In __copy_tofrom_user, if we encounter an exception on a store, we
stop copying and return the number of bytes not copied. However,
if the store is wider than one byte and is to an unaligned address,
it is possible that the store operand overlaps a page boundary
and the exception occurred on the latter part of the store operand,
meaning that it would be possible to copy a few more bytes. Since
copy_to_user is generally expected to copy as much as possible,
it would be better to copy those extra few bytes. This adds code
to do that. Since this edge case is not performance-critical,
the code has been written to be compact rather than as fast as
possible.

The hand-coded assembler 64-bit copy routines include feature sections
that select one code path or another depending on which CPU we are
executing on. The self-tests for these copy routines end up testing
just one path. This adds a mechanism for selecting any desired code
path at compile time, and makes 2 or 3 versions of each test, each
using a different code path, so as to cover all the possible paths.

This aims to make the generation of exception table entries for the
loads and stores in __copy_tofrom_user_base clearer and easier to
verify. Instead of having a series of local labels on the loads and
stores, with a series of corresponding labels later for the exception
handlers, we now use macros to generate exception table entries at the
point of each load and store that could potentially trap. We do this
with the macros lex (load exception) and stex (store exception).
These macros are used right before the load or store to which they
apply.
Some complexity is introduced by the fact that we have some more work
to do after hitting an exception, because we need to calculate and
return the number of bytes not copied. The code uses r3 as the
current pointer into the destination buffer, that is, the address of
the first byte of the destination that has not been modified.
However, at various points in the copy loops, r3 can be 4, 8, 16 or 24
bytes behind that point.
To express this offset in an understandable way, we define a symbol
r3_offset which is updated at various points so that it equal to the
difference between the address of the first unmodified byte of the
destination and the value in r3. (In fact it only needs to be
accurate at the point of each lex or stex macro invocation.)
The rules for updating r3_offset are as follows:
* It starts out at 0
* An addi r3,r3,N instruction decreases r3_offset by N
* A store instruction (stb, sth, stw, std) to N(r3)
increases r3_offset by the width of the store (1, 2, 4, 8)
* A store with update instruction (stbu, sthu, stwu, stdu) to N(r3)
sets r3_offset to the width of the store.
There is some trickiness to the way that the lex and stex macros and
the associated exception handlers work. I would have liked to use
the current value of r3_offset in the name of the symbol used as
the exception handler, as in ".Lld_exc_$(r3_offset)" and then
have symbols .Lld_exc_0, .Lld_exc_8, .Lld_exc_16 etc. corresponding
to the offsets that needed to be added to r3. However, I couldn't
see a way to do that with gas.
Instead, the exception handler address is .Lld_exc - r3_offset or
.Lst_exc - r3_offset, that is, the distance ahead of .Lld_exc/.Lst_exc
that we start executing is equal to the amount that we need to add to
r3. This works because r3_offset is always a small multiple of 4,
and our instructions are 4 bytes long. This means that before
.Lld_exc and .Lst_exc, we have a sequence of instructions that
increments r3 by 4, 8, 16 or 24 depending on where we start. The
sequence increments r3 by 4 per instruction (on average).
We also replace the exception table for the 4k copy loop by a
macro per load or store. These loads and stores all use exactly
the same exception handler, which simply resets the argument registers
r3, r4 and r5 to there original values and re-does the whole copy
using the slower loop.

Add a macro and some helper C functions for patching single asm
instructions.
The gas macro means we can do something like:
1: nop
patch_site 1b, patch__foo
Which is less visually distracting than defining a GLOBAL symbol at 1,
and also doesn't pollute the symbol table which can confuse eg. perf.
These are obviously similar to our existing feature sections, but are
not automatically patched based on CPU/MMU features, rather they are
designed to be manually patched by C code at some arbitrary point.

The generic implementation of strlen() reads strings byte per byte.
This patch implements strlen() in assembly based on a read of entire
words, in the same spirit as what some other arches and glibc do.
On a 8xx the time spent in strlen is reduced by 3/4 for long strings.
strlen() selftest on an 8xx provides the following values:
Before the patch (ie with the generic strlen() in lib/string.c):
len 256 : time = 1.195055
len 016 : time = 0.083745
len 008 : time = 0.046828
len 004 : time = 0.028390
After the patch:
len 256 : time = 0.272185 ==> 78% improvment
len 016 : time = 0.040632 ==> 51% improvment
len 008 : time = 0.033060 ==> 29% improvment
len 004 : time = 0.029149 ==> 2% degradation
On a 832x:
Before the patch:
len 256 : time = 0.236125
len 016 : time = 0.018136
len 008 : time = 0.011000
len 004 : time = 0.007229
After the patch:
len 256 : time = 0.094950 ==> 60% improvment
len 016 : time = 0.013357 ==> 26% improvment
len 008 : time = 0.010586 ==> 4% improvment

