<title>powerpc: Add -Werror at arch/powerpc level</title>

Back when I added -Werror in commit ba55bd74360e ("powerpc: Add
configurable -Werror for arch/powerpc") I did it by adding it to most
of the arch Makefiles.

At the time we excluded math-emu, because apparently it didn't build
cleanly. But that seems to have been fixed somewhere in the interim.

So move the -Werror addition to the top-level of the arch, this saves
us from repeating it in every Makefile and means we won't forget to
add it to any new sub-dirs.

<title>powerpc: Disable -Wbuiltin-requires-header when setjmp is used</title>

The powerpc kernel uses setjmp which causes a warning when building
with clang:

  In file included from arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:51:
  ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/setjmp.h:15:13: error: declaration of
  built-in function 'setjmp' requires inclusion of the header &lt;setjmp.h&gt;
        [-Werror,-Wbuiltin-requires-header]
  extern long setjmp(long *);
              ^
  ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/setjmp.h:16:13: error: declaration of
  built-in function 'longjmp' requires inclusion of the header &lt;setjmp.h&gt;
        [-Werror,-Wbuiltin-requires-header]
  extern void longjmp(long *, long);
              ^

This *is* the header and we're not using the built-in setjump but
rather the one in arch/powerpc/kernel/misc.S. As the compiler warning
does not make sense, it for the files where setjmp is used.

<title>powerpc/32: add stack protector support</title>

<id>c3ff2a5193fa61b1b284cfb1d79628814ed0e95a</id>
<content type='text'>
This functionality was tentatively added in the past
(commit 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector
(-fstack-protector) support")) but had to be reverted
(commit f2574030b0e3 ("powerpc: Revert the initial stack
protector support") because of GCC implementing it differently
whether it had been built with libc support or not.

Now, GCC offers the possibility to manually set the
stack-protector mode (global or tls) regardless of libc support.

This time, the patch selects HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR only if
-mstack-protector-guard=tls is supported by GCC.

On PPC32, as register r2 points to current task_struct at
all time, the stack_canary located inside task_struct can be
used directly by using the following GCC options:
-mstack-protector-guard=tls
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2
-mstack-protector-guard-offset=offsetof(struct task_struct, stack_canary))

The protector is disabled for prom_init and bootx_init as
it is too early to handle it properly.

In Makefiles if we're testing a CONFIG_FOO symbol for equality with 'y'
we can instead just use ifdef. The latter reads easily, so convert to
it where possible.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - Support for 4PB user address space on 64-bit, opt-in via mmap().

   - Removal of POWER4 support, which was accidentally broken in 2016
     and no one noticed, and blocked use of some modern instructions.

   - Workarounds so that the hypervisor can enable Transactional Memory
     on Power9.

   - A series to disable the DAWR (Data Address Watchpoint Register) on
     Power9.

   - More information displayed in the meltdown/spectre_v1/v2 sysfs
     files.

   - A vpermxor (Power8 Altivec) implementation for the raid6 Q
     Syndrome.

   - A big series to make the allocation of our pacas (per cpu area),
     kernel page tables, and per-cpu stacks NUMA aware when using the
     Radix MMU on Power9.

  And as usual many fixes, reworks and cleanups.

<title>powerpc: Add security feature flags for Spectre/Meltdown</title>

<id>9a868f634349e62922c226834aa23e3d1329ae7f</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit adds security feature flags to reflect the settings we
receive from firmware regarding Spectre/Meltdown mitigations.

The feature names reflect the names we are given by firmware on bare
metal machines. See the hostboot source for details.

Arguably these could be firmware features, but that then requires them
to be read early in boot so they're available prior to asm feature
patching, but we don't actually want to use them for patching. We may
also want to dynamically update them in future, which would be
incompatible with the way firmware features work (at the moment at
least). So for now just make them separate flags.

Incremental linking is gone, so rename built-in.o to built-in.a, which
is the usual extension for archive files.

This patch does two things, first is a simple search/replace:

git grep -l 'built-in\.o' | xargs sed -i 's/built-in\.o/built-in\.a/g'

The second is to invert nesting of nested text manipulations to avoid
filtering built-in.a out from libs-y2:

-libs-y2 := $(filter-out %.a, $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(libs-y)))
+libs-y2 := $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(filter-out %.a, $(libs-y)))

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "A bit of a small release, I suspect in part due to me travelling for
  KS. But my backlog of patches to review is smaller than usual, so I
  think in part folks just didn't send as much this cycle.

  Non-highlights:

   - Five fixes for the &gt;128T address space handling, both to fix bugs
     in our implementation and to bring the semantics exactly into line
     with x86.

  Highlights:

   - Support for a new OPAL call on bare metal machines which gives us a
     true NMI (ie. is not masked by MSR[EE]=0) for debugging etc.

   - Support for Power9 DD2 in the CXL driver.

   - Improvements to machine check handling so that uncorrectable errors
     can be reported into the generic memory_failure() machinery.

   - Some fixes and improvements for VPHN, which is used under PowerVM
     to notify the Linux partition of topology changes.

   - Plumbing to enable TM (transactional memory) without suspend on
     some Power9 processors (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NO_SUSPEND).

   - Support for emulating vector loads form cache-inhibited memory, on
     some Power9 revisions.

   - Disable the fast-endian switch "syscall" by default (behind a
     CONFIG), we believe it has never had any users.

   - A major rework of the API drivers use when initiating and waiting
     for long running operations performed by OPAL firmware, and changes
     to the powernv_flash driver to use the new API.

   - Several fixes for the handling of FP/VMX/VSX while processes are
     using transactional memory.

   - Optimisations of TLB range flushes when using the radix MMU on
     Power9.

   - Improvements to the VAS facility used to access coprocessors on
     Power9, and related improvements to the way the NX crypto driver
     handles requests.

   - Implementation of PMEM_API and UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE for 64-bit.
