Commit 24be85a23d1f ("powerpc/powernv: Clear PECE1 in LPCR via stop-api
only on Hotplug", 2017-07-21) added two calls to opal_slw_set_reg()
inside pnv_cpu_offline(), with the aim of changing the LPCR value in
the SLW image to disable wakeups from the decrementer while a CPU is
offline. However, pnv_cpu_offline() gets called each time a secondary
CPU thread is woken up to participate in running a KVM guest, that is,
not just when a CPU is offlined.
Since opal_slw_set_reg() is a very slow operation (with observed
execution times around 20 milliseconds), this means that an offline
secondary CPU can often be busy doing the opal_slw_set_reg() call
when the primary CPU wants to grab all the secondary threads so that
it can run a KVM guest. This leads to messages like "KVM: couldn't
grab CPU n" being printed and guest execution failing.
There is no need to reprogram the SLW image on every KVM guest entry
and exit. So that we do it only when a CPU is really transitioning
between online and offline, this moves the calls to
pnv_program_cpu_hotplug_lpcr() into pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self().

This removes never used symbol - pnv_power9_force_smt4.
Note that we might still want to add stubs for:
void pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch(void);
void pnv_power9_force_smt4_release(void);

There is a single npu context per set of callback parameters. Callers
should be prevented from overwriting existing callback values so
instead return an error if different parameters are passed.

POWER9 processors up to and including "Nimbus" v2.2 have hardware
bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration.
One of these bugs has a workaround which is to get the core into
SMT4 state temporarily. This workaround is only needed when
running bare-metal.
This patch provides a function which gets the core into SMT4 mode
by preventing threads from going to a stop state, and waking up
those which are already in a stop state. Once at least 3 threads
are not in a stop state, the core will be in SMT4 and we can
continue.
To do this, we add a "dont_stop" flag to the paca to tell the
thread not to go into a stop state. If this flag is set,
power9_idle_stop() just returns immediately with a return value
of 0. The pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function does the following:
1. Set the dont_stop flag for each thread in the core, except
ourselves (in fact we use an atomic_inc() in case more than
one thread is calling this function concurrently).
2. See how many threads are awake, indicated by their
requested_psscr field in the paca being 0. If this is at
least 3, skip to step 5.
3. Send a doorbell interrupt to each thread that was seen as
being in a stop state in step 2.
4. Until at least 3 threads are awake, scan the threads to which
we sent a doorbell interrupt and check if they are awake now.
This relies on the following properties:
- Once dont_stop is non-zero, requested_psccr can't go from zero to
non-zero, except transiently (and without the thread doing stop).
- requested_psscr being zero guarantees that the thread isn't in
a state-losing stop state where thread reconfiguration could occur.
- Doing stop with a PSSCR value of 0 won't be a state-losing stop
and thus won't allow thread reconfiguration.
- Once threads_per_core/2 + 1 (i.e. 3) threads are awake, the core
must be in SMT4 mode, since SMT modes are powers of 2.
This does add a sync to power9_idle_stop(), which is necessary to
provide the correct ordering between setting requested_psscr and
checking dont_stop. The overhead of the sync should be unnoticeable
compared to the latency of going into and out of a stop state.
Because some objected to incurring this extra latency on systems where
the XER[SO] bug is not relevant, I have put the test in
power9_idle_stop inside a feature section. This means that
pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() WILL NOT WORK correctly on systems
without the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit set, and will
probably hang the system.
In order to cater for uses where the caller has an operation that
has to be done while the core is in SMT4, the core continues to be
kept in SMT4 after pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function returns,
until the pnv_power9_force_smt4_release() function is called.
It undoes the effect of step 1 above and allows the other threads
to go into a stop state.

Some Power9 revisions can run in a mode where TM operates without
suspended state. If we find ourself on a CPU that might be in this
mode, we query OPAL to check, and if so we reenable TM in CPU
features, and enable a new user feature to signal to userspace that we
are in this mode.
We do not enable the "normal" user feature, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM, but we
do enable PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC because that indicates to userspace
that the kernel will abort transactions on syscall entry, which is
true regardless of the suspend mode.

Nvlink2 supports address translation services (ATS) allowing devices
to request address translations from an mmu known as the nest MMU
which is setup to walk the CPU page tables.
To access this functionality certain firmware calls are required to
setup and manage hardware context tables in the nvlink processing unit
(NPU). The NPU also manages forwarding of TLB invalidates (known as
address translation shootdowns/ATSDs) to attached devices.
This patch exports several methods to allow device drivers to register
a process id (PASID/PID) in the hardware tables and to receive
notification of when a device should stop issuing address translation
requests (ATRs). It also adds a fault handler to allow device drivers
to demand fault pages in.

POWER9 contains an off core mmu called the nest mmu (NMMU). This is
used by other hardware units on the chip to translate virtual
addresses into real addresses. The unit attempting an address
translation provides the majority of the context required for the
translation request except for the base address of the partition table
(ie. the PTCR) which needs to be programmed into the NMMU.
This patch adds a call to OPAL to set the PTCR for the nest mmu in
opal_init().