This patch is based on the previous VMX patch on memcmp().
To optimize ppc64 memcmp() with VMX instruction, we need to think about
the VMX penalty brought with: If kernel uses VMX instruction, it needs
to save/restore current thread's VMX registers. There are 32 x 128 bits
VMX registers in PPC, which means 32 x 16 = 512 bytes for load and store.
The major concern regarding the memcmp() performance in kernel is KSM,
who will use memcmp() frequently to merge identical pages. So it will
make sense to take some measures/enhancement on KSM to see whether any
improvement can be done here. Cyril Bur indicates that the memcmp() for
KSM has a higher possibility to fail (unmatch) early in previous bytes
in following mail.
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/817322/#1773629
And I am taking a follow-up on this with this patch.
Per some testing, it shows KSM memcmp() will fail early at previous 32
bytes. More specifically:
- 76% cases will fail/unmatch before 16 bytes;
- 83% cases will fail/unmatch before 32 bytes;
- 84% cases will fail/unmatch before 64 bytes;
So 32 bytes looks a better choice than other bytes for pre-checking.
The early failure is also true for memcmp() for non-KSM case. With a
non-typical call load, it shows ~73% cases fail before first 32 bytes.
This patch adds a 32 bytes pre-checking firstly before jumping into VMX
operations, to avoid the unnecessary VMX penalty. It is not limited to
KSM case. And the testing shows ~20% improvement on memcmp() average
execution time with this patch.
And note the 32B pre-checking is only performed when the compare size
is long enough (>=4K currently) to allow VMX operation.

Currently memcmp() 64bytes version in powerpc will fall back to .Lshort
(compare per byte mode) if either src or dst address is not 8 bytes aligned.
It can be opmitized in 2 situations:
1) if both addresses are with the same offset with 8 bytes boundary:
memcmp() can compare the unaligned bytes within 8 bytes boundary firstly
and then compare the rest 8-bytes-aligned content with .Llong mode.
2) If src/dst addrs are not with the same offset of 8 bytes boundary:
memcmp() can align src addr with 8 bytes, increment dst addr accordingly,
then load src with aligned mode and load dst with unaligned mode.
This patch optmizes memcmp() behavior in the above 2 situations.
Tested with both little/big endian. Performance result below is based on
little endian.

speculation barrier.
Only one barrier type is supported and it does nothing when the
firmware does not enable it. Also re-patching modules is not supported
So the only meaningful thing that can be done is patching out the

On some CPUs we can prevent a vulnerability related to store-to-load
forwarding by preventing store forwarding between privilege domains,
by inserting a barrier in kernel entry and exit paths.
This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9
powerpc CPUs.
Barriers must be inserted generally before the first load after moving
to a higher privilege, and after the last store before moving to a
lower privilege, HV and PR privilege transitions must be protected.
Barriers are added as patch sections, with all kernel/hypervisor entry
points patched, and the exit points to lower privilge levels patched
similarly to the RFI flush patching.
Firmware advertisement is not implemented yet, so CPU flush types
are hard coded.

Add a test of the relative branch patching logic in the alternate
section feature fixup code. This tests that if we branch past the last
instruction of the alternate section, the branch is not patched.
That's because the assembler will have created a branch that already
points to the first instruction after the patched section, which is
correct and needs no further patching.

The code patching code has always been a bit confused about whether
it's best to use void *, unsigned int *, char *, etc. to point to
instructions. In fact in the feature fixups tests we use both unsigned
int[] and u8[] in different places.
Unfortunately the tests that use unsigned int[] calculate the size of
the code blocks using subtraction of those unsigned int pointers, and
then pass the result to memcmp(). This means we're only comparing 1/4
of the bytes we need to, because we need to multiply by
sizeof(unsigned int) to get the number of *bytes*.
The result is that the tests do all the patching and then only compare
some of the resulting code, so patching bugs that only effect that
last 3/4 of the code could slip through undetected. It turns out that
hasn't been happening, although one test had a bad expected case (see
previous commit).
Fix it for now by multiplying the size by 4 in the affected functions.

The expected case for this test was wrong, the source of the alternate
code sequence is:
FTR_SECTION_ELSE
2: or 2,2,2
PPC_LCMPI r3,1
beq 3f
blt 2b
b 3f
b 1b
ALT_FTR_SECTION_END(0, 1)
3: or 1,1,1
or 2,2,2
4: or 3,3,3
So when it's patched the '3' label should still be on the 'or 1,1,1',
and the 4 label is irrelevant and can be removed.

When we patch an alternate feature section, we have to adjust any
relative branches that branch out of the alternate section.
But currently we have a bug if we have a branch that points to past
the last instruction of the alternate section, eg:
FTR_SECTION_ELSE
1: b 2f
or 6,6,6
2:
ALT_FTR_SECTION_END(...)
nop
This will result in a relative branch at 1 with a target that equals
the end of the alternate section.
That branch does not need adjusting when it's moved to the non-else
location. Currently we do adjust it, resulting in a branch that goes
off into the link-time location of the else section, which is junk.
The fix is to not patch branches that have a target == end of the
alternate section.

