37737a2afd powerpc/32: move LOAD_MSR_KERNEL() into head_32.h and use it
As preparation for using head_32.h for head_40x.S, move
LOAD_MSR_KERNEL() there and use it to load r10 with MSR_KERNEL value.

In the mean time, this patch modifies it so that it takes into account
the size of the passed value to determine if 'li' can be used or if
'lis/ori' is needed instead of using the size of MSR_KERNEL. This is
done by using gas macro.

31ed2b13c4 powerpc/32s: Implement Kernel Userspace Execution Prevention.
To implement Kernel Userspace Execution Prevention, this patch
sets NX bit on all user segments on kernel entry and clears NX bit
on all user segments on kernel exit.

Note that powerpc 601 doesn't have the NX bit, so KUEP will not
work on it. A warning is displayed at startup.

e2fb9f5444 powerpc/32: Prepare for Kernel Userspace Access Protection
This patch adds ASM macros for saving, restoring and checking
the KUAP state, and modifies setup_32 to call them on exceptions
from kernel.

The macros are defined as empty by default for when CONFIG_PPC_KUAP
is not selected and/or for platforms which don't handle (yet) KUAP.

f7354ccac8 powerpc/32: Remove CURRENT_THREAD_INFO and rename TI_CPU
Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2
so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it.

This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the
reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address
of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys().

At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info,
TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch.

It also allows to get rid of a couple of
'#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY()
and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

a7916a1de5 powerpc: regain entire stack space
thread_info is not anymore in the stack, so the entire stack
can now be used.

There is also no risk anymore of corrupting task_cpu(p) with a
stack overflow so the patch removes the test.

When doing this, an explicit test for NULL stack pointer is
needed in validate_sp() as it is not anymore implicitely covered
by the sizeof(thread_info) gap.

In the meantime, with the previous patch all pointers to the stacks
are not anymore pointers to thread_info so this patch changes them
to void*

ed1cd6deb0 powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK
This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which
moves the thread_info into task_struct.

Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages:
  - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack
    overflows.
  - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked,
    making a number of attacks more difficult.

This has the following consequences:
  - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct.
  - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when
    CONFIG_SMP is active.
  - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field.

This patch:
  - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes.
  - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current.
  - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
  - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without
    including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without
    including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication
    between ASM constants and C constants.
  - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer
    argument.

d7cceda96b powerpc: change CONFIG_6xx to CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_32
Today we have:

config PPC_BOOK3S_32
	bool "512x/52xx/6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx/83xx/86xx"
	[depends on PPC32 within a choice]

config PPC_BOOK3S
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC_BOOK3S_32 || PPC_BOOK3S_64

config 6xx
	def_bool y
	depends on PPC32 && PPC_BOOK3S

6xx is therefore redundant with PPC_BOOK3S_32.

In order to make the code clearer, lets use preferably PPC_BOOK3S_32.
This will allow to remove CONFIG_6xx in a later patch.

cd99ddbea2 powerpc/8xx: Only perform perf counting when perf is in use.
In TLB miss handlers, updating the perf counter is only useful
when performing a perf analysis. As it has a noticeable overhead,
let's only do it when needed.

In order to do so, the exit of the miss handlers will be patched
when starting/stopping 'perf': the first register restore
instruction of each exit point will be replaced by a jump to
the counting code.

Once this is done, CONFIG_PPC_8xx_PERF_EVENT becomes useless as
this feature doesn't add any overhead.

0eb0d2e77d powerpc/32: Avoid risk of unrecoverable TLBmiss inside entry_32.S
By default, the 8xx pins an ITLB on the first 8M of memory in order
to avoid any ITLB miss on kernel code.
However, with some debug functions like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and
DEBUG_RODATA, pinning TLBs is contradictory.

In order to avoid any ITLB miss in a critical section without pinning
TLBs, we have to ensure that there is no page boundary crossed between
the setup of a new value in SRR0/SRR1 and the associated RFI.

The functions modifying srr0/srr1 are all located in setup_32.S.
They are spread over almost 4kbytes.

