When it was introduced, zone_reclaim_mode made sense as NUMA distances
punished and workloads were generally partitioned to fit into a NUMA
node. NUMA machines are now common but few of the workloads are
NUMA-aware and it's routine to see major performance degradation due to
zone_reclaim_mode being enabled but relatively few can identify the
problem.
Those that require zone_reclaim_mode are likely to be able to detect
when it needs to be enabled and tune appropriately so lets have a
sensible default for the bulk of users.
This patch (of 2):
zone_reclaim_mode causes processes to prefer reclaiming memory from
local node instead of spilling over to other nodes. This made sense
initially when NUMA machines were almost exclusively HPC and the
workload was partitioned into nodes. The NUMA penalties were
sufficiently high to justify reclaiming the memory. On current machines
and workloads it is often the case that zone_reclaim_mode destroys
performance but not all users know how to detect this. Favour the
common case and disable it by default. Users that are sophisticated
enough to know they need zone_reclaim_mode will detect it.

_PAGE_NUMA is currently an alias of _PROT_PROTNONE to trap NUMA hinting
faults on x86. Care is taken such that _PAGE_NUMA is used only in
situations where the VMA flags distinguish between NUMA hinting faults
and prot_none faults. This decision was x86-specific and conceptually
it is difficult requiring special casing to distinguish between PROTNONE
and NUMA ptes based on context.
Fundamentally, we only need the _PAGE_NUMA bit to tell the difference
between an entry that is really unmapped and a page that is protected
for NUMA hinting faults as if the PTE is not present then a fault will
be trapped.
Swap PTEs on x86-64 use the bits after _PAGE_GLOBAL for the offset.
This patch shrinks the maximum possible swap size and uses the bit to
uniquely distinguish between NUMA hinting ptes and swap ptes.

This adds workarounds for two hardware bugs in the POWER8 performance
monitor unit (PMU), both related to interrupt generation. The effect
of these bugs is that PMU interrupts can get lost, leading to tools
such as perf reporting fewer counts and samples than they should.
The first bug relates to the PMAO (perf. mon. alert occurred) bit in
MMCR0; setting it should cause an interrupt, but doesn't. The other
bug relates to the PMAE (perf. mon. alert enable) bit in MMCR0.
Setting PMAE when a counter is negative and counter negative
conditions are enabled to cause alerts should cause an alert, but
doesn't.
The workaround for the first bug is to create conditions where a
counter will overflow, whenever we are about to restore a MMCR0
value that has PMAO set (and PMAO_SYNC clear). The workaround for
the second bug is to freeze all counters using MMCR2 before reading
MMCR0.

Since we can't fix those old kernels, try to detect whether the guest is sane

On recent IBM Power CPUs, while the hashed page table is looked up using
the page size from the segmentation hardware (i.e. the SLB), it is
possible to have the HPT entry indicate a larger page size. Thus for
example it is possible to put a 16MB page in a 64kB segment, but since
the hash lookup is done using a 64kB page size, it may be necessary to
put multiple entries in the HPT for a single 16MB page. This
capability is called mixed page-size segment (MPSS). With MPSS,
there are two relevant page sizes: the base page size, which is the
size used in searching the HPT, and the actual page size, which is the
size indicated in the HPT entry. [ Note that the actual page size is
always >= base page size ].
We use "ibm,segment-page-sizes" device tree node to advertise
the MPSS support to PAPR guest. The penc encoding indicates whether
we support a specific combination of base page size and actual
page size in the same segment. We also use the penc value in the
LP encoding of HPTE entry.
This patch exposes MPSS support to KVM guest by advertising the
feature via "ibm,segment-page-sizes". It also adds the necessary changes
to decode the base page size and the actual page size correctly from the
HPTE entry.

The shared (magic) page is a data structure that contains often used
supervisor privileged SPRs accessible via memory to the user to reduce
the number of exits we have to take to read/write them.
When we actually share this structure with the guest we have to maintain
it in guest endianness, because some of the patch tricks only work with
native endian load/store operations.
Since we only share the structure with either host or guest in little
endian on book3s_64 pr mode, we don't have to worry about booke or book3s hv.
For booke, the shared struct stays big endian. For book3s_64 hv we maintain
the struct in host native endian, since it never gets shared with the guest.
For book3s_64 pr we introduce a variable that tells us which endianness the
shared struct is in and route every access to it through helper inline
functions that evaluate this variable.

Since commit "efcac65 powerpc: Per process DSCR + some fixes (try#4)"
it is no longer possible to set the DSCR on a per-CPU basis.
The old behaviour was to minipulate the DSCR SPR directly but this is no
longer sufficient: the value is quickly overwritten by context switching.
This patch stores the per-CPU DSCR value in a kernel variable rather than
directly in the SPR and it is used whenever a process has not set the DSCR
itself. The sysfs interface (/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/dscr) is unchanged.
Writes to the old global default (/sys/devices/system/cpu/dscr_default)
now set all of the per-CPU values and reads return the last written value.
The new per-CPU default is added to the paca_struct and is used everywhere
outside of sysfs.c instead of the old global default.

