kexec on pseries disables AIL (reloc_on_exc), required for scv
instruction support, before other CPUs have been shut down. This means
they can execute scv instructions after AIL is disabled, which causes an
interrupt at an unexpected entry location that crashes the kernel.
Change the kexec sequence to disable AIL after other CPUs have been
brought down.
As a refresher, the real-mode scv interrupt vector is 0x17000, and the
fixed-location head code probably couldn't easily deal with implementing
such high addresses so it was just decided not to support that interrupt
at all.

For fadump case, passing additional parameters to dump capture kernel
helps in minimizing the memory footprint for it and also provides the
flexibility to disable components/modules, like hugepages, that are
hindering the boot process of the special dump capture environment.
Set up a dedicated parameter area to be passed to the capture kernel.
This area type is defined as RTAS_FADUMP_PARAM_AREA. Sysfs attribute
'/sys/kernel/fadump/bootargs_append' is exported to the userspace to
specify the additional parameters to be passed to the capture kernel

Currently, fadump on pseries assumes a single boot memory region even
though f/w supports more than one boot memory region. Add support for
more boot memory regions to make the implementation flexible for any
enhancements that introduce other region types. For this, rtas memory
structure for fadump is updated to have multiple boot memory regions
instead of just one. Additionally, methods responsible for creating
the fadump memory structure during both the first and second kernel
boot have been modified to take these multiple boot memory regions
into account. Also, a new callback has been added to the fadump_ops
structure to get the maximum boot memory regions supported by the
platform.

Due to changes in memory resources caused by either memory hotplug or
online/offline events, the elfcorehdr, which describes the CPUs and
memory of the crashed kernel to the kernel that collects the dump (known
as second/fadump kernel), becomes outdated. Consequently, attempting
dump collection with an outdated elfcorehdr can lead to failed or
inaccurate dump collection.
Memory hotplug or online/offline events is referred as memory add/remove
events in reset of the commit message.
The current solution to address the aforementioned issue is as follows:
Monitor memory add/remove events in userspace using udev rules, and
re-register fadump whenever there are changes in memory resources. This
leads to the creation of a new elfcorehdr with updated system memory
information.
There are several notable issues associated with re-registering fadump
for every memory add/remove events.
1. Bulk memory add/remove events with udev-based fadump re-registration
can lead to race conditions and, more importantly, it creates a wide
window during which fadump is inactive until all memory add/remove
events are settled.
2. Re-registering fadump for every memory add/remove event is
inefficient.
3. The memory for elfcorehdr is allocated based on the memblock regions
available during early boot and remains fixed thereafter. However, if
elfcorehdr is later recreated with additional memblock regions, its
size will increase, potentially leading to memory corruption.
Address the aforementioned challenges by shifting the creation of
elfcorehdr from the first kernel (also referred as the crashed kernel),
where it was created and frequently recreated for every memory
add/remove event, to the fadump kernel. As a result, the elfcorehdr only
needs to be created once, thus eliminating the necessity to re-register
fadump during memory add/remove events.
At present, the first kernel prepares fadump header and stores it in the
fadump reserved area. The fadump header includes the start address of
the elfcorehdr, crashing CPU details, and other relevant information. In
the event of a crash in the first kernel, the second/fadump boots and
accesses the fadump header prepared by the first kernel. It then
performs the following steps in a platform-specific function
[rtas|opal]_fadump_process:
1. Sanity check for fadump header
2. Update CPU notes in elfcorehdr
Along with the above, update the setup_fadump()/fadump.c to create
elfcorehdr and set its address to the global variable elfcorehdr_addr
for the vmcore module to process it in the second/fadump kernel.
Section below outlines the information required to create the elfcorehdr
and the changes made to make it available to the fadump kernel if it's
not already.
To create elfcorehdr, the following crashed kernel information is
required: CPU notes, vmcoreinfo, and memory ranges.
At present, the CPU notes are already prepared in the fadump kernel, so
no changes are needed in that regard. The fadump kernel has access to
all crashed kernel memory regions, including boot memory regions that
are relocated by firmware to fadump reserved areas, so no changes for
that either. However, it is necessary to add new members to the fadump
header, i.e., the 'fadump_crash_info_header' structure, in order to pass
the crashed kernel's vmcoreinfo address and its size to fadump kernel.
In addition to the vmcoreinfo address and size, there are a few other
attributes also added to the fadump_crash_info_header structure.
1. version:
It stores the fadump header version, which is currently set to 1.
This provides flexibility to update the fadump crash info header in
the future without changing the magic number. For each change in the
fadump header, the version will be increased. This will help the
updated kernel determine how to handle kernel dumps from older
kernels. The magic number remains relevant for checking fadump header
corruption.
2. pt_regs_sz/cpu_mask_sz:
Store size of pt_regs and cpu_mask structure of first kernel. These
attributes are used to prevent dump processing if the sizes of
pt_regs or cpu_mask structure differ between the first and fadump
kernels.
Note: if either first/crashed kernel or second/fadump kernel do not have
the changes introduced here then kernel fail to collect the dump and
prints relevant error message on the console.

