The MMCR2 register is available twice, one time with number 785 (privileged access), and one time with number 769 (unprivileged, but it can be disabled completely). In former times, the Linux kernel was using the unprivileged register 769 only, but since commit 8dd75ccb ("powerpc: Use privileged SPR number for MMCR2"), it uses the privileged register 785 instead. The KVM-PR code then of course also switched to use the SPR 785, but this is causing older guest kernels to crash, since these kernels still access 769 instead. So to support older kernels with KVM-PR again, we have to support register 769 in KVM-PR, too.

POWER8 has one virtual timebase (VTB) register per subcore, not one per CPU thread. The HV KVM code currently treats VTB as a per-thread register, which can lead to spurious soft lockup messages from guests which use the VTB as the time source for the soft lockup detector. (CPUs before POWER8 did not have the VTB register.) For HV KVM, this fixes the problem by making only the primary thread in each virtual core save and restore the VTB value. With this, the VTB state becomes part of the kvmppc_vcore structure. This also means that "piggybacking" of multiple virtual cores onto one subcore is not possible on POWER8, because then the virtual cores would share a single VTB register. PR KVM emulates a VTB register, which is per-vcpu because PR KVM has no notion of CPU threads or SMT. For PR KVM we move the VTB state into the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct.

When compiling the KVM code for POWER with "make C=1", sparse complains about functions missing proper prototypes and a 64-bit constant missing the ULL prefix. Let's fix this by making the functions static or by including the proper header with the prototypes, and by appending a ULL prefix to the constant PPC_MPPE_ADDRESS_MASK.

We handle FSCR feature bits (well, TAR only really today) lazily when the guest starts using them. So when a guest activates the bit and later uses that feature we enable it for real in hardware. However, when the guest stops using that bit we don't stop setting it in hardware. That means we can potentially lose a trap that the guest expects to happen because it thinks a feature is not active. This patch adds support to drop TAR when then guest turns it off in FSCR. While at it it also restricts FSCR access to 64bit systems - 32bit ones don't have it. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

We use time base for PURR and SPURR emulation with PR KVM since we are emulating a single threaded core. When using time base we need to make sure that we don't accumulate time spent in the host in PURR and SPURR value.

There are LE Linux guests out there that don't handle hypercalls correctly. Instead of interpreting the instruction stream from device tree as big endian they assume it's a little endian instruction stream and fail. When we see an illegal instruction from such a byte reversed instruction stream, bail out graciously and just declare every hcall as error. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

POWER8 introduces a new facility called the "Event Based Branch" facility. It contains of a few registers that indicate where a guest should branch to when a defined event occurs and it's in PR mode. We don't want to really enable EBB as it will create a big mess with !PR guest mode while hardware is in PR and we don't really emulate the PMU anyway. So instead, let's just leave it at emulation of all its registers. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

The shared (magic) page is a data structure that contains often used supervisor privileged SPRs accessible via memory to the user to reduce the number of exits we have to take to read/write them. When we actually share this structure with the guest we have to maintain it in guest endianness, because some of the patch tricks only work with native endian load/store operations. Since we only share the structure with either host or guest in little endian on book3s_64 pr mode, we don't have to worry about booke or book3s hv. For booke, the shared struct stays big endian. For book3s_64 hv we maintain the struct in host native endian, since it never gets shared with the guest. For book3s_64 pr we introduce a variable that tells us which endianness the shared struct is in and route every access to it through helper inline functions that evaluate this variable.

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.

When running on top of pHyp, the hypercall instruction "sc 1" goes straight into pHyp without trapping in supervisor mode. So if we want to support PAPR guest in this configuration we need to add a second way of accessing PAPR hypercalls, preferably with the exact same semantics except for the instruction. So let's overlay an officially reserved instruction and emulate PAPR hypercalls whenever we hit that one. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This adds basic emulation of the PURR and SPURR registers. We assume we are emulating a single-threaded core, so these advance at the same rate as the timebase. A Linux kernel running on a POWER7 expects to be able to access these registers and is not prepared to handle a program interrupt on accessing them. This also adds a very minimal emulation of the DSCR (data stream control register). Writes are ignored and reads return zero.

When reading and writing SPRs, every SPR emulation piece had to read or write the respective GPR the value was read from or stored in itself. This approach is pretty prone to failure. What if we accidentally implement mfspr emulation where we just do "break" and nothing else? Suddenly we would get a random value in the return register - which is always a bad idea. So let's consolidate the generic code paths and only give the core specific SPR handling code readily made variables to read/write from/to. Functionally, this patch doesn't change anything, but it increases the readability of the code and makes is less prone to bugs. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Instructions on PPC are pretty similarly encoded. So instead of every instruction emulation code decoding the instruction fields itself, we can move that code to more generic places and rely on the compiler to optimize the unused bits away. This has 2 advantages. It makes the code smaller and it makes the code less error prone, as the instruction fields are always available, so accidental misusage is reduced. Functionally, this patch doesn't change anything. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This patch moves to_svcpu towards a get/put model which allows us to disable preemption while accessing the shadow vcpu fields in the PACA. That way we can run preemptible and everyone's happy!

The SRR0 and SRR1 registers contain cached values of the PC and MSR respectively. They get written to by the hypervisor when an interrupt occurs or directly by the kernel. They are also used to tell the rfi(d) instruction where to jump to. Because it only gets touched on defined events that, it's very simple to share with the guest.

One of the most obvious registers to share with the guest directly is the MSR. The MSR contains the "interrupts enabled" flag which the guest has to toggle in critical sections. So in order to bring the overhead of interrupt en- and disabling down, let's put msr into the shared page. Keep in mind that even though you can fully read its contents, writing to it doesn't always update all state. There are a few safe fields that don't require hypervisor interaction.
