This delay was in the very first OPAL console commit 6.5 years ago,

The RAW console does not need writes to be atomic, so relax
opal_put_chars to be able to do partial writes, and implement an
_atomic variant which does not take a spinlock. This API is used
in xmon, so the less locking that is used, the better chance there
is that a crash can be debugged.

OPAL console writes do not have to synchronously flush firmware /
hardware buffers unless they are going through the udbg path.
Remove the unconditional flushing from opal_put_chars. Flush if
there was no space in the buffer as an optimisation (callers loop
waiting for success in that case). udbg flushing is moved to
udbg_opal_putc.

opal_put_chars deals with partial writes because in OPALv1,
opal_console_write_buffer_space did not work correctly. That firmware
is not supported.
This reworks the opal_put_chars code to no longer deal with partial
writes by turning them into full writes. Partial write handling is still
supported in terms of what gets returned to the caller, but it may not
go to the console atomically. A warning message is printed in this
case.
This allows console flushing to be moved out of the opal_write_lock
spinlock. That could cause the lock to be held for long periods if the
console is busy (especially if it was being spammed by firmware),
which is dangerous because the lock is taken by xmon to debug the
system. Flushing outside the lock improves the situation a bit.

A new console flushing firmware API was introduced to replace event
polling loops, and implemented in opal-kmsg with affddff69c55e
("powerpc/powernv: Add a kmsg_dumper that flushes console output on
panic"), to flush the console in the panic path.
The OPAL console driver has other situations where interrupts are off
and it needs to flush the console synchronously. These still use a
polling loop.
So move the opal-kmsg flush code to opal_flush_console, and use the
new function in opal-kmsg and opal_put_chars.

Use the more refined and tested event polling loop from opal_put_chars
as the fallback console flush in the opal-kmsg path. This loop is used
by the console driver today, whereas the opal-kmsg fallback is not
likely to have been used for years.
Use WARN_ONCE rather than a printk when the fallback is invoked to
prepare for moving the console flush into a common function.

The OPAL console driver does not delay in case it gets OPAL_BUSY or
OPAL_BUSY_EVENT from firmware.
It can't yet be made to sleep because it is called under spinlock,
but it can be changed to the standard OPAL_BUSY loop form, and a
delay added to keep it from hitting the firmware too frequently.

The intention here is to consume and discard the remaining buffer
upon error. This works if there has not been a previous partial write.
If there has been, then total_len is no longer total number of bytes
to copy. total_len is always "bytes left to copy", so it should be
added to written bytes.
This code may not be exercised any more if partial writes will not be
hit, but this is a small bugfix before a larger change.

This patch is based on the previous VMX patch on memcmp().
To optimize ppc64 memcmp() with VMX instruction, we need to think about
the VMX penalty brought with: If kernel uses VMX instruction, it needs
to save/restore current thread's VMX registers. There are 32 x 128 bits
VMX registers in PPC, which means 32 x 16 = 512 bytes for load and store.
The major concern regarding the memcmp() performance in kernel is KSM,
who will use memcmp() frequently to merge identical pages. So it will
make sense to take some measures/enhancement on KSM to see whether any
improvement can be done here. Cyril Bur indicates that the memcmp() for
KSM has a higher possibility to fail (unmatch) early in previous bytes
in following mail.
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/817322/#1773629
And I am taking a follow-up on this with this patch.
Per some testing, it shows KSM memcmp() will fail early at previous 32
bytes. More specifically:
- 76% cases will fail/unmatch before 16 bytes;
- 83% cases will fail/unmatch before 32 bytes;
- 84% cases will fail/unmatch before 64 bytes;
So 32 bytes looks a better choice than other bytes for pre-checking.
The early failure is also true for memcmp() for non-KSM case. With a
non-typical call load, it shows ~73% cases fail before first 32 bytes.
This patch adds a 32 bytes pre-checking firstly before jumping into VMX
operations, to avoid the unnecessary VMX penalty. It is not limited to
KSM case. And the testing shows ~20% improvement on memcmp() average
execution time with this patch.
And note the 32B pre-checking is only performed when the compare size
is long enough (>=4K currently) to allow VMX operation.

