[ Upstream commit 271208ee5e335cb1ad280d22784940daf7ddf820 ]
Using memcpy() isn't safe when buf is identical to rtas_err_buf, which
can happen during boot before slab is up. Full context which may not
be obvious from the diff:
if (altbuf) {
buf = altbuf;
} else {
buf = rtas_err_buf;
if (slab_is_available())
buf = kmalloc(RTAS_ERROR_LOG_MAX, GFP_ATOMIC);
}
if (buf)
memcpy(buf, rtas_err_buf, RTAS_ERROR_LOG_MAX);
This was found by inspection and I'm not aware of it causing problems
in practice. It appears to have been introduced by commit
033ef338b6e0 ("powerpc: Merge rtas.c into arch/powerpc/kernel"); the
old ppc64 version of this code did not have this problem.
Use memmove() instead.

[ Upstream commit 836b5b9fcc8e09cea7e8a59a070349a00e818308 ]
Some RTAS functions that have work area parameters impose alignment
requirements on the work area passed to them by the OS. Examples
include:
- ibm,configure-connector
- ibm,update-nodes
- ibm,update-properties
4KB is the greatest alignment required by PAPR for such
buffers. rtas_data_buf used to have a __page_aligned attribute in the
arch/ppc64 days, but that was changed to __cacheline_aligned for
unknown reasons by commit 033ef338b6e0 ("powerpc: Merge rtas.c into
arch/powerpc/kernel"). That works out to 128-byte alignment
on ppc64, which isn't right.
This was found by inspection and I'm not aware of any real problems
caused by this. Either current RTAS implementations don't enforce the
alignment constraints, or rtas_data_buf is always being placed at a
4KB boundary by accident (or both, perhaps).
Use __aligned(SZ_4K) to ensure the rtas_data_buf has alignment
appropriate for all users.

[ Upstream commit 9bce6243848dfd0ff7c2be6e8d82ab9b1e6c7858 ]
The first symbol exports of RTAS functions and data came with the (now
removed) scanlog driver in 2003:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=f92e361842d5251e50562b09664082dcbd0548bb
At the time this was applied, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() was very new, and
the exports of rtas_call() etc have remained non-GPL. As new APIs have
been added to the RTAS subsystem, their symbol exports have followed
the convention set by existing code.
However, the historical evidence is that RTAS function exports have been
added over time only to satisfy the needs of in-kernel users, and these
clients must have fairly intimate knowledge of how the APIs work to use
them safely. No out of tree users are known, and future ones seem
unlikely.
Arguably the default for RTAS symbols should have become
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL once it was available. Let's make it so now, and
exceptions can be evaluated as needed.

[ Upstream commit ed2213bfb192ab51f09f12e9b49b5d482c6493f3 ]
rtas_os_term() is called during panic. Its behavior depends on a couple
of conditions in the /rtas node of the device tree, the traversal of
which entails locking and local IRQ state changes. If the kernel panics
while devtree_lock is held, rtas_os_term() as currently written could
hang.
Instead of discovering the relevant characteristics at panic time,
cache them in file-static variables at boot. Note the lookup for
"ibm,extended-os-term" is converted to of_property_read_bool() since it
is a boolean property, not an RTAS function token.

commit 7bc08056a6dabc3a1442216daf527edf61ac24b6 upstream.
Add a special case to block_rtas_call() to allow the ibm,platform-dump RTAS
call through the RTAS filter if the buffer address is 0.
According to PAPR, ibm,platform-dump is called with a null buffer address
to notify the platform firmware that processing of a particular dump is
finished.
Without this, on a pseries machine with CONFIG_PPC_RTAS_FILTER enabled, an
application such as rtas_errd that is attempting to retrieve a dump will
encounter an error at the end of the retrieval process.

[ Upstream commit 7c5ed82b800d8615cdda00729e7b62e5899f0b13 ]
On large config LPARs (having 192 and more cores), Linux fails to boot
due to insufficient memory in the first memblock. It is due to the
memory reservation for the crash kernel which starts at 128MB offset of
the first memblock. This memory reservation for the crash kernel doesn't
leave enough space in the first memblock to accommodate other essential
system resources.
The crash kernel start address was set to 128MB offset by default to
ensure that the crash kernel get some memory below the RMA region which
is used to be of size 256MB. But given that the RMA region size can be
512MB or more, setting the crash kernel offset to mid of RMA size will
leave enough space for the kernel to allocate memory for other system
resources.
Since the above crash kernel offset change is only applicable to the LPAR
platform, the LPAR feature detection is pushed before the crash kernel
reservation. The rest of LPAR specific initialization will still
be done during pseries_probe_fw_features as usual.
This patch is dependent on changes to paca allocation for boot CPU. It
expect boot CPU to discover 1T segment support which is introduced by
the patch posted here:

commit bd59380c5ba4147dcbaad3e582b55ccfd120b764 upstream.
A number of userspace utilities depend on making calls to RTAS to retrieve
information and update various things.
The existing API through which we expose RTAS to userspace exposes more
RTAS functionality than we actually need, through the sys_rtas syscall,
which allows root (or anyone with CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to make any RTAS call they
want with arbitrary arguments.
Many RTAS calls take the address of a buffer as an argument, and it's up to
the caller to specify the physical address of the buffer as an argument. We
allocate a buffer (the "RMO buffer") in the Real Memory Area that RTAS can
access, and then expose the physical address and size of this buffer in
/proc/powerpc/rtas/rmo_buffer. Userspace is expected to read this address,
poke at the buffer using /dev/mem, and pass an address in the RMO buffer to
the RTAS call.
However, there's nothing stopping the caller from specifying whatever
address they want in the RTAS call, and it's easy to construct a series of
RTAS calls that can overwrite arbitrary bytes (even without /dev/mem
access).
Additionally, there are some RTAS calls that do potentially dangerous
things and for which there are no legitimate userspace use cases.
In the past, this would not have been a particularly big deal as it was
assumed that root could modify all system state freely, but with Secure
Boot and lockdown we need to care about this.
We can't fundamentally change the ABI at this point, however we can address
this by implementing a filter that checks RTAS calls against a list
of permitted calls and forces the caller to use addresses within the RMO
buffer.
The list is based off the list of calls that are used by the librtas
userspace library, and has been tested with a number of existing userspace
RTAS utilities. For compatibility with any applications we are not aware of
that require other calls, the filter can be turned off at build time.

[ Upstream commit 85a88cabad57d26d826dd94ea34d3a785824d802 ]
When performing partition migrations all present CPUs must be online
as all present CPUs must make the H_JOIN call as part of the migration
process. Once all present CPUs make the H_JOIN call, one CPU is returned
to make the rtas call to perform the migration to the destination system.
During testing of migration and changing the SMT state we have found
instances where CPUs are offlined, as part of the SMT state change,
before they make the H_JOIN call. This results in a hung system where
every CPU is either in H_JOIN or offline.
To prevent this this patch disables CPU hotplug during the migration
process.

[ Upstream commit a6717c01ddc259f6f73364779df058e2c67309f8 ]
The LPAR migration implementation and userspace-initiated cpu hotplug
can interleave their executions like so:
1. Set cpu 7 offline via sysfs.
2. Begin a partition migration, whose implementation requires the OS
to ensure all present cpus are online; cpu 7 is onlined:
rtas_ibm_suspend_me -> rtas_online_cpus_mask -> cpu_up
This sets cpu 7 online in all respects except for the cpu's
corresponding struct device; dev->offline remains true.
3. Set cpu 7 online via sysfs. _cpu_up() determines that cpu 7 is
already online and returns success. The driver core (device_online)
sets dev->offline = false.
4. The migration completes and restores cpu 7 to offline state:
rtas_ibm_suspend_me -> rtas_offline_cpus_mask -> cpu_down
This leaves cpu7 in a state where the driver core considers the cpu
device online, but in all other respects it is offline and
unused. Attempts to online the cpu via sysfs appear to succeed but the
driver core actually does not pass the request to the lower-level
cpuhp support code. This makes the cpu unusable until the cpu device
is manually set offline and then online again via sysfs.
Instead of directly calling cpu_up/cpu_down, the migration code should
use the higher-level device core APIs to maintain consistent state and
serialize operations.

