powerpc/mm/hash: Don't memset pgd table if not needed
We need to zero-out pgd table only if we share the slab cache with
pud/pmd level caches. With the support of 4PB, we don't share the slab
cache anymore. Instead of removing the code completely hide it within
an #ifdef. We don't need to do this with any other page table level,
because they all allocate table of double the size and we take of
initializing the first half corrrectly during page table zap.

This is showing up since OPTPROBES is now enabled with CONFIG_PREEMPT.
trampoline_probe_handler() considers itself to be a special kprobe
handler for kretprobes. In doing so, it expects to be called from
kprobe_handler() on a trap, and re-enables preemption before returning a
non-zero return value so as to suppress any subsequent processing of the
trap by the kprobe_handler().
However, with optprobes, we don't deal with special handlers (we ignore
the return code) and just try to re-enable preemption causing the above
trace.
To address this, modify trampoline_probe_handler() to not be special.
The only additional processing done in kprobe_handler() is to emulate
the instruction (in this case, a 'nop'). We adjust the value of
regs->nip for the purpose and delegate the job of re-enabling
preemption and resetting current kprobe to the probe handlers
(kprobe_handler() or optimized_callback()).

powerpc/powernv/npu: Do not try invalidating 32bit table when 64bit table is enabled
GPUs and the corresponding NVLink bridges get different PEs as they
have separate translation validation entries (TVEs). We put these PEs
to the same IOMMU group so they cannot be passed through separately.
So the iommu_table_group_ops::set_window/unset_window for GPUs do set
tables to the NPU PEs as well which means that iommu_table's list of
attached PEs (iommu_table_group_link) has both GPU and NPU PEs linked.
This list is used for TCE cache invalidation.
The problem is that NPU PE has just a single TVE and can be programmed
to point to 32bit or 64bit windows while GPU PE has two (as any other
PCI device). So we end up having an 32bit iommu_table struct linked to
both PEs even though only the 64bit TCE table cache can be invalidated
on NPU. And a relatively recent skiboot detects this and prints
errors.
This changes GPU's iommu_table_group_ops::set_window/unset_window to
make sure that NPU PE is only linked to the table actually used by the
hardware. If there are two tables used by an IOMMU group, the NPU PE
will use the last programmed one which with the current use scenarios
is expected to be a 64bit one.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Work around TEXASR bug in fake suspend state
This works around a hardware bug in "Nimbus" POWER9 DD2.2 processors,
where the contents of the TEXASR can get corrupted while a thread is
in fake suspend state. The workaround is for the instruction emulation
code to use the value saved at the most recent guest exit in real
suspend mode. We achieve this by simply not saving the TEXASR into
the vcpu struct on an exit in fake suspend state. We also have to
take care to set the orig_texasr field only on guest exit in real
suspend state.
This also means that on guest entry in fake suspend state, TEXASR
will be restored to the value it had on the last exit in real suspend
state, effectively counteracting any hardware-caused corruption. This
works because TEXASR may not be written in suspend state.
With this, the guest might see the wrong values in TEXASR if it reads
it while in suspend state, but will see the correct value in
non-transactional state (e.g. after a treclaim), and treclaim will
work correctly.
With this workaround, the code will actually run slightly faster, and
will operate correctly on systems without the TEXASR bug (since TEXASR
may not be written in suspend state, and is only changed by failure
recording, which will have already been done before we get into fake
suspend state). Therefore these changes are not made subject to a CPU
feature bit.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Work around transactional memory bugs in POWER9
POWER9 has hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread
reconfiguration (changes to hardware SMT mode). Specifically, the core
does not have enough storage to store a complete checkpoint of all the
architected state for all four threads. The DD2.2 version of POWER9
includes hardware modifications designed to allow hypervisor software
to implement workarounds for these problems. This patch implements
those workarounds in KVM code so that KVM guests see a full, working
transactional memory implementation.
The problems center around the use of TM suspended state, where the
CPU has a checkpointed state but execution is not transactional. The
workaround is to implement a "fake suspend" state, which looks to the
guest like suspended state but the CPU does not store a checkpoint.
In this state, any instruction that would cause a transition to
transactional state (rfid, rfebb, mtmsrd, tresume) or would use the
checkpointed state (treclaim) causes a "soft patch" interrupt (vector
0x1500) to the hypervisor so that it can be emulated. The trechkpt
instruction also causes a soft patch interrupt.
On POWER9 DD2.2, we avoid returning to the guest in any state which
would require a checkpoint to be present. The trechkpt in the guest
entry path which would normally create that checkpoint is replaced by
either a transition to fake suspend state, if the guest is in suspend
state, or a rollback to the pre-transactional state if the guest is in
transactional state. Fake suspend state is indicated by a flag in the
PACA plus a new bit in the PSSCR. The new PSSCR bit is write-only and
reads back as 0.
On exit from the guest, if the guest is in fake suspend state, we still
do the treclaim instruction as we would in real suspend state, in order
to get into non-transactional state, but we do not save the resulting
register state since there was no checkpoint.
Emulation of the instructions that cause a softpatch interrupt is
handled in two paths. If the guest is in real suspend mode, we call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() to handle the cases where the guest is
transitioning to transactional state. This is called before we do the
treclaim in the guest exit path; because we haven't done treclaim, we
can get back to the guest with the transaction still active. If the
instruction is a case that kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() doesn't
handle, or if the guest is in fake suspend state, then we proceed to
do the complete guest exit path and subsequently call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation() in host context with the MMU on. This handles
all the cases including the cases that generate program interrupts
(illegal instruction or TM Bad Thing) and facility unavailable
interrupts.
The emulation is reasonably straightforward and is mostly concerned
with checking for exception conditions and updating the state of
registers such as MSR and CR0. The treclaim emulation takes care to
ensure that the TEXASR register gets updated as if it were the guest
treclaim instruction that had done failure recording, not the treclaim
done in hypervisor state in the guest exit path.
With this, the KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM capability returns true (1) even if
transactional memory is not available to host userspace.

