2016-06-30powerpc: Initialise pci_io_base as early as possibleDarren Stevens
Commit d6a9996e84ac ("powerpc/mm: vmalloc abstraction in preparation for radix") turned kernel memory and IO addresses from #defined constants to variables initialised at runtime. On PA6T (pasemi) systems the setup_arch() machine call initialises the onboard PCI-e root-ports, and uses pci_io_base to do this, which is now before its value has been set, resulting in a panic early in boot before console IO is initialised. Move the pci_io_base initialisation to the same place as vmalloc ranges are set (hash__early_init_mmu()/radix__early_init_mmu()) - this is the earliest possible place we can initialise it.

2016-06-29powerpc/tm: Avoid SLB faults in treclaim/trecheckpoint when RI=0Michael Neuling
Currently we have 2 segments that are bolted for the kernel linear mapping (ie 0xc000... addresses). This is 0 to 1TB and also the kernel stacks. Anything accessed outside of these regions may need to be faulted in. (In practice machines with TM always have 1T segments) If a machine has < 2TB of memory we never fault on the kernel linear mapping as these two segments cover all physical memory. If a machine has > 2TB of memory, there may be structures outside of these two segments that need to be faulted in. This faulting can occur when running as a guest as the hypervisor may remove any SLB that's not bolted. When we treclaim and trecheckpoint we have a window where we need to run with the userspace GPRs. This means that we no longer have a valid stack pointer in r1. For this window we therefore clear MSR RI to indicate that any exceptions taken at this point won't be able to be handled. This means that we can't take segment misses in this RI=0 window. In this RI=0 region, we currently access the thread_struct for the process being context switched to or from. This thread_struct access may cause a segment fault since it's not guaranteed to be covered by the two bolted segment entries described above. We've seen this with a crash when running as a guest with > 2TB of memory on PowerVM: Unrecoverable exception 4100 at c00000000004f138 Oops: Unrecoverable exception, sig: 6 [#1] SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries CPU: 1280 PID: 7755 Comm: kworker/1280:1 Tainted: G X 4.4.13-46-default #1 task: c000189001df4210 ti: c000189001d5c000 task.ti: c000189001d5c000 NIP: c00000000004f138 LR: 0000000010003a24 CTR: 0000000010001b20 REGS: c000189001d5f730 TRAP: 4100 Tainted: G X (4.4.13-46-default) MSR: 8000000100001031 <SF,ME,IR,DR,LE> CR: 24000048 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c00000000004ed18 SOFTE: 0 GPR00: ffffffffc58d7b60 c000189001d5f9b0 00000000100d7d00 000000003a738288 GPR04: 0000000000002781 0000000000000006 0000000000000000 c0000d1f4d889620 GPR08: 000000000000c350 00000000000008ab 00000000000008ab 00000000100d7af0 GPR12: 00000000100d7ae8 00003ffe787e67a0 0000000000000000 0000000000000211 GPR16: 0000000010001b20 0000000000000000 0000000000800000 00003ffe787df110 GPR20: 0000000000000001 00000000100d1e10 0000000000000000 00003ffe787df050 GPR24: 0000000000000003 0000000000010000 0000000000000000 00003fffe79e2e30 GPR28: 00003fffe79e2e68 00000000003d0f00 00003ffe787e67a0 00003ffe787de680 NIP [c00000000004f138] restore_gprs+0xd0/0x16c LR [0000000010003a24] 0x10003a24 Call Trace: [c000189001d5f9b0] [c000189001d5f9f0] 0xc000189001d5f9f0 (unreliable) [c000189001d5fb90] [c00000000001583c] tm_recheckpoint+0x6c/0xa0 [c000189001d5fbd0] [c000000000015c40] __switch_to+0x2c0/0x350 [c000189001d5fc30] [c0000000007e647c] __schedule+0x32c/0x9c0 [c000189001d5fcb0] [c0000000007e6b58] schedule+0x48/0xc0 [c000189001d5fce0] [c0000000000deabc] worker_thread+0x22c/0x5b0 [c000189001d5fd80] [c0000000000e7000] kthread+0x110/0x130 [c000189001d5fe30] [c000000000009538] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xa4 Instruction dump: 7cb103a6 7cc0e3a6 7ca222a6 78a58402 38c00800 7cc62838 08860000 7cc000a6 38a00006 78c60022 7cc62838 0b060000 <e8c701a0> 7ccff120 e8270078 e8a70098 ---[ end trace 602126d0a1dedd54 ]--- This fixes this by copying the required data from the thread_struct to the stack before we clear MSR RI.

2016-06-28powerpc/eeh: Fix wrong argument passed to eeh_rmv_device()Gavin Shan
When calling eeh_rmv_device() in eeh_reset_device() for partial hotplug case, @rmv_data instead of its address is the proper argument. Otherwise, the stack frame is corrupted when writing to @rmv_data (actually its address) in eeh_rmv_device(). It results in kernel crash as observed. This fixes the issue by passing @rmv_data, not its address to eeh_rmv_device() in eeh_reset_device().