Currently the rfi-flush messages print 'Using <type> flush' for all
enabled_flush_types, but that is not necessarily true -- as now the
fallback flush is always enabled on pseries, but the fixup function
overwrites its nop/branch slot with other flush types, if available.
So, replace the 'Using <type> flush' messages with '<type> flush is
available'.
Also, print the patched flush types in the fixup function, so users
can know what is (not) being used (e.g., the slower, fallback flush,
or no flush type at all if flush is disabled via the debugfs switch).

Merge our fixes branch from the 4.15 cycle.
Unusually the fixes branch saw some significant features merged,
notably the RFI flush patches, so we want the code in next to be
tested against that, to avoid any surprises when the two are merged.
There's also some other work on the panic handling that was reverted
in fixes and we now want to do properly in next, which would conflict.
And we also fix a few other minor merge conflicts.
feature fixups need to use patch_instruction() early in the boot,
even before the code is relocated to its final address, requiring
patch_instruction() to use PTRRELOC() in order to address data.
But feature fixups applies on code before it is set to read only,
even for modules. Therefore, feature fixups can use
raw_patch_instruction() instead.

On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the
L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to
guest.
This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At
this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs
such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale
CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other
mechanisms on those CPUs.
The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally
inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is
speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the
address of a subsequent speculatively executed load.
In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1,
because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is
performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the
vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by
flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for
hypervisor vs guest.
In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at
each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and
patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise
to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D.
If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement
flush in software.
For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and
different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are
prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction
activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at
boot if the hypervisor tells us to.
In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and
Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis
of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc.
Many thanks to all of them.

There's one more fix for the >128T handling on hash. Once a process had

Implement the architecture specific cache maintence functions that make
up the "PMEM API". Currently the writeback and invalidate functions
are the same since the function of the DCBST (data cache block store)
instruction is typically interpreted as "writeback to the point of
coherency" rather than to memory. As a result implementing the API
requires a full cache flush rather than just a cache write back. This
will probably change in the not-too-distant future.

We have some dependencies & conflicts between patches in fixes and
things to go in next, both in the radix TLB flush code and the IMC PMU
driver. So merge fixes into next.
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Commit 350779a29f ("powerpc: Handle most loads and stores in

in get_vr and put_vr with the aim of leaving the register number in
r3 untouched on return. Unfortunately, r6 was not a good choice, as
the callers as of 350779a29f store a MSR value in r6. Then, in
commit c22435a5f3 ("powerpc: Emulate FP/vector/VSX loads/stores

of the MSR got moved into get_vr and put_vr. Either way, the effect
is that we put a value in MSR that only has the 0x3f8 bits non-zero,
meaning that we are switching to 32-bit mode. That leads to a crash

To fix this, we just revert to using r3 as before, since the callers

Fortunately, this can't be triggered by a misaligned load or store,
because vector loads and stores truncate misaligned addresses rather

The last part of memset() handling the not 4-bytes multiples
operates on bytes, making it unsuitable for handling word without

better to implement memset16() from scratch. In addition it

we would have by using the memset() function.

Michael Ellerman reported that emulate_loadstore() was trying to
access element 32 of regs->gpr[], which doesn't exist, when
emulating a string store instruction. This is because the string
load and store instructions (lswi, lswx, stswi and stswx) are
defined to wrap around from register 31 to register 0 if the number
of bytes being loaded or stored is sufficiently large. This wrapping
was not implemented in the emulation code. To fix it, we mask the

fix_alignment() with calls to analyse_instr(), emulate_loadstore()

emulation code; analyse_instr() etc. do not handle SPE instructions

One result of this is that we can now handle alignment faults on
all the new VSX load and store instructions that were added in POWER9.
VSX loads/stores will take alignment faults for unaligned accesses
to cache-inhibited memory.
Another effect is that we no longer rely on the DAR and DSISR values

This also enables the emulation for the multiple-register loads
and stores (lmw, stmw, lswi, stswi, lswx, stswx) to work for
little-endian. In little-endian mode, the partial word at the
end of a transfer for lsw*/stsw* (when the byte count is not a
multiple of 4) is loaded/stored at the least-significant end of
the register. Additionally, this fixes a bug in the previous
code in that it could call read_mem/write_mem with a byte count
that was not 1, 2, 4 or 8.
Note that this only works correctly on processors with "true"
little-endian mode, such as IBM POWER processors from POWER6 on, not

At present, the analyse_instr/emulate_step code checks for the
relevant MSR_FP/VEC/VSX bit being set when a FP/VMX/VSX load
or store is decoded, but doesn't recheck the bit before reading or
writing the relevant FP/VMX/VSX register in emulate_step().
Since we don't have preemption disabled, it is possible that we get
preempted between checking the MSR bit and doing the register access.
If that happened, then the registers would have been saved to the
thread_struct for the current process. Accesses to the CPU registers
would then potentially read stale values, or write values that would
never be seen by the user process.
Another way that the registers can become non-live is if a page
fault occurs when accessing user memory, and the page fault code
calls a copy routine that wants to use the VMX or VSX registers.
To fix this, the code for all the FP/VMX/VSX loads gets restructured
so that it forms an image in a local variable of the desired register
contents, then disables preemption, checks the MSR bit and either
sets the CPU register or writes the value to the thread struct.
Similarly, the code for stores checks the MSR bit, copies either the
CPU register or the thread struct to a local variable, then reenables
preemption and then copies the register image to memory.
If the instruction being emulated is in the kernel, then we must not
use the register values in the thread_struct. In this case, if the
relevant MSR enable bit is not set, then emulate_step refuses to
emulate the instruction.

