[ Upstream commit ec613a57fa1d57381f890c3166175fe68cf43f12 ]

ISA v3.1 removes transactional memory and hence it should not be present
in cpu_features or cpu_user_features2. Remove CPU_FTR_TM_COMP from
CPU_FTRS_POWER10. Remove PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_COMP and
PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC_COMP from COMMON_USER2_POWER10.

<title>powerpc/64s/radix: Fix mm_cpumask trimming race vs kthread_use_mm</title>

[ Upstream commit a665eec0a22e11cdde708c1c256a465ebe768047 ]

Commit 0cef77c7798a7 ("powerpc/64s/radix: flush remote CPUs out of
single-threaded mm_cpumask") added a mechanism to trim the mm_cpumask of
a process under certain conditions. One of the assumptions is that
mm_users would not be incremented via a reference outside the process
context with mmget_not_zero() then go on to kthread_use_mm() via that
reference.

That invariant was broken by io_uring code (see previous sparc64 fix),
but I'll point Fixes: to the original powerpc commit because we are
changing that assumption going forward, so this will make backports
match up.

Fix this by no longer relying on that assumption, but by having each CPU
check the mm is not being used, and clearing their own bit from the mask
only if it hasn't been switched-to by the time the IPI is processed.

This relies on commit 38cf307c1f20 ("mm: fix kthread_use_mm() vs TLB
invalidate") and ARCH_WANT_IRQS_OFF_ACTIVATE_MM to disable irqs over mm
switch sequences.

[ Upstream commit 66943005cc41f48e4d05614e8f76c0ca1812f0fd ]

According to the MPC750 Users Manual, the SITV value in Thermal
Management Register 3 is 13 bits long. The present code calculates the
SITV value as 60 * 500 cycles. This would overflow to give 10 us on
a 500 MHz CPU rather than the intended 60 us. (But according to the
Microprocessor Datasheet, there is also a factor of 266 that has to be
applied to this value on certain parts i.e. speed sort above 266 MHz.)
Always use the maximum cycle count, as recommended by the Datasheet.

[ Upstream commit 7746406baa3bc9e23fdd7b7da2f04d86e25ab837 ]

With commit: 0034d395f89d ("powerpc/mm/hash64: Map all the kernel
regions in the same 0xc range"), we now split the 64TB address range
into 4 contexts each of 16TB. That implies we can do only 16TB linear
mapping.

On some systems, eg. Power9, memory attached to nodes &gt; 0 will appear
above 16TB in the linear mapping. This resulted in kernel crash when
we boot such systems in hash translation mode with 4K PAGE_SIZE.

This patch updates the kernel mapping such that we now start supporting upto
61TB of memory with 4K. The kernel mapping now looks like below 4K PAGE_SIZE
and hash translation.

    vmalloc start     = 0xc0003d0000000000
    IO start          = 0xc0003e0000000000
    vmemmap start     = 0xc0003f0000000000

Our MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS for 4K is still 64TB even though we can only map 61TB.
We prevent bolt mapping anything outside 61TB range by checking against
H_VMALLOC_START.

On p10 predecessors, watchpoint with quadword access is compared at
quadword length. If the watch range is doubleword or less than that
in a first half of quadword aligned 16 bytes, and if there is any
unaligned quadword access which will access only the 2nd half, the
handler should consider it as extraneous and emulate/single-step it
before continuing.

[ Upstream commit eae9eec476d13fad9af6da1f44a054ee02b7b161 ]

POWER secure guests (i.e., guests which use the Protected Execution
Facility) need to use SWIOTLB to be able to do I/O with the
hypervisor, but they don't need the SWIOTLB memory to be in low
addresses since the hypervisor doesn't have any addressing limitation.

This solves a SWIOTLB initialization problem we are seeing in secure
guests with 128 GB of RAM: they are configured with 4 GB of
crashkernel reserved memory, which leaves no space for SWIOTLB in low
addresses.

To do this, we use mostly the same code as swiotlb_init(), but
allocate the buffer using memblock_alloc() instead of
memblock_alloc_low().

[ Upstream commit eae9eec476d13fad9af6da1f44a054ee02b7b161 ]

POWER secure guests (i.e., guests which use the Protected Execution
Facility) need to use SWIOTLB to be able to do I/O with the
hypervisor, but they don't need the SWIOTLB memory to be in low
addresses since the hypervisor doesn't have any addressing limitation.

This solves a SWIOTLB initialization problem we are seeing in secure
guests with 128 GB of RAM: they are configured with 4 GB of
crashkernel reserved memory, which leaves no space for SWIOTLB in low
addresses.

To do this, we use mostly the same code as swiotlb_init(), but
allocate the buffer using memblock_alloc() instead of
memblock_alloc_low().

[ Upstream commit e5e179aa3a39c818db8fbc2dce8d2cd24adaf657 ]

At memory hot-remove time we can retrieve an LMB's nid from its
corresponding memory_block.  There is no need to store the nid
in multiple locations.

Note that lmb_to_memblock() uses find_memory_block() to get the
corresponding memory_block.  As find_memory_block() runs in sub-linear
time this approach is negligibly slower than what we do at present.

In exchange for this lookup at hot-remove time we no longer need to
call memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() during drmem_init() for each LMB.
On powerpc, memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() is a linear search, so this
spares us an O(n^2) initialization during boot.

On systems with many LMBs that initialization overhead is palpable and
disruptive.  For example, on a box with 249854 LMBs we're seeing
drmem_init() take upwards of 30 seconds to complete:

<title>powerpc/pseries: explicitly reschedule during drmem_lmb list traversal</title>

[ Upstream commit 9d6792ffe140240ae54c881cc4183f9acc24b4df ]

The drmem lmb list can have hundreds of thousands of entries, and
unfortunately lookups take the form of linear searches. As long as
this is the case, traversals have the potential to monopolize the CPU
and provoke lockup reports, workqueue stalls, and the like unless
they explicitly yield.

Rather than placing cond_resched() calls within various
for_each_drmem_lmb() loop blocks in the code, put it in the iteration
expression of the loop macro itself so users can't omit it.

Introduce a drmem_lmb_next() iteration helper function which calls
cond_resched() at a regular interval during array traversal. Each
iteration of the loop in DLPAR code paths can involve around ten RTAS
calls which can each take up to 250us, so this ensures the check is
performed at worst every few milliseconds.
