All irq_domain_add_*() functions are going away. PowerPC is the only
user of irq_domain_add_nomap() and there is no irq_domain_create_nomap()
complement.
Therefore, to align with the rest of the kernel, rename
irq_domain_add_nomap() to irq_domain_create_nomap() and accept a
fwnode_handle instead of a device_node.

irq_domain_add_*() interfaces are going away as being obsolete now.
Switch to the preferred irq_domain_create_*() ones. Those differ in the
node parameter: They take more generic struct fwnode_handle instead of
struct device_node. Therefore, of_fwnode_handle() is added around the
original parameter.
Note some of the users can likely use dev->fwnode directly instead of
indirect of_fwnode_handle(dev->of_node). But dev->fwnode is not
guaranteed to be set for all, so this has to be investigated on case to
case basis (by people who can actually test with the HW).

When a system is being suspended to RAM, the PCI devices are also
suspended and the PPC code ends up calling pseries_msi_compose_msg() and
this triggers the BUG_ON() in __pci_read_msi_msg() because the device at
this point is in reduced power state. In reduced power state, the memory
mapped registers of the PCI device are not accessible.
To replicate the bug:
1. Make sure deep sleep is selected
# cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
s2idle [deep]
2. Make sure console is not suspended (so that dmesg logs are visible)
echo N > /sys/module/printk/parameters/console_suspend
3. Suspend the system
echo mem > /sys/power/state
To fix this behaviour, read the cached msi message of the device when the
device is not in PCI_D0 power state instead of touching the hardware.

The RTAS call ibm,physical-attestation is used to retrieve
information about the trusted boot state of the firmware and
hypervisor on the system, and also Trusted Platform Modules (TPM)
data if the system is TCG 2.0 compliant.
This RTAS interface expects the caller to define different command
structs such as RetrieveTPMLog, RetrievePlatformCertificat and etc,
in a work area with a maximum size of 4K bytes and the response
buffer will be returned in the same work area.
The current implementation of this RTAS function is in the user
space but allocation of the work area is restricted with the system
lockdown. So this patch implements this RTAS function in the kernel
and expose to the user space with open/ioctl/read interfaces.
PAPR (2.13+ 21.3 ibm,physical-attestation) defines RTAS function:
- Pass the command struct to obtain the response buffer for the
specific command.
- This RTAS function is sequence RTAS call and has to issue RTAS
call multiple times to get the complete response buffer (max 64K).
The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call with the sequence 1 and
the subsequent calls with the sequence number returned from the
previous calls.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a
/dev/papr-physical-attestation character device using the following
programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-physical-attestation");
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_PHY_ATTEST_IOC_HANDLE,
struct papr_phy_attest_io_block);
- The user space defines the command struct and requests the
response for any command.
- Obtain the complete response buffer and returned the buffer as
blob to the command specific FD.
size = read(fd, buf, len);
- Can retrieve the response buffer once or multiple times until the
end of BLOB buffer.

