powerpc/32s: set up an early static hash table for KASAN.
KASAN requires early activation of hash table, before memblock()
functions are available.
This patch implements an early hash_table statically defined in
__initdata.
During early boot, a single page table is used.
For hash32, when doing the final init, one page table is allocated
for each PGD entry because of the _PAGE_HASHPTE flag which can't be
common to several virt pages. This is done after memblock get
available but before switching to the final hash table, otherwise
there are issues with TLB flushing due to the shared entries.

powerpc/32s: move hash code patching out of MMU_init_hw()
For KASAN, hash table handling will be activated early for
accessing to KASAN shadow areas.
In order to avoid any modification of the hash functions while
they are still used with the early hash table, the code patching
is moved out of MMU_init_hw() and put close to the big-bang switch
to the final hash table.

This patch adds KASAN support for PPC32. The following patch
will add an early activation of hash table for book3s. Until
then, a warning will be raised if trying to use KASAN on an
hash 6xx.
To support KASAN, this patch initialises that MMU mapings for
accessing to the KASAN shadow area defined in a previous patch.
An early mapping is set as soon as the kernel code has been
relocated at its definitive place.
Then the definitive mapping is set once paging is initialised.
For modules, the shadow area is allocated at module_alloc().

powerpc/32: use memset() instead of memset_io() to zero BSS
Since commit 92b3eb5499374 ("powerpc32: memset: only use dcbz once cache is
enabled"), memset() can be used before activation of the cache,
so no need to use memset_io() for zeroing the BSS.
CONFIG_KASAN implements wrappers for memcpy() memmove() and memset()
Those wrappers are doing the verification then call respectively
__memcpy() __memmove() and __memset(). The arches are therefore
expected to rename their optimised functions that way.
For files on which KASAN is inhibited, #defines are used to allow
them to directly call optimised versions of the functions without
going through the KASAN wrappers.
See commit 74ea02098be8 ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for
memset/memmove/memcpy functions") for details.
Other string / mem functions do not (yet) have kasan wrappers,
we therefore have to fallback to the generic versions when
KASAN is active, otherwise KASAN checks will be skipped.

powerpc/tm: Avoid machine crash on rt_sigreturn()
There is a kernel crash that happens if rt_sigreturn() is called inside
a transactional block.
This crash happens if the kernel hits an in-kernel page fault when
accessing userspace memory, usually through copy_ckvsx_to_user(). A
major page fault calls might_sleep() function, which can cause a task
reschedule. A task reschedule (switch_to()) reclaim and recheckpoint
the TM states, but, in the signal return path, the checkpointed memory
was already reclaimed, thus the exception stack has MSR that points to
MSR[TS]=0.
When the code returns from might_sleep() and a task reschedule
happened, then this task is returned with the memory recheckpointed,
and CPU MSR[TS] = suspended.
This means that there is a side effect at might_sleep() if it is
called with CPU MSR[TS] = 0 and the task has regs->msr[TS] != 0.
This side effect can cause a TM bad thing, since at the exception
entrance, the stack saves MSR[TS]=0, and this is what will be used at
RFID, but, the processor has MSR[TS] = Suspended, and this transition
will be invalid and a TM Bad thing will be raised, causing the
following crash:
The solution for this problem is running the sigreturn code with
regs->msr[TS] disabled, thus, avoiding hitting the side effect above.
This does not seem to be a problem since regs->msr will be replaced by
the ucontext value, so, it is being flushed already. In this case, it
is flushed earlier.

