The changes to use gas sections for constructing the exception vectors
causes a build break when using binutils 2.23:
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:770: Error: operand out of range
(0xffffffffffff8100 is not between 0x0000000000000000 and 0x000000000000ffff)
And so on.
Reported by Hugh with binutils-2.23.2-8.1.4.ppc64 from openSUSE 13.1 and
also Naveen & Denis using 2.23.52.0.1-26.el7 from RHEL 7. Strangely
binutils 2.22 (what I test with) is not affected.
This is caused by the use of @l in LOAD_HANDLER(). The @l was only
recently added in commit a24553dd02dc ("powerpc/pseries: Remove
unnecessary syscall trampoline").
Luckily the gas section changes split out the LOAD_SYSCALL_HANDLER()
macro, which means we actually *don't* need to use @l in LOAD_HANDLER()
any more, only in LOAD_SYSCALL_HANDLER().
So drop the @l from LOAD_HANDLER().

Wakeups from winkle set the low bit of the HSPRG0 register, to
distinguish it from other sleep states. This is also the PACA pointer.
The system reset exception handler fails to mask this bit away before
using this value before using it as the PACA pointer.
Fix this by adding a new type of exception prolog macro where we already
have the PACA set in r13, and have the system reset vector mask it out.
The winkle wakeup handler will store the masked value back into HSPRG0.

This patch does a couple of things. First of all, powernv immediately
explodes when running a relocated kernel, because the system reset
exception for handling sleeps does not do correct relocated branches.
Secondly, the sleep handling code trashes the condition and cfar
registers, which we would like to preserve for debugging purposes (for
non-sleep case exception).
This patch changes the exception to use the standard format that saves
registers before any tests or branches are made. It adds the test for
idle-wakeup as an "extra" to break out of the normal exception path.
Then it branches to a relocated idle handler that calls the various
idle handling functions.
After this patch, POWER8 CPU simulator now boots powernv kernel that is
running at non-zero.

Use assembler sections of fixed size and location to arrange the 64-bit
Book3S exception vector code (64-bit Book3E also uses it in head_64.S
for 0x0..0x100).
This allows better flexibility in arranging exception code and hiding
unimportant details behind macros.
Gas sections can be a bit painful to use this way, mainly because the
assembler does not know where they will be finally linked. Taking
absolute addresses requires a bit of trickery for example, but it can
be hidden behind macros for the most part.
Generated code is mostly the same except locations, offsets, alignments.
The "+ 0x2" is only required for the trap number / kvm exit number,
which gets loaded as a constant into a register.
Previously, code also used + 0x2 for label names, but we changed to
using "H" to distinguish HV case for that. Remove the last vestiges
of that.
__after_prom_start is taking absolute address of a label in another
fixed section. Newer toolchains seemed to compile this okay, but older
ones do not. FIXED_SYMBOL_ABS_ADDR is more foolproof, it just takes an
additional line to define.

Create arch/powerpc/include/asm/head-64.h with macros that specify
an exception vector (name, type, location), which will be used to
label and lay out exceptions into the object file.
Naming is moved out of exception-64s.h, which is used to specify the
implementation of exception handlers.
objdump of generated code in exception vectors is unchanged except for
names. Alignment directives scattered around are annoying, but done
this way so that disassembly can verify identical instruction
generation before and after patch. These get cleaned up in future
patch.
We change the way KVMTEST works, explicitly passing EXC_HV or EXC_STD
rather than overloading the trap number. This removes the need to have
SOFTEN values for the overloaded trap numbers, eg. 0x502.