ibm,platform-dump RTAS call in combination with writable mapping
/dev/mem is issued to collect platform dump from the hypervisor
and may need multiple calls to get the complete dump. The current
implementation uses rtas_platform_dump() API provided by librtas
library to issue these RTAS calls. But /dev/mem access by the
user space is prohibited under system lockdown.
The solution should be to restrict access to RTAS function in user
space and provide kernel interfaces to collect dump. This patch
adds papr-platform-dump character driver and expose standard
interfaces such as open / ioctl/ read to user space in ways that
are compatible with lockdown.
PAPR (7.3.3.4.1 ibm,platform-dump) provides a method to obtain
the complete dump:
- Each dump will be identified by ID called dump tag.
- A sequence of RTAS calls have to be issued until retrieve the
complete dump. The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call with
the sequence 0 and the subsequent calls with the sequence
number returned from the previous calls.
- The hypervisor returns "dump complete" status once the complete
dump is retrieved. But expects one more RTAS call from the
partition with the NULL buffer to invalidate dump which means
the dump will be removed in the hypervisor.
- Sequence of calls are allowed with different dump IDs at the
same time but not with the same dump ID.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-platform-dump
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-platform-dump", O_RDONLY);
int fd = ioctl(devfd,PAPR_PLATFORM_DUMP_IOC_CREATE_HANDLE, &dump_id)
- Restrict user space to access with the same dump ID.
Typically we do not expect user space requests the dump
again for the same dump ID.
char *buf = malloc(size);
length = read(fd, buf, size);
- size should be minimum 1K based on PAPR and <= 4K based
on RTAS work area size. It will be restrict to RTAS work
area size. Using 4K work area based on the current
implementation in librtas library
- Each read call issue RTAS call to get the data based on
the size requirement and returns bytes returned from the
hypervisor
- If the previous call returns dump complete status, the
next read returns 0 like EOF.
ret = ioctl(PAPR_PLATFORM_DUMP_IOC_INVALIDATE, &dump_id)
- RTAS call with NULL buffer to invalidates the dump.
The read API should use the file descriptor obtained from ioctl
based on dump ID so that gets dump contents for the corresponding
dump ID. Implemented support in librtas (rtas_platform_dump()) for
this new ABI to support system lockdown.

The RTAS call ibm,get-dynamic-sensor-state is used to get the
sensor state identified by the location code and the sensor
token. The librtas library provides an API
rtas_get_dynamic_sensor() which uses /dev/mem access for work
area allocation but is restricted under system lockdown.
This patch provides an interface with new ioctl
PAPR_DYNAMIC_SENSOR_IOC_GET to the papr-indices character
driver which executes this HCALL and copies the sensor state
in the user specified ioctl buffer.

The RTAS call ibm,get-indices is used to obtain indices and
location codes for a specified indicator or sensor token. The
current implementation uses rtas_get_indices() API provided by
librtas library which allocates RMO buffer and issue this RTAS
call in the user space. But writable mapping /dev/mem access by
the user space is prohibited under system lockdown.
To overcome the restricted access in the user space, the kernel
provide interfaces to collect indices data from the hypervisor.
This patch adds papr-indices character driver and expose standard
interfaces such as open / ioctl/ read to user space in ways that
are compatible with lockdown.
PAPR (2.13 7.3.17 ibm,get-indices RTAS Call) describes the
following steps to retrieve all indices data:
- User input parameters to the RTAS call: sensor or indicator,
and indice type
- ibm,get-indices is sequence RTAS call which means has to issue
multiple times to get the entire list of indicators or sensors
of a particular type. The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call
with the sequence 1 and the subsequent calls with the sequence
number returned from the previous calls.
- The OS may not interleave calls to ibm,get-indices for different
indicator or sensor types. Means other RTAS calls with different
type should not be issued while the previous type sequence is in
progress. So collect the entire list of indices and copied to
buffer BLOB during ioctl() and expose this buffer to the user
space with the file descriptor.
- The hypervisor fills the work area with a specific format but
does not return the number of bytes written to the buffer.
Instead of parsing the data for each call to determine the data
length, copy the work area size (RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE) to
the buffer. Return work-area size of data to the user space for
each read() call.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-indices
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-indices", O_RDONLY);
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_INDICES_IOC_GET,
struct papr_indices_io_block)
- Collect all indices data for the specified token to the buffer
char *buf = malloc(RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE);
length = read(fd, buf, RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE)
- RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE of data is returned to the user
space.
- The user space retrieves the indices and their location codes
from the buffer
- Should issue multiple read() calls until reaches the end of
BLOB buffer.
The read() should use the file descriptor obtained from ioctl to
get the data that is exposed to file descriptor. Implemented
support in librtas (rtas_get_indices()) for this new ABI for
system lockdown.

