      powerpc/pseries: Remove unused r0 in the hcall tracing code · dfb5f8cb
      Athira Rajeev authored 
      In the plpar_hcall trace code, currently we use r0
to store the value of r4. But this value is not
used subsequently in the code. Hence remove this unused
save to r0 in plpar_hcall and plpar_hcall9

      powerpc/pseries: Fix STK_PARAM access in the hcall tracing code · 3b678768
      Athira Rajeev authored 
      In powerpc pseries system, below behaviour is observed while
enabling tracing on hcall:
  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
  # cat events/powerpc/hcall_exit/enable
  0
  # echo 1 > events/powerpc/hcall_exit/enable

  # ls
  -bash: fork: Bad address

Above is from power9 lpar with latest kernel. Past this, softlockup
is observed. Initially while attempting via perf_event_open to
use "PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT", kernel panic was observed.

perf config used:
================
  memset(&pe[1],0,sizeof(struct perf_event_attr));
  pe[1].type=PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT;

git bisect tracked this down to below commit:
'commit baa49d81 ("powerpc/pseries: hvcall stack frame overhead")'

This commit changed STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD (112 ) to
STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE (32 ) since 32 bytes is the minimum size
for ELFv2 stack. With the latest kernel, when running on ELFv2,
STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE is used to allocate stack size.

During plpar_hcall_trace, first call is made to HCALL_INST_PRECALL
which saves the registers and allocates new stack frame. In the
plpar_hcall_trace code, STK_PARAM is accessed at two places.
  1. To save r4: std     r4,STK_PARAM(R4)(r1)
  2. To access r4 back: ld      r12,STK_PARAM(R4)(r1)

HCALL_INST_PRECALL precall allocates a new stack frame. So all
the stack parameter access after the precall, needs to be accessed
with +STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE. So the store instruction should be:
  std     r4,STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE+STK_PARAM(R4)(r1)

If the "std" is not updated with STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE, we will
end up with overwriting stack contents and cause corruption.
But instead of updating 'std', we can instead remove it since
HCALL_INST_PRECALL already saves it to the correct location.

similarly load instruction should be:
  ld      r12,STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE+STK_PARAM(R4)(r1)

Fix the load instruction to correctly access the stack parameter
with +STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and remove the store of r4 since the
precall saves it correctly.

      vm: fix move_vma() memory accounting being off · 3cec5049
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit 408579cd ("mm: Update do_vmi_align_munmap() return
semantics") seems to have updated one of the callers of do_vmi_munmap()
incorrectly: it used to check for the error case (which didn't
change: negative means error).

That commit changed the check to the success case (which did change:
before that commit, 0 was success, and 1 was "success and lock
downgraded".  After the change, it's always 0 for success, and the lock
will have been released if requested).

This didn't change any actual VM behavior _except_ for memory accounting
when 'VM_ACCOUNT' was set on the vma.  Which made the wrong return value
test fairly subtle, since everything continues to work.

Or rather - it continues to work but the "Committed memory" accounting
goes all wonky (Committed_AS value in /proc/meminfo), and depending on
settings that then causes problems much much later as the VM relies on
bogus statistics for its heuristics.

Revert that one line of the change back to the original logic.

      ata: libata-core: fetch sense data for successful commands iff CDL enabled · 5e35a9ac
      Niklas Cassel authored 
      Currently, we fetch sense data for a _successful_ command if either:
1) Command was NCQ and ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED flag set (flag
   ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED will only be set if the Successful NCQ command
   sense data supported bit is set); or
2) Command was non-NCQ and regular sense data reporting is enabled.

This means that case 2) will trigger for a non-NCQ command which has
ATA_SENSE bit set, regardless if CDL is enabled or not.

This decision was by design. If the device reports that it has sense data
available, it makes sense to fetch that sense data, since the sk/asc/ascq
could be important information regardless if CDL is enabled or not.

However, the fetching of sense data for a successful command is done via
ATA EH. Considering how intricate the ATA EH is, we really do not want to
invoke ATA EH unless absolutely needed.

Before commit 18bd7718 ("scsi: ata: libata: Handle completion of CDL
commands using policy 0xD") we never fetched sense data for successful
commands.

In order to not invoke the ATA EH unless absolutely necessary, even if the
device claims support for sense data reporting, only fetch sense data for
successful (NCQ and non-NCQ commands) commands that are using CDL.

[Damien] Modified the check to test the qc flag ATA_QCFLAG_HAS_CDL
instead of the device support for CDL, which is implied for commands
using CDL.

      ata: libata-eh: do not thaw the port twice in ata_eh_reset() · 7a3bc2b3
      Niklas Cassel authored 
      commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") added
a workaround that broke the retry mechanism in ATA EH.

Tejun himself suggested to remove this workaround when it was identified
to cause additional problems:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426135027.GI878@htj.dyndns.org/

He even said:
"Hmm... it seems I wasn't thinking straight when I added that work around."
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426155229.GM878@htj.dyndns.org/

While removing the workaround solved the issue, however, the workaround was
kept to avoid "spurious hotplug events during reset", and instead another
workaround was added on top of the existing workaround in commit
8c56cacc ("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()").

Because these IRQs happened when the port was frozen, we know that they
were actually a side effect of PxIS and IS.IPS(x) not being cleared before
the COMRESET. This is now done in commit 94152042eaa9 ("ata: libahci: clear
pending interrupt status"), so these workarounds can now be removed.

Since commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") has
now been reverted, the ATA EH retry mechanism is functional again, so there
is once again no need to thaw the port more than once in ata_eh_reset().

This reverts "the workaround on top of the workaround" introduced in commit
8c56cacc ("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()").

      ata: libata-eh: do not clear ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING in ata_eh_reset() · 80cc944e
      Niklas Cassel authored 
      ata_scsi_port_error_handler() starts off by clearing ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING,
before calling ap->ops->error_handler() (without holding the ap->lock).

If an error IRQ is received while ap->ops->error_handler() is running,
the irq handler will set ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING.

Once ap->ops->error_handler() returns, ata_scsi_port_error_handler()
checks if ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is set, and if it is, another iteration
of ATA EH is performed.

The problem is that ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is not only cleared by
ata_scsi_port_error_handler(), it is also cleared by ata_eh_reset().

ata_eh_reset() is called by ap->ops->error_handler(). This additional
clearing done by ata_eh_reset() breaks the whole retry logic in
ata_scsi_port_error_handler(). Thus, if an error IRQ is received while
ap->ops->error_handler() is running, the port will currently remain
frozen and will never get re-enabled.

The additional clearing in ata_eh_reset() was introduced in commit
1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion").

Looking at the original error report:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=124765325828495&w=2

We can see the following happening:
[    1.074659] ata3: XXX port freeze
[    1.074700] ata3: XXX hardresetting link, stopping engine
[    1.074746] ata3: XXX flipping SControl

[    1.411471] ata3: XXX irq_stat=400040 CONN|PHY

[    1.420188] ata3: XXX port thawed
[    1.420234] ata3: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)

We are not supposed to be able to receive an error IRQ while the port is
frozen (PxIE is set to 0, i.e. all IRQs for the port are disabled).

AHCI 1.3.1 section 10.7.1.1 First Tier (IS Register) states:
"Each bit location can be thought of as reporting a '1' if the virtual
"interrupt line" for that port is indicating it wishes to generate an
interrupt. That is, if a port has one or more interrupt status bit set,
and the enables for those status bits are set, then this bit shall be set."

Additionally, AHCI state P:ComInit clearly shows that the state machine
will only jump to P:ComInitSetIS (which sets IS.IPS(x) to '1'), if PxIE.PCE
is set to '1'. In our case, PxIE is set to 0, so IS.IPS(x) won't get set.

So IS.IPS(x) only gets set if PxIS and PxIE is set.

AHCI 1.3.1 section 10.7.1.1 First Tier (IS Register) also states:
"The bits in this register are read/write clear. It is set by the level of
the virtual interrupt line being a set, and cleared by a write of '1' from
the software."

So if IS.IPS(x) is set, you need to explicitly clear it by writing a 1 to
IS.IPS(x) for that port.

Since PxIE is cleared, the only way to get an interrupt while the port is
frozen, is if IS.IPS(x) is set, and the only way IS.IPS(x) can be set when
the port is frozen, is if it was set before the port was frozen.

However, since commit 737dd811 ("ata: libahci: clear pending interrupt
status"), we clear both PxIS and IS.IPS(x) after freezing the port, but
before the COMRESET, so the problem that commit 1e641060 ("libata:
clear eh_info on reset completion") fixed can no longer happen.

Thus, revert commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset
completion"), so that the retry logic in ata_scsi_port_error_handler()
works once again. (The retry logic is still needed, since we can still
get an error IRQ _after_ the port has been thawed, but before
ata_scsi_port_error_handler() takes the ap->lock in order to check
if ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is set.)
