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>

Time for which the hrtimer is started for decrementer emulation is calculated using tb_ticks_per_usec. While hrtimer uses the clockevent for DEC reprogramming (if needed) and which calculate timebase ticks using the multiplier and shifter mechanism implemented within clockevent layer. It was observed that this conversion (timebase->time->timebase) are not correct because the mechanism are not consistent. In our setup it adds 2% jitter. With this patch clockevent multiplier and shifter mechanism are used when starting hrtimer for decrementer emulation. Now the jitter is < 0.5%.

There are 4 conditional trapping instructions: tw, twi, td, tdi. The ones with an i take an immediate comparison, the others compare two registers. All of them arrive in the emulator when the condition to trap was successfully fulfilled. Unfortunately, we were only implementing the i versions so far, so let's also add support for the other two. This fixes kernel booting with recents book3s_32 guest kernels.

When emulating updating load/store instructions (lwzu, stwu, ...) we need to write the effective address of the load/store into a register. Currently, we write the physical address in there, which is very wrong. So instead let's save off where the virtual fault was on MMIO and use that information as value to put into the register. While at it, also move the XOP variants of the above instructions to the new scheme of using the already known vaddr instead of calculating it themselves.

Decrementers are now properly driven by TCR/TSR, and the guest has full read/write access to these registers. The decrementer keeps ticking (and setting the TSR bit) regardless of whether the interrupts are enabled with TCR. The decrementer stops at zero, rather than going negative. Decrementers (and FITs, once implemented) are delivered as level-triggered interrupts -- dequeued when the TSR bit is cleared, not on delivery.

This allows additional registers to be accessed by the guest in PR-mode KVM without trapping. SPRG4-7 are readable from userspace. On booke, KVM will sync these registers when it enters the guest, so that accesses from guest userspace will work. The guest kernel, OTOH, must consistently use either the real registers or the shared area between exits. This also applies to the already-paravirted SPRG3. On non-booke, it's not clear to what extent SPRG4-7 are supported (they're not architected for book3s, but exist on at least some classic chips). They are copied in the get/set regs ioctls, but I do not see any non-booke emulation. I also do not see any syncing with real registers (in PR-mode) including the user-readable SPRG3. This patch should not make that situation any worse. Signed-off-by: NScott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

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. Hypervisor and guest both have full r/w access. This patch converts all users of the current field to the shared page.

We already have some inline fuctions we use to access vcpu or svcpu structs, depending on whether we're on booke or book3s. Since we just put a few more registers into the svcpu, we also need to make sure the respective callbacks are available and get used. So this patch moves direct use of the now in the svcpu struct fields to inline function calls. While at it, it also moves the definition of those inline function calls to respective header files for booke and book3s, greatly improving readability.

Emulation of an instruction can have different outcomes. It can succeed, fail, require MMIO, do funky BookE stuff - or it can just realize something's odd and will be fixed the next time around. Exactly that is what EMULATE_AGAIN means. Using that flag we can now tell the caller that nothing happened, but we still want to go back to the guest and see what happens next time we come around.

When we get a program interrupt in guest kernel mode, we try to emulate the instruction. If that doesn't fail, we report to the user and try again - at the exact same instruction pointer. So if the guest kernel really does trigger an invalid instruction, we loop forever. So let's better go and forward program exceptions to the guest when we don't know the instruction we're supposed to emulate.

To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early exit code, where we are still in a very transitional phase between guest and host state. Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries. To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction. That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".

All code in PPC KVM currently accesses gprs in the vcpu struct directly. While there's nothing wrong with that wrt the current way gprs are stored and loaded, it doesn't suffice for the PACA acceleration that will follow in this patchset. So let's just create little wrapper inline functions that we call whenever a GPR needs to be read from or written to. The compiled code shouldn't really change at all for now.

We treated the DEC interrupt like an edge based one. This is not true for Book3s. The DEC keeps firing until mtdec is issued again and thus clears the interrupt line. So let's implement this logic in KVM too. This patch moves the line clearing from the firing of the interrupt to the mtdec emulation. This makes PPC64 guests work without AGGRESSIVE_DEC defined.

Existing KVM statistics are either just counters (kvm_stat) reported for KVM generally or trace based aproaches like kvm_trace. For KVM on powerpc we had the need to track the timings of the different exit types. While this could be achieved parsing data created with a kvm_trace extension this adds too much overhead (at least on embedded PowerPC) slowing down the workloads we wanted to measure. Therefore this patch adds a in-kernel exit timing statistic to the powerpc kvm code. These statistic is available per vm&vcpu under the kvm debugfs directory. As this statistic is low, but still some overhead it can be enabled via a .config entry and should be off by default. Since this patch touched all powerpc kvm_stat code anyway this code is now merged and simplified together with the exit timing statistic code (still working with exit timing disabled in .config).
