We have suffered recrusive frozen PE a lot, which was caused
by IO accesses during the PE reset. Ben came up with the good
idea to keep frozen PE until recovery (BAR restore) gets done.
With that, IO accesses during PE reset are dropped by hardware
and wouldn't incur the recrusive frozen PE any more.
The patch implements the idea. We don't clear the frozen state
until PE reset is done completely. During the period, the EEH
core expects unfrozen state from backend to keep going. So we
have to reuse EEH_PE_RESET flag, which has been set during PE
reset, to return normal state from backend. The side effect is
we have to clear frozen state for towice (PE reset and clear it
explicitly), but that's harmless.
We have some limitations on pHyp. pHyp doesn't allow to enable
IO or DMA for unfrozen PE. So we don't enable them on unfrozen PE
in eeh_pci_enable(). We have to enable IO before grabbing logs on
pHyp. Otherwise, 0xFF's is always returned from PCI config space.
Also, we had wrong return value from eeh_pci_enable() for
EEH_OPT_THAW_DMA case. The patch fixes it too.

For EEH PowerNV backends, they need use their own PCI config
accesors as the normal one could be blocked during PE reset.
The patch also removes necessary parameter "hose" for the
function ioda_eeh_bridge_reset().

We've observed multiple PE reset failures because of PCI-CFG
access during that period. Potentially, some device drivers
can't support EEH very well and they can't put the device to
motionless state before PE reset. So those device drivers might
produce PCI-CFG accesses during PE reset. Also, we could have
PCI-CFG access from user space (e.g. "lspci"). Since access to
frozen PE should return 0xFF's, we can block PCI-CFG access
during the period of PE reset so that we won't get recrusive EEH
errors.
The patch adds flag EEH_PE_RESET, which is kept during PE reset.
The PowerNV/pSeries PCI-CFG accessors reuse the flag to block
PCI-CFG accordingly.

When doing PE reset, EEH_PE_ISOLATED is cleared unconditionally.
However, We should remove that if the PE reset has cleared the
frozen state successfully. Otherwise, the flag should be kept.
The patch fixes the issue.

For some fields (e.g. LEM, MMIO, DMA) in PHB diag-data dump, it's
meaningless to print them if they have non-zero value in the
corresponding mask registers because we always have non-zero values
in the mask registers. The patch only prints those fieds if we
have non-zero values in the primary registers (e.g. LEM, MMIO, DMA
status) so that we can save couple of lines. The patch also removes
unnecessary spare line before "brdgCtl:" and two leading spaces as
prefix in each line as Ben suggested.

The flag PNV_EEH_STATE_ENABLED is put into pnv_phb::eeh_state,
which is protected by CONFIG_EEH. We needn't that. Instead, we
can have pnv_phb::flags and maintain all flags there, which is
the purpose of the patch. The patch also renames PNV_EEH_STATE_ENABLED
to PNV_PHB_FLAG_EEH.

The PE state (for eeh_pe instance) EEH_PE_PHB_DEAD is duplicate to
EEH_PE_ISOLATED. Originally, those PHBs (PHB PE) with EEH_PE_PHB_DEAD
would be removed from the system. However, it's safe to replace
that with EEH_PE_ISOLATED.
The patch also clear EEH_PE_RECOVERING after fenced PHB has been handled,
either failure or success. It makes the PHB PE state consistent with:
PHB functions normally NONE
PHB has been removed EEH_PE_ISOLATED
PHB fenced, recovery in progress EEH_PE_ISOLATED | RECOVERING

This patch fixes this section mismatch:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1efc4): Section mismatch in reference from
the function apm821xx_pciex_init_port_hw() to the function
.init.text:ppc4xx_pciex_wait_on_sdr.isra.9()
The function apm821xx_pciex_init_port_hw() references the function
__init ppc4xx_pciex_wait_on_sdr.isra.9(). This is often because
apm821xx_pciex_init_port_hw lacks a __init annotation or the
annotation of ppc4xx_pciex_wait_on_sdr.isra.9 is wrong.
apm821xx_pciex_init_port_hw is only referenced by a struct in
__initdata, so it should be safe to add __init to
apm821xx_pciex_init_port_hw.

The secondary threads in the core are kept offline before launching guests
in kvm on powerpc: "371fefd6f2dc4666:KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use
SMT processor modes."
Hence their runlatch bits are cleared. When the secondary threads are called
in to start a guest, their runlatch bits need to be set to indicate that they
are busy. The primary thread has its runlatch bit set though, but there is no
harm in setting this bit once again. Hence set the runlatch bit for all
threads before they start guest.

Up until now we have been setting the runlatch bits for a busy CPU and
clearing it when a CPU enters idle state. The runlatch bit has thus
been consistent with the utilization of a CPU as long as the CPU is online.
However when a CPU is hotplugged out the runlatch bit is not cleared. It
needs to be cleared to indicate an unused CPU. Hence this patch has the
runlatch bit cleared for an offline CPU just before entering an idle state
and sets it immediately after it exits the idle state.

