powerpc/bug: Remove specific powerpc BUG_ON() and WARN_ON() on PPC32
powerpc BUG_ON() and WARN_ON() are based on using twnei instruction.
For catching simple conditions like a variable having value 0, this
is efficient because it does the test and the trap at the same time.
But most conditions used with BUG_ON or WARN_ON are more complex and
forces GCC to format the condition into a 0 or 1 value in a register.
This will usually require 2 to 3 instructions.
The most efficient solution would be to use __builtin_trap() because
GCC is able to optimise the use of the different trap instructions
based on the requested condition, but this is complex if not
impossible for the following reasons:
- __builtin_trap() is a non-recoverable instruction, so it can't be
used for WARN_ON
- Knowing which line of code generated the trap would require the
analysis of DWARF information. This is not a feature we have today.
As mentioned in commit c952e9f1dbf2 ("Fix WARN_ON() on bitfield ops")
the way WARN_ON() is implemented is suboptimal. That commit also
mentions an issue with 'long long' condition. It fixed it for
WARN_ON() but the same problem still exists today with BUG_ON() on
PPC32. It will be fixed by using the generic implementation.
By using the generic implementation, gcc will naturally generate a
branch to the unconditional trap generated by BUG().
As modern powerpc implement zero-cycle branch,
that's even more efficient.
And for the functions using WARN_ON() and its return, the test
on return from WARN_ON() is now also used for the WARN_ON() itself.
On PPC64 we don't want it because we want to be able to use CFAR
register to track how we entered the code that trapped. The CFAR
register would be clobbered by the branch.
A simple test function:
unsigned long test9w(unsigned long a, unsigned long b)
{
if (WARN_ON(!b))
return 0;
return a / b;
}
powerpc/pseries: Add support for FORM2 associativity
PAPR interface currently supports two different ways of communicating resource
grouping details to the OS. These are referred to as Form 0 and Form 1
associativity grouping. Form 0 is the older format and is now considered
deprecated. This patch adds another resource grouping named FORM2.
powerpc/pseries: Add a helper for form1 cpu distance
This helper is only used with the dispatch trace log collection.
A later patch will add Form2 affinity support and this change helps
in keeping that simpler. Also add a comment explaining we don't expect
the code to be called with FORM0
powerpc/pseries: Consolidate different NUMA distance update code paths
The associativity details of the newly added resourced are collected from
the hypervisor via "ibm,configure-connector" rtas call. Update the numa
distance details of the newly added numa node after the above call.
Instead of updating NUMA distance every time we lookup a node id
from the associativity property, add helpers that can be used
during boot which does this only once. Also remove the distance
update from node id lookup helpers.
Currently, we duplicate parsing code for ibm,associativity and
ibm,associativity-lookup-arrays in the kernel. The associativity array provided
by these device tree properties are very similar and hence can use
a helper to parse the node id and numa distance details.
powerpc: rename powerpc_debugfs_root to arch_debugfs_dir
No functional change in this patch. arch_debugfs_dir is the generic kernel

