commit 0db880fc865ffb522141ced4bfa66c12ab1fbb70 upstream.

nmi_enter()/nmi_exit() touches per cpu variables which can lead to kernel
crash when invoked during real mode interrupt handling (e.g. early HMI/MCE
interrupt handler) if percpu allocation comes from vmalloc area.

Early HMI/MCE handlers are called through DEFINE_INTERRUPT_HANDLER_NMI()
wrapper which invokes nmi_enter/nmi_exit calls. We don't see any issue when
percpu allocation is from the embedded first chunk. However with
CONFIG_NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK enabled there are chances where percpu
allocation can come from the vmalloc area.

With kernel command line "percpu_alloc=page" we can force percpu allocation
to come from vmalloc area and can see kernel crash in machine_check_early:

Fix this by avoiding use of nmi_enter()/nmi_exit() in real mode if percpu
first chunk is not embedded.

[ Upstream commit f8d3555355653848082c351fa90775214fb8a4fa ]

With CONFIG_GENERIC_BUG=n the build fails with:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:1442:5: error: no previous prototype for ‘is_valid_bugaddr’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
  1442 | int is_valid_bugaddr(unsigned long addr)

The prototype is only defined, and the function is only needed, when

commit 0e25498f8cd43c1b5aa327f373dd094e9a006da7 upstream.

There are two big uses of do_exit.  The first is it's design use to be
the guts of the exit(2) system call.  The second use is to terminate
a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer
in kernel code.

Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as
do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle
catastrophic failure.  In time this can probably be reduced to just a
light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so
that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new
concept.

Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic
task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code
is doing.

As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

<title>powerpc: Fix undetected data corruption with P9N DD2.1 VSX CI load emulation</title>

__get_user_atomic_128_aligned() stores to kaddr using stvx which is a
VMX store instruction, hence kaddr must be 16 byte aligned otherwise
the store won't occur as expected.

Unfortunately when we call __get_user_atomic_128_aligned() in
p9_hmi_special_emu(), the buffer we pass as kaddr (ie. vbuf) isn't
guaranteed to be 16B aligned. This means that the write to vbuf in
__get_user_atomic_128_aligned() has the bottom bits of the address
truncated. This results in other local variables being
overwritten. Also vbuf will not contain the correct data which results
in the userspace emulation being wrong and hence undetected user data
corruption.

In the past we've been mostly lucky as vbuf has ended up aligned but
this is fragile and isn't always true. CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR in
particular can change the stack arrangement enough that our luck runs
out.

This issue only occurs on POWER9 Nimbus &lt;= DD2.1 bare metal.

The fix is to align vbuf to a 16 byte boundary.

PowerPC 601 has been retired.

Remove all associated specific code.

CPU_FTRS_PPC601 has CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE and CPU_FTR_COMMON.

CPU_FTR_COMMON is already present via other CPU_FTRS.
None of the remaining CPU selects CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE.

So CPU_FTRS_PPC601 can be removed from the possible features,
hence can be removed completely.

All 32 and 64-bit builds that don't have CONFIG_TAU_INT enabled (all
of them), get a definition of TAUException() in traps.c.

On 64-bit it's completely useless, and just wastes ~120 bytes of text.
On 32-bit it allows the kernel to link because head_32.S calls it
unconditionally.

Instead follow the example of altivec_assist_exception(), and if
CONFIG_TAU_INT is not enabled just point it at unknown_exception using
the preprocessor.

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Support for userspace to send requests directly to the on-chip GZIP
   accelerator on Power9.

 - Rework of our lockless page table walking (__find_linux_pte()) to
   make it safe against parallel page table manipulations without
   relying on an IPI for serialisation.

 - A series of fixes &amp; enhancements to make our machine check handling
   more robust.

 - Lots of plumbing to add support for "prefixed" (64-bit) instructions
   on Power10.

 - Support for using huge pages for the linear mapping on 8xx (32-bit).

 - Remove obsolete Xilinx PPC405/PPC440 support, and an associated sound
   driver.

 - Removal of some obsolete 40x platforms and associated cruft.

 - Initial support for booting on Power10.

 - Lots of other small features, cleanups &amp; fixes.
