Merge our topic branch shared with KVM. In particular this includes the
rewrite of the idle code into C.
|
|
Reimplement Book3S idle code in C, moving POWER7/8/9 implementation
speific HV idle code to the powernv platform code.
Book3S assembly stubs are kept in common code and used only to save
the stack frame and non-volatile GPRs before executing architected
idle instructions, and restoring the stack and reloading GPRs then
returning to C after waking from idle.
The complex logic dealing with threads and subcores, locking, SPRs,
HMIs, timebase resync, etc., is all done in C which makes it more
maintainable.
This is not a strict translation to C code, there are some
significant differences:
- Idle wakeup no longer uses the ->cpu_restore call to reinit SPRs,
but saves and restores them itself.
- The optimisation where EC=ESL=0 idle modes did not have to save GPRs
or change MSR is restored, because it's now simple to do. ESL=1
sleeps that do not lose GPRs can use this optimization too.
- KVM secondary entry and cede is now more of a call/return style
rather than branchy. nap_state_lost is not required because KVM
always returns via NVGPR restoring path.
- KVM secondary wakeup from offline sequence is moved entirely into
the offline wakeup, which avoids a hwsync in the normal idle wakeup
path.
Performance measured with context switch ping-pong on different
threads or cores, is possibly improved a small amount, 1-3% depending
on stop state and core vs thread test for shallow states. Deep states
it's in the noise compared with other latencies.
KVM improvements:
- Idle sleepers now always return to caller rather than branch out
to KVM first.
- This allows optimisations like very fast return to caller when no
state has been lost.
- KVM no longer requires nap_state_lost because it controls NVGPR
save/restore itself on the way in and out.
- The heavy idle wakeup KVM request check can be moved out of the
normal host idle code and into the not-performance-critical offline
code.
- KVM nap code now returns from where it is called, which makes the
flow a bit easier to follow.

This patch implements Kernel Userspace Access Protection for
book3s/32.
Due to limitations of the processor page protection capabilities,
the protection is only against writing. read protection cannot be
achieved using page protection.
The previous patch modifies the page protection so that RW user
pages are RW for Key 0 and RO for Key 1, and it sets Key 0 for
both user and kernel.
This patch changes userspace segment registers are set to Ku 0
and Ks 1. When kernel needs to write to RW pages, the associated
segment register is then changed to Ks 0 in order to allow write
access to the kernel.
In order to avoid having the read all segment registers when
locking/unlocking the access, some data is kept in the thread_struct
and saved on stack on exceptions. The field identifies both the
first unlocked segment and the first segment following the last
unlocked one. When no segment is unlocked, it contains value 0.
As the hash_page() function is not able to easily determine if a
protfault is due to a bad kernel access to userspace, protfaults
need to be handled by handle_page_fault when KUAP is set.

This patch implements a framework for Kernel Userspace Access
Protection.
Then subarches will have the possibility to provide their own
implementation by providing setup_kuap() and
allow/prevent_user_access().
Some platforms will need to know the area accessed and whether it is
accessed from read, write or both. Therefore source, destination and
size and handed over to the two functions.
mpe: Rename to allow/prevent rather than unlock/lock, and add
read/write wrappers. Drop the 32-bit code for now until we have an
implementation for it. Add kuap to pt_regs for 64-bit as well as
32-bit. Don't split strings, use pr_crit_ratelimited().

Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2
so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it.
This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the
reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address
of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys().
At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info,
TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch.
It also allows to get rid of a couple of
'#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY()
and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

thread_info is not anymore in the stack, so the entire stack
can now be used.
There is also no risk anymore of corrupting task_cpu(p) with a
stack overflow so the patch removes the test.
When doing this, an explicit test for NULL stack pointer is
needed in validate_sp() as it is not anymore implicitely covered
by the sizeof(thread_info) gap.
In the meantime, with the previous patch all pointers to the stacks
are not anymore pointers to thread_info so this patch changes them
to void*

This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.
Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
- It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
overflows.
- Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
making a number of attacks more difficult.
This has the following consequences:
- thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
- The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
CONFIG_SMP is active.
- thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.
This patch:
- Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
- Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
- Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
- Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without
including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
between ASM constants and C constants.
- Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
argument.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Notable changes:
- A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of
fairly complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
- Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for
each process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27%
speedup for our context switch benchmark on Power9.
- Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print
more debug information when they occur, and try to continue running
by flushing the SLB and reloading, rather than treating them as
fatal.
- Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
- Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on
64-bit Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system
memory, otherwise the percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
- Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task
canary.
- Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
- Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are
presented to us as a single SMT8 core.
- A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE
flags.
- Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface,
allowing guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
- Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we
need to use a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
And many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

PPR is the odd register out when it comes to interrupt handling, it is
saved in current->thread.ppr while all others are saved on the stack.
The difficulty with this is that accessing thread.ppr can cause a SLB
fault, but the SLB fault handler implementation in C change had
assumed the normal exception entry handlers would not cause an SLB
fault.
Fix this by allocating room in the interrupt stack to save PPR.

Commit 6c1719942e19 ("powerpc/of: Remove useless register save/restore

into OpenFirmware. Commit e31aa453bbc4 ("powerpc: Use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE
only for constants on 64-bit") did the same for rtas.
This means we don't need to save the extra stack space and can use
the common SWITCH_FRAME_SIZE.
There were already no users of _SRR0 and _SRR1 so we can remove them
too.

This adds a new hypercall, H_ENTER_NESTED, which is used by a nested
hypervisor to enter one of its nested guests. The hypercall supplies
register values in two structs. Those values are copied by the level 0
(L0) hypervisor (the one which is running in hypervisor mode) into the
vcpu struct of the L1 guest, and then the guest is run until an
interrupt or error occurs which needs to be reported to L1 via the
hypercall return value.
Currently this assumes that the L0 and L1 hypervisors are the same
endianness, and the structs passed as arguments are in native
endianness. If they are of different endianness, the version number
check will fail and the hcall will be rejected.
Nested hypervisors do not support indep_threads_mode=N, so this adds
code to print a warning message if the administrator has set
indep_threads_mode=N, and treat it as Y.

When the 'regs' field was added to struct kvm_vcpu_arch, the code
was changed to use several of the fields inside regs (e.g., gpr, lr,
etc.) but not the ccr field, because the ccr field in struct pt_regs
is 64 bits on 64-bit platforms, but the cr field in kvm_vcpu_arch is
only 32 bits. This changes the code to use the regs.ccr field
instead of cr, and changes the assembly code on 64-bit platforms to
use 64-bit loads and stores instead of 32-bit ones.

This functionality was tentatively added in the past
(commit 6533b7c16ee5 ("powerpc: Initial stack protector
(-fstack-protector) support")) but had to be reverted
(commit f2574030b0e3 ("powerpc: Revert the initial stack
protector support") because of GCC implementing it differently
whether it had been built with libc support or not.
Now, GCC offers the possibility to manually set the
stack-protector mode (global or tls) regardless of libc support.
This time, the patch selects HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR only if
-mstack-protector-guard=tls is supported by GCC.
On PPC32, as register r2 points to current task_struct at
all time, the stack_canary located inside task_struct can be
used directly by using the following GCC options:
-mstack-protector-guard=tls
-mstack-protector-guard-reg=r2
-mstack-protector-guard-offset=offsetof(struct task_struct, stack_canary))
The protector is disabled for prom_init and bootx_init as
it is too early to handle it properly.

Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling
backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls:
Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit
architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the
compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense
on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise),
and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit
architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility.
The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved
from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h:
old new
--- ---
compat_time_t old_time32_t
struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32
struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32
struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32
ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32()
get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32()
put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32()
compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32()
compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32()
As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the
instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular,
not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those
will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version
of the respective interfaces.
I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are
still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we
will need a replacement at all.
This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can
be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures
to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to
SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.

