currently we forward MCEs to guest which have been recovered by guest. And for unhandled errors we do not deliver the MCE to guest. It looks like with no support of FWNMI in qemu, guest just panics whenever we deliver the recovered MCEs to guest. Also, the existig code used to return to host for unhandled errors which was casuing guest to hang with soft lockups inside guest and makes it difficult to recover guest instance. This patch now forwards all fatal MCEs to guest causing guest to crash/panic. And, for recovered errors we just go back to normal functioning of guest instead of returning to host. This fixes soft lockup issues in guest. This patch also fixes an issue where guest MCE events were not logged to host console.

We don't see MCE counter getting increased in /proc/interrupts which gives false impression of no MCE occurred even when there were MCE events. The machine check early handling was added for PowerKVM and we missed to increment the MCE count in the early handler. We also increment mce counters in the machine_check_exception call, but in most cases where we handle the error hypervisor never reaches there unless its fatal and we want to crash. Only during fatal situation we may see double increment of mce count. We need to fix that. But for now it always good to have some count increased instead of zero.

Current code does not check for unhandled/unrecovered errors and return from interrupt if it is recoverable exception which in-turn triggers same machine check exception in a loop causing hypervisor to be unresponsive. This patch fixes this situation and forces hypervisor to panic for unhandled/unrecovered errors. This patch also fixes another issue where unrecoverable_exception routine was called in real mode in case of unrecoverable exception (MSR_RI = 0). This causes another exception vector 0x300 (data access) during system crash leading to confusion while debugging cause of the system crash. Also turn ME bit off while going down, so that when another MCE is hit during panic path, system will checkstop and hypervisor will get restarted cleanly by SP. With the above fixes we now throw correct console messages (see below) while crashing the system in case of unhandled/unrecoverable machine checks. -------------- Severe Machine check interrupt [[Not recovered] Initiator: CPU Error type: UE [Instruction fetch] Effective address: 0000000030002864 Oops: Machine check, sig: 7 [#1] SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA PowerNV Modules linked in: bork(O) bridge stp llc kvm [last unloaded: bork] CPU: 36 PID: 55162 Comm: bash Tainted: G O 3.14.0mce #1 task: c000002d72d022d0 ti: c000000007ec0000 task.ti: c000002d72de4000 NIP: 0000000030002864 LR: 00000000300151a4 CTR: 000000003001518c REGS: c000000007ec3d80 TRAP: 0200 Tainted: G O (3.14.0mce) MSR: 9000000000041002 <SF,HV,ME,RI> CR: 28222848 XER: 20000000 CFAR: 0000000030002838 DAR: d0000000004d0000 DSISR: 00000000 SOFTE: 1 GPR00: 000000003001512c 0000000031f92cb0 0000000030078af0 0000000030002864 GPR04: d0000000004d0000 0000000000000000 0000000030002864 ffffffffffffffc9 GPR08: 0000000000000024 0000000030008af0 000000000000002c c00000000150e728 GPR12: 9000000000041002 0000000031f90000 0000000010142550 0000000040000000 GPR16: 0000000010143cdc 0000000000000000 00000000101306fc 00000000101424dc GPR20: 00000000101424e0 000000001013c6f0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR24: 0000000010143ce0 00000000100f6440 c000002d72de7e00 c000002d72860250 GPR28: c000002d72860240 c000002d72ac0038 0000000000000008 0000000000040000 NIP [0000000030002864] 0x30002864 LR [00000000300151a4] 0x300151a4 Call Trace: Instruction dump: XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX ---[ end trace 7285f0beac1e29d3 ]--- Sending IPI to other CPUs IPI complete OPAL V3 detected ! -------------- Signed-off-by: NMahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

On PowerNV platform, EEH errors are reported by IO accessors or poller driven by interrupt. After the PE is isolated, we won't produce EEH event for the PE. The current implementation has possibility of EEH event lost in this way: The interrupt handler queues one "special" event, which drives the poller. EEH thread doesn't pick the special event yet. IO accessors kicks in, the frozen PE is marked as "isolated" and EEH event is queued to the list. EEH thread runs because of special event and purge all existing EEH events. However, we never produce an other EEH event for the frozen PE. Eventually, the PE is marked as "isolated" and we don't have EEH event to recover it. The patch fixes the issue to keep EEH events for PEs that have been marked as "isolated" with the help of additional "force" help to eeh_remove_event().

Correct the DSCR SPR becoming temporarily corrupted if a task is context switched during a transaction. The problem occurs while suspending the task and is caused by saving the DSCR to thread.dscr after it has already been set to the CPU's default value: __switch_to() calls __switch_to_tm() which calls tm_reclaim_task() which calls tm_reclaim_thread() which calls tm_reclaim() where the DSCR is set to the CPU's default __switch_to() calls _switch() where thread.dscr is set to the DSCR When the task is resumed, it's transaction will be doomed (as usual) and the DSCR SPR will be corrupted, although the checkpointed value will be correct. Therefore the DSCR will be immediately corrected by the transaction aborting, unless it has been suspended. In that case the incorrect value can be seen by the task until it resumes the transaction. The fix is to treat the DSCR similarly to the TAR and save it early in __switch_to(). A program exposing the problem is added to the kernel self tests as: tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-resched-dscr.
