On a kernel TM Bad thing program exception, the Machine State Register

enabled.
This patch dumps the MSR value as a 64-bits value instead of 32 bits. In

This patch adds a new test for the new PTRACE_SYSEMU ptrace request.
This test also relies on PTRACE_GETREGS and PTRACE_SETREGS requests to
run properly, since the trace instruction (gettid() syscall) is being
modified at run-time (by PTRACE_SETREGS) and re-executed three times.
PTRACE_GETREGS is being used to check that the registers are still
sane.
This test basically creates a child process that executes syscalls
and the parent process check if it is being traced appropriately. The
parent process guarantees that the SYSCALLs are being traced, with
PTRACE_SYSEMU, and ptrace stops the child application before a syscall is
executed. The way the tests validates it, is by guaranteeing that the
system calls arguments, as argv[0] (r3) which is the same register that
will have the syscall return value on powerpc, are not being corrupted on
PTRACE_SYSEMU with a return value, i.e, it continues to have the current
arguments instead, meaning that the registers where not clobbered.
This test is basically the same test for x86 located at
tools/testing/selftests/x86/ptrace_syscall.c, limited to test PTRACE_SYSEMU
request, and ported to PowerPC.

This is a patch that adds support for PTRACE_SYSEMU ptrace request in
PowerPC architecture.
When ptrace(PTRACE_SYSEMU, ...) request is called, it will be handled by
the arch independent function ptrace_resume(), which will tag the task with
the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag. This flag needs to be handled from a platform
dependent point of view, which is what this patch does.
This patch adds this task's flag as part of the _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE, which
is the MACRO that is used to trace syscalls at entrance/exit.
Since TIF_SYSCALL_EMU is now part of _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE, if the task has
_TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE set, it will hit do_syscall_trace_enter() at syscall
entrance and do_syscall_trace_leave() at syscall leave.
do_syscall_trace_enter() needs to handle the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag properly,
which will interrupt the syscall executing if TIF_SYSCALL_EMU is set. The
output values should not be changed, i.e. the return value (r3) should
contain the original syscall argument on exit.
With this flag set, the syscall is not executed fundamentally, because
do_syscall_trace_enter() is returning -1 which is bigger than NR_syscall,
thus, skipping the syscall execution and exiting userspace.

Moving TIF_32BIT to use bit 20 instead of 4 in the task flag field.
This change is making room for an upcoming new task macro
(_TIF_SYSCALL_EMU) which is preferred to set a bit in the lower 16-bits
part of the word.
This upcoming flag macro will take part in a composed macro
(_TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE) which will contain other flags as well, and it is
preferred that the whole _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE macro only sets the lower 16
bits of a word, so, it could be handled using immediate operations (as load
immediate, add immediate, ...) where the immediate operand (SI) is limited
to 16-bits.
Another possible solution would be using the LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() macro
to load a full 64-bits word immediate, but it takes 5 operations instead of
one.
Having TIF_32BITS being redefined to use an upper bit is not a problem
since there is only one place in the assembly code where TIF_32BIT is being
used, and it could be replaced with an operation with right shift (addis),
since it is used alone, i.e. not being part of a composed macro, which has
different bits set, and would require LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE().
Tested on a 64 bits Big Endian machine running a 32 bits task.

Ever since fast reboot is enabled by default in opal,
opal_cec_reboot() will use fast-reset instead of full IPL to perform
system reboot. This leaves the user with no direct way to force a full
IPL reboot except changing an nvram setting that persistently disables
fast-reset for all subsequent reboots.
This patch provides a more direct way for the user to force a one-shot
full IPL reboot by passing the command line argument 'full' to the
reboot command. So the user will be able to tweak the reboot behavior
via:
$ sudo reboot full # Force a full ipl reboot skipping fast-reset
or
$ sudo reboot # default reboot path (usually fast-reset)
The reboot command passes the un-parsed command argument to the kernel
via the 'Reboot' syscall which is then passed on to the arch function
pnv_restart(). The patch updates pnv_restart() to handle this cmd-arg
and issues opal_cec_reboot2 with OPAL_REBOOT_FULL_IPL to force a full
IPL reset.

In power7_marked_instr_event() there is a switch case that is missing
a break or an explicit fallthrough, it's not immediately clear which
it should be.
The function determines based on the PMU event code, whether the event
is a "marked" event (which then requires us to configure the PMU in a
certain way). On Power7 there is no specific bit(s) in the event to
tell us that, we just have to know.
Rather than having a full list of every event and whether they are
marked, we pull apart the event code and for events with certain
values of certain fields we can say that those are all marked events.
We take the psel (bits 0-7) of the event, and look at bits 4-7. For a
value of 6 we say that if the entire psel == 0x64 then if the pmc == 3
the event is marked, else not, and otherwise we continue.
It is then that we fallthrough to the 8 case, where we return true if
the unit == 0xd.
The question is should the 6 case also fallthrough and check for
unit == 0xd, or should it return.
Looking at the full list of events we see that there are zero events
where (psel >> 4) == 0x6 and unit == 0xd.
So the answer is it doesn't really matter, there are no valid event
codes that will return a different result whether we fallthrough or
break.
But equally, testing the 6 case events against unit == 0xd is slightly
bogus, as there are no such events. So to make the code clearer, and
avoid any future confusion, have the 6 case break rather than falling
through.

