commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream.
The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

The OF_RECONFIG notifier callback uses a different structure depending
on whether it is a node change or a property change. This is silly, and
not very safe. Rework the code to use the same data structure regardless
of the type of notifier.

commit 969b7b208f7408712a3526856e4ae60ad13f6928 upstream.
As per ISA, for 4k base page size we compare 14..65 bits of VA specified
with the entry_VA in tlb. That implies we need to make sure we do a
tlbie with all the possible 4k va we used to access the 16MB hugepage.
With 64k base page size we compare 14..57 bits of VA. Hence we cannot
ignore the lower 24 bits of va while tlbie .We also cannot tlb
invalidate a 16MB entry with just one tlbie instruction because
we don't track which va was used to instantiate the tlb entry.

commit fc0479557572375100ef16c71170b29a98e0d69a upstream.
If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect
or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash
table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages
in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for
these pages.
We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a
pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte,
that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in
the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries.
Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should
invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.

commit 09567e7fd44291bfc08accfdd67ad8f467842332 upstream.
We have a bug in our hugepage handling which exhibits as an infinite
loop of hash faults. If the fault is being taken in the kernel it will
typically trigger the softlockup detector, or the RCU stall detector.
The bug is as follows:
1. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_HUGE_TLB | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
2. Slice code converts the slice psize to 16M.
3. The code on lines 539-540 of slice.c in slice_get_unmapped_area()
synchronises the mm->context with the paca->context. So the paca slice
mask is updated to include the 16M slice.
3. Either:
* mmap() fails because there are no huge pages available.
* mmap() succeeds and the mapping is then munmapped.
In both cases the slice psize remains at 16M in both the paca & mm.
4. mmap(0xa0000000, ..., MAP_FIXED | MAP_ANONYMOUS ..)
5. The slice psize is converted back to 64K. Because of the check on line 539
of slice.c we DO NOT update the paca->context. The paca slice mask is now
out of sync with the mm slice mask.
6. User/kernel accesses 0xa0000000.
7. The SLB miss handler slb_allocate_realmode() **uses the paca slice mask**
to create an SLB entry and inserts it in the SLB.
18. With the 16M SLB entry in place the hardware does a hash lookup, no entry
is found so a data access exception is generated.
19. The data access handler calls do_page_fault() -> handle_mm_fault().
10. __handle_mm_fault() creates a THP mapping with do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page().
11. The hardware retries the access, there is still nothing in the hash table
so once again a data access exception is generated.
12. hash_page() calls into __hash_page_thp() and inserts a mapping in the
hash. Although the THP mapping maps 16M the hashing is done using 64K
as the segment page size.
13. hash_page() returns immediately after calling __hash_page_thp(), skipping
over the code at line 1125. Resulting in the mismatch between the
paca->context and mm->context not being detected.
14. The hardware retries the access, the hash it generates using the 16M
SLB entry does NOT match the hash we inserted.
15. We take another data access and go into __hash_page_thp().
16. We see a valid entry in the hpte_slot_array and so we call updatepp()
which succeeds.
17. Goto 14.
We could fix this in two ways. The first would be to remove or modify
the check on line 539 of slice.c.
The second option is to cause the check of paca psize in hash_page() on
line 1125 to also be done for THP pages.
We prefer the latter, because the check & update of the paca psize is
not done until we know it's necessary. It's also done only on the
current cpu, so we don't need to IPI all other cpus.
Without further rearranging the code, the simplest fix is to pull out
the code that checks paca psize and call it in two places. Firstly for
THP/hugetlb, and secondly for other mappings as before.
Thanks to Dave Jones for trinity, which originally found this bug.

commit c177c81e09e517bbf75b67762cdab1b83aba6976 upstream.
Currently hugepage migration is available for all archs which support
pmd-level hugepage, but testing is done only for x86_64 and there're
bugs for other archs. So to avoid breaking such archs, this patch
limits the availability strictly to x86_64 until developers of other
archs get interested in enabling this feature.
Simply disabling hugepage migration on non-x86_64 archs is not enough to
fix the reported problem where sys_move_pages() hits the BUG_ON() in
follow_page(FOLL_GET), so let's fix this by checking if hugepage
migration is supported in vma_migratable().

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.
Thanks to Ben who helped me to debug this issue and find the root cause.

just added two patches today which are the wiring up of lockref for
powerpc, which for some reason fell through the cracks last time and
is trivial.
The highlights are, in addition to a bunch of bug fixes:
- Reworked Machine Check handling on kernels running without a
hypervisor (or acting as a hypervisor). Provides hooks to handle
some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
etc...
- Support for retrieving memory error information from the service
processor on IBM servers running without a hypervisor and routing
them to the memory poison infrastructure.
- _PAGE_NUMA support on server processors
- 32-bit BookE relocatable kernel support
- FSL e6500 hardware tablewalk support
- A bunch of new/revived board support
- FSL e6500 deeper idle states and altivec powerdown support

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.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.
The one instance where we add an include for init.h covers off
a case where that file was implicitly getting it from another
header which itself didn't need it.

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
unnecessary using of LOAD_REG_ADDR_PIC.

relocatable kernel
This is always true for a non-relocatable kernel. Otherwise the kernel
would get stuck. But for a relocatable kernel, it seems a little
complicated. When booting a relocatable kernel, we just align the
kernel start addr to 64M and map the PAGE_OFFSET from there. The
relocation will base on this virtual address. But if this address
is not the same as the memstart_addr, we will have to change the
map of PAGE_OFFSET to the real memstart_addr and do another relocation
again.

We use the tlb1 entries to map low mem to the kernel space. In the
current code, it assumes that the first tlb entry would cover the
kernel image. But this is not true for some special cases, such as
when we run a relocatable kernel above the 64M or set
CONFIG_KERNEL_START above 64M. So we choose to switch to address
space 1 before setting these tlb entries.

This is based on the codes in the head_44x.S. The difference is that
the init tlb size we used is 64M. With this patch we can only load the
kernel at address between memstart_addr ~ memstart_addr + 64M. We will
fix this restriction in the following patches.

The e500v1 doesn't implement the MAS7, so we should avoid to access
this register on that implementations. In the current kernel, the
access to MAS7 are protected by either CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT or
MMU_FTR_BIG_PHYS. Since some code are executed before the code
patching, we have to use CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT in these cases.

We want to make sure we don't use these function when updating a pte
or pmd entry that have a valid hpte entry, because these functions
don't invalidate them. So limit the check to _PAGE_PRESENT bit.
Numafault core changes use these functions for updating _PAGE_NUMA bits.
That should be ok because when _PAGE_NUMA is set we can be sure that
hpte entries are not present.

And in flush_hugetlb_page(), don't check whether vma is NULL after
we've already dereferenced it.
This was found by Dan using static analysis as described here:
https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2013-November/113161.html
We currently get away with this because the callers that currently pass
NULL for vma seem to be 32-bit-only (e.g. highmem, and
CONFIG_DEBUG_PGALLOC in pgtable_32.c) Hugetlb is currently 64-bit only,
so we never saw a NULL vma here.

Commit fba2369e6ceb (mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on powerpc architecture)
has a bug in slice_scan_available() where we compare an unsigned long
(high_slices) against a shifted int. As a result, comparisons against
the top 32 bits of high_slices (representing the top 32TB) always
returns 0 and the top of our mmap region is clamped at 32TB
This also breaks mmap randomisation since the randomised address is
always up near the top of the address space and it gets clamped down
to 32TB.
