44e5f6be62 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add a mechanism for recording modified HPTEs
This uses a bit in our record of the guest view of the HPTE to record
when the HPTE gets modified.  We use a reserved bit for this, and ensure
that this bit is always cleared in HPTE values returned to the guest.

The recording of modified HPTEs is only done if other code indicates
its interest by setting kvm->arch.hpte_mod_interest to a non-zero value.
The reason for this is that when later commits add facilities for
userspace to read the HPT, the first pass of reading the HPT will be
quicker if there are no (or very few) HPTEs marked as modified,
rather than having most HPTEs marked as modified.

4879f24172 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix bug causing loss of page dirty state
This fixes a bug where adding a new guest HPT entry via the H_ENTER
hcall would lose the "changed" bit in the reverse map information
for the guest physical page being mapped.  The result was that the
KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG could return a zero bit for the page even though
the page had been modified by the guest.

This fixes it by only modifying the index and present bits in the
reverse map entry, thus preserving the reference and change bits.
We were also unnecessarily setting the reference bit, and this
fixes that too.

7ed661bf85 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Restructure HPT entry creation code
This restructures the code that creates HPT (hashed page table)
entries so that it can be called in situations where we don't have a
struct vcpu pointer, only a struct kvm pointer.  It also fixes a bug
where kvmppc_map_vrma() would corrupt the guest R4 value.

Most of the work of kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter is now done by a new
function, kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter, which itself calls another new
function, kvmppc_do_h_enter, which contains most of the old
kvmppc_h_enter.  The new kvmppc_do_h_enter takes explicit arguments
for the place to return the HPTE index, the Linux page tables to use,
and whether it is being called in real mode, thus removing the need
for it to have the vcpu as an argument.

Currently kvmppc_map_vrma creates the VRMA (virtual real mode area)
HPTEs by calling kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter, which is designed primarily
to handle H_ENTER hcalls from the guest that need to pin a page of
memory.  Since H_ENTER returns the index of the created HPTE in R4,
kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter updates the guest R4, corrupting the guest R4
in the case when it gets called from kvmppc_map_vrma on the first
VCPU_RUN ioctl.  With this, kvmppc_map_vrma instead calls
kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter with the address of a dummy word as the
place to store the HPTE index, thus avoiding corrupting the guest R4.

This fixes an error in the inline asm in try_lock_hpte() where we
were erroneously using a register number as an immediate operand.
The bug only affects an error path, and in fact the code will still

9f8c8c7812 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Allow DTL to be set to address 0, length 0
Commit 55b665b026 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a way for userspace
to get/set per-vCPU areas") includes a check on the length of the
dispatch trace log (DTL) to make sure the buffer is at least one entry
long.  This is appropriate when registering a buffer, but the
interface also allows for any existing buffer to be unregistered by
specifying a zero address.  In this case the length check is not
appropriate.  This makes the check conditional on the address being
non-zero.

c7b676709c KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix accounting of stolen time
Currently the code that accounts stolen time tends to overestimate the
stolen time, and will sometimes report more stolen time in a DTL
(dispatch trace log) entry than has elapsed since the last DTL entry.
This can cause guests to underflow the user or system time measured
for some tasks, leading to ridiculous CPU percentages and total runtimes
being reported by top and other utilities.

In addition, the current code was designed for the previous policy where
a vcore would only run when all the vcpus in it were runnable, and so
only counted stolen time on a per-vcore basis.  Now that a vcore can
run while some of the vcpus in it are doing other things in the kernel
(e.g. handling a page fault), we need to count the time when a vcpu task
is preempted while it is not running as part of a vcore as stolen also.

To do this, we bring back the BUSY_IN_HOST vcpu state and extend the
vcpu_load/put functions to count preemption time while the vcpu is
in that state.  Handling the transitions between the RUNNING and
BUSY_IN_HOST states requires checking and updating two variables
(accumulated time stolen and time last preempted), so we add a new
spinlock, vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock.  This protects both the per-vcpu
stolen/preempt-time variables, and the per-vcore variables while this
vcpu is running the vcore.

Finally, we now don't count time spent in userspace as stolen time.
The task could be executing in userspace on behalf of the vcpu, or
it could be preempted, or the vcpu could be genuinely stopped.  Since
we have no way of dividing up the time between these cases, we don't
count any of it as stolen.

8455d79e21 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Run virtual core whenever any vcpus in it can run
Currently the Book3S HV code implements a policy on multi-threaded
processors (i.e. POWER7) that requires all of the active vcpus in a
virtual core to be ready to run before we run the virtual core.
However, that causes problems on reset, because reset stops all vcpus
except vcpu 0, and can also reduce throughput since all four threads
in a virtual core have to wait whenever any one of them hits a
hypervisor page fault.

This relaxes the policy, allowing the virtual core to run as soon as
any vcpu in it is runnable.  With this, the KVMPPC_VCPU_STOPPED state
and the KVMPPC_VCPU_BUSY_IN_HOST state have been combined into a single
KVMPPC_VCPU_NOTREADY state, since we no longer need to distinguish
between them.

