We create a guest MSR from scratch when delivering exceptions in a few places. Instead of extracting LPCR[ILE] and inserting it into MSR_LE each time, we simply create a new variable intr_msr which contains the entire MSR to use. For a little-endian guest, userspace needs to set the ILE (interrupt little-endian) bit in the LPCR for each vcpu (or at least one vcpu in each virtual core).

The DABRX (DABR extension) register on POWER7 processors provides finer control over which accesses cause a data breakpoint interrupt. It contains 3 bits which indicate whether to enable accesses in user, kernel and hypervisor modes respectively to cause data breakpoint interrupts, plus one bit that enables both real mode and virtual mode accesses to cause interrupts. Currently, KVM sets DABRX to allow both kernel and user accesses to cause interrupts while in the guest. This adds support for the guest to specify other values for DABRX. PAPR defines a H_SET_XDABR hcall to allow the guest to set both DABR and DABRX with one call. This adds a real-mode implementation of H_SET_XDABR, which shares most of its code with the existing H_SET_DABR implementation. To support this, we add a per-vcpu field to store the DABRX value plus code to get and set it via the ONE_REG interface. For Linux guests to use this new hcall, userspace needs to add "hcall-xdabr" to the set of strings in the /chosen/hypertas-functions property in the device tree. If userspace does this and then migrates the guest to a host where the kernel doesn't include this patch, then userspace will need to implement H_SET_XDABR by writing the specified DABR value to the DABR using the ONE_REG interface. In that case, the old kernel will set DABRX to DABRX_USER | DABRX_KERNEL. That should still work correctly, at least for Linux guests, since Linux guests cope with getting data breakpoint interrupts in modes that weren't requested by just ignoring the interrupt, and Linux guests never set DABRX_BTI. The other thing this does is to make H_SET_DABR and H_SET_XDABR work on POWER8, which has the DAWR and DAWRX instead of DABR/X. Guests that know about POWER8 should use H_SET_MODE rather than H_SET_[X]DABR, but guests running in POWER7 compatibility mode will still use H_SET_[X]DABR. For them, this adds the logic to convert DABR/X values into DAWR/X values on POWER8. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This adds fields to the struct kvm_vcpu_arch to store the new guest-accessible SPRs on POWER8, adds code to the get/set_one_reg functions to allow userspace to access this state, and adds code to the guest entry and exit to context-switch these SPRs between host and guest. Note that DPDES (Directed Privileged Doorbell Exception State) is shared between threads on a core; hence we store it in struct kvmppc_vcore and have the master thread save and restore it.

On a threaded processor such as POWER7, we group VCPUs into virtual cores and arrange that the VCPUs in a virtual core run on the same physical core. Currently we don't enforce any correspondence between virtual thread numbers within a virtual core and physical thread numbers. Physical threads are allocated starting at 0 on a first-come first-served basis to runnable virtual threads (VCPUs). POWER8 implements a new "msgsndp" instruction which guest kernels can use to interrupt other threads in the same core or sub-core. Since the instruction takes the destination physical thread ID as a parameter, it becomes necessary to align the physical thread IDs with the virtual thread IDs, that is, to make sure virtual thread N within a virtual core always runs on physical thread N. This means that it's possible that thread 0, which is where we call __kvmppc_vcore_entry, may end up running some other vcpu than the one whose task called kvmppc_run_core(), or it may end up running no vcpu at all, if for example thread 0 of the virtual core is currently executing in userspace. However, we do need thread 0 to be responsible for switching the MMU -- a previous version of this patch that had other threads switching the MMU was found to be responsible for occasional memory corruption and machine check interrupts in the guest on POWER7 machines. To accommodate this, we no longer pass the vcpu pointer to __kvmppc_vcore_entry, but instead let the assembly code load it from the PACA. Since the assembly code will need to know the kvm pointer and the thread ID for threads which don't have a vcpu, we move the thread ID into the PACA and we add a kvm pointer to the virtual core structure. In the case where thread 0 has no vcpu to run, it still calls into kvmppc_hv_entry in order to do the MMU switch, and then naps until either its vcpu is ready to run in the guest, or some other thread needs to exit the guest. In the latter case, thread 0 jumps to the code that switches the MMU back to the host. This control flow means that now we switch the MMU before loading any guest vcpu state. Similarly, on guest exit we now save all the guest vcpu state before switching the MMU back to the host. This has required substantial code movement, making the diff rather large.

