commit fc37a1632d40c80c067eb1bc235139f5867a2667 upstream.
PowerVM systems running compatibility mode on a few Power8 revisions are
still vulnerable to the hardware defect that loses PMU exceptions arriving
prior to a context switch.
The software fix for this issue is enabled through the CPU_FTR_PMAO_BUG
cpu_feature bit, nevertheless this bit also needs to be set for PowerVM
compatibility mode systems.

[ Upstream commit 23eb7f560a2a6a1b0dbaaaae8685da75314347e4 ]
Similar to commit 22e9c88d486a
("powerpc/64: reuse PPC32 static inline flush_dcache_range()")
this patch converts the following ASM symbols to C:
flush_icache_range()
__flush_dcache_icache()
__flush_dcache_icache_phys()
This was done as we discovered a long-standing bug where the length of the
range was truncated due to using a 32 bit shift instead of a 64 bit one.
By converting these functions to C, it becomes easier to maintain.
flush_dcache_icache_phys() retains a critical assembler section as we must
ensure there are no memory accesses while the data MMU is disabled
(authored by Christophe Leroy). Since this has no external callers, it has
also been made static, allowing the compiler to inline it within
flush_dcache_icache_page().

commit 2464cc4c345699adea52c7aef75707207cb8a2f6 upstream.
After a treclaim, we expect to be in non-transactional state. If we
don't clear the current thread's MSR[TS] before we get preempted, then
tm_recheckpoint_new_task() will recheckpoint and we get rescheduled in
suspended transaction state.
When handling a signal caught in transactional state,
handle_rt_signal64() calls get_tm_stackpointer() that treclaims the
transaction using tm_reclaim_current() but without clearing the
thread's MSR[TS]. This can cause the TM Bad Thing exception below if
later we pagefault and get preempted trying to access the user's
sigframe, using __put_user(). Afterwards, when we are rescheduled back
into do_page_fault() (but now in suspended state since the thread's
MSR[TS] was not cleared), upon executing 'rfid' after completion of
the page fault handling, the exception is raised because a transition
from suspended to non-transactional state is invalid.

The simplified sequence of events that triggers the above exception is:

handle_rt_signal64()
get_tm_stackpointer()
treclaim # kernelspace in NON-TRANSACTIONAL state
__put_user()
page fault happens. We will never get back here because of the TM Bad Thing exception.
page fault handling kicks in and we voluntarily preempt ourselves
do_page_fault()
__schedule()
__switch_to(other_task)
our task is rescheduled and we recheckpoint because the thread's MSR[TS] was not cleared
__switch_to(our_task)
switch_to_tm()
tm_recheckpoint_new_task()
trechkpt # kernelspace in SUSPENDED state
The page fault handling resumes, but now we are in suspended transaction state
do_page_fault() completes
rfid <----- trying to get back where the page fault happened (we were non-transactional back then)
TM Bad Thing # illegal transition from suspended to non-transactional
This patch fixes that issue by clearing the current thread's MSR[TS]
just after treclaim in get_tm_stackpointer() so that we stay in
non-transactional state in case we are preempted. In order to make
treclaim and clearing the thread's MSR[TS] atomic from a preemption
perspective when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set, preempt_disable/enable() is
used. It's also necessary to save the previous value of the thread's
MSR before get_tm_stackpointer() is called so that it can be exposed
to the signal handler later in setup_tm_sigcontexts() to inform the
userspace MSR at the moment of the signal delivery.
Found with tm-signal-context-force-tm kernel selftest.

commit d4f194ed9eb9841a8f978710e4d24296f791a85b upstream.
Recovering a dead PHB can currently cause a deadlock as the PCI
rescan/remove lock is taken twice.
This is caused as part of an existing bug in
eeh_handle_special_event(). The pe is processed while traversing the
PHBs even though the pe is unrelated to the loop. This causes the pe
to be, incorrectly, processed more than once.
Untangling this section can move the pe processing out of the loop and
also outside the locked section, correcting both problems.

[ Upstream commit 1fb4124ca9d456656a324f1ee29b7bf942f59ac8 ]
When disabling virtual functions on an SR-IOV adapter we currently do not
correctly remove the EEH state for the now-dead virtual functions. When
removing the pci_dn that was created for the VF when SR-IOV was enabled
we free the corresponding eeh_dev without removing it from the child device
list of the eeh_pe that contained it. This can result in crashes due to the
use-after-free.

[ Upstream commit 3b5b9997b331e77ce967eba2c4bc80dc3134a7fe ]
On pseries there is a bug with adding hotplugged devices to an IOMMU
group. For a number of dumb reasons fixing that bug first requires
re-working how VFs are configured on PowerNV. For background, on
PowerNV we use the pcibios_sriov_enable() hook to do two things:
1. Create a pci_dn structure for each of the VFs, and
2. Configure the PHB's internal BARs so the MMIO range for each VF
maps to a unique PE.
Roughly speaking a PE is the hardware counterpart to a Linux IOMMU
group since all the devices in a PE share the same IOMMU table. A PE
also defines the set of devices that should be isolated in response to
a PCI error (i.e. bad DMA, UR/CA, AER events, etc). When isolated all
MMIO and DMA traffic to and from devicein the PE is blocked by the
root complex until the PE is recovered by the OS.
The requirement to block MMIO causes a giant headache because the P8
PHB generally uses a fixed mapping between MMIO addresses and PEs. As
a result we need to delay configuring the IOMMU groups for device
until after MMIO resources are assigned. For physical devices (i.e.
non-VFs) the PE assignment is done in pcibios_setup_bridge() which is
called immediately after the MMIO resources for downstream
devices (and the bridge's windows) are assigned. For VFs the setup is
more complicated because:
a) pcibios_setup_bridge() is not called again when VFs are activated, and
b) The pci_dev for VFs are created by generic code which runs after
pcibios_sriov_enable() is called.
The work around for this is a two step process:
1. A fixup in pcibios_add_device() is used to initialised the cached
pe_number in pci_dn, then
2. A bus notifier then adds the device to the IOMMU group for the PE
specified in pci_dn->pe_number.
A side effect fixing the pseries bug mentioned in the first paragraph
is moving the fixup out of pcibios_add_device() and into
pcibios_bus_add_device(), which is called much later. This results in
step 2. failing because pci_dn->pe_number won't be initialised when
the bus notifier is run.
We can fix this by removing the need for the fixup. The PE for a VF is
known before the VF is even scanned so we can initialise
pci_dn->pe_number pcibios_sriov_enable() instead. Unfortunately,
moving the initialisation causes two problems:
1. We trip the WARN_ON() in the current fixup code, and
2. The EEH core clears pdn->pe_number when recovering a VF and
relies on the fixup to correctly re-set it.
The only justification for either of these is a comment in
eeh_rmv_device() suggesting that pdn->pe_number *must* be set to
IODA_INVALID_PE in order for the VF to be scanned. However, this
comment appears to have no basis in reality. Both bugs can be fixed by
just deleting the code.

commit 9933819099c4600b41a042f27a074470a43cf6b9 upstream.
Commit f7354ccac844 ("powerpc/32: Remove CURRENT_THREAD_INFO and
rename TI_CPU") broke the CPU wake-up from sleep mode (i.e. when
_TLF_SLEEPING is set) by delaying the tovirt(r2, r2).
This is because r2 is not restored by fast_exception_return. It used
to work (by chance ?) because CPU wake-up interrupt never comes from
user, so r2 is expected to point to 'current' on return.
Commit e2fb9f544431 ("powerpc/32: Prepare for Kernel Userspace Access
Protection") broke it even more by clobbering r0 which is not
restored by fast_exception_return either.
Use r6 instead of r0. This is possible because r3-r6 are restored by
fast_exception_return and only r3-r5 are used for exception arguments.
For r2 it could be converted back to virtual address, but stay on the
safe side and restore it from the stack instead. It should be live
in the cache at that moment, so loading from the stack should make
no difference compared to converting it from phys to virt.

commit 3b05a1e517e1a8cfda4866ec31d28b2bc4fee4c4 upstream.
"powerpc_security_features" is "unsigned long", i.e. 32-bit or 64-bit,
depending on the platform (PPC_FSL_BOOK3E or PPC_BOOK3S_64). Hence
casting its address to "u64 *", and calling debugfs_create_x64() is
wrong, and leaks 32-bit of nearby data to userspace on 32-bit platforms.
While all currently defined SEC_FTR_* security feature flags fit in
32-bit, they all have "ULL" suffixes to make them 64-bit constants.
Hence fix the leak by changing the type of "powerpc_security_features"
(and the parameter types of its accessors) to "u64". This also allows
to drop the cast.

[ Upstream commit 4e706af3cd8e1d0503c25332b30cad33c97ed442 ]
The issue was showing "Mitigation" message via sysfs whatever the
state of "RFI Flush", but it should show "Vulnerable" when it is
disabled.
If you have "L1D private" feature enabled and not "RFI Flush" you are
vulnerable to meltdown attacks.
"RFI Flush" is the key feature to mitigate the meltdown whatever the
"L1D private" state.
SEC_FTR_L1D_THREAD_PRIV is a feature for Power9 only.
So the message should be as the truth table shows:

P9 | False | True | Mitigation: RFI Flush
P9 | True | False | Vulnerable: L1D private per thread

[ Upstream commit 8e6b6da91ac9b9ec5a925b6cb13f287a54bd547d ]
Some PowerPC CPUs are vulnerable to L1TF to the same extent as to
Meltdown. It is also mitigated by flushing the L1D on privilege
transition.
Currently the sysfs gives a false negative on L1TF on CPUs that I
verified to be vulnerable, a Power9 Talos II Boston 004e 1202, PowerNV
T2P9D01.

commit 099bc4812f09155da77eeb960a983470249c9ce1 upstream.
Before commit 0366a1c70b89 ("powerpc/irq: Run softirqs off the top of
the irq stack"), check_stack_overflow() was called by do_IRQ(), before
switching to the irq stack.
In that commit, do_IRQ() was renamed __do_irq(), and is now executing
on the irq stack, so check_stack_overflow() has just become almost
useless.
Move check_stack_overflow() call in do_IRQ() to do the check while
still on the current stack.

[ Upstream commit 552263456215ada7ee8700ce022d12b0cffe4802 ]
clock_getres in the vDSO library has to preserve the same behaviour
of posix_get_hrtimer_res().
In particular, posix_get_hrtimer_res() does:
sec = 0;
ns = hrtimer_resolution;
and hrtimer_resolution depends on the enablement of the high
resolution timers that can happen either at compile or at run time.
Fix the powerpc vdso implementation of clock_getres keeping a copy of
hrtimer_resolution in vdso data and using that directly.

When calling flush_icache_range with a size >4GB, we were masking

commit af2e8c68b9c5403f77096969c516f742f5bb29e0 upstream.
On some systems that are vulnerable to Spectre v2, it is up to
software to flush the link stack (return address stack), in order to
protect against Spectre-RSB.
When exiting from a guest we do some house keeping and then
potentially exit to C code which is several stack frames deep in the
host kernel. We will then execute a series of returns without
preceeding calls, opening up the possiblity that the guest could have
poisoned the link stack, and direct speculative execution of the host
to a gadget of some sort.
To prevent this we add a flush of the link stack on exit from a guest.

commit 39e72bf96f5847ba87cc5bd7a3ce0fed813dc9ad upstream.
In commit ee13cb249fab ("powerpc/64s: Add support for software count
cache flush"), I added support for software to flush the count
cache (indirect branch cache) on context switch if firmware told us
that was the required mitigation for Spectre v2.
As part of that code we also added a software flush of the link
stack (return address stack), which protects against Spectre-RSB
between user processes.
That is all correct for CPUs that activate that mitigation, which is
currently Power9 Nimbus DD2.3.
What I got wrong is that on older CPUs, where firmware has disabled
the count cache, we also need to flush the link stack on context
switch.
To fix it we create a new feature bit which is not set by firmware,
which tells us we need to flush the link stack. We set that when
firmware tells us that either of the existing Spectre v2 mitigations
are enabled.
Then we adjust the patching code so that if we see that feature bit we
enable the link stack flush. If we're also told to flush the count
cache in software then we fall through and do that also.
On the older CPUs we don't need to do do the software count cache
flush, firmware has disabled it, so in that case we patch in an early
return after the link stack flush.
The naming of some of the functions is awkward after this patch,
because they're called "count cache" but they also do link stack. But
we'll fix that up in a later commit to ease backporting.
This is the fix for CVE-2019-18660.

On POWER9, under some circumstances, a broadcast TLB invalidation will
fail to invalidate the ERAT cache on some threads when there are
parallel mtpidr/mtlpidr happening on other threads of the same core.
This can cause stores to continue to go to a page after it's unmapped.
The workaround is to force an ERAT flush using PID=0 or LPID=0 tlbie
flush. This additional TLB flush will cause the ERAT cache
invalidation. Since we are using PID=0 or LPID=0, we don't get
filtered out by the TLB snoop filtering logic.
We need to still follow this up with another tlbie to take care of
store vs tlbie ordering issue explained in commit:
a5d4b5891c2f ("powerpc/mm: Fixup tlbie vs store ordering issue on
POWER9"). The presence of ERAT cache implies we can still get new
stores and they may miss store queue marking flush.

