powerpc/64: vmlinux support building with PCREL addresing

PC-Relative or PCREL addressing is an extension to the ELF ABI which
uses Power ISA v3.1 PC-relative instructions to calculate addresses,
rather than the traditional TOC scheme.

Add an option to build vmlinux using pcrel addressing. Modules continue
to use TOC addressing.

- TOC address helpers and r2 are poisoned with -1 when running vmlinux.
r2 could be used for something useful once things are ironed out.

- Assembly must call C functions with @notoc annotation, or the linker
complains aobut a missing nop after the call. This is done with the
CFUNC macro introduced earlier.

- Boot: with the exception of prom_init, the execution branches to the
kernel virtual address early in boot, before any addresses are
generated, which ensures 34-bit pcrel addressing does not miss the
high PAGE_OFFSET bits. TOC relative addressing has a similar
requirement. prom_init does not go to the virtual address and its
addresses should not carry over to the post-prom kernel.

- Ftrace trampolines are converted from TOC addressing to pcrel
addressing, including module ftrace trampolines that currently use the
kernel TOC to find ftrace target functions.

- BPF function prologue and function calling generation are converted
from TOC to pcrel.

- copypage_64.S has an interesting problem, prefixed instructions have
alignment restrictions so the linker can add padding, which makes the
assembler treat the difference between two local labels as
non-constant even if alignment is arranged so padding is not required.
This may need toolchain help to solve nicely, for now move the prefix
instruction out of the alternate patch section to work around it.

This reduces kernel text size by about 6%.

Revert "powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call"

At the time this was submitted by Leonardo, I confirmed -- or thought
I had confirmed -- with PowerVM partition firmware development that
the following RTAS functions:

- ibm,get-xive
- ibm,int-off
- ibm,int-on
- ibm,set-xive

were safe to call on multiple CPUs simultaneously, not only with
respect to themselves as indicated by PAPR, but with arbitrary other
RTAS calls:

https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/875zcy2v8o.fsf@linux.ibm.com/

Recent discussion with firmware development makes it clear that this
is not true, and that the code in commit b664db8e3f97 ("powerpc/rtas:
Implement reentrant rtas call") is unsafe, likely explaining several
strange bugs we've seen in internal testing involving DLPAR and
LPM. These scenarios use ibm,configure-connector, whose internal state
can be corrupted by the concurrent use of the "reentrant" functions,
leading to symptoms like endless busy statuses from RTAS.

powerpc: Avoid broken GCC __attribute__((optimize))

Commit 7053f80d9696 ("powerpc/64: Prevent stack protection in early
boot") introduced a couple of uses of __attribute__((optimize)) with
function scope, to disable the stack protector in some early boot
code.

Unfortunately, and this is documented in the GCC man pages [0],
overriding function attributes for optimization is broken, and is only
supported for debug scenarios, not for production: the problem appears
to be that setting GCC -f flags using this method will cause it to
forget about some or all other optimization settings that have been
applied.

So the only safe way to disable the stack protector is to disable it
for the entire source file.

powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call

Implement rtas_call_reentrant() for reentrant rtas-calls:

On LoPAPR Version 1.1 (March 24,

powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call

Implement rtas_call_reentrant() for reentrant rtas-calls:
"ibm,int-on", "ibm,int-off",ibm,get-xive" and "ibm,set-xive".

On LoPAPR Version 1.1 (March 24, 2016), from 7.3.10.1 to 7.3.10.4,
items 2 and 3 say:

2 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * call must be
reentrant to the number of processors on the platform.
3 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * argument call
buffer for each simultaneous call must be physically unique.

So, these rtas-calls can be called in a lockless way, if using
a different buffer for each cpu doing such rtas call.

For this, it was suggested to add the buffer (struct rtas_args)
in the PACA struct, so each cpu can have it's own buffer.
The PACA struct received a pointer to rtas buffer, which is
allocated in the memory range available to rtas 32-bit.

Reentrant rtas calls are useful to avoid deadlocks in crashing,
where rtas-calls are needed, but some other thread crashed holding
the rtas.lock.

This is a backtrace of a deadlock from a kdump testing environment:

#0 arch_spin_lock
#1 lock_rtas ()
#2 rtas_call (token=8204, nargs=1, nret=1, outputs=0x0)
#3 ics_rtas_mask_real_irq (hw_irq=4100)
#4 machine_kexec_mask_interrupts
#5 default_machine_crash_shutdown
#6 machine_crash_shutdown
#7 __crash_kexec
#8 crash_kexec
#9 oops_end

powerpc/64: Prevent stack protection in early boot

The previous commit reduced the amount of code that is run before we
setup a paca. However there are still a few remaining functions that
run with no paca, or worse, with an arbitrary value in r13 that will
be used as a paca pointer.

