commit 8183d99f4a22c2abbc543847a588df3666ef0c0c upstream.

feature fixups need to use patch_instruction() early in the boot,
even before the code is relocated to its final address, requiring
patch_instruction() to use PTRRELOC() in order to address data.

But feature fixups applies on code before it is set to read only,
even for modules. Therefore, feature fixups can use
raw_patch_instruction() instead.

commit 4628a64591e6cee181237060961e98c615c33966 upstream.

Currently _PAGE_DEVMAP bit is not preserved in mprotect(2) calls. As a
result we will see warnings such as:

preserved by mprotect(2).

<title>powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections</title>

commit 51c3c62b58b357e8d35e4cc32f7b4ec907426fe3 upstream.

This stops us from doing code patching in init sections after they've
been freed.

In this chain:
  kvm_guest_init() -&gt;
    kvm_use_magic_page() -&gt;
      fault_in_pages_readable() -&gt;
	 __get_user() -&gt;
	   __get_user_nocheck() -&gt;
	     barrier_nospec();

We have a code patching location at barrier_nospec() and
kvm_guest_init() is an init function. This whole chain gets inlined,
so when we free the init section (hence kvm_guest_init()), this code
goes away and hence should no longer be patched.

We seen this as userspace memory corruption when using a memory
checker while doing partition migration testing on powervm (this
starts the code patching post migration via
/sys/kernel/mobility/migration). In theory, it could also happen when
using /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/barrier_nospec.

<title>powerpc/uaccess: Enable get_user(u64, *p) on 32-bit</title>

[ Upstream commit f7a6947cd49b7ff4e03f1b4f7e7b223003d752ca ]

Currently if you build a 32-bit powerpc kernel and use get_user() to
load a u64 value it will fail to build with eg:

  kernel/rseq.o: In function `rseq_get_rseq_cs':
  kernel/rseq.c:123: undefined reference to `__get_user_bad'

This is hitting the check in __get_user_size() that makes sure the
size we're copying doesn't exceed the size of the destination:

  #define __get_user_size(x, ptr, size, retval)
  do {
  	retval = 0;
  	__chk_user_ptr(ptr);
  	if (size &gt; sizeof(x))
  		(x) = __get_user_bad();

Which doesn't immediately make sense because the size of the
destination is u64, but it's not really, because __get_user_check()
etc. internally create an unsigned long and copy into that:

  #define __get_user_check(x, ptr, size)
  ({
  	long __gu_err = -EFAULT;
  	unsigned long  __gu_val = 0;

The problem being that on 32-bit unsigned long is not big enough to
hold a u64. We can fix this with a trick from hpa in the x86 code, we
statically check the type of x and set the type of __gu_val to either
unsigned long or unsigned long long.

commit 1bd6a1c4b80a28d975287630644e6b47d0f977a5 upstream.

Crash memory ranges is an array of memory ranges of the crashing kernel
to be exported as a dump via /proc/vmcore file. The size of the array
is set based on INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS, which works alright in most cases
where memblock memory regions count is less than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS
value. But this count can grow beyond INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value since
commit 142b45a72e22 ("memblock: Add array resizing support").

On large memory systems with a few DLPAR operations, the memblock memory
regions count could be larger than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value. On such
systems, registering fadump results in crash or other system failures
like below:

[ Upstream commit a6b3964ad71a61bb7c61d80a60bea7d42187b2eb ]

A no-op form of ori (or immediate of 0 into r31 and the result stored
in r31) has been re-tasked as a speculation barrier. The instruction
only acts as a barrier on newer machines with appropriate firmware
support. On older CPUs it remains a harmless no-op.

Implement barrier_nospec using this instruction.

mpe: The semantics of the instruction are believed to be that it
prevents execution of subsequent instructions until preceding branches
have been fully resolved and are no longer executing speculatively.
There is no further documentation available at this time.

[ Upstream commit 1128bb7813a896bd608fb622eee3c26aaf33b473 ]

commit 87a156fb18fe1 ("Align hot loops of some string functions")
degraded the performance of string functions by adding useless
nops

A simple benchmark on an 8xx calling 100000x a memchr() that
matches the first byte runs in 41668 TB ticks before this patch
and in 35986 TB ticks after this patch. So this gives an
improvement of approx 10%

Another benchmark doing the same with a memchr() matching the 128th
byte runs in 1011365 TB ticks before this patch and 1005682 TB ticks
after this patch, so regardless on the number of loops, removing
those useless nops improves the test by 5683 TB ticks.

