In commit e6a6928c ("of/fdt: Convert FDT functions to use libfdt") (Apr 2014), the generic flat device tree code dropped support for flat device tree's older than version 0x10 (16). We still have code in our CPU scanning to cope with flat device tree versions earlier than 2, which can now never trigger, so drop it. Signed-off-by:

Add a test of the relative branch patching logic in the alternate section feature fixup code. This tests that if we branch past the last instruction of the alternate section, the branch is not patched. That's because the assembler will have created a branch that already points to the first instruction after the patched section, which is correct and needs no further patching. Signed-off-by: -

We want this to remain the last test (because it's disabled by default), so give it a non-numbered name so we don't have to renumber it when adding new tests before it. Signed-off-by: -

The code patching code has always been a bit confused about whether it's best to use void *, unsigned int *, char *, etc. to point to instructions. In fact in the feature fixups tests we use both unsigned int[] and u8[] in different places. Unfortunately the tests that use unsigned int[] calculate the size of the code blocks using subtraction of those unsigned int pointers, and then pass the result to memcmp(). This means we're only comparing 1/4 of the bytes we need to, because we need to multiply by sizeof(unsigned int) to get the number of *bytes*. The result is that the tests do all the patching and then only compare some of the resulting code, so patching bugs that only effect that last 3/4 of the code could slip through undetected. It turns out that hasn't been happening, although one test had a bad expected case (see previous commit). Fix it for now by multiplying the size by 4 in the affected functions.

The expected case for this test was wrong, the source of the alternate code sequence is: FTR_SECTION_ELSE 2: or 2,2,2 PPC_LCMPI r3,1 beq 3f blt 2b b 3f b 1b ALT_FTR_SECTION_END(0, 1) 3: or 1,1,1 or 2,2,2 4: or 3,3,3 So when it's patched the '3' label should still be on the 'or 1,1,1', and the 4 label is irrelevant and can be removed.

it had always been pointless - compat_sys_select() sign-extends the first argument just fine on its own. Signed-off-by:

Michael Ellerman authored
Currently the select system call is wired up with the SYSX_SPU() macro. The SYSX_SPU() is not handled by systbl_chk.c, which means the syscall number for select is not checked. That hides the fact that the syscall number for select is actually __NR__newselect not __NR_select. In a following patch we'd like to drop ppc32_select() which means select will become a regular COMPAT_SYS_SPU() syscall. But COMPAT_SYS_SPU() can't deal with the fact that the syscall number is actually __NR__newselect. We also can't just redefine __NR_select because that's still used for the old select call. So add a new COMPAT_NEW_SPU() that does the same thing as COMPAT_SYS_SPU() except it encodes that we're using the new number. Signed-off-by: -

The "Power Architecture 64-Bit ELF V2 ABI" says in section 2.3.2.3: [...] There are several rules that must be adhered to in order to ensure reliable and consistent call chain backtracing: * Before a function calls any other function, it shall establish its own stack frame, whose size shall be a multiple of 16 bytes. – In instances where a function’s prologue creates a stack frame, the back-chain word of the stack frame shall be updated atomically with the value of the stack pointer (r1) when a back chain is implemented. (This must be supported as default by all ELF V2 ABI-compliant environments.) [...] – The function shall save the link register that contains its return address in the LR save doubleword of its caller’s stack frame before calling another function. To me this sounds like the equivalent of HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. This patch may be unneccessarily limited to ppc64le, but OTOH the only user of this flag so far is livepatching, which is only implemented on PPCs with 64-LE, a.k.a. ELF ABI v2. Feel free to add other ppc variants, but so far only ppc64le got tested. This change also implements save_stack_trace_tsk_reliable() for ppc64le that checks for the above conditions, where possible.

Provide timebase and timebase of last heartbeat in watchdog lockup messages. Also provide a stack trace of when a CPU becomes un-stuck, which can be useful -- it could be where irqs are re-enabled, so it may be the end of the critical section which is responsible for the latency which is useful information.

The watchdog heartbeat timestamp is updated when the local heartbeat timer fires (or touch_nmi_watchdog() is called). This is an interesting data point, so don't overwrite it when the soft-NMI interrupt detects a hard lockup. That code came from a pre- merge version to prevent hard lockup messages flood, but that's taken care of with the stuck CPU logic now, so there is no reason to update the heartbeat timestamp here.

This is not the case for the moment, but future releases of pHyp might need to introduce some synchronisation routines under the hood which would make the XIVE hcalls longer to complete.