The patch forces a 12 bits (4kbytes) alignment for those
functions. This garanties that the functions remain in a
single 4k page.

75b8247276 powerpc/8xx: Perf events on PPC 8xx
This patch has been reworked since RFC version. In the RFC, this patch
was preceded by a patch clearing MSR RI for all PPC32 at all time at
exception prologs. Now MSR RI clearing is done only when this 8xx perf
events functionality is compiled in, it is therefore limited to 8xx
and merged inside this patch.
Other main changes have been to take into account detailed review from
Peter Zijlstra. The instructions counter has been reworked to behave
as a free running counter like the three other counters.

The 8xx has no PMU, however some events can be emulated by other means.

This patch implements the following events (as reported by 'perf list'):
  cpu-cycles OR cycles				[Hardware event]
  instructions					[Hardware event]
  dTLB-load-misses				[Hardware cache event]
  iTLB-load-misses				[Hardware cache event]

'cycles' event is implemented using the timebase clock. Timebase clock
corresponds to CPU clock divided by 16, so number of cycles is
approximatly 16 times the number of TB ticks

On the 8xx, TLB misses are handled by software. It is therefore
easy to count all TLB misses each time the TLB miss exception is
called.

'instructions' is calculated by using instruction watchpoint counter.
This patch sets counter A to count instructions at address greater
than 0, hence we count all instructions executed while MSR RI bit is
set. The counter is set to the maximum which is 0xffff. Every 65535
instructions, debug instruction breakpoint exception fires. The
exception handler increments a counter in memory which then
represent the upper part of the instruction counter. We therefore
end up with a 48 bits counter. In order to avoid unnecessary overhead
while no perf event is active, this counter is started when the first
event referring to this counter is added, and the counter is stopped
when the last event referring to it is deleted. In order to properly
support breakpoint exceptions, MSR RI bit has to be unset in exception
epilogs in order to avoid breakpoint exceptions during critical
sections during changes to SRR0 and SRR1 would be problematic.

All counters are handled as free running counters.

f2574030b0 powerpc: Revert the initial stack protector support
Unfortunately the stack protector support we merged recently only works
on some toolchains. If the toolchain is built without glibc support
everything works fine, but if glibc is built then it leads to a panic
at boot.

The solution is not rc5 material, so revert the support for now. This

902e06eb86 powerpc/32: Change the stack protector canary value per task
Partially copied from commit df0698be14 ("ARM: stack protector:
change the canary value per task")

A new random value for the canary is stored in the task struct whenever
a new task is forked.  This is meant to allow for different canary values
per task.  On powerpc, GCC expects the canary value to be found in a global
variable called __stack_chk_guard.  So this variable has to be updated
with the value stored in the task struct whenever a task switch occurs.

Because the variable GCC expects is global, this cannot work on SMP
unfortunately.  So, on SMP, the same initial canary value is kept
throughout, making this feature a bit less effective although it is still
useful.

d38374142b powerpc/kernel: Change the do_syscall_trace_enter() API
The API for calling do_syscall_trace_enter() is currently sensible
enough, it just returns the (modified) syscall number.

However once we enable seccomp filter it will get more complicated. When
seccomp filter runs, the seccomp kernel code (via SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO), or
a ptracer (via SECCOMP_RET_TRACE), may reject the syscall and *may* or may
*not* set a return value in r3.

That means the assembler that calls do_syscall_trace_enter() can not
blindly return ENOSYS, it needs to only return ENOSYS if a return value
has not already been set.

There is no way to implement that logic with the current API. So change
the do_syscall_trace_enter() API to make it deal with the return code
juggling, and the assembler can then just return whatever return code it
is given.

c3525940cc powerpc/kernel: Switch to using MAX_ERRNO
Currently on powerpc we have our own #define for the highest (negative)
errno value, called _LAST_ERRNO. This is defined to be 516, for reasons
which are not clear.

The generic code, and x86, use MAX_ERRNO, which is defined to be 4095.

In particular seccomp uses MAX_ERRNO to restrict the value that a
seccomp filter can return.