When we originally added the ability to split the exception vectors from
the kernel (commit 1f6a93e4c35e ("powerpc: Make it possible to move the
interrupt handlers away from the kernel" 2008-09-15)), the LOAD_HANDLER() macro
used an addi instruction to compute the offset of the common handler
from the kernel base address.
Using addi meant the handler had to be within 32K of the kernel base
address, due to the addi instruction taking a signed immediate value.
That necessitated creating a trampoline for the system call handler,
because system_call_common (in entry64.S) is not linked within 32K of
the kernel base address.
Later in commit 61e2390ede3c ("powerpc: Make load_hander handle upto 64k
offset" 2012-11-15) we changed LOAD_HANDLER to take a 64K offset, by
changing it to use ori.
Although system_call_common is not in head_64.S or exceptions-64s.S, it
is included in head-y, which causes it to be linked early in the kernel
text, so in practice it ends up below 64K. Additionally if it can't be
placed below 64K the linker will fail to build with a "relocation
truncated to fit" error.
So remove the trampoline.
Newer toolchains are able to work out that the ori in LOAD_HANDLER only
takes a 16 bit offset, and so they generate a 16 bit relocation. Older
toolchains (binutils 2.22 at least) are not so smart, so we have to add
the @l annotation to tell the assembler to generate a 16 bit relocation.

The LOAD_HANDLER macro requires that you have previously loaded "reg"
with PACAKBASE. Although that gives callers flexibility to get PACAKBASE
in some interesting way, none of the callers actually do that. So fold
the load of PACAKBASE into the macro, making it simpler for callers to
use correctly.

The STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro takes both a vector number, and a
location (memory address). However both are always identical, so combine
them to save repeating ourselves.
This does mean an exception handler must always exist at the location in
memory that matches its vector number. But that's OK because this is the
"STD" macro (standard), which does exactly that. We have other macros
for the other cases, eg. STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES_OOL (out of line).

HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is a macro which is present at the start of most
of our first level exception handlers. It conditionally executes a
HMT_MEDIUM instruction, which sets the processor priority to medium.
On on modern systems, ie. Power7 and later, it is nop'ed out at boot.
All it does is make the exception vectors more cramped, and consume 4
bytes of icache.
On old systems it has the effect of boosting the processor priority at
the start of exception processing. If we were previously in the idle
loop for example, we may be at low or very low priority. This is
desirable as we want to process the exception as fast as possible.
However looking closely at the generated code, we see that in all cases
we execute another HMT_MEDIUM just four instructions later. With code
patching applied, the final code on an old (Power6) system will look
like, eg:
c000000000000300 <data_access_pSeries>:
c000000000000300: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
c000000000000304: 7d b2 43 a6 mtsprg 2,r13
c000000000000308: 7d b1 42 a6 mfsprg r13,1
c00000000000030c: f9 2d 00 80 std r9,128(r13)
c000000000000310: 60 00 00 00 nop
c000000000000314: 7c 42 13 78 mr r2,r2 <-
So I suggest that the added code complexity of HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is
not justified by the benefit of boosting the processor priority for the
duration of four instructions, and therefore we drop it.

Currently, if HV KVM is configured but PR KVM isn't, we don't include
a test to see whether we were interrupted in KVM guest context for the
set of interrupts which get delivered directly to the guest by hardware
if they occur in the guest. This includes things like program
interrupts.
However, the recent bug where userspace could set the MSR for a VCPU
to have an illegal value in the TS field, and thus cause a TM Bad Thing
type of program interrupt on the hrfid that enters the guest, showed that
we can never be completely sure that these interrupts can never occur
in the guest entry/exit code. If one of these interrupts does happen
and we have HV KVM configured but not PR KVM, then we end up trying to
run the handler in the host with the MMU set to the guest MMU context,
which generally ends badly.
Thus, for robustness it is better to have the test in every interrupt
vector, so that if some way is found to trigger some interrupt in the
guest entry/exit path, we can handle it without immediately crashing
the host.
This means that the distinction between KVMTEST and KVMTEST_PR goes
away. Thus we delete KVMTEST_PR and associated macros and use KVMTEST
everywhere that we previously used either KVMTEST_PR or KVMTEST. It
also means that SOFTEN_TEST_HV_201 becomes the same as SOFTEN_TEST_PR,
so we deleted SOFTEN_TEST_HV_201 and use SOFTEN_TEST_PR instead.

