The /sys/firmware/secvar/config directory represents Power LPAR Platform
KeyStore (PLPKS) configuration properties such as max_object_size, signed_
update_algorithms, supported_policies, total_size, used_space, and version.
These attributes describe the PLPKS, and not the secure boot variables
(secvars).
Create /sys/firmware/plpks directory and move the PLPKS config inside this
directory. For backwards compatibility, create a soft link from the secvar
sysfs directory to this config and emit a warning stating that the older
sysfs path has been deprecated. Separate out the plpks specific
documentation from secvar.

The hypervisor provides ibm,send-hvpipe-msg and
ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg RTAS calls which can be used by the
partition to communicate through an inband hypervisor channel with
different external sources such as Hardware Management Console
(HMC). The information exchanged, whether it be messages, raw or
formatted data, etc., is only known to between applications in the
OS and the source (HMC). This patch adds papr-hvpipe character
driver and provides the standard interfaces such as open / ioctl/
read / write to user space for exchanging information with HMC
using send/recevive HVPIPE RTAS functions.
PAPR (7.3.32 Hypervisor Pipe Information Exchange) defines the
HVPIPE usage:
- The hypervisor has one HVPIPE per partition for all sources.
- OS can determine this feature’s availability by detecting the
“ibm,hypervisor-pipe-capable” property in the /rtas node of the
device tree.
- Each source is represented by the source ID which is used in
send / recv HVPIPE RTAS. (Ex: source ID is the target for the
payload in send RTAS).
- Return status of ibm,send-hvpipe-msg can be considered as
delivered the payload.
- Return status of ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg can be considered as
ACK to source.
- The hypervisor generates hvpipe message event interrupt when
the partition has the payload to receive.
Provide the interfaces to the user space with /dev/papr-hvpipe
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-hvpipe")
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_HVPIPE_IOC_CREATE_HANDLE, &srcID);
- Restrict the user space to use the same source ID and do not
expect more than one process access with the same source.
char *buf = malloc(size);
- SIZE should be 4K and the buffer contains header and the
payload.
length = write(fd, buf, size);
- OS issues ibm,send-hvpipe-msg RTAS and returns the RTAS status
to the user space.
ret = poll(fd,...)
- The HVPIPE event message IRQ wakes up for any waiting FDs.
length = read(fd, buf, size);
- OS issues ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg to receive payload from the
hypervisor.
release(fd);
- OS issues ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg if any payload is pending so
that pipe is not blocked.
The actual implementation of these calls are added in the
next patches.

The RTAS call ibm,physical-attestation is used to retrieve
information about the trusted boot state of the firmware and
hypervisor on the system, and also Trusted Platform Modules (TPM)
data if the system is TCG 2.0 compliant.
This RTAS interface expects the caller to define different command
structs such as RetrieveTPMLog, RetrievePlatformCertificat and etc,
in a work area with a maximum size of 4K bytes and the response
buffer will be returned in the same work area.
The current implementation of this RTAS function is in the user
space but allocation of the work area is restricted with the system
lockdown. So this patch implements this RTAS function in the kernel
and expose to the user space with open/ioctl/read interfaces.
PAPR (2.13+ 21.3 ibm,physical-attestation) defines RTAS function:
- Pass the command struct to obtain the response buffer for the
specific command.
- This RTAS function is sequence RTAS call and has to issue RTAS
call multiple times to get the complete response buffer (max 64K).
The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call with the sequence 1 and
the subsequent calls with the sequence number returned from the
previous calls.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a
/dev/papr-physical-attestation character device using the following
programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-physical-attestation");
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_PHY_ATTEST_IOC_HANDLE,
struct papr_phy_attest_io_block);
- The user space defines the command struct and requests the
response for any command.
- Obtain the complete response buffer and returned the buffer as
blob to the command specific FD.
size = read(fd, buf, len);
- Can retrieve the response buffer once or multiple times until the
end of BLOB buffer.
Implemented this new kernel ABI support in librtas library for
system lockdown

