Make the following functions generic to all platforms.
- bad_kuap_fault()
- kuap_assert_locked()
- kuap_save_and_lock() (PPC32 only)
- kuap_kernel_restore()
- kuap_get_and_assert_locked()
And for all platforms except book3s/64
- allow_user_access()
- prevent_user_access()
- prevent_user_access_return()
- restore_user_access()
Prepend __ in front of the name of platform specific ones.
For now the generic just calls the platform specific, but
next patch will move redundant parts of specific functions
into the generic one.

Calling 'mfsr' to get the content of segment registers is heavy,
in addition it requires clearing of the 'reserved' bits.
In order to avoid this operation, save it in mm context and in
thread struct.
The saved sr0 is the one used by kernel, this means that on
locking entry it can be used as is.
For unlocking, the only thing to do is to clear SR_NX.
This improves null_syscall selftest by 12 cycles, ie 4%.

When interrupt and syscall entries where converted to C, KUEP locking
and unlocking was also converted. It improved performance by unrolling
the loop, and allowed easily implementing boot time deactivation of
KUEP.
However, null_syscall selftest shows that KUEP is still heavy
(361 cycles with KUEP, 212 cycles without).
A way to improve more is to group 'mtsr's together, instead of
repeating 'addi' + 'mtsr' several times.
In order to do that, more registers need to be available. In C, GCC
will always be able to provide the requested number of registers, but
at the cost of saving some data on the stack, which is counter
performant here.
So let's do it in assembly, when we have full control of which
register can be used. It also has the advantage of locking earlier
and unlocking later and it helps GCC generating less tricky code.
The only drawback is to make boot time deactivation less straight
forward and require 'hand' instruction patching.
Group 'mtsr's by 4.
With this change, null_syscall selftest reports 336 cycles. Without
the change it was 361 cycles, that's a 7% reduction.

This reverts commit 1791ebd131.
setup_kup() was inlined to manage conflict between PPC32 marking
setup_{kuap/kuep}() __init and PPC64 not marking them __init.
But in fact PPC32 has removed the __init mark for all but 8xx
in order to properly handle SMP.
In order to make setup_kup() grow a bit, revert the commit
mentioned above but remove __init for 8xx as well so that
we don't have to mark setup_kup() as __ref.
Also switch the order so that KUAP is initialised before KUEP
because on the 40x, KUEP will depend on the activation of KUAP.

Do not define/reference kvm_vcpu.wait if __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_WQP is true, and
instead force the architecture (PPC) to define its own rcuwait object.
Allowing common KVM to directly access vcpu->wait without a guard makes
it all too easy to introduce potential bugs, e.g. kvm_vcpu_block(),
kvm_vcpu_on_spin(), and async_pf_execute() all operate on vcpu->wait, not
the result of kvm_arch_vcpu_get_wait(), and so may do the wrong thing for
PPC.
Due to PPC's shenanigans with respect to callbacks and waits (it switches
to the virtual core's wait object at KVM_RUN!?!?), it's not clear whether
or not this fixes any bugs.

Pass the "old" slot to kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region() and force arch
code to handle propagating arch specific data from "new" to "old" when
necessary. This is a baby step towards dynamically allocating "new" from
the get go, and is a (very) minor performance boost on x86 due to not
unnecessarily copying arch data.
For PPC HV, copy the rmap in the !CREATE and !DELETE paths, i.e. for MOVE
and FLAGS_ONLY. This is functionally a nop as the previous behavior
would overwrite the pointer for CREATE, and eventually discard/ignore it
for DELETE.
For x86, copy the arch data only for FLAGS_ONLY changes. Unlike PPC HV,
x86 needs to reallocate arch data in the MOVE case as the size of x86's
allocations depend on the alignment of the memslot's gfn.
Opportunistically tweak kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region()'s param order to
match the "commit" prototype.

The printk header file includes ratelimit_types.h for its __ratelimit()
based usage. It is required for the static initializer used in
printk_ratelimited(). It uses a raw_spinlock_t and includes the
spinlock_types.h.
PREEMPT_RT substitutes spinlock_t with a rtmutex based implementation and so
its spinlock_t implmentation (provided by spinlock_rt.h) includes rtmutex.h and
atomic.h which leads to recursive includes where defines are missing.
By including only the raw_spinlock_t defines it avoids the atomic.h
related includes at this stage.

