This was caused by that 'sd->groups == NULL' after building groups, which
was caused by the empty 'sd->span'.
The cpu's domain contained nothing because the cpu was assigned to a wrong
node, due to the following unfortunate sequence of events:
1. The hypervisor sent a topology update to the guest OS, to notify changes
to the cpu-node mapping. However, the update was actually redundant - i.e.,
the "new" mapping was exactly the same as the old one.
2. Due to this, the 'updated_cpus' mask turned out to be empty after exiting
the 'for-loop' in arch_update_cpu_topology().
3. So we ended up calling stop-machine() with an empty cpumask list, which made
stop-machine internally elect cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask), i.e., CPU0 as
the cpu to run the payload (the update_cpu_topology() function).
4. This causes update_cpu_topology() to be run by CPU0. And since 'updates'
is kzalloc()'ed inside arch_update_cpu_topology(), update_cpu_topology()
finds update->cpu as well as update->new_nid to be 0. In other words, we
end up assigning CPU0 (and eventually its siblings) to node 0, incorrectly.
Along with the following wrong updating, it causes the sched-domain rebuild
code to break and crash the system.
Fix this by skipping the topology update in cases where we find that
the topology has not actually changed in reality (ie., spurious updates).

PCI suspend/resume work and misc bits.
We have generic code like the one in get_futex_key that assume that
a local_irq_disable prevents a parallel THP split. Support that by
adding a dummy smp call function after setting _PAGE_SPLITTING. Code
paths like get_user_pages_fast still need to check for _PAGE_SPLITTING
after disabling IRQ which indicate that a parallel THP splitting is
ongoing. Now if they don't find _PAGE_SPLITTING set, then we can be
sure that parallel split will now block in pmdp_splitting flush
until we enables IRQ

While bolted handlers (including e6500) do not need to deal with a TLB
miss recursively causing another TLB miss, nested TLB misses can still
happen with crit/mc/debug exceptions -- so we still need to honor

We don't need to spend time modifying it in the TLB miss fastpath,

Once special level interrupts are supported, we may take nested TLB
misses -- so allow the same thread to acquire the lock recursively.
The lock will not be effective against the nested TLB miss handler
trying to write the same entry as the interrupted TLB miss handler, but
that's also a problem on non-threaded CPUs that lack TLB write
conditional. This will be addressed in the patch that enables crit/mc
support by invalidating the TLB on return from level exceptions.

The memory remove code for powerpc/pseries should call remove_memory()
so that we are holding the hotplug_memory lock during memory remove
operations.
This patch updates the memory node remove handler to call remove_memory()
and adds a ppc_md.remove_memory() entry to handle pseries specific work
that is called from arch_remove_memory().
During memory remove in pseries_remove_memblock() we have to stay with
removing memory one section at a time. This is needed because of how memory
resources are handled. During memory add for pseries (via the probe file in
sysfs) we add memory one section at a time which gives us a memory resource
for each section. Future patches will aim to address this so will not have
to remove memory one section at a time.

pte_update() is a powerpc-ism used to change the bits of a PTE
when the access permission is being restricted (a flush is
potentially needed).
It uses atomic operations on when needed and handles the hash
synchronization on hash based processors.
It is currently only used to clear PTE bits and so the current
implementation doesn't provide a way to also set PTE bits.
The new _PAGE_NUMA bit, when set, is actually restricting access
so it must use that function too, so this change adds the ability
for pte_update() to also set bits.
We will use this later to set the _PAGE_NUMA bit.

On p8 systems, with relocation on exception feature enabled we are seeing
kdump kernel hang at interrupt vector 0xc*4400. The reason is, with this
feature enabled, exception are raised with MMU (IR=DR=1) ON with the
default offset of 0xc*4000. Since exception is raised in virtual mode it
requires the vector region to be executable without which it fails to
fetch and execute instruction at 0xc*4xxx. For default kernel since kernel
is loaded at real 0, the htab mappings sets the entire kernel text region
executable. But for relocatable kernel (e.g. kdump case) we only copy
interrupt vectors down to real 0 and never marked that region as
executable because in p7 and below we always get exception in real mode.
This patch fixes this issue by marking htab mapping range as executable
that overlaps with the interrupt vector region for relocatable kernel.

There have been some weird bugs in the past where the kernel tried to associate
threads of the same core to different NUMA nodes, and things went haywire after
that point (as expected).
But unfortunately, root-causing such issues have been quite challenging, due to
the lack of appropriate debug checks in the kernel. These bugs usually lead to
some odd soft-lockups in the scheduler's build-sched-domain code in the CPU
hotplug path, which makes it very hard to trace it back to the incorrect
cpu-to-node mappings.
So add appropriate debug checks to catch such invalid cpu-to-node mappings
as early as possible.

On POWER platforms, the hypervisor can notify the guest kernel about dynamic
changes in the cpu-numa associativity (VPHN topology update). Hence the
cpu-to-node mappings that we got from the firmware during boot, may no longer
be valid after such updates. This is handled using the arch_update_cpu_topology()
hook in the scheduler, and the sched-domains are rebuilt according to the new
mappings.
But unfortunately, at the moment, CPU hotplug ignores these updated mappings
and instead queries the firmware for the cpu-to-numa relationships and uses
them during CPU online. So the kernel can end up assigning wrong NUMA nodes
to CPUs during subsequent CPU hotplug online operations (after booting).
Further, a particularly problematic scenario can result from this bug:
On POWER platforms, the SMT mode can be switched between 1, 2, 4 (and even 8)
threads per core. The switch to Single-Threaded (ST) mode is performed by
offlining all except the first CPU thread in each core. Switching back to
SMT mode involves onlining those other threads back, in each core.
Now consider this scenario:
1. During boot, the kernel gets the cpu-to-node mappings from the firmware
and assigns the CPUs to NUMA nodes appropriately, during CPU online.
2. Later on, the hypervisor updates the cpu-to-node mappings dynamically and
communicates this update to the kernel. The kernel in turn updates its
cpu-to-node associations and rebuilds its sched domains. Everything is
fine so far.
3. Now, the user switches the machine from SMT to ST mode (say, by running
ppc64_cpu --smt=1). This involves offlining all except 1 thread in each
core.
4. The user then tries to switch back from ST to SMT mode (say, by running
ppc64_cpu --smt=4), and this involves onlining those threads back. Since
CPU hotplug ignores the new mappings, it queries the firmware and tries to
associate the newly onlined sibling threads to the old NUMA nodes. This
results in sibling threads within the same core getting associated with
different NUMA nodes, which is incorrect.
The scheduler's build-sched-domains code gets thoroughly confused with this
and enters an infinite loop and causes soft-lockups, as explained in detail
in commit 3be7db6ab (powerpc: VPHN topology change updates all siblings).
So to fix this, use the numa_cpu_lookup_table to remember the updated
cpu-to-node mappings, and use them during CPU hotplug online operations.
Further, we also need to ensure that all threads in a core are assigned to a
common NUMA node, irrespective of whether all those threads were online during
the topology update. To achieve this, we take care not to use cpu_sibling_mask()
since it is not hotplug invariant. Instead, we use cpu_first_sibling_thread()
and set up the mappings manually using the 'threads_per_core' value for that
particular platform. This helps us ensure that we don't hit this bug with any
combination of CPU hotplug and SMT mode switching.

Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com>
There are a few things that make the existing hw tablewalk handlers
unsuitable for e6500:
- Indirect entries go in TLB1 (though the resulting direct entries go in
TLB0).
- It has threads, but no "tlbsrx." -- so we need a spinlock and
a normal "tlbsx". Because we need this lock, hardware tablewalk
is mandatory on e6500 unless we want to add spinlock+tlbsx to
the normal bolted TLB miss handler.
- TLB1 has no HES (nor next-victim hint) so we need software round robin
(TODO: integrate this round robin data with hugetlb/KVM)
- The existing tablewalk handlers map half of a page table at a time,
because IBM hardware has a fixed 1MiB indirect page size. e6500
has variable size indirect entries, with a minimum of 2MiB.
So we can't do the half-page indirect mapping, and even if we
could it would be less efficient than mapping the full page.
- Like on e5500, the linear mapping is bolted, so we don't need the
overhead of supporting nested tlb misses.
Note that hardware tablewalk does not work in rev1 of e6500.
We do not expect to support e6500 rev1 in mainline Linux.

There is no barrier between something like ioremap() writing to
a PTE, and returning the value to a caller that may then store the
pointer in a place that is visible to other CPUs. Such callers
generally don't perform barriers of their own.
Even if callers of ioremap() and similar things did use barriers,
the most logical choise would be smp_wmb(), which is not
architecturally sufficient when BookE hardware tablewalk is used. A
full sync is specified by the architecture.
For userspace mappings, OTOH, we generally already have an lwsync due
to locking, and if we occasionally take a spurious fault due to not
having a full sync with hardware tablewalk, it will not be fatal
because we will retry rather than oops.

When booting above the 64M for a secondary cpu, we also face the
same issue as the boot cpu that the PAGE_OFFSET map two different
physical address for the init tlb and the final map. So we have to use
switch_to_as1/restore_to_as0 between the conversion of these two
maps. When restoring to as0 for a secondary cpu, we only need to
return to the caller. So add a new parameter for function
restore_to_as0 for this purpose.
Use LOAD_REG_ADDR_PIC to get the address of variables which may
be used before we set the final map in cams for the secondary cpu.
Move the setting of cams a bit earlier in order to avoid the

This is always true for a non-relocatable kernel. Otherwise the kernel

complicated. When booting a relocatable kernel, we just align the
kernel start addr to 64M and map the PAGE_OFFSET from there. The

Simple fixes for sparse warnings in this file.
Resolves:
arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:198:24:
warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:1157:5:
warning: symbol 'hot_add_node_scn_to_nid' was not declared.
Should it be static?

Activating CONFIG_PIN_TLB allows access to the 24 first Mbytes of
memory at bootup instead of 8. It is needed for "big" kernels for
instance when activating CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT. This needs to be
taken into account in init_32 too, otherwise memory allocation soon
fails after startup.

The commit e0908085fc ("powerpc/8xx: Fix
regression introduced by cache coherency rewrite") is not needed
anymore. The issue was because dcbst wrongly sets the store bit when
causing a DTLB error, but this is now fixed by commit
0a2ab51ffb ("powerpc/8xx: Fixup DAR from
buggy dcbX instructions.") which handles the buggy dcbx instructions on
data page faults on the 8xx.

Topic branch for commits that the KVM tree might want to pull
in separately.

The current VFIO-on-POWER implementation supports only user mode
driven mapping, i.e. QEMU is sending requests to map/unmap pages.
However this approach is really slow, so we want to move that to KVM.
Since H_PUT_TCE can be extremely performance sensitive (especially with
network adapters where each packet needs to be mapped/unmapped) we chose
to implement that as a "fast" hypercall directly in "real
mode" (processor still in the guest context but MMU off).
To be able to do that, we need to provide some facilities to
access the struct page count within that real mode environment as things
like the sparsemem vmemmap mappings aren't accessible.
This adds an API function realmode_pfn_to_page() to get page struct when
MMU is off.
This adds to MM a new function put_page_unless_one() which drops a page
if counter is bigger than 1. It is going to be used when MMU is off
(for example, real mode on PPC64) and we want to make sure that page
release will not happen in real mode as it may crash the kernel in
a horrible way.
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and CONFIG_FLATMEM are supported.