2016-06-27powerpc/tm: Always reclaim in start_thread() for exec() class syscallsCyril Bur
Userspace can quite legitimately perform an exec() syscall with a suspended transaction. exec() does not return to the old process, rather it load a new one and starts that, the expectation therefore is that the new process starts not in a transaction. Currently exec() is not treated any differently to any other syscall which creates problems. Firstly it could allow a new process to start with a suspended transaction for a binary that no longer exists. This means that the checkpointed state won't be valid and if the suspended transaction were ever to be resumed and subsequently aborted (a possibility which is exceedingly likely as exec()ing will likely doom the transaction) the new process will jump to invalid state. Secondly the incorrect attempt to keep the transactional state while still zeroing state for the new process creates at least two TM Bad Things. The first triggers on the rfid to return to userspace as start_thread() has given the new process a 'clean' MSR but the suspend will still be set in the hardware MSR. The second TM Bad Thing triggers in __switch_to() as the processor is still transactionally suspended but __switch_to() wants to zero the TM sprs for the new process. This is an example of the outcome of calling exec() with a suspended transaction. Note the first 700 is likely the first TM bad thing decsribed earlier only the kernel can't report it as we've loaded userspace registers. c000000000009980 is the rfid in fast_exception_return() Bad kernel stack pointer 3fffcfa1a370 at c000000000009980 Oops: Bad kernel stack pointer, sig: 6 [#1] CPU: 0 PID: 2006 Comm: tm-execed Not tainted NIP: c000000000009980 LR: 0000000000000000 CTR: 0000000000000000 REGS: c00000003ffefd40 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted MSR: 8000000300201031 <SF,ME,IR,DR,LE,TM[SE]> CR: 00000000 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c0000000000098b4 SOFTE: 0 PACATMSCRATCH: b00000010000d033 GPR00: 0000000000000000 00003fffcfa1a370 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR04: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR08: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR12: 00003fff966611c0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 NIP [c000000000009980] fast_exception_return+0xb0/0xb8 LR [0000000000000000] (null) Call Trace: Instruction dump: f84d0278 e9a100d8 7c7b03a6 e84101a0 7c4ff120 e8410170 7c5a03a6 e8010070 e8410080 e8610088 e8810090 e8210078 <4c000024> 48000000 e8610178 88ed023b Kernel BUG at c000000000043e80 [verbose debug info unavailable] Unexpected TM Bad Thing exception at c000000000043e80 (msr 0x201033) Oops: Unrecoverable exception, sig: 6 [#2] CPU: 0 PID: 2006 Comm: tm-execed Tainted: G D task: c0000000fbea6d80 ti: c00000003ffec000 task.ti: c0000000fb7ec000 NIP: c000000000043e80 LR: c000000000015a24 CTR: 0000000000000000 REGS: c00000003ffef7e0 TRAP: 0700 Tainted: G D MSR: 8000000300201033 <SF,ME,IR,DR,RI,LE,TM[SE]> CR: 28002828 XER: 00000000 CFAR: c000000000015a20 SOFTE: 0 PACATMSCRATCH: b00000010000d033 GPR00: 0000000000000000 c00000003ffefa60 c000000000db5500 c0000000fbead000 GPR04: 8000000300001033 2222222222222222 2222222222222222 00000000ff160000 GPR08: 0000000000000000 800000010000d033 c0000000fb7e3ea0 c00000000fe00004 GPR12: 0000000000002200 c00000000fe00000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR16: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR20: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 c0000000fbea7410 00000000ff160000 GPR24: c0000000ffe1f600 c0000000fbea8700 c0000000fbea8700 c0000000fbead000 GPR28: c000000000e20198 c0000000fbea6d80 c0000000fbeab680 c0000000fbea6d80 NIP [c000000000043e80] tm_restore_sprs+0xc/0x1c LR [c000000000015a24] __switch_to+0x1f4/0x420 Call Trace: Instruction dump: 7c800164 4e800020 7c0022a6 f80304a8 7c0222a6 f80304b0 7c0122a6 f80304b8 4e800020 e80304a8 7c0023a6 e80304b0 <7c0223a6> e80304b8 7c0123a6 4e800020 This fixes CVE-2016-5828.

2016-06-23powerpc: Fix faults caused by radix patching of SLB miss handlerMichael Ellerman
As part of the Radix MMU support we added some feature sections in the SLB miss handler. These are intended to catch the case that we incorrectly take an SLB miss when Radix is enabled, and instead of crashing weirdly they bail out to a well defined exit path and trigger an oops. However the way they were written meant the bailout case was enabled by default until we did CPU feature patching. On powermacs the early debug prints in setup_system() can cause an SLB miss, which happens before code patching, and so the SLB miss handler would incorrectly bailout and crash during boot. Fix it by inverting the sense of the feature section, so that the code which is in place at boot is correct for the hash case. Once we determine we are using Radix - which will never happen on a powermac - only then do we patch in the bailout case which unconditionally jumps.