powerpc/powernv: Provide a way to force a core into SMT4 mode
POWER9 processors up to and including "Nimbus" v2.2 have hardware
bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration.
One of these bugs has a workaround which is to get the core into
SMT4 state temporarily. This workaround is only needed when
running bare-metal.
This patch provides a function which gets the core into SMT4 mode
by preventing threads from going to a stop state, and waking up
those which are already in a stop state. Once at least 3 threads
are not in a stop state, the core will be in SMT4 and we can
continue.
To do this, we add a "dont_stop" flag to the paca to tell the
thread not to go into a stop state. If this flag is set,
power9_idle_stop() just returns immediately with a return value
of 0. The pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function does the following:
1. Set the dont_stop flag for each thread in the core, except
ourselves (in fact we use an atomic_inc() in case more than
one thread is calling this function concurrently).
2. See how many threads are awake, indicated by their
requested_psscr field in the paca being 0. If this is at
least 3, skip to step 5.
3. Send a doorbell interrupt to each thread that was seen as
being in a stop state in step 2.
4. Until at least 3 threads are awake, scan the threads to which
we sent a doorbell interrupt and check if they are awake now.
This relies on the following properties:
- Once dont_stop is non-zero, requested_psccr can't go from zero to
non-zero, except transiently (and without the thread doing stop).
- requested_psscr being zero guarantees that the thread isn't in
a state-losing stop state where thread reconfiguration could occur.
- Doing stop with a PSSCR value of 0 won't be a state-losing stop
and thus won't allow thread reconfiguration.
- Once threads_per_core/2 + 1 (i.e. 3) threads are awake, the core
must be in SMT4 mode, since SMT modes are powers of 2.
This does add a sync to power9_idle_stop(), which is necessary to
provide the correct ordering between setting requested_psscr and
checking dont_stop. The overhead of the sync should be unnoticeable
compared to the latency of going into and out of a stop state.
Because some objected to incurring this extra latency on systems where
the XER[SO] bug is not relevant, I have put the test in
power9_idle_stop inside a feature section. This means that
pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() WILL NOT WORK correctly on systems
without the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit set, and will
probably hang the system.
In order to cater for uses where the caller has an operation that
has to be done while the core is in SMT4, the core continues to be
kept in SMT4 after pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function returns,
until the pnv_power9_force_smt4_release() function is called.
It undoes the effect of step 1 above and allows the other threads
to go into a stop state.

This update will be lost when the interrupt returns and the store

Fix this by ensuring hard interrupts are disabled before modifying
irq_happened.
This could cause any maskable asynchronous interrupt to get lost, but
it was noticed on P9 SMP system doing RDMA NVMe target over 100GbE,
so very high external interrupt rate and high IPI rate. The hang was

When running virtualised the powerpc kernel is able to run the system

AT_BASE_PLATFORM is an AUXV entry that we export to userspace for use

Although we don't support compat mode when using DT CPU features, and

based code always sets it even when we're running bare metal. That
means the lack of AT_BASE_PLATFORM is a user-visible artifact of the
fact that the kernel is using DT CPU features, which we don't want.
So set it in the DT CPU features code also.
