<content type='text'>
VAS allocate, modify and deallocate HCALLs returns
H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_1_MSEC or H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_10_MSEC for busy
delay and expects OS to reissue HCALL after that delay. But using
msleep() will often sleep at least 20 msecs even though the
hypervisor suggests OS reissue these HCALLs after 1 or 10msecs.

The open and close VAS window functions hold mutex and then issue
these HCALLs. So these operations can take longer than the
necessary when multiple threads issue open or close window APIs
simultaneously, especially might affect the performance in the
case of repeat open/close APIs for each compression request.

Multiple tasks can open / close VAS windows at the same time
which depends on the available VAS credits. For example, 240
cores system provides 4800 VAS credits. It means 4800 tasks can
execute open VAS windows HCALLs with the mutex. Since each
msleep() will often sleep more than 20 msecs, some tasks are
waiting more than 120 secs to acquire mutex. It can cause hung
traces for these tasks in dmesg due to mutex contention around
open/close HCALLs.

Instead of msleep(), use usleep_range() to ensure sleep with
the expected value before issuing HCALL again. So since each
task sleep 10 msecs maximum, this patch allow more tasks can
issue open/close VAS calls without any hung traces in the
dmesg.

<title>powerpc/pseries/vas: Migration suspend waits for no in-progress open windows</title>

The hypervisor returns migration failure if all VAS windows are not
closed. During pre-migration stage, vas_migration_handler() sets
migration_in_progress flag and closes all windows from the list.
The allocate VAS window routine checks the migration flag, setup
the window and then add it to the list. So there is possibility of
the migration handler missing the window that is still in the
process of setup.

t1: Allocate and open VAS	t2: Migration event
    window

lock vas_pseries_mutex
If migration_in_progress set
  unlock vas_pseries_mutex
  return
open window HCALL
unlock vas_pseries_mutex
Modify window HCALL		lock vas_pseries_mutex
setup window			migration_in_progress=true
				Closes all windows from the list
				// May miss windows that are
				// not in the list
				unlock vas_pseries_mutex
lock vas_pseries_mutex		return
if nr_closed_windows == 0
  // No DLPAR CPU or migration
  add window to the list
  // Window will be added to the
  // list after the setup is completed
  unlock vas_pseries_mutex
  return
unlock vas_pseries_mutex
Close VAS window
// due to DLPAR CPU or migration
return -EBUSY

This patch resolves the issue with the following steps:
- Set the migration_in_progress flag without holding mutex.
- Introduce nr_open_wins_progress counter in VAS capabilities
  struct
- This counter tracks the number of open windows are still in
  progress
- The allocate setup window thread closes windows if the migration
  is set and decrements nr_open_window_progress counter
- The migration handler waits for no in-progress open windows.

The code flow with the fix is as follows:

t1: Allocate and open VAS       t2: Migration event
    window

lock vas_pseries_mutex
If migration_in_progress set
   unlock vas_pseries_mutex
   return
open window HCALL
nr_open_wins_progress++
// Window opened, but not
// added to the list yet
unlock vas_pseries_mutex
Modify window HCALL		migration_in_progress=true
setup window			lock vas_pseries_mutex
				Closes all windows from the list
				While nr_open_wins_progress {
				    unlock vas_pseries_mutex
lock vas_pseries_mutex		    sleep
if nr_closed_windows == 0	    // Wait if any open window in
or migration is not started	    // progress. The open window
   // No DLPAR CPU or migration	    // thread closes the window without
   add window to the list	    // adding to the list and return if
   nr_open_wins_progress--	    // the migration is in progress.
   unlock vas_pseries_mutex
   return
Close VAS window
nr_open_wins_progress--
unlock vas_pseries_mutex
return -EBUSY			    lock vas_pseries_mutex
				}
				unlock vas_pseries_mutex

The VAS open window call prints error message and returns -EBUSY
after the migration suspend event initiated and until the resume
event completed on the destination system. It can cause the log
buffer filled with these error messages if the user space issues
continuous open window calls.  Similar case even for DLPAR CPU
remove event when no credits are available until the credits are
freed or with the other DLPAR CPU add event.

So changes in the patch to use pr_err_ratelimited() instead of
pr_err() to display open window failure and not-available credits
error messages.

Use pr_fmt() and make the corresponding changes to have the
consistencein prefix all pr_*() messages (vas-api.c).

close window in the hypervisor for migration or DLPAR core removal
events. So holds mmap_mutex and then mmap lock before unmap the

The hypervisor supports user-mode NX from Power10.

pseries_vas_dlpar_cpu() is called from lparcfg_write() to update VAS
windows for DLPAR event in shared processor mode and the kernel gets
-ENOTSUPP for HCALLs if the user-mode NX is not supported. The current
VAS implementation also supports only with Radix page tables. Whereas in
dedicated processor mode, pseries_vas_notifier() is registered only if
the copy/paste feature is enabled. So instead of displaying HCALL error
messages, update VAS capabilities if the copy/paste feature is
available.

This patch ignores updating VAS capabilities in pseries_vas_dlpar_cpu()
and returns success if the copy/paste feature is not enabled. Then
lparcfg_write() completes the processor DLPAR operations without any
failures.

<title>mm: remove zap_page_range and create zap_vma_pages</title>

zap_page_range was originally designed to unmap pages within an address
range that could span multiple vmas.  While working on [1], it was
discovered that all callers of zap_page_range pass a range entirely within
a single vma.  In addition, the mmu notification call within zap_page
range does not correctly handle ranges that span multiple vmas.  When
crossing a vma boundary, a new mmu_notifier_range_init/end call pair with
the new vma should be made.

Instead of fixing zap_page_range, do the following:
- Create a new routine zap_vma_pages() that will remove all pages within
  the passed vma.  Most users of zap_page_range pass the entire vma and
  can use this new routine.
- For callers of zap_page_range not passing the entire vma, instead call
  zap_page_range_single().
- Remove zap_page_range.

<content type='text'>
The hypervisor assigns VAS (Virtual Accelerator Switchboard)
windows depends on cores configured in LPAR. The kernel uses
OF reconfig notifier to reconfig VAS windows for DLPAR CPU event.
In the case of shared CPU mode partition, the hypervisor assigns
VAS windows depends on CPU entitled capacity, not based on vcpus.
When the user changes CPU entitled capacity for the partition,
drmgr uses /proc/ppc64/lparcfg interface to notify the kernel.

This patch adds the following changes to update VAS resources
for shared mode:
- Call vas reconfig windows from lparcfg_write()
- Ignore reconfig changes in the VAS notifier
