c2c292f450 scsi: cxlflash: Handle AFU sync failures
AFU sync operations are not currently evaluated for failure. This is
acceptable for paths where there is not a dependency on the AFU being
consistent with the host. Examples include link reset events and LUN
cleanup operations. On paths where there is a dependency, such as a LUN
open, a sync failure should be acted upon.

In the event of AFU sync failures, either log or cleanup as appropriate for
operations that are dependent on a successful sync completion.

Update documentation to reflect behavior in the event of an AFU sync
failure.

7246f60068 powerpc updates for 4.12 part 1.
Highlights include:
 
  - Larger virtual address space on 64-bit server CPUs. By default we use a 128TB
    virtual address space, but a process can request access to the full 512TB by
    passing a hint to mmap().
 
  - Support for the new Power9 "XIVE" interrupt controller.
 
  - TLB flushing optimisations for the radix MMU on Power9.
 
  - Support for CAPI cards on Power9, using the "Coherent Accelerator Interface
    Architecture 2.0".
 
  - The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and runtime.
 
  - Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as support for
    KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.
 
  - Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts, correctly treating
    them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and using a new hypervisor call
    to trigger them, all of which should aid debugging and robustness.
 
 Many fixes and other minor enhancements.

8fa4f1770d scsi: cxlflash: Remove port configuration assumptions
At present, the cxlflash driver only supports hardware with two FC ports. The
code was initially designed with this assumption and is dependent on having
two FC ports - adding more ports will break logic within the driver.

To mitigate this issue, remove the existing port assumptions and transition
the code to support more than two ports. As a side effect, clarify the
interpretation of the DK_CXLFLASH_ALL_PORTS_ACTIVE flag.

- Registers
- Radix mode
- Process element entry
- Dedicated-Shared Process Programming Model
- Translation Fault Handling
- CAPP
- Memory Context ID
    If a valid mm_struct is found the memory context id is used for each
    transaction associated with the process handle. The PSL uses the
    context ID to find the corresponding process element.

 for which a driver is added, there's some cleanup work of the ibm vscsi target
 and updates to libfc, plus a whole host of minor fixes and updates and finally
 the removal of several ISA drivers which seem not to have been used for years.

Add some documentation for the 64-bit syscall ABI, which doesn't seem
to be documented elsewhere.

This attempts to document existing practice. The only small discrepancy
is glibc clobbers not quite matching the kernel (e.g., xer, some
vsyscalls trash cr1 whereas glibc only clobbers cr0). These will be
resolved after this document is merged.

78a3e8889b powerpc: signals: Discard transaction state from signal frames
Userspace can begin and suspend a transaction within the signal
handler which means they might enter sys_rt_sigreturn() with the
processor in suspended state.

sys_rt_sigreturn() wants to restore process context (which may have
been in a transaction before signal delivery). To do this it must
restore TM SPRS. To achieve this, any transaction initiated within the
signal frame must be discarded in order to be able to restore TM SPRs
as TM SPRs can only be manipulated non-transactionally..

It isn't clear exactly if there is really a use case for userspace
returning with a suspended transaction, however, doing so doesn't (on
its own) constitute a bad frame. As such, this patch simply discards
the transactional state of the context calling the sigreturn and
continues.

cd34af40a0 scsi: cxlflash: Transition to application close model
Caching the adapter file descriptor and performing a close on behalf of
an application is a poor design. This is due to the fact that once a
file descriptor in installed, it is free to be altered without the
knowledge of the cxlflash driver. This can lead to inconsistencies
between the application and kernel. Furthermore, the nature of the
former design is more exploitable and thus should be abandoned.

To support applications performing a close on the adapter file that is
associated with a context, a new flag is introduced to the user API to
indicate to applications that they are responsible for the close
following the cleanup (detach) of a context. The documentation is also
updated to reflect this change in behavior.

594ff7d067 cxl: Support to flash a new image on the adapter from a guest
The new flash.c file contains the logic to flash a new image on the
adapter, through a hcall. It is an iterative process, with chunks of
data of 1M at a time. There are also 2 phases: write and verify. The
flash operation itself is driven from a user-land tool.
Once flashing is successful, an rtas call is made to update the device
tree with the new properties values for the adapter and the AFU(s)

Add a new char device for the adapter, so that the flash tool can
access the card, even if there is no valid AFU on it.

b4b56f9eca powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactions
This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active
transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without
performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU
accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a
new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this
behaviour to userspace.

Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an
active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active
transaction fails.

This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was
documented as unsupported.  It doesn't reduce functionality as
syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that
the transaction be explicitly suspended.  It also provides a
consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code
substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not
support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390).

Performance measurements using
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of
a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

68fc378ce3 Revert "powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactions"
This reverts commit feba40362b.

Although the principle of this change is good, the implementation has a
few issues.

