The device tree CPU features binding includes FSCR bit numbers which
Linux is instructed to set by firmware.
Whether that's a good idea or not, in the case of the DSCR the Linux
implementation has a hard requirement that the FSCR_DSCR bit not be
set by default. We use it to track when a process reads/writes to
DSCR, so it must be clear to begin with.
So if firmware tells us to set FSCR_DSCR we must ignore it.
Currently this does not cause a bug in our DSCR handling because the
value of FSCR that the device tree CPU features code establishes is
only used by swapper. All other tasks use the value hard coded in
init_task.thread.fscr.
However we'd like to fix that in a future commit, at which point this
will become necessary.

__init_FSCR() was added originally in commit 2468dcf641 ("powerpc:
Add support for context switching the TAR register") (Feb 2013), and
only set FSCR_TAR.
At that point FSCR (Facility Status and Control Register) was not
context switched, so the setting was permanent after boot.
Later we added initialisation of FSCR_DSCR to __init_FSCR(), in commit
54c9b2253d ("powerpc: Set DSCR bit in FSCR setup") (Mar 2013), again
that was permanent after boot.
Then commit 2517617e0d ("powerpc: Fix context switch DSCR on
POWER8") (Aug 2013) added a limited context switch of FSCR, just the
FSCR_DSCR bit was context switched based on thread.dscr_inherit. That
commit said "This clears the H/FSCR DSCR bit initially", but it
didn't, it left the initialisation of FSCR_DSCR in __init_FSCR().
However the initial context switch from init_task to pid 1 would clear
FSCR_DSCR because thread.dscr_inherit was 0.
That commit also introduced the requirement that FSCR_DSCR be clear
for user processes, so that we can take the facility unavailable
interrupt in order to manage dscr_inherit.
Then in commit 152d523e63 ("powerpc: Create context switch helpers
save_sprs() and restore_sprs()") (Dec 2015) FSCR was added to
thread_struct. However it still wasn't fully context switched, we just
took the existing value and set FSCR_DSCR if the new thread had
dscr_inherit set. FSCR was still initialised at boot to FSCR_DSCR |
FSCR_TAR, but that value was not propagated into the thread_struct, so
the initial context switch set FSCR_DSCR back to 0.
Finally commit b57bd2de8c ("powerpc: Improve FSCR init and context
switching") (Jun 2016) added a full context switch of the FSCR, and
added an initialisation of init_task.thread.fscr to FSCR_TAR |
FSCR_EBB, but omitted FSCR_DSCR.
The end result is that swapper runs with FSCR_DSCR set because of the
initialisation in __init_FSCR(), but no other processes do, they use
the value from init_task.thread.fscr.
Having FSCR_DSCR set for swapper allows it to access SPR 3 from
userspace, but swapper never runs userspace, so it has no useful
effect. It's also confusing to have the value initialised in two
places to two different values.
So remove FSCR_DSCR from __init_FSCR(), this at least gets us to the
point where there's a single value of FSCR, even if it's still set in
two places.

The NIP points to NULL, or a random location (data even), while the LR
always points to the LEP of a function (with an offset of 8), indicating
that something went wrong with ftrace. However, ftrace is not
necessarily active when such crashes occur.
The kernel OOPS sometimes follows a warning from ftrace indicating that
some module functions could not be patched with a nop. Other times, if a
module is loaded early during boot, instruction patching can fail due to
a separate bug, but the error is not reported due to missing error
reporting.
In all the above cases when instruction patching fails, ftrace will be
disabled but certain kernel module functions will be left with default
calls to _mcount(). This is not a problem with ELFv1. However, with
-mprofile-kernel, the default stub is problematic since it depends on a
valid module TOC in r2. If the kernel (or a different module) calls into
a function that does not use the TOC, the function won't have a prologue
to setup the module TOC. When that function calls into _mcount(), we
will end up in the relocation stub that will use the previous TOC, and
end up trying to jump into a random location. From the above trace:
iomap_apply+0x20c/0x920 [kernel TOC]
|
V
ext4_iomap_end+0x8/0x30 [no GEP == kernel TOC]
|
V
_mcount() stub
[uses kernel TOC -> random entry]
To address this, let's change over to using the special stub that is
used for ftrace_[regs_]caller() for _mcount(). This ensures that we are
not dependent on a valid module TOC in r2 for default _mcount()
handling.

