2017-10-03powerpc: Fix action argument for cpufeatures-based TLB flushJeremy Kerr
Commit 41d0c2ecde19 ("powerpc/powernv: Fix local TLB flush for boot and MCE on POWER9") introduced calls to __flush_tlb_power[89] from the cpufeatures code, specifying the number of sets to flush. However, these functions take an action argument, not a number of sets. This means we hit the BUG() in __flush_tlb_{206,300} when using cpufeatures-style configuration. This change passes TLB_INVAL_SCOPE_GLOBAL instead.

2017-07-11powerpc/powernv: Fix local TLB flush for boot and MCE on POWER9Nicholas Piggin
There are two cases outside the normal address space management where a CPU's local TLB is to be flushed: 1. Host boot; in case something has left stale entries in the TLB (e.g., kexec). 2. Machine check; to clean corrupted TLB entries. CPU state restore from deep idle states also flushes the TLB. However this seems to be a side effect of reusing the boot code to set CPU state, rather than a requirement itself. The current flushing has a number of problems with ISA v3.0B: - The current radix mode of the MMU is not taken into account. tlbiel is undefined if the R field does not match the current radix mode. - ISA v3.0B hash must flush the partition and process table caches. - ISA v3.0B radix must flush partition and process scoped translations, partition and process table caches, and also the page walk cache. Add POWER9 cases to handle these, with radix vs hash determined by the host MMU mode.

2017-06-01powerpc/64: Reclaim CPU_FTR_SUBCOREMichael Ellerman
We are running low on CPU feature bits, so we only want to use them when it's really necessary. CPU_FTR_SUBCORE is only used in one place, and only in C, so we don't need it in order to make asm patching work. It can only be set on "Power8" CPUs, which in practice means POWER8, POWER8E and POWER8NVL. There are no plans to implement it on future CPUs, but if there ever were we could retrofit it then. Although KVM uses subcores, it never looks at the CPU feature, it either looks at the ISA level or the threads_per_subcore value. So drop the CPU feature and do a PVR check instead. Drop the device tree "subcore" feature as we no longer support doing anything with it, and we will drop it from skiboot too. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2017-06-01powerpc/64s: Add dt_cpu_ftrs boot time setup optionNicholas Piggin
Provide a dt_cpu_ftrs= cmdline option to disable the dt_cpu_ftrs CPU feature discovery, and fall back to the "cputable" based version. Also allow control of advertising unknown features to userspace and with this parameter, and remove the clunky CONFIG option.

2017-05-09powerpc/64s: Support new device tree binding for discovering CPU featuresNicholas Piggin
The ibm,powerpc-cpu-features device tree binding describes CPU features with ASCII names and extensible compatibility, privilege, and enablement metadata that allows improved flexibility and compatibility with new hardware. The interface is described in detail in ibm,powerpc-cpu-features.txt in this patch. Currently this code is not enabled by default, and there are no released firmwares that provide the binding.
