powerpc/mm/radix: Fix checkstops caused by invalid tlbiel In tlbiel_radix_set_isa300() we use the PPC_TLBIEL() macro to construct tlbiel instructions. The instruction takes 5 fields, two of which are registers, and the others are constants. But because it's constructed with inline asm the compiler doesn't know that. We got the constraint wrong on the 'r' field, using "r" tells the compiler to put the value in a register. The value we then get in the macro is the *register number*, not the value of the field. That means when we mask the register number with 0x1 we get 0 or 1 depending on which register the compiler happens to put the constant in, eg: li r10,1 tlbiel r8,r9,2,0,0 li r7,1 tlbiel r10,r6,0,0,1 If we're unlucky we might generate an invalid instruction form, for example RIC=0, PRS=1 and R=0, tlbiel r8,r7,0,1,0, this has been observed to cause machine checks: Oops: Machine check, sig: 7 [#1] CPU: 24 PID: 0 Comm: swapper NIP: 00000000000385f4 LR: 000000000100ed00 CTR: 000000000000007f REGS: c00000000110bb40 TRAP: 0200 MSR: 9000000000201003 <SF,HV,ME,RI,LE> CR: 48002222 XER: 20040000 CFAR: 00000000000385d0 DAR: 0000000000001c00 DSISR: 00000200 SOFTE: 1 If the machine check happens early in boot while we have MSR_ME=0 it will escalate into a checkstop and kill the box entirely. To fix it we could change the inline asm constraint to "i" which tells the compiler the value is a constant. But a better fix is to just pass a literal 1 into the macro, which bypasses any problems with inline asm constraints.
