For 32-bit, CONFIG_EPAPR_PARAVIRT pulls in both epapr_paravirt.c
and epapr_hcalls.c which contains the 32-bit paravirt idle loop.
For 64-bit, the paravirt idle loop is in idle_book3e.S and that
source file is included only if CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E_64 defined.
This patch makes that dependency for 64-bit explicit.
Fixes these build errors:
arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `restore_pblist_ptr':
ftrace.c:(.toc+0xdc0): undefined reference to `epapr_ev_idle_start'

The FWNMI region is fixed at 0x7000 and the vector are now overflowing
that with allmodconfig. Fix that by moving slb_miss_realmode code out
of that region as it doesn't need to be that close to the call sites
(it is a _GLOBAL function)

Now we use ESID_BITS of kernel address to build proto vsid. So rename

This patch change the kernel VSID range so that we limit VSID_BITS to 37.
This enables us to support 64TB with 65 bit VA (37+28). Without this patch
we have boot hangs on platforms that only support 65 bit VA.
With this patch we now have proto vsid generated as below:
We first generate a 37-bit "proto-VSID". Proto-VSIDs are generated
from mmu context id and effective segment id of the address.
For user processes max context id is limited to ((1ul << 19) - 5)
for kernel space, we use the top 4 context ids to map address as below
0x7fffc - [ 0xc000000000000000 - 0xc0003fffffffffff ]
0x7fffd - [ 0xd000000000000000 - 0xd0003fffffffffff ]
0x7fffe - [ 0xe000000000000000 - 0xe0003fffffffffff ]
0x7ffff - [ 0xf000000000000000 - 0xf0003fffffffffff ]

With some CONFIGS it's possible that in ppc_set_hwdebug, brk.len is
uninitialised before being used. It has been reported that GCC 4.2 will
produce the following error in this case:
arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c:1479: warning: 'brk.len' is used uninitialized in this function
arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c:1381: note: 'brk.len' was declared here

Commit 5ac47f7a6efb (powerpc: Relocate prom_init.c on 64bit) made
prom_init.c position independent by manually relocating its entries
in the TOC.
We get the address of the TOC entries with the __prom_init_toc_start
linker symbol. If __prom_init_toc_start ends up as an entry in the
TOC then we need to add an offset to get the current address. This is
the case for older toolchains.
On the other hand, if we have a newer toolchain that supports
-mcmodel=medium then __prom_init_toc_start will be created by a
relative offset from r2 (the TOC pointer). Since r2 has already been
relocated, nothing more needs to be done. Adding an offset in this
case is wrong and Aaro Koskinen and Alexander Graf have noticed noticed
G5 and OpenBIOS breakage.
Alan Modra suggested we just use r2 to get at the TOC which is simpler
and works with both old and new toolchains.

We support DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) so we should make sure we set it

Currently we use the link register to branch up high in the early MMU on
syscall entry path. Unfortunately, this trashes the link stack as the
address we are going to is not associated with the earlier mflr.
This patch simply converts us to used the count register (volatile over
syscalls anyway) instead. This is much better at predicting in this
scenario and doesn't trash link stack causing a bunch of additional
branch mispredicts later. Benchmarking this on POWER8 saves a bunch of
cycles on Anton's null syscall benchmark here:

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

We do lazy FP but not lazy TM (ie. userspace starts with MSR TM=1 FP=0). Hence
if userspace does an FP instruction during a transaction, we'll take an
fp unavailable exception.
This adds functions needed to handle this case. We have to inject the current
FP state into the checkpoint so that the hardware can decide what to do with
the transaction. We can't inject only the FP so we have to do a full treclaim
and recheckpoint to inject just the FP state. This will cause the transaction
to be marked as aborted by the hardware.
This just add the routines needed to do this for FP, VMX and VSX. It doesn't
hook them into the rest of the code yet.

These should never happen since we always turn on MSR TM when in userspace. We
don't do lazy TM.
Hence if we hit this, we barf and kill the task as something's gone horribly
wrong.

transactional memory processes
When we switch out a task, we need to save both the checkpointed and the
speculated state into the thread struct.
Similarly when we are switching in a task we need to load both the checkpointed
and speculated state. If the task was using FP, we non-lazily reload both the
original and the speculative FP register states. This is because the kernel
doesn't see if/when a TM rollback occurs, so if we take an FP unavoidable
later, we are unable to determine which set of FP regs need to be restored.
This simply adds these functions. It doesn't hook them into the existing code
yet.

This adds functions to restore the state of the FP/VSX registers from
what's stored in the thread_struct. Two version for FP/VSX are required
since one restores them from transactional/checkpoint side of the
thread_struct and the other from the speculated side.
Similar functions are added for VMX registers.

Here we add the helper functions to be used when context switching. These
allow us to fully reclaim and recheckpoint a transaction.
We introduce a new paca field called tm_scratch to help us store away register
values when doing the low level tm reclaim register save.

In commit 466921c we added a hack to set the paca data_offset to zero so
that per-cpu accesses would work on the boot cpu prior to per-cpu areas
being setup. This fixed a problem with lockdep touching per-cpu areas
very early in boot.
However if we combine CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y with any of the PPC_EARLY_DEBUG
options, we can hit the same problem in udbg_early_init(). To avoid that
we need to set the data_offset of the boot_paca also. So factor out the
fixup logic and call it for both the boot_paca, and "the paca of the
boot cpu".

The CFAR (Come-From Address Register) is a useful debugging aid that
exists on POWER7 processors. Currently HV KVM doesn't save or restore
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).

It seems, we're fine with just annotating the two functions.
Thus, this fixes the following build warnings on ppc64:

The function .ics_rtas_init() references
the function __init .xics_register_ics().
This is often because .ics_rtas_init lacks a __init
