[ Upstream commit 894c9ef9780c5cf2f143415e867ee39a33ecb75d ]

Configuring an instance's parallel mask without any online CPUs...

  echo 2 &gt; /sys/kernel/pcrypt/pencrypt/parallel_cpumask
  echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

...makes tcrypt mode=215 crash like this:

  divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
  CPU: 4 PID: 283 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 5.4.0-rc8-padata-doc-v2+ #2
  Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS ?-20191013_105130-anatol 04/01/2014

   ...

cpumask_weight() in padata_cpu_hash() returns 0 because the mask has no
CPUs.  The problem is __padata_remove_cpu() checks for valid masks too
early and so doesn't mark the instance PADATA_INVALID as expected, which
would have made padata_do_parallel() return error before doing the
division.

Fix by introducing a second padata CPU hotplug state before
CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU so that __padata_remove_cpu() sees the online mask
without @cpu.  No need for the second argument to padata_replace() since
@cpu is now already missing from the online mask.

<content type='text'>
Hyper-V has historically initialized stimer-based clockevents late in the
process of onlining a CPU because clockevents depend on stimer
interrupts. In the original Hyper-V design, stimer interrupts generate a
VMbus message, so the VMbus machinery must be running first, and VMbus
can't be initialized until relatively late. On x86/64, LAPIC timer based
clockevents are used during early initialization before VMbus and
stimer-based clockevents are ready, and again during CPU offlining after
the stimer clockevents have been shut down.

Unfortunately, this design creates problems when offlining CPUs for
hibernation or other purposes. stimer-based clockevents are shut down
relatively early in the offlining process, so clockevents_unbind_device()
must be used to fallback to the LAPIC-based clockevents for the remainder
of the offlining process.  Furthermore, the late initialization and early
shutdown of stimer-based clockevents doesn't work well on ARM64 since there
is no other timer like the LAPIC to fallback to. So CPU onlining and
offlining doesn't work properly.

Fix this by recognizing that stimer Direct Mode is the normal path for
newer versions of Hyper-V on x86/64, and the only path on other
architectures. With stimer Direct Mode, stimer interrupts don't require any
VMbus machinery. stimer clockevents can be initialized and shut down
consistent with how it is done for other clockevent devices. While the old
VMbus-based stimer interrupts must still be supported for backward
compatibility on x86, that mode of operation can be treated as legacy.

So add a new Hyper-V stimer entry in the CPU hotplug state list, and use
that new state when in Direct Mode. Update the Hyper-V clocksource driver
to allocate and initialize stimer clockevents earlier during boot. Update
Hyper-V initialization and the VMbus driver to use this new design. As a
result, the LAPIC timer is no longer used during boot or CPU
onlining/offlining and clockevents_unbind_device() is not called.  But
retain the old design as a legacy implementation for older versions of
Hyper-V that don't support Direct Mode.

Enable paravirtualization features when running under a hypervisor
supporting the PV_TIME_ST hypercall.

For each (v)CPU, we ask the hypervisor for the location of a shared
page which the hypervisor will use to report stolen time to us. We set
pv_time_ops to the stolen time function which simply reads the stolen
value from the shared page for a VCPU. We guarantee single-copy
atomicity using READ_ONCE which means we can also read the stolen
time for another VCPU than the currently running one while it is
potentially being updated by the hypervisor.

The cacheinfo structures are alloced/freed by cpu online/offline
callbacks. Originally these were only used by sysfs to expose the
cache topology to user space. Without any in-kernel dependencies
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN was an appropriate choice.

resctrl has started using these structures to identify CPUs that
share a cache. It updates its 'domain' structures from cpu
online/offline callbacks. These depend on the cacheinfo structures
(resctrl_online_cpu()-&gt;domain_add_cpu()-&gt;get_cache_id()-&gt;
 get_cpu_cacheinfo()).
These also run as CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN.

Now that there is an in-kernel dependency, move the cacheinfo
work earlier so we know its done before resctrl's CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN
work runs.

