We have two arrays in kvm_host_state that contain register values for the PMU. Currently we only create an asm-offsets symbol for the base of the arrays, and do the array offset in the assembly code. Creating an asm-offsets symbol for each field individually makes the code much nicer to read, particularly for the MMCRx/SIxR/SDAR fields, and might have helped us notice the recent double restore bug we had in this code.

Currently the H_CONFER hcall is implemented in kernel virtual mode, meaning that whenever a guest thread does an H_CONFER, all the threads in that virtual core have to exit the guest. This is bad for performance because it interrupts the other threads even if they are doing useful work. The H_CONFER hcall is called by a guest VCPU when it is spinning on a spinlock and it detects that the spinlock is held by a guest VCPU that is currently not running on a physical CPU. The idea is to give this VCPU's time slice to the holder VCPU so that it can make progress towards releasing the lock. To avoid having the other threads exit the guest unnecessarily, we add a real-mode implementation of H_CONFER that checks whether the other threads are doing anything. If all the other threads are idle (i.e. in H_CEDE) or trying to confer (i.e. in H_CONFER), it returns H_TOO_HARD which causes a guest exit and allows the H_CONFER to be handled in virtual mode. Otherwise it spins for a short time (up to 10 microseconds) to give other threads the chance to observe that this thread is trying to confer. The spin loop also terminates when any thread exits the guest or when all other threads are idle or trying to confer. If the timeout is reached, the H_CONFER returns H_SUCCESS. In this case the guest VCPU will recheck the spinlock word and most likely call H_CONFER again. This also improves the implementation of the H_CONFER virtual mode handler. If the VCPU is part of a virtual core (vcore) which is runnable, there will be a 'runner' VCPU which has taken responsibility for running the vcore. In this case we yield to the runner VCPU rather than the target VCPU. We also introduce a check on the target VCPU's yield count: if it differs from the yield count passed to H_CONFER, the target VCPU has run since H_CONFER was called and may have already released the lock. This check is required by PAPR. Signed-off-by: NSam Bobroff <sam.bobroff@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

There are two ways in which a guest instruction can be obtained from the guest in the guest exit code in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S. If the exit was caused by a Hypervisor Emulation interrupt (i.e. an illegal instruction), the offending instruction is in the HEIR register (Hypervisor Emulation Instruction Register). If the exit was caused by a load or store to an emulated MMIO device, we load the instruction from the guest by turning data relocation on and loading the instruction with an lwz instruction. Unfortunately, in the case where the guest has opposite endianness to the host, these two methods give results of different endianness, but both get put into vcpu->arch.last_inst. The HEIR value has been loaded using guest endianness, whereas the lwz will load the instruction using host endianness. The rest of the code that uses vcpu->arch.last_inst assumes it was loaded using host endianness. To fix this, we define a new vcpu field to store the HEIR value. Then, in kvmppc_handle_exit_hv(), we transfer the value from this new field to vcpu->arch.last_inst, doing a byte-swap if the guest and host endianness differ.

This removes the code that was added to enable HV KVM to work on PPC970 processors. The PPC970 is an old CPU that doesn't support virtualizing guest memory. Removing PPC970 support also lets us remove the code for allocating and managing contiguous real-mode areas, the code for the !kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers case, the code for pinning pages of guest memory when first accessed and keeping track of which pages have been pinned, and the code for handling H_ENTER hypercalls in virtual mode. Book3S HV KVM is now supported only on POWER7 and POWER8 processors. The KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA capability now always returns 0.

When a secondary hardware thread has finished running a KVM guest, we currently put that thread into nap mode using a nap instruction in the KVM code. This changes the code so that instead of doing a nap instruction directly, we instead cause the call to power7_nap() that put the thread into nap mode to return. The reason for doing this is to avoid having the KVM code having to know what low-power mode to put the thread into. In the case of a secondary thread used to run a KVM guest, the thread will be offline from the point of view of the host kernel, and the relevant power7_nap() call is the one in pnv_smp_cpu_disable(). In this case we don't want to clear pending IPIs in the offline loop in that function, since that might cause us to miss the wakeup for the next time the thread needs to run a guest. To tell whether or not to clear the interrupt, we use the SRR1 value returned from power7_nap(), and check if it indicates an external interrupt. We arrange that the return from power7_nap() when we have finished running a guest returns 0, so pending interrupts don't get flushed in that case. Note that it is important a secondary thread that has finished executing in the guest, or that didn't have a guest to run, should not return to power7_nap's caller while the kvm_hstate.hwthread_req flag in the PACA is non-zero, because the return from power7_nap will reenable the MMU, and the MMU might still be in guest context. In this situation we spin at low priority in real mode waiting for hwthread_req to become zero. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This provides a way for userspace controls which sPAPR hcalls get handled in the kernel. Each hcall can be individually enabled or disabled for in-kernel handling, except for H_RTAS. The exception for H_RTAS is because userspace can already control whether individual RTAS functions are handled in-kernel or not via the KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN ioctl, and because the numeric value for H_RTAS is out of the normal sequence of hcall numbers. Hcalls are enabled or disabled using the KVM_ENABLE_CAP ioctl for the KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL capability on the file descriptor for the VM. The args field of the struct kvm_enable_cap specifies the hcall number in args[0] and the enable/disable flag in args[1]; 0 means disable in-kernel handling (so that the hcall will always cause an exit to userspace) and 1 means enable. Enabling or disabling in-kernel handling of an hcall is effective across the whole VM. The ability for KVM_ENABLE_CAP to be used on a VM file descriptor on PowerPC is new, added by this commit. The KVM_CAP_ENABLE_CAP_VM capability advertises that this ability exists. When a VM is created, an initial set of hcalls are enabled for in-kernel handling. The set that is enabled is the set that have an in-kernel implementation at this point. Any new hcall implementations from this point onwards should not be added to the default set without a good reason. No distinction is made between real-mode and virtual-mode hcall implementations; the one setting controls them both.

