The syscall exit code that branches to restore_math is quite heavy on
Book3S, consisting of 2 mtmsr instructions. Threads that don't use both
FP and vector can get caught here if the kernel ever uses FP or vector.
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
still suboptimal. Future direction may be to use a soft-RI bit to avoid
MSR switches in kernel (similar to soft-EE), but for now at least the
no-restore
POWER9 context switch rate increases by about 5% due to sched_yield(2)
return performance. I haven't constructed a test to measure the syscall
cost.

After bc3551257a ("powerpc/64: Allow for relocation-on interrupts from
guest to host"), a getppid() system call goes from 307 cycles to 358
cycles (+17%) on POWER8. This is due significantly to the scratch SPR
used by the hypercall check.
It turns out there are a some volatile registers common to both system
call and hypercall (in particular, r12, cr0, ctr), which can be used to
avoid the SPR and some other overheads. This brings getppid to 320 cycles
(+4%).
Testing hcall entry performance by running "sc 1" in guest userspace
before this patch is 854 cycles, afterwards is 826. Also a small win
there.
POWER9 syscall is improved by about the same amount, hcall not tested.

Currently we map the whole linear mapping with PAGE_KERNEL_X. Instead we
should check if the page overlaps the kernel text and only then add
PAGE_KERNEL_X.
Note that we still use 1G pages if they're available, so this will
typically still result in a 1G executable page at KERNELBASE. So this fix is
primarily useful for catching stray branches to high linear mapping addresses.
Without this patch, we can execute at 1G in xmon using:

The i-side 0111b machine check, which is "Instruction Fetch to foreign

The POWER9 processor core considers host real addresses with a

by the copy and paste instructions. The copy and paste instruction
pair can be used to invoke the Nest accelerators via the Virtual

It is an error for any regular load/store or ifetch to go to a foreign

relocation is off, a machine check exception. It is possible to trigger
this machine check by branching to a foreign address with MSR[IR]=0.

Introduce a helper pgtable_gfp_flags() which
just returns the current gfp flags and adds
__GFP_ACCOUNT to account for page table allocation.
The generic helper is added to include/asm/pgalloc.h
and has two variants - WARNING ugly bits ahead
1. If the header is included from a module, no check
for mm == &init_mm is done, since init_mm is not
exported
2. For kernel includes, the check is done and required
see (3e79ec7 arch: x86: charge page tables to kmemcg)
The fundamental assumption is that no module should be
doing pgd/pud/pmd and pte alloc's on behalf of init_mm
directly.
NOTE: This adds an overhead to pmd/pud/pgd allocations
similar to x86. The other alternative was to implement
pmd_alloc_kernel/pud_alloc_kernel and pgd_alloc_kernel
with their offset variants.

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.

Very large kernels may require linker stubs for branches from HEAD
text code. The linker may place these stubs before the HEAD text
sections, which breaks the assumption that HEAD text is located at 0
(or the .text section being located at 0x7000/0x8000 on Book3S
kernels).
Provide an option to create a small section just before the .text
section with an empty 256 - 4 bytes, and adjust the start of the .text
section to match. The linker will tend to put stubs in that section
and not break our relative-to-absolute offset assumptions.
This causes a small waste of space on common kernels, but allows large
kernels to build and boot. For now, it is an EXPERT config option,

The current code in the cpuidle-powernv intialization only allows deep
stop states (indicated by OPAL_PM_STOP_INST_DEEP) which lose timebase
(indicated by OPAL_PM_TIMEBASE_STOP). This assumption goes back to
POWER8 time where deep states used to lose the timebase. However, on
POWER9, we do have stop states that are deep (they lose hypervisor
state) but retain the timebase.
Fix the initialization code in the cpuidle-powernv driver to allow
such deep states.
Further, there is a bug in cpuidle-powernv driver with
CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT=n where we end up incrementing the nr_idle_states
even if a platform idle state which loses time base was not added to
the cpuidle table.
Fix this by ensuring that the nr_idle_states variable gets incremented

On Power9 DD1 due to a hardware bug the Power-Saving Level Status
field (PLS) of the PSSCR for a thread waking up from a deep state can
under-report if some other thread in the core is in a shallow stop
state. The scenario in which this can manifest is as follows:
1) All the threads of the core are in deep stop.
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
wakeup state will not restore the hypervisor resources.
Hence, on DD1 systems, use the Requested Level (RL) field as a
workaround to restore the contents of the hypervisor resources on the
wakeup from the stop state.