DISABLE_INTS has a long and storied history, but for some time now it
has not actually disabled interrupts.
For the open-coded exception handlers, just stop using it, instead call
RECONCILE_IRQ_STATE directly. This has the benefit of removing a level
of indirection, and making it clear that r10 & r11 are used at that
point.
For the addition case we still need a macro, so rename it to clarify
what it actually does.

In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1)
is valid when coming from the kernel. If it's not valid, we die but
with a nice oops message.
Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we
check to see if the stack pointer is negative. Unfortunately, this
won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE.
This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with
-INT_FRAME_SIZE. With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL
pointers) are correctly detected again.
Kudos to Paulus for finding this.

This patch splits the common exception prolog logic into three parts to
facilitate reuse of existing code in the next patch. This patch also
re-arranges few instructions in such a way that the second part now deals
with saving register values from paca save area to stack frame, and
the third part deals with saving current register values to stack frame.
The second and third part will be reused in the machine check exception
routine in the subsequent patch.
Please note that this patch does not introduce or change existing code
logic. Instead it is just a code movement and instruction re-ordering.

POWER7 and later IBM server processors have a register called the
Program Priority Register (PPR), which controls the priority of
each hardware CPU SMT thread, and affects how fast it runs compared
to other SMT threads. This priority can be controlled by writing to
the PPR or by use of a set of instructions of the form or rN,rN,rN
which are otherwise no-ops but have been defined to set the priority
to particular levels.
This adds code to context switch the PPR when entering and exiting
guests and to make the PPR value accessible through the SET/GET_ONE_REG
interface. When entering the guest, we set the PPR as late as
possible, because if we are setting a low thread priority it will
make the code run slowly from that point on. Similarly, the
first-level interrupt handlers save the PPR value in the PACA very
early on, and set the thread priority to the medium level, so that
the interrupt handling code runs at a reasonable speed.

When we have MMU on exceptions (POWER8) and a relocatable kernel, we
need to branch from the initial exception vectors at 0x0 to up high
where the kernel might be located. Currently we do this using the link
register.
Unfortunately this corrupts the link stack and instead we should use the
count register. We did this for the syscall entry path in:
6a40480 powerpc: Avoid link stack corruption in MMU on syscall entry path
but I stupidly forgot to do the same for other exceptions.
This patch changes the initial exception vectors to use the count
register instead of the link register when we need to branch up to the
relocated kernel.
I have a dodgy userspace test which loops calling a function that reads
the PVR (mfpvr in userspace will be emulated by the kernel via the
program check exception). On POWER8 and with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, I
get a ~10% performance improvement with my userspace test with this
patch.

KVMTEST is a macro which checks whether we are taking an exception from
guest context, if so we branch out of line and eventually call into the
KVM code to handle the switch.
When running real guests on bare metal (HV KVM) the hardware ensures
that we never take a relocation on exception when transitioning from
guest to host. For PR KVM we disable relocation on exceptions ourself in
kvmppc_core_init_vm(), as of commit a413f47 "Disable relocation on
exceptions whenever PR KVM is active".
So convert all the RELON macros to use NOTEST, and drop the remaining
KVM_HANDLER() definitions we have for 0xe40 and 0xe80.

__ppc64_runlatch_on() is called from RUNLATCH_ON in the exception entry
path. At that point the irq state is not consistent, ie. interrupts are
hard disabled (by the exception entry), but the paca soft-enabled flag
may be out of sync.
This leads to the local_irq_restore() in trace_graph_entry() actually
enabling interrupts, which we do not want. Because we have not yet
reprogrammed the decrementer we immediately take another decrementer
exception, and recurse.
The fix is twofold. Firstly make sure we call DISABLE_INTS before
calling RUNLATCH_ON. The badly named DISABLE_INTS actually reconciles
the irq state in the paca with the hardware, making it safe again to
call local_irq_save/restore().
Although that should be sufficient to fix the bug, we also mark the
runlatch routines as notrace. They are called very early in the
exception entry and we are asking for trouble tracing them. They are
also fairly uninteresting and tracing them just adds unnecessary
overhead.

