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. PR KVM will still refuse to run if the kernel is using radix translation or if it is running bare-metal. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

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. Fix this by ensuring the top 2 address bits are set when the MMU is turned on. Signed-off-by: NNicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

The radix guest code can has fewer restrictions about what context it can run in, so move this flushing out of assembly and have it use the Linux TLB flush implementations introduced previously. This allows powerpc:tlbie trace events to be used. This changes the tlbiel sequence to only execute RIC=2 flush once on the first set flushed, then RIC=0 for the rest of the sets. The end result of the flush should be unchanged. This matches the local PID flush pattern that was introduced in a5998fcb ("powerpc/mm/radix: Optimise tlbiel flush all case").

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. Testing was done on a POWER9 system in HPT mode, with a -smp 32 guest in HPT mode. 32 instances of the powerpc fork benchmark from selftests were run with --fork, and the results measured.

However P9 does not support 16MB IOMMU pages, 2MB and 1GB pages are supported instead. We can still emulate bigger guest pages (for example 16MB) with smaller host pages (4KB/64KB/2MB).

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>

A radix guest can execute tlbie instructions to invalidate TLB entries. After a tlbie or a group of tlbies, it must then do the architected sequence eieio; tlbsync; ptesync to ensure that the TLB invalidation has been processed by all CPUs in the system before it can rely on no CPU using any translation that it just invalidated. In fact it is the ptesync which does the actual synchronization in this sequence, and hardware has a requirement that the ptesync must be executed on the same CPU thread as the tlbies which it is expected to order. Thus, if a vCPU gets moved from one physical CPU to another after it has done some tlbies but before it can get to do the ptesync, the ptesync will not have the desired effect when it is executed on the second physical CPU. To fix this, we do a ptesync in the exit path for radix guests. If there are any pending tlbies, this will wait for them to complete. If there aren't, then ptesync will just do the same as sync.

When a vcpu priority (CPPR) is set to a lower value (masking more interrupts), we stop processing interrupts already in the queue for the priorities that have now been masked. If those interrupts were previously re-routed to a different CPU, they might still be stuck until the older one that has them in its queue processes them. In the case of guest CPU unplug, that can be never. To address that without creating additional overhead for the normal interrupt processing path, this changes H_CPPR handling so that when such a priority change occurs, we scan the interrupt queue for that vCPU, and for any interrupt in there that has been re-routed, we replace it with a dummy and force a re-trigger.

Currently, the HV KVM guest entry/exit code adds the timebase offset from the vcore struct to the timebase on guest entry, and subtracts it on guest exit. Which is fine, except that it is possible for userspace to change the offset using the SET_ONE_REG interface while the vcore is running, as there is only one timebase offset per vcore but potentially multiple VCPUs in the vcore. If that were to happen, KVM would subtract a different offset on guest exit from that which it had added on guest entry, leading to the timebase being out of sync between cores in the host, which then leads to bad things happening such as hangs and spurious watchdog timeouts. To fix this, we add a new field 'tb_offset_applied' to the vcore struct which stores the offset that is currently applied to the timebase. This value is set from the vcore tb_offset field on guest entry, and is what is subtracted from the timebase on guest exit. Since it is zero when the timebase offset is not applied, we can simplify the logic in kvmhv_start_timing and kvmhv_accumulate_time. In addition, we had secondary threads reading the timebase while running concurrently with code on the primary thread which would eventually add or subtract the timebase offset from the timebase. This occurred while saving or restoring the DEC register value on the secondary threads. Although no specific incorrect behaviour has been observed, this is a race which should be fixed. To fix it, we move the DEC saving code to just before we call kvmhv_commence_exit, and the DEC restoring code to after the point where we have waited for the primary thread to switch the MMU context and add the timebase offset. That way we are sure that the timebase contains the guest timebase value in both cases. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

This changes the hypervisor page fault handler for radix guests to use the generic KVM __gfn_to_pfn_memslot() function instead of using get_user_pages_fast() and then handling the case of VM_PFNMAP vmas specially. The old code missed the case of VM_IO vmas; with this change, VM_IO vmas will now be handled correctly by code within __gfn_to_pfn_memslot. Currently, __gfn_to_pfn_memslot calls hva_to_pfn, which only uses __get_user_pages_fast for the initial lookup in the cases where either atomic or async is set. Since we are not setting either atomic or async, we do our own __get_user_pages_fast first, for now. This also adds code to check for the KVM_MEM_READONLY flag on the memslot. If it is set and this is a write access, we synthesize a data storage interrupt for the guest. In the case where the page is not normal RAM (i.e. page == NULL in kvmppc_book3s_radix_page_fault(), we read the PTE from the Linux page tables because we need the mapping attribute bits as well as the PFN.

This works around a hardware bug in "Nimbus" POWER9 DD2.2 processors, where the contents of the TEXASR can get corrupted while a thread is in fake suspend state. The workaround is for the instruction emulation code to use the value saved at the most recent guest exit in real suspend mode. We achieve this by simply not saving the TEXASR into the vcpu struct on an exit in fake suspend state. We also have to take care to set the orig_texasr field only on guest exit in real suspend state. This also means that on guest entry in fake suspend state, TEXASR will be restored to the value it had on the last exit in real suspend state, effectively counteracting any hardware-caused corruption. This works because TEXASR may not be written in suspend state. With this, the guest might see the wrong values in TEXASR if it reads it while in suspend state, but will see the correct value in non-transactional state (e.g. after a treclaim), and treclaim will work correctly. With this workaround, the code will actually run slightly faster, and will operate correctly on systems without the TEXASR bug (since TEXASR may not be written in suspend state, and is only changed by failure recording, which will have already been done before we get into fake suspend state). Therefore these changes are not made subject to a CPU feature bit. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This works around a hardware bug in "Nimbus" POWER9 DD2.2 processors, where a treclaim performed in fake suspend mode can cause subsequent reads from the XER register to return inconsistent values for the SO (summary overflow) bit. The inconsistent SO bit state can potentially be observed on any thread in the core. We have to do the treclaim because that is the only way to get the thread out of suspend state (fake or real) and into non-transactional state. The workaround for the bug is to force the core into SMT4 mode before doing the treclaim. This patch adds the code to do that, conditional on the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit.
