For simplicity in backporting, the original entry_flush test contained
a lot of duplicated code from the rfi_flush test. De-duplicate that code.

<id>89a83a0c69c81a25ce91002b90ca27ed86132a0a</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a test modelled on the RFI flush test which counts the number
of L1D misses doing a simple syscall with the entry flush on and off.

For simplicity of backporting, this test duplicates a lot of code from
rfi_flush. We clean that up in the next patch.

<title>selftests/powerpc: rfi_flush: disable entry flush if present</title>

<id>fcb48454c23c5679d1a2e252f127642e91b05cbe</id>
<content type='text'>
We are about to add an entry flush. The rfi (exit) flush test measures
the number of L1D flushes over a syscall with the RFI flush enabled and
disabled. But if the entry flush is also enabled, the effect of enabling
and disabling the RFI flush is masked.

If there is a debugfs entry for the entry flush, disable it during the RFI
flush and restore it later.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:

 - A fix for undetected data corruption on Power9 Nimbus &lt;= DD2.1 in the
   emulation of VSX loads. The affected CPUs were not widely available.

 - Two fixes for machine check handling in guests under PowerVM.

 - A fix for our recent changes to SMP setup, when
   CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.

 - Three fixes for races in the handling of some of our powernv sysfs
   attributes.

 - One change to remove TM from the set of Power10 CPU features.

 - A couple of other minor fixes.

alignment_handler currently only tests the unaligned cases but it can
also be useful for testing the workaround for the P9N DD2.1 vector CI
load issue fixed by p9_hmi_special_emu(). This workaround was
introduced in 5080332c2c89 ("powerpc/64s: Add workaround for P9 vector
CI load issue").

This changes the loop to start from offset 0 rather than 1 so that we
test the kernel emulation in p9_hmi_special_emu().

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - A series from Nick adding ARCH_WANT_IRQS_OFF_ACTIVATE_MM &amp; selecting
   it for powerpc, as well as a related fix for sparc.

 - Remove support for PowerPC 601.

 - Some fixes for watchpoints &amp; addition of a new ptrace flag for
   detecting ISA v3.1 (Power10) watchpoint features.

 - A fix for kernels using 4K pages and the hash MMU on bare metal
   Power9 systems with &gt; 16TB of RAM, or RAM on the 2nd node.

 - A basic idle driver for shallow stop states on Power10.

 - Tweaks to our sched domains code to better inform the scheduler about
   the hardware topology on Power9/10, where two SMT4 cores can be
   presented by firmware as an SMT8 core.

 - A series doing further reworks &amp; cleanups of our EEH code.

 - Addition of a filter for RTAS (firmware) calls done via sys_rtas(),
   to prevent root from overwriting kernel memory.

 - Other smaller features, fixes &amp; cleanups.

The kselftests test running infrastructure expects tests to finish with an
exit code of 4 if the test decided it should be skipped. Currently
eeh-basic.sh exits with the number of devices that failed to recover, so if
four devices didn't recover we'll report a skip instead of a fail.

Fix this by checking if the return code is non-zero and report success
and failure by returning 0 or 1 respectively. For the cases where should
actually skip return 4.

Pull RAS updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Extend the recovery from MCE in kernel space also to processes which
   encounter an MCE in kernel space but while copying from user memory
   by sending them a SIGBUS on return to user space and umapping the
   faulty memory, by Tony Luck and Youquan Song.

 - memcpy_mcsafe() rework by splitting the functionality into
   copy_mc_to_user() and copy_mc_to_kernel(). This, as a result, enables
   support for new hardware which can recover from a machine check
   encountered during a fast string copy and makes that the default and
   lets the older hardware which does not support that advance recovery,
   opt in to use the old, fragile, slow variant, by Dan Williams.

 - New AMD hw enablement, by Yazen Ghannam and Akshay Gupta.

 - Do not use MSR-tracing accessors in #MC context and flag any fault
   while accessing MCA architectural MSRs as an architectural violation
   with the hope that such hw/fw misdesigns are caught early during the
   hw eval phase and they don't make it into production.

 - Misc fixes, improvements and cleanups, as always.

Pull RAS updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Extend the recovery from MCE in kernel space also to processes which
   encounter an MCE in kernel space but while copying from user memory
   by sending them a SIGBUS on return to user space and umapping the
   faulty memory, by Tony Luck and Youquan Song.

 - memcpy_mcsafe() rework by splitting the functionality into
   copy_mc_to_user() and copy_mc_to_kernel(). This, as a result, enables
   support for new hardware which can recover from a machine check
   encountered during a fast string copy and makes that the default and
   lets the older hardware which does not support that advance recovery,
   opt in to use the old, fragile, slow variant, by Dan Williams.

 - New AMD hw enablement, by Yazen Ghannam and Akshay Gupta.

 - Do not use MSR-tracing accessors in #MC context and flag any fault
   while accessing MCA architectural MSRs as an architectural violation
   with the hope that such hw/fw misdesigns are caught early during the
   hw eval phase and they don't make it into production.

 - Misc fixes, improvements and cleanups, as always.

In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

  &gt; &gt; It works because the exception on the source address due to poison
  &gt; &gt; looks no different than a write fault on the user address to the
  &gt; &gt; caller, it's still just a short copy. So it makes copy_to_user() work
  &gt; &gt; for the wrong reason relative to the name.
  &gt;
  &gt; Right.
  &gt;
  &gt; And it won't work that way on other architectures. On x86, we have a
  &gt; generic function that can take faults on either side, and we use it
  &gt; for both cases (and for the "in_user" case too), but that's an
  &gt; artifact of the architecture oddity.
  &gt;
  &gt; In fact, it's probably wrong even on x86 - because it can hide bugs -
  &gt; but writing those things is painful enough that everybody prefers
  &gt; having just one function.

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.