For -mprofile-kernel, we need special handling when generating stubs for
ftrace calls such as _mcount(). To faciliate this, we check if a
R_PPC64_REL24 relocation is for a symbol named "_mcount()" along with
also checking the instruction sequence. The latter is not really
required since "_mcount()" is an exported symbol and kernel modules
cannot use it. As such, drop the additional checking and simplify the
code. This helps unify stub creation for ftrace stubs with
-mprofile-kernel and aids in code reuse.
Also rename is_mprofile_mcount_callsite() to is_mprofile_ftrace_call()
to reflect the checking being done.

Implement rtas_call_reentrant() for reentrant rtas-calls:
"ibm,int-on", "ibm,int-off",ibm,get-xive" and "ibm,set-xive".
On LoPAPR Version 1.1 (March 24, 2016), from 7.3.10.1 to 7.3.10.4,
items 2 and 3 say:
2 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * call must be
reentrant to the number of processors on the platform.
3 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * argument call
buffer for each simultaneous call must be physically unique.
So, these rtas-calls can be called in a lockless way, if using
a different buffer for each cpu doing such rtas call.
For this, it was suggested to add the buffer (struct rtas_args)
in the PACA struct, so each cpu can have it's own buffer.
The PACA struct received a pointer to rtas buffer, which is
allocated in the memory range available to rtas 32-bit.
Reentrant rtas calls are useful to avoid deadlocks in crashing,
where rtas-calls are needed, but some other thread crashed holding
the rtas.lock.
This is a backtrace of a deadlock from a kdump testing environment:

While providing guests, it's desirable to resize it's memory on demand.
By now, it's possible to do so by creating a guest with a small base
memory, hot-plugging all the rest, and using 'movable_node' kernel
command-line parameter, which puts all hot-plugged memory in
ZONE_MOVABLE, allowing it to be removed whenever needed.
But there is an issue regarding guest reboot:
If memory is hot-plugged, and then the guest is rebooted, all hot-plugged
memory goes to ZONE_NORMAL, which offers no guaranteed hot-removal.
It usually prevents this memory to be hot-removed from the guest.
It's possible to use device-tree information to fix that behavior, as
it stores flags for LMB ranges on ibm,dynamic-memory-vN.
It involves marking each memblock with the correct flags as hotpluggable
memory, which mm/memblock.c puts in ZONE_MOVABLE during boot if
'movable_node' is passed.
For carrying such information, the new flag DRCONF_MEM_HOTREMOVABLE was
proposed and accepted into Power Architecture documentation.
This flag should be:
- true (b=1) if the hypervisor may want to hot-remove it later, and
- false (b=0) if it does not care.
During boot, guest kernel reads the device-tree, early_init_drmem_lmb()
is called for every added LMBs. Here, checking for this new flag and
marking memblocks as hotplugable memory is enough to get the desirable
behavior.
This should cause no change if 'movable_node' parameter is not passed
in kernel command-line.

- Bail out of TLB miss handler when CONFIG_SWAP is set and
_PAGE_ACCESSED is not set.
- Bail out of ITLB miss handler when _PAGE_EXEC is not set.
- Only set WR bit when both _PAGE_RW and _PAGE_DIRTY are set.

The code patching code wants to get the value of a struct ppc_inst as
a u64 when the instruction is prefixed, so we can pass the u64 down to
__put_user_asm() and write it with a single store.
The optprobes code wants to load a struct ppc_inst as an immediate
into a register so it is useful to have it as a u64 to use the
existing helper function.
Currently this is a bit awkward because the value differs based on the
CPU endianness, so add a helper to do the conversion.
This fixes the usage in arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe() which was
previously incorrect on big endian.

In a few places we want to calculate the address of the next
instruction. Previously that was simple, we just added 4 bytes, or if
using a u32 * we incremented that pointer by 1.
But prefixed instructions make it more complicated, we need to advance
by either 4 or 8 bytes depending on the actual instruction. We also
can't do pointer arithmetic using struct ppc_inst, because it is
always 8 bytes in size on 64-bit, even though we might only need to
advance by 4 bytes.
So add a ppc_inst_next() helper which calculates the location of the
next instruction, if the given instruction was located at the given
address. Note the instruction doesn't need to actually be at the
address in memory.
Although it would seem natural for the value to be passed by value,
that makes it too easy to write a loop that will read off the end of a
page, eg:
for (; src < end; src = ppc_inst_next(src, *src),
dest = ppc_inst_next(dest, *dest))
As noticed by Christophe and Jordan, if end is the exact end of a
page, and the next page is not mapped, this will fault, because *dest
will read 8 bytes, 4 bytes into the next page.
So value is passed by reference, so the helper can be careful to use
ppc_inst_read() on it.