This patch moves nip/ctr/lr/xer registers from scattered places in
kvm_vcpu_arch to pt_regs structure.
cr register is "unsigned long" in pt_regs and u32 in vcpu->arch.
It will need more consideration and may move in later patches.

Currently, the HV KVM guest entry/exit code adds the timebase offset
from the vcore struct to the timebase on guest entry, and subtracts
it on guest exit. Which is fine, except that it is possible for
userspace to change the offset using the SET_ONE_REG interface while
the vcore is running, as there is only one timebase offset per vcore
but potentially multiple VCPUs in the vcore. If that were to happen,
KVM would subtract a different offset on guest exit from that which
it had added on guest entry, leading to the timebase being out of sync
between cores in the host, which then leads to bad things happening
such as hangs and spurious watchdog timeouts.
To fix this, we add a new field 'tb_offset_applied' to the vcore struct
which stores the offset that is currently applied to the timebase.
This value is set from the vcore tb_offset field on guest entry, and
is what is subtracted from the timebase on guest exit. Since it is
zero when the timebase offset is not applied, we can simplify the
logic in kvmhv_start_timing and kvmhv_accumulate_time.
In addition, we had secondary threads reading the timebase while
running concurrently with code on the primary thread which would
eventually add or subtract the timebase offset from the timebase.
This occurred while saving or restoring the DEC register value on
the secondary threads. Although no specific incorrect behaviour has
been observed, this is a race which should be fixed. To fix it, we
move the DEC saving code to just before we call kvmhv_commence_exit,
and the DEC restoring code to after the point where we have waited
for the primary thread to switch the MMU context and add the timebase
offset. That way we are sure that the timebase contains the guest
timebase value in both cases.

We have some C code that we call into from real mode where we cannot
take any exceptions. Though the C functions themselves are mostly safe,
if these functions are traced, there is a possibility that we may take
an exception. For instance, in certain conditions, the ftrace code uses
WARN(), which uses a 'trap' to do its job.
For such scenarios, introduce a new field in paca 'ftrace_enabled',
which is checked on ftrace entry before continuing. This field can then
be set to zero to disable/pause ftrace, and set to a non-zero value to
resume ftrace.

All the current architecture specific defines for these
are the same. Refactor these common defines to a common
header file.
The new common linux/compat_time.h is also useful as it
will eventually be used to hold all the defines that
are needed for compat time types that support non y2038
safe types. New architectures need not have to define these
new types as they will only use new y2038 safe syscalls.
This file can be deleted after y2038 when we stop supporting
non y2038 safe syscalls.
The patch also requires an operation similar to:

unnecessary when running on non-virtualised platforms. One field from

POWER9 has hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread
reconfiguration (changes to hardware SMT mode). Specifically, the core
does not have enough storage to store a complete checkpoint of all the
architected state for all four threads. The DD2.2 version of POWER9
includes hardware modifications designed to allow hypervisor software
to implement workarounds for these problems. This patch implements
those workarounds in KVM code so that KVM guests see a full, working
transactional memory implementation.
The problems center around the use of TM suspended state, where the
CPU has a checkpointed state but execution is not transactional. The
workaround is to implement a "fake suspend" state, which looks to the
guest like suspended state but the CPU does not store a checkpoint.
In this state, any instruction that would cause a transition to
transactional state (rfid, rfebb, mtmsrd, tresume) or would use the
checkpointed state (treclaim) causes a "soft patch" interrupt (vector
0x1500) to the hypervisor so that it can be emulated. The trechkpt
instruction also causes a soft patch interrupt.
On POWER9 DD2.2, we avoid returning to the guest in any state which
would require a checkpoint to be present. The trechkpt in the guest
entry path which would normally create that checkpoint is replaced by
either a transition to fake suspend state, if the guest is in suspend
state, or a rollback to the pre-transactional state if the guest is in
transactional state. Fake suspend state is indicated by a flag in the
PACA plus a new bit in the PSSCR. The new PSSCR bit is write-only and
reads back as 0.
On exit from the guest, if the guest is in fake suspend state, we still
do the treclaim instruction as we would in real suspend state, in order
to get into non-transactional state, but we do not save the resulting
register state since there was no checkpoint.
Emulation of the instructions that cause a softpatch interrupt is
handled in two paths. If the guest is in real suspend mode, we call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() to handle the cases where the guest is
transitioning to transactional state. This is called before we do the
treclaim in the guest exit path; because we haven't done treclaim, we
can get back to the guest with the transaction still active. If the
instruction is a case that kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() doesn't
handle, or if the guest is in fake suspend state, then we proceed to
do the complete guest exit path and subsequently call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation() in host context with the MMU on. This handles
all the cases including the cases that generate program interrupts
(illegal instruction or TM Bad Thing) and facility unavailable
interrupts.
The emulation is reasonably straightforward and is mostly concerned
with checking for exception conditions and updating the state of
registers such as MSR and CR0. The treclaim emulation takes care to
ensure that the TEXASR register gets updated as if it were the guest
treclaim instruction that had done failure recording, not the treclaim
done in hypervisor state in the guest exit path.
With this, the KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM capability returns true (1) even if
transactional memory is not available to host userspace.

POWER9 processors up to and including "Nimbus" v2.2 have hardware
bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration.
One of these bugs has a workaround which is to get the core into
SMT4 state temporarily. This workaround is only needed when
running bare-metal.
This patch provides a function which gets the core into SMT4 mode
by preventing threads from going to a stop state, and waking up
those which are already in a stop state. Once at least 3 threads
are not in a stop state, the core will be in SMT4 and we can
continue.
To do this, we add a "dont_stop" flag to the paca to tell the
thread not to go into a stop state. If this flag is set,
power9_idle_stop() just returns immediately with a return value
of 0. The pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function does the following:
1. Set the dont_stop flag for each thread in the core, except
ourselves (in fact we use an atomic_inc() in case more than
one thread is calling this function concurrently).
2. See how many threads are awake, indicated by their
requested_psscr field in the paca being 0. If this is at
least 3, skip to step 5.
3. Send a doorbell interrupt to each thread that was seen as
being in a stop state in step 2.
4. Until at least 3 threads are awake, scan the threads to which
we sent a doorbell interrupt and check if they are awake now.
This relies on the following properties:
- Once dont_stop is non-zero, requested_psccr can't go from zero to
non-zero, except transiently (and without the thread doing stop).
- requested_psscr being zero guarantees that the thread isn't in
a state-losing stop state where thread reconfiguration could occur.
- Doing stop with a PSSCR value of 0 won't be a state-losing stop
and thus won't allow thread reconfiguration.
- Once threads_per_core/2 + 1 (i.e. 3) threads are awake, the core
must be in SMT4 mode, since SMT modes are powers of 2.
This does add a sync to power9_idle_stop(), which is necessary to
provide the correct ordering between setting requested_psscr and
checking dont_stop. The overhead of the sync should be unnoticeable
compared to the latency of going into and out of a stop state.
Because some objected to incurring this extra latency on systems where
the XER[SO] bug is not relevant, I have put the test in
power9_idle_stop inside a feature section. This means that
pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() WILL NOT WORK correctly on systems
without the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit set, and will
probably hang the system.
In order to cater for uses where the caller has an operation that
has to be done while the core is in SMT4, the core continues to be
kept in SMT4 after pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function returns,
until the pnv_power9_force_smt4_release() function is called.
It undoes the effect of step 1 above and allows the other threads
to go into a stop state.