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.

The updates to powerpc numa and memory hotplug code now use the
in-kernel LMB array instead of the device tree. This change allows the
pseries memory DLPAR code to only update the device tree once after
successfully handling a DLPAR request.
Prior to the in-kernel LMB array, the numa code looked up the affinity
for memory being added in the device tree, the code now looks this up
in the LMB array. This change means the memory hotplug code can just
update the affinity for an LMB in the LMB array instead of updating
the device tree.
This also provides a savings in kernel memory. When updating the
device tree old properties are never free'ed since there is no
usecount on properties. This behavior leads to a new copy of the
property being allocated every time a LMB is added or removed (i.e. a
request to add 100 LMBs creates 100 new copies of the property). With
this update only a single new property is created when a DLPAR request
completes successfully.

When switching processes, currently all user SLBEs are cleared, and a
few (exec_base, pc, and stack) are preloaded. In trivial testing with
small apps, this tends to miss the heap and low 256MB segments, and it
will also miss commonly accessed segments on large memory workloads.
Add a simple round-robin preload cache that just inserts the last SLB
miss into the head of the cache and preloads those at context switch
time. Every 256 context switches, the oldest entry is removed from the
cache to shrink the cache and require fewer slbmte if they are unused.
Much more could go into this, including into the SLB entry reclaim

large memory workloads. But this is a simple thing we can do now that

benchmark on POWER9/hash (with kernel speculation security masures
disabled) increases from 140K/s to 178K/s (27%).
POWER8 does not change much (within 1%), it's unclear why it does not
see a big gain like POWER9.
Booting to busybox init with 256MB segments has SLB misses go down
from 945 to 69, and with 1T segments 900 to 21. These could almost all
be eliminated by preloading a bit more carefully with ELF binary
loading.

This will be used by the SLB code in the next patch, but for now this
sets the slb_addr_limit to the correct size for 32-bit tasks.

Add 32-entry bitmaps to track the allocation status of the first 32
SLB entries, and whether they are user or kernel entries. These are
used to allocate free SLB entries first, before resorting to the round
robin allocator.

User SLB mappig data is copied into the PACA from the mm->context so
it can be accessed by the SLB miss handlers.
After the C conversion, SLB miss handlers now run with relocation on,
and user SLB misses are able to take recursive kernel SLB misses, so
the user SLB mapping data can be removed from the paca and accessed
directly.

This patch moves SLB miss handlers completely to C, using the standard
exception handler macros to set up the stack and branch to C.
This can be done because the segment containing the kernel stack is
always bolted, so accessing it with relocation on will not cause an
SLB exception.
Arbitrary kernel memory may not be accessed when handling kernel space
SLB misses, so care should be taken there. However user SLB misses can
access any kernel memory, which can be used to move some fields out of
the paca (in later patches).
User SLB misses could quite easily reconcile IRQs and set up a first
class kernel environment and exit via ret_from_except, however that
doesn't seem to be necessary at the moment, so we only do that if a
bad fault is encountered.

Since RFC:
- Added MSR[RI] handling
- Fixed up a register loss bug exposed by irq tracing (Aneesh)
- Reject misses outside the defined kernel regions (Aneesh)
- Added several more sanity checks and error handling (Aneesh), we may
look at consolidating these tests and tightenig up the code but for
a first pass we decided it's better to check carefully.
Since v1:
- Fixed SLB cache corruption (Aneesh)
- Fixed untidy SLBE allocation "leak" in get_vsid error case
- Now survives some stress testing on real hardware

POWER9 introduces SLBIA IH=3, which invalidates all SLB entries and
associated lookaside information that have a class value of 1, which
Linux assigns to user addresses. This matches what switch_slb wants,
and allows a simple fast implementation that avoids the slb_cache
complexity.
As a side-effect, the POWER5 < DD2.1 SLB invalidation workaround is
also avoided on POWER9.
Process context switching rate is improved about 2.2% for a small
process that hits the slb cache which is the best case for the current
code.

The SLBIA IH=1 hint will remove all non-zero SLBEs, but only
invalidate ERAT entries associated with a class value of 1, for
processors that support the hint (e.g., POWER6 and newer), which
Linux assigns to user addresses.
This prevents kernel ERAT entries from being invalidated when
context switchig (if the thread faulted in more than 8 user SLBEs).

Remove the vmalloc segment from bolted SLBEs. This is not required to
be bolted, and seems like it was added to help pre-load the SLB on
context switch. However there are now other segments like the vmemmap
segment and non-zero node memory that often take misses after a context
switch, so it is better to solve this in a more general way.
A subsequent change will track free SLB entries and uses those rather
than round-robin overwrite valid entries, which makes it far less
likely for kernel SLBEs to be evicted after they are installed.