Firstly we can sometimes fail to abort a syscall because r12 may have
been clobbered by C code if we went down the virtual CPU accounting
path, or if syscall tracing was enabled.

Secondly we have decided that it is safer to abort the syscall even
earlier in the syscall entry path, so that we avoid the syscall tracing
path when we are transactional.

So that we have time to thoroughly test those changes we have decided to
revert this for this merge window and will merge the fixed version in
the next window.

NB. Rather than reverting the selftest we just drop tm-syscall from
TEST_PROGS so that it's not run by default.

feba40362b powerpc/tm: Abort syscalls in active transactions
This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active
transactions when a syscall is made and return immediately without
performing the syscall.

Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an
active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active
transaction fails.

This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was
documented as unsupported. It doesn't reduce functionality because
syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend. It also provides a
consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code
substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not
support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390).

Performance measurements using
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c
indicate the cost of a system call increases by about 0.5%.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "Here is the bulk of the powerpc changes for this merge window.  It got
  a bit delayed in part because I wasn't paying attention, and in part
  because I discovered I had a core PCI change without a PCI maintainer
  ack in it.  Bjorn eventually agreed it was ok to merge it though we'll
  probably improve it later and I didn't want to rebase to add his ack.

  There is going to be a bit more next week, essentially fixes that I
  still want to sort through and test.

  The biggest item this time is the support to build the ppc64 LE kernel
  with our new v2 ABI.  We previously supported v2 userspace but the
  kernel itself was a tougher nut to crack.  This is now sorted mostly
  thanks to Anton and Rusty.

  We also have a fairly big series from Cedric that add support for
  64-bit LE zImage boot wrapper.  This was made harder by the fact that
  traditionally our zImage wrapper was always 32-bit, but our new LE
  toolchains don't really support 32-bit anymore (it's somewhat there
  but not really "supported") so we didn't want to rely on it.  This
  meant more churn that just endian fixes.

  This brings some more LE bits as well, such as the ability to run in
  LE mode without a hypervisor (ie. under OPAL firmware) by doing the
  right OPAL call to reinitialize the CPU to take HV interrupts in the
  right mode and the usual pile of endian fixes.

  There's another series from Gavin adding EEH improvements (one day we
  *will* have a release with less than 20 EEH patches, I promise!).

  Another highlight is the support for the "Split core" functionality on
  P8 by Michael.  This allows a P8 core to be split into "sub cores" of
  4 threads which allows the subcores to run different guests under KVM
  (the HW still doesn't support a partition per thread).

  And then the usual misc bits and fixes ..."

Add support for EBB (Event Based Branches) on 64-bit book3s. See the
included documentation for more details.

EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a
specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be
used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the
inner loop.

Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a
proliferation of PMU callbacks.

2b3f8e87cf powerpc/tm: Fix userspace stack corruption on signal delivery for active transactions
When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with
the stack.  It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin.
The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that
returns before a tend.  In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed
transactional memory state.  If we write over this non transactionally or in
suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter
and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be
valid anymore.

To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use
the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated
state.  This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be
written below the stack required for the rollback.  The transaction is aborted
becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the
signal will be rolled back anyway.

For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the
normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

Tested with 64 and 32 bit signals

6ce6c629fd powerpc/tm: Abort on emulation and alignment faults
If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that
touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional
suspend context.  We need to abort these transactions and send them back to
userspace for the hardware to rollback.

We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the
kernel will operate in the same suspend context.

This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction
emulations (only string instructions for now).  If the user process is in an
active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to
userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the
failure.  This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the
persistent error to the user.

Crappy test case here http://neuling.org/devel/junkcode/aligntm.c

517b731477 powerpc/ptrace: Add DAWR debug feature info for userspace
This adds new debug feature information so that the DAWR can be
identified by userspace tools like GDB.

Unfortunately the DAWR doesn't sit nicely into the current description
that ptrace provides to userspace via struct ppc_debug_info.  It doesn't
allow for specifying that only some ranges are possible or even the end
alignment constraints (DAWR only allows 512 byte wide ranges which can't
cross a 512 byte boundary).

After talking to Edjunior Machado (GDB ppc developer), it was decided
this was the best approach.  Just mark it as debug feature DAWR and
tools like GDB can internally decide the constraints.

6c7a2856ad powerpc/hw-breakpoint: Use generic hw-breakpoint interfaces for new PPC ptrace flags
PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO, PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG and PPC_PTRACE_DELHWDEBUG are
PowerPC specific ptrace flags that use the watchpoint register. While they are
targeted primarily towards BookE users, user-space applications such as GDB
have started using them for BookS too. This patch enables the use of generic
hardware breakpoint interfaces for these new flags.

Apart from the usual benefits of using generic hw-breakpoint interfaces, these
changes allow debuggers (such as GDB) to use a common set of ptrace flags for
their watchpoint needs and allow more precise breakpoint specification (length
of the variable can be specified).
