[ Upstream commit e7ca44ed3ba77fc26cf32650bb71584896662474 ]

Since commit 4388c9b3a6ee ("powerpc: Do not send system reset request
through the oops path"), pstore dmesg file is not updated when dump is
triggered from HMC. This commit modified system reset (sreset) handler
to invoke fadump or kdump (if configured), without pushing dmesg to
pstore. This leaves pstore to have old dmesg data which won't be much
of a help if kdump fails to capture the dump. This patch fixes that by
calling kmsg_dump() before heading to fadump ot kdump.

[ Upstream commit 0b66370c61fcf5fcc1d6901013e110284da6e2bb ]

Bare metal machine checks run an "early" handler in real mode before
running the main handler which reports the event.

The main handler runs exactly as a normal interrupt handler, after the
"windup" which sets registers back as they were at interrupt entry.
CFAR does not get restored by the windup code, so that will be wrong
when the handler is run.

Restore the CFAR to the saved value before running the late handler.

<title>powerpc/eeh: Clear stale EEH_DEV_NO_HANDLER flag</title>

[ Upstream commit aa06e3d60e245284d1e55497eb3108828092818d ]

The EEH_DEV_NO_HANDLER flag is used by the EEH system to prevent the
use of driver callbacks in drivers that have been bound part way
through the recovery process. This is necessary to prevent later stage
handlers from being called when the earlier stage handlers haven't,
which can be confusing for drivers.

However, the flag is set for all devices that are added after boot
time and only cleared at the end of the EEH recovery process. This
results in hot plugged devices erroneously having the flag set during
the first recovery after they are added (causing their driver's
handlers to be incorrectly ignored).

To remedy this, clear the flag at the beginning of recovery
processing. The flag is still cleared at the end of recovery
processing, although it is no longer really necessary.

Also clear the flag during eeh_handle_special_event(), for the same
reasons.

[ Upstream commit a6717c01ddc259f6f73364779df058e2c67309f8 ]

The LPAR migration implementation and userspace-initiated cpu hotplug
can interleave their executions like so:

1. Set cpu 7 offline via sysfs.

2. Begin a partition migration, whose implementation requires the OS
   to ensure all present cpus are online; cpu 7 is onlined:

     rtas_ibm_suspend_me -&gt; rtas_online_cpus_mask -&gt; cpu_up

   This sets cpu 7 online in all respects except for the cpu's
   corresponding struct device; dev-&gt;offline remains true.

3. Set cpu 7 online via sysfs. _cpu_up() determines that cpu 7 is
   already online and returns success. The driver core (device_online)
   sets dev-&gt;offline = false.

4. The migration completes and restores cpu 7 to offline state:

     rtas_ibm_suspend_me -&gt; rtas_offline_cpus_mask -&gt; cpu_down

This leaves cpu7 in a state where the driver core considers the cpu
device online, but in all other respects it is offline and
unused. Attempts to online the cpu via sysfs appear to succeed but the
driver core actually does not pass the request to the lower-level
cpuhp support code. This makes the cpu unusable until the cpu device
is manually set offline and then online again via sysfs.

Instead of directly calling cpu_up/cpu_down, the migration code should
use the higher-level device core APIs to maintain consistent state and
serialize operations.

<title>powerpc/tm: Fix restoring FP/VMX facility incorrectly on interrupts</title>

[ Upstream commit a8318c13e79badb92bc6640704a64cc022a6eb97 ]

When in userspace and MSR FP=0 the hardware FP state is unrelated to
the current process. This is extended for transactions where if tbegin
is run with FP=0, the hardware checkpoint FP state will also be
unrelated to the current process. Due to this, we need to ensure this
hardware checkpoint is updated with the correct state before we enable
FP for this process.

Unfortunately we get this wrong when returning to a process from a
hardware interrupt. A process that starts a transaction with FP=0 can
take an interrupt. When the kernel returns back to that process, we
change to FP=1 but with hardware checkpoint FP state not updated. If
this transaction is then rolled back, the FP registers now contain the
wrong state.

The process looks like this:
   Userspace:                      Kernel

               Start userspace
                with MSR FP=0 TM=1
                  &lt; -----
   ...
   tbegin
   bne
               Hardware interrupt
                   ---- &gt;
                                    &lt;do_IRQ...&gt;
                                    ....
                                    ret_from_except
                                      restore_math()
				        /* sees FP=0 */
                                        restore_fp()
                                          tm_active_with_fp()
					    /* sees FP=1 (Incorrect) */
                                          load_fp_state()
                                        FP = 0 -&gt; 1
                  &lt; -----
               Return to userspace
                 with MSR TM=1 FP=1
                 with junk in the FP TM checkpoint
   TM rollback
   reads FP junk

When returning from the hardware exception, tm_active_with_fp() is
incorrectly making restore_fp() call load_fp_state() which is setting
FP=1.

The fix is to remove tm_active_with_fp().

tm_active_with_fp() is attempting to handle the case where FP state
has been changed inside a transaction. In this case the checkpointed
and transactional FP state is different and hence we must restore the
FP state (ie. we can't do lazy FP restore inside a transaction that's
used FP). It's safe to remove tm_active_with_fp() as this case is
handled by restore_tm_state(). restore_tm_state() detects if FP has
been using inside a transaction and will set load_fp and call
restore_math() to ensure the FP state (checkpoint and transaction) is
restored.

