    KVM: PPC: Implement MMU notifiers for Book3S HV guests · 342d3db7
    Paul Mackerras 提交于
    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.