<title>KVM: PPC: Check if IOMMU page is contained in the pinned physical page</title>

commit 76fa4975f3ed12d15762bc979ca44078598ed8ee upstream.

A VM which has:
 - a DMA capable device passed through to it (eg. network card);
 - running a malicious kernel that ignores H_PUT_TCE failure;
 - capability of using IOMMU pages bigger that physical pages
can create an IOMMU mapping that exposes (for example) 16MB of
the host physical memory to the device when only 64K was allocated to the VM.

The remaining 16MB - 64K will be some other content of host memory, possibly
including pages of the VM, but also pages of host kernel memory, host
programs or other VMs.

The attacking VM does not control the location of the page it can map,
and is only allowed to map as many pages as it has pages of RAM.

We already have a check in drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_spapr_tce.c that
an IOMMU page is contained in the physical page so the PCI hardware won't
get access to unassigned host memory; however this check is missing in
the KVM fastpath (H_PUT_TCE accelerated code). We were lucky so far and
did not hit this yet as the very first time when the mapping happens
we do not have tbl::it_userspace allocated yet and fall back to
the userspace which in turn calls VFIO IOMMU driver, this fails and
the guest does not retry,

This stores the smallest preregistered page size in the preregistered
region descriptor and changes the mm_iommu_xxx API to check this against
the IOMMU page size.

This calculates maximum page size as a minimum of the natural region
alignment and compound page size. For the page shift this uses the shift
returned by find_linux_pte() which indicates how the page is mapped to
the current userspace - if the page is huge and this is not a zero, then
it is a leaf pte and the page is mapped within the range.

<title>powerpc/mm/slice: Fix hugepage allocation at hint address on 8xx</title>

commit aa0ab02ba992eb956934b21373e0138211486ddd upstream.

On the 8xx, the page size is set in the PMD entry and applies to
all pages of the page table pointed by the said PMD entry.

When an app has some regular pages allocated (e.g. see below) and tries
to mmap() a huge page at a hint address covered by the same PMD entry,
the kernel accepts the hint allthough the 8xx cannot handle different
page sizes in the same PMD entry.

10000000-10001000 r-xp 00000000 00:0f 2597 /root/malloc
10010000-10011000 rwxp 00000000 00:0f 2597 /root/malloc

mmap(0x10080000, 524288, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
     MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0) = 0x10080000

This results the app remaining forever in do_page_fault()/hugetlb_fault()
and when interrupting that app, we get the following warning:

[162985.363322] BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: -1

In order to fix this, this patch uses the address space "slices"
implemented for BOOK3S/64 and enhanced to support PPC32 by the
preceding patch.

This patch modifies the context.id on the 8xx to be in the range
[1:16] instead of [0:15] in order to identify context.id == 0 as
not initialised contexts as done on BOOK3S

This patch activates CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES when CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is
selected for the 8xx

Alltough we could in theory have as many slices as PMD entries, the
current slices implementation limits the number of low slices to 16.
This limitation is not preventing us to fix the initial issue allthough
it is suboptimal. It will be cured in a subsequent patch.

[162980.038754] BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: 1
[162985.363322] BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: -1

In order to fix this, this patch uses the address space "slices"
implemented for BOOK3S/64 and enhanced to support PPC32 by the
preceding patch.

This patch modifies the context.id on the 8xx to be in the range
[1:16] instead of [0:15] in order to identify context.id == 0 as
not initialised contexts as done on BOOK3S

This patch activates CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES when CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is
selected for the 8xx

Alltough we could in theory have as many slices as PMD entries, the
current slices implementation limits the number of low slices to 16.
This limitation is not preventing us to fix the initial issue allthough
it is suboptimal. It will be cured in a subsequent patch.

commit db3a528db41caaa6dfd4c64e9f5efb1c81a80467 upstream.

In preparation for the following patch which will fix an issue on
the 8xx by re-using the 'slices', this patch enhances the
'slices' implementation to support 32 bits CPUs.

On PPC32, the address space is limited to 4Gbytes, hence only the low
slices will be used.

The high slices use bitmaps. As bitmap functions are not prepared to
handle bitmaps of size 0, this patch ensures that bitmap functions
are called only when SLICE_NUM_HIGH is not nul.
