c21a493a2b powerpc/xmon: Fix data-breakpoint
Currently xmon data-breakpoint feature is broken.

Whenever there is a watchpoint match occurs, hw_breakpoint_handler will
be called by do_break via notifier chains mechanism. If watchpoint is
registered by xmon, hw_breakpoint_handler won't find any associated
perf_event and returns immediately with NOTIFY_STOP. Similarly, do_break
also returns without notifying to xmon.

Solve this by returning NOTIFY_DONE when hw_breakpoint_handler does not
find any perf_event associated with matched watchpoint, rather than
NOTIFY_STOP, which tells the core code to continue calling the other
breakpoint handlers including the xmon one.

4ad8622dc5 powerpc/8xx: Implement hw_breakpoint
This patch implements HW breakpoint on the 8xx. The 8xx has
capability to manage HW breakpoints, which is slightly different
than BOOK3S:
1/ The breakpoint match doesn't trigger a DSI exception but a
dedicated data breakpoint exception.
2/ The breakpoint happens after the instruction has completed,
no need to single step or emulate the instruction,
3/ Matched address is not set in DAR but in BAR,
4/ DABR register doesn't exist, instead we have registers
LCTRL1, LCTRL2 and CMPx registers,
5/ The match on one comparator is not on a double word but
on a single word.

The patch does:
1/ Prepare the dedicated registers in call to __set_dabr(). In order
to emulate the double word handling of BOOK3S, comparator E is set to
DABR address value and comparator F to address + 4. Then breakpoint 1
is set to match comparator E or F,
2/ Skip the singlestepping stage when compiled for CONFIG_PPC_8xx,
3/ Implement the exception. In that exception, the matched address
is taken from SPRN_BAR and manage as if it was from SPRN_DAR.
4/ I/D TLB error exception routines perform a tlbie on bad TLBs. That
tlbie triggers the breakpoint exception when performed on the
breakpoint address. For this reason, the routine returns if the match
is from one of those two tlbie.

While it looks like the first WARN() is probably valid, the other one is
triggered by disabling event via perf_event_disable() from atomic context.

The event is disabled here in case we were not able to emulate
the instruction that hit the breakpoint. By disabling the event
we unschedule the event and make sure it's not scheduled back.

But we can't call perf_event_disable() from atomic context, instead
we need to use the event's pending_disable irq_work method to disable it.

03465f899b powerpc: Use kprobe blacklist for exception handlers
Currently we mark the C implementations of some exception handlers as
__kprobes. This has the effect of putting them in the ".kprobes.text"
section, which separates them from the rest of the text.

Instead we can use the blacklist macros to add the symbols to a
blacklist which kprobes will check. This allows the linker to move
exception handler functions close to callers and avoids trampolines in
larger kernels.

fb822e6076 powerpc/hw_breakpoint: Fix oops when destroying hw_breakpoint event
When destroying a hw_breakpoint event, the kernel oopses as follows:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000c07
  NIP [c0000000000291d0] arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint+0x40/0x60
  LR [c00000000020b6b4] release_bp_slot+0x44/0x80

Call chain:

  hw_breakpoint_event_init()
    bp->destroy = bp_perf_event_destroy;

  do_exit()
    perf_event_exit_task()
      perf_event_exit_task_context()
        WRITE_ONCE(child_ctx->task, TASK_TOMBSTONE);
        perf_event_exit_event()
          free_event()
            _free_event()
              bp_perf_event_destroy() // event->destroy(event);
                release_bp_slot()
                  arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint()

perf_event_exit_task_context() sets child_ctx->task as TASK_TOMBSTONE
which is (void *)-1. arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint() tries to fetch
'thread' attribute of 'task' resulting in oops.

Peterz points out that the code shouldn't be using bp->ctx anyway, but
fixing that will require a decent amount of rework. So for now to fix
the oops, check if bp->ctx->task has been set to (void *)-1, before
dereferencing it. We don't use TASK_TOMBSTONE, because that would
require exporting it and it's supposed to be an internal detail.

69111bac42 powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does
not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before.

V2->V2
  - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.

Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.

__get_cpu_var() is defined as :

__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.

this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.

This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.

At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
the macro is removed too.

The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations
are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86
arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e.  using a global
register that may be set to the per cpu base.

Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()

1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);

2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);

3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)

   Converts to

	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);

4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);

   Converts to

	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));

5. Assignment to a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_write(y, x);

6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	__get_cpu_var(y)++

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_inc(y)

Since preemption is enabled in the cleanup of flush thread, and
there is no need to disable it, introduce the distinction between
set_breakpoint and __set_breakpoint, leaving only the flush_thread
instance as the current user of set_breakpoint.

