675d8ee685 powerpc/pseries: Update affinity for memory and cpus specified in a PRRN event
Extend the existing PRRN infrastructure to perform the actual affinity
updating for cpus and memory in addition to the device tree updating.
For cpus, dynamic affinity updating already appears to exist in the
kernel in the form of arch_update_cpu_topology(). For memory, we must
place a READD operation on the hotplug queue for any phandle included in
the PRRN event that is determined to be an LMB.

925e2d1ded powerpc: Update of_remove_property() call sites to remove null checking
After obtaining a property from of_find_property() and before calling
of_remove_property() most code checks to ensure that the property
returned from of_find_property() is not null. The previous patch moved
this check to the start of the function of_remove_property() in order to
avoid the case where this check isn't done and a null value is passed.
This ensures the check is always conducted before taking locks and
attempting to remove the property. Thus it is no longer necessary to
perform a check for null values before invoking of_remove_property().

Update of_remove_property() call sites in order to remove redundant
checking for null property value as check is now performed within the
of_remove_property function().

c03e73740d powerpc/pseries: Simplify check for suspendability during suspend/migration
During suspend/migration operation we must wait for the VASI state reported
by the hypervisor to become Suspending prior to making the ibm,suspend-me
RTAS call. Calling routines to rtas_ibm_supend_me() pass a vasi_state variable
that exposes the VASI state to the caller. This is unnecessary as the caller
only really cares about the following three conditions; if there is an error
we should bailout, success indicating we have suspended and woken back up so
proceed to device tree update, or we are not suspendable yet so try calling
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again shortly.

This patch removes the extraneous vasi_state variable and simply uses the
return code to communicate how to proceed. We either succeed, fail, or get
-EAGAIN in which case we sleep for a second before trying to call
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again. The behaviour of ppc_rtas() remains the same,
but migrate_store() now returns the propogated error code on failure.
Previously -1 was returned from migrate_store() in the  failure case which
equates to -EPERM and was clearly wrong.

288a298c05 powerpc/pseries: Introduce api_version to migration sysfs interface
The /sys/kernel/mobility/migration interface was added all the way back
in 2.6.37. However, the drmgr userspace tool was never augmented to use
this interface to perfrom migrations. Instead it has continued using a
faux rtas call coupled with performing the device tree update processing
in userspace and communicating it back to the kernel via the ugly
/proc/ppc64/ofdt interface.

Up until 3.12 the device tree update code in the kernel was badly broken
and bit rotting. This code was fixed in 3.12 and is now utilized by the
kernel suspend code as of 3.15. The kernel is now better suited to
handle the post-mobility fixup of the device tree and drmgr should be
transitioned to using the sysfs migration interface.

This patch introduces the api_version sysfs file to /sys/kernel/mobility
as a means for drmgr to query the current implementation level of the
kernel migration code. This initial versioning indicates it is capable
of perfroming all current PAPR requirements for migration including the
post-mobility firmware activation and device tree update.

f6ff041496 powerpc/pseries: Little endian fixes for post mobility device tree update
We currently use the device tree update code in the kernel after resuming
from a suspend operation to re-sync the kernels view of the device tree with
that of the hypervisor. The code as it stands is not endian safe as it relies
on parsing buffers returned by RTAS calls that thusly contains data in big
endian format.

This patch annotates variables and structure members with __be types as well
as performing necessary byte swaps to cpu endian for data that needs to be
parsed.

3df76a9dcc powerpc/pseries: Fix endian problems with LE migration
RTAS events require arguments be passed in big endian while hypercalls
have their arguments passed in registers and the values should therefore
be in CPU endian.

The "ibm,suspend_me" 'RTAS' call makes a sequence of hypercalls to setup
one true RTAS call. This means that "ibm,suspend_me" is handled
specially in the ppc_rtas() syscall.

The ppc_rtas() syscall has its arguments in big endian and can therefore
pass these arguments directly to the RTAS call. "ibm,suspend_me" is
handled specially from within ppc_rtas() (by calling rtas_ibm_suspend_me())
which has left an endian bug on little endian systems due to the
requirement of hypercalls. The return value from rtas_ibm_suspend_me()
gets returned in cpu endian, and is left unconverted, also a bug on
little endian systems.

rtas_ibm_suspend_me() does not actually make use of the rtas_args that
it is passed. This patch removes the convoluted use of the rtas_args
struct to pass params to rtas_ibm_suspend_me() in favour of passing what
it needs as actual arguments. This patch also ensures the two callers of
rtas_ibm_suspend_me() pass function parameters in cpu endian and in the
case of ppc_rtas(), converts the return value.

migrate_store() (the other caller of rtas_ibm_suspend_me()) is from a
sysfs file which deals with everything in cpu endian so this function
only underwent cleanup.

