[ Upstream commit 070b71f428facd9130319707db854ed8bd24637a ] To access hv-gpci kernel interface files data, the "Enable Performance Information Collection" option has to be set in hmc. Incase that option is not set and user try to read the interface files, it should give error message as operation not permitted. Result of accessing added interface files with disabled performance collection option: [command]# cat processor_bus_topology cat: processor_bus_topology: Operation not permitted [command]# cat processor_config cat: processor_config: Operation not permitted [command]# cat affinity_domain_via_domain cat: affinity_domain_via_domain: Operation not permitted [command]# cat affinity_domain_via_virtual_processor cat: affinity_domain_via_virtual_processor: Operation not permitted [command]# cat affinity_domain_via_partition Based on above result there is no error message when reading affinity_domain_via_partition file because of missing check for failed hcall. Fix this issue by adding a check in the start of affinity_domain_via_partition_show function, to return error incase hcall fails, with error type other then H_PARAMETER.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
