      KVM: PPC: Allow use of small pages to back Book3S HV guests · da9d1d7f
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This relaxes the requirement that the guest memory be provided as
      16MB huge pages, allowing it to be provided as normal memory, i.e.
      in pages of PAGE_SIZE bytes (4k or 64k).  To allow this, we index
      the kvm->arch.slot_phys[] arrays with a small page index, even if
      huge pages are being used, and use the low-order 5 bits of each
      entry to store the order of the enclosing page with respect to
      normal pages, i.e. log_2(enclosing_page_size / PAGE_SIZE).

      KVM: PPC: Only get pages when actually needed, not in prepare_memory_region() · c77162de
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This removes the code from kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region() that
      looked up the VMA for the region being added and called hva_to_page
      to get the pfns for the memory.  We have no guarantee that there will
      be anything mapped there at the time of the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
      ioctl call; userspace can do that ioctl and then map memory into the
      region later.
      
      Instead we defer looking up the pfn for each memory page until it is
      needed, which generally means when the guest does an H_ENTER hcall on
      the page.  Since we can't call get_user_pages in real mode, if we don't
      already have the pfn for the page, kvmppc_h_enter() will return
      H_TOO_HARD and we then call kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter() once we get back
      to kernel context.  That calls kvmppc_get_guest_page() to get the pfn
      for the page, and then calls back to kvmppc_h_enter() to redo the HPTE
      insertion.
      
      When the first vcpu starts executing, we need to have the RMO or VRMA
      region mapped so that the guest's real mode accesses will work.  Thus
      we now have a check in kvmppc_vcpu_run() to see if the RMO/VRMA is set
      up and if not, call kvmppc_hv_setup_rma().  It checks if the memslot
      starting at guest physical 0 now has RMO memory mapped there; if so it
      sets it up for the guest, otherwise on POWER7 it sets up the VRMA.
      The function that does that, kvmppc_map_vrma, is now a bit simpler,
      as it calls kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter instead of creating the HPTE itself.
      
      Since we are now potentially updating entries in the slot_phys[]
      arrays from multiple vcpu threads, we now have a spinlock protecting
      those updates to ensure that we don't lose track of any references
      to pages.

      KVM: PPC: Make the H_ENTER hcall more reliable · 075295dd
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      At present, our implementation of H_ENTER only makes one try at locking
      each slot that it looks at, and doesn't even retry the ldarx/stdcx.
      atomic update sequence that it uses to attempt to lock the slot.  Thus
      it can return the H_PTEG_FULL error unnecessarily, particularly when
      the H_EXACT flag is set, meaning that the caller wants a specific PTEG
      slot.
      
      This improves the situation by making a second pass when no free HPTE
      slot is found, where we spin until we succeed in locking each slot in
      turn and then check whether it is full while we hold the lock.  If the
      second pass fails, then we return H_PTEG_FULL.
      
      This also moves lock_hpte to a header file (since later commits in this
      series will need to use it from other source files) and renames it to
      try_lock_hpte, which is a somewhat less misleading name.

      KVM: PPC: Keep page physical addresses in per-slot arrays · b2b2f165
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This allocates an array for each memory slot that is added to store
      the physical addresses of the pages in the slot.  This array is
      vmalloc'd and accessed in kvmppc_h_enter using real_vmalloc_addr().
      This allows us to remove the ram_pginfo field from the kvm_arch
      struct, and removes the 64GB guest RAM limit that we had.
      
      We use the low-order bits of the array entries to store a flag
      indicating that we have done get_page on the corresponding page,
      and therefore need to call put_page when we are finished with the
      page.  Currently this is set for all pages except those in our
      special RMO regions.

      KVM: PPC: Keep a record of HV guest view of hashed page table entries · 8936dda4
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds an array that parallels the guest hashed page table (HPT),
      that is, it has one entry per HPTE, used to store the guest's view
      of the second doubleword of the corresponding HPTE.  The first
      doubleword in the HPTE is the same as the guest's idea of it, so we
      don't need to store a copy, but the second doubleword in the HPTE has
      the real page number rather than the guest's logical page number.
      This allows us to remove the back_translate() and reverse_xlate()
      functions.
      
      This "reverse mapping" array is vmalloc'd, meaning that to access it
      in real mode we have to walk the kernel's page tables explicitly.
      That is done by the new real_vmalloc_addr() function.  (In fact this
      returns an address in the linear mapping, so the result is usable
      both in real mode and in virtual mode.)
      
      There are also some minor cleanups here: moving the definitions of
      HPT_ORDER etc. to a header file and defining HPT_NPTE for HPT_NPTEG << 3.

      KVM: PPC: book3s_hv: Add support for PPC970-family processors · 9e368f29
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds support for running KVM guests in supervisor mode on those
      PPC970 processors that have a usable hypervisor mode.  Unfortunately,
      Apple G5 machines have supervisor mode disabled (MSR[HV] is forced to
      1), but the YDL PowerStation does have a usable hypervisor mode.
      
      There are several differences between the PPC970 and POWER7 in how
      guests are managed.  These differences are accommodated using the
      CPU_FTR_ARCH_201 (PPC970) and CPU_FTR_ARCH_206 (POWER7) CPU feature
      bits.  Notably, on PPC970:
      
      * The LPCR, LPID or RMOR registers don't exist, and the functions of
        those registers are provided by bits in HID4 and one bit in HID0.
      
      * External interrupts can be directed to the hypervisor, but unlike
        POWER7 they are masked by MSR[EE] in non-hypervisor modes and use
        SRR0/1 not HSRR0/1.
      
      * There is no virtual RMA (VRMA) mode; the guest must use an RMO
        (real mode offset) area.
      
      * The TLB entries are not tagged with the LPID, so it is necessary to
        flush the whole TLB on partition switch.  Furthermore, when switching
        partitions we have to ensure that no other CPU is executing the tlbie
        or tlbsync instructions in either the old or the new partition,
        otherwise undefined behaviour can occur.
      
      * The PMU has 8 counters (PMC registers) rather than 6.
      
      * The DSCR, PURR, SPURR, AMR, AMOR, UAMOR registers don't exist.
      
      * The SLB has 64 entries rather than 32.
      
      * There is no mediated external interrupt facility, so if we switch to
        a guest that has a virtual external interrupt pending but the guest
        has MSR[EE] = 0, we have to arrange to have an interrupt pending for
        it so that we can get control back once it re-enables interrupts.  We
        do that by sending ourselves an IPI with smp_send_reschedule after
        hard-disabling interrupts.

      KVM: PPC: Handle some PAPR hcalls in the kernel · a8606e20
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds the infrastructure for handling PAPR hcalls in the kernel,
      either early in the guest exit path while we are still in real mode,
      or later once the MMU has been turned back on and we are in the full
      kernel context.  The advantage of handling hcalls in real mode if
      possible is that we avoid two partition switches -- and this will
      become more important when we support SMT4 guests, since a partition
      switch means we have to pull all of the threads in the core out of
      the guest.  The disadvantage is that we can only access the kernel
      linear mapping, not anything vmalloced or ioremapped, since the MMU
      is off.
      
      This also adds code to handle the following hcalls in real mode:
      
      H_ENTER       Add an HPTE to the hashed page table
      H_REMOVE      Remove an HPTE from the hashed page table
      H_READ        Read HPTEs from the hashed page table
      H_PROTECT     Change the protection bits in an HPTE
      H_BULK_REMOVE Remove up to 4 HPTEs from the hashed page table
      H_SET_DABR    Set the data address breakpoint register
      
      Plus code to handle the following hcalls in the kernel:
      
      H_CEDE        Idle the vcpu until an interrupt or H_PROD hcall arrives
      H_PROD        Wake up a ceded vcpu
      H_REGISTER_VPA Register a virtual processor area (VPA)
      
      The code that runs in real mode has to be in the base kernel, not in
      the module, if KVM is compiled as a module.  The real-mode code can
      only access the kernel linear mapping, not vmalloc or ioremap space.