This patch has been tested with KVM both LE and BE and on PowerVM both
LE and BE. Under QEMU/KVM the migration happens without touching these
code pathes.

For PowerVM there is no obvious regression on BE and the LE code path
now provides the correct parameters to the hypervisor.

8e83e9053f powerpc/pseries: Switch pseries drivers to use machine_xxx_initcall()
A lot of the code in platforms/pseries is using non-machine initcalls.
That means if a kernel built with pseries support runs on another
platform, for example powernv, the initcalls will still run.

Most of these cases are OK, though sometimes only due to luck. Some were
having more effect:

 * hcall_inst_init
  - Checking FW_FEATURE_LPAR which is set on ps3 & celleb.
 * mobility_sysfs_init
  - created sysfs files unconditionally
  - but no effect due to ENOSYS from rtas_ibm_suspend_me()
 * apo_pm_init
  - created sysfs, allows write
  - nothing checks the value written to though
 * alloc_dispatch_log_kmem_cache
  - creating kmem_cache on non-pseries machines

39a33b59f4 powerpc/pseries: Device tree should only be updated once after suspend/migrate
The current code makes rtas calls for update-nodes, activate-firmware and then
update-nodes again. The FW provides the same data for both update-nodes calls.
As a result a proc entry exists error is reported for the second update while
adding device nodes.

This patch makes a single rtas call for update-nodes after activating the FW.
It also add rtas_busy delay for the activate-firmware rtas call.

c8f5a57c62 powerpc/pseries: Fix parsing of initial node path in update_dt_node
On the first call to ibm,update-properties for a node the first property
returned is the full node path. Currently this is not parsed correctly by the
update_dt_node function. Commit 2e9b7b0 attempted to fix this, but was
incorrect as it made a wrong assumption about the layout of the first
property in the work area. Further, if ibm,update-properties must be called
multiple times for the same node this special property should only be skipped
after the initial call. The first property descriptor returned consists of
the property name, property value length, and property value. The property
name is an empty string, property length is encoded in 4 byte integer, and
the property value is the node path.

The work area buffer returned by the ibm,update-properties rtas call contains
20 bytes of header information prior to the property value descriptor data.
Currently update_dt_node tries to advance over this header using sizeof(upwa).
The update_props_workarea struct contains 20 bytes worth of fields, that map
to the relevant header data, but the sizeof the structure is 24 bytes due to
4 bytes of padding at the end of the structure. Packing the structure ensures
that we don't advance too far over the rtas buffer.

762ec15707 powerpc/pseries: Expose pseries devicetree_update()
Newer firmware on Power systems can transparently reassign platform resources
(CPU and Memory) in use. For instance, if a processor or memory unit is
predicted to fail, the platform may transparently move the processing to an
equivalent unused processor or the memory state to an equivalent unused
memory unit. However, reassigning resources across NUMA boundaries may alter
the performance of the partition. When such reassignment is necessary, the
Platform Resource Reassignment Notification (PRRN) option provides a
mechanism to inform the Linux kernel of changes to the NUMA affinity of
its platform resources.

When rtasd receives a PRRN event, it needs to make a series of RTAS
calls (ibm,update-nodes and ibm,update-properties) to retrieve the
updated device tree information. These calls are already handled in the
pseries_devicetree_update() routine used in partition migration.

This patch exposes pseries_devicetree_update() to make it accessible
to other pseries routines, this patch also updates pseries_devicetree_update()
to take a 32-bit scope parameter. The scope value, which was previously hard
coded to 1 for partition migration, is used for the RTAS calls
ibm,update-nodes/properties to update the device tree.

Enable partition migration in the kernel.  To do this a new sysfs file,
/sys/kernel/mobility/migration, is created.  In order to initiate a migration
the stream id (generated by the HMC managing the system) is written to this
file.

After a migration occurs, and what is the majority of this code, the device
tree needs to be updated for the new system the partition is running on. This
is done via the ibm,update-nodes and ibm,update-properties rtas calls which
return information regarding which nodes and properties of the device tree
are to be added/removed/updated.