Currently with the mismatch between _LAST_ERRNO and MAX_ERRNO, a seccomp
tracer wanting to return 600, expecting it to be seen as an error, would
instead find on powerpc that userspace sees a successful syscall with a
return value of 600.

To avoid this inconsistency, switch powerpc to use MAX_ERRNO.

We are somewhat confident that generic syscalls that can return a
non-error value above negative MAX_ERRNO have already been updated to
use force_successful_syscall_return().

I have also checked all the powerpc specific syscalls, and believe that
none of them expect to return a non-error value between -MAX_ERRNO and
-516. So this change should be safe ...

We have code to do syscall tracing which is disabled at compile time by
default. It's not been touched since the dawn of time (ie. v2.6.12).

There are now better ways to do syscall tracing, ie. using the
raw_syscall, or syscall tracepoints.

For the specific case of tracing syscalls at boot on a system that
doesn't get to userspace, you can boot with:

  trace_event=syscalls tp_printk=on

Which will trace syscalls from boot, and echo all output to the console.

f7b3367774 powerpc/32bit:Store temporary result in r0 instead of r8
Commit a9c4e541ea
"powerpc/kprobe: Complete kprobe and migrate exception frame"
introduced a regression:

While returning from exception handling in case of PREEMPT enabled,
_TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit is checked in TI_FLAGS (thread_info flag) of current
task. Only if this bit is set, it should continue with the process of
calling preempt_schedule_irq() to schedule highest priority task if
available.

Current code assumes that r8 contains TI_FLAGS and check this for
_TIF_NEED_RESCHED, but as r8 is modified in the code which executes before
this check, r8 no longer contains the expected TI_FLAGS information.

As a result check for comparison with _TIF_NEED_RESCHED was failing even if
NEED_RESCHED bit is set in the current thread_info flag. Due to this,
preempt_schedule_irq() and in turn scheduler was not getting called even if
highest priority task is ready for execution.

So, store temporary results in r0 instead of r8 to prevent r8 from getting
modified as subsequent code is dependent on its value.

08f1ec8a59 powerpc: Fix page fault with lockdep regression
commit a546498f3b
introduced a regression on 32-bit when irq tracing
is enabled by exposing an old bug in our irq tracing
code for exception entry.

The code would save and restore some GPRs around the
calls to the C lockdep code, however, it tries to be
too smart for its own good and restores some of the
GPRs from the exception frame (as saved there on
exception entry).

However, for page faults, we do replace those GPRs with
arguments to do_page_fault before we call transfer_to_handler
and so restoring from the exception frame is plain wrong in
this case.

This was fine as long as we didn't touch the interrupt state
when taking page fault, but when I started doing it, it would
trigger the lockdep calls and the bug.

This fixes it by cleaning up that code a bit. It did create
a small stack frame for the sake of backtraces, so let's
make it a bit bigger and use it to save and restore the
stuff we care about.

ee43eb788b powerpc: Use names rather than numbers for SPRGs (v2)
The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in
low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu
global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer.

We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers
as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some
of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc..
and the current choice isn't always the best.

This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the
usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement

5d38902c48 powerpc: Add irqtrace support for 32-bit powerpc
Based on initial work from: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org>

Add the low level irq tracing hooks for 32-bit powerpc needed
to enable full lockdep functionality.

The approach taken to deal with the code in entry_32.S is that
we don't trace all the transitions of MSR:EE when we just turn
it off to peek at TI_FLAGS without races. Only when we are
calling into C code or returning from exceptions with a state
that have changed from what lockdep thinks.

There's a little bugger though: If we take an exception that
keeps interrupts enabled (such as an alignment exception) while
interrupts are enabled, we will call trace_hardirqs_on() on the
way back spurriously. Not a big deal, but to get rid of it would
require remembering in pt_regs that the exception was one of the
type that kept interrupts enabled which we don't know at this
stage. (Well, we could test all cases for regs->trap but that
sucks too much).

c7b0d17366 powerpc: ftrace, do nothing in mcount call for dyn ftrace
Impact: quicken mcount calls that are not replaced by dyn ftrace

Dynamic ftrace no longer does on the fly recording of mcount locations.
The mcount locations are now found at compile time. The mcount
function no longer needs to store registers and call a stub function.
It can now just simply return.