powerpc/64s: Reimplement book3s idle code in C
Reimplement Book3S idle code in C, moving POWER7/8/9 implementation
speific HV idle code to the powernv platform code.
Book3S assembly stubs are kept in common code and used only to save
the stack frame and non-volatile GPRs before executing architected
idle instructions, and restoring the stack and reloading GPRs then
returning to C after waking from idle.
The complex logic dealing with threads and subcores, locking, SPRs,
HMIs, timebase resync, etc., is all done in C which makes it more
maintainable.
This is not a strict translation to C code, there are some
significant differences:
- Idle wakeup no longer uses the ->cpu_restore call to reinit SPRs,
but saves and restores them itself.
- The optimisation where EC=ESL=0 idle modes did not have to save GPRs
or change MSR is restored, because it's now simple to do. ESL=1
sleeps that do not lose GPRs can use this optimization too.
- KVM secondary entry and cede is now more of a call/return style
rather than branchy. nap_state_lost is not required because KVM
always returns via NVGPR restoring path.
- KVM secondary wakeup from offline sequence is moved entirely into
the offline wakeup, which avoids a hwsync in the normal idle wakeup
path.
Performance measured with context switch ping-pong on different
threads or cores, is possibly improved a small amount, 1-3% depending
on stop state and core vs thread test for shallow states. Deep states
it's in the noise compared with other latencies.
KVM improvements:
- Idle sleepers now always return to caller rather than branch out
to KVM first.
- This allows optimisations like very fast return to caller when no
state has been lost.
- KVM no longer requires nap_state_lost because it controls NVGPR
save/restore itself on the way in and out.
- The heavy idle wakeup KVM request check can be moved out of the
normal host idle code and into the not-performance-critical offline
code.
- KVM nap code now returns from where it is called, which makes the
flow a bit easier to follow.

When removing memory we need to remove the memory from the node

During testing we have seen scenarios where the affinity for a
LMB changes due to a partition migration or PRRN event. In these
cases the node the LMB exists in may not match the node the device
tree indicates it belongs in. This can lead to a system crash
when trying to DLPAR remove the LMB after a migration or PRRN
event. The current code looks up the node in the device tree to
remove the LMB from, the crash occurs when we try to offline this
node and it does not have any data, i.e. node_data[nid] == NULL.
To resolve this we need to track the node a LMB belongs to when
it is added to the system so we can remove it from that node instead

The previous patch modifies the page protection so that RW user

This patch changes userspace segment registers are set to Ku 0

segment register is then changed to Ks 0 in order to allow write

In order to avoid having the read all segment registers when

and saved on stack on exceptions. The field identifies both the
first unlocked segment and the first segment following the last
unlocked one. When no segment is unlocked, it contains value 0.

need to be handled by handle_page_fault when KUAP is set.

powerpc/mm: Detect bad KUAP faults
When KUAP is enabled we have logic to detect page faults that occur
outside of a valid user access region and are blocked by the AMR.
What we don't have at the moment is logic to detect a fault *within* a
valid user access region, that has been incorrectly blocked by AMR.
This is not meant to ever happen, but it can if we incorrectly
save/restore the AMR, or if the AMR was overwritten for some other
reason.
Currently if that happens we assume it's just a regular fault that
will be corrected by handling the fault normally, so we just return.
But there is nothing the fault handling code can do to fix it, so the
fault just happens again and we spin forever, leading to soft lockups.
So add some logic to detect that case and WARN() if we ever see it.
Arguably it should be a BUG(), but it's more polite to fail the access
and let the kernel continue, rather than taking down the box. There
should be no data integrity issue with failing the fault rather than
BUG'ing, as we're just going to disallow an access that should have
been allowed.

powerpc/64s: Implement KUAP for Radix MMU
Kernel Userspace Access Prevention utilises a feature of the Radix MMU
which disallows read and write access to userspace addresses. By
utilising this, the kernel is prevented from accessing user data from
outside of trusted paths that perform proper safety checks, such as
copy_{to/from}_user() and friends.
Userspace access is disabled from early boot and is only enabled when
performing an operation like copy_{to/from}_user(). The register that
controls this (AMR) does not prevent userspace from accessing itself,
so there is no need to save and restore when entering and exiting
userspace.
When entering the kernel from the kernel we save AMR and if it is not
blocking user access (because eg. we faulted doing a user access) we
reblock user access for the duration of the exception (ie. the page
fault) and then restore the AMR when returning back to the kernel.
This feature can be tested by using the lkdtm driver (CONFIG_LKDTM=y)
and performing the following:
If enabled, this should send SIGSEGV to the thread.
We also add paranoid checking of AMR in switch and syscall return
under CONFIG_PPC_KUAP_DEBUG.
