      powerpc: fix exception clearing in e500 SPE float emulation · 640e9225
      由 Joseph Myers 提交于 
      The e500 SPE floating-point emulation code clears existing exceptions
(__FPU_FPSCR &= ~FP_EX_MASK;) before ORing in the exceptions from the
emulated operation.  However, these exception bits are the "sticky",
cumulative exception bits, and should only be cleared by the user
program setting SPEFSCR, not implicitly by any floating-point
instruction (whether executed purely by the hardware or emulated).
The spurious clearing of these bits shows up as missing exceptions in
glibc testing.

Fixing this, however, is not as simple as just not clearing the bits,
because while the bits may be from previous floating-point operations
(in which case they should not be cleared), the processor can also set
the sticky bits itself before the interrupt for an exception occurs,
and this can happen in cases when IEEE 754 semantics are that the
sticky bit should not be set.  Specifically, the "invalid" sticky bit
is set in various cases with non-finite operands, where IEEE 754
semantics do not involve raising such an exception, and the
"underflow" sticky bit is set in cases of exact underflow, whereas
IEEE 754 semantics are that this flag is set only for inexact
underflow.  Thus, for correct emulation the kernel needs to know the
setting of these two sticky bits before the instruction being
emulated.

When a floating-point operation raises an exception, the kernel can
note the state of the sticky bits immediately afterwards.  Some
<fenv.h> functions that affect the state of these bits, such as
fesetenv and feholdexcept, need to use prctl with PR_GET_FPEXC and
PR_SET_FPEXC anyway, and so it is natural to record the state of those
bits during that call into the kernel and so avoid any need for a
separate call into the kernel to inform it of a change to those bits.
Thus, the interface I chose to use (in this patch and the glibc port)
is that one of those prctl calls must be made after any userspace
change to those sticky bits, other than through a floating-point
operation that traps into the kernel anyway.  feclearexcept and
fesetexceptflag duly make those calls, which would not be required
were it not for this issue.

The previous EGLIBC port, and the uClibc code copied from it, is
fundamentally broken as regards any use of prctl for floating-point
exceptions because it didn't use the PR_FP_EXC_SW_ENABLE bit in its
prctl calls (and did various worse things, such as passing a pointer
when prctl expected an integer).  If you avoid anything where prctl is
used, the clearing of sticky bits still means it will never give
anything approximating correct exception semantics with existing
kernels.  I don't believe the patch makes things any worse for
existing code that doesn't try to inform the kernel of changes to
sticky bits - such code may get incorrect exceptions in some cases,
but it would have done so anyway in other cases.

      powerpc/booke64: Add LRAT error exception handler · 228b1a47
      由 Mihai Caraman 提交于 
      LRAT (Logical to Real Address Translation) present in MMU v2 provides hardware
translation from a logical page number (LPN) to a real page number (RPN) when
tlbwe is executed by a guest or when a page table translation occurs from a
guest virtual address.

Add LRAT error exception handler to Booke3E 64-bit kernel and the basic KVM
handler to avoid build breakage. This is a prerequisite for KVM LRAT support
that will follow.

      powerpc: Fix PTE page address mismatch in pgtable ctor/dtor · cf77ee54
      由 Hong H. Pham 提交于 
      In pte_alloc_one(), pgtable_page_ctor() is passed an address that has
not been converted by page_address() to the newly allocated PTE page.

When the PTE is freed, __pte_free_tlb() calls pgtable_page_dtor()
with an address to the PTE page that has been converted by page_address().
The mismatch in the PTE's page address causes pgtable_page_dtor() to access
invalid memory, so resources for that PTE (such as the page lock) is not
properly cleaned up.

On PPC32, only SMP kernels are affected.

On PPC64, only SMP kernels with 4K page size are affected.

This bug was introduced by commit d614bb04
"powerpc: Move the pte free routines from common header".

On a preempt-rt kernel, a spinlock is dynamically allocated for each
PTE in pgtable_page_ctor().  When the PTE is freed, calling
pgtable_page_dtor() with a mismatched page address causes a memory leak,
as the pointer to the PTE's spinlock is bogus.

On mainline, there isn't any immediately obvious symptoms, but the
problem still exists here.

      powerpc/kdump: Adding symbols in vmcoreinfo to facilitate dump filtering · 8ff81271
      由 Hari Bathini 提交于 
      When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP option is used in kernel, makedumpfile fails
to filter vmcore dump as it fails to do vmemmap translations. So far
dump filtering on ppc64 never had to deal with vmemmap addresses seperately
as vmemmap regions where mapped in zone normal. But with the inclusion of
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP config option in kernel, this vmemmap address
translation support becomes necessary for dump filtering. For vmemmap adress
translation, few kernel symbols are needed by dump filtering tool. This patch
adds those symbols to vmcoreinfo, which a dump filtering tool can use for
filtering the kernel dump. Tested this changes successfully with makedumpfile
tool that supports vmemmap to physical address translation outside zone normal.
