Hi Nick, As this series needs additional work, I just sent a single patch [1] fixing the MSR[RI] issue addressed in the patch 9/14 of this series.
I did that because that fix is fixing a panic currently seen and this will ease backport to stable and distro kernel. I suggest rebasing this series on top of this new patch. Cheers, Laurent. 1: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20220317110601.86917-1-lduf...@linux.ibm.com/ On 08/03/2022, 14:50:33, Nicholas Piggin wrote: > I had a bunch of random little fixes and cleanups around and > was prompted to put them together and make a change to call > RTAS with MSR[RI] enabled because of a report of the hard > lockup watchdog NMI IPI hitting in an rtas call which then > crashed because it's unrecoverable. > > Could possibly move patch 9 earlier if it would help with > backporting. > > Thanks, > Nick > > Nicholas Piggin (14): > powerpc/rtas: Move rtas entry assembly into its own file > powerpc/rtas: Make enter_rtas a nokprobe symbol on 64-bit > powerpc/rtas: Fix whitespace in rtas_entry.S > powerpc/rtas: Call enter_rtas with MSR[EE] disabled > powerpc/rtas: Modernise RI clearing on 64-bit > powerpc/rtas: Load rtas entry MSR explicitly > powerpc/rtas: PACA can be restored directly from SPRG > powerpc/rtas: call enter_rtas in real-mode on 64-bit > powerpc/rtas: Leave MSR[RI] enabled over RTAS call > powerpc/rtas: replace rtas_call_unlocked with raw_rtas_call > powerpc/rtas: tidy __fetch_rtas_last_error > powerpc/rtas: Close theoretical memory leak > powerpc/rtas: enture rtas_call is called with MMU enabled > powerpc/rtas: Consolidate and improve checking for rtas callers > > arch/powerpc/include/asm/rtas.h | 4 +- > arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile | 2 +- > arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_32.S | 49 ------ > arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S | 150 ------------------- > arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c | 132 +++++++++------- > arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas_entry.S | 144 ++++++++++++++++++ > arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-cpu.c | 2 +- > arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/ras.c | 7 +- > arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c | 2 +- > 9 files changed, 227 insertions(+), 265 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas_entry.S >