Running perf fuzzer showed below in dmesg logs:
"Can't find PMC that caused IRQ"
This means a PMU exception happened, but none of the PMC's (Performance
Monitor Counter) were found to be overflown. There are some corner cases
that clears the PMCs after PMI gets masked. In such cases, the perf
interrupt handler will not find the active PMC values that had caused
the overflow and thus leads to this message while replaying.
Case 1: PMU Interrupt happens during replay of other interrupts and
counter values gets cleared by PMU callbacks before replay:
During replay of interrupts like timer, __do_irq() and doorbell
exception, we conditionally enable interrupts via may_hard_irq_enable().
This could potentially create a window to generate a PMI. Since irq soft
mask is set to ALL_DISABLED, the PMI will get masked here. We could get
IPIs run before perf interrupt is replayed and the PMU events could
be deleted or stopped. This will change the PMU SPR values and resets
the counters. Snippet of ftrace log showing PMU callbacks invoked in

Case 2: PMI's masked during local_* operations, example local_add(). If
the local_add() operation happens within a local_irq_save(), replay of
PMI will be during local_irq_restore(). Similar to case 1, this could
also create a window before replay where PMU events gets deleted or
stopped.
Fix it by updating the PMU callback function power_pmu_disable() to
check for pending perf interrupt. If there is an overflown PMC and
pending perf interrupt indicated in paca, clear the PMI bit in paca to
drop that sample. Clearing of PMI bit is done in power_pmu_disable()
since disable is invoked before any event gets deleted/stopped. With
this fix, if there are more than one event running in the PMU, there is
a chance that we clear the PMI bit for the event which is not getting
deleted/stopped. The other events may still remain active. Hence to make
sure we don't drop valid sample in such cases, another check is added in
power_pmu_enable. This checks if there is an overflown PMC found among
the active events and if so enable back the PMI bit. Two new helper
functions are introduced to clear/set the PMI, ie
clear_pmi_irq_pending() and set_pmi_irq_pending(). Helper function
pmi_irq_pending() is introduced to give a warning if there is pending
PMI bit in paca, but no PMC is overflown.
Also there are corner cases which result in performance monitor
interrupts being triggered during power_pmu_disable(). This happens
since PMXE bit is not cleared along with disabling of other MMCR0 bits
in the pmu_disable. Such PMI's could leave the PMU running and could
trigger PMI again which will set MMCR0 PMAO bit. This could lead to
spurious interrupts in some corner cases. Example, a timer after
power_pmu_del() which will re-enable interrupts and triggers a PMI again
since PMAO bit is still set. But fails to find valid overflow since PMC
was cleared in power_pmu_del(). Fix that by disabling PMXE along with
disabling of other MMCR0 bits in power_pmu_disable().
We can't just replay PMI any time. Hence this approach is preferred
rather than replaying PMI before resetting overflown PMC. Patch also
documents core-book3s on a race condition which can trigger these PMC
messages during idle path in PowerNV.

On 64 bits we don't have any equivalent single operation for clearing,
single bits or a few bits, we'd need two 'rldicl' so it is not

