commit 7e467245bf5226db34c4b12d3cbacfa2f7a15a8b upstream.

We would get wrong results in compiler recomputed old_pmd. Avoid
that by using ACCESS_ONCE

commit 969b7b208f7408712a3526856e4ae60ad13f6928 upstream.

As per ISA, for 4k base page size we compare 14..65 bits of VA specified
with the entry_VA in tlb. That implies we need to make sure we do a
tlbie with all the possible 4k va we used to access the 16MB hugepage.
With 64k base page size we compare 14..57 bits of VA. Hence we cannot
ignore the lower 24 bits of va while tlbie .We also cannot tlb
invalidate a 16MB entry with just one tlbie instruction because
we don't track which va was used to instantiate the tlb entry.

<title>powerpc/thp: Handle combo pages in invalidate</title>

commit fc0479557572375100ef16c71170b29a98e0d69a upstream.

If we changed base page size of the segment, either via sub_page_protect
or via remap_4k_pfn, we do a demote_segment which doesn't flush the hash
table entries. We do a lazy hash page table flush for all mapped pages
in the demoted segment. This happens when we handle hash page fault for
these pages.

We use _PAGE_COMBO bit along with _PAGE_HASHPTE to indicate whether a
pte is backed by 4K hash pte. If we find _PAGE_COMBO not set on the pte,
that implies that we could possibly have older 64K hash pte entries in
the hash page table and we need to invalidate those entries.

Use _PAGE_COMBO to determine the page size with which we should
invalidate the hash table entries on unmap.

commit fa1f8ae80f8bb996594167ff4750a0b0a5a5bb5d upstream.

The segment identifier and segment size will remain the same in
the loop, So we can compute it outside. We also change the
hugepage_invalidate interface so that we can use it the later patch

commit b0aa44a3dfae3d8f45bd1264349aa87f87b7774f upstream.

With hugepages, we store the hpte valid information in the pte page
whose address is stored in the second half of the PMD. Use a
write barrier to make sure clearing pmd busy bit and updating
hpte valid info are ordered properly.

commit 5efbabe09d986f25c02d19954660238fcd7f008a upstream.

Function remove_ddw() could be called in of_reconfig_notifier and
we potentially remove the dynamic DMA window property, which invokes
of_reconfig_notifier again. Eventually, it leads to the deadlock as
following backtrace shows.

The patch fixes the above issue by deferring releasing the dynamic
DMA window property while releasing the device node.

commit f1b3929c232784580e5d8ee324b6bc634e709575 upstream.

While running command "drmgr -c phb -r -s 'PHB 528'", following
backtrace jumped out because the target device node isn't marked
with OF_DETACHED by of_detach_node(), which caused by error
returned from memory hotplug related reconfig notifier when
disabling CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. The patch fixes it.

<title>powerpc/mm: Use read barrier when creating real_pte</title>

commit 85c1fafd7262e68ad821ee1808686b1392b1167d upstream.

On ppc64 we support 4K hash pte with 64K page size. That requires
us to track the hash pte slot information on a per 4k basis. We do that
by storing the slot details in the second half of pte page. The pte bit
_PAGE_COMBO is used to indicate whether the second half need to be
looked while building real_pte. We need to use read memory barrier while
doing that so that load of hidx is not reordered w.r.t _PAGE_COMBO
check. On the store side we already do a lwsync in __hash_page_4K