Building a 64-bit powerpc kernel with PR KVM enabled currently gives
this error:
AS arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:258: Error: attempt to move .org backwards
make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1
This happens because the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro turns into
33 instructions, but we only have space for 32 at the decrementer
interrupt vector (from 0x900 to 0x980).
In the code generated by the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro, we
currently have two instances of the HMT_MEDIUM macro, which has the
effect of setting the SMT thread priority to medium. One is the
first instruction, and is overwritten by a no-op on processors where
we save the PPR (processor priority register), that is, POWER7 or
later. The other is after we have saved the PPR.
In order to reduce the code at 0x900 by one instruction, we omit the
first HMT_MEDIUM. On processors without SMT this will have no effect
since HMT_MEDIUM is a no-op there. On POWER5 and RS64 machines this
will mean that the first few instructions take a little longer in the
case where a decrementer interrupt occurs when the hardware thread is
running at low SMT priority. On POWER6 and later machines, the
hardware automatically boosts the thread priority when a decrementer
interrupt is taken if the thread priority was below medium, so this
change won't make any difference.
The alternative would be to branch out of line after saving the CFAR.
However, that would incur an extra overhead on all processors, whereas
the approach adopted here only adds overhead on older threaded processors.

the CFAR register for guest vcpus, making the CFAR of limited use in
guests.
This adds the necessary code to capture the CFAR value saved in the
early exception entry code (it has to be saved before any branch is
executed), save it in the vcpu.arch struct, and restore it on entry
to the guest.

Some of the interrupt vectors on 64-bit POWER server processors are
only 32 bytes long, which is not enough for the full first-level
interrupt handler. For these we currently just have a branch to an
out-of-line handler. However, this means that we corrupt the CFAR
(come-from address register) on POWER7 and later processors.
To fix this, we split the EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 macro into two pieces:
EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 contains the part up to the point where the CFAR
is saved in the PACA, and EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 contains the rest. We
then put EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 in the short interrupt vectors before
we branch to the out-of-line handler, which contains the rest of the
first-level interrupt handler. To facilitate this, we define new
_OOL (out of line) variants of STD_EXCEPTION_PSERIES, etc.
In order to get EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 to be short enough, i.e., no more
than 6 instructions, it was necessary to move the stores that move
the PPR and CFAR values into the PACA into __EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 and
to get rid of one of the two HMT_MEDIUM instructions. Previously
there was a HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD before the prolog, which was
nop'd out on processors with the PPR (POWER7 and later), and then
another HMT_MEDIUM inside the HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_SAVE macro call inside
__EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1, which was nop'd out on processors without PPR.
Now the HMT_MEDIUM inside EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 is there unconditionally
and the HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD is not strictly necessary, although
this leaves it in for the interrupt vectors where there is room for
it.
Previously we had a handler for hypervisor maintenance interrupts at
0xe50, which doesn't leave enough room for the vector for hypervisor
emulation assist interrupts at 0xe40, since we need 8 instructions.
The 0xe50 vector was only used on POWER6, as the HMI vector was moved
to 0xe60 on POWER7. Since we don't support running in hypervisor mode
on POWER6, we just remove the handler at 0xe50.
This also changes denorm_exception_hv to use EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0
instead of open-coding it, and removes the HMT_MEDIUM_PPR_DISCARD
from the relocation-on vectors (since any CPU that supports
relocation-on interrupts also has the PPR).

[PATCH 6/6] powerpc: Implement PPR save/restore
When the task enters in to kernel space, the user defined priority (PPR)
will be saved in to PACA at the beginning of first level exception
vector and then copy from PACA to thread_info in second level vector.
PPR will be restored from thread_info before exits the kernel space.
P7/P8 temporarily raises the thread priority to higher level during
exception until the program executes HMT_* calls. But it will not modify
PPR register. So we save PPR value whenever some register is available
to use and then calls HMT_MEDIUM to increase the priority. This feature
supports on P7 or later processors.
We save/ restore PPR for all exception vectors except system call entry.
GLIBC will be saving / restore for system calls. So the default PPR
value (3) will be set for the system call exit when the task returned
to the user space.