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

If ppc_rtas() is called with args.nargs == 16 and args.nret == 0,
args.rets is set to point to &args.args[16], which is beyond the end of
the args.args array. This results in a minor read overrun of the array
when we check the first return code (which, per PAPR, is a required
output of all RTAS calls) to see if there's been a hardware error.
Change the nargs/nret check to ensure nargs is <= 15, allowing room for
the status code. Users shouldn't be calling with nret == 0, but there's
no real harm if they do, so we don't stop them.

There are no longer any users of enter_rtas() outside of rtas.c, so make
it "private", by moving the declaration inside rtas.c. Hopefully this
will encourage people to use one of the wrappers which takes the sharp
edges off the RTAS calling sequence.

Although call_rtas_display_status() does actually want to use the
regular RTAS locking, it doesn't want the extra logic that is in
rtas_call(), so currently it open codes the logic.
Instead we can use rtas_call_unlocked(), after taking the RTAS lock.

Most users of RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction Services) use rtas_call(),
which deals with locking as well as endian handling.
However we have two users outside of rtas.c that can't use rtas_call()
because they have different locking requirements.
The hotplug CPU code can't take the RTAS lock because the CPU would go
offline with the lock held and no other CPUs would be able to call RTAS
until the CPU came back online.
The xmon code doesn't want to take the lock because it would risk dead
locking when we are trying to recover from a crash.
Both sites required multiple patches when we added little endian
support, proving that programmers can't do endian right.
Although that ship has sailed, we can still clean the code up by
providing an unlocked version of rtas_call() which avoids the need to
open code the logic elsewhere.

Currently we do not validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas(). This
leads to a kernel oops when user space calls rtas system call on a powernv

The EPOW interrupt handler uses rtas_get_sensor(), which in turn
uses rtas_busy_delay() to wait for RTAS becoming ready in case it
is necessary. But rtas_busy_delay() is annotated with might_sleep()
and thus may not be used by interrupts handlers like the EPOW handler!
This leads to the following BUG when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is
enabled:

Fix this issue by introducing a new rtas_get_sensor_fast() function
that does not use rtas_busy_delay() - and thus can only be used for
sensors that do not cause a BUSY condition - known as "fast" sensors.
The EPOW sensor is defined to be "fast" in sPAPR - mpe.

We have a powerpc specific global called mem_init_done which is "set on
boot once kmalloc can be called".
But that's not *quite* true. We set it at the bottom of mem_init(), and
rely on the fact that mm_init() calls kmem_cache_init() immediately
after that, and nothing is running in parallel.
So replace it with the generic and 100% correct slab_is_available().

During suspend/migration operation we must wait for the VASI state reported
by the hypervisor to become Suspending prior to making the ibm,suspend-me
RTAS call. Calling routines to rtas_ibm_supend_me() pass a vasi_state variable
that exposes the VASI state to the caller. This is unnecessary as the caller
only really cares about the following three conditions; if there is an error
we should bailout, success indicating we have suspended and woken back up so
proceed to device tree update, or we are not suspendable yet so try calling
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again shortly.
This patch removes the extraneous vasi_state variable and simply uses the
return code to communicate how to proceed. We either succeed, fail, or get
-EAGAIN in which case we sleep for a second before trying to call
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again. The behaviour of ppc_rtas() remains the same,
but migrate_store() now returns the propogated error code on failure.
Previously -1 was returned from migrate_store() in the failure case which
equates to -EPERM and was clearly wrong.