The RTAS call can be normal where retrieves the data form the
hypervisor once or sequence based RTAS call which has to
issue multiple times until the complete data is obtained. For
some of these sequence RTAS calls, the OS should not interleave
calls with different input until the sequence is completed.
The data is collected for each call and copy to the buffer
for the entire sequence during ioctl() handle and then expose
this buffer to the user space with read() handle.
One such sequence RTAS call is ibm,get-vpd and its support is
already included in the current code. To add the similar support
for other sequence based calls, move the common functions in to
separate file and update papr_rtas_sequence struct with the
following callbacks so that RTAS call specific code will be
defined and executed to complete the sequence.
struct papr_rtas_sequence {
int error;
void params;
void (*begin) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *);
void (*end) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *);
const char * (*work) (struct papr_rtas_sequence *, size_t *);
};
params: Input parameters used to pass for RTAS call.
Begin: RTAS call specific function to initialize data
including work area allocation.
End: RTAS call specific function to free up resources
(free work area) after the sequence is completed.
Work: The actual RTAS call specific function which collects
the data from the hypervisor.

- The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
- The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been
deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from

pte-mapped large folios.
- The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from
Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation

Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests.
- The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap"
from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't
being effective.
- The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman
Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the
GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic.
- The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from
SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
- The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some
issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did
this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code
easier to follow.

Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase
which we accidentally added late last year.
- The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of
how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.
- The 3 patch series "Fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages()
for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.
- The 9 patch series "mm/damon: make allow filters after reject filters
useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow
and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the
documention is updated accordingly.
- The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry
Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits
the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.
- The 6 patch series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang

- The 13 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via
damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs
access to DAMON internal data.
- The 3 patch series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.

behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.

reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren

ioremap_prot() currently accepts pgprot_val parameter as an unsigned long,
thus implicitly assuming that pgprot_val and pgprot_t could never be
bigger than unsigned long. But this assumption soon will not be true on
arm64 when using D128 pgtables. In 128 bit page table configuration,
unsigned long is 64 bit, but pgprot_t is 128 bit.
Passing platform abstracted pgprot_t argument is better as compared to
size based data types. Let's change the parameter to directly pass
pgprot_t like another similar helper generic_ioremap_prot().
Without this change in place, D128 configuration does not work on arm64 as
the top 64 bits gets silently stripped when passing the protection value
to this function.

Leak fixes back in 2008 missed one case - if we are trying to set affinity
and spufs_mkdir() fails, we need to drop the reference to neighbor.

Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
prior to "[POWERPC] spufs: Fix gang destroy leaks" we used to have
a problem with gang lifetimes - creation of a gang returns opened
gang directory, which normally gets removed when that gets closed,
but if somebody has created a context belonging to that gang and
kept it alive until the gang got closed, removal failed and we
ended up with a leak.
Unfortunately, it had been fixed the wrong way. Dentry of gang
directory was no longer pinned, and rmdir on close was gone.
One problem was that failure of open kept calling simple_rmdir()
as cleanup, which meant an unbalanced dput(). Another bug was
in the success case - gang creation incremented link count on
root directory, but that was no longer undone when gang got
destroyed.
Fix consists of
* reverting the commit in question
* adding a counter to gang, protected by ->i_rwsem
of gang directory inode.
* having it set to 1 at creation time, dropped
in both spufs_dir_close() and spufs_gang_close() and bumped
in spufs_create_context(), provided that it's not 0.
* using simple_recursive_removal() to take the gang
directory out when counter reaches zero.

It's called from spufs_fill_dir(), and caller of that will do
spufs_rmdir() in case of failure. That does remove everything
we'd managed to create, but... the problem dentry is still
negative. IOW, it needs to be explicitly dropped.

This adds support for Microwatt systems with more than one core, and
updates the device tree for a 2-core version.
The secondary CPUs are started and sent to spin in __secondary_hold
very early on, in the platform probe function. The reason for doing
this is so that they are there when smp_release_cpus() gets called,
which is before the platform init_smp function or even the platform
setup_arch function gets called.
Note that having two CPUs in the device tree doesn't preclude
operation with only one CPU. The SYSCON_CPU_CTRL register has a
read-only field which indicates the number of CPU cores, so
microwatt_init_smp() will only start as many CPU cores as are present
in the system, and any extra CPU device-tree nodes will just be
ignored.