In particular the stack protector canary is stored in the paca, so if
stack protector is activated for any of these functions we will read
the stack canary from wherever r13 points. If r13 happens to point
outside of memory we will get a machine check / checkstop.

For example if we modify initialise_paca() to trigger stack
protection, and then boot in the mambo simulator with r13 poisoned in
skiboot before calling the kernel:

DEBUG: 19952232: (19952232): INSTRUCTION: PC=0xC0000000191FC1E8: [0x3C4C006D]: addis r2,r12,0x6D [fetch]

So annotate the relevant functions to ensure stack protection is never
enabled for them.

powerpc/64: Setup a paca before parsing device tree etc.

Currently we set up the paca after parsing the device tree for CPU
features. Prior to that, r13 contains random data, which means there
is random data in r13 while we're running the generic dt parsing code.

This random data varies depending on whether we boot through a vmlinux
or a zImage: for the vmlinux case it's usually around zero, but for
zImages we see random values like 912a72603d420015.

This is poor practice, and can also lead to difficult-to-debug
crashes. For example, when kcov is enabled, the kcov instrumentation
attempts to read preempt_count out of the current task, which goes via
the paca. This then crashes in the zImage case.

Similarly stack protector can cause crashes if r13 is bogus, by
reading from the stack canary in the paca.

To resolve this:

- move the paca setup to before the CPU feature parsing.

- because we no longer have access to CPU feature flags in paca
setup, change the HV feature test in the paca setup path to consider
the actual value of the MSR rather than the CPU feature.

Translations get switched on once we leave early_setup, so I think
we'd already catch any other cases where the paca or task aren't set
up.

Boot tested on a P9 guest and host.

powerpc/pseries/svm: Use shared memory for LPPACA structures

LPPACA structures need to be shared with the host. Hence they need to be in
shared memory. Instead of allocating individual chunks of memory for a
given structure from memblock, a contiguous chunk of memory is allocated
and then converted into shared memory. Subsequent allocation requests will
come from the contiguous chunk which will be always shared memory for all
structures.

While we are able to use a kmem_cache constructor for the Debug Trace Log,
LPPACAs are allocated very early in the boot process (before SLUB is
available) so we need to use a simpler scheme here.

Introduce helper is_svm_platform() which uses the S bit of the MSR to tell
whether we're running as a secure guest.

powerpc: prefer memblock APIs returning virtual address

Patch series "memblock: simplify several early memory allocation", v4.

These patches simplify some of the early memory allocations by replacing
usage of older memblock APIs with newer and shinier ones.

Quite a few places in the arch/ code allocated memory using a memblock
API that returns a physical address of the allocated area, then
converted this physical address to a virtual one and then used memset(0)
to clear the allocated range.

More recent memblock APIs do all the three steps in one call and their
usage simplifies the code.

It's important to note that regardless of API used, the core allocation
is nearly identical for any set of memblock allocators: first it tries
to find a free memory with all the constraints specified by the caller
and then falls back to the allocation with some or all constraints
disabled.

The first three patches perform the conversion of call sites that have
exact requirements for the node and the possible memory range.

The fourth patch is a bit one-off as it simplifies openrisc's
implementation of pte_alloc_one_kernel(), and not only the memblock
usage.

The fifth patch takes care of simpler cases when the allocation can be
satisfied with a simple call to memblock_alloc().

The sixth patch removes one-liner wrappers for memblock_alloc on arm and
unicore32, as suggested by Christoph.

This patch (of 6):

There are a several places that allocate memory using memblock APIs that
return a physical address, convert the returned address to the virtual
address and frequently also memset(0) the allocated range.

Update these places to use memblock allocators already returning a
virtual address. Use memblock functions that clear the allocated memory
instead of calling memset(0) where appropriate.

The calls to memblock_alloc_base() that were not followed by memset(0)
are replaced with memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw(). Since the latter does
not panic() when the allocation fails, the appropriate panic() calls are
added to the call sites.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE

Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.

All these places for replacement were found by running the following
grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this
might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some
false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.

1. git grep "nid == -1"
2. git grep "node == -1"
3. git grep "nid = -1"
4. git grep "node = -1"

This patch (of 2):

At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA
related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
them to a common definition.

memblock: stop using implicit alignment to SMP_CACHE_BYTES

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.

Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.

Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.

For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.

The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:
