Christophe LeroyandMichael Ellerman f5668260b8 powerpc/32: Fix boot failure with CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR
Commit 7c95d8893f ("powerpc: Change calling convention for
create_branch() et. al.") complexified the frame of function
do_feature_fixups(), leading to GCC setting up a stack
guard when CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR is selected.

The problem is that do_feature_fixups() is called very early
while 'current' in r2 is not set up yet and the code is still
not at the final address used at link time.

So, like other instrumentation, stack protection needs to be
deactivated for feature-fixups.c and code-patching.c

Christophe LeroyandMichael Ellerman 39352430aa powerpc: Move copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault()
When probe_kernel_read_inst() was created, there was no good place to
put it, so a file called lib/inst.c was dedicated for it.

Since then, probe_kernel_read_inst() has been renamed
copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault(). And mm/maccess.h didn't exist at that
time. Today, mm/maccess.h is related to copy_from_kernel_nofault().

Move copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault() into mm/maccess.c

Masahiro Yamada 052c805a18 kbuild: LD_VERSION redenomination
Commit ccbef1674a ("Kbuild, lto: add ld-version and ld-ifversion
macros") introduced scripts/ld-version.sh for GCC LTO.

At that time, this script handled 5 version fields because GCC LTO
needed the downstream binutils. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)

The code snippet from the submitted patch was as follows:

    # We need HJ Lu's Linux binutils because mainline binutils does not
    # support mixing assembler and LTO code in the same ld -r object.
    # XXX check if the gcc plugin ld is the expected one too
    # XXX some Fedora binutils should also support it. How to check for that?
    ifeq ($(call ld-ifversion,-ge,22710001,y),y)
        ...

However, GCC LTO was not merged into the mainline after all.
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/8/272)

So, the 4th and 5th fields were never used, and finally removed by
commit 0d61ed17dd ("ld-version: Drop the 4th and 5th version
components").

Since then, the last 4-digits returned by this script is always zeros.

Remove the meaningless last 4-digits. This makes the version format
consistent with GCC_VERSION, CLANG_VERSION, LLD_VERSION.

Dan WilliamsandBorislav Petkov ec6347bb43 x86, powerpc: Rename memcpy_mcsafe() to copy_mc_to_{user, kernel}()
In reaction to a proposal to introduce a memcpy_mcsafe_fast()
implementation Linus points out that memcpy_mcsafe() is poorly named
relative to communicating the scope of the interface. Specifically what
addresses are valid to pass as source, destination, and what faults /
exceptions are handled.

Of particular concern is that even though x86 might be able to handle
the semantics of copy_mc_to_user() with its common copy_user_generic()
implementation other archs likely need / want an explicit path for this
case:

Replace a single top-level memcpy_mcsafe() with either
copy_mc_to_user(), or copy_mc_to_kernel().

Introduce an x86 copy_mc_fragile() name as the rename for the
low-level x86 implementation formerly named memcpy_mcsafe(). It is used
as the slow / careful backend that is supplanted by a fast
copy_mc_generic() in a follow-on patch.

One side-effect of this reorganization is that separating copy_mc_64.S
to its own file means that perf no longer needs to track dependencies
for its memcpy_64.S benchmarks.

Nicholas PigginandMichael Ellerman aa65ff6b18 powerpc/64s: Implement queued spinlocks and rwlocks
These have shown significantly improved performance and fairness when
spinlock contention is moderate to high on very large systems.

With this series including subsequent patches, on a 16 socket 1536
thread POWER9, a stress test such as same-file open/close from all
CPUs gets big speedups, 11620op/s aggregate with simple spinlocks vs
384158op/s (33x faster), where the difference in throughput between
the fastest and slowest thread goes from 7x to 1.4x.

Thanks to the fast path being identical in terms of atomics and
barriers (after a subsequent optimisation patch), single threaded
performance is not changed (no measurable difference).