RTAS events require arguments be passed in big endian while hypercalls
have their arguments passed in registers and the values should therefore
be in CPU endian.
The "ibm,suspend_me" 'RTAS' call makes a sequence of hypercalls to setup
one true RTAS call. This means that "ibm,suspend_me" is handled
specially in the ppc_rtas() syscall.
The ppc_rtas() syscall has its arguments in big endian and can therefore
pass these arguments directly to the RTAS call. "ibm,suspend_me" is
handled specially from within ppc_rtas() (by calling rtas_ibm_suspend_me())
which has left an endian bug on little endian systems due to the
requirement of hypercalls. The return value from rtas_ibm_suspend_me()
gets returned in cpu endian, and is left unconverted, also a bug on
little endian systems.
rtas_ibm_suspend_me() does not actually make use of the rtas_args that
it is passed. This patch removes the convoluted use of the rtas_args
struct to pass params to rtas_ibm_suspend_me() in favour of passing what
it needs as actual arguments. This patch also ensures the two callers of
rtas_ibm_suspend_me() pass function parameters in cpu endian and in the
case of ppc_rtas(), converts the return value.
migrate_store() (the other caller of rtas_ibm_suspend_me()) is from a
sysfs file which deals with everything in cpu endian so this function
only underwent cleanup.
This patch has been tested with KVM both LE and BE and on PowerVM both
LE and BE. Under QEMU/KVM the migration happens without touching these
code pathes.
For PowerVM there is no obvious regression on BE and the LE code path
now provides the correct parameters to the hypervisor.

The current kernel code assumes big endian and parses RTAS events all
wrong. The most visible effect is that we cannot honor EPOW events,
meaning, for example, we cannot shut down a guest properly from the
hypervisor.
This new patch is largely inspired by Nathan's work: we get rid of all
the bit fields in the RTAS event structures (even the unused ones, for
consistency). We also introduce endian safe accessors for the fields used
by the kernel (trivial rtas_error_type() accessor added for consistency).

The ppc_rtas() syscall allows userspace to interact directly with RTAS.
For the moment, it assumes every thing is big endian and returns either
EINVAL or EFAULT when called in a little endian environment.
As suggested by Benjamin, to avoid bugs when userspace wants to pass
a non 32 bit value to RTAS, it is far better to stick with a simple
rationale: ppc_rtas() should be called with a big endian rtas_args
structure.
With this patch, it is now up to userspace to forge big endian arguments,
as expected by RTAS.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the powerpc uses of the __cpuinit macros. There
are no __CPUINIT users in assembly files in powerpc.

This patch brings online all threads which are present but not online
prior to migration/hibernation. After migration/hibernation those
threads are taken back offline.
During migration/hibernation all online CPUs must call H_JOIN, this is
required by the hypervisor. Without this patch, threads that are offline
(H_CEDE'd) will not be woken to make the H_JOIN call and the OS will be
deadlocked (all threads either JOIN'd or CEDE'd).

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

All these files were including module.h just for the basic
EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure. We can shift them off to the
export.h header which is a way smaller footprint and thus
realize some compile time gains.

It is not necessary to share the same notifier.h.
This patch already moves register_reboot_notifier() and
unregister_reboot_notifier() from kernel/notifier.c to kernel/sys.c.

Adds support for page coalescing, which is a feature on IBM Power servers
which allows for coalescing identical pages between logical partitions.
Hint text pages as coalesce candidates, since they are the most likely
pages to be able to be coalesced between partitions. This patch also
exports some page coalescing statistics available from firmware via
lparcfg.

RTAS returns extended error codes as a hint of how long the
OS might want to wait before retrying a call. If we have nothing
else useful to do we may as well call back straight away.
This was found when testing the new dynamic dma window feature.
Firmware split the zeroing of the TCE table into 32k chunks but
returned 9901 (which is a suggested wait of 10ms). All up this took
about 10 minutes to complete since msleep is jiffies based and will
round 10ms up to 20ms.
With the patch below we take 3 seconds to complete the same test.
The hint firmware is returning in the RTAS call should definitely
be decreased, but even if we slept 1ms each iteration this would
take 32s.