2f12f03436 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fixes for late-joining threads
If a thread in a virtual core becomes runnable while other threads
in the same virtual core are already running in the guest, it is
possible for the latecomer to join the others on the core without
first pulling them all out of the guest.  Currently this only happens
rarely, when a vcpu is first started.  This fixes some bugs and
omissions in the code in this case.

First, we need to check for VPA updates for the latecomer and make
a DTL entry for it.  Secondly, if it comes along while the master
vcpu is doing a VPA update, we don't need to do anything since the
master will pick it up in kvmppc_run_core.  To handle this correctly
we introduce a new vcore state, VCORE_STARTING.  Thirdly, there is
a race because we currently clear the hardware thread's hwthread_req
before waiting to see it get to nap.  A latecomer thread could have
its hwthread_req cleared before it gets to test it, and therefore
never increment the nap_count, leading to messages about wait_for_nap
timeouts.

913d3ff9a3 KVM: PPC: Book3s HV: Don't access runnable threads list without vcore lock
There were a few places where we were traversing the list of runnable
threads in a virtual core, i.e. vc->runnable_threads, without holding
the vcore spinlock.  This extends the places where we hold the vcore
spinlock to cover everywhere that we traverse that list.

Since we possibly need to sleep inside kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault,
this moves the call of it from kvmppc_handle_exit out to
kvmppc_vcpu_run, where we don't hold the vcore lock.

In kvmppc_vcore_blocked, we don't actually need to check whether
all vcpus are ceded and don't have any pending exceptions, since the
caller has already done that.  The caller (kvmppc_run_vcpu) wasn't
actually checking for pending exceptions, so we add that.

The change of if to while in kvmppc_run_vcpu is to make sure that we
never call kvmppc_remove_runnable() when the vcore state is RUNNING or
EXITING.

7b444c6710 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix some races in starting secondary threads
Subsequent patches implementing in-kernel XICS emulation will make it
possible for IPIs to arrive at secondary threads at arbitrary times.
This fixes some races in how we start the secondary threads, which
if not fixed could lead to occasional crashes of the host kernel.

This makes sure that (a) we have grabbed all the secondary threads,
and verified that they are no longer in the kernel, before we start
any thread, (b) that the secondary thread loads its vcpu pointer
after clearing the IPI that woke it up (so we don't miss a wakeup),
and (c) that the secondary thread clears its vcpu pointer before
incrementing the nap count.  It also removes unnecessary setting
of the vcpu and vcore pointers in the paca in kvmppc_core_vcpu_load.

512691d490 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Allow KVM guests to stop secondary threads coming online
When a Book3S HV KVM guest is running, we need the host to be in
single-thread mode, that is, all of the cores (or at least all of
the cores where the KVM guest could run) to be running only one
active hardware thread.  This is because of the hardware restriction
in POWER processors that all of the hardware threads in the core
must be in the same logical partition.  Complying with this restriction
is much easier if, from the host kernel's point of view, only one
hardware thread is active.

This adds two hooks in the SMP hotplug code to allow the KVM code to
make sure that secondary threads (i.e. hardware threads other than
thread 0) cannot come online while any KVM guest exists.  The KVM
code still has to check that any core where it runs a guest has the
secondary threads offline, but having done that check it can now be
sure that they will not come online while the guest is running.

83dac59409 cpuidle/powerpc: Fix snooze state problem in the cpuidle design on pseries.
Earlier without cpuidle framework on pseries, the native arch
idle routine comprised of both snooze and nap
states.  smt_snooze_delay variable was used to delay
the idle process entry to deeper idle state like  nap.
With the coming of cpuidle, this arch specific idle was replaced
by two different idle routines, one for supporting snooze and other
for nap. This enabled addition of more
low level idle states on pseries in the future.

On adopting the generic cpuidle framework for POWER systems,
the decision of which idle state to choose from,  given a predicted
idle time is taken by the menu governor based on
target_residency and  exit_latency of the idle states.
target_residency is the minimum time to be resident in that idle state.
Exit_latency is time taken to exit out of idle state.
Deeper the idle state, both the target residency and exit latency
would be higher.

In the current design, smt_snooze_delay is used as target_residency
for the  snooze state which is incorrect, as it is not the
minimum but the maximum duration to be in snooze state.
This would  result in the governor in taking bad decision,
as presently target_residency of nap < target_residency of snooze
inspite of nap being deeper idle state.

This patch aims to fix this problem by replacing the smt_snooze_delay loop
in snooze state, with the need_resched()  as the governor is aware of
entry and exit of various idle transitions based on which
next idle time prediction.

The governor is intelligent enough to determine the idle state the needs to
be transitioned to and maintains a whole of heuristics including
io load, previous idle states predictions etc for the same, based on
which idle state entry decision is taken.