This patch adds the debug stub support on booke/bookehv. Now QEMU debug stub can use hw breakpoint, watchpoint and software breakpoint to debug guest. This is how we save/restore debug register context when switching between guest, userspace and kernel user-process: When QEMU is running -> thread->debug_reg == QEMU debug register context. -> Kernel will handle switching the debug register on context switch. -> no vcpu_load() called QEMU makes ioctls (except RUN) -> This will call vcpu_load() -> should not change context. -> Some ioctls can change vcpu debug register, context saved in vcpu->debug_regs QEMU Makes RUN ioctl -> Save thread->debug_reg on STACK -> Store thread->debug_reg == vcpu->debug_reg -> load thread->debug_reg -> RUN VCPU ( So thread points to vcpu context ) Context switch happens When VCPU running -> makes vcpu_load() should not load any context -> kernel loads the vcpu context as thread->debug_regs points to vcpu context. On heavyweight_exit -> Load the context saved on stack in thread->debug_reg Currently we do not support debug resource emulation to guest, On debug exception, always exit to user space irrespective of user space is expecting the debug exception or not. If this is unexpected exception (breakpoint/watchpoint event not set by userspace) then let us leave the action on user space. This is similar to what it was before, only thing is that now we have proper exit state available to user space.

Currently we request write access to all pages that get mapped into the guest, even if the guest is only loading from the page. This reduces the effectiveness of KSM because it means that we unshare every page we access. Also, we always set the changed (C) bit in the guest HPTE if it allows writing, even for a guest load. This fixes both these problems. We pass an 'iswrite' flag to the mmu.xlate() functions and to kvmppc_mmu_map_page() to indicate whether the access is a load or a store. The mmu.xlate() functions now only set C for stores. kvmppc_gfn_to_pfn() now calls gfn_to_pfn_prot() instead of gfn_to_pfn() so that it can indicate whether we need write access to the page, and get back a 'writable' flag to indicate whether the page is writable or not. If that 'writable' flag is clear, we then make the host HPTE read-only even if the guest HPTE allowed writing. This means that we can get a protection fault when the guest writes to a page that it has mapped read-write but which is read-only on the host side (perhaps due to KSM having merged the page). Thus we now call kvmppc_handle_pagefault() for protection faults as well as HPTE not found faults. In kvmppc_handle_pagefault(), if the access was allowed by the guest HPTE and we thus need to install a new host HPTE, we then need to remove the old host HPTE if there is one. This is done with a new function, kvmppc_mmu_unmap_page(), which uses kvmppc_mmu_pte_vflush() to find and remove the old host HPTE. Since the memslot-related functions require the KVM SRCU read lock to be held, this adds srcu_read_lock/unlock pairs around the calls to kvmppc_handle_pagefault(). Finally, this changes kvmppc_mmu_book3s_32_xlate_pte() to not ignore guest HPTEs that don't permit access, and to return -EPERM for accesses that are not permitted by the page protections.

This adds a per-VM mutex to provide mutual exclusion between vcpus for accesses to and updates of the guest hashed page table (HPT). This also makes the code use single-byte writes to the HPT entry when updating of the reference (R) and change (C) bits. The reason for doing this, rather than writing back the whole HPTE, is that on non-PAPR virtual machines, the guest OS might be writing to the HPTE concurrently, and writing back the whole HPTE might conflict with that. Also, real hardware does single-byte writes to update R and C. The new mutex is taken in kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_xlate() when reading the HPT and updating R and/or C, and in the PAPR HPT update hcalls (H_ENTER, H_REMOVE, etc.). Having the mutex means that we don't need to use a hypervisor lock bit in the HPT update hcalls, and we don't need to be careful about the order in which the bytes of the HPTE are updated by those hcalls. The other change here is to make emulated TLB invalidations (tlbie) effective across all vcpus. To do this we call kvmppc_mmu_pte_vflush for all vcpus in kvmppc_ppc_book3s_64_tlbie(). For 32-bit, this makes the setting of the accessed and dirty bits use single-byte writes, and makes tlbie invalidate shadow HPTEs for all vcpus. With this, PR KVM can successfully run SMP guests.

