* powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module loadSteffen Rumler2012-06-081-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading a kernel module. According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame. In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call() (in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used to generate trampoline code. This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the .text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper. Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame using r11 can cause an oops. The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is safe from an EABI perspective. I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

* powerpc/time: Sanity check of decrementer expiration is necessaryPaul Mackerras2012-06-081-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check of decrementer expiration"). We do need to check whether we have reached the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in arch_irq_work_raise(). The effect of not having the sanity check is that if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest. This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

* | | powerpc: use clear_tasks_mm_cpumask()Anton Vorontsov2012-05-311-9/+2
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current CPU hotplug code has some task->mm handling issues: 1. Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough). We can't use get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep, so we must take the task lock while handle its mm. 2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a valid mm. To fix this we would need to use find_lock_task_mm(), which would walk up all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held). clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() has all the issues fixed, so let's use it.

So let's consolidate the generic code paths and only give the core specific SPR handling code readily made variables to read/write from/to.

While hrtimer uses the clockevent for DEC reprogramming (if needed) and which calculate timebase ticks using the multiplier and shifter mechanism implemented within clockevent layer. It was observed that this conversion (timebase->time->timebase) are not correct because the mechanism are not consistent. In our setup it adds 2% jitter. With this patch clockevent multiplier and shifter mechanism are used when starting hrtimer for decrementer emulation. Now the jitter is < 0.5%.

The magic page was is longer accessible in that case, causing the patched instructions in the RTAS call wrapper to crash. This fixes it by making available a 32-bit mapping of the magic page in that case. This mapping is flushed whenever we switch the kernel back to 64-bit mode.

While at it, also move the XOP variants of the above instructions to the new scheme of using the already known vaddr instead of calculating it themselves.

To work around this, we make sure that the PMU is inactive and SDAR updates are disabled (via MMCRA) when we are context-switching DABR. When the guest sets DABR via the H_SET_DABR hypercall, we use a slightly different workaround, which is to read back the DABR and write it again if it got corrupted. While we are at it, make it consistent that the saving and restoring of the guest's non-volatile GPRs and the FPRs are done with the guest setup of the PMU active.

Unfortunately this led to compile errors on Book 3S machines for configs that had KVM enabled but not CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV.