With this fix, of setting target_residency of snooze to 0
					     nap to smt_snooze_delay
if the predicted idle time is less
than smt_snooze_delay (target_residency of nap)
value governor would pick snooze state, else nap. This adhers to the
previous native idle design.

8ea959a17f cpuidle/powerpc: Fix smt_snooze_delay functionality.
smt_snooze_delay was designed to  delay idle loop's nap entry
in the native idle code before it got  ported over to use as part of
the cpuidle framework.

A -ve value  assigned to smt_snooze_delay should result in
busy looping, in other words disabling the entry to nap state.

	- https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2010-May/082450.html

This particular functionality can be achieved currently by
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/state1/disable
but it is broken when one assigns -ve value to  the smt_snooze_delay
variable either via sysfs entry or ppc64_cpu util.

This patch aims to fix this, by disabling nap state when smt_snooze_delay
variable is set to -ve value.

d760afd4d2 memory-hotplug: suppress "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>" warning
When our x86 box calls __remove_pages(), release_mem_region() shows many
warnings.  And x86 box cannot unregister iomem_resource.

  "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>"

release_mem_region() has been changed to be called in each
PAGES_PER_SECTION by commit de7f0cba96 ("memory hotplug: release
memory regions in PAGES_PER_SECTION chunks").  Because powerpc registers
iomem_resource in each PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  But when I hot add
memory on x86 box, iomem_resource is register in each _CRS not
PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  So x86 box unregisters iomem_resource.

The patch fixes the problem.

45cac65b0f readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection
.fault now can retry.  The retry can break state machine of .fault.  In
filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased.  In the second
try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased.  And
these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.

Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once.  In the second try, skip
ra->mmap_miss decreasing.  The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other
archs is obvious, but who knows :)

5d3a551c28 mm: hugetlb: add arch hook for clearing page flags before entering pool
The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing
pages via free_pages_check.  A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS)
rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data
cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into
userspace.

This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages,
since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page
allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the
pool.

This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so
that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular
state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page
is freed into the pool.

314e51b985 mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter
A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:

 | effect                 | alternative flags
-+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
2| skip in core dump      | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
4| do not mlock           | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP

This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.  Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.

Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

50e0d10232 This has three changes for asm-generic that did not really fit into any
other branch as normal asm-generic changes do. One is a fix for a
 build warning, the other two are more interesting:
 
 * A patch from Mark Brown to allow using the common clock infrastructure
 on all architectures, so we can use the clock API in architecture
 independent device drivers.
 
 * The UAPI split patches from David Howells for the asm-generic files.
 There are other architecture specific series that are going through
 the arch maintainer tree and that depend on this one.
 
 There may be a few small merge conflicts between Mark's patch and
 the following arch header file split patches. In each case the solution
 will be to keep the new "generic-y += clkdev.h" line, even if it
 ends up being the only line in the Kbuild file.

  will be to keep the new "generic-y += clkdev.h" line, even if it ends
  up being the only line in the Kbuild file."

* tag 'asm-generic' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic:
  UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate include/asm-generic
  asm-generic: Add default clkdev.h
  asm-generic: xor: mark static functions as __maybe_unused

12ecd9570d arch/powerpc/kvm/e500_tlb.c: fix error return code
Convert a 0 error return code to a negative one, as returned elsewhere in the
function.

A new label is also added to avoid freeing things that are known to not yet
be allocated.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds the first problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
identifier ret;
expression e,e1,e2,e3,e4,x;
@@

(
if (\(ret != 0\|ret < 0\) || ...) { ... return ...; }
|
ret = 0
)
... when != ret = e1
*x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|devm_kzalloc\|ioremap\|ioremap_nocache\|devm_ioremap\|devm_ioremap_nocache\)(...);
... when != x = e2
    when != ret = e3
*if (x == NULL || ...)
{
  ... when != ret = e4
*  return ret;
}
// </smpl>

55b665b026 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a way for userspace to get/set per-vCPU areas
The PAPR paravirtualization interface lets guests register three
different types of per-vCPU buffer areas in its memory for communication
with the hypervisor.  These are called virtual processor areas (VPAs).
Currently the hypercalls to register and unregister VPAs are handled
by KVM in the kernel, and userspace has no way to know about or save
and restore these registrations across a migration.

This adds "register" codes for these three areas that userspace can
use with the KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG ioctls to see what addresses have
been registered, and to register or unregister them.  This will be
needed for guest hibernation and migration, and is also needed so
that userspace can unregister them on reset (otherwise we corrupt
guest memory after reboot by writing to the VPAs registered by the
previous kernel).

The "register" for the VPA is a 64-bit value containing the address,
since the length of the VPA is fixed.  The "registers" for the SLB
shadow buffer and dispatch trace log (DTL) are 128 bits long,
consisting of the guest physical address in the high (first) 64 bits
and the length in the low 64 bits.

This also fixes a bug where we were calling init_vpa unconditionally,
leading to an oops when unregistering the VPA.