Currently memcmp() 64bytes version in powerpc will fall back to .Lshort
(compare per byte mode) if either src or dst address is not 8 bytes aligned.
It can be opmitized in 2 situations:
1) if both addresses are with the same offset with 8 bytes boundary:
memcmp() can compare the unaligned bytes within 8 bytes boundary firstly
and then compare the rest 8-bytes-aligned content with .Llong mode.
2) If src/dst addrs are not with the same offset of 8 bytes boundary:
memcmp() can align src addr with 8 bytes, increment dst addr accordingly,
then load src with aligned mode and load dst with unaligned mode.
This patch optmizes memcmp() behavior in the above 2 situations.
Tested with both little/big endian. Performance result below is based on
little endian.
Following is the test result with src/dst having the same offset case:
(a similar result was observed when src/dst having different offset):

With SPARSEMEM config enabled, we make sure that we don't add sections beyond
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS range. This results in not building vmemmap mapping for
range beyond max range. But our memblock layer looks the device tree and create
mapping for the full memory range. Prevent this by checking against
MAX_PHSYSMEM_BITS when doing memblock_add.
We don't do similar check for memeblock_reserve_range. If reserve range is beyond
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS we expect that to be configured with 'nomap'. Any other
reserved range should come from existing memblock ranges which we already
filtered while adding.
This avoids crash as below when running on a system with system ram config above

Similarly as we just did for 32-bit, add phony targets for generating

Because the allmodconfig logic just sets every symbol to M or Y, it
has the effect of always generating a 64-bit config, because
CONFIG_PPC64 becomes Y.
So to make it easier for folks to test 32-bit code, provide a phony
defconfig target that generates a 32-bit allmodconfig.
The 32-bit port has several mutually exclusive CPU types, we choose
the Book3S variants as that's what the help text in Kconfig says is
most common.

When I added the spectre_v2 information in sysfs, I included the
availability of the ori31 speculation barrier.
Although the ori31 barrier can be used to mitigate v2, it's primarily
intended as a spectre v1 mitigation. Spectre v2 is mitigated by
hardware changes.
So rework the sysfs files to show the ori31 information in the
spectre_v1 file, rather than v2.
Currently we display eg:
$ grep . spectre_v*
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization
spectre_v2:Mitigation: Indirect branch cache disabled, ori31 speculation barrier enabled
After:
$ grep . spectre_v*
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization, ori31 speculation barrier enabled

There is an asynchronous aspect to smp_send_nmi_ipi. The caller waits
for all CPUs to call in to the handler, but it does not wait for
completion of the handler. This is a needless complication, so remove
it and always wait synchronously.
The synchronous wait allows the caller to easily time out and clear
the wait for completion (zero nmi_ipi_busy_count) in the case of badly
behaved handlers. This would have prevented the recent smp_send_stop
NMI IPI bug from causing the system to hang.

When the masked interrupt handler clears MSR[EE] for an interrupt in
the PACA_IRQ_MUST_HARD_MASK set, it does not set PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS.
This makes them get out of synch.
With that taken into account, it's only low level irq manipulation
(and interrupt entry before reconcile) where they can be out of synch.
This makes the code less surprising.
It also allows the IRQ replay code to rely on the IRQ_HARD_DIS value
and not have to mtmsrd again in this case (e.g., for an external
interrupt that has been masked). The bigger benefit might just be
that there is not such an element of surprise in these two bits of
state.