At the moment, emulation of loads and stores of up to 8 bytes to
unaligned addresses on a little-endian system uses a sequence of
single-byte loads or stores to memory. This is rather inefficient,
and the code is hard to follow because it has many ifdefs.
In addition, the Power ISA has requirements on how unaligned accesses
are performed, which are not met by doing all accesses as
sequences of single-byte accesses.
Emulation of VSX loads and stores uses __copy_{to,from}_user,
which means the emulation code has no control on the size of
accesses.
To simplify this, we add new copy_mem_in() and copy_mem_out()
functions for accessing memory. These use a sequence of the largest
possible aligned accesses, up to 8 bytes (or 4 on 32-bit systems),
to copy memory between a local buffer and user memory. We then
rewrite {read,write}_mem_unaligned and the VSX load/store
emulation using these new functions.
These new functions also simplify the code in do_fp_load() and
do_fp_store() for the unaligned cases.

The addpcis instruction puts the sum of the next instruction address
plus a constant into a register. Since the result depends on the
address of the instruction, it will give an incorrect result if it
is single-stepped out of line, which is what the *probes subsystem
will currently do if a probe is placed on an addpcis instruction.
This fixes the problem by adding emulation of it to analyse_instr().

The architecture shows the least-significant bit of the instruction
word as reserved for the popcnt[bwd], prty[wd] and bpermd
instructions, that is, these instructions never update CR0.
Therefore this changes the emulation of these instructions to
skip the CR0 update.

The case added for the isel instruction was added inside a switch
statement which uses the 10-bit minor opcode field in the 0x7fe
bits of the instruction word. However, for the isel instruction,
the minor opcode field is only the 0x3e bits, and the 0x7c0 bits
are used for the "BC" field, which indicates which CR bit to use
to select the result.
Therefore, for the isel emulation to work correctly when BC != 0,
we need to match on ((instr >> 1) & 0x1f) == 15). To do this, we
pull the isel case out of the switch statement and put it in an
if statement of its own.

When a 64-bit processor is executing in 32-bit mode, the update forms
of load and store instructions are required by the architecture to
write the full 64-bit effective address into the RA register, though
only the bottom 32 bits are used to address memory. Currently,
the instruction emulation code writes the truncated address to the
RA register. This fixes it by keeping the full 64-bit EA in the
instruction_op structure, truncating the address in emulate_step()
where it is used to address memory, rather than in the address
computations in analyse_instr().

This extends the instruction emulation infrastructure in sstep.c to
handle all the load and store instructions defined in the Power ISA
v3.0, except for the atomic memory operations, ldmx (which was never
implemented), lfdp/stfdp, and the vector element load/stores.
The instructions added are:
Integer loads and stores: lbarx, lharx, lqarx, stbcx., sthcx., stqcx.,
lq, stq.
VSX loads and stores: lxsiwzx, lxsiwax, stxsiwx, lxvx, lxvl, lxvll,
lxvdsx, lxvwsx, stxvx, stxvl, stxvll, lxsspx, lxsdx, stxsspx, stxsdx,
lxvw4x, lxsibzx, lxvh8x, lxsihzx, lxvb16x, stxvw4x, stxsibx, stxvh8x,
stxsihx, stxvb16x, lxsd, lxssp, lxv, stxsd, stxssp, stxv.
These instructions are handled both in the analyse_instr phase and in
the emulate_step phase.
The code for lxvd2ux and stxvd2ux has been taken out, as those
instructions were never implemented in any processor and have been
taken out of the architecture, and their opcodes have been reused for
other instructions in POWER9 (lxvb16x and stxvb16x).
The emulation for the VSX loads and stores uses helper functions
which don't access registers or memory directly, which can hopefully
be reused by KVM later.

This removes the checks for the FP/VMX/VSX enable bits in the MSR
from analyse_instr() and adds them to emulate_step() instead.
The reason for this is that we may want to use analyse_instr() in
a situation where the FP/VMX/VSX register values are stored in the
current thread_struct and the FP/VMX/VSX enable bits in the MSR
image in the pt_regs are zero. Since analyse_instr() doesn't make
any changes to register state, it is reasonable for it to indicate
what the effect of an instruction would be even though the relevant
enable bit is off.