ibm,platform-dump RTAS call in combination with writable mapping
/dev/mem is issued to collect platform dump from the hypervisor
and may need multiple calls to get the complete dump. The current
implementation uses rtas_platform_dump() API provided by librtas
library to issue these RTAS calls. But /dev/mem access by the
user space is prohibited under system lockdown.
The solution should be to restrict access to RTAS function in user
space and provide kernel interfaces to collect dump. This patch
adds papr-platform-dump character driver and expose standard
interfaces such as open / ioctl/ read to user space in ways that
are compatible with lockdown.
PAPR (7.3.3.4.1 ibm,platform-dump) provides a method to obtain
the complete dump:
- Each dump will be identified by ID called dump tag.
- A sequence of RTAS calls have to be issued until retrieve the
complete dump. The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call with
the sequence 0 and the subsequent calls with the sequence
number returned from the previous calls.
- The hypervisor returns "dump complete" status once the complete
dump is retrieved. But expects one more RTAS call from the
partition with the NULL buffer to invalidate dump which means
the dump will be removed in the hypervisor.
- Sequence of calls are allowed with different dump IDs at the
same time but not with the same dump ID.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-platform-dump
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-platform-dump", O_RDONLY);
int fd = ioctl(devfd,PAPR_PLATFORM_DUMP_IOC_CREATE_HANDLE, &dump_id)
- Restrict user space to access with the same dump ID.
Typically we do not expect user space requests the dump
again for the same dump ID.
char *buf = malloc(size);
length = read(fd, buf, size);
- size should be minimum 1K based on PAPR and <= 4K based
on RTAS work area size. It will be restrict to RTAS work
area size. Using 4K work area based on the current
implementation in librtas library
- Each read call issue RTAS call to get the data based on
the size requirement and returns bytes returned from the
hypervisor
- If the previous call returns dump complete status, the
next read returns 0 like EOF.
ret = ioctl(PAPR_PLATFORM_DUMP_IOC_INVALIDATE, &dump_id)
- RTAS call with NULL buffer to invalidates the dump.
The read API should use the file descriptor obtained from ioctl
based on dump ID so that gets dump contents for the corresponding
dump ID. Implemented support in librtas (rtas_platform_dump()) for
this new ABI to support system lockdown.

The RTAS call ibm,get-indices is used to obtain indices and
location codes for a specified indicator or sensor token. The
current implementation uses rtas_get_indices() API provided by
librtas library which allocates RMO buffer and issue this RTAS
call in the user space. But writable mapping /dev/mem access by
the user space is prohibited under system lockdown.
To overcome the restricted access in the user space, the kernel
provide interfaces to collect indices data from the hypervisor.
This patch adds papr-indices character driver and expose standard
interfaces such as open / ioctl/ read to user space in ways that
are compatible with lockdown.
PAPR (2.13 7.3.17 ibm,get-indices RTAS Call) describes the
following steps to retrieve all indices data:
- User input parameters to the RTAS call: sensor or indicator,
and indice type
- ibm,get-indices is sequence RTAS call which means has to issue
multiple times to get the entire list of indicators or sensors
of a particular type. The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call
with the sequence 1 and the subsequent calls with the sequence
number returned from the previous calls.
- The OS may not interleave calls to ibm,get-indices for different
indicator or sensor types. Means other RTAS calls with different
type should not be issued while the previous type sequence is in
progress. So collect the entire list of indices and copied to
buffer BLOB during ioctl() and expose this buffer to the user
space with the file descriptor.
- The hypervisor fills the work area with a specific format but
does not return the number of bytes written to the buffer.
Instead of parsing the data for each call to determine the data
length, copy the work area size (RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE) to
the buffer. Return work-area size of data to the user space for
each read() call.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-indices
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-indices", O_RDONLY);
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_INDICES_IOC_GET,
struct papr_indices_io_block)
- Collect all indices data for the specified token to the buffer
char *buf = malloc(RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE);
length = read(fd, buf, RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE)
- RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE of data is returned to the user
space.
- The user space retrieves the indices and their location codes
from the buffer
- Should issue multiple read() calls until reaches the end of
BLOB buffer.
The read() should use the file descriptor obtained from ioctl to
get the data that is exposed to file descriptor. Implemented
support in librtas (rtas_get_indices()) for this new ABI for
system lockdown.