This is a data integrity problem for the current process as the FP
registers are corrupted. It's also a security problem as the FP
registers from one process may be leaked to another.

Similarly for VMX.

A simple testcase to replicate this will be posted to
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-poison.c

This fixes CVE-2019-15031.

[ Upstream commit 5c784c8414fba11b62e12439f11e109fb5751f38 ]

Currently msr_tm_active() is a wrapper around MSR_TM_ACTIVE() if
CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is set, or it is just a function that
returns false if CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is not set.

This function is not necessary, since MSR_TM_ACTIVE() just do the same and
could be used, removing the dualism and simplifying the code.

This patchset remove every instance of msr_tm_active() and replaced it
by MSR_TM_ACTIVE().

[ Upstream commit 5c784c8414fba11b62e12439f11e109fb5751f38 ]

Currently msr_tm_active() is a wrapper around MSR_TM_ACTIVE() if
CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is set, or it is just a function that
returns false if CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM is not set.

This function is not necessary, since MSR_TM_ACTIVE() just do the same and
could be used, removing the dualism and simplifying the code.

This patchset remove every instance of msr_tm_active() and replaced it
by MSR_TM_ACTIVE().

[ Upstream commit fd0944baad806dfb4c777124ec712c55b714ff51 ]

When the 'regs' field was added to struct kvm_vcpu_arch, the code
was changed to use several of the fields inside regs (e.g., gpr, lr,
etc.) but not the ccr field, because the ccr field in struct pt_regs
is 64 bits on 64-bit platforms, but the cr field in kvm_vcpu_arch is
only 32 bits.  This changes the code to use the regs.ccr field
instead of cr, and changes the assembly code on 64-bit platforms to
use 64-bit loads and stores instead of 32-bit ones.

<title>powerpc/tm: Fix FP/VMX unavailable exceptions inside a transaction</title>

<id>47a0f70d7d9ac3d6b1a96b312d07bc67af3834e9</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8205d5d98ef7f155de211f5e2eb6ca03d95a5a60 upstream.

When we take an FP unavailable exception in a transaction we have to
account for the hardware FP TM checkpointed registers being
incorrect. In this case for this process we know the current and
checkpointed FP registers must be the same (since FP wasn't used
inside the transaction) hence in the thread_struct we copy the current
FP registers to the checkpointed ones.

This copy is done in tm_reclaim_thread(). We use thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr
to determine if FP was on when in userspace. thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr
represents the state of the MSR when exiting userspace. This is setup
by check_if_tm_restore_required().

Unfortunatley there is an optimisation in giveup_all() which returns
early if tsk-&gt;thread.regs-&gt;msr (via local variable `usermsr`) has
FP=VEC=VSX=SPE=0. This optimisation means that
check_if_tm_restore_required() is not called and hence
thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr is not updated and will contain an old value.

This can happen if due to load_fp=255 we start a userspace process
with MSR FP=1 and then we are context switched out. In this case
thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr will contain FP=1. If that same process is then
context switched in and load_fp overflows, MSR will have FP=0. If that
process now enters a transaction and does an FP instruction, the FP
unavailable will not update thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr (the bug) and MSR
FP=1 will be retained in thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr.  tm_reclaim_thread()
will then not perform the required memcpy and the checkpointed FP regs
in the thread struct will contain the wrong values.

The code path for this happening is:

       Userspace:                      Kernel
                   Start userspace
                    with MSR FP/VEC/VSX/SPE=0 TM=1
                      &lt; -----
       ...
       tbegin
       bne
       fp instruction
                   FP unavailable
                       ---- &gt;
                                        fp_unavailable_tm()
					  tm_reclaim_current()
					    tm_reclaim_thread()
					      giveup_all()
					        return early since FP/VMX/VSX=0
						/* ckpt MSR not updated (Incorrect) */
					      tm_reclaim()
					        /* thread_struct ckpt FP regs contain junk (OK) */
                                              /* Sees ckpt MSR FP=1 (Incorrect) */
					      no memcpy() performed
					        /* thread_struct ckpt FP regs not fixed (Incorrect) */
					  tm_recheckpoint()
					     /* Put junk in hardware checkpoint FP regs */
                                         ....
                      &lt; -----
                   Return to userspace
                     with MSR TM=1 FP=1
                     with junk in the FP TM checkpoint
       TM rollback
       reads FP junk

This is a data integrity problem for the current process as the FP
registers are corrupted. It's also a security problem as the FP
registers from one process may be leaked to another.

This patch moves up check_if_tm_restore_required() in giveup_all() to
ensure thread-&gt;ckpt_regs.msr is updated correctly.

A simple testcase to replicate this will be posted to
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-poison.c

Similarly for VMX.

This fixes CVE-2019-15030.

<title>powerpc: Allow flush_(inval_)dcache_range to work across ranges &gt;4GB</title>

The upstream commit:
22e9c88d486a ("powerpc/64: reuse PPC32 static inline flush_dcache_range()")
has a similar effect, but since it is a rewrite of the assembler to C, is
too invasive for stable. This patch is a minimal fix to address the issue in
assembler.

This patch applies cleanly to v5.2, v4.19 &amp; v4.14.

When calling flush_(inval_)dcache_range with a size &gt;4GB, we were masking
off the upper 32 bits, so we would incorrectly flush a range smaller
than intended.

This patch replaces the 32 bit shifts with 64 bit ones, so that
the full size is accounted for.
