powerpc: module_[32|64].c: replace swap function with built-in one
Replace relaswap with built-in one, because relaswap

Since Spectre mitigations have made indirect function calls more

without them, an "optimized" custom swap function is now

Merge the lockless page table walk rework into next
This merges the lockless page table walk rework series from Aneesh.
Because it touches powerpc KVM code we are sharing it with the kvm-ppc
tree in our topic/ppc-kvm branch.
This is the cover letter from Aneesh:
Avoid IPI while updating page table entries.
Problem Summary:
Slow termination of KVM guest with large guest RAM config due to a
large number of IPIs that were caused by clearing level 1 PTE
entries (THP) entries. This is shown in the stack trace below.
- qemu-system-ppc [kernel.vmlinux] [k] smp_call_function_many
- smp_call_function_many
- 36.09% smp_call_function_many

Why we need to do IPI when clearing PMD entries:
This was added as part of commit:
13bd817bb884 ("powerpc/thp: Serialize pmd clear against a linux page table walk")
serialize_against_pte_lookup makes sure that all parallel lockless
page table walk completes before we convert a PMD pte entry to regular
pmd entry. We end up doing that conversion in the below scenarios
1) __split_huge_zero_page_pmd
2) do_huge_pmd_wp_page_fallback
3) MADV_DONTNEED running parallel to page faults.
local_irq_disable and lockless page table walk:
The lockless page table walk work with the assumption that we can
dereference the page table contents without holding a lock. For this
to work, we need to make sure we read the page table contents
atomically and page table pages are not going to be freed/released
while we are walking the table pages. We can achieve by using a rcu
based freeing for page table pages or if the architecture implements
broadcast tlbie, we can block the IPI as we walk the page table pages.
To support both the above framework, lockless page table walk is done
with irq disabled instead of rcu_read_lock()
We do have two interface for lockless page table walk, gup fast and
__find_linux_pte. This patch series makes __find_linux_pte table walk
safe against the conversion of PMD PTE to regular PMD.
gup fast:
gup fast is already safe against THP split because kernel now
differentiate between a pmd split and a compound page split. gup fast
can run parallel to a pmd split and we prevent a parallel gup fast to
a hugepage split, by freezing the page refcount and failing the
speculative page ref increment.
Similar to how gup is safe against parallel pmd split, this patch
series updates the __find_linux_pte callers to be safe against a
parallel pmd split. We do that by enforcing the following rules.
1) Don't reload the pte value, because that can be updated in
parallel.
2) Code should be able to work with a stale PTE value and not the
recent one. ie, the pte value that we are looking at may not be the
latest value in the page table.
3) Before looking at pte value check for _PAGE_PTE bit. We now do this
as part of pte_present() check.

powerpc/mm/book3s64: Fix MADV_DONTNEED and parallel page fault race
MADV_DONTNEED holds mmap_sem in read mode and that implies a
parallel page fault is possible and the kernel can end up with a level 1 PTE
entry (THP entry) converted to a level 0 PTE entry without flushing
the THP TLB entry.
Most architectures including POWER have issues with kernel instantiating a level
0 PTE entry while holding level 1 TLB entries.
The code sequence I am looking at is
down_read(mmap_sem) down_read(mmap_sem)
zap_pmd_range()
zap_huge_pmd()
pmd lock held
pmd_cleared
table details added to mmu_gather
pmd_unlock()
insert a level 0 PTE entry()
tlb_finish_mmu().
Fix this by forcing a tlb flush before releasing pmd lock if this is
not a fullmm invalidate. We can safely skip this invalidate for
task exit case (fullmm invalidate) because in that case we are sure
there can be no parallel fault handlers.

