This patch implements a fast entry for syscalls.
Syscalls don't have to preserve non volatile registers except LR.
This patch then implement a fast entry for syscalls, where
volatile registers get clobbered.
As this entry is dedicated to syscall it always sets MSR_EE
and warns in case MSR_EE was previously off
It also assumes that the call is always from user, system calls are
unexpected from kernel.
The overall series improves null_syscall selftest by 12,5% on an 83xx
and by 17% on a 8xx.

All exceptions handlers know when to reenable interrupts, so
it is safer to enter all of them with MSR_EE unset, except

EXCEPTION_PROLOG is similar in head_8xx.S and head_32.S
This patch creates head_32.h and moves EXCEPTION_PROLOG macro
into it. It also converts it from a GCC macro to a GAS macro
in order to ease refactorisation with 40x later, since
GAS macros allows the use of #ifdef/#else/#endif inside it.
And it also has the advantage of not requiring the uggly "; \"
at the end of each line.
This patch also moves EXCEPTION() and EXC_XFER_XXXX() macros which
are also similar while adding START_EXCEPTION() out of EXCEPTION().

This patch adds KASAN support for PPC32. The following patch
will add an early activation of hash table for book3s. Until
then, a warning will be raised if trying to use KASAN on an
hash 6xx.
To support KASAN, this patch initialises that MMU mapings for
accessing to the KASAN shadow area defined in a previous patch.
An early mapping is set as soon as the kernel code has been
relocated at its definitive place.
Then the definitive mapping is set once paging is initialised.
For modules, the shadow area is allocated at module_alloc().

On 8xx, large pages (512kb or 8M) are used to map kernel linear

Today, on the 8xx the TLB handlers do SW tablewalk by doing all
the calculation in ASM, in order to match with the Linux page
table structure.
The 8xx offers hardware assistance which allows significant size
reduction of the TLB handlers, hence also reduces the time spent
in the handlers.
However, using this HW assistance implies some constraints on the
page table structure:
- Regardless of the main page size used (4k or 16k), the
level 1 table (PGD) contains 1024 entries and each PGD entry covers
a 4Mbytes area which is managed by a level 2 table (PTE) containing
also 1024 entries each describing a 4k page.
- 16k pages require 4 identifical entries in the L2 table
- 512k pages PTE have to be spread every 128 bytes in the L2 table
- 8M pages PTE are at the address pointed by the L1 entry and each
8M page require 2 identical entries in the PGD.
This patch modifies the TLB handlers to use HW assistance for 4K PAGES.
Before that patch, the mean time spent in TLB miss handlers is:
- ITLB miss: 80 ticks
- DTLB miss: 62 ticks
After that patch, the mean time spent in TLB miss handlers is:
- ITLB miss: 72 ticks
- DTLB miss: 54 ticks
So the improvement is 10% for ITLB and 13% for DTLB misses

In preparation of making use of hardware assistance in TLB handlers,
this patch temporarily disables 16K pages and hugepages. The reason
is that when using HW assistance in 4K pages mode, the linux model
fit with the HW model for 4K pages and 8M pages.
However for 16K pages and 512K mode some additional work is needed
to get linux model fit with HW model.
For the 8M pages, they will naturaly come back when we switch to
HW assistance, without any additional handling.
In order to keep the following patch smaller, the removal of the
current special handling for 8M pages gets removed here as well.
Therefore the 4K pages mode will be implemented first and without
support for 512k hugepages. Then the 512k hugepages will be brought
back. And the 16K pages will be implemented in the following step.

As Linux kernel separates KERNEL and USER address spaces, there is
therefore no need to flag USER access at page level.
Today, the 8xx TLB handlers already handle user access in the L1 entry
through Access Protection Groups, it is then natural to move the user
access handling at PMD level once _PAGE_NA allows to handle PAGE_NONE
protection without _PAGE_USER
In the mean time, as we free up one bit in the PTE, we can use it to
include SPS (page size flag) in the PTE and avoid handling it at every
TLB miss hence removing special handling based on compiled page size.
For _PAGE_EXEC, we rework it to use PP PTE bits, avoiding the copy
of _PAGE_EXEC bit into the L1 entry. Unfortunatly we are not
able to put it at the correct location as it conflicts with
NA/RO/RW bits for data entries.
Upper bits of APG in L1 entry overlap with PMD base address. In
order to avoid having to filter that out, we set up all groups so that
upper bits can have any value.

In TLB miss handlers, updating the perf counter is only useful
when performing a perf analysis. As it has a noticeable overhead,
let's only do it when needed.
In order to do so, the exit of the miss handlers will be patched
when starting/stopping 'perf': the first register restore
instruction of each exit point will be replaced by a jump to
the counting code.
Once this is done, CONFIG_PPC_8xx_PERF_EVENT becomes useless as
this feature doesn't add any overhead.

EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 and EXCEPTION_EPILOG_0 were added some
time ago in order to regroup the two mtspr/mfspr to SCRATCH0 and

Since then, the mfcr/mtcr has been taken out, hence just leaving

In order to improve readability of the exception functions, we
remove those two macros and copy back the two mtspr/mfspr instead.
As r10 and r11 are used for SCRATCH0 and SCRATCH1, lets also use

Since commit aa42c69c67f82 ("[POWERPC] Add support for FP emulation
for the e300c2 core"), program_check_exception() can be called for
math emulation. In that case, 'reason' is 0.
On the 8xx, there is a Software Emulation interrupt which is
called for all unimplemented and illegal instructions. This
interrupt calls SoftwareEmulation() which does almost the
same as program_check_exception() called with reason = 0.
The Software Emulation interrupt sets all reason bits to 0,
it is therefore possible to call program_check_exception()
directly from the interrupt handler.