This is a rewrite so that we don't assume we are using the DABR throughout the

manner in the thread_struct, rather than storing the raw DABR value.

The ptrace GET/SET_DEBUGREG interface currently passes the raw DABR in from
userspace.  We keep this functionality, so that future changes (like the POWER8
DAWR), will still fake the DABR to userspace.

This is because we don't check to see if the break point is associated
with task before we deference the task_struct pointer.

This changes the update to use current.

ac84aa2b3b powerpc/hw_breakpoints: Fix incorrect pointer access
If arch_validate_hwbkpt_settings() fails, bp->ctx won't be valid and the
kernel panics. Add a check to fix this.

ead53f22dc powerpc: remove non-required uses of include <linux/module.h>
None of the files touched here are modules, and they are not
exporting any symbols either -- so there is no need to be including
the module.h.  Builds of all the files remains successful.

Even kernel/module.c does not need to include it, since it includes
linux/moduleloader.h instead.

d09ec73871 powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Tell generic code we have no instruction breakpoints
At present, hw_breakpoint_slots() returns 1 regardless of what
type of breakpoint is specified in the type argument.  Since we
don't define CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS, there are
separate values for TYPE_INST and TYPE_DATA, and hw_breakpoint_slots()
returns 1 for both, effectively advertising instruction breakpoint
support which doesn't exist.

This fixes it by making hw_breakpoint_slots return 1 for TYPE_DATA
and 0 for TYPE_INST.  This moves hw_breakpoint_slots() from the
powerpc hw_breakpoint.h to hw_breakpoint.c because the definitions
of TYPE_INST and TYPE_DATA aren't available in <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>.
They are defined in <linux/hw_breakpoint.h> but we can't include
that header in <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>, and nor can we rely on
<linux/hw_breakpoint.h> being included before <asm/hw_breakpoint.h>.
Since hw_breakpoint_slots() is only called at boot time, there is
no performance impact from making it a real function rather than
a static inline.

76b0f13376 powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Cooperate better with other single-steppers
The code we had to clear the MSR_SE bit was not doing anything because
the caller (ultimately single_step_exception() in traps.c) had already
cleared.  Instead of trying to leave MSR_SE set if the TIF_SINGLESTEP
flag is set (which indicates that the process is being single-stepped
by ptrace), we instead return NOTIFY_DONE in that case, which means
the caller will generate a SIGTRAP for the process.

574cb24899 powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Fix off-by-one in checking access address
The code would accept an access to an address one byte past the end
of the requested range as legitimate, due to having a "<=" rather than
a "<".  This fixes that and cleans up the code a bit.

e3e94084ad powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Discard extraneous interrupt due to accesses outside symbol length
Many a times, the requested breakpoint length can be less than the
fixed breakpoint length i.e. 8 bytes supported by PowerPC 64-bit
server (Book III S) processors.  This could lead to extraneous
interrupts resulting in false breakpoint notifications.  This
detects and discards such interrupts for non-ptrace requests.
We don't change ptrace behaviour to avoid breaking compatability.

[Suggestion from Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> to add a new flag in
'struct arch_hw_breakpoint' to identify extraneous interrupts]

06532a6743 powerpc, hw_breakpoint: Enable hw-breakpoints while handling intervening signals
A signal delivered between a hw_breakpoint_handler() and the
single_step_dabr_instruction() will not have the breakpoint active
while the signal handler is running -- the signal delivery will
set up a new MSR value which will not have MSR_SE set, so we
won't get the signal step interrupt until and unless the signal
handler returns (which it may never do).

To fix this, we restore the breakpoint when delivering a signal --
we clear the MSR_SE bit and set the DABR again.  If the signal
handler returns, the DABR interrupt will occur again when the
instruction that we were originally trying to single-step gets
re-executed.

[Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> pointed out the need to do this.]

5aae8a5370 powerpc, hw_breakpoints: Implement hw_breakpoints for 64-bit server processors
Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC
64-bit server (Book III S) processors.  This allows access to a
given location to be used as an event that can be counted or
profiled by the perf_events subsystem.

This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can
also be used for process debugging via ptrace.  When perf_event
hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem
manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then
creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.

[Adopted suggestions from Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> to
- emulate_step() all system-wide breakpoints and single-step only the
  per-task breakpoints
- perform arch-specific cleanup before unregistration through
  arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint()