On smaller systems, performance and fairness seems to be generally
improved. Using dbench on tmpfs as a test (that starts to run into
kernel spinlock contention), a 2-socket OpenPOWER POWER9 system was
tested with bare metal and KVM guest configurations. Results can be
found here:

https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/305#issuecomment-663487453

Observations are:

- Queued spinlocks are equal when contention is insignificant, as
  expected and as measured with microbenchmarks.

- When there is contention, on bare metal queued spinlocks have better
  throughput and max latency at all points.

- When virtualised, queued spinlocks are slightly worse approaching
  peak throughput, but significantly better throughput and max latency
  at all points beyond peak, until queued spinlock maximum latency
  rises when clients are 2x vCPUs.

The regressions haven't been analysed very well yet, there are a lot
of things that can be tuned, particularly the paravirtualised locking,
but the numbers already look like a good net win even on relatively
small systems.

The pmem infrastructure uses memcpy_mcsafe in the pmem layer so as to
convert machine check exceptions into a return value on failure in case
a machine check exception is encountered during the memcpy. The return
value is the number of bytes remaining to be copied.

This patch largely borrows from the copyuser_power7 logic and does not add
the VMX optimizations, largely to keep the patch simple. If needed those
optimizations can be folded in.

Christophe LeroyandMichael Ellerman 26deb04342 powerpc: prepare string/mem functions for KASAN
CONFIG_KASAN implements wrappers for memcpy() memmove() and memset()
Those wrappers are doing the verification then call respectively
__memcpy() __memmove() and __memset(). The arches are therefore
expected to rename their optimised functions that way.

For files on which KASAN is inhibited, #defines are used to allow
them to directly call optimised versions of the functions without
going through the KASAN wrappers.

See commit 393f203f5f ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for
memset/memmove/memcpy functions") for details.

Other string / mem functions do not (yet) have kasan wrappers,
we therefore have to fallback to the generic versions when
KASAN is active, otherwise KASAN checks will be skipped.

This enhances the current selftest framework for validating

support for compute type instructions i.e. integer ALU-based

testing load and store instructions.

While most of the GPRs can be validated, support for SPRs is
limited to LR, CR and XER for now.

When writing the test cases, one must ensure that the Stack
Pointer (GPR1) or the Thread Pointer (GPR13) are not touched
by any means as these are vital non-volatile registers.

Christophe LeroyandMichael Ellerman 9412b23450 powerpc/lib: Implement strlen() in assembly for PPC32
The generic implementation of strlen() reads strings byte per byte.

This patch implements strlen() in assembly based on a read of entire
words, in the same spirit as what some other arches and glibc do.

On a 8xx the time spent in strlen is reduced by 3/4 for long strings.

strlen() selftest on an 8xx provides the following values:

Before the patch (ie with the generic strlen() in lib/string.c):

  len 256 : time = 1.195055
  len 016 : time = 0.083745
  len 008 : time = 0.046828
  len 004 : time = 0.028390

After the patch:

  len 256 : time = 0.272185 ==> 78% improvment
  len 016 : time = 0.040632 ==> 51% improvment
  len 008 : time = 0.033060 ==> 29% improvment
  len 004 : time = 0.029149 ==> 2% degradation

On a 832x:

Before the patch:

  len 256 : time = 0.236125
  len 016 : time = 0.018136
  len 008 : time = 0.011000
  len 004 : time = 0.007229

After the patch:

  len 256 : time = 0.094950 ==> 60% improvment
  len 016 : time = 0.013357 ==> 26% improvment
  len 008 : time = 0.010586 ==> 4% improvment

On a MPC885, throughput is almost doubled:

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "A bit of a small release, I suspect in part due to me travelling for
  KS. But my backlog of patches to review is smaller than usual, so I
  think in part folks just didn't send as much this cycle.

  Non-highlights:

   - Five fixes for the >128T address space handling, both to fix bugs
     in our implementation and to bring the semantics exactly into line
     with x86.