The RTAS call can be normal where retrieves the data form the
hypervisor once or sequence based RTAS call which has to
issue multiple times until the complete data is obtained. For
some of these sequence RTAS calls, the OS should not interleave
calls with different input until the sequence is completed.
The data is collected for each call and copy to the buffer
for the entire sequence during ioctl() handle and then expose
this buffer to the user space with read() handle.
One such sequence RTAS call is ibm,get-vpd and its support is
already included in the current code. To add the similar support
for other sequence based calls, move the common functions in to
separate file and update papr_rtas_sequence struct with the
following callbacks so that RTAS call specific code will be
defined and executed to complete the sequence.
struct papr_rtas_sequence {
int error;
void params;
void (*begin) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *);
void (*end) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *);
const char * (*work) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *, size_t *);
};
params: Input parameters used to pass for RTAS call.
Begin: RTAS call specific function to initialize data
including work area allocation.
End: RTAS call specific function to free up resources
(free work area) after the sequence is completed.
Work: The actual RTAS call specific function which collects
the data from the hypervisor.

PowerVM LPARs may retrieve Vital Product Data (VPD) for system
components using the ibm,get-vpd RTAS function.
We can expose this to user space with a /dev/papr-vpd character
device, where the programming model is:
struct papr_location_code plc = { .str = "", }; /* obtain all VPD */
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-vpd", O_RDONLY);
int vpdfd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE, &plc);
size_t size = lseek(vpdfd, 0, SEEK_END);
char *buf = malloc(size);
pread(devfd, buf, size, 0);
When a file descriptor is obtained from ioctl(PAPR_VPD_CREATE_HANDLE),
the file contains the result of a complete ibm,get-vpd sequence. The
file contents are immutable from the POV of user space. To get a new
view of the VPD, the client must create a new handle.
This design choice insulates user space from most of the complexities
that ibm,get-vpd brings:
* ibm,get-vpd must be called more than once to obtain complete
results.
* Only one ibm,get-vpd call sequence should be in progress at a time;
interleaved sequences will disrupt each other. Callers must have a
protocol for serializing their use of the function.
* A call sequence in progress may receive a "VPD changed, try again"
status, requiring the client to abandon the sequence and start
over.
The memory required for the VPD buffers seems acceptable, around 20KB
for all VPD on one of my systems. And the value of the
/rtas/ibm,vpd-size DT property (the estimated maximum size of VPD) is
consistently 300KB across various systems I've checked.
I've implemented support for this new ABI in the rtas_get_vpd()
function in librtas, which the vpdupdate command currently uses to
populate its VPD database. I've verified that an unmodified vpdupdate
binary generates an identical database when using a librtas.so that
prefers the new ABI.
Along with the papr-vpd.h header exposed to user space, this
introduces a common papr-miscdev.h uapi header to share a base ioctl
ID with similar drivers to come.

Introduce a set of APIs for retrieving and updating PAPR system
parameters. This encapsulates the toil of temporary RTAS work area
management, RTAS function call retries, and translation of RTAS call
statuses to conventional error values.
There are several places in the kernel that already retrieve system
parameters by calling the RTAS ibm,get-system-parameter function
directly. These will be converted to papr_sysparm_get() in changes to
follow.
As for updating system parameters, current practice is to use
sys_rtas() from user space; there are no in-kernel users of the RTAS
ibm,set-system-parameter function. However this will become deprecated
in time because it is not compatible with lockdown.
The papr_sysparm_* APIs will form the common basis for in-kernel
and user space access to system parameters. The code to expose the
set/get capabilities to user space will follow.

