Around 95% of memory is reserved by fadump/capture kernel. All this
memory is freed, one page at a time, on writing '1' to the node
/sys/kernel/fadump_release_mem. On systems with large memory, this
can take a long time to complete, leading to soft lockup warning
messages. To avoid this, add reschedule points at regular intervals.
Also, while memblock_reserve() implicitly takes care of holes in the
given memory range while reserving memory, those holes need to be
taken care of while releasing memory as memory is freed one page at
a time. Add support to skip holes while releasing memory.

To register fadump, boot memory area - the size of low memory chunk that
is required for a kernel to boot successfully when booted with restricted
memory, is assumed to have no holes. But this memory area is currently
not protected from hot-remove operations. So, fadump could fail to
re-register after a memory hot-remove operation, if memory is removed
from boot memory area. To avoid this, ensure that memory from boot
memory area is not hot-removed when fadump is registered.

fadump sets up crash memory ranges to be used for creating PT_LOAD
program headers in elfcore header. Memory chunk RMA_START through
boot memory area size is added as the first memory range because
firmware, at the time of crash, moves this memory chunk to different
location specified during fadump registration making it necessary to
create a separate program header for it with the correct offset.
This memory chunk is skipped while setting up the remaining memory
ranges. But currently, there is possibility that some of this memory
may have duplicate entries like when it is hot-removed and added
again. Ensure that no two memory ranges represent the same memory.

This converts the powerpc VDSO time update function to use the new
interface introduced in commit 576094b7f0 ("time: Introduce new
GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL", 2012-09-11). Where the old interface gave
us the time as of the last update in seconds and whole nanoseconds,
with the new interface we get the nanoseconds part effectively in
a binary fixed-point format with tk->tkr_mono.shift bits to the
right of the binary point.
With the old interface, the fractional nanoseconds got truncated,
meaning that the value returned by the VDSO clock_gettime function
would have about 1ns of jitter in it compared to the value computed
by the generic timekeeping code in the kernel.
The powerpc VDSO time functions (clock_gettime and gettimeofday)
already work in units of 2^-32 seconds, or 0.23283 ns, because that
makes it simple to split the result into seconds and fractional
seconds, and represent the fractional seconds in either microseconds
or nanoseconds. This is good enough accuracy for now, so this patch
avoids changing how the VDSO works or the interface in the VDSO data
page.
This patch converts the powerpc update_vsyscall_old to be called
update_vsyscall and use the new interface. We convert the fractional
second to units of 2^-32 seconds without truncating to whole nanoseconds.
(There is still a conversion to whole nanoseconds for any legacy users
of the vdso_data/systemcfg stamp_xtime field.)
In addition, this improves the accuracy of the computation of tb_to_xs
for those systems with high-frequency timebase clocks (>= 268.5 MHz)
by doing the right shift in two parts, one before the multiplication and
one after, rather than doing the right shift before the multiplication.
(We can't do all of the right shift after the multiplication unless we
use 128-bit arithmetic.)

Lazy-FP/vec context switching also trips this case.
So check for lazy FP and vector before switching RI for restore_math.
Move most of this case out of line.
For threads that do want to restore math registers, the MSR switches are

MSR switches in kernel (similar to soft-EE), but for now at least the

By default, 5% of system RAM is reserved for preserving boot memory.
Alternatively, a user can specify the amount of memory to reserve.
See Documentation/powerpc/firmware-assisted-dump.txt for details. In
addition to the memory reserved for preserving boot memory, some more
memory is reserved, to save HPTE region, CPU state data and ELF core
headers.
Memory Reservation during first kernel looks like below:
Low memory Top of memory
0 boot memory size |
| | |<--Reserved dump area -->|
V V | Permanent Reservation V
+-----------+----------/ /----------+---+----+-----------+----+
| | |CPU|HPTE| DUMP |ELF |
+-----------+----------/ /----------+---+----+-----------+----+
| ^
| |
\ /
-------------------------------------------
Boot memory content gets transferred to
reserved area by firmware at the time of
crash
This implicitly means that the sum of the sizes of boot memory, CPU
state data, HPTE region, DUMP preserving area and ELF core headers
can't be greater than the total memory size. But currently, a user is
allowed to specify any value as boot memory size. So, the above rule
is violated when a boot memory size around 50% of the total available
memory is specified. As the kernel is not handling this currently, it
may lead to undefined behavior. Fix it by setting an upper limit for
boot memory size to 25% of the total available memory. Also, instead
of using memblock_end_of_DRAM(), which doesn't take the holes, if any,
in the memory layout into account, use memblock_phys_mem_size() to
calculate the percentage of total available memory.