The fallback RFI flush is used when firmware does not provide a way
to flush the cache. It's a "displacement flush" that evicts useful
data by displacing it with an uninteresting buffer.
The flush has to take care to work with implementation specific cache
replacment policies, so the recipe has been in flux. The initial
slow but conservative approach is to touch all lines of a congruence
class, with dependencies between each load. It has since been
determined that a linear pattern of loads without dependencies is
sufficient, and is significantly faster.
Measuring the speed of a null syscall with RFI fallback flush enabled
gives the relative improvement:
P8 - 1.83x
P9 - 1.75x
The flush also becomes simpler and more adaptable to different cache
geometries.

Merge our fixes branch from the 4.15 cycle.
Unusually the fixes branch saw some significant features merged,
notably the RFI flush patches, so we want the code in next to be
tested against that, to avoid any surprises when the two are merged.
There's also some other work on the panic handling that was reverted
in fixes and we now want to do properly in next, which would conflict.
And we also fix a few other minor merge conflicts.

This works on top of the single escalation support. When in single
escalation, with this change, we will keep the escalation interrupt
disabled unless the VCPU is in H_CEDE (idle). In any other case, we
know the VCPU will be rescheduled and thus there is no need to take
escalation interrupts in the host whenever a guest interrupt fires.

The prodded flag is only cleared at the beginning of H_CEDE,
so every time we have an escalation, we will cause the *next*
H_CEDE to return immediately.
Instead use a dedicated "irq_pending" flag to indicate that
a guest interrupt is pending for the VCPU. We don't reuse the
existing exception bitmap so as to avoid expensive atomic ops.

On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the
L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to
guest.
This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At
this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs
such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale
CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other
mechanisms on those CPUs.
The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally
inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is
speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the
address of a subsequent speculatively executed load.
In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1,
because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is
performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the
vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by
flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for
hypervisor vs guest.
In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at
each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and
patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise
to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D.
If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement
flush in software.
For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and
different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are
prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction
activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at
boot if the hypervisor tells us to.
In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and
Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis
of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc.
Many thanks to all of them.

CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 indicates support for the "standard" powerpc MMU
on 64-bit CPUs. The "standard" MMU refers to the hash page table MMU
found in "server" processors, from IBM mainly.
Currently CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is == CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. While it's
annoying to have two symbols that always have the same value, it's not
quite annoying enough to bother removing one.
However with the arrival of Power9, we now have the situation where
CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64 is enabled, but the kernel is running using the
Radix MMU - *not* the "standard" MMU. So it is now actively confusing
to use it, because it implies that code is disabled or inactive when
the Radix MMU is in use, however that is not necessarily true.
So s/CONFIG_PPC_STD_MMU_64/CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64/, and do some minor
formatting updates of some of the affected lines.
This will be a pain for backports, but c'est la vie.

This patch removes the restriction that a radix host can only run
radix guests, allowing us to run HPT (hashed page table) guests as
well. This is useful because it provides a way to run old guest
kernels that know about POWER8 but not POWER9.
Unfortunately, POWER9 currently has a restriction that all threads
in a given code must either all be in HPT mode, or all in radix mode.
This means that when entering a HPT guest, we have to obtain control
of all 4 threads in the core and get them to switch their LPIDR and
LPCR registers, even if they are not going to run a guest. On guest
exit we also have to get all threads to switch LPIDR and LPCR back
to host values.
To make this feasible, we require that KVM not be in the "independent
threads" mode, and that the CPU cores be in single-threaded mode from
the host kernel's perspective (only thread 0 online; threads 1, 2 and
3 offline). That allows us to use the same code as on POWER8 for
obtaining control of the secondary threads.
To manage the LPCR/LPIDR changes required, we extend the kvm_split_info
struct to contain the information needed by the secondary threads.
All threads perform a barrier synchronization (where all threads wait
for every other thread to reach the synchronization point) on guest
entry, both before and after loading LPCR and LPIDR. On guest exit,
they all once again perform a barrier synchronization both before
and after loading host values into LPCR and LPIDR.
Finally, it is also currently necessary to flush the entire TLB every
time we enter a HPT guest on a radix host. We do this on thread 0
with a loop of tlbiel instructions.
