[ Upstream commit 768d70e19ba525debd571b36e6d0ab19956c63d7 ]

dlpar_configure_connector() has two problems in its handling of
ibm,configure-connector's return status:

1. When the status is -2 (busy, call again), we call
   ibm,configure-connector again immediately without checking whether
   to schedule, which can result in monopolizing the CPU.
2. Extended delay status (9900..9905) goes completely unhandled,
   causing the configuration to unnecessarily terminate.

Fix both of these issues by using rtas_busy_delay().

[ Upstream commit 910a0cb6d259736a0c86e795d4c2f42af8d0d775 ]

PPC47x_TLBE_SIZE isn't defined for 256k pages, leading to a build
break if 256k pages is selected.

So change the kconfig so that 256k pages can't be selected for 47x.

[ Upstream commit d85be8a49e733dcd23674aa6202870d54bf5600d ]

The placeholder for instruction selection should use the second
argument's operand, which is %1, not %0. This could generate incorrect
assembly code if the memory addressing of operand %0 is a different
form from that of operand %1.

Also remove the %Un placeholder because having %Un placeholders
for two operands which are based on the same local var (ptep) doesn't
make much sense. By the way, it doesn't change the current behaviour
because "&lt;&gt;" constraint is missing for the associated "=m".

I noticed that iounmap() of msgr_block_addr before return from
mpic_msgr_probe() in the error handling case is missing. So use
devm_ioremap() instead of just ioremap() when remapping the message
register block, so the mapping will be automatically released on
probe failure.

commit aa8e21c053d72b6639ea5a7f1d3a1d0209534c94 upstream.

Perf event attritube supports exclude_kernel flag to avoid
sampling/profiling in supervisor state (kernel). Based on this event
attr flag, Monitor Mode Control Register bit is set to freeze on
supervisor state. But sometimes (due to hardware limitation), Sampled
Instruction Address Register (SIAR) locks on to kernel address even
when freeze on supervisor is set. Patch here adds a check to drop
those samples.

[ Upstream commit 52719fce3f4c7a8ac9eaa191e8d75a697f9fbcbc ]

There are three ways pseries_suspend_begin() can be reached:

1. When "mem" is written to /sys/power/state:

kobj_attr_store()
-&gt; state_store()
  -&gt; pm_suspend()
    -&gt; suspend_devices_and_enter()
      -&gt; pseries_suspend_begin()

This never works because there is no way to supply a valid stream id
using this interface, and H_VASI_STATE is called with a stream id of
zero. So this call path is useless at best.

2. When a stream id is written to /sys/devices/system/power/hibernate.
pseries_suspend_begin() is polled directly from store_hibernate()
until the stream is in the "Suspending" state (i.e. the platform is
ready for the OS to suspend execution):

dev_attr_store()
-&gt; store_hibernate()
  -&gt; pseries_suspend_begin()

3. When a stream id is written to /sys/devices/system/power/hibernate
(continued). After #2, pseries_suspend_begin() is called once again
from the pm core:

dev_attr_store()
-&gt; store_hibernate()
  -&gt; pm_suspend()
    -&gt; suspend_devices_and_enter()
      -&gt; pseries_suspend_begin()

This is redundant because the VASI suspend state is already known to
be Suspending.

The begin() callback of platform_suspend_ops is optional, so we can
simply remove that assignment with no loss of function.

[ Upstream commit 78665179e569c7e1fe102fb6c21d0f5b6951f084 ]

On 8xx, we get the following features:

[    0.000000] cpu_features      = 0x0000000000000100
[    0.000000]   possible        = 0x0000000000000120
[    0.000000]   always          = 0x0000000000000000

This is not correct. As CONFIG_PPC_8xx is mutually exclusive with all
other configurations, the three lines should be equal.

The problem is due to CPU_FTRS_GENERIC_32 which is taken when
CONFIG_BOOK3S_32 is NOT selected. This CPU_FTRS_GENERIC_32 is
pointless because there is no generic configuration supporting
all 32 bits but book3s/32.

Remove this pointless generic features definition to unbreak the
calculation of 'possible' features and 'always' features.

Stable commit 452e2a83ea23 ("powerpc: Fix __clear_user() with KUAP
enabled") redefines __clear_user as inline function but does not remove
the export.

Gunter reports problems with the corenet64_smp_defconfig:

In file included from arch/powerpc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:10:0:
arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/kup-radix.h:11:29: error: redefinition of ‘allow_user_access’

 static inline void allow_user_access(void __user *to, const void __user *from,
		    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is because ppc_ksyms.c imports asm/book3s/64/kup-radix.h guarded by
CONFIG_PPC64, rather than CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64 which it should do.

Fix it.

<title>powerpc/8xx: Always fault when _PAGE_ACCESSED is not set</title>

commit 29daf869cbab69088fe1755d9dd224e99ba78b56 upstream.

The kernel expects pte_young() to work regardless of CONFIG_SWAP.

Make sure a minor fault is taken to set _PAGE_ACCESSED when it
is not already set, regardless of the selection of CONFIG_SWAP.

This adds at least 3 instructions to the TLB miss exception
handlers fast path. Following patch will reduce this overhead.

Also update the rotation instruction to the correct number of bits
to reflect all changes done to _PAGE_ACCESSED over time.

Fixes: d069cb4373fe ("powerpc/8xx: Don't touch ACCESSED when no SWAP.")
Fixes: 5f356497c384 ("powerpc/8xx: remove unused _PAGE_WRITETHRU")
Fixes: e0a8e0d90a9f ("powerpc/8xx: Handle PAGE_USER via APG bits")
Fixes: 5b2753fc3e8a ("powerpc/8xx: Implementation of PAGE_EXEC")
Fixes: a891c43b97d3 ("powerpc/8xx: Prepare handlers for _PAGE_HUGE for 512k pages.")