Various pseries-specific RTAS functions take a temporary "work area"
parameter - a buffer in memory accessible to RTAS. Typically such
functions are passed the statically allocated rtas_data_buf buffer as
the argument. This buffer is protected by a global spinlock. So users
of rtas_data_buf cannot perform sleeping operations while accessing
the buffer.
Most RTAS functions that have a work area parameter can return a
status (-2/990x) that indicates that the caller should retry. Before
retrying, the caller may need to reschedule or sleep (see
rtas_busy_delay() for details). This combination of factors
leads to uncomfortable constructions like this:
do {
spin_lock(&rtas_data_buf_lock);
rc = rtas_call(token, __pa(rtas_data_buf, ...);
if (rc == 0) {
/* parse or copy out rtas_data_buf contents */
}
spin_unlock(&rtas_data_buf_lock);
} while (rtas_busy_delay(rc));
Another unfortunately common way of handling this is for callers to
blithely ignore the possibility of a -2/990x status and hope for the
best.
If users were allowed to perform blocking operations while owning a
work area, the programming model would become less tedious and
error-prone. Users could schedule away, sleep, or perform other
blocking operations without having to release and re-acquire
resources.
We could continue to use a single work area buffer, and convert
rtas_data_buf_lock to a mutex. But that would impose an unnecessarily
coarse serialization on all users. As awkward as the current design
is, it prevents longer running operations that need to repeatedly use
rtas_data_buf from blocking the progress of others.
There are more considerations. One is that while 4KB is fine for all
current in-kernel uses, some RTAS calls can take much smaller buffers,
and some (VPD, platform dumps) would likely benefit from larger
ones. Another is that at least one RTAS function (ibm,get-vpd)
has *two* work area parameters. And finally, we should expect the
number of work area users in the kernel to increase over time as we
introduce lockdown-compatible ABIs to replace less safe use cases
based on sys_rtas/librtas.
So a special-purpose allocator for RTAS work area buffers seems worth
trying.
Properties:
* The backing memory for the allocator is reserved early in boot in
order to satisfy RTAS addressing requirements, and then managed with
genalloc.
* Allocations can block, but they never fail (mempool-like).
* Prioritizes first-come, first-serve fairness over throughput.
* Early boot allocations before the allocator has been initialized are
served via an internal static buffer.
Intended to replace rtas_data_buf. New code that needs RTAS work area
buffers should prefer this API.

The pseries platform can support dynamic secure boot (i.e. secure boot
using user-defined keys) using variables contained with the PowerVM LPAR
Platform KeyStore (PLPKS). Using the powerpc secvar API, expose the
relevant variables for pseries dynamic secure boot through the existing
secvar filesystem layout.
The relevant variables for dynamic secure boot are signed in the
keystore, and can only be modified using the H_PKS_SIGNED_UPDATE hcall.
Object labels in the keystore are encoded using ucs2 format. With our
fixed variable names we don't have to care about encoding outside of the
necessary byte padding.
When a user writes to a variable, the first 8 bytes of data must contain
the signed update flags as defined by the hypervisor.
When a user reads a variable, the first 4 bytes of data contain the
policies defined for the object.
Limitations exist due to the underlying implementation of sysfs binary
attributes, as is the case for the OPAL secvar implementation -
partial writes are unsupported and writes cannot be larger than PAGE_SIZE.
(Even when using bin_attributes, which can be larger than a single page,
sysfs only gives us one page's worth of write buffer at a time, and the
hypervisor does not expose an interface for partial writes.)

Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under
the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode.
- Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the
shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.)
- Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in
vmalloc space.
- KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't
instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot,
set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and
vmemmap accesses as valid.
- Document KASAN in powerpc docs.
Background
----------
KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right:
- It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to
catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode.
- Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset.
- Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot,
including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to
determine MMU features.
[ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective
address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical
memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on
powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the
same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective
address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real
address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more
details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular
the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this
KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.]
- Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations
off after boot.
- Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with
translations on or off.
One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way
boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we
can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after
booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation.
Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with
some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be
used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in
the future.
[paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17. Note that a kernel with
CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT
translation because not all the entry points to the generic
KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().]

