commit fea559f303567e558bfab9c8ba4a2af5b309205a upstream.

Implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() for powerpc

Commit 9b01f5bf3 introduced a dependency on "IRQ work self-IPIs" for
full dynamic ticks to be enabled, by expecting architectures to
implement a suitable arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() routine.

Several arches have implemented this routine, including x86 (3010279f)
and arm (09f6edd4), but powerpc was omitted.

This patch implements this routine for powerpc.

The symptom, at boot (on powerpc systems) with "nohz_full=&lt;CPU list&gt;"
is displayed:

     NO_HZ: Can't run full dynticks because arch doesn't support irq work self-IPIs

after this patch:

     NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: &lt;CPU list&gt;.

Tested against 3.19.

powerpc implements "IRQ work self-IPIs" by setting the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(), which causes a decrementer exception on the next
timebase tick. We then handle the work in __timer_interrupt().

commit d52356e7f48e400ca258c6763a232a92fa82ff68 upstream.

Space allocated for paca is based off nr_cpu_ids,
but pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() iterates paca with
cpu_nr_cores()*threads_per_core, which is using NR_CPUS.

This causes pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() to write over memory,
which is outside of paca array and may later lead to various panics.

<title>powerpc/iommu: Remove IOMMU device references via bus notifier</title>

commit 4ad04e5987115ece5fa8a0cf1dc72fcd4707e33e upstream.

After d905c5df9aef ("PPC: POWERNV: move iommu_add_device earlier"), the
refcnt on the kobject backing the IOMMU group for a PCI device is
elevated by each call to pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP() (via
set_iommu_table_base_and_group). When we go to dlpar a multi-function
PCI device out:

        iommu_reconfig_notifier -&gt;
                iommu_free_table -&gt;
                        iommu_group_put
                        BUG_ON(tbl-&gt;it_group)

We trip this BUG_ON, because there are still references on the table, so
it is not freed. Fix this by moving the powernv bus notifier to common
code and calling it for both powernv and pseries.

commit 6f963ec2d6bf2476a16799eece920acb2100ff1c upstream.

When unbinding and rebinding the driver on a system with a card in PHB0, this
error condition is reached after a few attempts:

<title>powerpc: Work around gcc bug in current_thread_info()</title>

In commit a3e5b356b3ab "powerpc: Don't use local named register variable
in current_thread_info" Anton changed the way we did current_thread_info()
to accommodate LLVM, and it was not meant to have any effect elsewhere.

Unfortunately it has exposed a gcc bug, where r1 gets copied into
another register and then gcc uses that register to restore the toc
after a function call, even when that register is volatile and has been
clobbered by the function call.

We could revert Anton's patch, but it's not clear the original code is
safe either, we may just have been lucky.

The cleanest solution is to just use the existing CURRENT_THREAD_INFO()
asm macro, and call it using inline asm.

Segher points out we don't need volatile on the asm, if the result of
the shift is unused it's fine for the compiler to elide it.

<content type='text'>
In LE kernel, we currently have a hack for kexec that resets the exception
endian before starting a new kernel as the kernel that is loaded could be a
big endian or a little endian kernel. In kdump case, resetting exception
endian fails when one or more cpus is disabled. But we can ignore the failure
and still go ahead, as in most cases crashkernel will be of same endianess
as primary kernel and reseting endianess is not even needed in those cases.
This patch adds a new inline function to say if this is kdump path. This
function is used at places where such a check is needed.

Pull second batch of powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "The highlight is the series that reworks the idle management on
  powernv, which allows us to use deeper idle states on those machines.

  There's the fix from Anton for the "BUG at kernel/smpboot.c:134!"
  problem.

  An i2c driver for powernv.  This is acked by Wolfram Sang, and he
  asked that we take it through the powerpc tree.

  A fix for audit from rgb at Red Hat, acked by Paul Moore who is one of
  the audit maintainers.

  A patch from Ben to export the symbol map of our OPAL firmware as a
  sysfs file, so that tools can use it.

  Also some CXL fixes, a couple of powerpc perf fixes, a fix for
  smt-enabled, and the patch to add __force to get_user() so we can use
  bitwise types"

* tag 'powerpc-3.19-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mpe/linux:
  powerpc/powernv: Ignore smt-enabled on Power8 and later
  powerpc/uaccess: Allow get_user() with bitwise types
  powerpc/powernv: Expose OPAL firmware symbol map
  powernv/powerpc: Add winkle support for offline cpus
  powernv/cpuidle: Redesign idle states management
  powerpc/powernv: Enable Offline CPUs to enter deep idle states
  powerpc/powernv: Switch off MMU before entering nap/sleep/rvwinkle mode
  i2c: Driver to expose PowerNV platform i2c busses

  power/perf/hv-24x7: Use kmem_cache_free() instead of kfree
  powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Use per-cpu page buffer
  cxl: Unmap MMIO regions when detaching a context
  cxl: Add timeout to process element commands
  cxl: Change contexts_lock to a mutex to fix sleep while atomic bug

   - spring cleaning: removed support for IA64, and for hardware-

   - usual round of hardware-compliancy fixes from Nadav
   - APICv fixes
   - XSAVES support for hosts and guests.  XSAVES hosts were broken
     because the (non-KVM) XSAVES patches inadvertently changed the KVM
