      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Align physical and virtual CPU thread numbers · e0b7ec05
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      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.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't set DABR on POWER8 · eee7ff9d
      Michael Neuling 提交于
      POWER8 doesn't have the DABR and DABRX registers; instead it has
      new DAWR/DAWRX registers, which will be handled in a later patch.

      kvm/ppc: IRQ disabling cleanup · 6c85f52b
      Scott Wood 提交于
      Simplify the handling of lazy EE by going directly from fully-enabled
      to hard-disabled.  This replaces the lazy_irq_pending() check
      (including its misplaced kvm_guest_exit() call).
      
      As suggested by Tiejun Chen, move the interrupt disabling into
      kvmppc_prepare_to_enter() rather than have each caller do it.  Also
      move the IRQ enabling on heavyweight exit into
      kvmppc_prepare_to_enter().

      KVM: PPC: Book3S: MMIO emulation support for little endian guests · 73601775
      Cédric Le Goater 提交于
      MMIO emulation reads the last instruction executed by the guest
      and then emulates. If the guest is running in Little Endian order,
      or more generally in a different endian order of the host, the
      instruction needs to be byte-swapped before being emulated.
      
      This patch adds a helper routine which tests the endian order of
      the host and the guest in order to decide whether a byteswap is
      needed or not. It is then used to byteswap the last instruction
      of the guest in the endian order of the host before MMIO emulation
      is performed.
      
      Finally, kvmppc_handle_load() of kvmppc_handle_store() are modified
      to reverse the endianness of the MMIO if required.
