If the kernel disables transactional memory (TM) and userspace still
tries TM related actions (TM instructions or TM SPR accesses) TM aware
hardware will cause the kernel to take a facility unavailable

There is currently an inconsistency as to how the entire CPU register
state is saved and restored when a thread uses transactional memory
(TM).
Using transactional memory results in the CPU having duplicated
(almost) all of its register state. This duplication results in a set
of registers which can be considered 'live', those being currently
modified by the instructions being executed and another set that is
frozen at a point in time.
On context switch, both sets of state have to be saved and (later)
restored. These two states are often called a variety of different
things. Common terms for the state which only exists after the CPU has
entered a transaction (performed a TBEGIN instruction) in hardware are
'transactional' or 'speculative'.
Between a TBEGIN and a TEND or TABORT (or an event that causes the
hardware to abort), regardless of the use of TSUSPEND the
transactional state can be referred to as the live state.
The second state is often to referred to as the 'checkpointed' state
and is a duplication of the live state when the TBEGIN instruction is
executed. This state is kept in the hardware and will be rolled back
to on transaction failure.
Currently all the registers stored in pt_regs are ALWAYS the live
registers, that is, when a thread has transactional registers their
values are stored in pt_regs and the checkpointed state is in
ckpt_regs. A strange opposite is true for fp_state/vr_state. When a
thread is non transactional fp_state/vr_state holds the live
registers. When a thread has initiated a transaction fp_state/vr_state
holds the checkpointed state and transact_fp/transact_vr become the
structure which holds the live state (at this point it is a
transactional state).
This method creates confusion as to where the live state is, in some
circumstances it requires extra work to determine where to put the
live state and prevents the use of common functions designed (probably
before TM) to save the live state.
With this patch pt_regs, fp_state and vr_state all represent the
same thing and the other structures [pending rename] are for
checkpointed state.

Much of the signal code takes a pt_regs on which it operates. Over
time the signal code has needed to know more about the thread than
what pt_regs can supply, this information is obtained as needed by
using 'current'.
This approach is not strictly incorrect however it does mean that
there is now a hard requirement that the pt_regs being passed around
does belong to current, this is never checked. A safer approach is for
the majority of the signal functions to take a task_struct from which
they can obtain pt_regs and any other information they need. The
caveat that the task_struct they are passed must be current doesn't go
away but can more easily be checked for.
Functions called from outside powerpc signal code are passed a pt_regs
and they can confirm that the pt_regs is that of current and pass
current to other functions, furthurmore, powerpc signal functions can
check that the task_struct they are passed is the same as current
avoiding possible corruption of current (or the task they are passed)
if this assertion ever fails.

After a thread is reclaimed from its active or suspended transactional
state the checkpointed state exists on CPU, this state (along with the
live/transactional state) has been saved in its entirety by the
reclaiming process.
There exists a sequence of events that would cause the kernel to call
one of enable_kernel_fp(), enable_kernel_altivec() or
enable_kernel_vsx() after a thread has been reclaimed. These functions
save away any user state on the CPU so that the kernel can use the
registers. Not only is this saving away unnecessary at this point, it
is actually incorrect. It causes a save of the checkpointed state to
the live structures within the thread struct thus destroying the true
live state for that thread.

restore_math() restore_fp() and restore_altivec() currently may not
restore the registers. It doesn't appear that this is more serious
than a performance penalty. If the math registers aren't restored the
userspace thread will still be run with the facility disabled.
Userspace will not be able to read invalid values. On the first access
it will take an facility unavailable exception and the kernel will
detected an active transaction, at which point it will abort the
transaction. There is the possibility for a pathological case
preventing any progress by transactions, however, transactions
are never guaranteed to make progress.

Use assembler sections of fixed size and location to arrange the 64-bit
Book3S exception vector code (64-bit Book3E also uses it in head_64.S
for 0x0..0x100).
This allows better flexibility in arranging exception code and hiding
unimportant details behind macros.
Gas sections can be a bit painful to use this way, mainly because the
assembler does not know where they will be finally linked. Taking
absolute addresses requires a bit of trickery for example, but it can
be hidden behind macros for the most part.
Generated code is mostly the same except locations, offsets, alignments.
The "+ 0x2" is only required for the trap number / kvm exit number,
which gets loaded as a constant into a register.
Previously, code also used + 0x2 for label names, but we changed to
using "H" to distinguish HV case for that. Remove the last vestiges
of that.
__after_prom_start is taking absolute address of a label in another
fixed section. Newer toolchains seemed to compile this okay, but older
ones do not. FIXED_SYMBOL_ABS_ADDR is more foolproof, it just takes an
additional line to define.

__kernel_get_syscall_map() and __kernel_clock_getres() use cmpli to
check if the passed in pointer is non zero. cmpli maps to a 32 bit
compare on binutils, so we ignore the top 32 bits.
A simple test case can be created by passing in a bogus pointer with
the bottom 32 bits clear. Using a clk_id that is handled by the VDSO,
then one that is handled by the kernel shows the problem:
printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_REALTIME, (void *)0x100000000));
printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, (void *)0x100000000));
And we get:
0
-1
The bigger issue is if we pass a valid pointer with the bottom 32 bits
clear, in this case we will return success but won't write any data
to the pointer.
I stumbled across this issue because the LLVM integrated assembler
doesn't accept cmpli with 3 arguments. Fix this by converting them to
cmpldi.