The store ordering vs tlbie issue mentioned in commit
a5d4b5891c2f ("powerpc/mm: Fixup tlbie vs store ordering issue on
POWER9") is fixed for Nimbus 2.3 and Cumulus 1.3 revisions. We don't
need to apply the fixup if we are running on them
We can only do this on PowerNV. On pseries guest with KVM we still
don't support redoing the feature fixup after migration. So we should
be enabling all the workarounds needed, because whe can possibly
migrate between DD 2.3 and DD 2.2

On a 2-socket Power9 system with 32 cores/128 threads (SMT4) and 1TB
of memory running the following guest configs:
guest A:
- 224GB of memory
- 56 VCPUs (sockets=1,cores=28,threads=2), where:
VCPUs 0-1 are pinned to CPUs 0-3,
VCPUs 2-3 are pinned to CPUs 4-7,
...
VCPUs 54-55 are pinned to CPUs 108-111
guest B:
- 4GB of memory
- 4 VCPUs (sockets=1,cores=4,threads=1)
with the following workloads (with KSM and THP enabled in all):
guest A:
stress --cpu 40 --io 20 --vm 20 --vm-bytes 512M
guest B:
stress --cpu 4 --io 4 --vm 4 --vm-bytes 512M
host:
stress --cpu 4 --io 4 --vm 2 --vm-bytes 256M
the below soft-lockup traces were observed after an hour or so and
persisted until the host was reset (this was found to be reliably
reproducible for this configuration, for kernels 4.15, 4.18, 5.0,
and 5.3-rc5):

It was subsequently found that ipi_message[PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNCTION]
was set for CPU 42 by at least 1 of the CPUs waiting in
smp_call_function_many(), but somehow the corresponding
call_single_queue entries were never processed by CPU 42, causing the
callers to spin in csd_lock_wait() indefinitely.
Nick Piggin suggested something similar to the following sequence as
a possible explanation (interleaving of CALL_FUNCTION/RESCHEDULE
IPI messages seems to be most common, but any mix of CALL_FUNCTION and
!CALL_FUNCTION messages could trigger it):
CPU
X: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message():
X: smp_mb()
X: message[RESCHEDULE] = 1
X: doorbell_global_ipi(42):
X: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1)
X: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb()
X: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42
42: doorbell_exception(): // from CPU X
42: ppc_msgsync()
105: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message():
105: smb_mb()
// STORE DEFERRED DUE TO RE-ORDERING
--105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1
| 105: doorbell_global_ipi(42):
| 105: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1)
| 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0)
| 42: smp_ipi_demux_relaxed()
| 42: // returns to executing guest
| // RE-ORDERED STORE COMPLETES
->105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1
105: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb()
105: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42
42: local_paca->kvm_hstate.host_ipi == 0 // IPI ignored
105: // hangs waiting on 42 to process messages/call_single_queue
This can be prevented with an smp_mb() at the beginning of
kvmppc_set_host_ipi(), such that stores to message[<type>] (or other
state indicated by the host_ipi flag) are ordered vs. the store to
to host_ipi.
However, doing so might still allow for the following scenario (not
yet observed):
CPU
X: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message():
X: smp_mb()
X: message[RESCHEDULE] = 1
X: doorbell_global_ipi(42):
X: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1)
X: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb()
X: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42
42: doorbell_exception(): // from CPU X
42: ppc_msgsync()
// STORE DEFERRED DUE TO RE-ORDERING
-- 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0)
| 42: smp_ipi_demux_relaxed()
| 105: smp_muxed_ipi_set_message():
| 105: smb_mb()
| 105: message[CALL_FUNCTION] = 1
| 105: doorbell_global_ipi(42):
| 105: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 1)
| // RE-ORDERED STORE COMPLETES
-> 42: kvmppc_set_host_ipi(42, 0)
42: // returns to executing guest
105: ppc_msgsnd_sync()/smp_mb()
105: ppc_msgsnd() -> 42
42: local_paca->kvm_hstate.host_ipi == 0 // IPI ignored
105: // hangs waiting on 42 to process messages/call_single_queue
Fixing this scenario would require an smp_mb() *after* clearing
host_ipi flag in kvmppc_set_host_ipi() to order the store vs.
subsequent processing of IPI messages.
To handle both cases, this patch splits kvmppc_set_host_ipi() into
separate set/clear functions, where we execute smp_mb() prior to
setting host_ipi flag, and after clearing host_ipi flag. These
functions pair with each other to synchronize the sender and receiver
sides.
With that change in place the above workload ran for 20 hours without
triggering any lock-ups.

Currently the reserved bits of the Processor Compatibility
Register (PCR) are cleared as per the Programming Note in Section
1.3.3 of version 3.0B of the Power ISA. This causes all new
architecture features to be made available when running on newer
processors with new architecture features added to the PCR as bits
must be set to disable a given feature.
For example to disable new features added as part of Version 2.07 of
the ISA the corresponding bit in the PCR needs to be set.
As new processor features generally require explicit kernel support
they should be disabled until such support is implemented. Therefore
kernels should set all unknown/reserved bits in the PCR such that any
new architecture features which the kernel does not currently know
about get disabled.
An update is planned to the ISA to clarify that the PCR is an
exception to the Programming Note on reserved bits in Section 1.3.3.
