10d91611f4 powerpc/64s: Reimplement book3s idle code in 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.

a68c31fc01 powerpc/32s: Implement Kernel Userspace Access Protection
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.

a7916a1de5 powerpc: regain entire stack space
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*

When activating CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, linux/sched.h includes

5434ae7462 powerpc/64s/hash: Add a SLB preload cache
When switching processes, currently all user SLBEs are cleared, and a
few (exec_base, pc, and stack) are preloaded. In trivial testing with
small apps, this tends to miss the heap and low 256MB segments, and it
will also miss commonly accessed segments on large memory workloads.

Add a simple round-robin preload cache that just inserts the last SLB
miss into the head of the cache and preloads those at context switch
time. Every 256 context switches, the oldest entry is removed from the
cache to shrink the cache and require fewer slbmte if they are unused.

Much more could go into this, including into the SLB entry reclaim
side to track some LRU information etc, which would require a study of
large memory workloads. But this is a simple thing we can do now that
is an obvious win for common workloads.

With the full series, process switching speed on the context_switch
benchmark on POWER9/hash (with kernel speculation security masures
disabled) increases from 140K/s to 178K/s (27%).

POWER8 does not change much (within 1%), it's unclear why it does not
see a big gain like POWER9.

Booting to busybox init with 256MB segments has SLB misses go down
from 945 to 69, and with 1T segments 900 to 21. These could almost all
be eliminated by preloading a bit more carefully with ELF binary
loading.

4c2de74cc8 powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather than thread_struct
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.

ba0635fcbe powerpc: Rename thread_struct.fs to addr_limit
It's called 'fs' for historical reasons, it's named after the x86 'FS'

thread_struct, and in fact arch/x86 doesn't even call it 'fs' anymore.

But since CP_ABORT is expensive, we want to restrict it to only

Define an interface, set_thread_uses_vas(), that VAS can use to
indicate that the current process opened a send window. During context

92d9dfda8b powerpc/mm/4k: Limit 4k page size config to 64TB virtual address space
Supporting 512TB requires us to do a order 3 allocation for level 1 page
table (pgd). This results in page allocation failures with certain workloads.
For now limit 4k linux page size config to 64TB.

61baf15555 powerpc/64e: Don't place the stack beyond TASK_SIZE
Commit f4ea6dcb08 ("powerpc/mm: Enable mappings above 128TB") increased
the task size on book3s, and introduced a mechanism to dynamically
control whether a task uses these larger addresses.  While the change to
the task size itself was ifdef-protected to only apply on book3s, the
change to STACK_TOP_USER64 was not.  On book3e, this had the effect of
trying to use addresses up to 128TiB for the stack despite a 64TiB task
size limit -- which broke 64-bit userspace producing the following errors:

Starting init: /sbin/init exists but couldn't execute it (error -14)
Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error -14)
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel. See Linux Documentation/admin-guide/init.rst for guidance.

f4ea6dcb08 powerpc/mm: Enable mappings above 128TB
Not all user space application is ready to handle wide addresses. It's
known that at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to
encode their information. It collides with valid pointers with 512TB
addresses and leads to crashes.

To mitigate this, we are not going to allocate virtual address space
above 128TB by default.

But userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by
specifying hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 128TB.

If hint address set above 128TB, but MAP_FIXED is not specified, we try
to look for unmapped area by specified address. If it's already
occupied, we look for unmapped area in *full* address space, rather than
from 128TB window.

This approach helps to easily make application's memory allocator aware
about large address space without manually tracking allocated virtual
address space.

This is going to be a per mmap decision. ie, we can have some mmaps with
larger addresses and other that do not.

A sample memory layout looks like:

We update the hash linux page table layout such that we can support

default without conditional because that is the max virtual address
supported by other architectures. We will later add a mechanism to
on-demand increase the application's effective address range to 512TB.

Having the page table layout changed to accommodate 512TB makes testing

09206b600c powernv: Pass PSSCR value and mask to power9_idle_stop
The power9_idle_stop method currently takes only the requested stop
level as a parameter and picks up the rest of the PSSCR bits from a
hand-coded macro. This is not a very flexible design, especially when
the firmware has the capability to communicate the psscr value and the
mask associated with a particular stop state via device tree.

This patch modifies the power9_idle_stop API to take as parameters the
PSSCR value and the PSSCR mask corresponding to the stop state that
needs to be set. These PSSCR value and mask are respectively obtained
by parsing the "ibm,cpu-idle-state-psscr" and
"ibm,cpu-idle-state-psscr-mask" fields from the device tree.

In addition to this, the patch adds support for handling stop states
for which ESL and EC bits in the PSSCR are zero. As per the
architecture, a wakeup from these stop states resumes execution from
the subsequent instruction as opposed to waking up at the System
Vector.

The older firmware sets only the Requested Level (RL) field in the
psscr and psscr-mask exposed in the device tree. For older firmware
where psscr-mask=0xf, this patch will set the default sane values that
the set for for remaining PSSCR fields (i.e PSLL, MTL, ESL, EC, and
TR). For the new firmware, the patch will validate that the invariants
required by the ISA for the psscr values are maintained by the
firmware.

This skiboot patch that exports fully populated PSSCR values and the
mask for all the stop states can be found here:
https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/skiboot/2016-September/004869.html

[Optimize the number of instructions before entering STOP with
ESL=EC=0, validate the PSSCR values provided by the firimware

Singh]

79ab11cdb9 locking/core: Introduce cpu_relax_yield()
For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

5d176f751e powerpc: tm: Enable transactional memory (TM) lazily for userspace
Currently the MSR TM bit is always set if the hardware is TM capable.
This adds extra overhead as it means the TM SPRS (TFHAR, TEXASR and
TFAIR) must be swapped for each process regardless of if they use TM.

