Load instructions using ASI_PNF or other no-fault ASIs should not
cause a SIGSEGV or SIGBUS.
A garden variety unmapped address follows the TSB miss path, and when
no valid mapping is found in the process page tables, the miss handler
checks to see if the access was via a no-fault ASI. It then fixes up
the target register with a zero, and skips the no-fault load
instruction.
But different paths are taken for data access exceptions and alignment
traps, and these do not respect the no-fault ASI. We add checks in
these paths for the no-fault ASI, and fix up the target register and
TPC just like in the TSB miss case.

For many sun4v processor types, reading or writing a privileged register
has a latency of 40 to 70 cycles. Use a combination of the low-latency
allclean, otherw, normalw, and nop instructions in etrap and rtrap to
replace 2 rdpr and 5 wrpr instructions and improve etrap/rtrap
performance. allclean, otherw, and normalw are available on NG2 and
later processors.
The average ticks to execute the flush windows trap ("ta 0x3") with and
without this patch on select platforms:

====================
sparc64: Add 16GB hugepage support
SPARC architecture supports 16G hugepages but the kernel did not
support these. This patch series adds support for it and also cleanes
up some page walk/alloc functions.
Patch 1/3: Core changes needed to add 16G hugepage support: To map a
single 16G hugepage, two PUD entries are used. Each PUD entry maps
8G portion of a 16G page. This page table encoding scheme is same as
that used for hugepages at PMD level (8M, 256M and 2G pages) where
each PMD entry points successively to 8M regions within a page. No
page table entries below the PUD level are allocated for 16G
hugepage since those are not required.
TSB entries for a 16G page are created at every 4M boundary since
the HUGE_TSB is used for these pages which is configured with page
size of 4M. When walking page tables (on a TSB miss), bits [32:22]
are transferred from vaddr to PUD to resolve addresses at 4M
boundary. The resolved address mapping is then stored in HUGE_TSB.
Patch 2/3: get_user_pages() etc. are used for direct IO. These
functions were not aware of hugepages at the PUD level and would try
to continue walking page tables beyond the PUD level. Since 16G
hugepages have page tables allocated till PUD level only, these
accesses would result in invalid access. This patch adds the case
for PUD huge pages to these functions.
Patch 3/3: Patch 1 added the case of PUD entry being huge in page
table walk and alloc functions. This new case further increased
nesting in these functions and made them harder to follow. This
patch flattens these functions for better readability.
Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org
Chagenlog v6 vs v5:
- Move include of hvcalls.S after the trap table to avoid
overflowing previous space (Anthony)
Changelog v5 vs v4:
- Checking at PUD level for hugepage entry during page table walk is
patched out if 16GB hugepages are not being used.
Changelog v4 vs v3:
- Added cover letter (patch 0/4) for patch series.

There is not much difference in numbers with Un-aligned copies
between NG4memcpy and M7memcpy because they both mostly use the
same algorithems.
v2:
1. Fixed indentation issues found by David Miller
2. Used ENTRY and ENDPROC for the labels in M7patch.S as suggested by David Miller
3. Now M8 also will use M7memcpy. Also tested on M8 config.
4. These patches are created on top of below M8 patches
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/792661/
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/792662/
However, I did not see these patches in sparc-next tree. It may be in queue now.
It is possible these patches might cause some build problems. It will resolve
once all M8 patches are in sparc-next tree.

Commit dcd87999d415 ("igmp: net: Move igmp namespace init to correct file")
moved the igmp sysctls initialization from tcp_sk_init to igmp_net_init. This
function is only called as part of per-namespace initialization, only if
CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is defined, otherwise igmp_mc_init() call in ip_init is
compiled out, casuing the igmp pernet ops to not be registerd and those sysctl
being left initialized with 0. However, there are certain functions, such as
ip_mc_join_group which are always compiled and make use of some of those
sysctls. Let's do a partial revert of the aforementioned commit and move the
sysctl initialization into inet_init_net, that way they will always have
sane values.