When PCI Device pass-through is enabled via VFIO, KVM-PPC will
pin pages using get_user_pages_fast(). One of the downsides of
the pinning is that the page could be in CMA region. The CMA
region is used for other allocations like the hash page table.
Ideally we want the pinned pages to be from non CMA region.
This patch (currently only for KVM PPC with VFIO) forcefully
migrates the pages out (huge pages are omitted for the moment).
There are more efficient ways of doing this, but that might
be elaborate and might impact a larger audience beyond just
the kvm ppc implementation.
The magic is in new_iommu_non_cma_page() which allocates the

The powerpc boot wrapper is potentially compiled with a separate

case is a 64-bit big endian kernel builds a 32-bit big endian wrapper.
The main problem with this is that the wrapper does not have access to
the kernel headers (without a lot of gross hacks). To get around this
the required headers are copied into the build directory via several sed
scripts which rewrite problematic includes. This patch moves these
fixups out of the makefile into a separate .sed script file to clean up

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it

CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

The MMCR2 register is available twice, one time with number 785
(privileged access), and one time with number 769 (unprivileged,
but it can be disabled completely). In former times, the Linux
kernel was using the unprivileged register 769 only, but since
commit 8dd75ccb57 ("powerpc: Use privileged SPR number
for MMCR2"), it uses the privileged register 785 instead.
The KVM-PR code then of course also switched to use the SPR 785,
but this is causing older guest kernels to crash, since these
kernels still access 769 instead. So to support older kernels
with KVM-PR again, we have to support register 769 in KVM-PR, too.

On POWER8E and POWER8NVL, KVM-PR does not announce support for
64kB page sizes and 1TB segments yet. Looks like this has just
been forgotton so far, since there is no reason why this should
be different to the normal POWER8 CPUs.

This takes out the code that arranges to run two (or more) virtual
cores on a single subcore when possible, that is, when both vcores
are from the same VM, the VM is configured with one CPU thread per
virtual core, and all the per-subcore registers have the same value
in each vcore. Since the VTB (virtual timebase) is a per-subcore
register, and will almost always differ between vcores, this code
is disabled on POWER8 machines, meaning that it is only usable on
POWER7 machines (which don't have VTB). Given the tiny number of
POWER7 machines which have firmware that allows them to run HV KVM,
the benefit of simplifying the code outweighs the loss of this
feature on POWER7 machines.

POWER8 has one virtual timebase (VTB) register per subcore, not one
per CPU thread. The HV KVM code currently treats VTB as a per-thread
register, which can lead to spurious soft lockup messages from guests
which use the VTB as the time source for the soft lockup detector.
(CPUs before POWER8 did not have the VTB register.)
For HV KVM, this fixes the problem by making only the primary thread
in each virtual core save and restore the VTB value. With this,
the VTB state becomes part of the kvmppc_vcore structure. This
also means that "piggybacking" of multiple virtual cores onto one
subcore is not possible on POWER8, because then the virtual cores
would share a single VTB register.
PR KVM emulates a VTB register, which is per-vcpu because PR KVM
has no notion of CPU threads or SMT. For PR KVM we move the VTB
state into the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct.

User space DTLB miss represent approximatly 90% of TLB misses
so make it the shortest path.
Also remove an unneccessary double jump in FixupDAR
Before this patch, we spend 3.3 TB ticks in the handler for each
user address miss and 3.4 TB ticks for each kernel address miss
After this patch, we send 3.0 TB ticks in the handler for each
user address miss and 3.9 TB ticks for each kernel address miss
Taking into account that user misses represent 90% of the total,
this patch provides an improvement of approx. 9%

This allows PCI devices that can only address (e.g.) 36 or 40 bit DMA to
use direct DMA, at the cost of not being able to DMA to non-RAM addresses
(this doesn't affect MSIs as there is a separate dedicated window for
that) which we wouldn't have been able to do anyway if the RAM size didn't
trigger the creation of the second inbound window.
It also fixes an off-by-one error that set dma_direct_ops on PCI devices
whose dma mask could address all the space below the DMA offset
(previously 40 bits), but not the window that starts at the DMA offset.

The 8xx has two special registers called EID (External Interrupt
Disable) and EIE (External Interrupt Enable) for clearing/setting
EE in MSR. It avoids the three instructions set mfmsr/ori/mtmsr or
mfmsr/rlwinm/mtmsr and it avoids using a general register.
We just have to write something in the special register to change MSR EE
bit. So we write r0 into the register, regardless of r0 value.
Writing to one of those two special registers also set the MSR RI bit,
but this bit is only unset during beginning of exception prolog and end
of exception epilog. When executing C-functions MSR RI is always set.

Factor out the common codes of setup arch functions to a separate
function. It does make no sense to print a board specific info
in setup arch functions, so use a more general one.
For ASP8347E board, there is no pci device node. So it is safe to
invoke mpc83xx_setup_pci() in its setup arch function even there is
no such invocation in its original setup arch function.