This adds the code to interpret 64k HPTEs in the guest hashed page table (HPT), 64k SLB entries, and to tell the guest about 64k pages in kvm_vm_ioctl_get_smmu_info(). Guest 64k pages are still shadowed by 4k pages. This also adds another hash table to the four we have already in book3s_mmu_hpte.c to allow us to find all the PTEs that we have instantiated that match a given 64k guest page. The tlbie instruction changed starting with POWER6 to use a bit in the RB operand to indicate large page invalidations, and to use other RB bits to indicate the base and actual page sizes and the segment size. 64k pages came in slightly earlier, with POWER5++. We use one bit in vcpu->arch.hflags to indicate that the emulated cpu supports 64k pages, and another to indicate that it has the new tlbie definition. The KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO ioctl presents a bit of a problem, because the MMU capabilities depend on which CPU model we're emulating, but it is a VM ioctl not a VCPU ioctl and therefore doesn't get passed a VCPU fd. In addition, commonly-used userspace (QEMU) calls it before setting the PVR for any VCPU. Therefore, as a best effort we look at the first vcpu in the VM and return 64k pages or not depending on its capabilities. We also make the PVR default to the host PVR on recent CPUs that support 1TB segments (and therefore multiple page sizes as well) so that KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO will include 64k page and 1TB segment support on those CPUs.

Currently PR-style KVM keeps the volatile guest register values (R0 - R13, CR, LR, CTR, XER, PC) in a shadow_vcpu struct rather than the main kvm_vcpu struct. For 64-bit, the shadow_vcpu exists in two places, a kmalloc'd struct and in the PACA, and it gets copied back and forth in kvmppc_core_vcpu_load/put(), because the real-mode code can't rely on being able to access the kmalloc'd struct. This changes the code to copy the volatile values into the shadow_vcpu as one of the last things done before entering the guest. Similarly the values are copied back out of the shadow_vcpu to the kvm_vcpu immediately after exiting the guest. We arrange for interrupts to be still disabled at this point so that we can't get preempted on 64-bit and end up copying values from the wrong PACA. This means that the accessor functions in kvm_book3s.h for these registers are greatly simplified, and are same between PR and HV KVM. In places where accesses to shadow_vcpu fields are now replaced by accesses to the kvm_vcpu, we can also remove the svcpu_get/put pairs. Finally, on 64-bit, we don't need the kmalloc'd struct at all any more. With this, the time to read the PVR one million times in a loop went from 567.7ms to 575.5ms (averages of 6 values), an increase of about 1.4% for this worse-case test for guest entries and exits. The standard deviation of the measurements is about 11ms, so the difference is only marginally significant statistically.

This enables us to use the Processor Compatibility Register (PCR) on POWER7 to put the processor into architecture 2.05 compatibility mode when running a guest. In this mode the new instructions and registers that were introduced on POWER7 are disabled in user mode. This includes all the VSX facilities plus several other instructions such as ldbrx, stdbrx, popcntw, popcntd, etc. To select this mode, we have a new register accessible through the set/get_one_reg interface, called KVM_REG_PPC_ARCH_COMPAT. Setting this to zero gives the full set of capabilities of the processor. Setting it to one of the "logical" PVR values defined in PAPR puts the vcpu into the compatibility mode for the corresponding architecture level. The supported values are: 0x0f000002 Architecture 2.05 (POWER6) 0x0f000003 Architecture 2.06 (POWER7) 0x0f100003 Architecture 2.06+ (POWER7+) Since the PCR is per-core, the architecture compatibility level and the corresponding PCR value are stored in the struct kvmppc_vcore, and are therefore shared between all vcpus in a virtual core.

