The implict soft-mask table addresses get relocated if they use a
relative symbol like a label. This is right for code that runs relocated
but not for unrelocated. The scv interrupt vectors run unrelocated, so
absolute addresses are required for their soft-mask table entry.

This fixes crashing with relocated kernels, usually an asynchronous
interrupt hitting in the scv handler, then hitting the trap that checks
whether r1 is in userspace.

Commit 66f24fa766e3 ("mm: drop redundant ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK")
broke PMD split page table lock for powerpc.

It selects the non-existent config ARCH_ENABLE_PMD_SPLIT_PTLOCK in
arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig.cputype, but clearly intended to
select ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK (notice the word swapping!), as
that commit did for all other architectures.

Fix it by selecting the correct symbol ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK.

Jordan, Fabiano &amp; Murilo were able to reproduce and identify that the
problem is caused by the call to module_enable_ro() in do_init_module(),
which happens after the module's init function has already been called.

Our current implementation of change_page_attr() is not safe against
concurrent accesses, because it invalidates the PTE before flushing the
TLB and then installing the new PTE. That leaves a window in time where
there is no valid PTE for the page, if another CPU tries to access the
page at that time we see something like the fault above.

We can't simply switch to set_pte_at()/flush TLB, because our hash MMU
code doesn't handle a set_pte_at() of a valid PTE. See [1].

But we do have pte_update(), which replaces the old PTE with the new,
meaning there's no window where the PTE is invalid. And the hash MMU
version hash__pte_update() deals with synchronising the hash page table
correctly.

<title>powerpc/32s: Fix random crashes by adding isync() after locking/unlocking KUEP</title>

<id>ef486bf448a057a6e2d50e40ae879f7add6585da</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit b5efec00b671 ("powerpc/32s: Move KUEP locking/unlocking in C")
removed the 'isync' instruction after adding/removing NX bit in user
segments. The reasoning behind this change was that when setting the
NX bit we don't mind it taking effect with delay as the kernel never
executes text from userspace, and when clearing the NX bit this is
to return to userspace and then the 'rfi' should synchronise the
context.

However, it looks like on book3s/32 having a hash page table, at least
on the G3 processor, we get an unexpected fault from userspace, then
this is followed by something wrong in the verification of MSR_PR
at end of another interrupt.

This is fixed by adding back the removed isync() following update
of NX bit in user segment registers. Only do it for cores with an
hash table, as 603 cores don't exhibit that problem and the two isync
increase ./null_syscall selftest by 6 cycles on an MPC 832x.

First problem: unexpected WARN_ON() for mysterious PROTFAULT

Commit b5efec00b671 ("powerpc/32s: Move KUEP locking/unlocking in C")
removed the 'isync' instruction after adding/removing NX bit in user
segments. The reasoning behind this change was that when setting the
NX bit we don't mind it taking effect with delay as the kernel never
executes text from userspace, and when clearing the NX bit this is
to return to userspace and then the 'rfi' should synchronise the
context.

However, it looks like on book3s/32 having a hash page table, at least
on the G3 processor, we get an unexpected fault from userspace, then
this is followed by something wrong in the verification of MSR_PR
at end of another interrupt.

This is fixed by adding back the removed isync() following update
of NX bit in user segment registers. Only do it for cores with an
hash table, as 603 cores don't exhibit that problem and the two isync
increase ./null_syscall selftest by 6 cycles on an MPC 832x.

First problem: unexpected WARN_ON() for mysterious PROTFAULT

Compiling ppc64le_defconfig with clang-14 shows a modpost warning:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0xa74e0): Section mismatch in
reference from the function xive_setup_cpu_ipi() to the function
.init.text:xive_request_ipi()
The function xive_setup_cpu_ipi() references
the function __init xive_request_ipi().
This is often because xive_setup_cpu_ipi lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of xive_request_ipi is wrong.

xive_request_ipi() is called from xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which is not
__init, so xive_request_ipi() should not be marked __init. Remove the
attribute so there is no more warning.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:

 - Fix crashes coming out of nap on 32-bit Book3s (eg. powerbooks).

 - Fix critical and debug interrupts on BookE, seen as crashes when
   using ptrace.

 - Fix an oops when running an SMP kernel on a UP system.

 - Update pseries LPAR security flavor after partition migration.

 - Fix an oops when using kprobes on BookE.

 - Fix oops on 32-bit pmac by not calling do_IRQ() from
   timer_interrupt().

 - Fix softlockups on CPU hotplug into a CPU-less node with xive (P9).

On PowerVM, CPU-less nodes can be populated with hot-plugged CPUs at
runtime. Today, the IPI is not created for such nodes, and hot-plugged
CPUs use a bogus IPI, which leads to soft lockups.

We can not directly allocate and request the IPI on demand because
bringup_up() is called under the IRQ sparse lock. The alternative is
to allocate the IPIs for all possible nodes at startup and to request
the mapping on demand when the first CPU of a node is brought up.

single_step_exception() is called by emulate_single_step() which
is called from (at least) alignment exception() handler and
program_check_exception() handler.

Redefine it as a regular __single_step_exception() which is called
by both single_step_exception() handler and emulate_single_step()
function.

single_step_exception() is called by emulate_single_step() which
is called from (at least) alignment exception() handler and
program_check_exception() handler.

Redefine it as a regular __single_step_exception() which is called
by both single_step_exception() handler and emulate_single_step()
function.