We also drop the equivalent IPI from other pte updates routines. We still keep

read_user_stack_slow is called with interrupts soft disabled and it copies contents
from the page which we find mapped to a specific address. To convert
userspace address to pfn, the kernel now uses lockless page table walk.
The kernel needs to make sure the pfn value read remains stable and is not released
and reused for another process while the contents are read from the page. This
can only be achieved by holding a page reference.
One of the first approaches I tried was to check the pte value after the kernel
copies the contents from the page. But as shown below we can still get it wrong

pte = READ_ONCE(*ptep);
pte_clear(pte);

powerpc/fadump: consider reserved ranges while reserving memory
Commit
0962e8004e97 ("powerpc/prom: Scan reserved-ranges node for

node and reserve kernel memory falling in these ranges for F/W
purposes. Memory reserved for FADump should not overlap with these
ranges as it could corrupt memory meant for F/W or crash'ed kernel
memory to be exported as vmcore.
But since commit
579ca1a27675 ("powerpc/fadump: make use of memblock's

find the appropriate area to reserve memory for FADump, which can't
account for reserved-ranges as these ranges are reserved only after
FADump memory reservation.
With reserved-ranges now being populated during early boot, look out
for these memory ranges while reserving memory for FADump. Without
this change, MPIPL on PowerNV systems aborts with hostboot failure,
when memory reserved for FADump is less than 4096MB.

the value of idle PURR cycle thus read before pseries_idle_prolog() and

However, if we were to read the idle PURR cycles from an interrupt

Merge NX gzip support into next
As described by Haren:
Power9 processor supports Virtual Accelerator Switchboard (VAS) which
allows kernel and userspace to send compression requests to Nest
Accelerator (NX) directly. The NX unit comprises of 2 842 compression
engines and 1 GZIP engine. Linux kernel already has 842 compression
support on kernel. This patch series adds GZIP compression support
from user space. The GZIP Compression engine implements the ZLIB and
GZIP compression algorithms. No plans of adding NX-GZIP compression
support in kernel right now.
Applications can send requests to NX directly with COPY/PASTE
instructions. But kernel has to establish channel / window on NX-GZIP
device for the userspace. So userspace access to the GZIP engine is
provided through /dev/crypto/nx-gzip device with several operations.
An application must open the this device to obtain a file
descriptor (fd). Using the fd, application should issue the
VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl to establish a connection to the engine. Once
window is opened, should use mmap() system call to map the hardware
address of engine's request queue into the application's virtual
address space. Then user space forms the request as co-processor
Request Block (CRB) and paste this CRB on the mapped HW address using
COPY/PASTE instructions. Application can poll on status flags (part of
CRB) with timeout for request completion.
For VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl, if user space passes vas_id = -1 (struct
vas_tx_win_open_attr), kernel determines the VAS instance on the
corresponding chip based on the CPU on which the process is executing.
Otherwise, the specified VAS instance is used if application passes
the proper VAS instance (vas_id listed in
/proc/device-tree/vas@*/ibm,vas_id).
Process can open multiple windows with different FDs or can send
several requests to NX on the same window at the same time.

Merge VAS page fault handling into next
As described by Haren:
On Power9, Virtual Accelerator Switchboard (VAS) allows user space or
kernel to communicate with Nest Accelerator (NX) directly using
COPY/PASTE instructions. NX provides various functionalities such as
compression, encryption and etc. But only compression (842 and GZIP
formats) is supported in Linux kernel on power9.
842 compression driver (drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842-powernv.c) is already
included in Linux. Only GZIP support will be available from user
space.
Applications can issue GZIP compression / decompression requests to NX
with COPY/PASTE instructions. When NX is processing these requests,
can hit fault on the request buffer (not in memory). It issues an
interrupt and pastes fault CRB in fault FIFO. Expects kernel to handle
this fault and return credits for both send and fault windows after
processing.
This patch series adds IRQ and fault window setup, and NX fault
handling:
- Alloc IRQ and trigger port address, and configure IRQ per VAS
instance.
- Set port# for each window to generate an interrupt when noticed
fault.
- Set fault window and FIFO on which NX paste fault CRB.
- Setup IRQ thread fault handler per VAS instance.
- When receiving an interrupt, Read CRBs from fault FIFO and update
coprocessor_status_block (CSB) in the corresponding CRB with
translation failure (CSB_CC_TRANSLATION). After issuing NX
requests, process polls on CSB address. When it sees translation
error, can touch the request buffer to bring the page in to memory
and reissue NX request.
- If copy_to_user fails on user space CSB address, OS sends SEGV
signal.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Handle non-present PTEs in page fault functions
Since
cd758a9b57ee "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use __gfn_to_pfn_memslot in HPT
page fault handler", it's been possible in fairly rare circumstances to
load a non-present PTE in kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault() when running a
guest on a POWER8 host.
Because that case wasn't checked for, we could misinterpret the non-present
PTE as being a cache-inhibited PTE. That could mismatch with the
corresponding hash PTE, which would cause the function to fail with -EFAULT
a little further down. That would propagate up to the KVM_RUN ioctl()
generally causing the KVM userspace (usually qemu) to fall over.
This addresses the problem by catching that case and returning to the guest
instead.
For completeness, this fixes the radix page fault handler in the same
way. For radix this didn't cause any obvious misbehaviour, because we
ended up putting the non-present PTE into the guest's partition-scoped
page tables, leading immediately to another hypervisor data/instruction
storage interrupt, which would go through the page fault path again
and fix things up.