POWER8/v2.07 allows exceptions to be taken with the MMU still on.
A new set of exception vectors is added at 0xc000_0000_0000_4xxx. When the HW
takes us here, MSR IR/DR will be set already and we no longer need a costly
RFID to turn the MMU back on again.
The original 0x0 based exception vectors remain for when the HW can't leave the
MMU on. Examples of this are when we can't trust the current MMU mappings,
like when we are changing from guest to hypervisor (HV 0 -> 1) or when the MMU
was off already. In these cases the HW will take us to the original 0x0 based
exception vectors with the MMU off as before.
This uses the new macros added previously too implement these new execption
vectors at 0xc000_0000_0000_4xxx. We exit these exception vectors using
mflr/blr (rather than mtspr SSR0/RFID), since we don't need the costly MMU
switch anymore.
This moves the __end_interrupts marker down past these new 0x4000 vectors since
they will need to be copied down to 0x0 when the kernel is not at 0x0.

The current implementation of lazy interrupts handling has some
issues that this tries to address.
We don't do the various workarounds we need to do when re-enabling
interrupts in some cases such as when returning from an interrupt
and thus we may still lose or get delayed decrementer or doorbell
interrupts.
The current scheme also makes it much harder to handle the external
"edge" interrupts provided by some BookE processors when using the
EPR facility (External Proxy) and the Freescale Hypervisor.
Additionally, we tend to keep interrupts hard disabled in a number
of cases, such as decrementer interrupts, external interrupts, or
when a masked decrementer interrupt is pending. This is sub-optimal.
This is an attempt at fixing it all in one go by reworking the way
we do the lazy interrupt disabling from the ground up.
The base idea is to replace the "hard_enabled" field with a
"irq_happened" field in which we store a bit mask of what interrupt
occurred while soft-disabled.
When re-enabling, either via arch_local_irq_restore() or when returning
from an interrupt, we can now decide what to do by testing bits in that
field.
We then implement replaying of the missed interrupts either by
re-using the existing exception frame (in exception exit case) or via
the creation of a new one from an assembly trampoline (in the
arch_local_irq_enable case).
This removes the need to play with the decrementer to try to create
fake interrupts, among others.
In addition, this adds a few refinements:
- We no longer hard disable decrementer interrupts that occur
while soft-disabled. We now simply bump the decrementer back to max
(on BookS) or leave it stopped (on BookE) and continue with hard interrupts
enabled, which means that we'll potentially get better sample quality from
performance monitor interrupts.
- Timer, decrementer and doorbell interrupts now hard-enable
shortly after removing the source of the interrupt, which means
they no longer run entirely hard disabled. Again, this will improve
perf sample quality.
- On Book3E 64-bit, we now make the performance monitor interrupt
act as an NMI like Book3S (the necessary C code for that to work
appear to already be present in the FSL perf code, notably calling
nmi_enter instead of irq_enter). (This also fixes a bug where BookE
perfmon interrupts could clobber r14 ... oops)
- We could make "masked" decrementer interrupts act as NMIs when doing
timer-based perf sampling to improve the sample quality.

On 64-bit, the mfmsr instruction can be quite slow, slower
than loading a field from the cache-hot PACA, which happens
to already contain the value we want in most cases.

Some exceptions would unconditionally disable interrupts on entry,
which is fine, but calling lockdep every time not only adds more
overhead than strictly needed, but also means we get quite a few
"redudant" disable logged, which makes it hard to spot the really
bad ones.
So instead, split the macro used by the exception code into a
normal one and a separate one used when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is
enabled, and make the later skip th tracing if interrupts were
already disabled.

This moves the inlines into system.h and changes the runlatch
code to use the thread local flags (non-atomic) rather than
the TIF flags (atomic) to keep track of the latch state.

now simplified and partially inlined.

The perfmon interrupt is the sole user of a special variant of the
interrupt prolog which differs from the one used by external and timer
interrupts in that it saves the non-volatile GPRs and doesn't turn the
runlatch on.
The former is unnecessary and the later is arguably incorrect, so
let's clean that up by using the same prolog. While at it we rename
that prolog to use the _ASYNC prefix.
