[ Upstream commit c73049389e58c01e2e3bbfae900c8daeee177191 ]

When running in a non-root time namespace, the global VDSO data page
is replaced by a dedicated namespace data page and the global data
page is mapped next to it. Detailed explanations can be found at
commit 660fd04f9317 ("lib/vdso: Prepare for time namespace support").

When it happens, __kernel_get_syscall_map and __kernel_get_tbfreq
and __kernel_sync_dicache don't work anymore because they read 0
instead of the data they need.

To address that, clock_mode has to be read. When it is set to
VDSO_CLOCKMODE_TIMENS, it means it is a dedicated namespace data page
and the global data is located on the following page.

Add a macro called get_realdatapage which reads clock_mode and add
PAGE_SIZE to the pointer provided by get_datapage macro when
clock_mode is equal to VDSO_CLOCKMODE_TIMENS. Use this new macro
instead of get_datapage macro except for time functions as they handle
it internally.

<title>powerpc/atomic: Use YZ constraints for DS-form instructions</title>

commit 39190ac7cff1fd15135fa8e658030d9646fdb5f2 upstream.

The 'ld' and 'std' instructions require a 4-byte aligned displacement
because they are DS-form instructions. But the "m" asm constraint
doesn't enforce that.

That can lead to build errors if the compiler chooses a non-aligned
displacement, as seen with GCC 14:

  /tmp/ccuSzwiR.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/ccuSzwiR.s:2579: Error: operand out of domain (39 is not a multiple of 4)
  make[5]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:229: net/core/page_pool.o] Error 1

Dumping the generated assembler shows:

  ld 8,39(8)       # MEM[(const struct atomic64_t *)_29].counter, t

Use the YZ constraints to tell the compiler either to generate a DS-form
displacement, or use an X-form instruction, either of which prevents the
build error.

See commit 2d43cc701b96 ("powerpc/uaccess: Fix build errors seen with
GCC 13/14") for more details on the constraint letters.

<title>powerpc/64e: remove unused IBM HTW code</title>

[ Upstream commit 88715b6e5d529f4ef3830ad2a893e4624c6af0b8 ]

Patch series "Reimplement huge pages without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500,
book3s/64)", v7.

Unlike most architectures, powerpc 8xx HW requires a two-level pagetable
topology for all page sizes.  So a leaf PMD-contig approach is not
feasible as such.

Possible sizes on 8xx are 4k, 16k, 512k and 8M.

First level (PGD/PMD) covers 4M per entry.  For 8M pages, two PMD entries
must point to a single entry level-2 page table.  Until now that was done
using hugepd.  This series changes it to use standard page tables where
the entry is replicated 1024 times on each of the two pagetables refered
by the two associated PMD entries for that 8M page.

For e500 and book3s/64 there are less constraints because it is not tied
to the HW assisted tablewalk like on 8xx, so it is easier to use leaf PMDs
(and PUDs).

On e500 the supported page sizes are 4M, 16M, 64M, 256M and 1G.  All at
PMD level on e500/32 (mpc85xx) and mix of PMD and PUD for e500/64.  We
encode page size with 4 available bits in PTE entries.  On e300/32 PGD
entries size is increases to 64 bits in order to allow leaf-PMD entries
because PTE are 64 bits on e500.

On book3s/64 only the hash-4k mode is concerned.  It supports 16M pages as
cont-PMD and 16G pages as cont-PUD.  In other modes (radix-4k, radix-6k
and hash-64k) the sizes match with PMD and PUD sizes so that's just leaf
entries.  The hash processing make things a bit more complex.  To ease
things, __hash_page_huge() is modified to bail out when DIRTY or ACCESSED
bits are missing, leaving it to mm core to fix it.

This patch (of 23):

The nohash HTW_IBM (Hardware Table Walk) code is unused since support for
A2 was removed in commit fb5a515704d7 ("powerpc: Remove platforms/ wsp and
associated pieces") (2014).

The remaining supported CPUs use either no HTW (data_tlb_miss_bolted), or
the e6500 HTW (data_tlb_miss_e6500).

<title>powerpc/uaccess: Use YZ asm constraint for ld</title>

<content type='text'>
The 'ld' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because it
is a DS-form instruction. But the "m" asm constraint doesn't enforce
that.