The analyse_instr function currently doesn't just work out what an
instruction does, it also executes those instructions whose effect
is only to update CPU registers that are stored in struct pt_regs.
This is undesirable because optprobes uses analyse_instr to work out
if an instruction could be successfully emulated in future.
This changes analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs; instead it
stores information in the instruction_op structure to indicate what
registers (GPRs, CR, XER, LR) would be set and what value they would
be set to. A companion function called emulate_update_regs() can
then use that information to update a pt_regs struct appropriately.
As a minor cleanup, this replaces inline asm using the cntlzw and
cntlzd instructions with calls to __builtin_clz() and __builtin_clzl().

Testing the fortified string functions[1] would cause a kernel panic on
boot in test_feature_fixups() due to a buffer overflow in memcmp.
This boils down to things like this:
extern unsigned int ftr_fixup_test1;
extern unsigned int ftr_fixup_test1_orig;
check(memcmp(&ftr_fixup_test1, &ftr_fixup_test1_orig, size) == 0);
We know that these are asm labels so it is safe to read up to 'size'
bytes at those addresses.
However, because we have passed the address of a single unsigned int to
memcmp, the compiler believes the underlying object is in fact a single
unsigned int. So if size > sizeof(unsigned int), there will be a panic
at runtime.
We can fix this by changing the types: instead of calling the asm labels
unsigned ints, call them unsigned int[]s. Therefore the size isn't
incorrectly determined at compile time and we get a regular unsafe
memcmp and no panic.

setup of these alternate mapping areas, we continue to use direct
write to change/modify kernel text. With the ability to use alternate
mappings to write to kernel text, it provides us the freedom to then
turn text read-only and implement CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX.

Five fairly small fixes for things that went in this cycle.
A fairly large patch to rework the CAS logic on Power9, necessitated by a late
change to the firmware API, and we can't boot without it.
Three fixes going to stable, allowing more instructions to be emulated on LE,
fixing a boot crash on 32-bit Freescale BookE machines, and the OPAL XICS
workaround.
And a patch from me to sort the selects under CONFIG PPC. Annoying churn, but
worth it in the long run, and best for it to go in now to avoid conflicts.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

Current infrastructure of kprobe uses the unconditional trap instruction
to probe a running kernel. Optprobe allows kprobe to replace the trap
with a branch instruction to a detour buffer. Detour buffer contains
instructions to create an in memory pt_regs. Detour buffer also has a
call to optimized_callback() which in turn call the pre_handler(). After
the execution of the pre-handler, a call is made for instruction
emulation. The NIP is determined in advanced through dummy instruction
emulation and a branch instruction is created to the NIP at the end of
the trampoline.
To address the limitation of branch instruction in POWER architecture,
detour buffer slot is allocated from a reserved area. For the time
being, 64KB is reserved in memory for this purpose.
Instructions which can be emulated using analyse_instr() are the
candidates for optimization. Before optimization ensure that the address
range between the detour buffer allocated and the instruction being
probed is within +/- 32MB.

To permit the use of relative branch instruction in powerpc, the target
address has to be relatively nearby, since the address is specified in an
immediate field (24 bit filed) in the instruction opcode itself. Here
nearby refers to 32MB on either side of the current instruction.
This patch verifies whether the target address is within +/- 32MB
range or not.

Debugging a data corruption issue with virtio-net/vhost-net led to
the observation that __copy_tofrom_user was occasionally returning
a value 16 larger than it should. Since the return value from
__copy_tofrom_user is the number of bytes not copied, this means
that __copy_tofrom_user can occasionally return a value larger
than the number of bytes it was asked to copy. In turn this can
cause higher-level copy functions such as copy_page_to_iter_iovec
to corrupt memory by copying data into the wrong memory locations.
It turns out that the failing case involves a fault on the store
at label 79, and at that point the first unmodified byte of the
destination is at R3 + 16. Consequently the exception handler
for that store needs to add 16 to R3 before using it to work out
how many bytes were not copied, but in this one case it was not
adding the offset to R3. To fix it, this moves the label 179 to
the point where we add 16 to R3. I have checked manually all the
exception handlers for the loads and stores in this code and the
rest of them are correct (it would be excellent to have an
automated test of all the exception cases).
This bug has been present since this code was initially
committed in May 2002 to Linux version 2.5.20.

But that never happened, powerpc is the only architecture which uses it.

We do binary patching of asm code using CPU features, which is a
one-time operation, done during early boot. However checks of CPU
features in C code are currently done at run time, even though the set
of CPU features can never change after boot.
We can optimise this by using jump labels to implement cpu_has_feature(),
meaning checks in C code are binary patched into a single nop or branch.
For a C sequence along the lines of:
if (cpu_has_feature(FOO))
return 2;
The generated code before is roughly:
ld r9,-27640(r2)
ld r9,0(r9)
lwz r9,32(r9)
cmpwi cr7,r9,0
bge cr7, 1f
li r3,2

Early in boot we binary patch some sections of code based on the CPU and
MMU feature bits. But it is a one-time patching, there is no facility
for repatching the code later if the set of features change.
It is a major bug if the set of features changes after we've done the
code patching - so add a check for it.

