Commit dc37374b9c833 ("powerpc/fsl: Move Freescale device tree files
into fsl folder") moved a lot of device tree files into fsl directory,
fixing Makefile for cuImage target only. Unfortunately there are other
targets which require embedding a device tree into the kernel image
(e.g. dtbImage.%). So use a more generic approach.

This dependency led to kconfig errors when MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC was
enabled, which selects FSL_LBC, in the absence of FSL_SOC, as reported
in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/564405/
It was originally suggested to add an FSL_SOC dependency to
MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC, but the FSL_SOC symbol has been a growing problem
due to hardware being shared between PPC and ARM SoCs. Even though
eLBC isn't found on ARM SoCs (the newer IFC is used instead), I don't
want to expand the use of FSL_SOC for things other than functions
exported by fsl_soc.c. In particular, it would be odd to add it to
MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC and then remove it from MTD_NAND_FSL_IFC.
Removing artificial dependencies also helps get compile-test exposure
via randconfig, allyesconfig, etc.

Commit b894157145e4 ("x86/PCI: Mark Broadwell-EP Home Agent & PCU as having
non-compliant BARs") marked Home Agent 0 & PCU has having non-compliant
BARs. Home Agent 1 also has non-compliant BARs.
Mark Home Agent 1 as having non-compliant BARs so the PCI core doesn't
touch them.
The problem with these devices is documented in the Xeon v4 specification
update:
BDF2 PCI BARs in the Home Agent Will Return Non-Zero Values
During Enumeration
Problem: During system initialization the Operating System may access
the standard PCI BARs (Base Address Registers). Due to
this erratum, accesses to the Home Agent BAR registers (Bus
1; Device 18; Function 0,4; Offsets (0x14-0x24) will return
non-zero values.
Implication: The operating system may issue a warning. Intel has not
observed any functional failures due to this erratum.

This patch adds recently added constant blinding helpers into the
s390 eBPF JIT. In the bpf_int_jit_compile() path, requirements are
to utilize bpf_jit_blind_constants()/bpf_jit_prog_release_other()
pair for rewriting the program into a blinded one, and to map the
BPF_REG_AX register to a CPU register. The mapping of BPF_REG_AX
is at r12 and similarly like in x86 case performs reloading when
ld_abs/ind is used. When blinding is not used, there's no additional
overhead in the generated image.
When BPF_REG_AX is used, we don't need to emit skb->data reload when
helper function changed skb->data, as this will be reloaded later
on anyway from stack on ld_abs/ind, where skb->data is needed. s390
allows for this w/o much additional complexity unlike f.e. x86.

Since the blinding is strictly only called from inside eBPF JITs,
we need to change signatures for bpf_int_jit_compile() and
bpf_prog_select_runtime() first in order to prepare that the
eBPF program we're dealing with can change underneath. Hence,
for call sites, we need to return the latest prog. No functional
change in this patch.

There is never such a situation, where bpf_int_jit_compile() is
called with either prog as NULL or len as 0, so the tests are
unnecessary and confusing as people would just copy them. s390
doesn't have them, so no change is needed there.

Issue:
As a master, the PCI IP block can combine a memory write to the last PCI
double word (4 bytes) of a cacheline with a 4 byte memory write to the
first PCI double word of the subsequent cacheline. This affects 32-bit
PCI target devices that blindly assert STOP on memory-write transactions,
without detecting that the data beat being transferred is the last data
beat of the transaction. It can cause a hang. PCI-X operation is not
affected by this erratum.
Workaround:
Setting the bit MDS in the PCI Bus Function Register will disable the
combining of crossing cacheline boundary requests into one burst
transaction. Therefore, it can prevent the errata scenario from
occurring.
This errata exists in MPC8543, MPC8543E, MPC8545, MPC8545E, MPC8547,
MPC8547E, MPC8548 and MPC8548E. Refer to PCI 5 in MPC8548 errata
document.

