KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TLB management on SMT8 POWER9 and POWER10 processors
The POWER9 vCPU TLB management code assumes all threads in a core share a TLB, and that TLBIEL execued by one thread will invalidate TLBs for all threads. This is not the case for SMT8 capable POWER9 and POWER10 (big core) processors, where the TLB is split between groups of threads. This results in TLB multi-hits, random data corruption, etc.
Fix this by introducing cpu_first_tlb_thread_sibling etc., to determine which siblings share TLBs, and use that in the guest TLB flushing code.

powerpc/topology: Override cpu_smt_mask
On Power9, a pair of SMT4 cores can be presented by the firmware as a SMT8 core for backward compatibility reasons, with the fusion of two SMT4 cores. Powerpc allows LPARs to be live migrated from Power8 to Power9. Existing software developed/configured for Power8, expects to see a SMT8 core.
In order to maintain userspace backward compatibility (with Power8 chips in case of Power9) in enterprise Linux systems, the topology_sibling_cpumask has to be set to SMT8 core.
cpu_smt_mask() should generally point to the cpu mask of the SMT4 core. Hence override the default cpu_smt_mask() to be powerpc specific allowing for better scheduling behaviour on Power.

powerpc: Detect the presence of big-cores via "ibm, thread-groups"
On IBM POWER9, the device tree exposes a property array identifed by "ibm,thread-groups" which will indicate which groups of threads share a particular set of resources.
As of today we only have one form of grouping identifying the group of threads in the core that share the L1 cache, translation cache and instruction data flow.
This patch adds helper functions to parse the contents of "ibm,thread-groups" and populate a per-cpu variable to cache information about siblings of each CPU that share the L1, traslation cache and instruction data-flow.
It also defines a new global variable named "has_big_cores" which indicates if the cores on this configuration have multiple groups of threads that share L1 cache.
For each online CPU, it maintains a cpu_smallcore_mask, which indicates the online siblings which share the L1-cache with it.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

powerpc: Fix cpu_online_cores_map to return only online threads mask
Currently, cpu_online_cores_map returns a mask, which for every core with at least one online thread, has the bit for thread 0 of the core set to 1, and the bits for all other threads of the core set to 0. But thread 0 of the core itself may not be online always. In such cases, if the returned mask is used for IPI, then it'll cause IPIs to be skipped on cores where the first thread is offline, because the IPI code refuses to send IPIs to offline threads.
Fix this by setting the bit of the first online thread in the core. This is done by fixing this in the underlying function cpu_thread_mask_to_cores.
The result has the property that for all cores with online threads, there is one bit set in the returned map. And further, all bits that are set in the returned map correspond to online threads.

On POWER8 we have a new concept of a subcore. This is what happens when you take a regular core and split it. A subcore is a grouping of two or four SMT threads, as well as a handfull of SPRs which allows the subcore to appear as if it were a core from the point of view of a guest.
Unlike threads_per_core which is fixed at boot, threads_per_subcore can change while the system is running. Most code will not want to use threads_per_subcore.

powerpc: Cleanup APIs for cpu/thread/core mappings
These APIs take logical cpu number as input Change cpu_first_thread_in_core() to cpu_first_thread_sibling() Change cpu_last_thread_in_core() to cpu_last_thread_sibling()
These APIs convert core number (index) to logical cpu/thread numbers Add cpu_first_thread_of_core(int core) Changed cpu_thread_to_core() to cpu_core_index_of_thread(int cpu)
The goal is to make 'threads_per_core' accessible to the pseries_energy module. Instead of making an API to read threads_per_core, this is a higher level wrapper function to convert from logical cpu number to core number.
The current APIs cpu_first_thread_in_core() and cpu_last_thread_in_core() returns logical CPU number while cpu_thread_to_core() returns core number or index which is not a logical CPU number. The new APIs are now clearly named to distinguish 'core number' versus first and last 'logical cpu number' in that core.
The new APIs cpu_{first,last}_thread_sibling() work on logical cpu numbers. While cpu_first_thread_of_core() and cpu_core_index_of_thread() work on core index.
Example usage: (4 threads per core system)
cpu_first_thread_sibling(5) = 4 cpu_last_thread_sibling(5) = 7 cpu_core_index_of_thread(5) = 1 cpu_first_thread_of_core(1) = 4
cpu_core_index_of_thread() is used in cpu_to_drc_index() in the module and cpu_first_thread_of_core() is used in drc_index_to_cpu() in the module.
Make API changes to few callers. Export symbols for use in modules.

powerpc/mm: Add HW threads support to no_hash TLB management
The current "no hash" MMU context management code is written with the assumption that one CPU == one TLB. This is not the case on implementations that support HW multithreading, where several linux CPUs can share the same TLB.
This adds some basic support for this to our context management and our TLB flushing code.
It also cleans up the optional debugging output a bit

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TLB management on SMT8 POWER9 and POWER10 processors [ Upstream commit 77bbbc0cf84834ed130838f7ac1988567f4d0288 ] The POWER9 vCPU TLB management code assumes all threads in a core share a TLB, and that TLBIEL execued by one thread will invalidate TLBs for all threads. This is not the case for SMT8 capable POWER9 and POWER10 (big core) processors, where the TLB is split between groups of threads. This results in TLB multi-hits, random data corruption, etc. Fix this by introducing cpu_first_tlb_thread_sibling etc., to determine which siblings share TLBs, and use that in the guest TLB flushing code.