For processes that don't use TM the TM MSR bit can be turned off
allowing the kernel to avoid the expensive swap of the TM registers.

A TM unavailable exception will occur if a thread does use TM and the
kernel will enable MSR_TM and leave it so for some time afterwards.

dc3106690b powerpc: tm: Always use fp_state and vr_state to store live registers
There is currently an inconsistency as to how the entire CPU register
state is saved and restored when a thread uses transactional memory
(TM).

Using transactional memory results in the CPU having duplicated
(almost) all of its register state. This duplication results in a set
of registers which can be considered 'live', those being currently
modified by the instructions being executed and another set that is
frozen at a point in time.

On context switch, both sets of state have to be saved and (later)
restored. These two states are often called a variety of different
things. Common terms for the state which only exists after the CPU has
entered a transaction (performed a TBEGIN instruction) in hardware are
'transactional' or 'speculative'.

Between a TBEGIN and a TEND or TABORT (or an event that causes the
hardware to abort), regardless of the use of TSUSPEND the
transactional state can be referred to as the live state.

The second state is often to referred to as the 'checkpointed' state
and is a duplication of the live state when the TBEGIN instruction is
executed. This state is kept in the hardware and will be rolled back
to on transaction failure.

Currently all the registers stored in pt_regs are ALWAYS the live
registers, that is, when a thread has transactional registers their
values are stored in pt_regs and the checkpointed state is in
ckpt_regs. A strange opposite is true for fp_state/vr_state. When a
thread is non transactional fp_state/vr_state holds the live
registers. When a thread has initiated a transaction fp_state/vr_state
holds the checkpointed state and transact_fp/transact_vr become the
structure which holds the live state (at this point it is a
transactional state).

This method creates confusion as to where the live state is, in some
circumstances it requires extra work to determine where to put the
live state and prevents the use of common functions designed (probably
before TM) to save the live state.

With this patch pt_regs, fp_state and vr_state all represent the
same thing and the other structures [pending rename] are for
checkpointed state.

bcef83a00d powerpc/powernv: Add platform support for stop instruction
POWER ISA v3 defines a new idle processor core mechanism. In summary,
 a) new instruction named stop is added. This instruction replaces
	instructions like nap, sleep, rvwinkle.
 b) new per thread SPR named Processor Stop Status and Control Register
	(PSSCR) is added which controls the behavior of stop instruction.

PSSCR layout:
----------------------------------------------------------
| PLS | /// | SD | ESL | EC | PSLL | /// | TR | MTL | RL |
----------------------------------------------------------
0      4     41   42    43   44     48    54   56    60

PSSCR key fields:
	Bits 0:3  - Power-Saving Level Status. This field indicates the lowest
	power-saving state the thread entered since stop instruction was last
	executed.

	Bit 42 - Enable State Loss
	0 - No state is lost irrespective of other fields
	1 - Allows state loss

	Bits 44:47 - Power-Saving Level Limit
	This limits the power-saving level that can be entered into.

	Bits 60:63 - Requested Level
	Used to specify which power-saving level must be entered on executing
	stop instruction

This patch adds support for stop instruction and PSSCR handling.

bd3ea317fd powerpc: Load Monitor Register Support
This enables new registers, LMRR and LMSER, that can trigger an EBB in
userspace code when a monitored load (via the new ldmx instruction)
loads memory from a monitored space. This facility is controlled by a
new FSCR bit, LM.

This patch disables the FSCR LM control bit on task init and enables
that bit when a load monitor facility unavailable exception is taken
for using it. On context switch, this bit is then used to determine
whether the two relevant registers are saved and restored. This is
done lazily for performance reasons.

b57bd2de8c powerpc: Improve FSCR init and context switching
This fixes a few issues with FSCR init and switching.

In commit 152d523e63 ("powerpc: Create context switch helpers
save_sprs() and restore_sprs()") we moved the setting of the FSCR
register from inside an CPU_FTR_ARCH_207S section to inside just a
CPU_FTR_ARCH_DSCR section. Hence we are setting FSCR on POWER6/7 where
the FSCR doesn't exist. This is harmless but we shouldn't do it.

Also, we can simplify the FSCR context switch. We don't need to go
through the calculation involving dscr_inherit. We can just restore
what we saved last time.

We also set an initial value in INIT_THREAD, so that pid 1 which is
cloned from that gets a sane value.

Based on patch by Jack Miller.

registers. But the comment says otherwise, correct the comment.

70fe3d980f powerpc: Restore FPU/VEC/VSX if previously used
Currently the FPU, VEC and VSX facilities are lazily loaded. This is not
a problem unless a process is using these facilities.

Modern versions of GCC are very good at automatically vectorising code,
new and modernised workloads make use of floating point and vector
facilities, even the kernel makes use of vectorised memcpy.

All this combined greatly increases the cost of a syscall since the
kernel uses the facilities sometimes even in syscall fast-path making it
increasingly common for a thread to take an *_unavailable exception soon
after a syscall, not to mention potentially taking all three.

The obvious overcompensation to this problem is to simply always load
all the facilities on every exit to userspace. Loading up all FPU, VEC
and VSX registers every time can be expensive and if a workload does
avoid using them, it should not be forced to incur this penalty.

An 8bit counter is used to detect if the registers have been used in the
past and the registers are always loaded until the value wraps to back
to zero.

Several versions of the assembly in entry_64.S were tested:

  1. Always calling C.
  2. Performing a common case check and then calling C.
  3. A complex check in asm.

After some benchmarking it was determined that avoiding C in the common
case is a performance benefit (option 2). The full check in asm (option
3) greatly complicated that codepath for a negligible performance gain
and the trade-off was deemed not worth it.
