Adam Lackorzynski reported the following build failure on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU configuration: CC arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.o arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c: In function ‘rtas_cpu_state_change_mask’: arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c:843:4: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cpu_down’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] cc1: all warnings being treated as errors make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.o] Error 1 make: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel] Error 2 The build fails because cpu_down() is defined only under CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU. Looking further, the mobility code in pseries is one of the call-sites which uses rtas_ibm_suspend_me(), which in turn calls rtas_cpu_state_change_mask(). And the mobility code is unconditionally compiled-in (it does not fall under any Kconfig option). And commit 120496ac (powerpc: Bring all threads online prior to migration/hibernation) which introduced this build regression is critical for the proper functioning of the migration code. So it appears that the only solution to this problem is to enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU if SMP is enabled on PPC_PSERIES platforms. So make that change in the Kconfig.

This adds the remaining two hypercalls defined by PAPR for manipulating the XICS interrupt controller, H_IPOLL and H_XIRR_X. H_IPOLL returns information about the priority and pending interrupts for a virtual cpu, without changing any state. H_XIRR_X is like H_XIRR in that it reads and acknowledges the highest-priority pending interrupt, but it also returns the timestamp (timebase register value) from when the interrupt was first received by the hypervisor. Currently we just return the current time, since we don't do any software queueing of virtual interrupts inside the XICS emulation code. These hcalls are not currently used by Linux guests, but may be in future.

由 Priyanka Jain 提交于
Commit a9c4e541 "powerpc/kprobe: Complete kprobe and migrate exception frame" introduced a regression: While returning from exception handling in case of PREEMPT enabled, _TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit is checked in TI_FLAGS (thread_info flag) of current task. Only if this bit is set, it should continue with the process of calling preempt_schedule_irq() to schedule highest priority task if available. Current code assumes that r8 contains TI_FLAGS and check this for _TIF_NEED_RESCHED, but as r8 is modified in the code which executes before this check, r8 no longer contains the expected TI_FLAGS information. As a result check for comparison with _TIF_NEED_RESCHED was failing even if NEED_RESCHED bit is set in the current thread_info flag. Due to this, preempt_schedule_irq() and in turn scheduler was not getting called even if highest priority task is ready for execution. So, store temporary results in r0 instead of r8 to prevent r8 from getting modified as subsequent code is dependent on its value.

If a hash bucket gets full, we "evict" a more/less random entry from it. When we do that we don't invalidate the TLB (hpte_remove) because we assume the old translation is still technically "valid". This implies that when we are invalidating or updating pte, even if HPTE entry is not valid we should do a tlb invalidate.

Maynard informed me that neither the oprofile kernel module nor oprofile userspace has been updated to support that "legacy" oprofile module interface for power8, which is indicated by "ppc64/power8." This results in no samples. The solution is to default to the "timer" type, instead. The raw entry also should be updated, as "ppc64/ibm-compat-v1" indicates to oprofile userspace to use "compatibility events" which are obsolete in ISA 2.07.

When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional suspend context. We need to abort these transactions and send them back to userspace for the hardware to rollback. We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the kernel will operate in the same suspend context. This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the persistent error to the user.

Recent commit e61133dd added support for a new firmware feature to force an adapter to use 32 bit MSIs. However, this firmware is not available for all systems. The hack below allows devices needing 32 bit MSIs to work on these systems as well.

Currently we only set the "to" address in the branch stack when the CPU explicitly gives us a value. Unfortunately it only does this for XL form branches (eg blr, bctr, bctar) and not I and B form branches (eg b, bc). Fortunately if we read the instruction from memory we can extract the offset of a branch and calculate the target address. This adds a function power_pmu_bhrb_to() to calculate the target/to address of the corresponding I and B form branches. It handles branches in both user and kernel spaces. It also plumbs this into the perf brhb reading code. Signed-off-by: NMichael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The current Branch History Rolling Buffer (BHRB) code misinterprets the order of entries in the hardware buffer. It assumes that a branch target address will be read _after_ its corresponding branch.

MSR_DE is not cleared on entry to the kernel, and we don't clear it explicitly outside of debug code. If we have MSR_DE set in prime_debug_regs(), and the new thread has events enabled in DBCR0 (e.g. ICMP is set in thread->dbsr0, even though it was cleared in the real DBCR0 when the thread got scheduled out), we'll end up taking a debug exception in the kernel when DBCR0 is loaded. DSRR0 will not point to an exception vector, and the kernel ends up hanging at kernel_dbg_exc. Fix this by always clearing MSR_DE when we load new debug state. Another observed source of kernel_dbg_exc hangs is with the branch taken event. If this event is active, but we take a non-debug trap (e.g. a TLB miss or an asynchronous interrupt) before the next branch. We end up taking a branch-taken debug exception on the initial branch instruction of the exception vector, but because the debug exception is DBSR_BT rather than DBSR_IC we branch to kernel_dbg_exc before even checking the DSRR0 address. Fix this by checking for DBSR_BT as well as DBSR_IC, which is what 32-bit does and what the comments suggest was intended in the 64-bit code as well.
