This adds support for p7IOC (and possibly other IODA v1 IO Hubs) using OPAL v2 interfaces. We completely take over resource assignment and assign them using an algorithm that hands out device BARs in a way that makes them fit in individual segments of the M32 window of the bridge, which enables us to assign individual PEs to devices and functions. The current implementation gives out a PE per functions on PCIe, and a PE for the entire bridge for PCIe to PCI-X bridges. This can be adjusted / fine tuned later. We also setup DMA resources (32-bit only for now) and MSIs (both 32-bit and 64-bit MSI are supported). The DMA allocation tries to divide the available 256M segments of the 32-bit DMA address space "fairly" among PEs. This is done using a "weight" heuristic which assigns less value to things like OHCI USB controllers than, for example SCSI RAID controllers. This algorithm will probably want some fine tuning for specific devices or device types. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

When PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC is set, we used to clear all bus resources at the beginning of survey and re-allocate them later. This changes it so instead, during early fixup, we mark all resources as IORESOURCE_UNSET and move them down to be 0-based. Later, if bus resources are still unset at the beginning of the survey, then we clear them. This shouldn't impact the re-assignment case on 4xx, but will enable us to have the platform do some custom resource assignment before the survey, by clearing individual resources IORESOURCE_UNSET bit. Also limits the clutter in the kernel log from fixup when re-assigning since we don't care about the offset applied to the BAR values in this case.

Some platforms need to perform resource allocation using a custom algorithm due to HW constraints, or may want to tweak things globally below a host bridge. For example OPAL support for IODA will need to perform a resource allocation pass that applies IODA specific segmentation constraints to MMIO which cannot be done simply using the kernel generic resource management code.

The RTAS firmware flash update is conducted using an RTAS call that is serialized by lock_rtas() which uses spin_lock. While the flash is in progress, rtasd performs scan for any RTAS events that are generated by the system. rtasd keeps scanning for the RTAS events generated on the machine. This is performed via workqueue mechanism. The rtas_event_scan() also uses an RTAS call to scan the events, eventually trying to acquire the spin_lock before issuing the request. The flash update takes a while to complete and during this time, any other RTAS call has to wait. In this case, rtas_event_scan() waits for a long time on the spin_lock resulting in a soft lockup. Fix: Just before the flash update is performed, the queued rtas_event_scan() work item is cancelled from the work queue so that there is no other RTAS call issued while the flash is in progress. After the flash completes, the system reboots and the rtas_event_scan() is rescheduled.

This patch add the Chroma platform to WSP/PowerEN, which is a PCIe card (a defconfig is included). The card includes an H8 service processor that is used to manage the card. The H8 is connected over the second serial UART on the PowerEN chip so this patch includes a simple 16550 driver to enable communication, mostly for "power off" and "rebooting". This patch also includes a, WSP specific, "halt" method that will shut of all A2 cores but still leave power on at the chip level. This is desirable, especially if you wish to interrogate the chip with a hardware probe after the halt.

This patch adds a fault handler that responds to illegal Coprocessor types. Currently all CTs are treated and illegal. There are two ways to report the fault back to the application. If the application used the record form ("icswx.") then the architected "reject" is emulated. If the application did not used the record form ("icswx") then it is selectable by config whether the failure is silent (as architected) or a SIGILL is generated. In all cases pr_warn() is used to log the bad CT. Signed-off-by: Jimi Xenidis <jimix@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Some pseries IOMMUs cache TCEs but don't snoop when the TCEs are changed in memory, hence we need manually invalidate in software. This adds code to do the invalidate. It keys off a device tree property to say where the to do the MMIO for the invalidate and some information on what the format of the invalidate including some magic routing info. it_busno get overloaded with this magic routing info and it_index with the MMIO address for the invalidate command. This then gets hooked into the building and freeing of TCEs. This is only useful on bare metal pseries. pHyp takes care of this when virtualised. Based on patch from Milton with cleanups from Mikey.

decrementer_check_overflow is called from arch_local_irq_restore so we want to make it as light weight as possible. As such, turn decrementer_check_overflow into an inline function. To avoid a circular mess of includes, separate out the two components of struct decrementer_clock and keep the struct clock_event_device part local to time.c. The fast path improves from: arch_local_irq_restore 0: mflr r0 4: std r0,16(r1) 8: stdu r1,-112(r1) c: stb r3,578(r13) 10: cmpdi cr7,r3,0 14: beq- cr7,24 <.arch_local_irq_restore+0x24> ... 24: addi r1,r1,112 28: ld r0,16(r1) 2c: mtlr r0 30: blr to: arch_local_irq_restore 0: std r30,-16(r1) 4: ld r30,0(r2) 8: stb r3,578(r13) c: cmpdi cr7,r3,0 10: beq- cr7,6c <.arch_local_irq_restore+0x6c> ... 6c: ld r30,-16(r1) 70: blr Unfortunately we still setup a local TOC (due to -mminimal-toc).

When re-enabling interrupts we have code to handle edge sensitive decrementers by resetting the decrementer to 1 whenever it is negative. If interrupts were disabled long enough that the decrementer wrapped to positive we do nothing. This means interrupts can be delayed for a long time until it finally goes negative again. While we hope interrupts are never be disabled long enough for the decrementer to go positive, we have a very good test team that can drive any kernel into the ground. The softlockup data we get back from these fails could be seconds in the future, completely missing the cause of the lockup. We already keep track of the timebase of the next event so use that to work out if we should trigger a decrementer exception.

-
Michael S. Tsirkin authored
virtio pci device reset actually just does an I/O write, which in PCI is really posted, that is it can complete on CPU before the device has received it. Further, interrupts might have been pending on another CPU, so device callback might get invoked after reset. This conflicts with how drivers use reset, which is typically: reset unregister a callback running after reset completed can race with unregister, potentially leading to use after free bugs. Fix by flushing out the write, and flushing pending interrupts. This assumes that device is never reset from its vq/config callbacks, or in parallel with being added/removed, document this assumption. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

-
Tyler Hicks authored
From mhalcrow's original commit message: Characters with ASCII values greater than the size of filename_rev_map[] are valid filename characters. ecryptfs_decode_from_filename() will access kernel memory beyond that array, and ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() will then decrypt those characters. The attacker, using the FNEK of the crafted file, can then re-encrypt the characters to reveal the kernel memory past the end of the filename_rev_map[] array. I expect low security impact since this array is statically allocated in the text area, and the amount of memory past the array that is accessible is limited by the largest possible ASCII filename character. This patch solves the issue reported by mhalcrow but with an implementation suggested by Linus to simply extend the length of filename_rev_map[] to 256. Characters greater than 0x7A are mapped to 0x00, which is how invalid characters less than 0x7A were previously being handled.

Dirty pages weren't being written back when an mmap'ed eCryptfs file was closed before the mapping was unmapped. Since f_ops->flush() is not called by the munmap() path, the lower file was simply being released.

The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written to the lower file. This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory. https://launchpad.net/bugs/813146Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
