powerpc: Remove unused flush_dcache_phys_range()

2018-03-20T05:47:53+00:00

The flush_dcache_phys_range() function is no longer used in the
kernel. The last usage was removed in c40785ad305b ("powerpc/dart: Use
a cachable DART").

This patch removes the function and declaration.

powerpc/kexec: Fix kexec/kdump in P9 guest kernels

2017-11-24T05:49:37+00:00

The code that cleans up the IAMR/AMOR before kexec'ing failed to
remember that when we're running as a guest AMOR is not writable, it's
hypervisor privileged.

They symptom is that the kexec stops before entering purgatory and
nothing else is seen on the console. If you examine the state of the
system all threads will be in the 0x700 program check handler.

Fix it by making the write to AMOR dependent on HV mode.

powerpc/kexec: Fix radix to hash kexec due to IAMR/AMOR

2017-07-10T11:07:38+00:00

This patch fixes a crash seen while doing a kexec from radix mode to
hash mode. Key 0 is special in hash and used in the RPN by default, we
set the key values to 0 today. In radix mode key 0 is used to control
supervisor<->user access. In hash key 0 is used by default, so the
first instruction after the switch causes a crash on kexec.

Commit 3b10d0095a1e ("powerpc/mm/radix: Prevent kernel execution of
user space") introduced the setting of IAMR and AMOR values to prevent
execution of user mode instructions from supervisor mode. We need to
clean up these SPR's on kexec.

powerpc/64: Fix flush_(d|i)cache_range() called from modules

2017-04-05T11:40:21+00:00

When the kernel is compiled to use 64bit ABIv2 the _GLOBAL() macro does
not include a global entry point. A function's global entry point is
used when the function is called from a different TOC context and in the
kernel this typically means a call from a module into the vmlinux (or
vice-versa).

There are a few exported asm functions declared with _GLOBAL() and
calling them from a module will likely crash the kernel since any TOC
relative load will yield garbage.

flush_icache_range() and flush_dcache_range() are both exported to
modules, and use the TOC, so must use _GLOBAL_TOC().

powerpc/64: Fix naming of cache block vs. cache line

2017-02-06T08:46:04+00:00

In a number of places we called "cache line size" what is actually
the cache block size, which in the powerpc architecture, means the
effective size to use with cache management instructions (it can
be different from the actual cache line size).

We fix the naming across the board and properly retrieve both
pieces of information when available in the device-tree.

powerpc: Change places using CONFIG_KEXEC to use CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead.

2016-11-30T12:15:11+00:00

Commit 2965faa5e03d ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.

Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

2016-10-14T21:26:58+00:00

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:

 - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.

   This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
   checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
   working on a patch to fix this.

   Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
   change prototypes.

 - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
   Piggin

 - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.

 - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
   -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections

 - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell

 - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

powerpc/64/kexec: Copy image with MMU off when possible

2016-09-22T21:54:18+00:00

Currently we turn the MMU off after copying the image, and we make
sure there is no overlap between the hash table and the target pages
in that case.

That doesn't work for Radix however. In that case, the page tables
are scattered and we can't really enforce that the target of the
image isn't overlapping one of them.

So instead, let's turn the MMU off before copying the image in radix
mode. Thankfully, in radix mode, even under a hypervisor, we know we
don't have the same kind of RMA limitations that hash mode has.

While at it, also turn the MMU off early when using hash in non-LPAR
mode, that way we can get rid of the collision check completely.

powerpc/64/kexec: NULL check "clear_all" in kexec_sequence

2016-09-22T21:54:05+00:00

With Radix, it can be NULL even on !BOOKE these days so replace
the ifdef with a NULL check which is cleaner anyway.
