This works around a hardware bug in "Nimbus" POWER9 DD2.2 processors, where the contents of the TEXASR can get corrupted while a thread is in fake suspend state. The workaround is for the instruction emulation code to use the value saved at the most recent guest exit in real suspend mode. We achieve this by simply not saving the TEXASR into the vcpu struct on an exit in fake suspend state. We also have to take care to set the orig_texasr field only on guest exit in real suspend state. This also means that on guest entry in fake suspend state, TEXASR will be restored to the value it had on the last exit in real suspend state, effectively counteracting any hardware-caused corruption. This works because TEXASR may not be written in suspend state. With this, the guest might see the wrong values in TEXASR if it reads it while in suspend state, but will see the correct value in non-transactional state (e.g. after a treclaim), and treclaim will work correctly. With this workaround, the code will actually run slightly faster, and will operate correctly on systems without the TEXASR bug (since TEXASR may not be written in suspend state, and is only changed by failure recording, which will have already been done before we get into fake suspend state). Therefore these changes are not made subject to a CPU feature bit. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This works around a hardware bug in "Nimbus" POWER9 DD2.2 processors, where a treclaim performed in fake suspend mode can cause subsequent reads from the XER register to return inconsistent values for the SO (summary overflow) bit. The inconsistent SO bit state can potentially be observed on any thread in the core. We have to do the treclaim because that is the only way to get the thread out of suspend state (fake or real) and into non-transactional state. The workaround for the bug is to force the core into SMT4 mode before doing the treclaim. This patch adds the code to do that, conditional on the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit.

POWER9 has hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration (changes to hardware SMT mode). Specifically, the core does not have enough storage to store a complete checkpoint of all the architected state for all four threads. The DD2.2 version of POWER9 includes hardware modifications designed to allow hypervisor software to implement workarounds for these problems. This patch implements those workarounds in KVM code so that KVM guests see a full, working transactional memory implementation. The problems center around the use of TM suspended state, where the CPU has a checkpointed state but execution is not transactional. The workaround is to implement a "fake suspend" state, which looks to the guest like suspended state but the CPU does not store a checkpoint. In this state, any instruction that would cause a transition to transactional state (rfid, rfebb, mtmsrd, tresume) or would use the checkpointed state (treclaim) causes a "soft patch" interrupt (vector 0x1500) to the hypervisor so that it can be emulated. The trechkpt instruction also causes a soft patch interrupt. On POWER9 DD2.2, we avoid returning to the guest in any state which would require a checkpoint to be present. The trechkpt in the guest entry path which would normally create that checkpoint is replaced by either a transition to fake suspend state, if the guest is in suspend state, or a rollback to the pre-transactional state if the guest is in transactional state. Fake suspend state is indicated by a flag in the PACA plus a new bit in the PSSCR. The new PSSCR bit is write-only and reads back as 0. On exit from the guest, if the guest is in fake suspend state, we still do the treclaim instruction as we would in real suspend state, in order to get into non-transactional state, but we do not save the resulting register state since there was no checkpoint. Emulation of the instructions that cause a softpatch interrupt is handled in two paths. If the guest is in real suspend mode, we call kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() to handle the cases where the guest is transitioning to transactional state. This is called before we do the treclaim in the guest exit path; because we haven't done treclaim, we can get back to the guest with the transaction still active. If the instruction is a case that kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() doesn't handle, or if the guest is in fake suspend state, then we proceed to do the complete guest exit path and subsequently call kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation() in host context with the MMU on. This handles all the cases including the cases that generate program interrupts (illegal instruction or TM Bad Thing) and facility unavailable interrupts. The emulation is reasonably straightforward and is mostly concerned with checking for exception conditions and updating the state of registers such as MSR and CR0. The treclaim emulation takes care to ensure that the TEXASR register gets updated as if it were the guest treclaim instruction that had done failure recording, not the treclaim done in hypervisor state in the guest exit path. With this, the KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM capability returns true (1) even if transactional memory is not available to host userspace.

