KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Exit KVM on failed mapping

2018-03-24T09:58:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit bd9166ffe624000140fc6b606b256df01fc0d060 ]

At the moment kvmppc_mmu_map_page() returns -1 if
mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() fails for any reason so the page fault handler
resumes the guest and it faults on the same address again.

This adds distinction to kvmppc_mmu_map_page() to return -EIO if
mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() failed for a reason other than full pteg.
At the moment only pSeries_lpar_hpte_insert() returns -2 if
plpar_pte_enter() failed with a code other than H_PTEG_FULL.
Other mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() instances can only fail with
-1 "full pteg".

With this change, if PR KVM fails to update HPT, it can signal
the userspace about this instead of returning to guest and having
the very same page fault over and over again.

powerpc: Avoid taking a data miss on every userspace instruction miss

2018-03-22T08:23:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit a7a9dcd882a67b68568868b988289fce5ffd8419 ]

Early on in do_page_fault() we call store_updates_sp(), regardless of
the type of exception. For an instruction miss this doesn't make
sense, because we only use this information to detect if a data miss
is the result of a stack expansion instruction or not.

Worse still, it results in a data miss within every userspace
instruction miss handler, because we try and load the very instruction
we are about to install a pte for!

A simple exec microbenchmark runs 6% faster on POWER8 with this fix:

 #include 
 #include 
 #include 

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	unsigned long left = atol(argv[1]);
	char leftstr[16];

	if (left-- == 0)
		return 0;

	sprintf(leftstr, "%ld", left);
	execlp(argv[0], argv[0], leftstr, NULL);
	perror("exec failed\n");

	return 0;
}

Pass the number of iterations on the command line (eg 10000) and time
how long it takes to execute.

powerpc/64s: Fix RFI flush dependency on HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR

2018-02-28T09:17:21+00:00

The backport of commit aa8a5e0062ac ("powerpc/64s: Add support for RFI
flush of L1-D cache"), incorrectly placed the new RFI flush code
inside an existing #ifdef CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR block.

This has the obvious effect of requiring HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR to be
enabled in order for RFI flush to be enabled, which is a bug.

Fix it by moving the #endif up to where it belongs.

powerpc/perf: Fix oops when grouping different pmu events

2018-02-25T10:03:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5aa04b3eb6fca63d2e9827be656dcadc26d54e11 ]

When user tries to group imc (In-Memory Collections) event with
normal event, (sometime) kernel crashes with following log:

    Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
    [link register   ] c00000000010ce88 power_check_constraints+0x128/0x980
    ...
    c00000000010e238 power_pmu_event_init+0x268/0x6f0
    c0000000002dc60c perf_try_init_event+0xdc/0x1a0
    c0000000002dce88 perf_event_alloc+0x7b8/0xac0
    c0000000002e92e0 SyS_perf_event_open+0x530/0xda0
    c00000000000b004 system_call+0x38/0xe0

'event_base' field of 'struct hw_perf_event' is used as flags for
normal hw events and used as memory address for imc events. While
grouping these two types of events, collect_events() tries to
interpret imc 'event_base' as a flag, which causes a corruption
resulting in a crash.

Consider only those events which belongs to 'perf_hw_context' in
collect_events().

powerpc/pseries: include linux/types.h in asm/hvcall.h

Commit 6e032b350cd1 ("powerpc/powernv: Check device-tree for RFI flush
settings") uses u64 in asm/hvcall.h without including linux/types.h

This breaks hvcall.h users that do not include the header themselves.

powerpc/64s: Allow control of RFI flush via debugfs

commit 236003e6b5443c45c18e613d2b0d776a9f87540e upstream.

Expose the state of the RFI flush (enabled/disabled) via debugfs, and
allow it to be enabled/disabled at runtime.

eg: $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
    1
    $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
    $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush

powerpc/64s: Wire up cpu_show_meltdown()

2018-02-16T19:09:36+00:00

commit fd6e440f20b1a4304553775fc55938848ff617c9 upstream.

The recent commit 87590ce6e373 ("sysfs/cpu: Add vulnerability folder")
added a generic folder and set of files for reporting information on
CPU vulnerabilities. One of those was for meltdown:

  /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown

This commit wires up that file for 64-bit Book3S powerpc.

For now we default to "Vulnerable" unless the RFI flush is enabled.
That may not actually be true on all hardware, further patches will
refine the reporting based on the CPU/platform etc. But for now we
default to being pessimists.

powerpc/64s: Support disabling RFI flush with no_rfi_flush and nopti

2018-02-16T19:09:35+00:00

commit bc9c9304a45480797e13a8e1df96ffcf44fb62fe upstream.

Because there may be some performance overhead of the RFI flush, add
kernel command line options to disable it.

We add a sensibly named 'no_rfi_flush' option, but we also hijack the
x86 option 'nopti'. The RFI flush is not the same as KPTI, but if we
see 'nopti' we can guess that the user is trying to avoid any overhead
of Meltdown mitigations, and it means we don't have to educate every
one about a different command line option.