Since there are some functions that do not get converted to a nop
(.init sections and other code that may disappear), this patch should
help speed up that code.

Also, the stub for mcount on PowerPC 32 can not be a simple branch
link register like it is on PowerPC 64. According to the ABI specification:

"The _mcount routine is required to restore the link register from
 the stack so that the profiling code can be inserted transparently,
 whether or not the profiled function saves the link register itself."

This means that we must restore the link register that was used
to make the call to mcount.  The minimal mcount function for PPC32
ends up being:

 mcount:
        mflr    r0
        mtctr   r0
        lwz     r0, 4(r1)
        mtlr    r0
        bctr

Where we move the link register used to call mcount into the
ctr register, and then restore the link register from the stack.
Then we use the ctr register to jump back to the mcount caller.
The r0 register is free for us to use.

a560643e21 [POWERPC] Defer processing of interrupts when the CPU wakes from sleep mode
This provides a way to defer processing of an interrupt that wakes the
processor out of sleep mode.  On 32-bit platforms that use an
interrupt to wake the processor, we have to have interrupts enabled in
hardware at the point where we go to sleep, otherwise the processor
will never wake up.  However, because interrupts are logically
disabled at this point, we don't want to process the interrupt
straight away.

This is handled by setting the _TLF_SLEEPING flag.  When we get an
interrupt and _TLF_SLEEPING is set, we firstly clear the MSR_EE
(external interrupt enable) bit in the saved MSR value, and secondly
we then return to the address in the link register, like we do for
_TLF_NAPPING, but without actually handling the interrupt.

Note that this is handled somewhat differently on powerbooks, so this
new code will only be used on non-Apple machines.

can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation
is already held to a different address B.  To avoid this problem, the dummy
stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address.

This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate

b98ac05d5e [POWERPC] 4xx: Deal with 44x virtually tagged icache
The 44x family has an interesting "feature" which is a virtually
tagged instruction cache (yuck !). So far, we haven't dealt with
it properly, which means we've been mostly lucky or people didn't
report the problems, unless people have been running custom patches
in their distro...

This is an attempt at fixing it properly. I chose to do it by
setting a global flag whenever we change a PTE that was previously
marked executable, and flush the entire instruction cache upon
return to user space when that happens.

This is a bit heavy handed, but it's hard to do more fine grained
flushes as the icbi instruction, on those processor, for some very
strange reasons (since the cache is virtually mapped) still requires
a valid TLB entry for reading in the target address space, which
isn't something I want to deal with.

f39224a8c1 powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap mode
We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into
nap mode.  When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus
started hanging when we put them into nap mode.  Changing to the
recommended sequence fixes that.

The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that
keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode.  Clearly we need some way
to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt,
decrementer, performance monitor) occurs.  Here we use a bit in
the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception
entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return
to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop.
We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can
alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence.

The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing
there too.

This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on
32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to
get trashed.

1bd79336a4 powerpc: Fix various syscall/signal/swapcontext bugs
A careful reading of the recent changes to the system call entry/exit
paths revealed several problems, plus some things that could be
simplified and improved:

* 32-bit wasn't testing the _TIF_NOERROR bit in the syscall fast exit
  path, so it was only doing anything with it once it saw some other
  bit being set.  In other words, the noerror behaviour would apply to
  the next system call where we had to reschedule or deliver a signal,
  which is not necessarily the current system call.

* 32-bit wasn't doing the call to ptrace_notify in the syscall exit
  path when the _TIF_SINGLESTEP bit was set.

* _TIF_RESTOREALL was in both _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK and
  _TIF_PERSYSCALL_MASK, which is odd since _TIF_RESTOREALL is only set
  by system calls.  I took it out of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK.