There is an ordering issue with spin_unlock_wait() on powerpc, because
the spin_lock primitive is an ACQUIRE and an ACQUIRE is only ordering
the load part of the operation with memory operations following it.
Therefore the following event sequence can happen:
CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
================== ==================== ==============
spin_unlock(&lock);
spin_lock(&lock):
r1 = *lock; // r1 == 0;
o = object; o = READ_ONCE(object); // reordered here
object = NULL;
smp_mb();
spin_unlock_wait(&lock);
*lock = 1;
smp_mb();
o->dead = true; < o = READ_ONCE(object); > // reordered upwards
if (o) // true
BUG_ON(o->dead); // true!!
To fix this, we add a "nop" ll/sc loop in arch_spin_unlock_wait() on
ppc, the "nop" ll/sc loop reads the lock
value and writes it back atomically, in this way it will synchronize the
view of the lock on CPU1 with that on CPU2. Therefore in the scenario
above, either CPU2 will fail to get the lock at first or CPU1 will see
the lock acquired by CPU2, both cases will eliminate this bug. This is a
similar idea as what Will Deacon did for ARM64 in:
d86b8da04d ("arm64: spinlock: serialise spin_unlock_wait against concurrent lockers")
Furthermore, if the "nop" ll/sc figures out the lock is locked, we
actually don't need to do the "nop" ll/sc trick again, we can just do a
normal load+check loop for the lock to be released, because in that
case, spin_unlock_wait() is called when someone is holding the lock, and
the store part of the "nop" ll/sc happens before the lock release of the
current lock holder:
"nop" ll/sc -> spin_unlock()
and the lock release happens before the next lock acquisition:
spin_unlock() -> spin_lock() <next holder>
which means the "nop" ll/sc happens before the next lock acquisition:
"nop" ll/sc -> spin_unlock() -> spin_lock() <next holder>
With a smp_mb() preceding spin_unlock_wait(), the store of object is
guaranteed to be observed by the next lock holder:
STORE -> smp_mb() -> "nop" ll/sc
-> spin_unlock() -> spin_lock() <next holder>
This patch therefore fixes the issue and also cleans the
arch_spin_unlock_wait() a little bit by removing superfluous memory
barriers in loops and consolidating the implementations for PPC32 and
PPC64 into one.

There is a switch fallthough in instr_analyze() which can cause an
invalid instruction to be emulated as a different, valid, instruction.
The rld* (opcode 30) case extracts a sub-opcode from bits 3:1 of the
instruction word. However, the only valid values of this field are 001
and 000. These cases are correctly handled, but the others are not which
causes execution to fall through into case 31.
Breaking out of the switch causes the instruction to be marked as
unknown and allows the caller to deal with the invalid instruction in a
manner consistent with other invalid instructions.

Freescale updates from Scott:
"Highlights include 8xx optimizations, 32-bit checksum optimizations,
86xx consolidation, e5500/e6500 cpu hotplug, more fman and other dt
bits, and minor fixes/cleanup."
csum_partial is often called for small fixed length packets
for which it is suboptimal to use the generic csum_partial()
function.
For instance, in my configuration, I got:
* One place calling it with constant len 4
* Seven places calling it with constant len 8
* Three places calling it with constant len 14
* One place calling it with constant len 20
* One place calling it with constant len 24
* One place calling it with constant len 32
This patch renames csum_partial() to __csum_partial() and
implements csum_partial() as a wrapper inline function which
* uses csum_add() for small 16bits multiple constant length
* uses ip_fast_csum() for other 32bits multiple constant
* uses __csum_partial() in all other cases

r5 does contain the value to be updated, so lets use r5 all way long
for that. It makes the code more readable.
To avoid confusion, it is better to use adde instead of addc
The first addition is useless. Its only purpose is to clear carry.
As r4 is a signed int that is always positive, this can be done by
using srawi instead of srwi
Let's also remove the comment about bdnz having no overhead as it
is not correct on all powerpc, at least on MPC8xx
In the last part, in our situation, the remaining quantity of bytes
to be proceeded is between 0 and 3. Therefore, we can base that part
on the value of bit 31 and bit 30 of r4 instead of anding r4 with 3
then proceding on comparisons and substractions.

csum_partial_copy_generic() does the same as copy_tofrom_user and also
calculates the checksum during the copy. Unlike copy_tofrom_user(),
the existing version of csum_partial_copy_generic() doesn't take
benefit of the cache.
This patch is a rewrite of csum_partial_copy_generic() based on
copy_tofrom_user().
The previous version of csum_partial_copy_generic() was handling
errors. Now we have the checksum wrapper functions to handle the error
case like in powerpc64 so we can make the error case simple:
just return -EFAULT.
copy_tofrom_user() only has r12 available => we use it for the
checksum r7 and r8 which contains pointers to error feedback are used,
so we stack them.
On a TCP benchmark using socklib on the loopback interface on which
checksum offload and scatter/gather have been deactivated, we get
about 20% performance increase.

We have a powerpc specific global called mem_init_done which is "set on
boot once kmalloc can be called".
But that's not *quite* true. We set it at the bottom of mem_init(), and
rely on the fact that mm_init() calls kmem_cache_init() immediately
after that, and nothing is running in parallel.
So replace it with the generic and 100% correct slab_is_available().

