The device-tree properties to check secure and trusted boot state are
different for guests (pseries) compared to baremetal (powernv).
This patch updates the existing is_ppc_secureboot_enabled() and
is_ppc_trustedboot_enabled() functions to add support for pseries.
For pseries the secureboot and trustedboot state are exposed via
device-tree properties /ibm,secure-boot and /ibm,trusted-boot.
The values of ibm,secure-boot under pseries are interpreted as:
0 - Disabled
1 - Enabled in Log-only mode. This patch interprets this value as
disabled, since audit mode is currently not supported for
Linux.
2 - Enabled and enforced.
3-9 - Enabled and enforcing; requirements are at the discretion of
the operating system.
The values of ibm,trusted-boot under pseries are interpreted as:
0 - Disabled
1 - Enabled

The code in vdso_cpu_init that exposes the cpu and numa node to
userspace via SPRG_VDSO incorrctly masks the cpu to 12 bits. This means
that any kernel running on a box with more than 4096 threads (NR_CPUS
advertises a limit of of 8192 cpus) would expose userspace to two cpu
contexts running at the same time with the same cpu number.
Note: I'm not aware of any distro shipping a kernel with support for more
than 4096 threads today, nor of any system image that currently exceeds
4096 threads. Found via code browsing.

When we enter into fadump crash path via system reset we fail to update
the pstore.
On the system reset path we first update the pstore then we go for fadump
crash. But the problem here is when all the CPUs try to get the pstore
lock to initiate the pstore write, only one CPUs will acquire the lock
and proceed with the pstore write. Since it in NMI context CPUs that fail
to get lock do not wait for their turn to write to the pstore and simply
proceed with the next operation which is fadump crash. One of the CPU who
proceeded with fadump crash path triggers the crash and does not wait for
the CPU who gets the pstore lock to complete the pstore update.
Timeline diagram to depicts the sequence of events that leads to an
unsuccessful pstore update when we hit fadump crash path via system reset.

Race: crash triggered before pstore

To avoid this race condition a barrier is added on crash_fadump path, it
prevents the CPU to trigger the crash until all the online CPUs completes
their task.
A barrier is added to make sure all the secondary CPUs hit the
crash_fadump function before we initiates the crash. A timeout is kept to
ensure the primary CPU (one who initiates the crash) do not wait for
secondary CPUs indefinitely.

Patch here adds a cpumask attr to hv_24x7 pmu along with ABI documentation.
Primary use to expose the cpumask is for the perf tool which has the
capability to parse the driver sysfs folder and understand the
cpumask file. Having cpumask file will reduce the number of perf command
line parameters (will avoid "-C" option in the perf tool
command line). It can also notify the user which is
the current cpu used to retrieve the counter data.

pseries_update_drconf_memory() runs from a DT notifier in response to
an update to the ibm,dynamic-memory property of the
/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node. This property is an older
less compact format than the ibm,dynamic-memory-v2 property used in
most currently supported firmwares. There has never been an equivalent
function for the v2 property.
pseries_update_drconf_memory() compares the 'assigned' flag for each
LMB in the old vs new properties and adds or removes the block
accordingly. However it appears to be of no actual utility:
* Partition suspension and PRRNs are specified only to change LMBs'
NUMA affinity information. This notifier should be a no-op for those
scenarios since the assigned flags should not change.
* The memory hotplug/DLPAR path has a hack which short-circuits
execution of the notifier:
dlpar_memory()
...
rtas_hp_event = true;
drmem_update_dt()
of_update_property()
pseries_memory_notifier()
pseries_update_drconf_memory()
if (rtas_hp_event) return;
So this code only makes sense as a relic of the time when more of the
DLPAR workflow took place in user space. I don't see a purpose for it
now.

prrn_is_enabled() always returns false/0, so handle_rtas_event() can
be simplified and some dead code can be removed. Use machine_is()
instead of #ifdef to run this code only on pseries, and add an
informational ratelimited message that we are ignoring the
events. PRRN events are relatively rare in normal operation and
usually arise from operator-initiated actions such as a DPO (Dynamic
Platform Optimizer) run.
Eventually we do want to consume these events and update the device
tree, but that needs more care to be safe vs LPM and DLPAR.

Partition suspension, used for hibernation and migration, requires
that the OS place all but one of the LPAR's processor threads into one
of two states prior to calling the ibm,suspend-me RTAS function:
* the architected offline state (via RTAS stop-self); or
* the H_JOIN hcall, which does not return until the partition
resumes execution
Using H_CEDE as the offline mode, introduced by
commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU into
an appropriate offline state"), means that any threads which are
offline from Linux's point of view must be moved to one of those two
states before a partition suspension can proceed.
This was eventually addressed in commit 120496ac2d2d ("powerpc: Bring
all threads online prior to migration/hibernation"), which added code
to temporarily bring up any offline processor threads so they can call
H_JOIN. Conceptually this is fine, but the implementation has had
multiple races with cpu hotplug operations initiated from user
space[1][2][3], the error handling is fragile, and it generates
user-visible cpu hotplug events which is a lot of noise for a platform
feature that's supposed to minimize disruption to workloads.
With commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU
into an appropriate offline state") reverted, this code becomes
unnecessary, so remove it. Since any offline CPUs now are truly
offline from the platform's point of view, it is no longer necessary
to bring up CPUs only to have them call H_JOIN and then go offline
again upon resuming. Only active threads are required to call H_JOIN;
stopped threads can be left alone.
[1] commit a6717c01ddc2 ("powerpc/rtas: use device model APIs and
serialization during LPM")
[2] commit 9fb603050ffd ("powerpc/rtas: retry when cpu offline races