Couple of Minor fixes:
- hcall return values are long. Fix that for h_get_mpp, h_get_ppp and
parse_ppp_data
- If hcall fails, values set should be at-least zero. It shouldn't be
uninitialized values. Fix that for h_get_mpp and h_get_ppp

When there are no options specified for lparstat, it is expected to
give reports since LPAR(Logical Partition) boot.
APP(Available Processor Pool) is an indicator of how many cores in the
shared pool are free to use in Shared Processor LPAR(SPLPAR). APP is
derived using pool_idle_time which is obtained using H_PIC call.
The interval based reports show correct APP value while since boot
report shows very high APP values. This happens because in that case APP
is obtained by dividing pool idle time by LPAR uptime. Since pool idle
time is reported by the PowerVM hypervisor since its boot, it need not
align with LPAR boot.
To fix that export boot pool idle time in lparcfg and powerpc-utils will
use this info to derive APP as below for since boot reports.
APP = (pool idle time - boot pool idle time) / (uptime * timebase)
Results:: Observe APP values.
====================== Shared LPAR ================================
lparstat
System Configuration
type=Shared mode=Uncapped smt=8 lcpu=12 mem=15573440 kB cpus=37 ent=12.00
reboot
stress-ng --cpu=$(nproc) -t 600
sleep 600
So in this case app is expected to close to 37-6=31.

papr_scm and ndtest share common PDSM payload structs like
nd_papr_pdsm_health. Presently these structs are duplicated across
papr_pdsm.h and ndtest.h header files. Since 'ndtest' is essentially
arch independent and can run on platforms other than PPC64, a way
needs to be deviced to avoid redundancy and duplication of PDSM
structs in future.
So the patch proposes moving the PDSM header from arch/powerpc/include-
-/uapi/ to the generic include/uapi/linux directory. Also, there
are some #defines common between papr_scm and ndtest which are not
exported to the user space. So, move them to a header file which
can be shared across ndtest and papr_scm via newly introduced
include/linux/papr_scm.h.

At the time of LPAR boot up, partition firmware provides Open Firmware
property ibm,dma-window for the PE. This property is provided on the PCI
bus the PE is attached to.
There are execptions where the partition firmware might not provide this
property for the PE at the time of LPAR boot up. One of the scenario is
where the firmware has frozen the PE due to some error condition. This
PE is frozen for 24 hours or unless the whole system is reinitialized.
Within this time frame, if the LPAR is booted, the frozen PE will be
presented to the LPAR but ibm,dma-window property could be missing.
Today, under these circumstances, the LPAR oopses with NULL pointer
dereference, when configuring the PCI bus the PE is attached to.

Deduplicate ->read() callbacks of bin_attributes which are backed by a
simple buffer in memory:
Use the newly introduced sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper instead,
either by referencing it directly or by declaring such bin_attributes
with BIN_ATTR_SIMPLE_RO() or BIN_ATTR_SIMPLE_ADMIN_RO().
Aside from a reduction of LoC, this shaves off a few bytes from vmlinux
(304 bytes on an x86_64 allyesconfig).

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

Most probe functions that do not use the 'compatible' string do
nothing else than checking whether the machine is compatible with
one of the strings in a NULL terminated table of strings.
Define that table of strings in ppc_md structure and check it directly
from probe_machine() instead of using ppc_md.probe() for that.
Keep checking in ppc_md.probe() only for more complex probing.
All .compatible could be replaced with a single element NULL
terminated list but that's not worth the churn. Can be do incrementaly
in follow-up patches.

Now move the relevant codes into separate files:
kernel/crash_reserve.c, include/linux/crash_reserve.h.
And add config item CRASH_RESERVE to control its enabling.
And also update the old ifdeffery of CONFIG_CRASH_CORE, including of
<linux/crash_core.h> and config item dependency on CRASH_CORE
accordingly.
And also do renaming as follows:
- arch/xxx/kernel/{crash_core.c => vmcore_info.c}
because they are only related to vmcoreinfo exporting on x86, arm64,
riscv.
And also Remove config item CRASH_CORE, and rely on CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE to

At the time of LPAR dump, before kexec hands over control to kdump
kernel, DDWs (Dynamic DMA Windows) are scanned and added to the FDT.
For the SR-IOV case, default DMA window "ibm,dma-window" is removed from
the FDT and DDW added, for the device.
Now, kexec hands over control to the kdump kernel.
When the kdump kernel initializes, PCI busses are scanned and IOMMU
group/tables created, in pci_dma_bus_setup_pSeriesLP(). For the SR-IOV
case, there is no "ibm,dma-window". The original commit: b1fc44eaa9ba,
fixes the path where memory is pre-mapped (direct mapped) to the DDW.
When TCEs are direct mapped, there is no need to initialize IOMMU
tables.
iommu_table_setparms_lpar() only considers "ibm,dma-window" property
when initiallizing IOMMU table. In the scenario where TCEs are
dynamically allocated for SR-IOV, newly created IOMMU table is not
initialized. Later, when the device driver tries to enter TCEs for the
SR-IOV device, NULL pointer execption is thrown from iommu_area_alloc().
The fix is to initialize the IOMMU table with DDW property stored in the
FDT. There are 2 points to remember:
1. For the dedicated adapter, kdump kernel would encounter both
default and DDW in FDT. In this case, DDW property is used to
initialize the IOMMU table.
2. A DDW could be direct or dynamic mapped. kdump kernel would
initialize IOMMU table and mark the existing DDW as
"dynamic". This works fine since, at the time of table
initialization, iommu_table_clear() makes some space in the
DDW, for some predefined number of TCEs which are needed for
kdump to succeed.
Fixes: b1fc44eaa9ba ("pseries/iommu/ddw: Fix kdump to work in absence of ibm,dma-window")

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.
To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