Applications need the ability to associate an address-range with some
key and latter revert to its initial default key. Pkey-0 comes close to
providing this function but falls short, because the current
implementation disallows applications to explicitly associate pkey-0 to
the address range.
Lets make pkey-0 less special and treat it almost like any other key.
Thus it can be explicitly associated with any address range, and can be
freed. This gives the application more flexibility and power. The
ability to free pkey-0 must be used responsibily, since pkey-0 is
associated with almost all address-range by default.
Even with this change pkey-0 continues to be slightly more special
from the following point of view.
(a) it is implicitly allocated.
(b) it is the default key assigned to any address-range.
(c) its permissions cannot be modified by userspace.
NOTE: (c) is specific to powerpc only. pkey-0 is associated by default
with all pages including kernel pages, and pkeys are also active in
kernel mode. If any permission is denied on pkey-0, the kernel running
in the context of the application will be unable to operate.
Tested on powerpc.

execute-only key is allocated dynamically. This is a problem. When a
thread implicitly creates an execute-only key, and resets the UAMOR
for that key, the UAMOR value does not percolate to all the other
threads. Any other thread may ignorantly change the permissions on the
key. This can cause the key to be not execute-only for that thread.
Preallocate the execute-only key and ensure that no thread can change
the permission of the key, by resetting the corresponding bit in
UAMOR.

Key allocation and deallocation has the side effect of programming the
UAMOR/AMR/IAMR registers. This is wrong, since its the responsibility of
the application and not that of the kernel, to modify the permission on
the key.
Do not modify the pkey registers at key allocation/deallocation.
This patch also fixes a bug where a sys_pkey_free() resets the UAMOR
bits of the key, thus making its permissions unmodifiable from user
space. Later if the same key gets reallocated from a different thread
this thread will no longer be able to change the permissions on the key.

Currently in a multithreaded application, a key allocated by one
thread is not usable by other threads. By "not usable" we mean that
other threads are unable to change the access permissions for that
key for themselves.
When a new key is allocated in one thread, the corresponding UAMOR
bits for that thread get enabled, however the UAMOR bits for that key
for all other threads remain disabled.
Other threads have no way to set permissions on the key, and the
current default permissions are that read/write is enabled for all
keys, which means the key has no effect for other threads. Although
that may be the desired behaviour in some circumstances, having all
threads able to control their permissions for the key is more
flexible.
The current behaviour also differs from the x86 behaviour, which is
problematic for users.
To fix this, enable the UAMOR bits for all keys, at process
creation (in start_thread(), ie exec time). Since the contents of
UAMOR are inherited at fork, all threads are capable of modifying the
permissions on any key.
This is technically an ABI break on powerpc, but pkey support is fairly
new on powerpc and not widely used, and this brings us into
line with x86.

This logic was shared between multiple tests, but now that we have
removed all but one of them we can just move it into that test.

Paste on POWER9 only works to accelerators and not on real memory. So
these tests just generate a SIGILL.
So just delete them.

This is a test of the ISA 3.0 "copy" instruction. That instruction has
an L field, which if set to 1 specifies that "the instruction
identifies the beginning of a move group" (pp 858). That's also
referred to as "copy first" vs "copy".
In ISA 3.0B the copy instruction does not have an L field, and the
corresponding bit in the instruction must be set to 1.
This test is generating a "copy" instruction, not a "copy first", and
so on Power9 (which implements 3.0B), this results in an illegal
instruction.
So just drop the test entirely. We still have copy_first_unaligned to
test the "copy first" behaviour.

Function atomic_inc_unless_negative() returns a bool to indicate
success/failure. However cxl_adapter_context_get() wrongly compares
the return value against '>=0' which will always be true. The patch
fixes this comparison to '==0' there by also fixing this compile time
warning:
drivers/misc/cxl/main.c:290 cxl_adapter_context_get()
warn: 'atomic_inc_unless_negative(&adapter->contexts_num)' is unsigned

The threshold at which it becomes more efficient to coalesce a range
of ATSDs into a single per-PID ATSD is currently not well understood
due to a lack of real-world work loads. This patch adds a debugfs
parameter allowing the threshold to be altered at runtime in order to
aid future development and refinement of the value.
