[PATCH v4 03/21] powerpc: remove arguments from fault handler functions

Make mm fault handlers all just take the pt_regs * argument and load DAR/DSISR from that. Make those that return a value return long. This is done to make the function signatures match other handlers, which will help with a future patch to add wrappers. Explicit arguments could be added for

[PATCH v4 04/21] powerpc: bad_page_fault, do_break get registers from regs

[PATCH v4 10/21] powerpc/64s/hash: improve context tracking of hash faults

This moves the 64s/hash context tracking from hash_page_mm() to __do_hash_fault(), so it's no longer called by OCXL / SPU accelerators, which was certainly the wrong thing to be doing, because those callers are not low level interrupt handlers, so should have entered a kernel context tracking

[PATCH v4 12/21] powerpc/64: add context tracking to asynchronous interrupts

Previously context tracking was not done for asynchronous interrupts, (those that run in interrupt context), and if those would cause a reschedule when they exit, then scheduling functions (schedule_user, preempt_schedule_irq) call exception_enter/exit to fix this up and exit user context. This

[PATCH v4 18/21] powerpc: move NMI entry/exit code into wrapper

This moves the common NMI entry and exit code into the interrupt handler wrappers. This changes the behaviour of soft-NMI (watchdog) and HMI interrupts, and also MCE interrupts on 64e, by adding missing parts of the NMI entry to them. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin ---

This adds interrupt handler wrapper functions, similar to the generic / x86 code, and moves several common operations into them from either asm or open coded in the individual handlers. Since v1: - Fixed a couple of compile issues - Fixed perf weirdness (sometimes NMI, sometimes not) - Also move

[PATCH v4 14/21] powerpc/64s: move context tracking exit to interrupt exit path

The interrupt handler wrapper functions are not the ideal place to maintain context tracking because after they return, the low level exit code must then determine if there are interrupts to replay, or if the task should be preempted, etc. Those paths (e.g., schedule_user) include their own

[PATCH v4 01/21] powerpc/32s: Do DABR match out of handle_page_fault()

From: Christophe Leroy handle_page_fault() has some code dedicated to book3s/32 to call do_break() when the DSI is a DABR match. On other platforms, do_break() is handled separately. Do the same for book3s/32, do it earlier in the process of DSI. This change also avoid doing the test on ISI.

[PATCH v2] powerpc: fix alignment bug whithin the init sections

This is a bug that causes early crashes in builds with a .exit.text section smaller than a page and a .init.text section that ends in the beginning of a physical page (this is kinda random, which might explain why this wasn't really encountered before). The init sections are ordered like this:

[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/compat_sys: swap hi/lo parts of 64-bit syscall args in LE mode

Swap upper/lower 32 bits for 64-bit compat syscalls, conditioned on endianness. This is modeled after the same functionality in arch/mips/kernel/linux32.c. This fixes compat_sys on ppc64le, when called by 32-bit little-endian processes. Tested with `file /bin/bash` (pread64) and `truncate -s 5G
