Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main scheduling related changes in this cycle were:
- various sched/numa updates, for better performance
- tree wide cleanup of open coded nice levels
- nohz fix related to rq->nr_running use
- cpuidle changes and continued consolidation to improve the
kernel/sched/idle.c high level idle scheduling logic. As part of
this effort I pulled cpuidle driver changes from Rafael as well.
- standardized idle polling amongst architectures
- continued work on preparing better power/energy aware scheduling
- sched/rt updates
- misc fixlets and cleanups"

On LPAR guest systems Linux enables the shadow SLB to indicate to the
hypervisor a number of SLB entries that always have to be available.
Today we go through this shadow SLB and disable all ESID's valid bits.
However, pHyp doesn't like this approach very much and honors us with
fancy machine checks.
Fortunately the shadow SLB descriptor also has an entry that indicates
the number of valid entries following. During the lifetime of a guest
we can just swap that value to 0 and don't have to worry about the
SLB restoration magic.
While we're touching the code, let's also make it more readable (get
rid of rldicl), allow it to deal with a dynamic number of bolted
SLB entries and only do shadow SLB swizzling on LPAR systems.

We get an array of instructions from the hypervisor via device tree that
we write into a buffer that gets executed whenever we want to make an
ePAPR compliant hypercall.
However, the hypervisor passes us these instructions in BE order which
we have to manually convert to LE when we want to run them in LE mode.
With this fixup in place, I can successfully run LE kernels with KVM

POWER8 implements a new register called TAR. This register has to be

POWER8 introduced a new interrupt type called "Facility unavailable interrupt"
which contains its status message in a new register called FSCR.
Handle these exits and try to emulate instructions for unhandled facilities.
Follow-on patches enable KVM to expose specific facilities into the guest.
Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
The shared (magic) page is a data structure that contains often used
supervisor privileged SPRs accessible via memory to the user to reduce
the number of exits we have to take to read/write them.
When we actually share this structure with the guest we have to maintain
it in guest endianness, because some of the patch tricks only work with
native endian load/store operations.
Since we only share the structure with either host or guest in little
endian on book3s_64 pr mode, we don't have to worry about booke or book3s hv.
For booke, the shared struct stays big endian. For book3s_64 hv we maintain
the struct in host native endian, since it never gets shared with the guest.
For book3s_64 pr we introduce a variable that tells us which endianness the
shared struct is in and route every access to it through helper inline
functions that evaluate this variable.

Since commit "efcac65 powerpc: Per process DSCR + some fixes (try#4)"
it is no longer possible to set the DSCR on a per-CPU basis.
The old behaviour was to minipulate the DSCR SPR directly but this is no
longer sufficient: the value is quickly overwritten by context switching.
This patch stores the per-CPU DSCR value in a kernel variable rather than
directly in the SPR and it is used whenever a process has not set the DSCR
itself. The sysfs interface (/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/dscr) is unchanged.
Writes to the old global default (/sys/devices/system/cpu/dscr_default)
now set all of the per-CPU values and reads return the last written value.
The new per-CPU default is added to the paca_struct and is used everywhere
outside of sysfs.c instead of the old global default.

To support split core we need to change the check in __cpu_up() that
determines if a cpu is allowed to come online.
Currently we refuse to online cpus which are not the primary thread
within their core.
On POWER8 with split core support this check needs to instead refuse to
online cpus which are not the primary thread within their *sub* core.
On POWER7 and other systems that do not support split core,
threads_per_subcore == threads_per_core and so the check is equivalent.

On POWER8 we have a new concept of a subcore. This is what happens when
you take a regular core and split it. A subcore is a grouping of two or
four SMT threads, as well as a handfull of SPRs which allows the subcore
to appear as if it were a core from the point of view of a guest.
Unlike threads_per_core which is fixed at boot, threads_per_subcore can
change while the system is running. Most code will not want to use
threads_per_subcore.

As part of the support for split core on POWER8, we want to be able to
block splitting of the core while KVM VMs are active.
The logic to do that would be exactly the same as the code we currently
have for inhibiting onlining of secondaries.
Instead of adding an identical mechanism to block split core, rework the
secondary inhibit code to be a "HV KVM is active" check. We can then use
that in both the cpu hotplug code and the upcoming split core code.

[ 75.131316] Processor 17 is stuck.
Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8,
16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe
that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores,
before performing kexec:
[ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel
[ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.

[ 9464.148994] kexec: Waking offline cpu 15.
[ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17.
Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually
fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online
during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained
in commit e8e5c2155b (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec),
as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus().
It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable
'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done
by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec().
Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that
any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in
the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on
onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc.
So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the
kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc.
Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we
can catch such issues more easily in the future.

Merge tag 'signed-for-3.15' of git://github.com/agraf/linux-2.6 into kvm-master
Patch queue for 3.15 - 2014-05-12
This request includes a few bug fixes that really shouldn't wait for the next
release.
It fixes KVM on 32bit PowerPC when built as module. It also fixes the PV KVM
acceleration when NX gets honored by the host. Furthermore we fix transactional
memory support and numa support on HV KVM.
I am seeing an issue where a CPU running perf eventually hangs.
Traces show timer interrupts happening every 4 seconds even
when a userspace task is running on the CPU. /proc/timer_list
also shows pending hrtimers have not run in over an hour,
including the scheduler.
Looking closer, decrementers_next_tb is getting set to
0xffffffffffffffff, and at that point we will never take
a timer interrupt again.
In __timer_interrupt() we set decrementers_next_tb to
0xffffffffffffffff and rely on ->event_handler to update it:
*next_tb = ~(u64)0;
if (evt->event_handler)
evt->event_handler(evt);
In this case ->event_handler is hrtimer_interrupt. This will eventually
call back through the clockevents code with the next event to be
programmed:
static int decrementer_set_next_event(unsigned long evt,
struct clock_event_device *dev)
{
/* Don't adjust the decrementer if some irq work is pending */
if (test_irq_work_pending())
return 0;
__get_cpu_var(decrementers_next_tb) = get_tb_or_rtc() + evt;
If irq work came in between these two points, we will return
before updating decrementers_next_tb and we never process a timer
interrupt again.
This looks to have been introduced by 0215f7d8c53f (powerpc: Fix races
with irq_work). Fix it by removing the early exit and relying on
code later on in the function to force an early decrementer:
/* We may have raced with new irq work */
if (test_irq_work_pending())
set_dec(1);

This series adds support for building the powerpc 64-bit
LE kernel using the new ABI v2. We already supported
running ABI v2 userspace programs but this adds support
for building the kernel itself using the new ABI.
Move the devspec OF attribute to PCI common code's set of device attributes
since it's not architecture dependent. As a side effect microblaze and
powerpc no longer need to use pcibios_add_platform_entries().

With libfdt support, we can take advantage of helper accessors in libfdt
for accessing the FDT header data. This makes the code more readable and
makes the FDT blob structure more opaque to the kernel. This also
prepares for removing struct boot_param_header completely.

Move the /memreserve/ processing and dtb memory reservations into
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem. This converts arm, arm64, and powerpc
as they are the only users of early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem.
memblock_reserve is safe to call on the same region twice, so the
reservation check for the dtb in powerpc 32-bit reservations is safe to
remove.

Both powerpc and microblaze have the same FDT blob in debugfs feature.
Move this to common location and remove the powerpc and microblaze
implementations. This feature could become more useful when FDT
overlay support is added.
This changes the path of the blob from "$arch/flat-device-tree" to
"device-tree/flat-device-tree".

Unaligned stores take alignment exceptions on POWER7 running in little-endian.
This is a dumb little-endian base memcpy that prevents unaligned stores.
Once booted the feature fixup code switches over to the VMX copy loops
(which are already endian safe).
The question is what we do before that switch over. The base 64bit
memcpy takes alignment exceptions on POWER7 so we can't use it as is.
Fixing the causes of alignment exception would slow it down, because
we'd need to ensure all loads and stores are aligned either through
rotate tricks or bytewise loads and stores. Either would be bad for
all other 64bit platforms.

Our PV guest patching code assembles chunks of instructions on the fly when it
encounters more complicated instructions to hijack. These instructions need
to live in a section that we don't mark as non-executable, as otherwise we
fault when jumping there.
Right now we put it into the .bss section where it automatically gets marked
as non-executable. Add a check to the NX setting function to ensure that we
leave these particular pages executable.

If we do a treclaim and we are not in TM suspend mode, it results in a TM bad
thing (ie. a 0x700 program check). Similarly if we do a trechkpt and we have
an active transaction or TEXASR Failure Summary (FS) is not set, we also take a
TM bad thing.
This should never happen, but if it does (ie. a kernel bug), the cause is
almost impossible to debug as the GPR state is mostly userspace and hence we
don't get a call chain.
This adds some checks in these cases case a BUG_ON() (in asm) in case we ever
hit these cases. It moves the register saving around to preserve r1 till later
also.
