Code which runs with interrupts enabled should be moved above
__end_soft_masked where possible, because maskable interrupts that hit
below there need to consult the soft mask table.

Normal kernel-interrupt exits can get interrupt_return_srr_user_restart
in their backtrace, which is an unusual and notable function, and it is
part of the user-interrupt exit path, which is doubly confusing.
Add symmetric non-local labels for user and kernel interrupt exit cases
to address this.
If one interrupt exit symbol must not be kprobed, none of them can be,
really.

Similar to 2b48e96be2f9f ("powerpc/64: fix irq replay pt_regs->softe
value"), enable MSR_EE in pt_regs->msr, which makes the regs look a
bit more normal and allows the extra debug checks to be added to
interrupt handler entry.

If an NMI interrupt hits in an implicit soft-masked region, regs->softe
is modified to reflect that. This may not be necessary for correctness
at the moment, but it is less surprising and it's unhelpful when
debugging or adding checks.
Make sure this is changed back to how it was found before retu
Commit 9d1988ca87dd ("powerpc/64: treat low kernel text as irqs
soft-masked") ends up catching too much code, including ret_from_fork,
and parts of interrupt and syscall return that do not expect to be
interrupts to be soft-masked. If an interrupt gets marked pending,
and then the code proceeds out
The implicit soft-masking to speed up interrupt return was going to be
used by 64e as well, but it was not ready in time. 64e always disables
MSR[EE] when exiting from interrupt and syscall.
Disable it for now.

Commit 24d33ac5b8ff ("powerpc/64s: Make prom_init require RELOCATABLE")
also made my 64e config require RELOCATABLE, which results in compile
failures.
Whether or not that's the right thing to do for prom_init for 64e, this
fixes CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y compile errors. That commit is marked as

This is a bunch of fixes for powerpc next, mostly a nasty hole in fast
interrupt exit code found by Sachin and some other bits along the way
while looking at it.
Since v1:
- Fixed a bisection compile error due to a fix incorrectly going to
a later patch.
- Fixed the "add a table of implicit soft
The early bad fault or key fault test in do_hash_fault() ends up calling
into ___do_page_fault without having gone through an interrupt handler
wrapper (except the initial _RAW one). This can end up calling local irq
functions while the interrupt has not been reconciled, which will likely
cause cra
On PowerVM, CPU-less nodes can be populated with hot-plugged CPUs at
runtime. Today, the IPI is not created for such nodes, and hot-plugged
CPUs use a bogus IPI, which leads to soft lockups.
We could create the node IPI on demand but it is a bit complex because
this code would be called under brin
On SMP, setup_kuep() is also called from start_secondary() since
commit 86f46f343272 ("powerpc/32s: Initialise KUAP and KUEP in C").
start_secondary() is not an __init function.
Remove the __init marker from setup_kuep() and bail out when
not caller on the first CPU as the work is already done.
