Subject: [PATCH 6.0 17/34] Revert "powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call"
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2022 19:52:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221013175146.967941800@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221013175146.507746257@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@linux.ibm.com>

commit f88aabad33ea22be2ce1c60d8901942e4e2a9edb upstream.

At the time this was submitted by Leonardo, I confirmed -- or thought
I had confirmed -- with PowerVM partition firmware development that
the following RTAS functions:

- ibm,get-xive
- ibm,int-off
- ibm,int-on
- ibm,set-xive

were safe to call on multiple CPUs simultaneously, not only with
respect to themselves as indicated by PAPR, but with arbitrary other
RTAS calls:

https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/875zcy2v8o.fsf@linux.ibm.com/

Recent discussion with firmware development makes it clear that this
is not true, and that the code in commit b664db8e3f97 ("powerpc/rtas:
Implement reentrant rtas call") is unsafe, likely explaining several
strange bugs we've seen in internal testing involving DLPAR and
LPM. These scenarios use ibm,configure-connector, whose internal state
can be corrupted by the concurrent use of the "reentrant" functions,
leading to symptoms like endless busy statuses from RTAS.

Fixes: b664db8e3f97 ("powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call")