Generally RTAS cannot block, and in PAPR it is required to return control
to the OS within a few tens of microseconds. In order to support operations
which may take longer to complete, many RTAS primitives can return
intermediate -2 ("busy") or 990x ("extended delay") values, which indicate
that the OS should reattempt the same call with the same arguments at some
point in the future.
Current versions of PAPR are less than clear about this, but the intended
meanings of these values in more detail are:
RTAS_BUSY (-2): RTAS has suspended a potentially long-running operation in
order to meet its latency obligation and give the OS the opportunity to
perform other work. RTAS can resume making progress as soon as the OS
reattempts the call.
RTAS_EXTENDED_DELAY_{MIN...MAX} (9900-9905): RTAS must wait for an external
event to occur or for internal contention to resolve before it can complete
the requested operation. The value encodes a non-binding hint as to roughly
how long the OS should wait before calling again, but the OS is allowed to
reattempt the call sooner or even immediately.
Linux of course must take its own CPU scheduling obligations into account
when handling these statuses; e.g. a task which receives an RTAS_BUSY
status should check whether to reschedule before it attempts the RTAS call
again to avoid starving other tasks.
rtas_busy_delay() is a helper function that "consumes" a busy or extended
delay status. Common usage:
int rc;
do {
rc = rtas_call(rtas_token("some-function"), ...);
} while (rtas_busy_delay(rc));
/* convert rc to Linux error value, etc */
If rc is a busy or extended delay status, the caller can rely on
rtas_busy_delay() to perform an appropriate sleep or reschedule and return
nonzero. Other statuses are handled normally by the caller.
The current implementation of rtas_busy_delay() both oversleeps and
overuses the CPU:
* It performs msleep() for all 990x and even when no delay is
suggested (-2), but this is understood to actually sleep for two jiffies
minimum in practice (20ms with HZ=100). 9900 (1ms) and 9901 (10ms)
appear to be the most common extended delay statuses, and the
oversleeping measurably lengthens DLPAR operations, which perform
many RTAS calls.
* It does not sleep on 990x unless need_resched() is true, causing code
like the loop above to needlessly retry, wasting CPU time.
Alter the logic to align better with the intended meanings:
* When passed RTAS_BUSY, perform cond_resched() and return without
sleeping. The caller should reattempt immediately
* Always sleep when passed an extended delay status, using usleep_range()
for precise shorter sleeps. Limit the sleep time to one second even
though there are higher architected values.
Change rtas_busy_delay()'s return type to bool to better reflect its usage,
and add kernel-doc.
rtas_busy_delay_time() is unchanged, even though it "incorrectly" returns 1
for RTAS_BUSY. There are users of that API with open-coded delay loops in
sensitive contexts that will have to be taken on an individual basis.
Brief results for addition and removal of 5GB memory on a small P9 PowerVM
partition follow. Load was generated with stress-ng --cpu N. For add,
elapsed time is greatly reduced without significant change in the number of
RTAS calls or time spent on CPU. For remove, elapsed time is modestly
reduced, with significant reductions in RTAS calls and time spent on CPU.

StoreEOI (the capability to EOI with a store) requires load-after-store
ordering in some cases to be reliable. P10 introduced a new offset for
load operations to enforce correct ordering and the XIVE driver has
the required support since kernel 5.8, commit b1f9be9392
("powerpc/xive: Enforce load-after-store ordering when StoreEOI is active")
Since skiboot v7, StoreEOI support is advertised on P10 with a new flag
on the PowerNV platform. See skiboot commit 4bd7d84afe46 ("xive/p10:
Introduce a new OPAL_XIVE_IRQ_STORE_EOI2 flag"). When detected,
activate the feature.

On POWER9 and newer, rather than the complex HMI synchronisation and
subcore state, have each thread un-apply the guest TB offset before
calling into the early HMI handler.
This allows the subcore state to be avoided, including subcore enter
/ exit guest, which includes an expensive divide that shows up
slightly in profiles.

cpu_in_guest is set to determine if a CPU needs to be IPI'ed to exit
the guest and notice the need_tlb_flush bit.
This can be implemented as a global per-CPU pointer to the currently
running guest instead of per-guest cpumasks, saving 2 atomics per
entry/exit. P7/8 doesn't require cpu_in_guest, nor does a nested HV
(only the L0 does), so move it to the P9 HV path.

mftb() is expensive and one can be avoided on nested guest dispatch.
If the time checking code distinguishes between the L0 timer and the
nested HV timer, then both can be tested in the same place with the
same mftb() value.
This also nicely illustrates the relationship between the L0 and nested
HV timers.

Linux implements SPR save/restore including storage space for registers
in the task struct for process context switching. Make use of this
similarly to the way we make use of the context switching fp/vec save
restore.
This improves code reuse, allows some stack space to be saved, and helps
with avoiding VRSAVE updates if they are not required.

Use HFSCR facility disabling to implement demand faulting for TM, with
a hysteresis counter similar to the load_fp etc counters in context
switching that implement the equivalent demand faulting for userspace
facilities.
This speeds up guest entry/exit by avoiding the register save/restore
when a guest is not frequently using them. When a guest does use them
often, there will be some additional demand fault overhead, but these
are not commonly used facilities.

Rather than have KVM look up the host timer and fiddle with the
irq-work internal details, have the powerpc/time.c code provide a
function for KVM to re-arm the Linux timer code when exiting a
guest.
This is implementation has an improvement over existing code of
marking a decrementer interrupt as soft-pending if a timer has
expired, rather than setting DEC to a -ve value, which tended to
cause host timers to take two interrupts (first hdec to exit the
guest, then the immediate dec).
