If we do not provide the PVR for POWER8NVL, a guest on this system
currently ends up in PowerISA 2.06 compatibility mode on KVM, since QEMU
does not provide a generic PowerISA 2.07 mode yet. So some new
instructions from POWER8 (like "mtvsrd") get disabled for the guest,
resulting in crashes when using code compiled explicitly for
POWER8 (e.g. with the "-mcpu=power8" option of GCC).

This should not have any impact on hash, because hash does tlb invalidate with every pte update and we don't implement flush_tlb_* functions for hash. With radix we should make an explicit call to flush tlb outside pte update. Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
When we converted the asm routines to C functions, we missed updating
HPTE_R_R based on _PAGE_ACCESSED. ASM code used to copy over the lower
bits from pte via.
andi. r3,r30,0x1fe /* Get basic set of flags */
We also update the code such that we won't update the Change bit ('C'
bit) always. This was added by commit c5cf0e30bf3d8 ("powerpc: Fix
buglet with MMU hash management").
With hash64, we need to make sure that hardware doesn't do a pte update
directly. This is because we do end up with entries in TLB with no hash
page table entry. This happens because when we find a hash bucket full,
we "evict" a more/less random entry from it. When we do that we don't
invalidate the TLB (hpte_remove) because we assume the old translation
is still technically "valid". For more info look at commit
0608d692463("powerpc/mm: Always invalidate tlb on hpte invalidate and
update").
Thus it's critical that valid hash PTEs always have reference bit set
and writeable ones have change bit set. We do this by hashing a
non-dirty linux PTE as read-only and always setting _PAGE_ACCESSED (and
thus R) when hashing anything else in. Any attempt by Linux at clearing
those bits also removes the corresponding hash entry.
Commit 5cf0e30bf3d8 did that for 'C' bit by enabling 'C' bit always.
We don't really need to do that because we never map a RW pte entry
without setting 'C' bit. On READ fault on a RW pte entry, we still map
it READ only, hence a store update in the page will still cause a hash
pte fault.
This patch reverts the part of commit c5cf0e30bf3d8 ("[PATCH] powerpc:
Fix buglet with MMU hash management") and retain the updatepp part.
- If we hit the updatepp path on native, the old code without that
commit, would fail to set C bcause native_hpte_updatepp()
was implemented to filter the same bits as H_PROTECT and not let C
through thus we would "upgrade" a RO HPTE to RW without setting C
thus causing the bug. So the real fix in that commit was the change
to native_hpte_updatepp

We are already using the privileged versions of MMCR0, MMCR1
and MMCRA in the kernel, so for MMCR2, we should better use
the privileged versions, too, to be consistent.

The SIAR and SDAR registers are available twice, one time as SPRs 780 / 781 (unprivileged, but read-only), and one time as the SPRs 796 / 797 (privileged, but read and write). The Linux kernel code currently uses the unprivileged SPRs - while this is OK for reading, writing to that register of course does not work. Since the KVM code tries to write to this register, too (see the mtspr in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S), the contents of this register sometimes get lost for the guests, e.g. during migration of a VM. To fix this issue, simply switch to the privileged SPR numbers instead.

The RTAS calls "ibm,configure-pe" and "ibm,configure-bridge" perform the same actions, however the former can skip configuration if unnecessary. The existing code treats them as different tokens even though only one will ever be called. Refactor this by making a single token that is assigned during init.

In the "ibm,configure-pe" and "ibm,configure-bridge" RTAS calls, the spec states that values of 9900-9905 can be returned, indicating that software should delay for 10^x (where x is the last digit, i.e. 990x) milliseconds and attempt the call again. Currently, the kernel doesn't know about this, and respecting it fixes some PCI failures when the hypervisor is busy. The delay is capped at 0.2 seconds.

Pull misc DAX updates from Vishal Verma:
"DAX error handling for 4.7
- Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on any
device. This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these
errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver.
- The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that
are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1.
Other misc changes:
- When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition is
page aligned. This is a requirement for DAX, and previously, we
allowed such unaligned mounts to succeed, but subsequent
reads/writes would fail.
- Misc/cleanup fixes from Jan that remove unused code from DAX
related to zeroing, writeback, and some size checks"
