[ Upstream commit 7c5ed82b80 ]
On large config LPARs (having 192 and more cores), Linux fails to boot
due to insufficient memory in the first memblock. It is due to the
memory reservation for the crash kernel which starts at 128MB offset of
the first memblock. This memory reservation for the crash kernel doesn't
leave enough space in the first memblock to accommodate other essential
system resources.
The crash kernel start address was set to 128MB offset by default to
ensure that the crash kernel get some memory below the RMA region which
is used to be of size 256MB. But given that the RMA region size can be
512MB or more, setting the crash kernel offset to mid of RMA size will
leave enough space for the kernel to allocate memory for other system
resources.
Since the above crash kernel offset change is only applicable to the LPAR
platform, the LPAR feature detection is pushed before the crash kernel
reservation. The rest of LPAR specific initialization will still
be done during pseries_probe_fw_features as usual.
This patch is dependent on changes to paca allocation for boot CPU. It
expect boot CPU to discover 1T segment support which is introduced by
the patch posted here:

[ Upstream commit 06e629c25d ]
In panic path, fadump is triggered via a panic notifier function.
Before calling panic notifier functions, smp_send_stop() gets called,
which stops all CPUs except the panic'ing CPU. Commit 8389b37dff
("powerpc: stop_this_cpu: remove the cpu from the online map.") and
again commit bab26238bb ("powerpc: Offline CPU in stop_this_cpu()")
started marking CPUs as offline while stopping them. So, if a kernel
has either of the above commits, vmcore captured with fadump via panic
path would not process register data for all CPUs except the panic'ing
CPU. Sample output of crash-utility with such vmcore:

While this has been the case since fadump was introduced, the issue
was not identified for two probable reasons:
- In general, the bulk of the vmcores analyzed were from crash
due to exception.
- The above did change since commit 8341f2f222 ("sysrq: Use
panic() to force a crash") started using panic() instead of
deferencing NULL pointer to force a kernel crash. But then
commit de6e5d3841 ("powerpc: smp_send_stop do not offline
stopped CPUs") stopped marking CPUs as offline till kernel
commit bab26238bb ("powerpc: Offline CPU in stop_this_cpu()")
reverted that change.
To ensure post processing register data of all other CPUs happens
as intended, let panic() function take the crash friendly path (read
crash_smp_send_stop()) with the help of crash_kexec_post_notifiers
option. Also, as register data for all CPUs is captured by f/w, skip
IPI callbacks here for fadump, to avoid any complications in finding
the right backtraces.

[ Upstream commit 219572d2fc ]
Kdump can be triggered after panic_notifers since commit f06e5153f4
("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option for kdump
after panic_notifers") introduced crash_kexec_post_notifiers option.
But using this option would mean smp_send_stop(), that marks all other
CPUs as offline, gets called before kdump is triggered. As a result,
kdump routines fail to save other CPUs' registers. To fix this, kdump
friendly crash_smp_send_stop() function was introduced with kernel
commit 0ee59413c9 ("x86/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump
friendly version in panic path"). Override this kdump friendly weak
function to handle crash_kexec_post_notifiers option appropriately
on powerpc.

[ Upstream commit 5dad4ba68a ]
It is possible for all CPUs to miss the pending cpumask becoming clear,
and then nobody resetting it, which will cause the lockup detector to
stop working. It will eventually expire, but watchdog_smp_panic will
avoid doing anything if the pending mask is clear and it will never be
reset.
Order the cpumask clear vs the subsequent test to close this race.
Add an extra check for an empty pending mask when the watchdog fires and
finds its bit still clear, to try to catch any other possible races or
bugs here and keep the watchdog working. The extra test in
arch_touch_nmi_watchdog is required to prevent the new warning from
firing off.

[ Upstream commit 91668ab7db ]
PowerISA v3.1 introduces new control bit (PMCCEXT) for restricting
access to group B PMU registers in problem state when
MMCR0 PMCC=0b00. In problem state and when MMCR0 PMCC=0b00,
setting the Monitor Mode Control Register bit 54 (MMCR0 PMCCEXT),
will restrict read permission on Group B Performance Monitor
Registers (SIER, SIAR, SDAR and MMCR1). When this bit is set to zero,
group B registers will be readable. In other platforms (like power9),
the older behaviour is retained where group B PMU SPRs are readable.
Patch adds support for MMCR0 PMCCEXT bit in power10 by enabling
this bit during boot and during the PMU event enable/disable callback
functions.