The kexec_state KEXEC_STATE_IRQS_OFF barrier is reached by all secondary CPUs before the kexec_cpu_down() operation is called on secondaries. This can raise conflicts and provoque errors in the XIVE hcalls when XIVE is shutdown with H_INT_RESET on the primary CPU. To synchronize the kexec_cpu_down() operations and make sure the secondaries have completed their task before the primary starts doing the same, let's move the primary kexec_cpu_down() after the KEXEC_STATE_REAL_MODE barrier. This change of the ending sequence of kexec is mostly useful on the pseries platform but it impacts also the powernv, ps3 and 85xx platforms. powernv can be easily tested and fixed but some caution is required for the other two.

The hcall_exit() tracepoint has retval defined as unsigned long. That leads to humours results like: bash-3686 [009] d..2 854.134094: hcall_entry: opcode=24 bash-3686 [009] d..2 854.134095: hcall_exit: opcode=24 retval=18446744073709551609 It's normal for some hcalls to return negative values, displaying them as unsigned isn't very helpful. So change it to signed. bash-3711 [001] d..2 471.691008: hcall_entry: opcode=24 bash-3711 [001] d..2 471.691008: hcall_exit: opcode=24 retval=-7 Which can be more easily compared to H_NOT_FOUND in hvcall.h Signed-off-by:

This commit was a stop-gap to prevent crashes on hotunplug, caused by the mismatch between the 1G mappings used for the linear mapping and the memory block size. Those issues are now resolved because we split the linear mapping at hotunplug time if necessary, as implemented in commit 4dd5f8a9 ("powerpc/mm/radix: Split linear mapping on hot-unplug").

Unregister fadump on kexec down path otherwise the fadump registration in new kexec-ed kernel complains that fadump is already registered. This makes new kernel to continue using fadump registered by previous kernel which may lead to invalid vmcore generation. Hence this patch fixes this issue by un-registering fadump in fadump_cleanup() which is called during kexec path so that new kernel can register fadump with new valid values.

FADump capture kernel boots in restricted memory environment preserving the context of previous kernel to save vmcore. Supporting hugepages in such environment makes things unnecessarily complicated, as hugepages need memory set aside for them. This means most of the capture kernel's memory is used in supporting hugepages. In most cases, this results in out-of-memory issues while booting FADump capture kernel. But hugepages are not of much use in capture kernel whose only job is to save vmcore. So, disabling hugepages support, when fadump is active, is a reliable solution for the out of memory issues. Introducing a flag variable to disable HugeTLB support when fadump is active. Signed-off-by:

The second kernel, during early boot after the crash, reserves rest of the memory above boot memory size to make sure it does not touch any of the dump memory area. It uses memblock_reserve() that reserves the specified memory region irrespective of memory holes present within that region. There are chances where previous kernel would have hot removed some of its memory leaving memory holes behind. In such cases fadump kernel reports incorrect number of reserved pages through arch_reserved_kernel_pages() hook causing kernel to hang or panic. Fix this by excluding memory holes while reserving rest of the memory above boot memory size during second kernel boot after crash. Signed-off-by:

I no longer have a functional version of this board for even the most basic sanity boot testing, and they have not been available for purchase for quite some years now. There is no point in adding a burden to testing coverage that does walk all the possible defconfigs, so with all the above in mind, it makes sense to remove it. Of course it will remain in the git history for anyone who happens to stumble on one and wants to tinker with it. Signed-off-by:

With -mprofile-kernel, we always save the full register state in ftrace_caller(). While this works, this is inefficient if we're not interested in the register state, such as when we're using the function tracer. Rename the existing ftrace_caller() as ftrace_regs_caller() and provide a simpler implementation for ftrace_caller() that is used when registers are not required to be saved. Signed-off-by:

For R_PPC64_REL24 relocations, we suppress emitting instructions for TOC load/restore in the relocation stub if the relocation is for _mcount() call when using -mprofile-kernel ABI. To detect this, we check if the preceding instructions are per the standard set of instructions emitted by gcc: either the two instruction sequence of 'mflr r0; std r0,16(r1)', or the more optimized variant of a single 'mflr r0'. This is not sufficient since nothing prevents users from hand coding sequences involving a 'mflr r0' followed by a 'bl'. For removing the toc save instruction from the stub, we additionally check if the symbol is "_mcount". Add the same check here as well. Also rename is_early_mcount_callsite() to is_mprofile_mcount_callsite() since that is what is being checked. The use of "early" is misleading since there is nothing involving this function that qualifies as early. Fixes: 15308664 ("powerpc/ftrace: Add support for -mprofile-kernel ftrace ABI") Signed-off-by:
