Subject: powerpc/64s: Add support for RFI flush of L1-D cache
From: Michael Ellerman <mpe(a)ellerman.id.au>
commit aa8a5e0062ac940f7659394f4817c948dc8c0667 upstream.
On some CPUs we can prevent the Meltdown vulnerability by flushing the
L1-D cache on exit from kernel to user mode, and from hypervisor to
guest.
This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9. At
this time we do not know the status of the vulnerability on other CPUs
such as the 970 (Apple G5), pasemi CPUs (AmigaOne X1000) or Freescale
CPUs. As more information comes to light we can enable this, or other
mechanisms on those CPUs.
The vulnerability occurs when the load of an architecturally
inaccessible memory region (eg. userspace load of kernel memory) is
speculatively executed to the point where its result can influence the
address of a subsequent speculatively executed load.
In order for that to happen, the first load must hit in the L1,
because before the load is sent to the L2 the permission check is
performed. Therefore if no kernel addresses hit in the L1 the
vulnerability can not occur. We can ensure that is the case by
flushing the L1 whenever we return to userspace. Similarly for
hypervisor vs guest.
In order to flush the L1-D cache on exit, we add a section of nops at
each (h)rfi location that returns to a lower privileged context, and
patch that with some sequence. Newer firmwares are able to advertise
to us that there is a special nop instruction that flushes the L1-D.
If we do not see that advertised, we fall back to doing a displacement
flush in software.
For guest kernels we support migration between some CPU versions, and
different CPUs may use different flush instructions. So that we are
prepared to migrate to a machine with a different flush instruction
activated, we may have to patch more than one flush instruction at
boot if the hypervisor tells us to.
In the end this patch is mostly the work of Nicholas Piggin and
Michael Ellerman. However a cast of thousands contributed to analysis
of the issue, earlier versions of the patch, back ports testing etc.
Many thanks to all of them.

Subject: powerpc/64: Convert the syscall exit path to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin(a)gmail.com>
commit b8e90cb7bc04a509e821e82ab6ed7a8ef11ba333 upstream.
In the syscall exit path we may be returning to user or kernel
context. We already have a test for that, because we conditionally
restore r13. So use that existing test and branch, and bifurcate the
return based on that.

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin(a)gmail.com>
commit a08f828cf47e6c605af21d2cdec68f84e799c318 upstream.
Similar to the syscall return path, in fast_exception_return we may be

because we conditionally restore r13. So use that existing test and

Subject: powerpc/64: Add macros for annotating the destination of rfid/hrfid
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin(a)gmail.com>
commit 50e51c13b3822d14ff6df4279423e4b7b2269bc3 upstream.
The rfid/hrfid ((Hypervisor) Return From Interrupt) instruction is
used for switching from the kernel to userspace, and from the
hypervisor to the guest kernel. However it can and is also used for
other transitions, eg. from real mode kernel code to virtual mode
kernel code, and it's not always clear from the code what the
destination context is.
To make it clearer when reading the code, add macros which encode the
expected destination context.

Subject: powerpc: Simplify module TOC handling
From: Alan Modra <amodra(a)gmail.com>
commit c153693d7eb9eeb28478aa2deaaf0b4e7b5ff5e9 upstream.
PowerPC64 uses the symbol .TOC. much as other targets use
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. It identifies the value of the GOT pointer (or in
powerpc parlance, the TOC pointer). Global offset tables are generally
local to an executable or shared library, or in the kernel, module. Thus
it does not make sense for a module to resolve a relocation against
.TOC. to the kernel's .TOC. value. A module has its own .TOC., and
indeed the powerpc64 module relocation processing ignores the kernel
value of .TOC. and instead calculates a module-local value.
This patch removes code involved in exporting the kernel .TOC., tweaks
modpost to ignore an undefined .TOC., and the module loader to twiddle
the section symbol so that .TOC. isn't seen as undefined.
Note that if the kernel was compiled with -msingle-pic-base then ELFv2
would not have function global entry code setting up r2. In that case
the module call stubs would need to be modified to set up r2 using the
kernel .TOC. value, requiring some of this code to be reinstated.
mpe: Furthermore a change in binutils master (not yet released) causes
the current way we handle the TOC to no longer work when building with
MODVERSIONS=y and RELOCATABLE=n. The symptom is that modules can not be
loaded due to there being no version found for TOC.

Subject: powerpc/bpf/jit: Disable classic BPF JIT on ppc64le
From: Naveen N. Rao <naveen.n.rao(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
commit 844e3be47693f92a108cb1fb3b0606bf25e9c7a6 upstream.
Classic BPF JIT was never ported completely to work on little endian
powerpc. However, it can be enabled and will crash the system when used.
As such, disable use of BPF JIT on ppc64le.
Fixes: 7c105b63bd98 ("powerpc: Add CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN kernel config option.")

Subject: powerpc: Fix VSX enabling/flushing to also test MSR_FP and MSR_VEC
From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh(a)kernel.crashing.org>
commit 5a69aec945d27e78abac9fd032533d3aaebf7c1e upstream.
VSX uses a combination of the old vector registers, the old FP
registers and new "second halves" of the FP registers.
Thus when we need to see the VSX state in the thread struct
(flush_vsx_to_thread()) or when we'll use the VSX in the kernel
(enable_kernel_vsx()) we need to ensure they are all flushed into
the thread struct if either of them is individually enabled.
Unfortunately we only tested if the whole VSX was enabled, not if they
were individually enabled.
Fixes: 72cd7b44bc99 ("powerpc: Uncomment and make enable_kernel_vsx() routine available")
