[ Upstream commit 1dff3064c764b5a51c367b949b341d2e38972bec ]
On P9 DD2.2 due to a CPU defect some TM instructions need to be emulated by
KVM. This is handled at first by the hardware raising a softpatch interrupt
when certain TM instructions that need KVM assistance are executed in the
guest. Althought some TM instructions per Power ISA are invalid forms they
can raise a softpatch interrupt too. For instance, 'tresume.' instruction
as defined in the ISA must have bit 31 set (1), but an instruction that
matches 'tresume.' PO and XO opcode fields but has bit 31 not set (0), like
0x7cfe9ddc, also raises a softpatch interrupt. Similarly for 'treclaim.'
and 'trechkpt.' instructions with bit 31 = 0, i.e. 0x7c00075c and
0x7c0007dc, respectively. Hence, if a code like the following is executed
in the guest it will raise a softpatch interrupt just like a 'tresume.'
when the TM facility is enabled ('tabort. 0' in the example is used only
to enable the TM facility):
int main() { asm("tabort. 0; .long 0x7cfe9ddc;"); }
Currently in such a case KVM throws a complete trace like:

and then treats the executed instruction as a 'nop'.
However the POWER9 User's Manual, in section "4.6.10 Book II Invalid
Forms", informs that for TM instructions bit 31 is in fact ignored, thus
for the TM-related invalid forms ignoring bit 31 and handling them like the
valid forms is an acceptable way to handle them. POWER8 behaves the same
way too.
This commit changes the handling of the cases here described by treating
the TM-related invalid forms that can generate a softpatch interrupt
just like their valid forms (w/ bit 31 = 1) instead of as a 'nop' and by
gently reporting any other unrecognized case to the host and treating it as
illegal instruction instead of throwing a trace and treating it as a 'nop'.

If the hypervisor doesn't support hugepages, the kernel ends up allocating a large

setting the max memblock limit to ppc64_rma_size with radix translation
which resulted in boot failure as shown below.

This was because the kernel was checking for the radix feature before we enable the
feature via mmu_features. This resulted in the kernel using hash restrictions on
radix.
Rework the early init code such that the kernel boot with memblock restrictions
as imposed by hash. At that point, the kernel still hasn't finalized the
translation the kernel will end up using.
We have three different ways of detecting radix.
1. dt_cpu_ftrs_scan -> used only in case of PowerNV
2. ibm,pa-features -> Used when we don't use cpu_dt_ftr_scan
3. CAS -> Where we negotiate with hypervisor about the supported translation.
We look at 1 or 2 early in the boot and after that, we look at the CAS vector to
finalize the translation the kernel will use. We also support a kernel command
line option (disable_radix) to switch to hash.
Update the memblock limit after mmu_early_init_devtree() if the kernel is going
to use radix translation. This forces some of the memblock allocations we do before
mmu_early_init_devtree() to be within the RMA limit.

commit fdfe7cbd58806522e799e2a50a15aee7f2cbb7b6 upstream.
The 'flags' field of 'struct mmu_notifier_range' is used to indicate
whether invalidate_range_{start,end}() are permitted to block. In the
case of kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(), this field is not
forwarded on to the architecture-specific implementation of
kvm_unmap_hva_range() and therefore the backend cannot sensibly decide
whether or not to block.
Add an extra 'flags' parameter to kvm_unmap_hva_range() so that
architectures are aware as to whether or not they are permitted to block.

commit 0c83b277ada72b585e6a3e52b067669df15bcedb upstream.
Recently random.h started including percpu.h (see commit
f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and
activity")), which broke corenet64_smp_defconfig:
In file included from /linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/paca.h:18,

/linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu.h:139:22: error: unknown type name 'next_tlbcam_idx'
139 | DECLARE_PER_CPU(int, next_tlbcam_idx);
This is due to a circular header dependency:
asm/mmu.h includes asm/percpu.h, which includes asm/paca.h, which
includes asm/mmu.h
Which means DECLARE_PER_CPU() isn't defined when mmu.h needs it.
We can fix it by moving the include of paca.h below the include of
asm-generic/percpu.h.
This moves the include of paca.h out of the #ifdef __powerpc64__, but
that is OK because paca.h is almost entirely inside #ifdef
CONFIG_PPC64 anyway.
It also moves the include of paca.h out of the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP,
which could possibly break something, but seems to have no ill
effects.

Currently is_sier_available() is part of core-book3s.c, which is added
to build based on CONFIG_PPC_PERF_CTRS.
A config with CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS and without CONFIG_PPC_PERF_CTRS will
have a build break because of missing is_sier_available().
In practice it only breaks when CONFIG_FSL_EMB_PERF_EVENT=n because
that also guards the usage of is_sier_available(). That only happens
with CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E_64=y and CONFIG_FSL_SOC_BOOKE=n.
Patch adds is_sier_available() in asm/perf_event.h to fix the build
break for configs missing CONFIG_PPC_PERF_CTRS.

[ Upstream commit ec2fc2a9e9bbad9023aab65bc472ce7a3ca8608f ]
Partition suspension, used for hibernation and migration, requires
that the OS place all but one of the LPAR's processor threads into one
of two states prior to calling the ibm,suspend-me RTAS function:
* the architected offline state (via RTAS stop-self); or
* the H_JOIN hcall, which does not return until the partition
resumes execution
Using H_CEDE as the offline mode, introduced by
commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU into
an appropriate offline state"), means that any threads which are
offline from Linux's point of view must be moved to one of those two
states before a partition suspension can proceed.
This was eventually addressed in commit 120496ac2d2d ("powerpc: Bring
all threads online prior to migration/hibernation"), which added code
to temporarily bring up any offline processor threads so they can call
H_JOIN. Conceptually this is fine, but the implementation has had
multiple races with cpu hotplug operations initiated from user
space[1][2][3], the error handling is fragile, and it generates
user-visible cpu hotplug events which is a lot of noise for a platform
feature that's supposed to minimize disruption to workloads.
With commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU
into an appropriate offline state") reverted, this code becomes
unnecessary, so remove it. Since any offline CPUs now are truly
offline from the platform's point of view, it is no longer necessary
to bring up CPUs only to have them call H_JOIN and then go offline
again upon resuming. Only active threads are required to call H_JOIN;
stopped threads can be left alone.

Which was unexpected. The warning is checking the thread.regs->msr
value of the task we are switching from:
usermsr = tsk->thread.regs->msr;
...
WARN_ON((usermsr & MSR_VSX) && !((usermsr & MSR_FP) && (usermsr & MSR_VEC)));
ie. if MSR_VSX is set then both of MSR_FP and MSR_VEC are also set.
Dumping tsk->thread.regs->msr we see that it's: 0x1db60000
Which is not a normal looking MSR, in fact the only valid bit is
MSR_VSX, all the other bits are reserved in the current definition of
the MSR.
We can see from the oops that it was swapper/0 that we were switching
from when we hit the warning, ie. init_task. So its thread.regs points
to the base (high addresses) in init_stack.
Dumping the content of init_task->thread.regs, with the members of
pt_regs annotated (the 16 bytes larger version), we see:

This looks suspiciously like stack frames, not a pt_regs. If we look
closely we can see return addresses from the stack trace above,
c000000002004820 (start_kernel) and c00000000000c49c (start_here_common).
init_task->thread.regs is setup at build time in processor.h:
#define INIT_THREAD { \
.ksp = INIT_SP, \
.regs = (struct pt_regs *)INIT_SP - 1, /* XXX bogus, I think */ \
The early boot code where we setup the initial stack is:
LOAD_REG_ADDR(r3,init_thread_union)
/* set up a stack pointer */
LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r1,THREAD_SIZE)
add r1,r3,r1
li r0,0
stdu r0,-STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD(r1)
Which creates a stack frame of size 112 bytes (STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD).
Which is far too small to contain a pt_regs.
So the result is init_task->thread.regs is pointing at some stack
frames on the init stack, not at a pt_regs.
We have gotten away with this for so long because with pt_regs at its
current size the MSR happens to point into the first frame, at a
location that is not written to by the early asm. With the 16 byte
expansion the MSR falls into the second frame, which is used by the
compiler, and collides with a saved register that tends to be
non-zero.
As far as I can see this has been wrong since the original merge of
64-bit ppc support, back in 2002.
Conceptually swapper should have no regs, it never entered from
userspace, and in fact that's what we do on 32-bit. It's also
presumably what the "bogus" comment is referring to.
So I think the right fix is to just not-initialise regs at all. I'm
slightly worried this will break some code that isn't prepared for a
NULL regs, but we'll have to see.
Remove the comment in head_64.S which refers to us setting up the
regs (even though we never did), and is otherwise not really accurate
any more.
