<id>urn:sha1:6e3e38226e70ae92af3ce8bff411147619963e54</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a58007621be33e9f7c7bed5d5ff8ecb914e1044a upstream.

In v4.20 we changed our pgd/pud_present() to check for _PAGE_PRESENT
rather than just checking that the value is non-zero, e.g.:

  static inline int pgd_present(pgd_t pgd)
  {
 -       return !pgd_none(pgd);
 +       return (pgd_raw(pgd) &amp; cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PRESENT));
  }

Unfortunately this is broken on big endian, as the result of the
bitwise &amp; is truncated to int, which is always zero because
_PAGE_PRESENT is 0x8000000000000000ul. This means pgd_present() and
pud_present() are always false at compile time, and the compiler
elides the subsequent code.

Remarkably with that bug present we are still able to boot and run
with few noticeable effects. However under some work loads we are able
to trigger a warning in the ext4 code:

  WARNING: CPU: 11 PID: 29593 at fs/ext4/inode.c:3927 .ext4_set_page_dirty+0x70/0xb0
  CPU: 11 PID: 29593 Comm: debugedit Not tainted 4.20.0-rc1 #1
  ...

   .__vm_munmap+0x80/0x110
   .__se_sys_munmap+0x14/0x30
   system_call+0x5c/0x70

The fix is simple, we need to convert the result of the bitwise &amp; to
an int before returning it.

Thanks to Erhard, Jan Kara and Aneesh for help with debugging.

commit 579b9239c1f38665b21e8d0e6ee83ecc96dbd6bb upstream.

With support for split pmd lock, we use pmd page pmd_huge_pte pointer
to store the deposited page table. In those config when we move page
tables we need to make sure we move the deposited page table to the
correct pmd page. Otherwise this can result in crash when we withdraw
of deposited page table because we can find the pmd_huge_pte NULL.

eg:

  __split_huge_pmd+0x1070/0x1940
  __split_huge_pmd+0xe34/0x1940 (unreliable)
  vma_adjust_trans_huge+0x110/0x1c0

[ Upstream commit 0db6896ff6332ba694f1e61b93ae3b2640317633 ]

For fadump to work successfully there should not be any holes in reserved
memory ranges where kernel has asked firmware to move the content of old
kernel memory in event of crash. Now that fadump uses CMA for reserved
area, this memory area is now not protected from hot-remove operations
unless it is cma allocated. Hence, fadump service can fail to re-register
after the hot-remove operation, if hot-removed memory belongs to fadump
reserved region. To avoid this make sure that memory from fadump reserved
area is not hot-removable if fadump is registered.

However, if user still wants to remove that memory, he can do so by
manually stopping fadump service before hot-remove operation.

[ Upstream commit 05a4ab823983d9136a460b7b5e0d49ee709a6f86 ]

With the following piece of code, the following compilation warning
is encountered:

	if (_IOC_DIR(ioc) != _IOC_NONE) {
		int verify = _IOC_DIR(ioc) &amp; _IOC_READ ? VERIFY_WRITE : VERIFY_READ;

		if (!access_ok(verify, ioarg, _IOC_SIZE(ioc))) {

drivers/platform/test/dev.c: In function 'my_ioctl':
drivers/platform/test/dev.c:219:7: warning: unused variable 'verify' [-Wunused-variable]
   int verify = _IOC_DIR(ioc) &amp; _IOC_READ ? VERIFY_WRITE : VERIFY_READ;

This patch fixes it by referencing 'type' in the macro allthough
doing nothing with it.

Now that there are different variants of pt_regs for userspace and

changed by exporting the user_pt_regs structure instead of the pt_regs
structure that is in-kernel only.

Commit 4c2de74cc869 ("powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather
than thread_struct") changed sizeof(struct pt_regs) % 16 from 0 to 8,
which causes the interrupt frame allocation on kernel entry to put the
kernel stack out of alignment.

Quadword (16-byte) alignment for the stack is required by both the
64-bit v1 ABI (v1.9 § 3.2.2) and the 64-bit v2 ABI (v1.1 § 2.2.2.1).

Add a pad field to fix alignment, and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch this
in future.

<content type='text'>
Back in 2006 Ben added some workarounds for a misbehaviour in the
Spider IO bridge used on early Cell machines, see commit
014da7ff47b5 ("[POWERPC] Cell "Spider" MMIO workarounds"). Later these
were made to be generic, ie. not tied specifically to Spider.

The code stashes a token in the high bits (59-48) of virtual addresses
used for IO (eg. returned from ioremap()). This works fine when using
the Hash MMU, but when we're using the Radix MMU the bits used for the
token overlap with some of the bits of the virtual address.

This is because the maximum virtual address is larger with Radix, up
to c00fffffffffffff, and in fact we use that high part of the address
range for ioremap(), see RADIX_KERN_IO_START.

As it happens the bits that are used overlap with the bits that
differentiate an IO address vs a linear map address. If the resulting
address lies outside the linear mapping we will crash (see below), if
not we just corrupt memory.

This hasn't been a problem because CONFIG_PPC_IO_WORKAROUNDS which
enables this code is usually not enabled. It is only enabled when it's
selected by PPC_CELL_NATIVE which is only selected by
PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE and that in turn depends on BIG_ENDIAN. So in order
to hit the bug you need to build a big endian kernel, with IBM Cell
Blade support enabled, as well as Radix MMU support, and then boot
that on Power9 using Radix MMU.

Still we can fix the bug, so let's do that. We simply use fewer bits
for the token, taking the union of the restrictions on the address
from both Hash and Radix, we end up with 8 bits we can use for the
token. The only user of the token is iowa_mem_find_bus() which only
supports 8 token values, so 8 bits is plenty for that.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "Some things that I missed due to travel, or that came in late.

  Two fixes also going to stable:

   - A revert of a buggy change to the 8xx TLB miss handlers.

   - Our flushing of SPE (Signal Processing Engine) registers on fork
     was broken.

  Other changes:

   - A change to the KVM decrementer emulation to use proper APIs.

   - Some cleanups to the way we do code patching in the 8xx code.

   - Expose the maximum possible memory for the system in
     /proc/powerpc/lparcfg.

   - Merge some updates from Scott: "a couple device tree updates, and a
     fix for a missing prototype warning"

  A few other minor fixes and a handful of fixes for our selftests.

Prefer _THIS_IP_ defined in linux/kernel.h.

Most definitions of current_text_addr were the same as _THIS_IP_, but
a few archs had inline assembly instead.

This patch removes the final call site of current_text_addr, making all
of the definitions dead code.