Upcoming POWER8 chips support a concept called split core. This is where the
core can be split into subcores that although not full cores, are able to
appear as full cores to a guest.
The splitting & unsplitting procedure is mildly complicated, and explained at
length in the comments within the patch.
One notable detail is that when splitting or unsplitting we need to pull
offline cpus out of their offline state to do work as part of the procedure.
The interface for changing the split mode is via a sysfs file, eg:
$ echo 2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/subcores_per_core
Currently supported values are '1', '2' and '4'. And indicate respectively that
the core should be unsplit, split in half, and split in quarters. These modes
correspond to threads_per_subcore of 8, 4 and 2.
We do not allow changing the split mode while KVM VMs are active. This is to
prevent the value changing while userspace is configuring the VM, and also to
prevent the mode being changed in such a way that existing guests are unable to
be run.

On POWER8 we have a new concept of a subcore. This is what happens when
you take a regular core and split it. A subcore is a grouping of two or
four SMT threads, as well as a handfull of SPRs which allows the subcore
to appear as if it were a core from the point of view of a guest.
Unlike threads_per_core which is fixed at boot, threads_per_subcore can
change while the system is running. Most code will not want to use

As part of the support for split core on POWER8, we want to be able to
block splitting of the core while KVM VMs are active.
The logic to do that would be exactly the same as the code we currently
have for inhibiting onlining of secondaries.
Instead of adding an identical mechanism to block split core, rework the
secondary inhibit code to be a "HV KVM is active" check. We can then use
that in both the cpu hotplug code and the upcoming split core code.

The assembler maintainer says:
I changed the ABI, something that had to be done but unfortunately
happens to break the booke kernel code. When building up a 64-bit
value with lis, ori, shl, oris, ori or similar sequences, you now
should use @high and @higha in place of @h and @ha. @h and @ha
(and their associated relocs R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI and R_PPC64_ADDR16_HA)
now report overflow if the value is out of 32-bit signed range.
ie. @h and @ha assume you're building a 32-bit value. This is needed
to report out-of-range -mcmodel=medium toc pointer offsets in @toc@h
and @toc@ha expressions, and for consistency I did the same for all
other @h and @ha relocs.
Replacing @h with @high in one strategic location fixes the relocation
errors. This has to be done conditionally since the assembler either
supports @h or @high but not both.

The POWER kernel uses a personality flag to determine whether it should
be setting up function descriptors or not (per the updated ABI). This
flag wasn't being cleared on a new process but instead was being
inherited. The visible effect was that an ELFv2 binary could not execve
to an ELFv1 binary.

The call path in this case is:
flush_thread
--> set_debug_reg_defaults
--> set_breakpoint
--> __get_cpu_var
Since preemption is enabled in the cleanup of flush thread, and
there is no need to disable it, introduce the distinction between
set_breakpoint and __set_breakpoint, leaving only the flush_thread
instance as the current user of set_breakpoint.

This request includes a few bug fixes that really shouldn't wait for the next
release.
It fixes KVM on 32bit PowerPC when built as module. It also fixes the PV KVM
acceleration when NX gets honored by the host. Furthermore we fix transactional
memory support and numa support on HV KVM.

Merge tag 'signed-for-3.15' of git://github.com/agraf/linux-2.6 into kvm-master
Patch queue for 3.15 - 2014-05-12
This request includes a few bug fixes that really shouldn't wait for the next
release.
It fixes KVM on 32bit PowerPC when built as module. It also fixes the PV KVM
acceleration when NX gets honored by the host. Furthermore we fix transactional
memory support and numa support on HV KVM.
This series adds support for building the powerpc 64-bit
LE kernel using the new ABI v2. We already supported
running ABI v2 userspace programs but this adds support
for building the kernel itself using the new ABI.
Now powerpc is the only user of struct boot_param_header and FDT defines,
so they can be moved into the powerpc architecture code.

Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian.
This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores.
Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops
(which are already endian safe).
The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit
memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is.
Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because
we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through
rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for
all other 64bit platforms.

Our PV guest patching code assembles chunks of instructions on the fly when it
encounters more complicated instructions to hijack. These instructions need
to live in a section that we don't mark as non-executable, as otherwise we
fault when jumping there.
Right now we put it into the .bss section where it automatically gets marked
as non-executable. Add a check to the NX setting function to ensure that we
leave these particular pages executable.

If we do a treclaim and we are not in TM suspend mode, it results in a TM bad
thing (ie. a 0x700 program check). Similarly if we do a trechkpt and we have
an active transaction or TEXASR Failure Summary (FS) is not set, we also take a
TM bad thing.
This should never happen, but if it does (ie. a kernel bug), the cause is
almost impossible to debug as the GPR state is mostly userspace and hence we
don't get a call chain.
This adds some checks in these cases case a BUG_ON() (in asm) in case we ever
hit these cases. It moves the register saving around to preserve r1 till later
also.

