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:

<title>powerpc/mm/hash: Add missing isync prior to kernel stack SLB switch</title>

commit 91d06971881f71d945910de128658038513d1b24 upstream.

Currently we do not have an isync, or any other context synchronizing
instruction prior to the slbie/slbmte in _switch() that updates the
SLB entry for the kernel stack.

However that is not correct as outlined in the ISA.

From Power ISA Version 3.0B, Book III, Chapter 11, page 1133:

  "Changing the contents of ... the contents of SLB entries ... can
   have the side effect of altering the context in which data
   addresses and instruction addresses are interpreted, and in which
   instructions are executed and data accesses are performed.
   ...
   These side effects need not occur in program order, and therefore
   may require explicit synchronization by software.
   ...
   The synchronizing instruction before the context-altering
   instruction ensures that all instructions up to and including that
   synchronizing instruction are fetched and executed in the context
   that existed before the alteration."

And page 1136:

  "For data accesses, the context synchronizing instruction before the
   slbie, slbieg, slbia, slbmte, tlbie, or tlbiel instruction ensures
   that all preceding instructions that access data storage have
   completed to a point at which they have reported all exceptions
   they will cause."

We're not aware of any bugs caused by this, but it should be fixed
regardless.

Add the missing isync when updating kernel stack SLB entry.

<title>powerpc/ptrace: Fix setting 512B aligned breakpoints with PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG</title>

commit 4f7c06e26ec9cf7fe9f0c54dc90079b6a4f4b2c3 upstream.

In commit e2a800beaca1 ("powerpc/hw_brk: Fix off by one error when
validating DAWR region end") we fixed setting the DAWR end point to
its max value via PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG. Unfortunately we broke
PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG when setting a 512 byte aligned breakpoint.

PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG currently sets the length of the breakpoint to
zero (memset() in hw_breakpoint_init()). This worked with
arch_validate_hwbkpt_settings() before the above patch was applied but
is now broken if the breakpoint is 512byte aligned.

This sets the length of the breakpoint to 8 bytes when using
PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG.

Back when we first introduced the DAWR, in commit 4ae7ebe9522a
("powerpc: Change hardware breakpoint to allow longer ranges"), we
screwed up the constraint making it a 1024 byte boundary rather than a
512. This makes the check overly permissive. Fortunately GDB is the
only real user and it always did they right thing, so we never
noticed.

This fixes the constraint to 512 bytes.

commit 722cde76d68e8cc4f3de42e71c82fd40dea4f7b9 upstream.

Unregister fadump on kexec down path otherwise the fadump registration
in new kexec-ed kernel complains that fadump is already registered.
This makes new kernel to continue using fadump registered by previous
kernel which may lead to invalid vmcore generation. Hence this patch
fixes this issue by un-registering fadump in fadump_cleanup() which is
called during kexec path so that new kernel can register fadump with
new valid values.

commit faf37c44a105f3608115785f17cbbf3500f8bc71 upstream.

Clear the PCR (Processor Compatibility Register) on boot to ensure we
are not running in a compatibility mode.

We've seen this cause problems when a crash (and kdump) occurs while
running compat mode guests. The kdump kernel then runs with the PCR
set and causes problems. The symptom in the kdump kernel (also seen in
petitboot after fast-reboot) is early userspace programs taking
sigills on newer instructions (seen in libc).

commit 13a83eac373c49c0a081cbcd137e79210fe78acd upstream.

On boot we save the configuration space of PCIe bridges. We do this so
when we get an EEH event and everything gets reset that we can restore
them.

Unfortunately we save this state before we've enabled the MMIO space
on the bridges. Hence if we have to reset the bridge when we come back
MMIO is not enabled and we end up taking an PE freeze when the driver
starts accessing again.

This patch forces the memory/MMIO and bus mastering on when restoring
bridges on EEH. Ideally we'd do this correctly by saving the
configuration space writes later, but that will have to come later in
a larger EEH rewrite. For now we have this simple fix.

The original bug can be triggered on a boston machine by doing:
  echo 0x8000000000000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/PCI0001/err_injct_outbound
On boston, this PHB has a PCIe switch on it.  Without this patch,
you'll see two EEH events, 1 expected and 1 the failure we are fixing
here. The second EEH event causes the anything under the PHB to
disappear (i.e. the i40e eth).

With this patch, only 1 EEH event occurs and devices properly recover.

Fixes: 652defed4875 ("powerpc/eeh: Check PCIe link after reset")

commit 13a83eac373c49c0a081cbcd137e79210fe78acd upstream.

On boot we save the configuration space of PCIe bridges. We do this so
when we get an EEH event and everything gets reset that we can restore
them.

Unfortunately we save this state before we've enabled the MMIO space
on the bridges. Hence if we have to reset the bridge when we come back
MMIO is not enabled and we end up taking an PE freeze when the driver
starts accessing again.

This patch forces the memory/MMIO and bus mastering on when restoring
bridges on EEH. Ideally we'd do this correctly by saving the
configuration space writes later, but that will have to come later in
a larger EEH rewrite. For now we have this simple fix.

The original bug can be triggered on a boston machine by doing:
  echo 0x8000000000000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/PCI0001/err_injct_outbound
On boston, this PHB has a PCIe switch on it.  Without this patch,
you'll see two EEH events, 1 expected and 1 the failure we are fixing
here. The second EEH event causes the anything under the PHB to
disappear (i.e. the i40e eth).

With this patch, only 1 EEH event occurs and devices properly recover.

commit f0295e047fcf52ccb42561fb7de6942f5201b676 upstream.

The current EEH callbacks can race with a driver unbind. This can
result in a backtraces like this:

The first part is an EEH (on boot), the second half is the resulting
crash. nvme probe starts the nvme_reset_work() worker thread. This
worker thread starts touching the device which see a device error
(EEH) and hence queues up an event in the powerpc EEH worker
thread. nvme_reset_work() then continues and runs
nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work() which results in unbinding the driver
from the device and hence releases all resources. At the same time,
the EEH worker thread starts doing the EEH .error_detected() driver
callback, which no longer works since the resources have been freed.

This fixes the problem in the same way the generic PCIe AER code (in
drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aerdrv_core.c) does. It makes the EEH code hold
the device_lock() while performing the driver EEH callbacks and
associated code. This ensures either the callbacks are no longer
register, or if they are registered the driver will not be removed
from underneath us.

This has been broken forever. The EEH call backs were first introduced
in 2005 (in 77bd7415610) but it's not clear if a lock was needed back
then.

<title>powerpc/64: Don't trace irqs-off at interrupt return to soft-disabled context</title>

commit acb1feab320e38588fccc568e3767761f494976f upstream.

When an interrupt is returning to a soft-disabled context (which can
happen for non-maskable interrupts or synchronous interrupts), it goes
through the motions of soft-disabling again, including calling
TRACE_DISABLE_INTS (i.e., trace_hardirqs_off()).

This is not necessary, because we must already be soft-disabled in the
interrupt context, it also may be causing crashes in the irq tracing
code to re-enter as an nmi. Replace it with a warning to ensure that
soft-interrupts are still disabled.

commit 349524bc0da698ec77f2057cf4a4948eb6349265 upstream.

This causes warnings from cpufreq mutex code. This is also rather
unnecessary and ineffective. If we really want to prevent concurrent
unplug, we could take the unplug read lock but I don't see this being
critical.