Add a special case of __get_user_asm2_goto() so that the "YZ" constraint
can be used for "ld".

The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "ld" or X-form "ldx" as appropriate.

The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.

No build errors have been reported due to this, but the possibility is
there depending on compiler code generation decisions.

Building ppc64le_defconfig with GCC 14 fails with assembler errors:

    CC      fs/readdir.o
  /tmp/ccdQn0mD.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/ccdQn0mD.s:212: Error: operand out of domain (18 is not a multiple of 4)

  ... [6 lines]
  /tmp/ccdQn0mD.s:1699: Error: operand out of domain (18 is not a multiple of 4)

A snippet of the asm shows:

  # ../fs/readdir.c:210:         unsafe_copy_dirent_name(dirent-&gt;d_name, name, namlen, efault_end);
         ld 9,0(29)       # MEM[(u64 *)name_38(D) + _88 * 1], MEM[(u64 *)name_38(D) + _88 * 1]
  # 210 "../fs/readdir.c" 1
         1:      std 9,18(8)     # put_user       # *__pus_addr_52, MEM[(u64 *)name_38(D) + _88 * 1]

The 'std' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because
it is a DS-form instruction, and as the assembler says, 18 is not a
multiple of 4.

A similar error is seen with GCC 13 and CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP=y.

The fix is to change the constraint on the memory operand to put_user(),
from "m" which is a general memory reference to "YZ".

The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "std" or X-form "stdx" as appropriate.

The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.

Unfortunately clang doesn't support the "Y" constraint so that has to be
behind an ifdef.

Although the build error is only seen with GCC 13/14, that appears
to just be luck. The constraint has been incorrect since it was first
added.

Pull tracing cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
 "Remove second argument of __assign_str()

  The __assign_str() macro logic of the TRACE_EVENT() macro was
  optimized so that it no longer needs the second argument. The
  __assign_str() is always matched with __string() field that takes a
  field name and the source for that field:

    __string(field, source)

  The TRACE_EVENT() macro logic will save off the source value and then
  use that value to copy into the ring buffer via the __assign_str().

  Before commit c1fa617caeb0 ("tracing: Rework __assign_str() and
  __string() to not duplicate getting the string"), the __assign_str()
  needed the second argument which would perform the same logic as the
  __string() source parameter did. Not only would this add overhead, but
  it was error prone as if the __assign_str() source produced something
  different, it may not have allocated enough for the string in the ring
  buffer (as the __string() source was used to determine how much to
  allocate)

  Now that the __assign_str() just uses the same string that was used in
  __string() it no longer needs the source parameter. It can now be
  removed"

Pull more non-mm updates from Andrew Morton:

 - A series ("kbuild: enable more warnings by default") from Arnd
   Bergmann which enables a number of additional build-time warnings. We
   fixed all the fallout which we could find, there may still be a few
   stragglers.

 - Samuel Holland has developed the series "Unified cross-architecture
   kernel-mode FPU API". This does a lot of consolidation of
   per-architecture kernel-mode FPU usage and enables the use of newer
   AMD GPUs on RISC-V.

 - Tao Su has fixed some selftests build warnings in the series
   "Selftests: Fix compilation warnings due to missing _GNU_SOURCE
   definition".

 - This pull also includes a nilfs2 fixup from Ryusuke Konishi.

With the rework of how the __string() handles dynamic strings where it
saves off the source string in field in the helper structure[1], the
assignment of that value to the trace event field is stored in the helper
value and does not need to be passed in again.

This means that with:

  __string(field, mystring)

Which use to be assigned with __assign_str(field, mystring), no longer
needs the second parameter and it is unused. With this, __assign_str()
will now only get a single parameter.

There's over 700 users of __assign_str() and because coccinelle does not
handle the TRACE_EVENT() macro I ended up using the following sed script:

  git grep -l __assign_str | while read a ; do
      sed -e 's/\(__assign_str([^,]*[^ ,]\) *,[^;]*/\1)/' $a &gt; /tmp/test-file;
      mv /tmp/test-file $a;
  done

I then searched for __assign_str() that did not end with ';' as those
were multi line assignments that the sed script above would fail to catch.

Note, the same updates will need to be done for:

  __assign_str_len()
  __assign_rel_str()
  __assign_rel_str_len()

I tested this with both an allmodconfig and an allyesconfig (build only for both).