POWER7 and later IBM server processors have a register called the Program Priority Register (PPR), which controls the priority of each hardware CPU SMT thread, and affects how fast it runs compared to other SMT threads. This priority can be controlled by writing to the PPR or by use of a set of instructions of the form or rN,rN,rN which are otherwise no-ops but have been defined to set the priority to particular levels. This adds code to context switch the PPR when entering and exiting guests and to make the PPR value accessible through the SET/GET_ONE_REG interface. When entering the guest, we set the PPR as late as possible, because if we are setting a low thread priority it will make the code run slowly from that point on. Similarly, the first-level interrupt handlers save the PPR value in the PACA very early on, and set the thread priority to the medium level, so that the interrupt handling code runs at a reasonable speed.

This adds the ability to have a separate LPCR (Logical Partitioning Control Register) value relating to a guest for each virtual core, rather than only having a single value for the whole VM. This corresponds to what real POWER hardware does, where there is a LPCR per CPU thread but most of the fields are required to have the same value on all active threads in a core. The per-virtual-core LPCR can be read and written using the GET/SET_ONE_REG interface. Userspace can can only modify the following fields of the LPCR value: DPFD Default prefetch depth ILE Interrupt little-endian TC Translation control (secondary HPT hash group search disable) We still maintain a per-VM default LPCR value in kvm->arch.lpcr, which contains bits relating to memory management, i.e. the Virtualized Partition Memory (VPM) bits and the bits relating to guest real mode. When this default value is updated, the update needs to be propagated to the per-vcore values, so we add a kvmppc_update_lpcr() helper to do that.

This allows guests to have a different timebase origin from the host. This is needed for migration, where a guest can migrate from one host to another and the two hosts might have a different timebase origin. However, the timebase seen by the guest must not go backwards, and should go forwards only by a small amount corresponding to the time taken for the migration. Therefore this provides a new per-vcpu value accessed via the one_reg interface using the new KVM_REG_PPC_TB_OFFSET identifier. This value defaults to 0 and is not modified by KVM. On entering the guest, this value is added onto the timebase, and on exiting the guest, it is subtracted from the timebase. This is only supported for recent POWER hardware which has the TBU40 (timebase upper 40 bits) register. Writing to the TBU40 register only alters the upper 40 bits of the timebase, leaving the lower 24 bits unchanged. This provides a way to modify the timebase for guest migration without disturbing the synchronization of the timebase registers across CPU cores. The kernel rounds up the value given to a multiple of 2^24. Timebase values stored in KVM structures (struct kvm_vcpu, struct kvmppc_vcore, etc.) are stored as host timebase values. The timebase values in the dispatch trace log need to be guest timebase values, however, since that is read directly by the guest. This moves the setting of vcpu->arch.dec_expires on guest exit to a point after we have restored the host timebase so that vcpu->arch.dec_expires is a host timebase value.

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.

The XICS emulation supports up to 1048560 interrupt sources. Interrupt source numbers below 16 are reserved; 0 is used to mean no interrupt and 2 is used for IPIs. Internally these are represented in blocks of 1024, called ICS (interrupt controller source) entities, but that is not visible to userspace. Each vcpu gets one ICP (interrupt controller presentation) entity, used to store the per-vcpu state such as vcpu priority, pending interrupt state, IPI request, etc. This does not include any API or any way to connect vcpus to their ICP state; that will be added in later patches.

At present, the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl doesn't report modifications done by the host to the virtual processor areas (VPAs) and dispatch trace logs (DTLs) registered by the guest. This is because those modifications are done either in real mode or in the host kernel context, and in neither case does the access go through the guest's HPT, and thus no change (C) bit gets set in the guest's HPT. However, the changes done by the host do need to be tracked so that the modified pages get transferred when doing live migration. In order to track these modifications, this adds a dirty flag to the struct representing the VPA/DTL areas, and arranges to set the flag when the VPA/DTL gets modified by the host. Then, when we are collecting the dirty log, we also check the dirty flags for the VPA and DTL for each vcpu and set the relevant bit in the dirty log if necessary. Doing this also means we now need to keep track of the guest physical address of the VPA/DTL areas. So as not to lose track of modifications to a VPA/DTL area when it gets unregistered, or when a new area gets registered in its place, we need to transfer the dirty state to the rmap chain. This adds code to kvmppc_unpin_guest_page() to do that if the area was dirty. To simplify that code, we now require that all VPA, DTL and SLB shadow buffer areas fit within a single host page. Guests already comply with this requirement because pHyp requires that these areas not cross a 4k boundary.