Merge our fixes branch from this cycle. It contains several important
fixes we need in next for testing purposes, and also some that will
conflict with upcoming changes.
Now that linear and IMMR dedicated TLB handling is gone, kernel
boundary address comparison is similar in ITLB miss handler and
in DTLB miss handler.
Create a macro named compare_to_kernel_boundary.
When TASK_SIZE is strictly below 0x80000000 and PAGE_OFFSET is
above 0x80000000, it is enough to compare to 0x8000000, and this
can be done with a single instruction.
Using not. instruction, we get to use 'blt' conditional branch as
when doing a regular comparison:
0x00000000 <= addr <= 0x7fffffff ==>
0xffffffff >= NOT(addr) >= 0x80000000
The above test corresponds to a 'blt'
Otherwise, do a regular comparison using two instructions.

Pinned TLBs cannot be modified when the MMU is enabled.
Create a function to rewrite the pinned TLB entries with MMU off.
To set pinned TLB, we have to turn off MMU, disable pinning,
do a TLB flush (Either with tlbie and tlbia) then reprogam
the TLB entries, enable pinning and turn on MMU.
If using tlbie, it cleared entries in both instruction and data
TLB regardless whether pinning is disabled or not.
If using tlbia, it clears all entries of the TLB which has
disabled pinning.
To make it easy, just clear all entries in both TLBs, and
reprogram them.
The function takes two arguments, the top of the memory to
consider and whether data is RO under _sinittext.
When DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is set, the top is the end of kernel rodata.
Otherwise, that's the top of physical RAM.

At the time being, 512k huge pages are handled through hugepd page
tables. The PMD entry is flagged as a hugepd pointer and it
means that only 512k hugepages can be managed in that 4M block.
However, the hugepd table has the same size as a normal page
table, and 512k entries can therefore be nested with normal pages.
On the 8xx, TLB loading is performed by software and allthough the
page tables are organised to match the L1 and L2 level defined by
the HW, all TLB entries have both L1 and L2 independent entries.
It means that even if two TLB entries are associated with the same
PMD entry, they can be loaded with different values in L1 part.
The L1 entry contains the page size (PS field):
- 00 for 4k and 16 pages
- 01 for 512k pages
- 11 for 8M pages
By adding a flag for hugepages in the PTE (_PAGE_HUGE) and copying it
into the lower bit of PS, we can then manage 512k pages with normal
page tables:
- PMD entry has PS=11 for 8M pages
- PMD entry has PS=00 for other pages.
As a PMD entry covers 4M areas, a PMD will either point to a hugepd
table having a single entry to an 8M page, or the PMD will point to
a standard page table which will have either entries to 4k or 16k or
512k pages. For 512k pages, as the L1 entry will not know it is a
512k page before the PTE is read, there will be 128 entries in the
PTE as if it was 4k pages. But when loading the TLB, it will be
flagged as a 512k page.
Note that we can't use pmd_ptr() in asm/nohash/32/pgtable.h because
it is not defined yet.
In ITLB miss, we keep the possibility to opt it out as when kernel
text is pinned and no user hugepages are used, we can save several
instruction by not using r11.
In DTLB miss, that's just one instruction so it's not worth bothering
with it.

modify user registers, ie. when it does emulation of move from DSCR.
This is seen as a failure of the dscr_sysfs_thread_test:
test: dscr_sysfs_thread_test
[cpu 0] User DSCR should be 1 but is 0
failure: dscr_sysfs_thread_test
So restore non-volatile GPRs after facility unavailable exceptions.
Currently the hypervisor facility unavailable exception is also wired
up to call facility_unavailable_exception().
In practice we should never take a hypervisor facility unavailable
exception for the DSCR. On older bare metal systems we set HFSCR_DSCR
unconditionally in __init_HFSCR, or on newer systems it should be
enabled via the "data-stream-control-register" device tree CPU
feature.
Even if it's not, since commit f3c99f97a3 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV:
Don't access HFSCR, LPIDR or LPCR when running nested"), the KVM code
has unconditionally set HFSCR_DSCR when running guests.
So we should only get a hypervisor facility unavailable for the DSCR
if skiboot has disabled the "data-stream-control-register" feature,
and we are somehow in guest context but not via KVM.
Given all that, it should be unnecessary to add a restore of
non-volatile GPRs after the hypervisor facility exception, because we
never expect to hit that path. But equally we may as well add the
restore, because we never expect to hit that path, and if we ever did,
at least we would correctly restore the registers to their post
emulation state.
In future we can split the non-HV and HV facility unavailable handling
so that there is no emulation in the HV handler, and then remove the
restore for the HV case.
