If a transaction is rolled back, the Target Address Register (TAR), Processor
Priority Register (PPR) and Data Stream Control Register (DSCR) should be
restored to the checkpointed values before the transaction began. Any changes
to these SPRs inside the transaction should not be visible in the abort
handler.
Currently Linux doesn't save or restore the checkpointed TAR, PPR or DSCR. If
we preempt a processes inside a transaction which has modified any of these, on
process restore, that same transaction may be aborted we but we won't see the
checkpointed versions of these SPRs.
This adds checkpointed versions of these SPRs to the thread_struct and adds the
save/restore of these three SPRs to the treclaim/trechkpt code.
Without this if any of these SPRs are modified during a transaction, users may
incorrectly see a speculated SPR value even if the transaction is aborted.

This moves us to save the Target Address Register (TAR) a earlier in
__switch_to. It introduces a new function save_tar() to do this.
We need to save the TAR earlier as we will overwrite it in the transactional
memory reclaim/recheckpoint path. We are going to do this in a subsequent
patch which will fix saving the TAR register when it's modified inside a
transaction.

When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the
siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today
for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in
update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly
update all thread siblings during a topology change.
Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in
init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop.
This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread
moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will
have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group
struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without
the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform
with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes).
When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach
the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will
be stuck at this point.
The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef0 (v3.9).

While restoring BARs for one specific PCI device, the pci_dev
instance should have been released. So it's not reliable to use
the pci_dev instance on restoring BARs. However, we still need
some information (e.g. PCIe capability position, header type) from
the pci_dev instance. So we have to store those information to
EEH device in advance.

When EEH error happens to one specific PE, some devices with drivers
supporting EEH won't except hotplug on the device. However, there
might have other deivces without driver, or with driver without EEH
support. For the case, we need do partial hotplug in order to make
sure that the PE becomes absolutely quite during reset. Otherise,
the PE reset might fail and leads to failure of error recovery.
The current code doesn't handle that 'mixed' case properly, it either
uses the error callbacks to the drivers, or tries hotplug, but doesn't
handle a PE (EEH domain) composed of a combination of the two.
The patch intends to support so-called "partial" hotplug for EEH:
Before we do reset, we stop and remove those PCI devices without
EEH sensitive driver. The corresponding EEH devices are not detached
from its PE, but with special flag. After the reset is done, those
EEH devices with the special flag will be scanned one by one.

When we do normal hotplug, the PE (shadow EEH structure) shouldn't be
kept around.
However, we need to keep it if the hotplug an artifial one caused by
EEH errors recovery.
Since we remove EEH device through the PCI hook pcibios_release_device(),
the flag "purge_pe" passed to various functions is meaningless. So the patch
removes the meaningless flag and introduce new flag "EEH_PE_KEEP"
to save the PE while doing hotplug during EEH error recovery.

Module CRCs are implemented as absolute symbols that get resolved by
a linker script. We build an intermediate .o that contains an
unresolved symbol for each CRC. genksysms parses this .o, calculates
the CRCs and writes a linker script that "resolves" the symbols to
the calculated CRC.
Unfortunately the ppc64 relocatable kernel sees these CRCs as symbols
that need relocating and relocates them at boot. Commit d4703aef
(module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)
added a hook to reverse the bogus relocations. Part of this patch
created a symbol at 0x0:
# head -2 /proc/kallsyms
0000000000000000 T reloc_start
c000000000000000 T .__start
This reloc_start symbol is causing lots of confusion to perf. It
thinks reloc_start is a massive function that stretches from 0x0 to
0xc000000000000000 and we get various cryptic errors out of perf,
including:
problem incrementing symbol count, skipping event
This patch removes the reloc_start linker script label and instead
defines it as PHYSICAL_START. We also need to wrap it with
CONFIG_PPC64 because the ppc32 kernel can set a non zero
PHYSICAL_START at compile time and we wouldn't want to subtract
it from the CRCs in that case.

1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
Make this explicit for all architectures.
2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
are very fast and small that e.g. net code seems to make. Remove
this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
assume.
3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
like net/sunrpc does will never sleep. Remove an unconditinal
might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
PROVE_LOCKING is not set).
4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
caller to sleep. Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
PROVE_LOCKING is set.