The CFAR (Come-From Address Register) is a useful debugging aid that exists on POWER7 processors. Currently HV KVM doesn't save or restore the CFAR register for guest vcpus, making the CFAR of limited use in guests. This adds the necessary code to capture the CFAR value saved in the early exception entry code (it has to be saved before any branch is executed), save it in the vcpu.arch struct, and restore it on entry to the guest.

The External Proxy Facility in FSL BookE chips allows the interrupt controller to automatically acknowledge an interrupt as soon as a core gets its pending external interrupt delivered. Today, user space implements the interrupt controller, so we need to check on it during such a cycle. This patch implements logic for user space to enable EPR exiting, disable EPR exiting and EPR exiting itself, so that user space can acknowledge an interrupt when an external interrupt has successfully been delivered into the guest vcpu.

Seems like everyone copied x86 and defined 4 private memory slots that never actually get used. Even x86 only uses 3 of the 4. These aren't exposed so there's no need to add padding.

It's easy to confuse KVM_MEMORY_SLOTS and KVM_MEM_SLOTS_NUM. One is the user accessible slots and the other is user + private. Make this more obvious.

In BookE, EPCR is defined and valid when either the HV or the 64bit category are implemented. Reflect this in the field definition. Today the only KVM target on 64bit is HV enabled, so there is no change in actual source code, but this keeps the code closer to the spec and doesn't build up artificial road blocks for a PR KVM on 64bit.

When we change or remove a HPT (hashed page table) entry, we can do either a global TLB invalidation (tlbie) that works across the whole machine, or a local invalidation (tlbiel) that only affects this core. Currently we do local invalidations if the VM has only one vcpu or if the guest requests it with the H_LOCAL flag, though the guest Linux kernel currently doesn't ever use H_LOCAL. Then, to cope with the possibility that vcpus moving around to different physical cores might expose stale TLB entries, there is some code in kvmppc_hv_entry to flush the whole TLB of entries for this VM if either this vcpu is now running on a different physical core from where it last ran, or if this physical core last ran a different vcpu. There are a number of problems on POWER7 with this as it stands: - The TLB invalidation is done per thread, whereas it only needs to be done per core, since the TLB is shared between the threads. - With the possibility of the host paging out guest pages, the use of H_LOCAL by an SMP guest is dangerous since the guest could possibly retain and use a stale TLB entry pointing to a page that had been removed from the guest. - The TLB invalidations that we do when a vcpu moves from one physical core to another are unnecessary in the case of an SMP guest that isn't using H_LOCAL. - The optimization of using local invalidations rather than global should apply to guests with one virtual core, not just one vcpu. (None of this applies on PPC970, since there we always have to invalidate the whole TLB when entering and leaving the guest, and we can't support paging out guest memory.) To fix these problems and simplify the code, we now maintain a simple cpumask of which cpus need to flush the TLB on entry to the guest. (This is indexed by cpu, though we only ever use the bits for thread 0 of each core.) Whenever we do a local TLB invalidation, we set the bits for every cpu except the bit for thread 0 of the core that we're currently running on. Whenever we enter a guest, we test and clear the bit for our core, and flush the TLB if it was set. On initial startup of the VM, and when resetting the HPT, we set all the bits in the need_tlb_flush cpumask, since any core could potentially have stale TLB entries from the previous VM to use the same LPID, or the previous contents of the HPT. Then, we maintain a count of the number of online virtual cores, and use that when deciding whether to use a local invalidation rather than the number of online vcpus. The code to make that decision is extracted out into a new function, global_invalidates(). For multi-core guests on POWER7 (i.e. when we are using mmu notifiers), we now never do local invalidations regardless of the H_LOCAL flag.

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.