Currently, the code in setup-common.c for powerpc assumes that all
clock rates are same in a smp system. This value is cached in the
variable named ppc_proc_freq and is the value that is reported in
/proc/cpuinfo.
However on the PowerNV platform, the clock rate is same only across
the threads of the same core. Hence the value that is reported in
/proc/cpuinfo is incorrect on PowerNV platforms. We need a better way
to query and report the correct value of the processor clock in
/proc/cpuinfo.
The patch achieves this by creating a machdep_call named
get_proc_freq() which is expected to returns the frequency in Hz. The
code in show_cpuinfo() can invoke this method to display the correct
clock rate on platforms that have implemented this method. On the
other powerpc platforms it can use the value cached in ppc_proc_freq.

The patch intends to support fundamental reset on PLX downstream
ports. If the PCI device matches any one of the internal table,
which includes PLX vendor ID, bridge device ID, register offset
for fundamental reset and bit, fundamental reset will be done
accordingly. Otherwise, it will fail back to hot reset.
Additional flag (EEH_DEV_FRESET) is introduced to record the last
reset type on the PCI bridge.

The problem was initially reported by Wendy who tried pass through
IPR adapter, which was connected to PHB root port directly, to KVM
based guest. When doing that, pci_reset_bridge_secondary_bus() was
called by VFIO driver and linkDown was detected by the root port.
That caused all PEs to be frozen.
The patch fixes the issue by routing the reset for the secondary bus
of root port to underly firmware. For that, one more weak function
pci_reset_secondary_bus() is introduced so that the individual platforms
can override that and do specific reset for bridge's secondary bus.

Basically, we have 3 types of resets to fulfil PE reset: fundamental,
hot and PHB reset. For the later 2 cases, we need PCI bus reset hold
and settlement delay as specified by PCI spec. PowerNV and pSeries
platforms are running on top of different firmware and some of the
delays have been covered by underly firmware (PowerNV).
The patch makes the delays unified to be done in backend, instead of
EEH core.

The issue was detected in a bit complicated test case where
we have multiple hierarchical PEs shown as following figure:
+-----------------+
| PE#3 p2p#0 |
| p2p#1 |
+-----------------+
|
+-----------------+
| PE#4 pdev#0 |
| pdev#1 |
+-----------------+
PE#4 (have 2 PCI devices) is the child of PE#3, which has 2 p2p
bridges. We accidentally had less-known scenario: PE#4 was removed
permanently from the system because of permanent failure (e.g.
exceeding the max allowd failure times in last hour), then we detects
EEH errors on PE#3 and tried to recover it. However, eeh_dev instances
for pdev#0/1 were not detached from PE#4, which was still connected to
PE#3. All of that was because of the fact that we rely on count-based
pcibios_release_device(), which isn't reliable enough. When doing
recovery for PE#3, we still apply hotplug on PE#4 and pdev#0/1, which
are not valid any more. Eventually, we run into kernel crash.
The patch fixes above issue from two aspects. For unplug, we simply
skip those permanently removed PE, whose state is (EEH_PE_STATE_ISOLATED
&& !EEH_PE_STATE_RECOVERING) and its frozen count should be greater
than EEH_MAX_ALLOWED_FREEZES. For plug, we marked all permanently
removed EEH devices with EEH_DEV_REMOVED and return 0xFF's on read
its PCI config so that PCI core will omit them.

There're 2 EEH subsystem variables: eeh_subsystem_enabled and
eeh_probe_mode. We needn't maintain 2 variables and we can just
have one variable and introduce different flags. The patch also
introduces additional flag EEH_FORCE_DISABLE, which will be used
to disable EEH subsystem via boot parameter ("eeh=off") in future.
Besides, the patch also introduces flag EEH_ENABLED, which is
changed to disable or enable EEH functionality on the fly through
debugfs entry in future.
With the patch applied, the creteria to check the enabled EEH
functionality is changed to:
!EEH_FORCE_DISABLED && EEH_ENABLED : Enabled
Other cases : Disabled

When calling into eeh_gather_pci_data() on pSeries platform, we
possiblly don't have pci_dev instance yet, but eeh_dev is always
ready. So we use cached capability from eeh_dev instead of pci_dev
for log dump there. In order to keep things unified, we also cache
PCI capability positions to eeh_dev for PowerNV as well.

We've observed multiple PE reset failures because of PCI-CFG
access during that period. Potentially, some device drivers
can't support EEH very well and they can't put the device to
motionless state before PE reset. So those device drivers might
produce PCI-CFG accesses during PE reset. Also, we could have
PCI-CFG access from user space (e.g. "lspci"). Since access to
frozen PE should return 0xFF's, we can block PCI-CFG access
during the period of PE reset so that we won't get recrusive EEH
errors.
The patch adds flag EEH_PE_RESET, which is kept during PE reset.
The PowerNV/pSeries PCI-CFG accessors reuse the flag to block
PCI-CFG accordingly.
