<title>powerpc/powernv: Fix CPU hotplug to handle waking on HVI</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9b256714979fad61ae11d90b53cf67dd5e6484eb</id>
<content type='text'>
The IPIs come in as HVI not EE, so we need to test the appropriate
SRR1 bits. The encoding is such that it won't have false positives
on P7 and P8 so we can just test it like that. We also need to handle
the icp-opal variant of the flush.

  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include &lt;linux/uaccess.h&gt;!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Highlights include:

   - Support for the kexec_file_load() syscall, which is a prereq for
     secure and trusted boot.

   - Prevent kernel execution of userspace on P9 Radix (similar to
     SMEP/PXN).

   - Sort the exception tables at build time, to save time at boot, and
     store them as relative offsets to save space in the kernel image &amp;
     memory.

   - Allow building the kernel with thin archives, which should allow us
     to build an allyesconfig once some other fixes land.

   - Build fixes to allow us to correctly rebuild when changing the
     kernel endian from big to little or vice versa.

   - Plumbing so that we can avoid doing a full mm TLB flush on P9
     Radix.

   - Initial stack protector support (-fstack-protector).

   - Support for dumping the radix (aka. Linux) and hash page tables via
     debugfs.

   - Fix an oops in cxl coredump generation when cxl_get_fd() is used.

   - Freescale updates from Scott: "Highlights include 8xx hugepage
     support, qbman fixes/cleanup, device tree updates, and some misc
     cleanup."

   - Many and varied fixes and minor enhancements as always.

Every single user of vmf-&gt;virtual_address typed that entry to unsigned
long before doing anything with it so the type of virtual_address does
not really provide us any additional safety.  Just use masked
vmf-&gt;address which already has the appropriate type.

<content type='text'>
8xx uses a two level page table with two different linux page size
support (4k and 16k). 8xx also support two different hugepage sizes
512k and 8M. In order to support them on linux we define two different
page table layout.

The size of pages is in the PGD entry, using PS field (bits 28-29):
00 : Small pages (4k or 16k)
01 : 512k pages
10 : reserved
11 : 8M pages

For 512K hugepage size a pgd entry have the below format
[&lt;hugepte address &gt;0101] . The hugepte table allocated will contain 8
entries pointing to 512K huge pte in 4k pages mode and 64 entries in
16k pages mode.

For 8M in 16k mode, a pgd entry have the below format
[&lt;hugepte address &gt;1101] . The hugepte table allocated will contain 8
entries pointing to 8M huge pte.

For 8M in 4k mode, multiple pgd entries point to the same hugepte
address and pgd entry will have the below format
[&lt;hugepte address&gt;1101]. The hugepte table allocated will only have one
entry.

For the time being, we do not support CPU15 ERRATA when HUGETLB is
selected

Some tracepoints have a registration function that gets enabled when the
tracepoint is enabled. There may be cases that the registraction function
must fail (for example, can't allocate enough memory). In this case, the
tracepoint should also fail to register, otherwise the user would not know
why the tracepoint is not working.