I noticed ksm spending quite a lot of time in memcmp on a large
KVM box. The current memcmp loop is very unoptimised - byte at a
time compares with no loop unrolling. We can do much much better.
Optimise the loop in a few ways:
- Unroll the byte at a time loop
- For large (at least 32 byte) comparisons that are also 8 byte
aligned, use an unrolled modulo scheduled loop using 8 byte
loads. This is similar to our glibc memcmp.
A simple microbenchmark testing 10000000 iterations of an 8192 byte
memcmp was used to measure the performance:
baseline: 29.93 s
modified: 1.70 s
Just over 17x faster.
v2: Incorporated some suggestions from Segher:
- Use andi. instead of rdlicl.
- Convert bdnzt eq, to bdnz. It's just duplicating the earlier compare
and was a relic from a previous version.
- Don't use cr5, we have plans to use that CR field for fast local
atomics.

Although we are now selecting NO_BOOTMEM, we still have some traces of
bootmem lying around. That is because even with NO_BOOTMEM there is
still a shim that converts bootmem calls into memblock calls, but
ultimately we want to remove all traces of bootmem.
Most of the patch is conversions from alloc_bootmem() to
memblock_virt_alloc(). In general a call such as:
p = (struct foo *)alloc_bootmem(x);
Becomes:
p = memblock_virt_alloc(x, 0);
We don't need the cast because memblock_virt_alloc() returns a void *.
The alignment value of zero tells memblock to use the default alignment,
which is SMP_CACHE_BYTES, the same value alloc_bootmem() uses.
We remove a number of NULL checks on the result of
memblock_virt_alloc(). That is because memblock_virt_alloc() will panic
if it can't allocate, in exactly the same way as alloc_bootmem(), so the
NULL checks are and always have been redundant.
The memory returned by memblock_virt_alloc() is already zeroed, so we
remove several memsets of the result of memblock_virt_alloc().
Finally we convert a few uses of __alloc_bootmem(x, y, MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
to just plain memblock_virt_alloc(). We don't use memblock_alloc_base()
because MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is ~0ul on powerpc, so limiting the allocation
to that is pointless, 16XB ought to be enough for anyone.

This splits out the instruction analysis part of emulate_step() into
a separate analyse_instr() function, which decodes the instruction,
but doesn't execute any load or store instructions. It does execute
integer instructions and branches which can be executed purely by
updating register values in the pt_regs struct. For other instructions,
it returns the instruction type and other details in a new
instruction_op struct. emulate_step() then uses that information
to execute loads, stores, cache operations, mfmsr, mtmsr[d], and
(on 64-bit) sc instructions.
The reason for doing this is so that the KVM code can use it instead
of having its own separate instruction emulation code. Possibly the
alignment interrupt handler could also use this.

We need a barrier on entry to ensure any spinlock we have previously

This series adds support for building the powerpc 64-bit
LE kernel using the new ABI v2. We already supported
running ABI v2 userspace programs but this adds support
for building the kernel itself using the new ABI.
Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian.
This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores.
Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops
(which are already endian safe).
The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit
memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is.
Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because
we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through
rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for
all other 64bit platforms.

Some of the assembler files in lib/ make use of the fact that in the
ELFv1 ABI, the caller guarantees to provide stack space to save the
parameter registers r3 ... r10. This guarantee is no longer present
in ELFv2 for functions that have no variable argument list and no
more than 8 arguments.
Change the affected routines to temporarily store registers in the
red zone and/or the top of their own stack frame (in the space
provided to save r31 .. r29, which is actually not used in these
routines).
In opal_query_takeover, simply always allocate a stack frame;

This patch modifies the unaligned access routines of the sstep.c
module so that it properly reverses the bytes of storage operands
in the little endian kernel kernel. This is implemented by
breaking an unaligned little endian access into a combination of
single byte accesses plus an overal byte reversal operation.

The csum_partial_copy_generic() function saves the PowerPC non-volatile

Unfortunately, it fails to restore them upon error exit from this loop,
which results in silent corruption of these registers in the presumably
rare event of an access exception within that loop.
This commit therefore restores these register on error exit from the loop.

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

The stmw instruction was incorrectly decoded as an update form instruction
and thus the RA register was being clobbered.
Also, the utility routine to write memory to unaligned addresses breaks the

Finally remove the two level TOC and build with -mcmodel=medium.
Unfortunately we can't build modules with -mcmodel=medium due to
the tricks the kernel module loader plays with percpu data:
# -mcmodel=medium breaks modules because it uses 32bit offsets from
# the TOC pointer to create pointers where possible. Pointers into the
# percpu data area are created by this method.
#
# The kernel module loader relocates the percpu data section from the

