This removes the code that was added to enable HV KVM to work on PPC970 processors. The PPC970 is an old CPU that doesn't support virtualizing guest memory. Removing PPC970 support also lets us remove the code for allocating and managing contiguous real-mode areas, the code for the !kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers case, the code for pinning pages of guest memory when first accessed and keeping track of which pages have been pinned, and the code for handling H_ENTER hypercalls in virtual mode. Book3S HV KVM is now supported only on POWER7 and POWER8 processors. The KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA capability now always returns 0.

The B (segment size) field in the RB operand for the tlbie instruction is two bits, which we get from the top two bits of the first doubleword of the HPT entry to be invalidated. These bits go in bits 8 and 9 of the RB operand (bits 54 and 55 in IBM bit numbering). The compute_tlbie_rb() function gets these bits as v >> (62 - 8), which is not correct as it will bring in the top 10 bits, not just the top two. These extra bits could corrupt the AP, AVAL and L fields in the RB value. To fix this we shift right 62 bits and then shift left 8 bits, so we only get the two bits of the B field. The first doubleword of the HPT entry is under the control of the guest kernel. In fact, Linux guests will always put zeroes in bits 54 -- 61 (IBM bits 2 -- 9), but we should not rely on guests doing this.

On recent IBM Power CPUs, while the hashed page table is looked up using the page size from the segmentation hardware (i.e. the SLB), it is possible to have the HPT entry indicate a larger page size. Thus for example it is possible to put a 16MB page in a 64kB segment, but since the hash lookup is done using a 64kB page size, it may be necessary to put multiple entries in the HPT for a single 16MB page. This capability is called mixed page-size segment (MPSS). With MPSS, there are two relevant page sizes: the base page size, which is the size used in searching the HPT, and the actual page size, which is the size indicated in the HPT entry. [ Note that the actual page size is always >= base page size ]. We use "ibm,segment-page-sizes" device tree node to advertise the MPSS support to PAPR guest. The penc encoding indicates whether we support a specific combination of base page size and actual page size in the same segment. We also use the penc value in the LP encoding of HPTE entry. This patch exposes MPSS support to KVM guest by advertising the feature via "ibm,segment-page-sizes". It also adds the necessary changes to decode the base page size and the actual page size correctly from the HPTE entry.

With HV KVM, some high-frequency hypercalls such as H_ENTER are handled in real mode, and need to access the memslots array for the guest. Accessing the memslots array is safe, because we hold the SRCU read lock for the whole time that a guest vcpu is running. However, the checks that kvm_memslots() does when lockdep is enabled are potentially unsafe in real mode, when only the linear mapping is available. Furthermore, kvm_memslots() can be called from a secondary CPU thread, which is an offline CPU from the point of view of the host kernel, and is not running the task which holds the SRCU read lock. To avoid false positives in the checks in kvm_memslots(), and to avoid possible side effects from doing the checks in real mode, this replaces kvm_memslots() with kvm_memslots_raw() in all the places that execute in real mode. kvm_memslots_raw() is a new function that is like kvm_memslots() but uses rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() instead of kvm_dereference_check().

This corrects the usage of the tlbie (TLB invalidate entry) instruction in HV KVM. The tlbie instruction changed between PPC970 and POWER7. On the PPC970, the bit to select large vs. small page is in the instruction, not in the RB register value. This changes the code to use the correct form on PPC970. On POWER7 we were calculating the AVAL (Abbreviated Virtual Address, Lower) field of the RB value incorrectly for 64k pages. This fixes it. Since we now have several cases to handle for the tlbie instruction, this factors out the code to do a sequence of tlbies into a new function, do_tlbies(), and calls that from the various places where the code was doing tlbie instructions inline. It also makes kvmppc_h_bulk_remove() use the same global_invalidates() function for determining whether to do local or global TLB invalidations as is used in other places, for consistency, and also to make sure that kvm->arch.need_tlb_flush gets updated properly.

Powerpc architecture uses a hash based page table mechanism for mapping virtual addresses to physical address. The architecture require this hash page table to be physically contiguous. With KVM on Powerpc currently we use early reservation mechanism for allocating guest hash page table. This implies that we need to reserve a big memory region to ensure we can create large number of guest simultaneously with KVM on Power. Another disadvantage is that the reserved memory is not available to rest of the subsystems and and that implies we limit the total available memory in the host. This patch series switch the guest hash page table allocation to use contiguous memory allocator.

At present, the code that determines whether a HPT entry has changed, and thus needs to be sent to userspace when it is copying the HPT, doesn't consider a hardware update to the reference and change bits (R and C) in the HPT entries to constitute a change that needs to be sent to userspace. This adds code to check for changes in R and C when we are scanning the HPT to find changed entries, and adds code to set the changed flag for the HPTE when we update the R and C bits in the guest view of the HPTE. Since we now need to set the HPTE changed flag in book3s_64_mmu_hv.c as well as book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c, we move the note_hpte_modification() function into kvm_book3s_64.h. Current Linux guest kernels don't use the hardware updates of R and C in the HPT, so this change won't affect them. Linux (or other) kernels might in future want to use the R and C bits and have them correctly transferred across when a guest is migrated, so it is better to correct this deficiency.

