NVLink is a high speed interconnect that is used in conjunction with a
PCI-E connection to create an interface between CPU and GPU that
provides very high data bandwidth. A PCI-E connection to a GPU is used
as the control path to initiate and report status of large data
transfers sent via the NVLink.
On IBM Power systems the NVLink processing unit (NPU) is similar to
the existing PHB3. This patch adds support for a new NPU PHB type. DMA
operations on the NPU are not supported as this patch sets the TCE
translation tables to be the same as the related GPU PCIe device for
each NVLink. Therefore all DMA operations are setup and controlled via
the PCIe device.
EEH is not presently supported for the NPU devices, although it may be
added in future.

User space checkpoint and restart tool (CRIU) needs the page's change
to be soft tracked. This allows to do a pre checkpoint and then dump
only touched pages.
This is done by using a newly assigned PTE bit (_PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY) when
the page is backed in memory, and a new _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit when
the page is swapped out.
To introduce a new PTE _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit value common to hash 4k
and hash 64k pte, the bits already defined in hash-*4k.h should be
shifted left by one.
The _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit is dynamically put after the swap type in
the swap pte. A check is added to ensure that the bit is not
overwritten by _PAGE_HPTEFLAGS.

The STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro takes both a vector number, and a
location (memory address). However both are always identical, so combine
them to save repeating ourselves.
This does mean an exception handler must always exist at the location in
memory that matches its vector number. But that's OK because this is the
"STD" macro (standard), which does exactly that. We have other macros
for the other cases, eg. STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES_OOL (out of line).
Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is a macro which is present at the start of most
of our first level exception handlers. It conditionally executes a
HMT_MEDIUM instruction, which sets the processor priority to medium.
On on modern systems, ie. Power7 and later, it is nop'ed out at boot.
All it does is make the exception vectors more cramped, and consume 4
bytes of icache.
On old systems it has the effect of boosting the processor priority at
the start of exception processing. If we were previously in the idle
loop for example, we may be at low or very low priority. This is
desirable as we want to process the exception as fast as possible.
However looking closely at the generated code, we see that in all cases
we execute another HMT_MEDIUM just four instructions later. With code
patching applied, the final code on an old (Power6) system will look
like, eg:
c000000000000300 <data_access_pSeries>:
c000000000000300: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
c000000000000304: 7d b2 43 a6 mtsprg 2,r13
c000000000000308: 7d b1 42 a6 mfsprg r13,1
c00000000000030c: f9 2d 00 80 std r9,128(r13)
c000000000000310: 60 00 00 00 nop
c000000000000314: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
So I suggest that the added code complexity of HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is
not justified by the benefit of boosting the processor priority for the
duration of four instructions, and therefore we drop it.

Although call_rtas_display_status() does actually want to use the
regular RTAS locking, it doesn't want the extra logic that is in

Instead we can use rtas_call_unlocked(), after taking the RTAS lock.
Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Most users of RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction Services) use rtas_call(),
which deals with locking as well as endian handling.
However we have two users outside of rtas.c that can't use rtas_call()
because they have different locking requirements.
The hotplug CPU code can't take the RTAS lock because the CPU would go
offline with the lock held and no other CPUs would be able to call RTAS
until the CPU came back online.
The xmon code doesn't want to take the lock because it would risk dead
locking when we are trying to recover from a crash.
Both sites required multiple patches when we added little endian
support, proving that programmers can't do endian right.
Although that ship has sailed, we can still clean the code up by
providing an unlocked version of rtas_call() which avoids the need to
open code the logic elsewhere.

HMIs (Hypervisor Management|Maintenance Interrupts) are a class of interrupt
on POWER systems.
HMI support has traditionally been exceptionally difficult to test, however
Skiboot ships a tool that, with the correct magic numbers, will inject them.
This, therefore, is a first pass at a script to inject HMIs and monitor
Linux's response. It injects an HMI on each core on every chip in turn
It then watches dmesg to see if it's acknowledged by Linux.
On a Tuletta, I observed that we see 8 (or sometimes 9 or more) events per
injection, regardless of SMT setting, so we wait for 8 before progressing.
It sits in a new scripts/ directory in selftests/powerpc, because it's not
designed to be run as part of the regular make selftests process. In
particular, it is quite possibly going to end up garding lots of your CPUs,
so it should only be run if you know how to undo that.

GregorianDay() is supposed to calculate the day of the week
(tm->tm_wday) for a given day/month/year. In that calcuation it
indexed into an array called MonthOffset using tm->tm_mon-1. However
tm_mon is zero-based, not one-based, so this is off-by-one. It also
means that every January, GregoiranDay() will access element -1 of
the MonthOffset array.
It also doesn't appear to be a correct algorithm either: see in
contrast kernel/time/timeconv.c's time_to_tm function.
It's been broken forever, which suggests no-one in userland uses
this. It looks like no-one in the kernel uses tm->tm_wday either
(see e.g. drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1305.c:319).
tm->tm_wday is conventionally set to -1 when not available in
hardware so we can simply set it to -1 and drop the function.
(There are over a dozen other drivers in drivers/rtc that do
this.)

When a transaction is aborted, VSR values should rollback to the
checkpointed values before the transaction began. VSRs used elsewhere in

should not affect the checkpointed values.
Prior to the bug fix in commit d31626f70b ("powerpc: Don't corrupt
transactional state when using FP/VMX in kernel") when VMX was requested
by the kernel the .vr_state (which held the checkpointed state of VSRs
before the transaction) was overwritten with the current state from
outside the transation. Thus if the transaction did not complete, the
VSR values would be "rolled back" to potentially incorrect values.

These EPOW reset events are spurious in nature and are triggered by
firmware without an actual EPOW event being reset. This patch avoids these
multiple EPOW reset warnings by using a counter variable. This variable
is incremented every time an EPOW event is reported. Upon receiving a EPOW
reset event the same variable is checked to filter out spurious events and
decremented accordingly.
This patch also improves log messages to better describe EPOW event being
reported. Merged adjacent log messages into single one to reduce number of

Which mean these operations should be fully ordered. However on PPC,
PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER is the barrier before the actual operation,
which is currently "lwsync" if SMP=y. The leading "lwsync" can not
guarantee fully ordered atomics, according to Paul Mckenney:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/14/970
To fix this, we define PPC_ATOMIC_ENTRY_BARRIER as "sync" to guarantee
the fully-ordered semantics.
This also makes futex atomics fully ordered, which can avoid possible
memory ordering problems if userspace code relies on futex system call
for fully ordered semantics.
