kvm: ppc: booke: check range page invalidation progress on page setup
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix typo in saving DSCR
KVM: nVMX: fix shadow on EPT
When the MM code is invalidating a range of pages, it calls the KVM
kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() notifier function, which calls
kvm_unmap_hva_range(), which arranges to flush all the TLBs for guest pages.
However, the Linux PTEs for the range being flushed are still valid at
that point. We are not supposed to establish any new references to pages
in the range until the ...range_end() notifier gets called.
The PPC-specific KVM code doesn't get any explicit notification of that;
instead, we are supposed to use mmu_notifier_retry() to test whether we
are or have been inside a range flush notifier pair while we have been
referencing a page.
This patch calls the mmu_notifier_retry() while mapping the guest
page to ensure we are not referencing a page when in range invalidation.
This call is inside a region locked with kvm->mmu_lock, which is the
same lock that is called by the KVM MMU notifier functions, thus
ensuring that no new notification can proceed while we are in the
locked region.

This fixes a typo in the code that saves the guest DSCR (Data Stream
Control Register) into the kvm_vcpu_arch struct on guest exit. The
effect of the typo was that the DSCR value was saved in the wrong place,
so changes to the DSCR by the guest didn't persist across guest exit
and entry, and some host kernel memory got corrupted.

irq_exit() is now called on the irq stack, which can trigger a switch to
the softirq stack from the irq stack. If an interrupt happens at that
point, we will not properly detect the re-entrancy and clobber the
original return context on the irq stack.
This fixes it. The side effect is to prevent all nesting from softirq
stack to irq stack even in the "safe" case but it's simpler that way and
matches what x86_64 does.

When we do a treclaim or trecheckpoint we end up running with userspace
PPR and DSCR values. Currently we don't do anything special to avoid
running with user values which could cause a severe performance
degradation.
This patch moves the PPR and DSCR save and restore around treclaim and
trecheckpoint so that we run with user values for a much shorter period.
More care is taken with the PPR as it's impact is greater than the DSCR.
This is similar to user exceptions, where we run HTM_MEDIUM early to
ensure that we don't run with a userspace PPR values in the kernel.

Commit 4df4899 "Add power8 EBB support" included a bug in the handling
of the FAB_CRESP_MATCH and FAB_TYPE_MATCH fields.
These values are pulled out of the event code using EVENT_THR_CTL_SHIFT,
however we were then or'ing that value directly into MMCR1.
This meant we were failing to set the FAB fields correctly, and also
potentially corrupting the value for PMC4SEL. Leading to no counts for
the FAB events and incorrect counts for PMC4.
The fix is simply to shift left the FAB value correctly before or'ing it
with MMCR1.

Under heavy (DLPAR?) stress, we tripped this panic() in
arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c::iommu_init_table():
page = alloc_pages_node(nid, GFP_ATOMIC, get_order(sz));
if (!page)
panic("iommu_init_table: Can't allocate %ld bytes\n", sz);
Before the panic() we got a page allocation failure for an order-2
allocation. There appears to be memory free, but perhaps not in the
ATOMIC context. I looked through all the call-sites of
iommu_init_table() and didn't see any obvious reason to need an ATOMIC
allocation. Most call-sites in fact have an explicit GFP_KERNEL
allocation shortly before the call to iommu_init_table(), indicating we
are not in an atomic context. There is some indirection for some paths,
but I didn't see any locks indicating that GFP_KERNEL is inappropriate.
With this change under the same conditions, we have not been able to
reproduce the panic.

The csum_partial_copy_generic() function saves the PowerPC non-volatile
r14, r15, and r16 registers for the main checksum-and-copy loop.
Unfortunately, it fails to restore them upon error exit from this loop,
which results in silent corruption of these registers in the presumably

Previous commit 46723bfa540... introduced a new config option
HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE that ended up breaking memory hot-remove for ppc
when sparse vmemmap is not defined.
This patch defines HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE for ppc and adds the call to
register_page_bootmem_info_node. Without this we get a BUG_ON for memory
hot remove in put_page_bootmem().
This also adds a stub for register_page_bootmem_memmap to allow ppc to build
with sparse vmemmap defined. Leaving this as a stub is fine since the same
vmemmap addresses are also handled in vmemmap_populate and as such are
properly mapped.

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly
instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated
softirq stack.
This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call
irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to
the irq stack.
This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making
irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack.

Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.
Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.
Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe. But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.
To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not. And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two
regressions:
- The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors
supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the
old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades
- The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for
a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having
all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and
increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has
shared processors.
This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede
to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without
all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

This branch contains mostly additions and changes to platform enablement
and SoC-level drivers. Since there's sometimes a dependency on device-tree
changes, there's also a fair amount of those in this branch.
Pieces worth mentioning are:
- Mbus driver for Marvell platforms, allowing kernel configuration
and resource allocation of on-chip peripherals.
- Enablement of the mbus infrastructure from Marvell PCI-e drivers.
- Preparation of MSI support for Marvell platforms.
- Addition of new PCI-e host controller driver for Tegra platforms
- Some churn caused by sharing of macro names between i.MX 6Q and 6DL
platforms in the device tree sources and header files.
- Various suspend/PM updates for Tegra, including LP1 support.
- Versatile Express support for MCPM, part of big little support.
- Allwinner platform support for A20 and A31 SoCs (dual and quad Cortex-A7)
- OMAP2+ support for DRA7, a new Cortex-A15-based SoC.
The code that touches other architectures are patches moving
MSI arch-specific functions over to weak symbols and removal of
ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI, acked by PCI maintainers.

Commit 24ec2125f3 ("powerpc/xmon: Use cpumask iterator to avoid warning")
replaced a loop from 0 to NR_CPUS-1 with a for_each_possible_cpu() loop,
which means that if the last possible cpu is in xmon, we print the
wrong value for the end of the range. For example, if 4 cpus are
possible, NR_CPUS is 128, and all cpus are in xmon, we print "0-7f"
rather than "0-3". The code also assumes that the set of possible
cpus is contiguous, which may not necessarily be true.
This fixes the code to check explicitly for contiguity, and to print
the ending value correctly.

"As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
(--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities. Everyone

Main changes on the perf kernel side:
- Performance optimizations:
. for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.

. Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
'perf record', by David Ahern.
. Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
one can do:

. Honor target pid / tid options when analyzing a file, by David Ahern.
. Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.
- 'perf report/top' enhancements:
. Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
By Adrian Hunter.
. Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
of call graphs, by Greg Price.
. Simplify symbol filtering by doing it at machine class level,
by Adrian Hunter.
. Add support for callchains in the gtk UI, by Namhyung Kim.
. Add --objdump option to 'perf top', by Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
- 'perf kvm' enhancements:
. Add option to print only events that exceed a specified time
duration, by David Ahern.
. Improve stack trace printing, by David Ahern.
. Update documentation of the live command, by David Ahern
. Add perf kvm stat live mode that combines aspects of 'perf kvm
stat' record and report, by David Ahern.
. Add option to analyze specific VM in perf kvm stat report, by
David Ahern.
. Do not require /lib/modules/* on a guest, by Jason Wessel.
- 'perf script' enhancements:
. Fix symbol offset computation for some dsos, by David Ahern.
. Fix named threads support, by David Ahern.
. Don't install scripting files files when perl/python support
is disabled, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
- 'perf test' enhancements:
. Add various improvements and fixes to the "vmlinux matches
kallsyms" 'perf test' entry, related to the /proc/kcore
annotation feature. By Adrian Hunter.
. Add sample parsing test, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add test for reading object code, by Adrian Hunter.
. Add attr record group sampling test, by Jiri Olsa.
. Misc testing infrastructure improvements and other details,
by Jiri Olsa.
- 'perf list' enhancements:
. Skip unsupported hardware events, by Namhyung Kim.
. List pmu events, by Andi Kleen.
- 'perf diff' enhancements:
. Add support for more than two files comparison, by Jiri Olsa.
- 'perf sched' enhancements:
. Various improvements, including removing reliance on some
scheduler tracepoints that provide the same information as the
PERF_RECORD_{FORK,EXIT} events. By David Ahern.
. Remove odd build stall by moving a large struct initialization
from a local variable to a global one, by Namhyung Kim.
- 'perf stat' enhancements:
. Add --initial-delay option to skip measuring for a defined
startup phase, by Andi Kleen.
- Generic perf tooling infrastructure/plumbing changes:
. Tidy up sample parsing validation, by Adrian Hunter.
. Fix up jobserver setup in libtraceevent Makefile.
by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
. Debug improvements, by Adrian Hunter.
. Fix correlation of samples coming after PERF_RECORD_EXIT event,
by David Ahern.
. Improve robustness of the topology parsing code,
by Stephane Eranian.
. Add group leader sampling, that allows just one event in a group
to sample while the other events have just its values read,
by Jiri Olsa.
. Add support for a new modifier "D", which requests that the
event, or group of events, be pinned to the PMU.
By Michael Ellerman.
. Support callchain sorting based on addresses, by Andi Kleen
. Prep work for multi perf data file storage, by Jiri Olsa.
. libtraceevent cleanups, by Namhyung Kim.
And lots and lots of other fixes and code reorganizations that did not
make it into the list, see the shortlog, diffstat and the Git log for
details!"
