powerpc/mm: Don't alias user region to other regions below PAGE_OFFSET

2016-09-24T08:07:35+00:00

commit f077aaf0754bcba0fffdbd925bc12f09cd1e38aa upstream.

In commit c60ac5693c47 ("powerpc: Update kernel VSID range", 2013-03-13)
we lost a check on the region number (the top four bits of the effective
address) for addresses below PAGE_OFFSET.  That commit replaced a check
that the top 18 bits were all zero with a check that bits 46 - 59 were
zero (performed for all addresses, not just user addresses).

This means that userspace can access an address like 0x1000_0xxx_xxxx_xxxx
and we will insert a valid SLB entry for it.  The VSID used will be the
same as if the top 4 bits were 0, but the page size will be some random
value obtained by indexing beyond the end of the mm_ctx_high_slices_psize
array in the paca.  If that page size is the same as would be used for
region 0, then userspace just has an alias of the region 0 space.  If the
page size is different, then no HPTE will be found for the access, and
the process will get a SIGSEGV (since hash_page_mm() will refuse to create
a HPTE for the bogus address).

The access beyond the end of the mm_ctx_high_slices_psize can be at most
5.5MB past the array, and so will be in RAM somewhere.  Since the access
is a load performed in real mode, it won't fault or crash the kernel.
At most this bug could perhaps leak a little bit of information about
blocks of 32 bytes of memory located at offsets of i * 512kB past the
paca->mm_ctx_high_slices_psize array, for 1 <= i <= 11.

powerpc/mm: Fixup preempt underflow with huge pages

2016-04-20T06:41:53+00:00

commit 08a5bb2921e490939f78f38fd0d02858bb709942 upstream.

hugepd_free() used __get_cpu_var() once. Nothing ensured that the code
accessing the variable did not migrate from one CPU to another and soon
this was noticed by Tiejun Chen in 94b09d755462 ("powerpc/hugetlb:
Replace __get_cpu_var with get_cpu_var"). So we had it fixed.

Christoph Lameter was doing his __get_cpu_var() replaces and forgot
PowerPC. Then he noticed this and sent his fixed up batch again which
got applied as 69111bac42f5 ("powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses").

The careful reader will noticed one little detail: get_cpu_var() got
replaced with this_cpu_ptr(). So now we have a put_cpu_var() which does
a preempt_enable() and nothing that does preempt_disable() so we
underflow the preempt counter.

arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c: do not allocate bootmem memory for non existing nodes

2015-11-06T03:34:48+00:00

With the setup_nr_nodes(), we have already initialized
node_possible_map.  So it is safe to use for_each_node here.

There are many places in the kernel that use hardcoded 'for' loop with
nr_node_ids, because all other architectures have numa nodes populated
serially.  That should be reason we had maintained the same for
powerpc.

But, since sparse numa node ids possible on powerpc, we unnecessarily
allocate memory for non existent numa nodes.

For e.g., on a system with 0,1,16,17 as numa nodes nr_node_ids=18 and
we allocate memory for nodes 2-14.  This patch we allocate memory for
only existing numa nodes.

The patch is boot tested on a 4 node tuleta, confirming with printks
that it works as expected.

powerpc/e6500: hw tablewalk: make sure we invalidate and write to the same tlb entry

2015-10-27T23:14:40+00:00

In order to workaround Erratum A-008139, we have to invalidate the
tlb entry with tlbilx before overwriting. Due to the performance
consideration, we don't add any memory barrier when acquire/release
the tcd lock. This means the two load instructions for esel_next do
have the possibility to return different value. This is definitely
not acceptable due to the Erratum A-008139. We have two options to
fix this issue:
  a) Add memory barrier when acquire/release tcd lock to order the
     load/store to esel_next.
  b) Just make sure to invalidate and write to the same tlb entry and
     tolerate the race that we may get the wrong value and overwrite
     the tlb entry just updated by the other thread.

We observe better performance using option b. So reserve an additional
register to save the value of the esel_next.

powerpc/fsl-booke-64: Don't limit ppc64_rma_size to one TLB entry

2015-10-27T23:13:22+00:00

This is required for kdump to work when loaded at at an address that
does not fall within the first TLB entry -- which can easily happen
because while the lower limit is enforced via reserved memory, which
doesn't affect how much is mapped, the upper limit is enforced via a
different mechanism that does.  Thus, more TLB entries are needed than
would normally be used, as the total memory to be mapped might not be a
power of two.

powerpc/85xx: Load all early TLB entries at once

2015-10-23T03:50:46+00:00

Use an AS=1 trampoline TLB entry to allow all normal TLB1 entries to
be loaded at once.  This avoids the need to keep the translation that
code is executing from in the same TLB entry in the final TLB
configuration as during early boot, which in turn is helpful for
relocatable kernels (e.g. kdump) where the kernel is not running from
what would be the first TLB entry.

On e6500, we limit map_mem_in_cams() to the primary hwthread of a
core (the boot cpu is always considered primary, as a kdump kernel
can be entered on any cpu).  Each TLB only needs to be set up once,
and when we do, we don't want another thread to be running when we
create a temporary trampoline TLB1 entry.

powerpc/mm: Differentiate between hugetlb and THP during page walk

2015-10-12T04:30:09+00:00

We need to properly identify whether a hugepage is an explicit or
a transparent hugepage in follow_huge_addr(). We used to depend
on hugepage shift argument to do that. But in some case that can
result in wrong results. For ex:

On finding a transparent hugepage we set hugepage shift to PMD_SHIFT.
But we can end up clearing the thp pte, via pmdp_huge_get_and_clear.
We do prevent reusing the pfn page via the usage of
kick_all_cpus_sync(). But that happens after we updated the pte to 0.
Hence in follow_huge_addr() we can find hugepage shift set, but transparent
huge page check fail for a thp pte.

NOTE: We fixed a variant of this race against thp split in commit
691e95fd7396905a38d98919e9c150dbc3ea21a3
("powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapse")

Without this patch, we may hit the BUG_ON(flags & FOLL_GET) in
follow_page_mask occasionally.

In the long term, we may want to switch ppc64 64k page size config to
enable CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB
