PowerPC TM functionality needs MSR TM/TS bits support in hardware level. Guest TM functionality can not be emulated with "fake" MSR (msr in magic page) TS bits. This patch syncs TM/TS bits in shadow_msr with the MSR value in magic page, so that the MSR TS value which guest sees is consistent with actual MSR bits running in guest.

This patch simulates interrupt behavior per Power ISA while injecting interrupt in PR KVM: - When interrupt happens, transactional state should be suspended. kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_reset_msr() will be invoked when injecting an interrupt.

kvmppc_save_tm() invokes store_fp_state/store_vr_state(). So it is mandatory to turn on FP/VSX/VMX MSR bits for its execution, just like what kvmppc_restore_tm() did. Previously HV KVM has turned the bits on outside of function kvmppc_save_tm(). Now we include this bit change in kvmppc_save_tm() so that the logic is cleaner. And PR KVM can reuse it later.

HV KVM and PR KVM need different MSR source to indicate whether treclaim. or trecheckpoint. is necessary. This patch add new parameter (guest MSR) for these kvmppc_save_tm/ kvmppc_restore_tm() APIs: - For HV KVM, it is VCPU_MSR - For PR KVM, it is current host MSR or VCPU_SHADOW_SRR1 This enhancement enables these 2 APIs to be reused by PR KVM later. And the patch keeps HV KVM logic unchanged. This patch also reworks kvmppc_save_tm()/kvmppc_restore_tm() to have a clean ABI: r3 for vcpu and r4 for guest_msr. During kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm(), the R1 need to be saved or restored. Currently the R1 is saved into HSTATE_HOST_R1. In PR KVM, we are going to add a C function wrapper for kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm() where the R1 will be incremented with added stackframe and save into HSTATE_HOST_R1. There are several places in HV KVM to load HSTATE_HOST_R1 as R1, and we don't want to bring risk or confusion by TM code. This patch will use HSTATE_SCRATCH2 to save/restore R1 in kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm() to avoid future confusion, since the r1 is actually a temporary/scratch value to be saved/stored.

It is a simple patch just for moving kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm() functionalities to tm.S. There is no logic change. The reconstruct of those APIs will be done in later patches to improve readability. It is for preparation of reusing those APIs on both HV/PR PPC KVM. Some slight change during move the functions includes: - surrounds some HV KVM specific code with CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE for compilation. - use _GLOBAL() to define kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm() [paulus@ozlabs.org - rebased on top of 7b0e827c ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Factor fake-suspend handling out of kvmppc_save/restore_tm", 2018-05-30)] Signed-off-by: NSimon Guo <wei.guo.simon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

This splits out the handling of "fake suspend" mode, part of the hypervisor TM assist code for POWER9, and puts almost all of it in new kvmppc_save_tm_hv and kvmppc_restore_tm_hv functions. The new functions branch to kvmppc_save/restore_tm if the CPU does not require hypervisor TM assistance. With this, it will be more straightforward to move kvmppc_save_tm and kvmppc_restore_tm to another file and use them for transactional memory support in PR KVM. Additionally, it also makes the code a bit clearer and reduces the number of feature sections. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

Currently, PR KVM does not implement the configure_mmu operation, and so the KVM_PPC_CONFIGURE_V3_MMU ioctl always fails with an EINVAL error. This causes recent kernels to fail to boot as a PR KVM guest on POWER9, since recent kernels booted in HPT mode do the H_REGISTER_PROC_TBL hypercall, which causes userspace (QEMU) to do KVM_PPC_CONFIGURE_V3_MMU, which fails. This implements a minimal configure_mmu operation for PR KVM. It succeeds only if the MMU is being configured for HPT mode and no process table is being registered. This is enough to get recent kernels to boot as a PR KVM guest. Reviewed-by: NGreg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> Tested-by: NGreg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

Currently HV will save math regs(FP/VEC/VSX) when trap into host. But PR KVM will only save math regs when qemu task switch out of CPU, or when returning from qemu code. To emulate FP/VEC/VSX mmio load, PR KVM need to make sure that math regs were flushed firstly and then be able to update saved VCPU FPR/VEC/VSX area reasonably. This patch adds giveup_ext() field to KVM ops. Only PR KVM has non-NULL giveup_ext() ops. kvmppc_complete_mmio_load() can invoke that hook (when not NULL) to flush math regs accordingly, before updating saved register vals.

This relaxes the restriction on using PR KVM on POWER9. The existing code does work inside a guest partition running in HPT mode, because hypercalls such as H_ENTER use the old HPTE format, not the new format used by POWER9, and so no change to PR KVM's HPT manipulation code is required.

When CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n, the Linux real mode interrupt handlers call into KVM using real address. This needs to be translated to the kernel linear effective address before the MMU is switched on. kvmppc_bad_host_intr misses adding these bits, so when it is used to handle a system reset interrupt (that always gets delivered in real mode), it results in an instruction access fault immediately after the MMU is turned on.

When partition scope mappings are unmapped with kvm_unmap_radix, the pte is cleared, but the page table structure is left in place. If the next page fault requests a different page table geometry (e.g., due to THP promotion or split), kvmppc_create_pte is responsible for changing the page tables. When a page table entry is to be converted to a large pte, the page table entry is cleared, the PWC flushed, then the page table it points to freed. This will cause pte page tables to leak when a 1GB page is to replace a pud entry points to a pmd table with pte tables under it: The pmd table will be freed, but its pte tables will be missed. Fix this by replacing the simple clear and free code with one that walks down the page tables and frees children. Care must be taken to clear the root entry being unmapped then flushing the PWC before freeing any page tables, as explained in comments. This requires PWC flush to logically become a flush-all-PWC (which it already is in hardware, but the KVM API needs to be changed to avoid confusion). This code also checks that no unexpected pte entries exist in any page table being freed, and unmaps those and emits a WARN. This is an expensive operation for the pte page level, but partition scope changes are rare, so it's unconditional for now to iron out bugs. It can be put under a CONFIG option or removed after some time. Signed-off-by: NNicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

tlbies to an LPAR do not have to be serialised since POWER4/PPC970, after which the MMU_FTR_LOCKLESS_TLBIE feature was introduced to avoid tlbie locking. Since commit c17b98cf ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Remove code for PPC970 processors"), KVM no longer supports processors that do not have this feature, so the tlbie locking can be removed completely. A sanity check for the feature is put in kvmppc_mmu_hv_init.

Although Linux doesn't use PURR and SPURR ((Scaled) Processor Utilization of Resources Register), other OSes depend on them. On POWER8 they count at a rate depending on whether the VCPU is idle or running, the activity of the VCPU, and the value in the RWMR (Region-Weighting Mode Register). Hardware expects the hypervisor to update the RWMR when a core is dispatched to reflect the number of online VCPUs in the vcore. This adds code to maintain a count in the vcore struct indicating how many VCPUs are online. In kvmppc_run_core we use that count to set the RWMR register on POWER8. If the core is split because of a static or dynamic micro-threading mode, we use the value for 8 threads. The RWMR value is not relevant when the host is executing because Linux does not use the PURR or SPURR register, so we don't bother saving and restoring the host value. For the sake of old userspace which does not set the KVM_REG_PPC_ONLINE register, we set online to 1 if it was 0 at the time of a KVM_RUN ioctl. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