This effectively reverts commit 3aa565f53c39 ("powerpc/pseries: Add
hooks to put the CPU into an appropriate offline state"), which added
an offline mode for CPUs which uses the H_CEDE hcall instead of the
architected stop-self RTAS function in order to facilitate "folding"
of dedicated mode processors on PowerVM platforms to achieve energy
savings. This has been the default offline mode since its
introduction.
There's nothing about stop-self that would prevent the hypervisor from
achieving the energy savings available via H_CEDE, so the original
premise of this change appears to be flawed.
I also have encountered the claim that the transition to and from
ceded state is much faster than stop-self/start-cpu. Certainly we
would not want to use stop-self as an *idle* mode. That is what H_CEDE
is for. However, this difference is insignificant in the context of
Linux CPU hotplug, where the latency of an offline or online operation
on current systems is on the order of 100ms, mainly attributable to
all the various subsystems' cpuhp callbacks.
The cede offline mode also prevents accurate accounting, as discussed
before:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/1571740391-3251-1-git-send-email-ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com/
Unconditionally use stop-self to offline processor threads. This is
the architected method for offlining CPUs on PAPR systems.
The "cede_offline" boot parameter is rendered obsolete.
Removing this code enables the removal of the partition suspend code
which temporarily onlines all present CPUs.

If both count cache and link stack are to be flushed, and can be flushed
with the special bcctr, patch that in directly to the flush/branch nop
site.

Branch cache flushing code patching has inter-dependencies on both the
link stack and the count cache flushing state.
To make the code clearer and to separate the link stack and count
cache handling, split the "toggle" (setting up variables and printing
enable/disable) from the code patching.

The count cache flush mostly refers to both count cache and link stack
flushing. As a first step to untangling these a bit, re-name the bits
that apply to both.

When a FP/VEC/VSX unavailable fault loads registers and enables the
facility in the MSR, re-set the lazy restore counters to 1 rather
than incrementing them so every fault gets the same number of
restores before the next fault.
This probably shouldn't be a practical change because if a lazy counter
was non-zero then it should have been restored and would not cause a
fault when userspace tries to access it. However the code and comment
implies otherwise so that's misleading and unnecessary.

Before returning to user, if there are missing FP/VEC/VSX bits from the
user MSR then those registers had been saved and must be restored again
before use. restore_math will decide whether to restore immediately, or
skip the restore and let fp/vec/vsx unavailable faults demand load the
registers.
Each time restore_math restores one of the FP/VSX or VEC register sets
is loaded, an 8-bit counter is incremented (load_fp and load_vec). When
these wrap to zero, restore_math no longer restores that register set
until after they are next demand faulted.
It's quite usual for those counters to have different values, so if one
wraps to zero and restore_math no longer restores its registers or user
MSR bit but the other is not zero yet does not need to be restored
(because the kernel is not frequently using the FPU), then restore_math
will be called and it will also not return in the early exit check.
This causes msr_check_and_set to test and set the MSR at every kernel
exit despite having no work to do.
This can cause workloads (e.g., a NULL syscall microbenchmark) to run
fast for a time while both counters are non-zero, then slow down when
one of the counters reaches zero, then speed up again after the second
counter reaches zero. The cost is significant, about 10% slowdown on a
NULL syscall benchmark, and the jittery behaviour is very undesirable.
Fix this by having restore_math test all conditions first, and only
update MSR if we will be loading registers.

The TM test in restore_math added by commit dc16b553c949e ("powerpc:
Always restore FPU/VEC/VSX if hardware transactional memory in use") is
no longer necessary after commit a8318c13e79ba ("powerpc/tm: Fix
restoring FP/VMX facility incorrectly on interrupts"), which removed
the cases where restore_math has to restore if TM is active.

With kernel now supporting new pmem flush/sync instructions, we can now
enable the kernel to initialize the device. On P10 these devices would
appear with a new compatible string. For PAPR device we have
compatible "ibm,pmemory-v2"
and for OF pmem device we have
compatible "pmem-region-v2"

Start using dcbstps; phwsync; sequence for flushing persistent memory range.
The new instructions are implemented as a variant of dcbf and hwsync and on
P8 and P9 they will be executed as those instructions. We avoid using them on
older hardware. This helps to avoid difficult to debug bugs.

POWER10 introduces two new variants of dcbf instructions (dcbstps and dcbfps)
that can be used to write modified locations back to persistent storage.
Additionally, POWER10 also introduce phwsync and plwsync which can be used
to establish order of these writes to persistent storage.
This patch exposes these instructions to the rest of the kernel. The existing
dcbf and hwsync instructions in P8 and P9 are adequate to enable appropriate
synchronization with OpenCAPI-hosted persistent storage. Hence the new
instructions are added as a variant of the old ones that old hardware
won't differentiate.

The PAPR based virtualized persistent memory devices are only supported on
POWER9 and above. In the followup patch, the kernel will switch the persistent
memory cache flush functions to use a new `dcbf` variant instruction. The new
instructions even though added in ISA 3.1 works even on P8 and P9 because these
are implemented as a variant of existing `dcbf` and `hwsync` and on P8 and
P9 behaves as such.
Considering these devices are only supported on P8 and above, update the driver
to prevent a P7-compat guest from using persistent memory devices.
We don't update of_pmem driver with the same condition, because, on bare-metal,
the firmware enables pmem support only on P9 and above. There the kernel depends
on OPAL firmware to restrict exposing persistent memory related device tree
entries on older hardware. of_pmem.ko is written without any arch dependency and
we don't want to add ppc64 specific cpu feature check in of_pmem driver.
