Or more accurately, they can be disabled but they will still # appear in the ALWAYS mask, meaning cpu_has_feature() will always # return true for them. # # In the past this hasn't really been a problem because on Book3S # 64 (where we support DT CPU features), the set of ALWAYS bits has been # very small. That was because we always built for POWER4 and later, # meaning the set of common bits was small. # # The only bit that could be cleared by DT CPU features that was also in # the ALWAYS mask was CPU_FTR_NODSISRALIGN, and that was only used in # the alignment handler to create a fake DSISR. That code was itself # deleted in 31bfdb036f12 ("powerpc: Use instruction emulation # infrastructure to handle alignment faults") (Sep 2017). # # However the set of ALWAYS features changed with the recent commit # db5ae1c155af ("powerpc/64s: Refine feature sets for little endian # builds") which restricted the set of feature flags when building # little endian to Power7 or later. That caused the ALWAYS mask to # become much larger for little endian builds. # # The result is that the following feature bits can currently not # be *disabled* by DT CPU features: # # CPU_FTR_REAL_LE, CPU_FTR_MMCRA, CPU_FTR_CTRL, CPU_FTR_SMT, # CPU_FTR_PURR, CPU_FTR_SPURR, CPU_FTR_DSCR, CPU_FTR_PKEY, # CPU_FTR_VMX_COPY, CPU_FTR_CFAR, CPU_FTR_HAS_PPR. # # To fix it we need to mask the set of ALWAYS features with the base set # of DT CPU features, ie. the features that are always enabled by DT CPU # features. That way there are no bits in the ALWAYS mask that are not # also always set by DT CPU features. # # Fixes: db5ae1c155af ("powerpc/64s: Refine feature sets for little endian builds") # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 7c8db8431b5bc1c37f6d2ce73d2e18a42b52c87d # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pq2fads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- pq2fads_defconfig # make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pq2fads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- arch/powerpc/boot/pq2fads.dtb: Warning (pci_bridge): /pci@f0010800: missing bus-range for PCI bridge arch/powerpc/boot/pq2fads.dtb: Warning (pci_device_bus_num): Failed prerequisite 'pci_bridge' INFO: Uncompressed kernel (size 0x54b590) overlaps the address of the wrapper(0x400000) INFO: Fixing the link_address of wrapper to (0x600000) INFO: Uncompressed kernel (size 0x53af18) overlaps the address of the wrapper(0x400000) INFO: Fixing the link_address of wrapper to (0x600000) Image Name: Linux-4.16.0-g7c8db84 Created: Fri Apr 13 01:32:39 2018 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2718922 Bytes = 2655.20 kB = 2.59 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Image Name: Linux-4.16.0-g7c8db84 Created: Fri Apr 13 01:32:39 2018 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2744006 Bytes = 2679.69 kB = 2.62 MB Load Address: 00600000 Entry Point: 006007a0 Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pq2fads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 # Build took: 0:00:47.207999