Adds a syscall interface to represent the energy and frequency related
PAPR attributes on the system using the new H_CALL
"H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO".
H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL was previously responsible for exporting this
information in the lparcfg, however the H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL
will be deprecated P10 onwards.
The H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO H_CALL is of the following call format:
hcall(
uint64 H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO, // Get energy scale info
uint64 flags, // Per the flag request
uint64 firstAttributeId,// The attribute id
uint64 bufferAddress, // Guest physical address of the output buffer
uint64 bufferSize // The size in bytes of the output buffer
);
As specified in PAPR+ v2.11, section 14.14.3.
This H_CALL can query either all the attributes at once with
firstAttributeId = 0, flags = 0 as well as query only one attribute
at a time with firstAttributeId = id, flags = 1.
The output buffer consists of the following
1. number of attributes - 8 bytes
2. array offset to the data location - 8 bytes
3. version info - 1 byte
4. A data array of size num attributes, which contains the following:
a. attribute ID - 8 bytes
b. attribute value in number - 8 bytes
c. attribute name in string - 64 bytes
d. attribute value in string - 64 bytes
The new H_CALL exports information in direct string value format, hence
a new interface has been introduced in
/sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info to export this information to
userspace so that the firmware can add new values without the need for
the kernel to be changed.
The H_CALL returns the name, numeric value and string value (if exists)
The format of exposing the sysfs information is as follows:
/sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info/
|-- <id>/
|-- desc
|-- value
|-- value_desc (if exists)
|-- <id>/
|-- desc
|-- value
|-- value_desc (if exists)
...
The energy information that is exported is useful for userspace tools
such as powerpc-utils. Currently these tools infer the
"power_mode_data" value in the lparcfg, which in turn is obtained from
the to be deprecated H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL.
On future platforms, such userspace utilities will have to look at the
data returned from the new H_CALL being populated in this new sysfs
interface and report this information directly without the need of
interpretation.

Remove the pseries scanlog driver.
This code supports functions from Power4-era servers that are not present
on targets currently supported by arch/powerpc. System manuals from this
time have this description:
Scan Dump data is a set of chip data that the service processor gathers
after a system malfunction. It consists of chip scan rings, chip trace
arrays, and Scan COM (SCOM) registers. This data is stored in the
scan-log partition of the system’s Nonvolatile Random Access
Memory (NVRAM).
PowerVM partition firmware development doesn't recognize the associated
function call or property, and they don't see any references to them in
their codebase. It seems to have been specific to non-virtualized pseries.

This patch adds VAS window allocatioa/close with the corresponding
hcalls. Also changes to integrate with the existing user space VAS
API and provide register/unregister functions to NX pseries driver.
The driver register function is used to create the user space
interface (/dev/crypto/nx-gzip) and unregister to remove this entry.
The user space process opens this device node and makes an ioctl
to allocate VAS window. The close interface is used to deallocate
window.

Adds a driver that implements support for enabling and accessing PAPR
SCM regions. Unfortunately due to how the PAPR interface works we can't
use the existing of_pmem driver (yet) because:
a) The guest is required to use the H_SCM_BIND_MEM h-call to add
add the SCM region to it's physical address space, and
b) There is currently no mechanism for relating a bare of_pmem region
to the backing DIMM (or not-a-DIMM for our case).
Both of these are easily handled by rolling the functionality into a
seperate driver so here we are...

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 2965faa5e03d ("kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core
code") introduced CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE so that CONFIG_KEXEC means whether
the kexec_load system call should be compiled-in and CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE
means whether the kexec_file_load system call should be compiled-in.
These options can be set independently from each other.
Since until now powerpc only supported kexec_load, CONFIG_KEXEC and
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE were synonyms. That is not the case anymore, so we
need to make a distinction. Almost all places where CONFIG_KEXEC was
being used should be using CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE instead, since
kexec_file_load also needs that code compiled in.