[ Upstream commit 344fbab991 ]
The only thing keeping the cpu_setup() and cpu_restore() functions
used in the cputable entries for Power7, Power8, Power9 and Power10 in
assembly was cpu_restore() being called before there was a stack in
generic_secondary_smp_init(). Commit ("powerpc/64: Set up a kernel
stack for secondaries before cpu_restore()") means that it is now
possible to use C.
Rewrite the functions in C so they are a little bit easier to read.
This is not changing their functionality.

commit 1e35eba405 upstream.
As spotted and explained in commit c12ab8dbc4 ("powerpc/8xx: Fix
Oops with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX without DEBUG_RODATA_TEST"), the selection
of STRICT_KERNEL_RWX without selecting DEBUG_RODATA_TEST has spotted
the lack of the DIRTY bit in the pinned kernel data TLBs.
This problem should have been detected a lot earlier if things had
been working as expected. But due to an incredible level of chance or
mishap, this went undetected because of a set of bugs: In fact the
DTLBs were not pinned, because instead of setting the reserve bit
in MD_CTR, it was set in MI_CTR that is the register for ITLBs.
But then, another huge bug was there: the physical address was
reset to 0 at the boundary between RO and RW areas, leading to the
same physical space being mapped at both 0xc0000000 and 0xc8000000.
This had by miracle no consequence until now because the entry was
not really pinned so it was overwritten soon enough to go undetected.
Of course, now that we really pin the DTLBs, it must be fixed as well.

[ Upstream commit 9583922563 ]
Commit a21d1becaa ("powerpc: Reintroduce is_kvm_guest() as a fast-path
check") added is_kvm_guest() and changed kvm_para_available() to use it.
is_kvm_guest() checks a static key, kvm_guest, and that static key is
set in check_kvm_guest().
The problem is check_kvm_guest() is only called on pseries, and even
then only in some configurations. That means is_kvm_guest() always
returns false on all non-pseries and some pseries depending on
configuration. That's a bug.
For PR KVM guests this is noticable because they no longer do live
patching of themselves, which can be detected by the omission of a
message in dmesg such as:
KVM: Live patching for a fast VM worked
To fix it make check_kvm_guest() an initcall, to ensure it's always
called at boot. It needs to be core so that it runs before
kvm_guest_init() which is postcore. To be an initcall it needs to return
int, where 0 means success, so update that.
We still call it manually in pSeries_smp_probe(), because that runs
before init calls are run.

commit 496c5fe25c upstream.
In isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() we store various registers into the stack
red zone, which is allowed.
However inside the IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ_NORET macro we save r2 again,
to 0(r1), which corrupts the stack back chain.
We used to do the same in isa206_idle_insn_mayloss() itself, but we
fixed that in 73287caa92 ("powerpc64/idle: Fix SP offsets when saving
GPRs"), however we missed that the macro also corrupts the back chain.
Corrupting the back chain is bad for debuggability but doesn't
necessarily cause a bug.
However we recently changed the stack handling in some KVM code, and it
now relies on the stack back chain being valid when it returns. The
corruption causes that code to return with r1 pointing somewhere in
kernel data, at some point LR is restored from the stack and we branch
to NULL or somewhere else invalid.
Only affects Power8 hosts running KVM guests, with dynamic_mt_modes
enabled (which it is by default).
The fixes tag below points to the commit that changed the KVM stack
handling, exposing this bug. The actual corruption of the back chain has
always existed since 948cf67c47 ("powerpc: Add NAP mode support on
Power7 in HV mode").

commit 73287caa92 upstream.
The idle entry/exit code saves/restores GPRs in the stack "red zone"
(Protected Zone according to PowerPC64 ELF ABI v2). However, the offset
used for the first GPR is incorrect and overwrites the back chain - the
Protected Zone actually starts below the current SP. In practice this is
probably not an issue, but it's still incorrect so fix it.
Also expand the comments to explain why using the stack "red zone"
instead of creating a new stackframe is appropriate here.