* On 64-bit, _TIF_RESTOREALL wasn't causing the non-volatile registers
  to be restored (unless perhaps a signal was delivered or the syscall
  was traced or single-stepped).  Thus the non-volatile registers
  weren't restored on exit from a signal handler.  We probably got
  away with it mostly because signal handlers written in C wouldn't
  alter the non-volatile registers.

* On 32-bit I simplified the code and made it more like 64-bit by
  making the syscall exit path jump to ret_from_except to handle
  preemption and signal delivery.

* 32-bit was calling do_signal unnecessarily when _TIF_RESTOREALL was
  set - but I think because of that 32-bit was actually restoring the
  non-volatile registers on exit from a signal handler.

* I changed the order of enabling interrupts and saving the
  non-volatile registers before calling do_syscall_trace_leave; now we
  enable interrupts first.

comments in ppc_asm.h.

In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using

only once in the fast path, and re-enable interrupts if necessary in the
ptrace case.

The patch abolishes the 'syscall_noerror' member of struct thread_info
and replaces it with a TIF_NOERROR bit in the flags, which is handled in
the slow path. This shortens the syscall entry code, which no longer
needs to clear syscall_noerror.

The patch adds a TIF_SAVE_NVGPRS flag which causes the syscall exit slow
path to save the non-volatile GPRs into a signal frame. This removes the
need for the assembly wrappers around sys_sigsuspend(),
sys_rt_sigsuspend(), et al which existed solely to save those registers
in advance. It also means I don't have to add new wrappers for ppoll()
and pselect(), which is what I was supposed to be doing when I got
distracted into this...

Finally, it unifies the ppc64 and ppc32 methods of handling syscall exit
directly into a signal handler (as required by sigsuspend et al) by
introducing a TIF_RESTOREALL flag which causes _all_ the registers to be
reloaded from the pt_regs by taking the ret_from_exception path, instead
of the normal syscall exit path which stomps on the callee-saved GPRs.

It appears to pass an LTP test run on ppc64, and passes basic testing on
ppc32 too. Brief tests of ptrace functionality with strace and gdb also
appear OK. I wouldn't send it to Linus for 2.6.15 just yet though :)

033ef338b6 powerpc: Merge rtas.c into arch/powerpc/kernel
This splits arch/ppc64/kernel/rtas.c into arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c,
which contains generic RTAS functions useful on any CHRP platform,
and arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/rtas-fw.[ch], which contain
some pSeries-specific firmware flashing bits.  The parts of rtas.c
that are to do with pSeries-specific error logging are protected
by a new CONFIG_RTAS_ERROR_LOGGING symbol.  The inclusion of rtas.o
is controlled by the CONFIG_PPC_RTAS symbol, and the relevant
platforms select that.

6cb7bfebb1 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge thread_info.h
Merge ppc32 and ppc64 versions of thread_info.h.  They were pretty
similar already, the chief changes are:

	- Instead of inline asm to implement current_thread_info(),
which needs to be different for ppc32 and ppc64, we use C with an
asm("r1") register variable.  gcc turns it into the same asm as we
used to have for both platforms.
	- We replace ppc32's 'local_flags' with the ppc64
'syscall_noerror' field.  The noerror flag was in fact the only thing
in the local_flags field anyway, so the ppc64 approach is simpler, and
means we only need a load-immediate/store instead of load/mask/store
when clearing the flag.
	- In readiness for 64k pages, when THREAD_SIZE will be less
than a page, ppc64 used kmalloc() rather than get_free_pages() to
allocate the kernel stack.  With this patch we do the same for ppc32,
since there's no strong reason not to.
	- For ppc64, we no longer export THREAD_SHIFT and THREAD_SIZE
via asm-offsets, thread_info.h can now be safely included in asm, as
on ppc32.

Built and booted on G4 Powerbook (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and
Power5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).

9994a33865 powerpc: Introduce entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S
The system call table has been consolidated into systbl.S.  We have
separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions of entry.S and misc.S since the
code is mostly sufficiently different to be not worth merging.
There are some common bits that will be extracted in future.