powerpc/topology: Override cpu_smt_mask On Power9, a pair of SMT4 cores can be presented by the firmware as a SMT8 core for backward compatibility reasons, with the fusion of two SMT4 cores. Powerpc allows LPARs to be live migrated from Power8 to Power9. Existing software developed/configured for Power8, expects to see a SMT8 core. In order to maintain userspace backward compatibility (with Power8 chips in case of Power9) in enterprise Linux systems, the topology_sibling_cpumask has to be set to SMT8 core. cpu_smt_mask() should generally point to the cpu mask of the SMT4 core. Hence override the default cpu_smt_mask() to be powerpc specific allowing for better scheduling behaviour on Power. schbench (latency measured in usecs, so lesser is better) Without patch With patch Latency percentiles (usec) Latency percentiles (usec) 50.0000th: 34 50.0000th: 38 75.0000th: 47 75.0000th: 52 90.0000th: 54 90.0000th: 60 95.0000th: 57 95.0000th: 64 *99.0000th: 62 *99.0000th: 72 99.5000th: 65 99.5000th: 75 99.9000th: 76 99.9000th: 3452 min=0, max=9205 min=0, max=9344 schbench (With Cede disabled) Without patch With patch Latency percentiles (usec) Latency percentiles (usec) 50.0000th: 20 50.0000th: 21 75.0000th: 28 75.0000th: 29 90.0000th: 33 90.0000th: 34 95.0000th: 35 95.0000th: 37 *99.0000th: 40 *99.0000th: 40 99.5000th: 48 99.5000th: 42 99.9000th: 94 99.9000th: 79 min=0, max=791 min=0, max=791 perf bench sched pipe usec/ops : lesser is better Without patch N Min Max Median Avg Stddev 101 5.095113 5.595269 5.204842 5.2298776 0.10762713 5.10 - 5.15 : ################################################## 23% (24) 5.15 - 5.20 : ############################################# 21% (22) 5.20 - 5.25 : ################################################## 23% (24) 5.25 - 5.30 : ######################### 11% (12) 5.30 - 5.35 : ########## 4% (5) 5.35 - 5.40 : ######## 3% (4) 5.40 - 5.45 : ######## 3% (4) 5.45 - 5.50 : #### 1% (2) 5.50 - 5.55 : ## 0% (1) 5.55 - 5.60 : #### 1% (2) With patch N Min Max Median Avg Stddev 101 5.134675 8.524719 5.207658 5.2780985 0.34911969 5.1 - 5.5 : ################################################## 94% (95) 5.5 - 5.8 : ## 3% (4) 5.8 - 6.2 : 0% (1) 6.2 - 6.5 : 6.5 - 6.8 : 6.8 - 7.2 : 7.2 - 7.5 : 7.5 - 7.8 : 7.8 - 8.2 : 8.2 - 8.5 : perf bench sched pipe (cede disabled) usec/ops : lesser is better Without patch N Min Max Median Avg Stddev 101 7.884227 12.576538 7.956474 8.0170722 0.46159054 7.9 - 8.4 : ################################################## 99% (100) 8.4 - 8.8 : 8.8 - 9.3 : 9.3 - 9.8 : 9.8 - 10.2 : 10.2 - 10.7 : 10.7 - 11.2 : 11.2 - 11.6 : 11.6 - 12.1 : 12.1 - 12.6 : With patch N Min Max Median Avg Stddev 101 7.956021 8.217284 8.015615 8.0283866 0.049844967 7.96 - 7.98 : ###################### 12% (13) 7.98 - 8.01 : ################################################## 28% (29) 8.01 - 8.03 : #################################### 20% (21) 8.03 - 8.06 : ######################### 14% (15) 8.06 - 8.09 : ###################### 12% (13) 8.09 - 8.11 : ###### 3% (4) 8.11 - 8.14 : ### 1% (2) 8.14 - 8.17 : ### 1% (2) 8.17 - 8.19 : 8.19 - 8.22 : # 0% (1) Observations: With the patch, the initial run/iteration takes a slight longer time.

powerpc: Detect the presence of big-cores via "ibm, thread-groups" On IBM POWER9, the device tree exposes a property array identifed by "ibm,thread-groups" which will indicate which groups of threads share a particular set of resources. As of today we only have one form of grouping identifying the group of threads in the core that share the L1 cache, translation cache and instruction data flow. This patch adds helper functions to parse the contents of "ibm,thread-groups" and populate a per-cpu variable to cache information about siblings of each CPU that share the L1, traslation cache and instruction data-flow. It also defines a new global variable named "has_big_cores" which indicates if the cores on this configuration have multiple groups of threads that share L1 cache. For each online CPU, it maintains a cpu_smallcore_mask, which indicates the online siblings which share the L1-cache with it. Signed-off-by: Gautham R.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools
License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

powerpc: cputhreads: Add missing include file Powerpc builds may fail with the following build error. Error log: In file included from ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu_context.h:11:0, from ./include/linux/mmu_context.h:4, from mm/mmu_context.c:8: ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/cputhreads.h: In function 'get_tensr': ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/cputhreads.h:101:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'cpu_has_feature' The problem can be triggered by configuring ppc64e_defconfig and selecting CONFIG_TICK_CPU_ACCOUNTING instead of CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE.