The MPIC global timer is a hardware timer inside the Freescale PIC complying
with OpenPIC standard. When the specified interval times out, the hardware
timer generates an interrupt. The driver currently is only tested on fsl chip,
but it can potentially support other global timers complying to OpenPIC
standard.
The two independent groups of global timer on fsl chip, group A and group B,
are identical in their functionality, except that they appear at different
locations within the PIC register map. The hardware timer can be cascaded to
create timers larger than the default 31-bit global timers. Timer cascade
fields allow configuration of up to two 63-bit timers. But These two groups

On LPAR systems we need to inform the hypervisor that we are using the
EBB registers. We do this by setting a bit in the Virtual Processor Area

Add support for EBB (Event Based Branches) on 64-bit book3s. See the
included documentation for more details.
EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a
specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be
used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the
inner loop.
Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a
proliferation of PMU callbacks.

KVMTEST is a macro which checks whether we are taking an exception from
guest context, if so we branch out of line and eventually call into the
KVM code to handle the switch.
When running real guests on bare metal (HV KVM) the hardware ensures
that we never take a relocation on exception when transitioning from
guest to host. For PR KVM we disable relocation on exceptions ourself in
kvmppc_core_init_vm(), as of commit a413f47 "Disable relocation on
exceptions whenever PR KVM is active".
So convert all the RELON macros to use NOTEST, and drop the remaining
KVM_HANDLER() definitions we have for 0xe40 and 0xe80.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the powerpc uses of the __cpuinit macros. There
are no __CPUINIT users in assembly files in powerpc.

With this, the guest can use 1TB segments as well as 256MB segments.
Since we now have the situation where a single emulated guest segment
could correspond to multiple shadow segments (as the shadow segments
are still 256MB segments), this adds a new kvmppc_mmu_flush_segment()
to scan for all shadow segments that need to be removed.
This restructures the guest HPT (hashed page table) lookup code to
use the correct hashing and matching functions for HPTEs within a
1TB segment. We use the standard hpt_hash() function instead of
open-coding the hash calculation, and we use HPTE_V_COMPARE() with
an AVPN value that has the B (segment size) field included. The
calculation of avpn is done a little earlier since it doesn't change
in the loop starting at the do_second label.
The computation in kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_esid_to_vsid() changes so that
it returns a 256MB VSID even if the guest SLB entry is a 1TB entry.
This is because the users of this function are creating 256MB SLB
entries. We set a new VSID_1T flag so that entries created from 1T
segments don't collide with entries from 256MB segments.

This will allow me to call functions that have multiple
arguments if fastpath fails. This is required to support ticket
mutexes, because they need to be able to pass an extra argument
to the fail function.
Originally I duplicated the functions, by adding
__mutex_fastpath_lock_retval_arg. This ended up being just a
duplication of the existing function, so a way to test if
fastpath was called ended up being better.
This also cleaned up the reservation mutex patch some by being
able to call an atomic_set instead of atomic_xchg, and making it
easier to detect if the wrong unlock function was previously
used.

We now have pmd entries covering 16MB range and the PMD table double its original size.
We use the second half of the PMD table to deposit the pgtable (PTE page).
The depoisted PTE page is further used to track the HPTE information. The information
include [ secondary group | 3 bit hidx | valid ]. We use one byte per each HPTE entry.
With 16MB hugepage and 64K HPTE we need 256 entries and with 4K HPTE we need
4096 entries. Both will fit in a 4K PTE page. On hugepage invalidate we need to walk
the PTE page and invalidate all valid HPTEs.
This patch implements necessary arch specific functions for THP support and also
hugepage invalidate logic. These PMD related functions are intentionally kept
similar to their PTE counter-part.

THP code does PTE page allocation along with large page request and deposit them
for later use. This is to ensure that we won't have any failures when we split

secondary bit information for the HPTEs. We use the second half
of the pmd table to save the deposted PTE page.

If a hash bucket gets full, we "evict" a more/less random entry from it.
When we do that we don't invalidate the TLB (hpte_remove) because we assume
the old translation is still technically "valid". This implies that when
we are invalidating or updating pte, even if HPTE entry is not valid
we should do a tlb invalidate. With hugepages, we need to pass the correct
actual page size value for tlb invalidation.
This change update the patch 0608d69246
"powerpc/mm: Always invalidate tlb on hpte invalidate and update" to handle
transparent hugepages correctly.