# kernel percpu data space (starting with 0xc...). We need a full

Version 2.06 of the POWER ISA introduced enhanced touch instructions,

This patch adds a software stream for both loads and stores in the
POWER7 copy_tofrom_user loop. Since the setup is quite complicated
and we have to use an eieio to ensure correct ordering of the "GO"
command we only do this for copies above 4kB.
To quantify any performance improvements we need a working set
bigger than the caches so we operate on a 1GB file:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1024
And we compare how fast we can read the file:
# dd if=/tmp/foo of=/dev/null bs=1M
before: 7.7 GB/s
after: 9.6 GB/s
A 25% improvement.
The worst case for this patch will be a completely L1 cache contained
copy of just over 4kB. We can test this with the copy_to_user

I noticed __clear_user high up in a profile of one of my RAID stress
tests. The testcase was doing a dd from /dev/zero which ends up
calling __clear_user.
__clear_user is basically a loop with a single 4 byte store which
is horribly slow. We can do much better by aligning the desination
and doing 32 bytes of 8 byte stores in a loop.

Implement a POWER7 optimised copy_to_user/copy_from_user using VMX.
For large aligned copies this new loop is over 10% faster, and for
large unaligned copies it is over 200% faster.
If we take a fault we fall back to the old version, this keeps
things relatively simple and easy to verify.
On POWER7 unaligned stores rarely slow down - they only flush when
a store crosses a 4KB page boundary. Furthermore this flush is
handled completely in hardware and should be 20-30 cycles.
Unaligned loads on the other hand flush much more often - whenever
crossing a 128 byte cache line, or a 32 byte sector if either sector
is an L1 miss.
Considering this information we really want to get the loads aligned
and not worry about the alignment of the stores. Microbenchmarks
confirm that this approach is much faster than the current unaligned
copy loop that uses shifts and rotates to ensure both loads and
stores are aligned.
We also want to try and do the stores in cacheline aligned, cacheline
sized chunks. If the store queue is unable to merge an entire
cacheline of stores then the L2 cache will have to do a
read/modify/write. Even worse, we will serialise this with the stores
in the next iteration of the copy loop since both iterations hit
the same cacheline.
Based on this, the new loop does the following things:
1 - 127 bytes
Get the source 8 byte aligned and use 8 byte loads and stores. Pretty
boring and similar to how the current loop works.
128 - 4095 bytes
Get the source 8 byte aligned and use 8 byte loads and stores,
1 cacheline at a time. We aren't doing the stores in cacheline
aligned chunks so we will potentially serialise once per cacheline.
Even so it is much better than the loop we have today.
4096 - bytes
If both source and destination have the same alignment get them both
16 byte aligned, then get the destination cacheline aligned. Do
cacheline sized loads and stores using VMX.
If source and destination do not have the same alignment, we get the
destination cacheline aligned, and use permute to do aligned loads.
In both cases the VMX loop should be optimal - we always do aligned
loads and stores and are always doing stores in cacheline aligned,
cacheline sized chunks.
To be able to use VMX we must be careful about interrupts and
sleeping. We don't use the VMX loop when in an interrupt (which should
be rare anyway) and we wrap the VMX loop in disable/enable_pagefault
and fall back to the existing copy_tofrom_user loop if we do need to
sleep.
The VMX breakpoint of 4096 bytes was chosen using this microbenchmark:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c
Since we are using VMX and there is a cost to saving and restoring
the user VMX state there are two broad cases we need to benchmark:
- Best case - userspace never uses VMX
- Worst case - userspace always uses VMX
In reality a userspace process will sit somewhere between these two
extremes. Since we need to test both aligned and unaligned copies we
end up with 4 combinations. The point at which the VMX loop begins to
win is:
0% VMX
aligned 2048 bytes
unaligned 2048 bytes
100% VMX
aligned 16384 bytes
unaligned 8192 bytes
Considering this is a microbenchmark, the data is hot in cache and
the VMX loop has better store queue merging properties we set the
breakpoint to 4096 bytes, a little below the unaligned breakpoints.
Some future optimisations we can look at:
- Looking at the perf data, a significant part of the cost when a
task is always using VMX is the extra exception we take to restore
the VMX state. As such we should do something similar to the x86
optimisation that restores FPU state for heavy users. ie:
/*
* If the task has used fpu the last 5 timeslices, just do a full
* restore of the math state immediately to avoid the trap; the
* chances of needing FPU soon are obviously high now
*/
preload_fpu = tsk_used_math(next_p) && next_p->fpu_counter > 5;
and
/*
* fpu_counter contains the number of consecutive context switches
* that the FPU is used. If this is over a threshold, the lazy fpu
* saving becomes unlazy to save the trap. This is an unsigned char
* so that after 256 times the counter wraps and the behavior turns
* lazy again; this to deal with bursty apps that only use FPU for
* a short time
*/
- We could create a paca bit to mirror the VMX enabled MSR bit and check
that first, avoiding multiple calls to calling enable_kernel_altivec.
That should help with iovec based system calls like readv.
- We could have two VMX breakpoints, one for when we know the user VMX
state is loaded into the registers and one when it isn't. This could
be a second bit in the paca so we can calculate the break points quickly.
- One suggestion from Ben was to save and restore the VSX registers
we use inline instead of using enable_kernel_altivec.
