[ Upstream commit 1ef1dd9c7ed27b080445e1576e8a05957e0e4dfc ]

If identical_pvr_fixup() is not inlined, there are two modpost warnings:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x54e8): Section mismatch in reference
from the function identical_pvr_fixup() to the function
.init.text:of_get_flat_dt_prop()
The function identical_pvr_fixup() references
the function __init of_get_flat_dt_prop().
This is often because identical_pvr_fixup lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of of_get_flat_dt_prop is wrong.

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x551c): Section mismatch in reference
from the function identical_pvr_fixup() to the function
.init.text:identify_cpu()
The function identical_pvr_fixup() references
the function __init identify_cpu().
This is often because identical_pvr_fixup lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of identify_cpu is wrong.

identical_pvr_fixup() calls two functions marked as __init and is only
called by a function marked as __init so it should be marked as __init
as well. At the same time, remove the inline keywork as it is not
necessary to inline this function. The compiler is still free to do so
if it feels it is worthwhile since commit 889b3c1245de ("compiler:
remove CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING entirely").

commit 4705e02498d6d5a7ab98dfee9595cd5e91db2017 upstream.

We need to update the user TM feature bits (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM and
PPC_FEATURE2_HTM) to mirror what we do with the kernel TM feature
bit.

At the moment, if firmware reports TM is not available we turn off
the kernel TM feature bit but leave the userspace ones on. Userspace
thinks it can execute TM instructions and it dies trying.

This (together with a QEMU patch) fixes PR KVM, which doesn't currently
support TM.

scan_features() updates cpu_user_features but not cpu_user_features2.

Amongst other things, cpu_user_features2 contains the user TM feature

<title>powerpc: scan_features() updates incorrect bits for REAL_LE</title>

<id>53f3e26b3d09ae40318877b74e0d6c1af767a07f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 6997e57d693b07289694239e52a10d2f02c3a46f upstream.

The REAL_LE feature entry in the ibm_pa_feature struct is missing an MMU
feature value, meaning all the remaining elements initialise the wrong
values.

This means instead of checking for byte 5, bit 0, we check for byte 0,
bit 0, and then we incorrectly set the CPU feature bit as well as MMU
feature bit 1 and CPU user feature bits 0 and 2 (5).

Checking byte 0 bit 0 (IBM numbering), means we're looking at the
"Memory Management Unit (MMU)" feature - ie. does the CPU have an MMU.
In practice that bit is set on all platforms which have the property.

This means we set CPU_FTR_REAL_LE always. In practice that seems not to
matter because all the modern cpus which have this property also
implement REAL_LE, and we've never needed to disable it.

We're also incorrectly setting MMU feature bit 1, which is:

  #define MMU_FTR_TYPE_8xx		0x00000002

Luckily the only place that looks for MMU_FTR_TYPE_8xx is in Book3E
code, which can't run on the same cpus as scan_features(). So this also
doesn't matter in practice.

Finally in the CPU user feature mask, we're setting bits 0 and 2. Bit 2
is not currently used, and bit 0 is:

  #define PPC_FEATURE_PPC_LE		0x00000001

Which says the CPU supports the old style "PPC Little Endian" mode.
Again this should be harmless in practice as no 64-bit CPUs implement
that mode.

Fix the code by adding the missing initialisation of the MMU feature.

Also add a comment marking CPU user feature bit 2 (0x4) as reserved. It
would be unsafe to start using it as old kernels incorrectly set it.

of_get_property() is used inside the loop, but then the reference to the
node is dropped before dereferencing the prop pointer, which could by then
point to junk if the node has been freed.

Instead use of_property_read_u32() to actually read the property
value before dropping the reference.

of_property_read_u32() requires at least one cell (u32) to be present,
which is stricter than the old logic which would happily dereference a
property of any size. However we believe all device trees in the wild
have at least one cell.

Skiboot may produce memory nodes with more than one cell, but that is
OK, of_property_read_u32() will return the first one.

The code to fetch the SLB size from the device tree wants to first look
for "slb-size" and then if that's not found "ibm,slb-size".

We can simplify the code by looking for the properties and then if we
find one of them we set mmu_slb_size.

We also change the function name from check_cpu_slb_size() to
init_mmu_slb_size() as the function doesn't check anything, it only
initialises mmu_slb_size.

     placement requirements (within 512MB from the start of the kernel
     image).  This required moving the FDT self reservation out of the
     memreserve processing

   - Idmap (1:1 mapping used for MMU on/off) handling clean-up

   - Removing flush_cache_all() - not safe on ARM unless the MMU is off.
     Last stages of CPU power down/up are handled by firmware already

   - "Alternatives" (run-time code patching) refactoring and support for
     immediate branch patching, GICv3 CPU interface access

   - User faults handling clean-up

  And some fixes:

   - Fix for VDSO building with broken ELF toolchains

   - Fix another case of init_mm.pgd usage for user mappings (during
     ASID roll-over broadcasting)

   - Fix for FPSIMD reloading after CPU hotplug

   - Fix for missing syscall trace exit

   - Workaround for .inst asm bug

   - Compat fix for switching the user tls tpidr_el0 register"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Mostly refactoring/clean-up:

   - CPU ops and PSCI (Power State Coordination Interface) refactoring
     following the merging of the arm64 ACPI support, together with
     handling of Trusted (secure) OS instances

   - Using fixmap for permanent FDT mapping, removing the initial dtb
     placement requirements (within 512MB from the start of the kernel
     image).  This required moving the FDT self reservation out of the
     memreserve processing

   - Idmap (1:1 mapping used for MMU on/off) handling clean-up

   - Removing flush_cache_all() - not safe on ARM unless the MMU is off.
