powerpc/rtas: allow rescheduling while changing cpu states

2019-08-20T11:22:27+00:00

rtas_cpu_state_change_mask() potentially operates on scores of cpus,
so explicitly allow rescheduling in the loop body.

powerpc/rtas: use device model APIs and serialization during LPM

2019-08-20T11:22:27+00:00

The LPAR migration implementation and userspace-initiated cpu hotplug
can interleave their executions like so:

1. Set cpu 7 offline via sysfs.

2. Begin a partition migration, whose implementation requires the OS
   to ensure all present cpus are online; cpu 7 is onlined:

     rtas_ibm_suspend_me -> rtas_online_cpus_mask -> cpu_up

   This sets cpu 7 online in all respects except for the cpu's
   corresponding struct device; dev->offline remains true.

3. Set cpu 7 online via sysfs. _cpu_up() determines that cpu 7 is
   already online and returns success. The driver core (device_online)
   sets dev->offline = false.

4. The migration completes and restores cpu 7 to offline state:

     rtas_ibm_suspend_me -> rtas_offline_cpus_mask -> cpu_down

This leaves cpu7 in a state where the driver core considers the cpu
device online, but in all other respects it is offline and
unused. Attempts to online the cpu via sysfs appear to succeed but the
driver core actually does not pass the request to the lower-level
cpuhp support code. This makes the cpu unusable until the cpu device
is manually set offline and then online again via sysfs.

Instead of directly calling cpu_up/cpu_down, the migration code should
use the higher-level device core APIs to maintain consistent state and
serialize operations.

"Notable changes:

- Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver,
as well as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't
(yet?) made it upstream.

- A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf
record -e mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and
kernel crashes.

- Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for
vmalloc when using the Radix MMU.

- A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to
use gas macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.

And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

powerpc/rtas: retry when cpu offline races with suspend/migration

2019-07-01T06:26:54+00:00

The protocol for suspending or migrating an LPAR requires all present
processor threads to enter H_JOIN. So if we have threads offline, we
have to temporarily bring them up. This can race with administrator
actions such as SMT state changes. As of dfd718a2ed1f ("powerpc/rtas:
Fix a potential race between CPU-Offline & Migration"),
rtas_ibm_suspend_me() accounts for this, but errors out with -EBUSY
for what almost certainly is a transient condition in any reasonable
scenario.

Callers of rtas_ibm_suspend_me() already retry when -EAGAIN is
returned, and it is typical during a migration for that to happen
repeatedly for several minutes polling the H_VASI_STATE hcall result
before proceeding to the next stage.

So return -EAGAIN instead of -EBUSY when this race is
encountered. Additionally: logging this event is still appropriate but
use pr_info instead of pr_err; and remove use of unlikely() while here
as this is not a hot path at all.

powerpc/rtas: Fix a potential race between CPU-Offline & Migration

2018-10-13T11:21:25+00:00

Live Partition Migrations require all the present CPUs to execute the
H_JOIN call, and hence rtas_ibm_suspend_me() onlines any offline CPUs
before initiating the migration for this purpose.

The commit 85a88cabad57
("powerpc/pseries: Disable CPU hotplug across migrations")
disables any CPU-hotplug operations once all the offline CPUs are
brought online to prevent any further state change. Once the
CPU-Hotplug operation is disabled, the code assumes that all the CPUs
are online.

However, there is a minor window in rtas_ibm_suspend_me() between
onlining the offline CPUs and disabling CPU-Hotplug when a concurrent
CPU-offline operations initiated by the userspace can succeed thereby
nullifying the the aformentioned assumption. In this unlikely case
these offlined CPUs will not call H_JOIN, resulting in a system hang.

Fix this by verifying that all the present CPUs are actually online
after CPU-Hotplug has been disabled, failing which we restore the
state of the offline CPUs in rtas_ibm_suspend_me() and return an
-EBUSY.
