      KVM: PPC: Convert DAR to shared page. · 5e030186
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      The DAR register contains the address a data page fault occured at. This
      register behaves pretty much like a simple data storage register that gets
      written to on data faults. There is no hypervisor interaction required on
      read or write.
      
      This patch converts all users of the current field to the shared page.

      KVM: PPC: Convert DSISR to shared page · d562de48
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      The DSISR register contains information about a data page fault. It is fully
      read/write from inside the guest context and we don't need to worry about
      interacting based on writes of this register.

      KVM: PPC: Convert MSR to shared page · 666e7252
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      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. See the documentation
      for a list of MSR bits that are safe to be set from inside the guest.

      KVM: PPC: Introduce shared page · 96bc451a
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      For transparent variable sharing between the hypervisor and guest, I introduce
      a shared page. This shared page will contain all the registers the guest can
      read and write safely without exiting guest context.
      
      This patch only implements the stubs required for the basic structure of the
      shared page. The actual register moving follows.