A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor. Reads on this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes create and/or remove entries in the HPT. There is a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl. The ioctl takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to read out and a set of flags. The flags indicate whether the user is intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in the first doubleword). This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for live migration. Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs). When the first pass reaches the end of the HPT, it returns from the read. Subsequent reads only return information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read. A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last read finished will return 0 bytes. The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the invalid entries. Each block of data starts with a header that indicates the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of invalid entries following those valid entries. The valid entries, 16 bytes each, follow the header. The invalid entries are not explicitly represented.

This uses a bit in our record of the guest view of the HPTE to record when the HPTE gets modified. We use a reserved bit for this, and ensure that this bit is always cleared in HPTE values returned to the guest. The recording of modified HPTEs is only done if other code indicates its interest by setting kvm->arch.hpte_mod_interest to a non-zero value. The reason for this is that when later commits add facilities for userspace to read the HPT, the first pass of reading the HPT will be quicker if there are no (or very few) HPTEs marked as modified, rather than having most HPTEs marked as modified.

This adds a new ioctl to enable userspace to control the size of the guest hashed page table (HPT) and to clear it out when resetting the guest. The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl is a VM ioctl and takes as its parameter a pointer to a u32 containing the desired order of the HPT (log base 2 of the size in bytes), which is updated on successful return to the actual order of the HPT which was allocated. There must be no vcpus running at the time of this ioctl. To enforce this, we now keep a count of the number of vcpus running in kvm->arch.vcpus_running. If the ioctl is called when a HPT has already been allocated, we don't reallocate the HPT but just clear it out. We first clear the kvm->arch.rma_setup_done flag, which has two effects: (a) since we hold the kvm->lock mutex, it will prevent any vcpus from starting to run until we're done, and (b) it means that the first vcpu to run after we're done will re-establish the VRMA if necessary. If userspace doesn't call this ioctl before running the first vcpu, the kernel will allocate a default-sized HPT at that point. We do it then rather than when creating the VM, as the code did previously, so that userspace has a chance to do the ioctl if it wants. When allocating the HPT, we can allocate either from the kernel page allocator, or from the preallocated pool. If userspace is asking for a different size from the preallocated HPTs, we first try to allocate using the kernel page allocator. Then we try to allocate from the preallocated pool, and then if that fails, we try allocating decreasing sizes from the kernel page allocator, down to the minimum size allowed (256kB). Note that the kernel page allocator limits allocations to 1 << CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER pages, which by default corresponds to 16MB (on 64-bit powerpc, at least).

This adds the infrastructure to enable us to page out pages underneath a Book3S HV guest, on processors that support virtualized partition memory, that is, POWER7. Instead of pinning all the guest's pages, we now look in the host userspace Linux page tables to find the mapping for a given guest page. Then, if the userspace Linux PTE gets invalidated, kvm_unmap_hva() gets called for that address, and we replace all the guest HPTEs that refer to that page with absent HPTEs, i.e. ones with the valid bit clear and the HPTE_V_ABSENT bit set, which will cause an HDSI when the guest tries to access them. Finally, the page fault handler is extended to reinstantiate the guest HPTE when the guest tries to access a page which has been paged out. Since we can't intercept the guest DSI and ISI interrupts on PPC970, we still have to pin all the guest pages on PPC970. We have a new flag, kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers, that indicates whether we can page guest pages out. If it is not set, the MMU notifier callbacks do nothing and everything operates as before.

This provides the low-level support for MMIO emulation in Book3S HV guests. When the guest tries to map a page which is not covered by any memslot, that page is taken to be an MMIO emulation page. Instead of inserting a valid HPTE, we insert an HPTE that has the valid bit clear but another hypervisor software-use bit set, which we call HPTE_V_ABSENT, to indicate that this is an absent page. An absent page is treated much like a valid page as far as guest hcalls (H_ENTER, H_REMOVE, H_READ etc.) are concerned, except of course that an absent HPTE doesn't need to be invalidated with tlbie since it was never valid as far as the hardware is concerned. When the guest accesses a page for which there is an absent HPTE, it will take a hypervisor data storage interrupt (HDSI) since we now set the VPM1 bit in the LPCR. Our HDSI handler for HPTE-not-present faults looks up the hash table and if it finds an absent HPTE mapping the requested virtual address, will switch to kernel mode and handle the fault in kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault(), which at present just calls kvmppc_hv_emulate_mmio() to set up the MMIO emulation.

This expands the reverse mapping array to contain two links for each HPTE which are used to link together HPTEs that correspond to the same guest logical page. Each circular list of HPTEs is pointed to by the rmap array entry for the guest logical page, pointed to by the relevant memslot. Links are 32-bit HPT entry indexes rather than full 64-bit pointers, to save space. We use 3 of the remaining 32 bits in the rmap array entries as a lock bit, a referenced bit and a present bit (the present bit is needed since HPTE index 0 is valid).