<title>clocksource/drivers/exynos_mct: Increase priority over ARM arch timer</title>

Exynos SoCs based on CA7/CA15 have 2 timer interfaces: custom Exynos MCT
(Multi Core Timer) and standard ARM Architected Timers.

There are use cases, where both timer interfaces are used simultanously.
One of such examples is using Exynos MCT for the main system timer and
ARM Architected Timers for the KVM and virtualized guests (KVM requires
arch timers).

Exynos Multi-Core Timer driver (exynos_mct) must be however started
before ARM Architected Timers (arch_timer), because they both share some
common hardware blocks (global system counter) and turning on MCT is
needed to get ARM Architected Timer working properly.

To ensure selecting Exynos MCT as the main system timer, increase MCT
timer rating. To ensure proper starting order of both timers during
suspend/resume cycle, increase MCT hotplug priority over ARM Archictected
Timers.

Exynos SoCs based on CA7/CA15 have 2 timer interfaces: custom Exynos MCT
(Multi Core Timer) and standard ARM Architected Timers.

There are use cases, where both timer interfaces are used simultanously.
One of such examples is using Exynos MCT for the main system timer and
ARM Architected Timers for the KVM and virtualized guests (KVM requires
arch timers).

Exynos Multi-Core Timer driver (exynos_mct) must be however started
before ARM Architected Timers (arch_timer), because they both share some
common hardware blocks (global system counter) and turning on MCT is
needed to get ARM Architected Timer working properly.

To ensure selecting Exynos MCT as the main system timer, increase MCT
timer rating. To ensure proper starting order of both timers during
suspend/resume cycle, increase MCT hotplug priority over ARM Archictected
Timers.

Adric Blake reported the following warning during suspend-resume:

  Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
  x86: Booting SMP configuration:
  smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x2
  unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x10f (tried to write 0x0000000000000000) \
   at rIP: 0xffffffff8d267924 (native_write_msr+0x4/0x20)
  Call Trace:

The MSR in question is MSR_TFA_RTM_FORCE_ABORT and that MSR is emulated
by microcode. The log above shows that the microcode loader callback
happens after the PMU restoration, leading to the conjecture that
because the microcode hasn't been updated yet, that MSR is not present
yet, leading to the #GP.

Add a microcode loader-specific hotplug vector which comes before
the PERF vectors and thus executes earlier and makes sure the MSR is
present.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Slightly delayed due to the issue with printk() calling
  probe_kernel_read() interacting with our new user access prevention
  stuff, but all fixed now.

  The only out-of-area changes are the addition of a cpuhp_state, small
  additions to Documentation and MAINTAINERS updates.

  Highlights:

   - Support for Kernel Userspace Access/Execution Prevention (like
     SMAP/SMEP/PAN/PXN) on some 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. This prevents
     the kernel from accidentally accessing userspace outside
     copy_to/from_user(), or ever executing userspace.

   - KASAN support on 32-bit.

   - Rework of where we map the kernel, vmalloc, etc. on 64-bit hash to
     use the same address ranges we use with the Radix MMU.

   - A rewrite into C of large parts of our idle handling code for
     64-bit Book3S (ie. power8 &amp; power9).

   - A fast path entry for syscalls on 32-bit CPUs, for a 12-17% speedup
     in the null_syscall benchmark.

   - On 64-bit bare metal we have support for recovering from errors
     with the time base (our clocksource), however if that fails
     currently we hang in __delay() and never crash. We now have support
     for detecting that case and short circuiting __delay() so we at
     least panic() and reboot.

   - Add support for optionally enabling the DAWR on Power9, which had
     to be disabled by default due to a hardware erratum. This has the
     effect of enabling hardware breakpoints for GDB, the downside is a
     badly behaved program could crash the machine by pointing the DAWR
     at cache inhibited memory. This is opt-in obviously.

   - xmon, our crash handler, gets support for a read only mode where
     operations that could change memory or otherwise disturb the system
     are disabled.

  Plus many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.