2016-06-17powerpc/eeh: Fix invalid cached PE primary busGavin Shan
The PE primary bus cannot be got from its child devices when having full hotplug in error recovery. The PE primary bus is cached, which is done in commit <05ba75f84864> ("powerpc/eeh: Fix stale cached primary bus"). In eeh_reset_device(), the flag (EEH_PE_PRI_BUS) is cleared before the PCI hot remove. eeh_pe_bus_get() then returns NULL as the PE primary bus in pnv_eeh_reset() and it crashes the kernel eventually. This fixes the issue by clearing the flag (EEH_PE_PRI_BUS) before the PCI hot add. With it, the PowerNV EEH reset backend (pnv_eeh_reset()) can get valid PE primary bus through eeh_pe_bus_get().

The recent commit 7cc851039d64 ("powerpc/pseries: Add POWER8NVL support to ibm,client-architecture-support call") added a new PVR mask & value to the start of the ibm_architecture_vec[] array. However it missed the fact that further down in the array, we hard code the offset of one of the fields, and then at boot use that value to patch the value in the array. This means every update to the array must also update the #define, ugh. This means that on pseries machines we will misreport to firmware the number of cores we support, by a factor of threads_per_core. Fix it for now by updating the #define.

Like zlib compression in pstore, this patch added lzo and lz4 compression support so that users can have more options and better compression ratio. The original code treats the compressed data together with the uncompressed ECC correction notice by using zlib decompress. The ECC correction notice is missing in the decompression process. The treatment also makes lzo and lz4 not working. So I treat them separately by using pstore_decompress() to treat the compressed data, and memcpy() to treat the uncompressed ECC correction notice.

If the waiting task gets killed by the oom killer it would block oom_reaper from asynchronous address space reclaim and reduce the chances of timely OOM resolving. Wait for the lock in the killable mode and return with EINTR if the task got killed while waiting.

2016-05-12Revert "powerpc/eeh: Fix crash in eeh_add_device_early() on Cell"Guilherme G. Piccoli
This reverts commit 89a51df5ab1d38b257300b8ac940bbac3bb0eb9b. The function eeh_add_device_early() is used to perform EEH initialization in devices added later on the system, like in hotplug/DLPAR scenarios. Since the commit 89a51df5ab1d ("powerpc/eeh: Fix crash in eeh_add_device_early() on Cell") a new check was introduced in this function - Cell has no EEH capabilities which led to kernel oops if hotplug was performed, so checking for eeh_enabled() was introduced to avoid the issue. However, in architectures that EEH is present like pSeries or PowerNV, we might reach a case in which no PCI devices are present on boot time and so EEH is not initialized. Then, if a device is added via DLPAR for example, eeh_add_device_early() fails because eeh_enabled() is false, and EEH end up not being enabled at all. This reverts the aforementioned patch since a new verification was introduced by the commit d91dafc02f42 ("powerpc/eeh: Delay probing EEH device during hotplug") and so the original Cell issue does not happen anymore.

The function eeh_pe_reset_and_recover() is used to recover EEH error when the passthrou device are transferred to guest and backwards. The content in the device's config space will be lost on PE reset issued in the middle of the recovery. The function saves/restores it before/after the reset. However, config access to some adapters like Broadcom BCM5719 at this point will causes fenced PHB. The config space is always blocked and we save 0xFF's that are restored at late point. The memory BARs are totally corrupted, causing another EEH error upon access to one of the memory BARs. This restores the config space on those adapters like BCM5719 from the content saved to the EEH device when it's populated, to resolve above issue.

On the other hand, no error handlers will be called if we don't have a bound driver. This ignores the error handler in eeh_pe_reset_and_recover() that reports the error to device driver to avoid the exceptional behaviour.

After obtaining a property from of_find_property() and before calling of_remove_property() most code checks to ensure that the property returned from of_find_property() is not null. The previous patch moved this check to the start of the function of_remove_property() in order to avoid the case where this check isn't done and a null value is passed. This ensures the check is always conducted before taking locks and attempting to remove the property. Thus it is no longer necessary to perform a check for null values before invoking of_remove_property().

Aside from the change to set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), which allow moving the per-cpu kthreads on, the other critical piece is the cpu selection for pinned tasks in select_task_rq(). This avoids dropping into select_fallback_rq(). select_fallback_rq() cannot be allowed to select !active cpus because its used to migrate user tasks away.

2016-04-27ftrace: Match dot symbols when searching functions on ppc64Thiago Jung Bauermann
In the ppc64 big endian ABI, function symbols point to function descriptors. The symbols which point to the function entry points have a dot in front of the function name. Consequently, when the ftrace filter mechanism searches for the symbol corresponding to an entry point address, it gets the dot symbol. As a result, ftrace filter users have to be aware of this ABI detail on ppc64 and prepend a dot to the function name when setting the filter. The perf probe command insulates the user from this by ignoring the dot in front of the symbol name when