Provide an option to create a small section just before the .text

section to match. The linker will tend to put stubs in that section
and not break our relative-to-absolute offset assumptions.

2) One of the threads is woken up. The PLS for this thread will
correctly reflect that it is waking up from deep stop.
3) The thread that has woken up now executes a shallow stop.
4) When some other thread in the core is woken, its PLS will reflect
the shallow stop state.
Thus, the subsequent thread for which the PLS is under-reporting the

Fix this on POWER9 onwards by restoring the LPCR value whatever it was
before executing the stop instruction.

On POWER8, in case of
- nap: both timebase and hypervisor state is retained.
- fast-sleep: timebase is lost. But the hypervisor state is retained.
- winkle: timebase and hypervisor state is lost.
Hence, the current code for handling exit from a idle state assumes
that if the timebase value is retained, then so is the hypervisor
state. Thus, the current code doesn't restore per-core hypervisor
state in such cases.
But that is no longer the case on POWER9 where we do have stop states
in which timebase value is retained, but the hypervisor state is
lost. So we have to ensure that the per-core hypervisor state gets
restored in such cases.
Fix this by ensuring that even in the case when timebase is retained,
we explicitly check if we are waking up from a deep stop that loses
per-core hypervisor state (indicated by cr4 being eq or gt), and if
this is the case, we restore the per-core hypervisor state.

Providing "scv" support to userspace requires kernel support, so it
must be advertised as independently to the base ISA 3 instruction set.
The darn instruction relies on firmware enablement, so it has been
decided to split this out from the core ISA 3 feature as well.

Currently if you disable CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU you'll crash on boot on
a P9. This is because we still set MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX via
ibm,pa-features and MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX is what's used for code patching
in much of the asm code (ie. slb_miss_realmode)
This patch fixes the problem by stopping MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX from being
set from ibm.pa-features.
We may eventually end up removing the CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU option
completely but until then this fixes the issue.

Commit 22d8b3dec2 ("powerpc/kprobes: Emulate instructions on kprobe
handler re-entry") enabled emulating instructions on kprobe re-entry,
rather than single-stepping always. However, we didn't update the single
stepping code to only be run if the emulation fails. Also, we missed
re-enabling preemption if the instruction emulation was successful. Fix
those issues.

Commit 17ed4c8f81 ("powerpc/powernv: Recover correct PACA on wakeup
from a stop on P9 DD1") promises to set the NAPSTATELOST bit in paca
after recovering the correct paca for the thread waking up from stop1
on DD1, so that the GPRs can be correctly restored on the stop exit
path. However, it loads the value 1 into r3, but stores the value in
r0 into NAPSTATELOST(r13).
Fix this by correctly set the NAPSTATELOST bit in paca after
recovering the paca on POWER9 DD1.

In commit dc3106690b ("powerpc: tm: Always use fp_state and vr_state
to store live registers"), a section of code was removed that copied
the current state to checkpointed state. That code should not have been
removed.
When an FP (Floating Point) unavailable is taken inside a transaction,
we need to abort the transaction. This is because at the time of the
tbegin, the FP state is bogus so the state stored in the checkpointed
registers is incorrect. To fix this, we treclaim (to get the
checkpointed GPRs) and then copy the thread_struct FP live state into
the checkpointed state. We then trecheckpoint so that the FP state is
correctly restored into the CPU.
The copying of the FP registers from live to checkpointed is what was
missing.
This simplifies the logic slightly from the original patch.
tm_reclaim_thread() will now always write the checkpointed FP
state. Either the checkpointed FP state will be written as part of
the actual treclaim (in tm.S), or it'll be a copy of the live
state. Which one we use is based on MSR[FP] from userspace.
Similarly for VMX.
