Recently, the spinlock implementation grew a static key optimization,
but the jump_label.h header include was left out, leading to build
errors:

  linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/spinlock.h:44:7: error: implicit declaration of function ‘static_branch_unlikely’
   44 |  if (!static_branch_unlikely(&amp;shared_processor))

This commit adds the missing header.

mpe: The build break is only seen with CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n.

<title>powerpc: Fix __clear_user() with KUAP enabled</title>

<id>61e3acd8c693a14fc69b824cb5b08d02cb90a6e7</id>
<content type='text'>
The KUAP implementation adds calls in clear_user() to enable and
disable access to userspace memory. However, it doesn't add these to
__clear_user(), which is used in the ptrace regset code.

As there's only one direct user of __clear_user() (the regset code),
and the time taken to set the AMR for KUAP purposes is going to
dominate the cost of a quick access_ok(), there's not much point
having a separate path.

Rename __clear_user() to __arch_clear_user(), and make __clear_user()
just call clear_user().

<title>powerpc/vcpu: Assume dedicated processors as non-preempt</title>

<content type='text'>
With commit 247f2f6f3c70 ("sched/core: Don't schedule threads on
pre-empted vCPUs"), the scheduler avoids preempted vCPUs to schedule
tasks on wakeup. This leads to wrong choice of CPU, which in-turn
leads to larger wakeup latencies. Eventually, it leads to performance
regression in latency sensitive benchmarks like soltp, schbench etc.

On Powerpc, vcpu_is_preempted() only looks at yield_count. If the
yield_count is odd, the vCPU is assumed to be preempted. However
yield_count is increased whenever the LPAR enters CEDE state (idle).
So any CPU that has entered CEDE state is assumed to be preempted.

Even if vCPU of dedicated LPAR is preempted/donated, it should have
right of first-use since they are supposed to own the vCPU.

Pull more powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "A few commits splitting the KASAN instrumented bitops header in three,
  to match the split of the asm-generic bitops headers.

  This is needed on powerpc because we use the generic bitops for the
  non-atomic case only, whereas the existing KASAN instrumented bitops
  assume all the underlying operations are provided by the arch as
  arch_foo() versions.

  Thanks to: Daniel Axtens &amp; Christophe Leroy"

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "One fix for a regression introduced by our recent rework of cache
  flushing on memory hotunplug.

  Like several other arches, our VDSO clock_getres() needed a fix to
  match the semantics of posix_get_hrtimer_res().

  A fix for a boot crash on Power9 LPARs using PCI LSI interrupts.

  A commit disabling use of the trace_imc PMU (not the core PMU) on
  Power9 systems, because it can lead to checkstops, until a workaround
  is developed.

  A handful of other minor fixes.

It is just a matter of missing include directive.

Include &lt;asm/ipcbuf.h&gt; to make it self-contained, and add it to
the compile-test coverage.

Commit 01c9348c7620ec65

  powerpc: Use hardware RNG for arch_get_random_seed_* not arch_get_random_*

updated arch_get_random_[int|long]() to be NOPs, and moved the hardware
RNG backing to arch_get_random_seed_[int|long]() instead. However, it
failed to take into account that arch_get_random_int() was implemented
in terms of arch_get_random_long(), and so we ended up with a version
of the former that is essentially a NOP as well.

Fix this by calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
arch_get_random_seed_int() instead.
