[PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc/rtas: Implement reentrant rtas call

From: Leonardo Bras
Date: Wed May 13 2020 - 00:40:46 EST


Implement rtas_call_reentrant() for reentrant rtas-calls:
"ibm,int-on", "ibm,int-off",ibm,get-xive" and "ibm,set-xive".

On LoPAPR Version 1.1 (March 24, 2016), from 7.3.10.1 to 7.3.10.4,
items 2 and 3 say:

2 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * call must be
reentrant to the number of processors on the platform.
3 - For the PowerPC External Interrupt option: The * argument call
buffer for each simultaneous call must be physically unique.

So, these rtas-calls can be called in a lockless way, if using
a different buffer for each call.

This can be useful to avoid deadlocks in crashing, where rtas-calls are
needed, but some other thread crashed holding the rtas.lock.

This is an example backtrace of deadlock noticed:

#0 arch_spin_lock
#1 lock_rtas ()
#2 rtas_call (token=8204, nargs=1, nret=1, outputs=0x0)
#3 ics_rtas_mask_real_irq (hw_irq=4100)
#4 machine_kexec_mask_interrupts
#5 default_machine_crash_shutdown
#6 machine_crash_shutdown
#7 __crash_kexec
#8 crash_kexec
#9 oops_end

Changes since v1:
- Moved buffer from stack to PACA (as suggested by Paul Mackerras)
- Added missing output bits
- Improve documentation following kernel-doc format (as suggested by
Nathan Lynch)
