2022-09-28powerpc/64s: update cpu selection optionsNicholas Piggin1-0/+14
Update the 64s GENERIC_CPU option. POWER4 support has been dropped, so make that clear in the option name. The POWER5_CPU option is dropped because it's uncommon, and GENERIC_CPU covers it. -mtune= before power8 is dropped because the minimum gcc version supports power8, and tuning is made consistent between big and little endian. A 970 option is added for PowerPC 970 / G5 because they still have a user base, and -mtune=power8 does not generate good code for the 970. This also updates the ISA versions document to add Power4/Power4+ because I didn't realise Power4+ used 2.01.

2022-05-22powerpc: Enable the DAWR on POWER9 DD2.3 and aboveReza Arbab1-9/+17
The hardware bug in POWER9 preventing use of the DAWR was fixed in DD2.3. Set the CPU_FTR_DAWR feature bit on these newer systems to start using it again, and update the documentation accordingly. The CPU features for DD2.3 are currently determined by "DD2.2 or later" logic. In adding DD2.3 as a discrete case for the first time here, I'm carrying the quirks of DD2.2 forward to keep all behavior outside of this DAWR change the same. This leaves the assessment and potential removal of those quirks on DD2.3 for later.

2022-05-22powerpc: Book3S 64-bit outline-only KASAN supportDaniel Axtens1-1/+47
Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode. - Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.) - Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in vmalloc space. - KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot, set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and vmemmap accesses as valid. - Document KASAN in powerpc docs. Background ---------- KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right: - It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode. - Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset. - Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot, including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to determine MMU features. [ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.] - Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations off after boot. - Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with translations on or off. One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation. Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in the future. [paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17. Note that a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT translation because not all the entry points to the generic KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().] Originally-by: Balbir Singh <bsingharora@gmail.com> # ppc64 out-of-line radix version Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> [mpe: Update copyright year and comment formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/YoTE69OQwiG7z+Gu@cleo

2020-10-13dt: Remove booting-without-of.rstRob Herring2-0/+111
booting-without-of.rst is an ancient document that first outlined Flattened DeviceTree on PowerPC initially. The DT world has evolved a lot in the 15 years since and booting-without-of.rst is pretty stale. The name of the document itself is confusing if you don't understand the evolution from real 'OpenFirmware'. Most of what booting-without-of.rst contains is now in the DT specification (which evolved out of the ePAPR). The few things that weren't documented in the DT specification are now. All that remains is the boot entry details, so let's move these to arch specific documents. The exception is arm which already has the same details documented.

secure-GFNs The Ultravisor is expected to explicitly call H_SVM_PAGE_IN for all the pages of the SVM before calling H_SVM_INIT_DONE. This causes a huge delay in tranistioning the VM to SVM. The Ultravisor is only interested in the pages that contain the kernel, initrd and other important data structures. The rest contain throw-away content. However if not all pages are requested by the Ultravisor, the Hypervisor continues to consider the GFNs corresponding to the non-requested pages as normal GFNs. This can lead to data-corruption and undefined behavior. In H_SVM_INIT_DONE handler, move all the PFNs associated with the SVM's GFNs to secure-PFNs. Skip the GFNs that are already Paged-in or Shared or Paged-in followed by a Paged-out.

2020-07-23Merge branch 'scv' support into nextMichael Ellerman1-12/+30
From Nick's cover letter: Linux powerpc new system call instruction and ABI System Call Vectored (scv) ABI ============================== The scv instruction is introduced with POWER9 / ISA3, it comes with an rfscv counter-part. The benefit of these instructions is performance (trading slower SRR0/1 with faster LR/CTR registers, and entering the kernel with MSR[EE] and MSR[RI] left enabled, which can reduce MSR updates. The scv instruction has 128 levels (not enough to cover the Linux system call space). Assignment and advertisement ---------------------------- The proposal is to assign scv levels conservatively, and advertise them with HWCAP feature bits as we add support for more. Linux has not enabled FSCR[SCV] yet, so executing the scv instruction will cause the kernel to log a "SCV facility unavilable" message, and deliver a SIGILL with ILL_ILLOPC to the process. Linux has defined a HWCAP2 bit PPC_FEATURE2_SCV for SCV support, but does not set it. This change allocates the zero level ('scv 0'), advertised with PPC_FEATURE2_SCV, which will be used to provide normal Linux system calls (equivalent to 'sc'). Attempting to execute scv with other levels will cause a SIGILL to be delivered the same as before, but will not log a "SCV facility unavailable" message (because the processor facility is enabled). Calling convention ------------------ The proposal is for scv 0 to provide the standard Linux system call ABI with the following differences from sc convention[1]: - LR is to be volatile across scv calls. This is necessary because the scv instruction clobbers LR. From previous discussion, this should be possible to deal with in GCC clobbers and CFI. - cr1 and cr5-cr7 are volatile. This matches the C ABI and would allow the kernel system call exit to avoid restoring the volatile cr registers (although we probably still would anyway to avoid information leaks). - Error handling: The consensus among kernel, glibc, and musl is to move to using negative return values in r3 rather than CR0[SO]=1 to indicate error, which matches most other architectures, and is closer to a function call. Notes ----- - r0,r4-r8 are documented as volatile in the ABI, but the kernel patch as submitted currently preserves them. This is to leave room for deciding which way to go with these. Some small benefit was found by preserving them[1] but I'm not convinced it's worth deviating from the C function call ABI just for this. Release code should follow the ABI. Previous discussions: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2020-April/208691.html https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2020-April/209268.html [1] https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/powerpc/syscall64-abi.rst [2] https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2020-April/209263.html
2020-07-22powerpc/64s: system call support for scv/rfscv instructionsNicholas Piggin1-12/+30
Add support for the scv instruction on POWER9 and later CPUs. For now this implements the zeroth scv vector 'scv 0', as identical to 'sc' system calls, with the exception that LR is not preserved, nor are volatile CR registers, and error is not indicated with CR0[SO], but by returning a negative errno. rfscv is implemented to return from scv type system calls. It can not be used to return from sc system calls because those are defined to preserve LR. getpid syscall throughput on POWER9 is improved by 26% (428 to 318 cycles), largely due to reducing mtmsr and mtspr.

P9 DD2 NX workbook (Table 4-36) says DMA controller uses CC=5 internally for translation fault handling. NX reserves CC=250 for OS to notify user space when NX encounters address translation failure on the request buffer. Not an issue in earlier releases as NX does not get faults on kernel addresses.