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XIVE: Add support for automatic save-restore
On P10, the feature doing an automatic "save & restore" of a VCPU
interrupt context is set by default in OPAL. When a VP context is
pulled out, the state of the interrupt registers are saved by the XIVE
interrupt controller under the internal NVP structure representing the
VP. This saves a costly store/load in guest entries and exits.
If OPAL advertises the "save & restore" feature in the device tree,
it should also have set the 'H' bit in the CAM line. Check that when
vCPUs are connected to their ICP in KVM before going any further.
There is no need to use the lockup detector ("noirqdebug") for IPIs.
The ipistorm benchmark measures a ~10% improvement on high systems
when this flag is set.
powerpc/xive: Use XIVE domain under xmon and debugfs
The default domain of the PCI/MSIs is not the XIVE domain anymore. To
list the IRQ mappings under XMON and debugfs, query the IRQ data from
the low level XIVE domain.
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XICS: Fix mapping of passthrough interrupts
PCI MSIs now live in an MSI domain but the underlying calls, which
will EOI the interrupt in real mode, need an HW IRQ number mapped in
the XICS IRQ domain. Grab it there.
pnv_opal_pci_msi_eoi() is called from KVM to EOI passthrough interrupts
when in real mode. Adding MSI domain broke the hack using the
'ioda.irq_chip' field to deduce the owning PHB. Fix that by using the
IRQ chip data in the MSI domain.
The 'ioda.irq_chip' field is now unused and could be removed from the
pnv_phb struct.
powerpc/powernv/pci: Set the IRQ chip data for P8/CXL devices
Before MSI domains, the default IRQ chip of PHB3 MSIs was patched by
pnv_set_msi_irq_chip() with the custom EOI handler pnv_ioda2_msi_eoi()
and the owning PHB was deduced from the 'ioda.irq_chip' field. This
path has been deprecated by the MSI domains but it is still in use by
the P8 CAPI 'cxl' driver.
Rewriting this driver to support MSI would be a waste of time.
Nevertheless, we can still remove the IRQ chip patch and set the IRQ
chip data instead. This is cleaner.
desc->irq_data points to the top level IRQ data descriptor which is
not necessarily in the XICS IRQ domain. MSIs are in another domain for
instance. Fix that by looking for a mapping on the low level XICS IRQ
domain.
powerpc/powernv/pci: Customize the MSI EOI handler to support PHB3
PHB3s need an extra OPAL call to EOI the interrupt. The call takes an
OPAL HW IRQ number but it is translated into a vector number in OPAL.
Here, we directly use the vector number of the in-the-middle "PNV-MSI"
domain instead of grabbing the OPAL HW IRQ number in the XICS parent
domain.
powerpc/xics: Rename the map handler in a check handler
This moves the IRQ initialization done under the different ICS backends
in the common part of XICS. The 'map' handler becomes a simple 'check'
on the HW IRQ at the FW level.
As we don't need an ICS anymore in xics_migrate_irqs_away(), the XICS
domain does not set a chip data for the IRQ.
We always had only one ICS per machine. Simplify the XICS driver by
removing the ICS list.
The ICS stored in the chip data of the XICS domain becomes useless and
we don't need it anymore to migrate away IRQs from a CPU. This will be
removed in a subsequent patch.
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XIVE: Fix mapping of passthrough interrupts
PCI MSI interrupt numbers are now mapped in a PCI-MSI domain but the
underlying calls handling the passthrough of the interrupt in the
guest need a number in the XIVE IRQ domain.
Use the IRQ data mapped in the XIVE IRQ domain and not the one in the
PCI-MSI domain.
The routine kvmppc_set_passthru_irq() calls kvmppc_xive_set_mapped()
and kvmppc_xive_clr_mapped() with an IRQ descriptor. Use directly the
host IRQ number to remove a useless conversion.
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use the new IRQ chip to detect passthrough interrupts
Passthrough PCI MSI interrupts are detected in KVM with a check on a
specific EOI handler (P8) or on XIVE (P9). We can now check the
PCI-MSI IRQ chip which is cleaner.
This is very similar to the MSI domains of the pSeries platform. The
MSI allocator is directly handled under the Linux PHB in the
in-the-middle "PNV-MSI" domain.
Only the XIVE (P9/P10) parent domain is supported for now. Support for
XICS will come later.
powerpc/pseries/pci: Add a msi_free() handler to clear XIVE data
The MSI domain clears the IRQ with msi_domain_free(), which calls
irq_domain_free_irqs_top(), which clears the handler data. This is a
problem for the XIVE controller since we need to unmap MMIO pages and
free a specific XIVE structure.
The 'msi_free()' handler is called before irq_domain_free_irqs_top()
when the handler data is still available. Use that to clear the XIVE
controller data.
powerpc/xive: Remove irqd_is_started() check when setting the affinity
In the early days of XIVE support, commit b8c61a0f1980 ("powerpc/xive:
Ensure active irqd when setting affinity") tried to fix an issue
related to interrupt migration. If the root cause was related to CPU
unplug, it should have been fixed and there is no reason to keep the
irqd_is_started() check. This test is also breaking affinity setting
of MSIs which can set before starting the associated IRQ.
Two IRQ domains are added on top of default machine IRQ domain.
First, the top level "pSeries-PCI-MSI" domain deals with the MSI
specificities. In this domain, the HW IRQ numbers are generated by the
PCI MSI layer, they compose a unique ID for an MSI source with the PCI
device identifier and the MSI vector number.
These numbers can be quite large on a pSeries machine running under
the IBM Hypervisor and /sys/kernel/irq/ and /proc/interrupts will
require small fixes to show them correctly.
Second domain is the in-the-middle "pSeries-MSI" domain which acts as
a proxy between the PCI MSI subsystem and the machine IRQ subsystem.
It usually allocate the MSI vector numbers but, on pSeries machines,
this is done by the RTAS FW and RTAS returns IRQ numbers in the IRQ
number space of the machine. This is why the in-the-middle "pSeries-MSI"
domain has the same HW IRQ numbers as its parent domain.
Only the XIVE (P9/P10) parent domain is supported for now. We still
need to add support for IRQ domain hierarchy under XICS.
powerpc/xive: Add support for IRQ domain hierarchy
This adds handlers to allocate/free IRQs in a domain hierarchy. We
could try to use xive_irq_domain_map() in xive_irq_domain_alloc() but
we rely on xive_irq_alloc_data() to set the IRQ handler data and
duplicating the code is simpler.
xive_irq_free_data() needs to be called when IRQ are freed to clear
the MMIO mappings and free the XIVE handler data, xive_irq_data
structure. This is going to be a problem with MSI domains which we
will address later.
This splits the routine setting the MSIs in two parts: allocation of
MSIs for the PCI device at the FW level (RTAS) and the actual mapping
and activation of the IRQs.
rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() will serve as a handler for the PCI MSI domain.
KVM: PPC: Use arch_get_random_seed_long instead of powernv variant
The powernv_get_random_long() does not work in nested KVM (which is
pseries) and produces a crash when accessing in_be64(rng->regs) in
powernv_get_random_long().
This replaces powernv_get_random_long with the ppc_md machine hook
wrapper.

The behavior remains unchanged.
powerpc/pseries: Prevent free CPU ids being reused on another node
When a CPU is hot added, the CPU ids are taken from the available mask
from the lower possible set. If that set of values was previously used
for a CPU attached to a different node, it appears to an application as
if these CPUs have migrated from one node to another node which is not
expected.
To prevent this, it is needed to record the CPU ids used for each node
and to not reuse them on another node. However, to prevent CPU hot plug
to fail, in the case the CPU ids is starved on a node, the capability to
reuse other nodes’ free CPU ids is kept. A warning is displayed in such
a case to warn the user.
A new CPU bit mask (node_recorded_ids_map) is introduced for each
possible node. It is populated with the CPU onlined at boot time, and
then when a CPU is hot plugged to a node. The bits in that mask remain
when the CPU is hot unplugged, to remind this CPU ids have been used for
this node.
If no id set was found, a retry is made without removing the ids used on
the other nodes to try reusing them. This is the way ids have been
allocated prior to this patch.
The effect of this patch can be seen by removing and adding CPUs using
the Qemu monitor. In the following case, the first CPU from the node 2
is removed, then the first one from the node 1 is removed too. Later,
the first CPU of the node 2 is added back. Without that patch, the
kernel will number these CPUs using the first CPU ids available which
are the ones freed when removing the second CPU of the node 0. This
leads to the CPU ids 16-23 to move from the node 1 to the node 2. With
the patch applied, the CPU ids 32-39 are used since they are the lowest
free ones which have not been used on another node.

pseries/drmem: update LMBs after LPM
After a LPM, the device tree node ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory may be
updated by the hypervisor in the case the NUMA topology of the LPAR's
memory is updated.
This is handled by the kernel, but the memory's node is not updated because
there is no way to move a memory block between nodes from the Linux kernel
point of view.
If later a memory block is added or removed, drmem_update_dt() is called
and it is overwriting the DT node ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory to
match the added or removed LMB. But the LMB's associativity node has not
been updated after the DT node update and thus the node is overwritten by
the Linux's topology instead of the hypervisor one.
Introduce a hook called when the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node is
updated to force an update of the LMB's associativity. However, ignore the
call to that hook when the update has been triggered by drmem_update_dt().
Because, in that case, the LMB tree has been used to set the DT property

When a LPAR is migratable, we should consider the maximum possible NUMA
node instead of the number of NUMA nodes from the actual system.
The DT property 'ibm,current-associativity-domains' defines the maximum
number of nodes the LPAR can see when running on that box. But if the
LPAR is being migrated on another box, it may see up to the nodes
defined by 'ibm,max-associativity-domains'. So if a LPAR is migratable,
that value should be used.
Unfortunately, there is no easy way to know if an LPAR is migratable or
not. The hypervisor exports the property 'ibm,migratable-partition' in
the case it set to migrate partition, but that would not mean that the
current partition is migratable.
Without this patch, when a LPAR is started on a 2 node box and then
migrated to a 3 node box, the hypervisor may spread the LPAR's CPUs on
the 3rd node. In that case if a CPU from that 3rd node is added to the
LPAR, it will be wrongly assigned to the node because the kernel has
been set to use up to 2 nodes (the configuration of the departure node).

in order to help report the correct groups of threads sharing these caches
on big-core systems where groups of threads within a core can share
different sets of caches.
Now that powerpc/cacheinfo is aware of "ibm,thread-groups" property,
cache->shared_cpu_map contains the correct set of thread-siblings
sharing the cache. Hence we no longer need the functions
get_shared_cpu_map(). This patch removes this function. We also remove
the helper function index_dir_to_cpu() which was only called by
get_shared_cpu_map().
With these functions removed, we can still see the correct
cache-sibling map/list for L1 and L2 caches on systems with L1 and L2
caches distributed among groups of threads in a core.
With this patch, on a SMT8 POWER10 system where the L1 and L2 caches
are split between the two groups of threads in a core, for CPUs 8,9,
the L1-Data, L1-Instruction, L2, L3 cache CPU sibling list is as
follows:
powerpc/cacheinfo: Lookup cache by dt node and thread-group id
Currently the cacheinfo code on powerpc indexes the "cache" objects
(modelling the L1/L2/L3 caches) where the key is device-tree node
corresponding to that cache. On some of the POWER server platforms
thread-groups within the core share different sets of caches (Eg: On
SMT8 POWER9 systems, threads 0,2,4,6 of a core share L1 cache and
threads 1,3,5,7 of the same core share another L1 cache). On such
platforms, there is a single device-tree node corresponding to that
cache and the cache-configuration within the threads of the core is
indicated via "ibm,thread-groups" device-tree property.
Since the current code is not aware of the "ibm,thread-groups"
property, on the aforementoined systems, cacheinfo code still treats
all the threads in the core to be sharing the cache because of the
single device-tree node (In the earlier example, the cacheinfo code
would says CPUs 0-7 share L1 cache).
In this patch, we make the powerpc cacheinfo code aware of the
"ibm,thread-groups" property. We indexe the "cache" objects by the
key-pair (device-tree node, thread-group id). For any CPUX, for a
given level of cache, the thread-group id is defined to be the first
CPU in the "ibm,thread-groups" cache-group containing CPUX. For levels
of cache which are not represented in "ibm,thread-groups" property,
the thread-group id is -1.