While testing memory hot-remove, I found following dead lock:
Process #1141 is drmgr, trying to remove some memory, i.e. memory499.
It holds the memory_hotplug_mutex, and blocks when trying to remove file
"online" under dir memory499, in kernfs_drain(), at
wait_event(root->deactivate_waitq,
atomic_read(&kn->active) == KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS);
Process #1120 is trying to online memory499 by
echo 1 > memory499/online
In .kernfs_fop_write, it uses kernfs_get_active() to increase
&kn->active, thus blocking process #1141. While itself is blocked later
when trying to acquire memory_hotplug_mutex, which is held by process
The backtrace of both processes are shown below:

This patch uses lock_device_hotplug() to protect remove_memory() called
in pseries_remove_memblock(), which is also stated before function
remove_memory():
* NOTE: The caller must call lock_device_hotplug() to serialize hotplug
* and online/offline operations before this call, as required by
* try_offline_node().
*/
void __ref remove_memory(int nid, u64 start, u64 size)
With this lock held, the other process(#1120 above) trying to online the
memory block will retry the system call when calling
lock_device_hotplug_sysfs(), and finally find No such device error.

We have two definitions of COMMAND_LINE_SIZE, one for the kernel
and one for the boot wrapper. I assume this is so the boot
wrapper can be self sufficient and not rely on kernel headers.
Having two defines with the same name is confusing, I just
updated the wrong one when trying to bump it.
Make the boot wrapper define unique by calling it
BOOT_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.

During the EEH hotplug event, iommu_add_device() will be invoked three times
and two of them will trigger warning or error.
The three times to invoke the iommu_add_device() are:
pci_device_add
...
set_iommu_table_base_and_group <- 1st time, fail
device_add
...
tce_iommu_bus_notifier <- 2nd time, succees
pcibios_add_pci_devices
...
pcibios_setup_bus_devices <- 3rd time, re-attach
The first time fails, since the dev->kobj->sd is not initialized. The
dev->kobj->sd is initialized in device_add().
The third time's warning is triggered by the re-attach of the iommu_group.
After applying this patch, the error
iommu_tce: 0003:05:00.0 has not been added, ret=-14

We have a subtle race when sending CPUs back to OPAL on kexec.
We mark them as "in real mode" right before we send them down. Once
we've booted the new kernel, it might try to call opal_reinit_cpus()
to change endianness, and that requires all CPUs to be spinning inside
OPAL.
However there is no synchronization here and we've observed cases
where the returning CPUs hadn't established their new state inside
OPAL before opal_reinit_cpus() is called, causing it to fail.
The proper fix is to actually wait for them to go down all the way
from the kexec'ing kernel.

The size of the sysparam sysfs files is determined from the device tree
at boot. However the buffer is hard coded to 64 bytes. If we encounter a
parameter that is larger than 64, or miss-parse the device tree, the
buffer will overflow when reading or writing to the parameter.
Check it at discovery time, and if the parameter is too large, do not
create a sysfs entry for it.

The sysparam code currently uses the userspace supplied number of
bytes when memcpy()ing in to a local 64-byte buffer.
Limit the maximum number of bytes by the size of the buffer.

The OPAL calls are returning int64_t values, which the sysparam code
stores in an int, and the sysfs callback returns ssize_t. Make code a
easier to read by consistently using ssize_t.

When a sysparam query in OPAL returned a negative value (error code),
sysfs would spew out a decent chunk of memory; almost 64K more than
expected. This was traced to a sign/unsigned mix up in the OPAL sysparam
sysfs code at sys_param_show.
The return value of sys_param_show is a ssize_t, calculated using
return ret ? ret : attr->param_size;
Alan Modra explains:
"attr->param_size" is an unsigned int, "ret" an int, so the overall
expression has type unsigned int. Result is that ret is cast to
unsigned int before being cast to ssize_t.
Instead of using the ternary operator, set ret to the param_size if an
error is not detected. The same bug exists in the sysfs write callback;
this patch fixes it in the same way.
A note on debugging this next time: on my system gcc will warn about
this if compiled with -Wsign-compare, which is not enabled by -Wall,
only -Wextra.

commit 41dd03a9 may cause Oops in rtas_stop_self().
The reason is that the rtas_args was moved into stack space. For a box
with more that 4GB RAM, the stack could easily be outside 32bit range,
but RTAS is 32bit.
So the patch moves rtas_args away from stack by adding static before
it.

Commit aac416fc38c (lkdtm: flush icache and report actions) calls
flush_icache_range from a module. It's exported on most architectures
that implement it, but not on powerpc. This patch exports it to fix
the module link failure.

__ftrace_make_call assumed ABIv1 TOC stack offsets, so it
broke on ABIv2.
While we are here, we can simplify the instruction modification
code. Since we always update one instruction there is no need to
probe_kernel_write and flush_icache_range, just use patch_branch.

When testing the ftrace function tracer, I realised that ftrace_caller
and mcount are called from modules and they both call into C, therefore
they need the ABIv2 global entry point to establish r2.

If an assembly function that calls back into c code is exported to
modules, we need to ensure r2 is setup correctly. There are only
two places crazy enough to do it (two of which are my fault).