Currently we forward MCEs to guest which have been recovered by guest. And for unhandled errors we do not deliver the MCE to guest.

Also, the existig code used to return to host for unhandled errors which was casuing guest to hang with soft lockups inside guest and makes it difficult to recover guest instance. This patch now forwards all fatal MCEs to guest causing guest to crash/panic. And, for recovered errors we just go back to normal functioning of guest instead of returning to host.

This adds workarounds for two hardware bugs in the POWER8 performance monitor unit (PMU), both related to interrupt generation. The effect of these bugs is that PMU interrupts can get lost, leading to tools such as perf reporting fewer counts and samples than they should. The first bug relates to the PMAO (perf. mon. alert occurred) bit in MMCR0; setting it should cause an interrupt, but doesn't. The other bug relates to the PMAE (perf. mon. alert enable) bit in MMCR0. Setting PMAE when a counter is negative and counter negative conditions are enabled to cause alerts should cause an alert, but doesn't. The workaround for the first bug is to create conditions where a counter will overflow, whenever we are about to restore a MMCR0 value that has PMAO set (and PMAO_SYNC clear). The workaround for the second bug is to freeze all counters using MMCR2 before reading MMCR0. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Since commit "efcac658 powerpc: Per process DSCR + some fixes (try#4)" it is no longer possible to set the DSCR on a per-CPU basis. The old behaviour was to minipulate the DSCR SPR directly but this is no longer sufficient: the value is quickly overwritten by context switching. This patch stores the per-CPU DSCR value in a kernel variable rather than directly in the SPR and it is used whenever a process has not set the DSCR itself. The sysfs interface (/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/dscr) is unchanged. Writes to the old global default (/sys/devices/system/cpu/dscr_default) now set all of the per-CPU values and reads return the last written value. The new per-CPU default is added to the paca_struct and is used everywhere outside of sysfs.c instead of the old global default.

Commit c7699822bc21 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make physical thread 0 do the MMU switching") reordered the guest entry/exit code so that most of the guest register save/restore code happened in guest MMU context. A side effect of that is that the timebase still contains the guest timebase value at the point where we compute and use vcpu->arch.dec_expires, and therefore that is now a guest timebase value rather than a host timebase value. That in turn means that the timeouts computed in kvmppc_set_timer() are wrong if the timebase offset for the guest is non-zero. The consequence of that is things such as "sleep 1" in a guest after migration may sleep for much longer than they should. This fixes the problem by converting between guest and host timebase values as necessary, by adding or subtracting the timebase offset. This also fixes an incorrect comment.

Previously SPRG3 was marked for use by both VDSO and critical interrupts (though critical interrupts were not fully implemented). In commit 8b64a9df ("powerpc/booke64: Use SPRG0/3 scratch for bolted TLB miss & crit int"), Mihai Caraman made an attempt to resolve this conflict by restoring the VDSO value early in the critical interrupt, but this has some issues: - It's incompatible with EXCEPTION_COMMON which restores r13 from the by-then-overwritten scratch (this cost me some debugging time). - It forces critical exceptions to be a special case handled differently from even machine check and debug level exceptions. - It didn't occur to me that it was possible to make this work at all (by doing a final "ld r13, PACA_EXCRIT+EX_R13(r13)") until after I made (most of) this patch. :-) It might be worth investigating using a load rather than SPRG on return from all exceptions (except TLB misses where the scratch never leaves the SPRG) -- it could save a few cycles. Until then, let's stick with SPRG for all exceptions. Since we cannot use SPRG4-7 for scratch without corrupting the state of a KVM guest, move VDSO to SPRG7 on book3e. Since neither SPRG4-7 nor critical interrupts exist on book3s, SPRG3 is still used for VDSO there.

The DABRX (DABR extension) register on POWER7 processors provides finer control over which accesses cause a data breakpoint interrupt. It contains 3 bits which indicate whether to enable accesses in user, kernel and hypervisor modes respectively to cause data breakpoint interrupts, plus one bit that enables both real mode and virtual mode accesses to cause interrupts. Currently, KVM sets DABRX to allow both kernel and user accesses to cause interrupts while in the guest. This adds support for the guest to specify other values for DABRX. PAPR defines a H_SET_XDABR hcall to allow the guest to set both DABR and DABRX with one call. This adds a real-mode implementation of H_SET_XDABR, which shares most of its code with the existing H_SET_DABR implementation. To support this, we add a per-vcpu field to store the DABRX value plus code to get and set it via the ONE_REG interface. For Linux guests to use this new hcall, userspace needs to add "hcall-xdabr" to the set of strings in the /chosen/hypertas-functions property in the device tree. If userspace does this and then migrates the guest to a host where the kernel doesn't include this patch, then userspace will need to implement H_SET_XDABR by writing the specified DABR value to the DABR using the ONE_REG interface. In that case, the old kernel will set DABRX to DABRX_USER | DABRX_KERNEL. That should still work correctly, at least for Linux guests, since Linux guests cope with getting data breakpoint interrupts in modes that weren't requested by just ignoring the interrupt, and Linux guests never set DABRX_BTI. The other thing this does is to make H_SET_DABR and H_SET_XDABR work on POWER8, which has the DAWR and DAWRX instead of DABR/X. Guests that know about POWER8 should use H_SET_MODE rather than H_SET_[X]DABR, but guests running in POWER7 compatibility mode will still use H_SET_[X]DABR. For them, this adds the logic to convert DABR/X values into DAWR/X values on POWER8. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Currently in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S we have three places where we have woken up from nap mode and we check the reason field in SRR1 to see what event woke us up. This consolidates them into a new function, kvmppc_check_wake_reason. It looks at the wake reason field in SRR1, and if it indicates that an external interrupt caused the wakeup, calls kvmppc_read_intr to check what sort of interrupt it was. This also consolidates the two places where we synthesize an external interrupt (0x500 vector) for the guest. Now, if the guest exit code finds that there was an external interrupt which has been handled (i.e. it was an IPI indicating that there is now an interrupt pending for the guest), it jumps to deliver_guest_interrupt, which is in the last part of the guest entry code, where we synthesize guest external and decrementer interrupts. That code has been streamlined a little and now clears LPCR[MER] when appropriate as well as setting it. The extra clearing of any pending IPI on a secondary, offline CPU thread before going back to nap mode has been removed. It is no longer necessary now that we have code to read and acknowledge IPIs in the guest exit path. This fixes a minor bug in the H_CEDE real-mode handling - previously, if we found that other threads were already exiting the guest when we were about to go to nap mode, we would branch to the cede wakeup path and end up looking in SRR1 for a wakeup reason. Now we branch to a point after we have checked the wakeup reason. This also fixes a minor bug in kvmppc_read_intr - previously it could return 0xff rather than 1, in the case where we find that a host IPI is pending after we have cleared the IPI. Now it returns 1.

POWER8 has 512 sets in the TLB, compared to 128 for POWER7, so we need to do more tlbiel instructions when flushing the TLB on POWER8. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This adds fields to the struct kvm_vcpu_arch to store the new guest-accessible SPRs on POWER8, adds code to the get/set_one_reg functions to allow userspace to access this state, and adds code to the guest entry and exit to context-switch these SPRs between host and guest. Note that DPDES (Directed Privileged Doorbell Exception State) is shared between threads on a core; hence we store it in struct kvmppc_vcore and have the master thread save and restore it.

On a threaded processor such as POWER7, we group VCPUs into virtual cores and arrange that the VCPUs in a virtual core run on the same physical core. Currently we don't enforce any correspondence between virtual thread numbers within a virtual core and physical thread numbers. Physical threads are allocated starting at 0 on a first-come first-served basis to runnable virtual threads (VCPUs). POWER8 implements a new "msgsndp" instruction which guest kernels can use to interrupt other threads in the same core or sub-core. Since the instruction takes the destination physical thread ID as a parameter, it becomes necessary to align the physical thread IDs with the virtual thread IDs, that is, to make sure virtual thread N within a virtual core always runs on physical thread N. This means that it's possible that thread 0, which is where we call __kvmppc_vcore_entry, may end up running some other vcpu than the one whose task called kvmppc_run_core(), or it may end up running no vcpu at all, if for example thread 0 of the virtual core is currently executing in userspace. However, we do need thread 0 to be responsible for switching the MMU -- a previous version of this patch that had other threads switching the MMU was found to be responsible for occasional memory corruption and machine check interrupts in the guest on POWER7 machines. To accommodate this, we no longer pass the vcpu pointer to __kvmppc_vcore_entry, but instead let the assembly code load it from the PACA. Since the assembly code will need to know the kvm pointer and the thread ID for threads which don't have a vcpu, we move the thread ID into the PACA and we add a kvm pointer to the virtual core structure. In the case where thread 0 has no vcpu to run, it still calls into kvmppc_hv_entry in order to do the MMU switch, and then naps until either its vcpu is ready to run in the guest, or some other thread needs to exit the guest. In the latter case, thread 0 jumps to the code that switches the MMU back to the host. This control flow means that now we switch the MMU before loading any guest vcpu state. Similarly, on guest exit we now save all the guest vcpu state before switching the MMU back to the host. This has required substantial code movement, making the diff rather large.