This patch has been reworked since RFC version. In the RFC, this patch
was preceded by a patch clearing MSR RI for all PPC32 at all time at
exception prologs. Now MSR RI clearing is done only when this 8xx perf
events functionality is compiled in, it is therefore limited to 8xx
and merged inside this patch.
Other main changes have been to take into account detailed review from
Peter Zijlstra. The instructions counter has been reworked to behave
as a free running counter like the three other counters.
The 8xx has no PMU, however some events can be emulated by other means.
This patch implements the following events (as reported by 'perf list'):
cpu-cycles OR cycles [Hardware event]
instructions [Hardware event]
dTLB-load-misses [Hardware cache event]
iTLB-load-misses [Hardware cache event]
'cycles' event is implemented using the timebase clock. Timebase clock
corresponds to CPU clock divided by 16, so number of cycles is
approximatly 16 times the number of TB ticks
On the 8xx, TLB misses are handled by software. It is therefore
easy to count all TLB misses each time the TLB miss exception is
called.
'instructions' is calculated by using instruction watchpoint counter.
This patch sets counter A to count instructions at address greater
than 0, hence we count all instructions executed while MSR RI bit is
set. The counter is set to the maximum which is 0xffff. Every 65535
instructions, debug instruction breakpoint exception fires. The
exception handler increments a counter in memory which then
represent the upper part of the instruction counter. We therefore
end up with a 48 bits counter. In order to avoid unnecessary overhead
while no perf event is active, this counter is started when the first
event referring to this counter is added, and the counter is stopped
when the last event referring to it is deleted. In order to properly
support breakpoint exceptions, MSR RI bit has to be unset in exception
epilogs in order to avoid breakpoint exceptions during critical
sections during changes to SRR0 and SRR1 would be problematic.
All counters are handled as free running counters.

This patch implements HW breakpoint on the 8xx. The 8xx has
capability to manage HW breakpoints, which is slightly different
than BOOK3S:
1/ The breakpoint match doesn't trigger a DSI exception but a
dedicated data breakpoint exception.
2/ The breakpoint happens after the instruction has completed,
no need to single step or emulate the instruction,
3/ Matched address is not set in DAR but in BAR,
4/ DABR register doesn't exist, instead we have registers
LCTRL1, LCTRL2 and CMPx registers,
5/ The match on one comparator is not on a double word but
on a single word.
The patch does:
1/ Prepare the dedicated registers in call to __set_dabr(). In order
to emulate the double word handling of BOOK3S, comparator E is set to
DABR address value and comparator F to address + 4. Then breakpoint 1
is set to match comparator E or F,
2/ Skip the singlestepping stage when compiled for CONFIG_PPC_8xx,
3/ Implement the exception. In that exception, the matched address
is taken from SPRN_BAR and manage as if it was from SPRN_DAR.
4/ I/D TLB error exception routines perform a tlbie on bad TLBs. That
tlbie triggers the breakpoint exception when performed on the
breakpoint address. For this reason, the routine returns if the match
is from one of those two tlbie.

8xx uses a two level page table with two different linux page size
support (4k and 16k). 8xx also support two different hugepage sizes
512k and 8M. In order to support them on linux we define two different
page table layout.
The size of pages is in the PGD entry, using PS field (bits 28-29):
00 : Small pages (4k or 16k)
01 : 512k pages
10 : reserved
11 : 8M pages
For 512K hugepage size a pgd entry have the below format
[<hugepte address >0101] . The hugepte table allocated will contain 8
entries pointing to 512K huge pte in 4k pages mode and 64 entries in
16k pages mode.
For 8M in 16k mode, a pgd entry have the below format
[<hugepte address >1101] . The hugepte table allocated will contain 8
entries pointing to 8M huge pte.
For 8M in 4k mode, multiple pgd entries point to the same hugepte
address and pgd entry will have the below format
[<hugepte address>1101]. The hugepte table allocated will only have one
entry.
For the time being, we do not support CPU15 ERRATA when HUGETLB is
selected

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
- EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.
This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
working on a patch to fix this.
Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
change prototypes.
- Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
Piggin
- fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.
- preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
-ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
- CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell
- fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.
* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (22 commits)
initramfs: Escape colons in depfile
ppc: there is no clear_pages to export
powerpc/64: whitelist unresolved modversions CRCs
kbuild: -ffunction-sections fix for archs with conflicting sections
kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile
kbuild: allow archs to select link dead code/data elimination
kbuild: allow architectures to use thin archives instead of ld -r

User space DTLB miss represent approximatly 90% of TLB misses
so make it the shortest path.
Also remove an unneccessary double jump in FixupDAR
Before this patch, we spend 3.3 TB ticks in the handler for each
user address miss and 3.4 TB ticks for each kernel address miss
After this patch, we send 3.0 TB ticks in the handler for each
user address miss and 3.9 TB ticks for each kernel address miss
Taking into account that user misses represent 90% of the total,
this patch provides an improvement of approx. 9%

When all options are activated, there is not enough space for the
DTLBMiss handlers that handles IMMR area and linear RAM pages in
the exception area once we have added hugepage handling.
So lets move them after .0x2000