The genvdso program modifies the debug and stripped versions of the
VDSOs in place, and errors if the modification has already taken place.
Unfortunately this means that a rebuild which tries to rerun genvdso to
generate vdso*-image.c without also rebuilding vdso.so.dbg (for example
if genvdso.c is modified) hits a build error like this:
arch/mips/vdso/genvdso 'arch/mips/vdso/vdso.so.dbg' already contains a '.MIPS.abiflags' section
This is fixed by reorganising the rules such that unmodified .so files
have a .raw suffix, and these are copied in the same rule that runs
genvdso on the copies.
I.e. previously we had:
cmd_vdsold:
link objects -> vdso.so.dbg
cmd_genvdso:
strip vdso.so.dbg -> vdso.so
run genvdso -> vdso-image.c
and modify vdso.so.dbg and vdso.so in place
Now we have:
cmd_vdsold:
link objects -> vdso.so.dbg.raw
a new cmd_objcopy based strip rule (inspired by ARM):
strip vdso.so.dbg.raw -> vdso.so.raw
cmd_genvdso:
copy vdso.so.dbg.raw -> vdso.so.dbg
copy vdso.so.raw -> vdso.so
run genvdso -> vdso-image.c
and modify vdso.so.dbg and vdso.so in place

the generic OHCI driver successfully on a JZ4770-based board.
The device is disabled by default; boards that want to use it can
override the "status" property. The mass-production Qi LB60 boards
don't use the USB host controller.

on s390 we disabled the halt polling with commit 920552b213e3
("KVM: disable halt_poll_ns as default for s390x"), as floating
interrupts would let all CPUs have a successful poll, resulting
in much higher CPU usage (on otherwise idle systems).
With the improved selection of polls we can now retry halt polling.
Performance measurements with different choices like 25,50,80,100,200
microseconds showed that 80 microseconds seems to improve several cases
without increasing the CPU costs too much. Higher values would improve
the performance even more but increased the cpu time as well.
So let's start small and use this value of 80 microseconds on s390 until
we have a better understanding of cost/benefit of higher values.

Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on
s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs
would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for
transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough.
This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests.
This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they
should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls.
For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but
known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating
interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered
by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the
woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll.
This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or
expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as
not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor,
we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though.
This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte
transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP
while still providing a proper speedup.
This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks
wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

The introduction of switch_mm_irqs_off() brought back an old bug
regarding the use of preempt_enable_no_resched:
As part of:
62b94a08da1b ("sched/preempt: Take away preempt_enable_no_resched() from modules")
the definition of preempt_enable_no_resched() is only available in
built-in code, not in loadable modules, so we can't generally use
it from header files.
However, the ARM version of finish_arch_post_lock_switch()
calls preempt_enable_no_resched() and is defined as a static
inline function in asm/mmu_context.h. This in turn means we cannot
include asm/mmu_context.h from modules.
With today's tip tree, asm/mmu_context.h gets included from
linux/mmu_context.h, which is normally the exact pattern one would
expect, but unfortunately, linux/mmu_context.h can be included from
the vhost driver that is a loadable module, now causing this compile
time error with modular configs:
In file included from ../include/linux/mmu_context.h:4:0,
from ../drivers/vhost/vhost.c:18:
../arch/arm/include/asm/mmu_context.h: In function 'finish_arch_post_lock_switch':
../arch/arm/include/asm/mmu_context.h:88:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_enable_no_resched' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
preempt_enable_no_resched();
Andy already tried to fix the bug by including linux/preempt.h
from asm/mmu_context.h, but that didn't help. Arnd suggested reordering
the header files, which wasn't popular, so let's use this
workaround instead:
The finish_arch_post_lock_switch() definition is now also hidden
inside of #ifdef MODULE, so we don't see anything referencing
preempt_enable_no_resched() from a header file. I've built a
few hundred randconfig kernels with this, and did not see any
new problems.

If a kernel doesn't support MSA context (ie. CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA=n) then
it will only keep 64 bits per FP register in thread context, and the
calls to set_fpr64 in restore_msa_extcontext will overrun the end of the
FP register context into the FCSR & MSACSR values. GCC 6.x has become
smart enough to detect this & complain like so:
arch/mips/kernel/signal.c: In function 'protected_restore_fp_context':
./arch/mips/include/asm/processor.h:114:17: error: array subscript is above array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds]
fpr->val##width[FPR_IDX(width, idx)] = val; \
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./arch/mips/include/asm/processor.h:118:1: note: in expansion of macro 'BUILD_FPR_ACCESS'
BUILD_FPR_ACCESS(64)
The only way to trigger this code to run would be for a program to set
up an artificial extended MSA context structure following a sigframe &
execute sigreturn. Whilst this doesn't allow a program to write to any
state that it couldn't already, it makes little sense to allow this
"restoration" of MSA context in a system that doesn't support MSA.
Fix this by killing a program with SIGSYS if it tries something as crazy
as "restoring" fake MSA context in this way, also fixing the build error
& allowing for most of restore_msa_extcontext to be optimised out of
kernels without support for MSA.

Calculate the MIPS clockevent device's min_delta_ns dynamically based on
the time it takes to perform the mips_next_event() sequence.
Virtualisation in particular makes the current fixed min_delta of 0x300
inappropriate under some circumstances, as the CP0_Count and CP0_Compare
registers may be being emulated by the hypervisor, and the frequency may
not correspond directly to the CPU frequency.
We actually use twice the median of multiple 75th percentiles of
multiple measurements of how long the mips_next_event() sequence takes,
in order to fairly efficiently eliminate outliers due to unexpected
hypervisor latency (which would need handling with retries when it
occurs during normal operation anyway).

When estimating the clock frequency based on the RTC, take seconds into
account in case the Update In Progress (UIP) bit wasn't seen. This can
happen in virtual machines (which may get pre-empted by the hypervisor
at inopportune times) with QEMU emulating the RTC (and in fact not
setting the UIP bit for very long), especially on slow hosts such as
FPGA systems and hardware emulators. This results in several seconds
actually having elapsed before seeing the UIP bit instead of just one
second, and exaggerated timer frequencies.
While updating the comments, they're also fixed to match the code in
that the rising edge of the update flag is detected first, not the
falling edge.
The rising edge gives a more precise point to read the counters in a
virtualised system than the falling edge, resulting in a more accurate
frequency.
It does however mean that we have to also wait for the falling edge
before doing the read of the RTC seconds register, otherwise it seems to
be possible in slow hardware emulation to stray into the interval when
the RTC time is undefined during the update (at least 244uS after the
rising edge of the update flag). This can result in both seconds values
reading the same, and it wrapping to 60 seconds, vastly underestimating
the frequency.

The sampling of the GIC counter on Malta after observing a rising edge
of the RTC update flag differs slightly between the first and second
sample, with the first sample also calling gic_start_count(). The two
samples should really be taken as similarly as possible to get the most
accurate figure, so move the gic_start_count() call before detecting the
rising edge.

Commit 9791554b45a2 ("MIPS,prctl: add PR_[GS]ET_FP_MODE prctl options
for MIPS") added support for the PR_SET_FP_MODE prctl, which allows a
userland program to modify its FP mode at runtime. This is most notably
required if dynamic linking leads to the FP mode requirement changing at
runtime from that indicated in the initial executable's ELF header. In
order to avoid overhead in the general FP context restore code, it aimed
to have threads in the process become unable to enable the FPU during a
mode switch & have the thread calling the prctl syscall wait for all
other threads in the process to be context switched at least once. Once
that happens we can know that no thread in the process whose mode will
be switched has live FP context, and it's safe to perform the mode
switch. However in the (rare) case of modeswitches occurring in
multithreaded programs this can lead to indeterminate delays for the
thread invoking the prctl syscall, and the code monitoring for those
context switches was woefully inadequate for all but the simplest cases.
Fix this by broadcasting an IPI if other CPUs may have live FP context
for an affected thread, with a handler causing those CPUs to relinquish
their FPU ownership. Threads will then be allowed to continue running
but will stall on the wait_on_atomic_t in enable_restore_fp_context if
they attempt to use FP again whilst the mode switch is still in
progress. The end result is less fragile poking at scheduler context
switch counts & a more expedient completion of the mode switch.

Whilst a PR_SET_FP_MODE prctl is performed there are decisions made

If an address error exception occurs for a LDXC1 or SDXC1 instruction,
within the cop1x opcode space, allow it to be passed through to the FPU
emulator rather than resulting in a SIGILL. This causes LDXC1 & SDXC1 to
be handled in a manner consistent with the more common LDC1 & SDC1
instructions.