POWER9 processors up to and including "Nimbus" v2.2 have hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration. One of these bugs has a workaround which is to get the core into SMT4 state temporarily. This workaround is only needed when running bare-metal. This patch provides a function which gets the core into SMT4 mode by preventing threads from going to a stop state, and waking up those which are already in a stop state. Once at least 3 threads are not in a stop state, the core will be in SMT4 and we can continue. To do this, we add a "dont_stop" flag to the paca to tell the thread not to go into a stop state. If this flag is set, power9_idle_stop() just returns immediately with a return value of 0. The pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function does the following: 1. Set the dont_stop flag for each thread in the core, except ourselves (in fact we use an atomic_inc() in case more than one thread is calling this function concurrently). 2. See how many threads are awake, indicated by their requested_psscr field in the paca being 0. If this is at least 3, skip to step 5. 3. Send a doorbell interrupt to each thread that was seen as being in a stop state in step 2. 4. Until at least 3 threads are awake, scan the threads to which we sent a doorbell interrupt and check if they are awake now. This relies on the following properties: - Once dont_stop is non-zero, requested_psccr can't go from zero to non-zero, except transiently (and without the thread doing stop). - requested_psscr being zero guarantees that the thread isn't in a state-losing stop state where thread reconfiguration could occur. - Doing stop with a PSSCR value of 0 won't be a state-losing stop and thus won't allow thread reconfiguration. - Once threads_per_core/2 + 1 (i.e. 3) threads are awake, the core must be in SMT4 mode, since SMT modes are powers of 2. This does add a sync to power9_idle_stop(), which is necessary to provide the correct ordering between setting requested_psscr and checking dont_stop. The overhead of the sync should be unnoticeable compared to the latency of going into and out of a stop state. Because some objected to incurring this extra latency on systems where the XER[SO] bug is not relevant, I have put the test in power9_idle_stop inside a feature section. This means that pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() WILL NOT WORK correctly on systems without the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit set, and will probably hang the system. In order to cater for uses where the caller has an operation that has to be done while the core is in SMT4, the core continues to be kept in SMT4 after pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function returns, until the pnv_power9_force_smt4_release() function is called. It undoes the effect of step 1 above and allows the other threads to go into a stop state. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This adds a CPU feature bit which is set for POWER9 "Nimbus" DD2.2 processors which will be used to enable the hypervisor to assist hardware with the handling of checkpointed register values while the CPU is in suspend state, in order to work around hardware bugs. The hardware assistance for these workarounds introduced a new hardware bug relating to the XER[SO] bit. We add a separate feature bit for this bug in case future chips fix it while still requiring the hypervisor assistance with suspend state. When the dt_cpu_ftrs subsystem is in use, the software assistance can be enabled using a "tm-suspend-hypervisor-assist" node in the device tree, and a "tm-suspend-xer-so-bug" node enables the workarounds for the XER[SO] bug. In the absence of such nodes, a quirk enables both for POWER9 "Nimbus" DD2.2 processors. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This moves all the CPU feature bits that are only used on 32-bit machines to the top 20 bits of the CPU feature word and arranges for them to be defined only in 32-bit builds. The features that are common to 32-bit and 64-bit machines are moved to bits 0-11 of the CPU feature word. This means that for 64-bit platforms, bits 44-63 can now be used for new features that only exist on 64-bit machines. (These bit numbers are counting from the right, i.e. the LSB is bit 0.) Because CPU_FTR_L3_DISABLE_NAP moved from the low 16 bits to the high 16 bits, we have to adjust some assembly code. Also, CPU_FTR_EMB_HV moved from the high 16 bits to the low 16 bits. Note that CPU_FTR_REAL_LE only applies to 64-bit chips, because only 64-bit chips (POWER6, 7, 8, 9) have a true little-endian mode that is a CPU execution mode as opposed to being a page attribute. With this we now have 20 free CPU feature bits on 64-bit machines. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

All PowerPC CPUs other than the original PPC601 have a timebase register rather than the "real-time clock" (RTC) register that the PPC601 (and the original POWER and POWER2 CPUs) had. Currently we have a CPU feature bit to indicate the presence of the timebase, but it makes more sense to use a bit to indicate the unusual situation rather than the common situation. This therefore defines a CPU_FTR_USE_RTC bit in place of the CPU_FTR_USE_TB bit, and arranges for it to be set on PPC601 systems.

except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP. With this, we finally get to the promised end result: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly).

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Second PPC KVM update for 4.16 Seven fixes that are either trivial or that address bugs that people are actually hitting. The main ones are: - Drop spinlocks before reading guest memory - Fix a bug causing corruption of VCPU state in PR KVM with preemption enabled - Make HPT resizing work on POWER9 - Add MMIO emulation for vector loads and stores, because guests now use these instructions in memcpy and similar routines.