  Highlights:

   - Support for a new OPAL call on bare metal machines which gives us a
     true NMI (ie. is not masked by MSR[EE]=0) for debugging etc.

   - Support for Power9 DD2 in the CXL driver.

   - Improvements to machine check handling so that uncorrectable errors
     can be reported into the generic memory_failure() machinery.

   - Some fixes and improvements for VPHN, which is used under PowerVM
     to notify the Linux partition of topology changes.

   - Plumbing to enable TM (transactional memory) without suspend on
     some Power9 processors (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NO_SUSPEND).

   - Support for emulating vector loads form cache-inhibited memory, on
     some Power9 revisions.

   - Disable the fast-endian switch "syscall" by default (behind a
     CONFIG), we believe it has never had any users.

   - A major rework of the API drivers use when initiating and waiting
     for long running operations performed by OPAL firmware, and changes
     to the powernv_flash driver to use the new API.

   - Several fixes for the handling of FP/VMX/VSX while processes are
     using transactional memory.

   - Optimisations of TLB range flushes when using the radix MMU on
     Power9.

   - Improvements to the VAS facility used to access coprocessors on
     Power9, and related improvements to the way the NX crypto driver
     handles requests.

   - Implementation of PMEM_API and UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE for 64-bit.

Oliver O'HalloranandMichael Ellerman 32ce3862af powerpc/lib: Implement PMEM API
Implement the architecture specific cache maintence functions that make
up the "PMEM API". Currently the writeback and invalidate functions
are the same since the function of the DCBST (data cache block store)
instruction is typically interpreted as "writeback to the point of
coherency" rather than to memory. As a result implementing the API
requires a full cache flush rather than just a cache write back. This
will probably change in the not-too-distant future.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

Paul MackerrasandMichael Ellerman 31bfdb036f powerpc: Use instruction emulation infrastructure to handle alignment faults
This replaces almost all of the instruction emulation code in
fix_alignment() with calls to analyse_instr(), emulate_loadstore()
and emulate_dcbz().  The only emulation code left is the SPE
emulation code; analyse_instr() etc. do not handle SPE instructions
at present.

One result of this is that we can now handle alignment faults on
all the new VSX load and store instructions that were added in POWER9.
VSX loads/stores will take alignment faults for unaligned accesses
to cache-inhibited memory.

Another effect is that we no longer rely on the DAR and DSISR values
set by the processor.

With this, we now need to include the instruction emulation code
unconditionally.

Paul MackerrasandMichael Ellerman 350779a29f powerpc: Handle most loads and stores in instruction emulation code
This extends the instruction emulation infrastructure in sstep.c to
handle all the load and store instructions defined in the Power ISA
v3.0, except for the atomic memory operations, ldmx (which was never
implemented), lfdp/stfdp, and the vector element load/stores.

The instructions added are:

Integer loads and stores: lbarx, lharx, lqarx, stbcx., sthcx., stqcx.,
lq, stq.

VSX loads and stores: lxsiwzx, lxsiwax, stxsiwx, lxvx, lxvl, lxvll,
lxvdsx, lxvwsx, stxvx, stxvl, stxvll, lxsspx, lxsdx, stxsspx, stxsdx,
lxvw4x, lxsibzx, lxvh8x, lxsihzx, lxvb16x, stxvw4x, stxsibx, stxvh8x,
stxsihx, stxvb16x, lxsd, lxssp, lxv, stxsd, stxssp, stxv.

These instructions are handled both in the analyse_instr phase and in
the emulate_step phase.

The code for lxvd2ux and stxvd2ux has been taken out, as those
instructions were never implemented in any processor and have been
taken out of the architecture, and their opcodes have been reused for
other instructions in POWER9 (lxvb16x and stxvb16x).

The emulation for the VSX loads and stores uses helper functions
which don't access registers or memory directly, which can hopefully
be reused by KVM later.