Then, in kvmppc_h_enter() we check that the cache bits in the HPTE that the guest wants to insert match the cache bits in the slot_phys array entry. However, we do allow the guest to create what it thinks is a non-cacheable or write-through mapping to memory that is actually cacheable, so that we can use normal system memory as part of an emulated device later on.

This removes the code from kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region() that looked up the VMA for the region being added and called hva_to_page to get the pfns for the memory. We have no guarantee that there will be anything mapped there at the time of the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION ioctl call; userspace can do that ioctl and then map memory into the region later. Instead we defer looking up the pfn for each memory page until it is needed, which generally means when the guest does an H_ENTER hcall on the page. Since we can't call get_user_pages in real mode, if we don't already have the pfn for the page, kvmppc_h_enter() will return H_TOO_HARD and we then call kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter() once we get back to kernel context. That calls kvmppc_get_guest_page() to get the pfn for the page, and then calls back to kvmppc_h_enter() to redo the HPTE insertion. When the first vcpu starts executing, we need to have the RMO or VRMA region mapped so that the guest's real mode accesses will work. Thus we now have a check in kvmppc_vcpu_run() to see if the RMO/VRMA is set up and if not, call kvmppc_hv_setup_rma(). It checks if the memslot starting at guest physical 0 now has RMO memory mapped there; if so it sets it up for the guest, otherwise on POWER7 it sets up the VRMA. The function that does that, kvmppc_map_vrma, is now a bit simpler, as it calls kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter instead of creating the HPTE itself. Since we are now potentially updating entries in the slot_phys[] arrays from multiple vcpu threads, we now have a spinlock protecting those updates to ensure that we don't lose track of any references to pages.

At present, our implementation of H_ENTER only makes one try at locking each slot that it looks at, and doesn't even retry the ldarx/stdcx. atomic update sequence that it uses to attempt to lock the slot. Thus it can return the H_PTEG_FULL error unnecessarily, particularly when the H_EXACT flag is set, meaning that the caller wants a specific PTEG slot. This improves the situation by making a second pass when no free HPTE slot is found, where we spin until we succeed in locking each slot in turn and then check whether it is full while we hold the lock. If the second pass fails, then we return H_PTEG_FULL. This also moves lock_hpte to a header file (since later commits in this series will need to use it from other source files) and renames it to try_lock_hpte, which is a somewhat less misleading name.

This adds an array that parallels the guest hashed page table (HPT), that is, it has one entry per HPTE, used to store the guest's view of the second doubleword of the corresponding HPTE. The first doubleword in the HPTE is the same as the guest's idea of it, so we don't need to store a copy, but the second doubleword in the HPTE has the real page number rather than the guest's logical page number. This allows us to remove the back_translate() and reverse_xlate() functions. This "reverse mapping" array is vmalloc'd, meaning that to access it in real mode we have to walk the kernel's page tables explicitly. That is done by the new real_vmalloc_addr() function. (In fact this returns an address in the linear mapping, so the result is usable both in real mode and in virtual mode.) There are also some minor cleanups here: moving the definitions of HPT_ORDER etc. to a header file and defining HPT_NPTE for HPT_NPTEG << 3.

This improves I/O performance for guests using the PAPR paravirtualization interface by making the H_PUT_TCE hcall faster, by implementing it in real mode. H_PUT_TCE is used for updating virtual IOMMU tables, and is used both for virtual I/O and for real I/O in the PAPR interface. Since this moves the IOMMU tables into the kernel, we define a new KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE ioctl to allow qemu to create the tables. The ioctl returns a file descriptor which can be used to mmap the newly created table. The qemu driver models use them in the same way as userspace managed tables, but they can be updated directly by the guest with a real-mode H_PUT_TCE implementation, reducing the number of host/guest context switches during guest IO. There are certain circumstances where it is useful for userland qemu to write to the TCE table even if the kernel H_PUT_TCE path is used most of the time. Specifically, allowing this will avoid awkwardness when we need to reset the table. More importantly, we will in the future need to write the table in order to restore its state after a checkpoint resume or migration.

This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors, specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor architecture other than the one that the hardware implements. This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code to include/linux/kvm.h. Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support (i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only do one or the other. This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present. Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious restriction. With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry to those exception handlers. We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage, hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist interrupts, so we have to handle those. In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space. We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it. We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers, so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct. The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition (partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction. This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now, since huge pages can't be paged or swapped. This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

In the process of generalizing as much code as possible, I also moved the shadow vcpu code together to a generic book3s file. Unfortunately the location of the shadow vcpu is different on 32 and 64 bit, so we need a wrapper function to tell us where it is. That sounded like a perfect fit for a subarch specific header file. Here we can put anything that needs to be different between those two. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: NStephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This functionality is definitely experimental, but is capable of running unmodified PowerPC 440 Linux kernels as guests on a PowerPC 440 host. (Only tested with 440EP "Bamboo" guests so far, but with appropriate userspace support other SoC/board combinations should work.) See Documentation/powerpc/kvm_440.txt for technical details.