cpuidle: pseries: Do not cap the CEDE0 latency in fixup_cede0_latency()
Currently in fixup_cede0_latency() code, we perform the fixup the
CEDE(0) exit latency value only if minimum advertized extended CEDE
latency values are less than 10us. This was done so as to not break
the expected behaviour on POWER8 platforms where the advertised
latency was higher than the default 10us, which would delay the SMT
folding on the core.
However, after the earlier patch "cpuidle/pseries: Fixup CEDE0 latency
only for POWER10 onwards", we can be sure that the fixup of CEDE0
latency is going to happen only from POWER10 onwards. Hence
unconditionally use the minimum exit latency provided by the platform.
cpuidle: pseries: Fixup CEDE0 latency only for POWER10 onwards
Commit 59777e5341bb ("cpuidle: pseries: Fixup exit latency for
CEDE(0)") sets the exit latency of CEDE(0) based on the latency values
of the Extended CEDE states advertised by the platform
On POWER9 LPARs, the firmwares advertise a very low value of 2us for
CEDE1 exit latency on a Dedicated LPAR. The latency advertized by the
PHYP hypervisor corresponds to the latency required to wakeup from the
underlying hardware idle state. However the wakeup latency from the
LPAR perspective should include
1. The time taken to transition the CPU from the Hypervisor into the
LPAR post wakeup from platform idle state
2. Time taken to send the IPI from the source CPU (waker) to the idle
target CPU (wakee).
1. can be measured via timer idle test, where we queue a timer, say
for 1ms, and enter the CEDE state. When the timer fires, in the timer
handler we compute how much extra timer over the expected 1ms have we
consumed. On a a POWER9 LPAR the numbers are
CEDE latency measured using a timer (numbers in ns)
N Min Median Avg 90%ile 99%ile Max Stddev
400 2601 5677 5668.74 5917 6413 9299 455.01
1. and 2. combined can be determined by an IPI latency test where we
send an IPI to an idle CPU and in the handler compute the time
difference between when the IPI was sent and when the handler ran. We
see the following numbers on POWER9 LPAR.
CEDE latency measured using an IPI (numbers in ns)
N Min Median Avg 90%ile 99%ile Max Stddev
400 711 7564 7369.43 8559 9514 9698 1200.01
Suppose, we consider the 99th percentile latency value measured using
the IPI to be the wakeup latency, the value would be 9.5us This is in
the ballpark of the default value of 10us.
Hence, use the exit latency of CEDE(0) based on the latency values
advertized by platform only from POWER10 onwards. The values
advertized on POWER10 platforms is more realistic and informed by the
latency measurements. For earlier platforms stick to the default value
of 10us. The fix was suggested by Michael Ellerman.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV Nested: Sanitise H_ENTER_NESTED TM state
The H_ENTER_NESTED hypercall is handled by the L0, and it is a request
by the L1 to switch the context of the vCPU over to that of its L2
guest, and return with an interrupt indication. The L1 is responsible
for switching some registers to guest context, and the L0 switches
others (including all the hypervisor privileged state).
If the L2 MSR has TM active, then the L1 is responsible for
recheckpointing the L2 TM state. Then the L1 exits to L0 via the
H_ENTER_NESTED hcall, and the L0 saves the TM state as part of the exit,
and then it recheckpoints the TM state as part of the nested entry and
finally HRFIDs into the L2 with TM active MSR. Not efficient, but about
the simplest approach for something that's horrendously complicated.
Problems arise if the L1 exits to the L0 with a TM state which does not
match the L2 TM state being requested. For example if the L1 is
transactional but the L2 MSR is non-transactional, or vice versa. The
L0's HRFID can take a TM Bad Thing interrupt and crash.
Fix this by disallowing H_ENTER_NESTED in TM[T] state entirely, and then
ensuring that if the L1 is suspended then the L2 must have TM active,
and if the L1 is not suspended then the L2 must not have TM active.

KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix H_RTAS rets buffer overflow
The kvmppc_rtas_hcall() sets the host rtas_args.rets pointer based on
the rtas_args.nargs that was provided by the guest. That guest nargs
value is not range checked, so the guest can cause the host rets pointer
to be pointed outside the args array. The individual rtas function
handlers check the nargs and nrets values to ensure they are correct,
but if they are not, the handlers store a -3 (0xfffffffd) failure
indication in rets[0] which corrupts host memory.
Fix this by testing up front whether the guest supplied nargs and nret
would exceed the array size, and fail the hcall directly without storing
a failure indication to rets[0].
Also expand on a comment about why we kill the guest and try not to
return errors directly if we have a valid rets[0] pointer.

This can be found in build log for first clean build which shows

But in second build(incremental build), the WARNING disappeared and the
module version becomes valid CRC and make someone who want to change
modules without updating kernel image can't insert their modules.
The problematic code is
+ $(foreach n, $(filter-out FORCE,$^), \
+ $(if $(wildcard $(n).symversions), \
+ ; cat $(n).symversions >> $@.symversions))
`foreach n` shows nothing to `cat` into $(n).symversions because
`if $(wildcard $(n).symversions)` return nothing, but actually
they do exist during this line was executed.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 111 Jun 13 19:10 fs/notify/fsnotify.o.symversions
The reason is the $(n).symversions are generated at runtime, but
Makefile wildcard function expends and checks the file exist or not
during parsing the Makefile.
Thus fix this by use `test` shell command to check the file
existence in runtime.

It's not clear why, but it causes unexplained problems in entirely
unrelated xfs code. The most likely explanation is some slab
corruption, possibly triggered due to CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. See [1].
It ends up having a few other problems too, like build errors on
arch/arc, and Geert reporting it using much more memory on m68k [3] (it
probably does so elsewhere too, but it is probably just more noticeable
on m68k).
The architecture issues (both build and memory use) are likely just
because this change effectively force-enabled STACKDEPOT (along with a
very bad default value for the stackdepot hash size). But together with
the xfs issue, this all smells like "this commit was not ready" to me.