When a link between two nodes come up, both endpoints will initially
send out a STATE message to the peer, to increase the probability that
the peer endpoint also is up when the first traffic message arrives.
Thereafter, if the establishing link is the second link between two
nodes, this first "traffic" message is a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL/SYNCH message,
helping the peer to perform initial synchronization between the two
links.
However, the initial STATE message may be lost, in which case the SYNCH
message will be the first one arriving at the peer. This should also
work, as the SYNCH message itself will be used to take up the link
endpoint before initializing synchronization.
Unfortunately the code for this case is broken. Currently, the link is
brought up through a tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) when a SYNCH
arrives, whereupon __tipc_node_link_up() is called to distribute the
link slots and take the link into traffic. But, __tipc_node_link_up() is
itself starting with a test for whether the link is up, and if true,
returns without action. Clearly, the tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) call
is unnecessary, since tipc_node_link_up() is itself issuing such an
event, but also harmful, since it inhibits tipc_node_link_up() to
perform the test of its tasks, and the link endpoint in question hence
is never taken into traffic.
This problem has been exposed when we set up dual links between pre-
and post-4.4 kernels, because the former ones don't send out the
initial STATE message described above.
We fix this by removing the unnecessary event call.

Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple
virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device.
Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux
sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it
cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic
at startup.
This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created
until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented.

sparc64: Use low latency path to resume idle cpu
CPU_POKE is a low latency path to resume the target cpu if suspended
using CPU_YIELD. Use CPU_POKE to resume cpu if supported by hypervisor.

This adds a new hypercall CPU_POKE for quickly waking up an idle CPU.
CPU_POKE should only be sent to valid non-local CPUs.

====================
sparc64: Add 16GB hugepage support
SPARC architecture supports 16G hugepages but the kernel did not
support these. This patch series adds support for it and also cleanes
up some page walk/alloc functions.
Patch 1/3: Core changes needed to add 16G hugepage support: To map a
single 16G hugepage, two PUD entries are used. Each PUD entry maps
8G portion of a 16G page. This page table encoding scheme is same as
that used for hugepages at PMD level (8M, 256M and 2G pages) where
each PMD entry points successively to 8M regions within a page. No
page table entries below the PUD level are allocated for 16G
hugepage since those are not required.
TSB entries for a 16G page are created at every 4M boundary since
the HUGE_TSB is used for these pages which is configured with page
size of 4M. When walking page tables (on a TSB miss), bits [32:22]
are transferred from vaddr to PUD to resolve addresses at 4M
boundary. The resolved address mapping is then stored in HUGE_TSB.
Patch 2/3: get_user_pages() etc. are used for direct IO. These
functions were not aware of hugepages at the PUD level and would try
to continue walking page tables beyond the PUD level. Since 16G
hugepages have page tables allocated till PUD level only, these
accesses would result in invalid access. This patch adds the case
for PUD huge pages to these functions.
Patch 3/3: Patch 1 added the case of PUD entry being huge in page
table walk and alloc functions. This new case further increased
nesting in these functions and made them harder to follow. This
patch flattens these functions for better readability.
Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org
Changelog v5 vs v4:
- Checking at PUD level for hugepage entry during page table walk is
patched out if 16GB hugepages are not being used.
Changelog v4 vs v3:
- Added cover letter (patch 0/4) for patch series.
Changelog v3 vs v2:
- Fixed email headers so the subject shows up correctly.

Adds support for 16GB hugepage size. To use this page size
use kernel parameters as:
default_hugepagesz=16G hugepagesz=16G hugepages=10
Testing:
Tested with the stream benchmark which allocates 48G of
arrays backed by 16G hugepages and does RW operation on
them in parallel.

get_user_pages() is used to do direct IO. It already
handles the case where the address range is backed
by PMD huge pages. This patch now adds the case where
the range could be backed by PUD huge pages.

Pull pin control fixes from Linus Walleij:
"These are the pin control fixes I have gathered since the return from
my vacation. They boiled in -next a while so let's get them in.
Apart from the documentation build it is purely driver fixes. Which is
nice. The Intel fixes seem kind of important.
- Fix the documentation build as the docs were moved
- Correct the UART pin list on the Intel Merrifield
- Fix pin assignment and number of pins on the Marvell Armada 37xx
pin controller
- Cover the Setzer models in the Chromebook DMI quirk in the Intel
cheryview driver so they start working
- Add the missing "sim" function to the sunxi driver
- Fix USB pin definitions on Uniphier Pro4
- Smatch fix for invalid reference in the zx pin control driver"