powerpc/vas: Add VAS user space API
On power9, userspace can send GZIP compression requests directly to NX
once kernel establishes NX channel / window with VAS. This patch provides
user space API which allows user space to establish channel using open
VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl, mmap and close operations.
Each window corresponds to file descriptor and application can open
multiple windows. After the window is opened, VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN icoctl to
open a window on specific VAS instance, mmap() system call to map
the hardware address of engine's request queue into the application's
virtual address space.
Then the application can then submit one or more requests to the the
engine by using the copy/paste instructions and pasting the CRBs to
the virtual address (aka paste_address) returned by mmap().
Only NX GZIP coprocessor type is supported right now and allow GZIP
engine access via /dev/crypto/nx-gzip device node.
Thanks to Michael Ellerman for his changes and suggestions to make the
ioctl generic to support any coprocessor type.

powerpc: Use mm_context vas_windows counter to issue CP_ABORT
set_thread_uses_vas() sets used_vas flag for a process that opened VAS
window and issue CP_ABORT during context switch for only that process.
In multi-thread application, windows can be shared. For example Thread
A can open a window and Thread B can run COPY/PASTE instructions to
send NX request which may cause corruption or snooping or a covert
channel Also once this flag is set, continue to run CP_ABORT even the
VAS window is closed.
So define vas-windows counter in process mm_context, increment this
counter for each window open and decrement it for window close. If
vas-windows is set, issue CP_ABORT during context switch. It means
clear the foreign real address mapping only if the process / thread
uses COPY/PASTE. Then disable it for that process if windows are not
open.
Moved set_thread_uses_vas() code to vas_tx_win_open() as this
functionality is needed only for userspace open windows. We are adding
VAS userspace support along with this fix. So no need to include this

The kernel handles NX faults by updating CSB or send SEGV signal to pid

but it will not be closed when this thread exits. It is expected that
the parent will clean up all resources including NX windows opened by
child threads. A child thread can send NX requests using this window
and could be killed before completion is reported. If the pid assigned
to this thread is reused while requests are pending, a failure SEGV
would be directed to the wrong place.
To prevent reusing the pid, take references to pid and mm when the window
is opened and release them when when the window is closed. Then if child
thread is not running, SEGV signal will be sent to thread group leader

mm: Fix MREMAP_DONTUNMAP accounting on VMA merge
When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped
into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become
split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually
be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet
been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end
of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to
become split again.
However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which
means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually
split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where
we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up
putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely
unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in
incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted,
and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment.
There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently
accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong.
We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's
all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that
location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of
the munmap at the start of the mremap.
A really simple repro can be seen in:

Pull flexible-array member conversion from Gustavo Silva:
"The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member[1][2], introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof
operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original
implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible
array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of
code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously
applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances
may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member
convertions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of
issues.
Notice that all of these patches have been baking in linux-next for
quite a while now and, 238 more of these patches have already been
merged into 5.7-rc1.
There are a couple hundred more of these issues waiting to be
addressed in the whole codebase"

introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

genalloc.h: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