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
# original location (starting with 0xd...) to somewhere in the base
# kernel percpu data space (starting with 0xc...). We need a full
# 64bit relocation for this to work, hence -mcmodel=large.

Original EEH implementation depends on struct pci_dn heavily. However,
EEH shouldn't depend on that actually because EEH needn't share much
information with other PCI components. That's to say, EEH should have
worked independently.
The patch introduces struct eeh_dev so that EEH core components needn't
be working based on struct pci_dn in future. Also, struct pci_dn, struct
eeh_dev instances are created in dynamic fasion and the binding with EEH
device, OF node, PCI device is implemented as well.
The EEH devices are created after PHBs are detected and initialized, but
PCI emunation hasn't started yet. Apart from that, PHB might be created
dynamically through DLPAR component and the EEH devices should be creatd
as well. Another case might be OF node is created dynamically by DR
(Dynamic Reconfiguration), which has been defined by PAPR. For those OF
nodes created by DR, EEH devices should be also created accordingly. The
binding between EEH device and OF node is done while the EEH device is
initially created.
The binding between EEH device and PCI device should be done after PCI
emunation is done. Besides, PCI hotplug also needs the binding so that
the EEH devices could be traced from the newly coming PCI buses or PCI
devices.

EEH has been implemented on RTAS-compliant pSeries platform.
That's to say, the EEH operations will be implemented through RTAS
calls eventually. The situation limited feasible extension on EEH.
In order to support EEH on multiple platforms like pseries and powernv
simutaneously. We have to split the platform dependent EEH options
up out of current implementation.
The patch addresses supporting EEH on multiple platforms. The pseries
platform dependent EEH operations will be abstracted by struct eeh_ops.
EEH core components will be built based on the registered EEH operations.
With the mechanism, what the individual platform needs to do is implement
platform dependent EEH operations.
For now, the pseries platform is covered under the mechanism. That means
we have to think about other platforms to support EEH, like powernv.
Besides, we only have framework for the mechanism and we have to implement
it for pseries platform later.

This patch adds support for handling IO Event interrupts which come

The interrupts come through ibm,io-events device tree node are generated
by the firmware to report IO events. The firmware uses the same interrupt
to report multiple types of events for multiple devices. Each device may
have its own event handler. This patch implements a plateform interrupt
handler that is triggered by the IO event interrupts come through
ibm,io-events device tree node, pull in the IO events from RTAS and call
device event handlers registered in the notifier list.
Device event handlers are expected to use atomic_notifier_chain_register()
and atomic_notifier_chain_unregister() to register/unregister their
event handler in pseries_ioei_notifier_list list with IO event interrupt.
Device event handlers are responsible to identify if the event belongs
to the device event handler. The device event handle should return NOTIFY_OK
after the event is handled if the event belongs to the device event handler,
or NOTIFY_DONE otherwise.

This is a significant rework of the XICS driver, too significant to
conveniently break it up into a series of smaller patches to be honest.
The driver is moved to a more generic location to allow new platforms
to use it, and is broken up into separate ICP and ICS "backends". For
now we have the native and "hypervisor" ICP backends and one common
RTAS ICS backend.
The driver supports one ICP backend instanciation, and many ICS ones,

Create sysfs interface to export data from H_BEST_ENERGY hcall

platforms for energy management optimizations.
sys/device/system/cpu/pseries_(de)activate_hint_list and
sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint will provide
hints for activation and deactivation of cpus respectively.
These hints are abstract number given by the hypervisor based
on the extended knowledge the hypervisor has regarding the
system topology and resource mappings.
The activate and the deactivate sysfs entry is for the two
distinct operations that we could do for energy savings. When
we have more capacity than required, we could deactivate few
core to save energy. The choice of the core to deactivate
will be based on /sys/devices/system/cpu/deactivate_hint_list.
The comma separated list of cpus (cores) will be the preferred
choice. If we have to activate some of the deactivated cores,
then /sys/devices/system/cpu/activate_hint_list will be used.
The per-cpu file
/sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint further
provide more fine grain information by exporting the value of
the hint itself.
