This adds support for then new "reset htab" ioctl which allows qemu to properly cleanup the MMU hash table when the guest is reset. With the corresponding kernel support, reset of a guest now works properly. This also paves the way for indicating a different size hash table to the kernel and for the kernel to be able to impose limits on the requested size.

More recent Power server chips (i.e. based on the 64 bit hash MMU) support more than just the traditional 4k and 16M page sizes. This can get quite complicated, because which page sizes are supported, which combinations are supported within an MMU segment and how these page sizes are encoded both in the SLB entry and the hash PTE can vary depending on the CPU model (they are not specified by the architecture). In addition the firmware or hypervisor may not permit use of certain page sizes, for various reasons. Whether various page sizes are supported on KVM, for example, depends on whether the PR or HV variant of KVM is in use, and on the page size of the memory backing the guest's RAM. This patch adds information to the CPUState and cpu defs to describe the supported page sizes and encodings. Since TCG does not yet support any extended page sizes, we just set this to NULL in the static CPU definitions, expanding this to the default 4k and 16M page sizes when we initialize the cpu state. When using KVM, however, we instead determine available page sizes using the new KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO call. For old kernels without that call, we use some defaults, with some guesswork which should do the right thing for existing HV and PR implementations. The fallback might not be correct for future versions, but that's ok, because they'll have KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO.

On target-ppc, our table of CPU types and features encodes the features as found on the hardware, regardless of whether these features are actually usable under TCG or KVM. We already have cases where the information from the cpu table must be fixed up to account for limitations in the emulation method we're using. e.g. TCG does not support the DFP and VSX instructions and KVM needs different numbering of the CPUs in order to tell it the correct thread to core mappings. This patch cleans up these hacks to handle emulation limitations by consolidating them into a pair of functions specifically for the purpose.

For convenience with kvm, x86 allows the user to specify -cpu host on the qemu command line, which means make the guest cpu the same as the host cpu. This patch implements the same option for ppc targets. For now, this just read the host PVR (Processor Version Register) and selects one of our existing CPU specs based on it. This means that the option will not work if the host cpu is not supported by TCG, even if that wouldn't matter for use under kvm. In future, we can extend this in future to override parts of the cpu spec based on information obtained from the host (via /proc/cpuinfo, the host device tree, or explicit KVM calls). That will let us handle cases where the real kvm-virtualized CPU doesn't behave exactly like the TCG-emulated CPU. With appropriate annotation of the CPU specs we'll also then be able to use host cpus under kvm even when there isn't a matching full TCG model.

Sufficiently recent PAPR specifications define properties "ibm,vmx" and "ibm,dfp" on the CPU node which advertise whether the VMX vector extensions (or the later VSX version) and/or the Decimal Floating Point operations from IBM's recent POWER CPUs are available. Currently we do not put these in the guest device tree and the guest kernel will consequently assume they are not available. This is good, because they are not supported under TCG. VMX is similar enough to Altivec that it might be trivial to support, but VSX and DFP would both require significant work to support in TCG. However, when running under kvm on a host which supports these instructions, there's no reason not to let the guest use them. This patch, therefore, checks for the relevant support on the host CPU and, if present, advertises them to the guest as well.

The pseries machine of qemu implements the TCE mechanism used as a virtual IOMMU for the PAPR defined virtual IO devices. Because the PAPR spec only defines a small DMA address space, the guest VIO drivers need to update TCE mappings very frequently - the virtual network device is particularly bad. This means many slow exits to qemu to emulate the H_PUT_TCE hypercall. Sufficiently recent kernels allow this to be mitigated by implementing H_PUT_TCE in the host kernel. To make use of this, however, qemu needs to initialize the necessary TCE tables, and map them into itself so that the VIO device implementations can retrieve the mappings when they access guest memory (which is treated as a virtual DMA operation). This patch adds the necessary calls to use the KVM TCE acceleration. If the kernel does not support acceleration, or there is some other error creating the accelerated TCE table, then it will still fall back to full userspace TCE implementation.

At present, using the hypervisor aware Book3S-HV KVM will only work with qemu on POWER7 CPUs. PPC970 CPUs also have hypervisor capability, but they lack the VRMA feature which makes assigning guest memory easier. In order to allow KVM Book3S-HV on PPC970, we need to specially allocate the first chunk of guest memory (the "Real Mode Area" or RMA), so that it is physically contiguous. Sufficiently recent host kernels allow such contiguous RMAs to be allocated, with a kvm capability advertising whether the feature is available and/or necessary on this hardware. This patch enables qemu to use this support, thus allowing kvm acceleration of pseries qemu machines on PPC970 hardware.

Alex Graf has already made qemu support KVM for the pseries machine when using the Book3S-PR KVM variant (which runs the guest in usermode, emulating supervisor operations). This code allows gets us very close to also working with KVM Book3S-HV (using the hypervisor capabilities of recent POWER CPUs). This patch moves us another step towards Book3S-HV support by correctly handling SMT (multithreaded) POWER CPUs. There are two parts to this: * Querying KVM to check SMT capability, and if present, adjusting the cpu numbers that qemu assigns to cause KVM to assign guest threads to cores in the right way (this isn't automatic, because the POWER HV support has a limitation that different threads on a single core cannot be in different guests at the same time). * Correctly informing the guest OS of the SMT thread to core mappings via the device tree.

When configured with --enable-debug, we compile without optimization. This means that the function mpc8544_copy_soc_cell() in ppce500_mpc8544ds.c is not optimized out, even though it is never called without kvm. That in turn causes a link failure, because it calls the function kvmppc_read_host_property() which is in kvm_ppc.o and therefore not included in a --disable-kvm build. This patch fixes the problem by providing a dummy stub for kvmppc_read_host_property() in kvm_ppc.h when !CONFIG_KVM.

KVM on PowerPC used to have completely broken interrupt logic. Usually, interrupts work by having a PIC that pulls a line up/down, so the CPU knows that an interrupt is active. This line stays active until some action is done to the PIC to release the line. On KVM for PPC, we just checked if there was an interrupt pending and pulled a line in the kernel module. We never released it though, hoping that kernel space would just declare an interrupt as released when injected - which is wrong. To fix this, we need to completely redesign the interrupt injection logic. Whenever an interrupt line gets triggered, we need to notify kernel space that the line is up. Whenever it gets released, we do the same. This way we can assure that the interrupt state is always known to kernel space. This fixes random stalls in KVM guests on PowerPC that were waiting for an interrupt while everyone else thought they received it already. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

On KVM for PPC we need to tell the guest which instructions to use when doing a hypercall. The clean way to do this is to go through an ioctl from userspace and passing it on to the guest using the device tree. So let's do the qemu part here: read out the hypercall and pass it on to the guest's fw_cfg so openBIOS can read it out and expose it again. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Our guest systems need to know by how much the timebase increases every second, so there usually is a "timebase-frequency" property in the cpu leaf of the device tree. This property is missing in OpenBIOS. With qemu, Linux's fallback timebase speed and qemu's internal timebase speed match up. With KVM, that is no longer true. The guest is running at the same timebase speed as the host. This leads to massive timing problems. On my test machine, a "sleep 2" takes about 14 seconds with KVM enabled. This patch exports the timebase frequency to OpenBIOS, so it can then put them into the device tree. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NMichael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
