      pseries: Add real mode debugging hcalls · 827200a2
      David Gibson 提交于
      PAPR systems support several hypercalls intended for use in real mode
      debugging tools.  These implement reads and writes to arbitrary guest
      physical addresses.  This is useful for real mode software because it
      allows access to IO addresses and memory outside the RMA without going
      through the somewhat involved process of setting up the hash page table
      and enabling translation.
      
      We want these so that when we add real IO devices, the SLOF firmware can
      boot from them without having to enter virtual mode.

      pseries: More complete WIMG validation in H_ENTER code · f73a2575
      David Gibson 提交于
      Currently our implementation of the H_ENTER hypercall, which inserts a
      mapping in the hash page table assumes that only ordinary memory is ever
      mapped, and only permits mapping attribute bits accordingly (WIMG==0010).
      
      However, we intend to start adding emulated IO to the pseries platform
      (and real IO with PCI passthrough on kvm) which means this simple test
      will no longer suffice.
      
      This patch extends the h_enter validation code to check if the given
      address is a RAM address.  If it is it enforces WIMG==0010, otherwise
      it assumes that it is an IO mapping and instead enforces WIMG=010x.

      Implement PAPR VPA functions for pSeries shared processor partitions · ed120055
      David Gibson 提交于
      Shared-processor partitions are those where a CPU is time-sliced between
      partitions, rather than being permanently dedicated to a single
      partition.  qemu emulated partitions, since they are just scheduled with
      the qemu user process, behave mostly like shared processor partitions.
      
      In order to better support shared processor partitions (splpar), PAPR
      defines the "VPA" (Virtual Processor Area), a shared memory communication
      channel between the hypervisor and partitions.  There are also two
      additional shared memory communication areas for specialized purposes
      associated with the VPA.
      
      A VPA is not essential for operating an splpar, though it can be necessary
      for obtaining accurate performance measurements in the presence of
      runtime partition switching.
      
      Most importantly, however, the VPA is a prerequisite for PAPR's H_CEDE,
      hypercall, which allows a partition OS to give up it's shared processor
      timeslices to other partitions when idle.
      
      This patch implements the VPA and H_CEDE hypercalls in qemu.  We don't
      implement any of the more advanced statistics which can be communicated
      through the VPA.  However, this is enough to make normal pSeries kernels
      do an effective power-save idle on an emulated pSeries, significantly
      reducing the host load of a qemu emulated pSeries running an idle guest OS.

      Implement assorted pSeries hcalls and RTAS methods · 821303f5
      David Gibson 提交于
      This patch adds several small utility hypercalls and RTAS methods to
      the pSeries platform emulation.  Specifically:
      
      * 'display-character' rtas call
      
      This just prints a character to the console, it's occasionally used
      for early debug of the OS.  The support includes a hack to make this
      RTAS call respond on the normal token value present on real hardware,
      since some early debugging tools just assume this value without
      checking the device tree.
      
      * 'get-time-of-day' rtas call
      
      This one just takes the host real time, converts to the PAPR described
      format and returns it to the guest.
      
      * 'power-off' rtas call
      
      This one shuts down the emulated system.
      
      * H_DABR hypercall
      
      On pSeries, the DABR debug register is usually a hypervisor resource
      and virtualized through this hypercall.  If the hypercall is not
      present, Linux will under some circumstances attempt to manipulate the
      DABR directly which will fail on this emulated machine.
      
      This stub implementation is enough to stop that behaviour, although it
      doesn't actually implement the requested DABR operations as yet.

      Implement hcall based RTAS for pSeries machines · 39ac8455
      David Gibson 提交于
      On pSeries machines, operating systems can instantiate "RTAS" (Run-Time
      Abstraction Services), a runtime component of the firmware which implements
      a number of low-level, infrequently used operations.  On logical partitions
      under a hypervisor, many of the RTAS functions require hypervisor
      privilege.  For simplicity, therefore, hypervisor systems typically
      implement the in-partition RTAS as just a tiny wrapper around a hypercall
      which actually implements the various RTAS functions.
      
      This patch implements such a hypercall based RTAS for our emulated pSeries
      machine.  A tiny in-partition "firmware" calls a new hypercall, which
      looks up available RTAS services in a table.

      Virtual hash page table handling on pSeries machine · f43e3525
      David Gibson 提交于
      On pSeries logical partitions, excepting the old POWER4-style full system
      partitions, the guest does not have direct access to the hardware page
      table.  Instead, the pagetable exists in hypervisor memory, and the guest
      must manipulate it with hypercalls.
      
      However, our current pSeries emulation more closely resembles the old
      style where the guest must set up and handle the pagetables itself.  This
      patch converts it to act like a modern partition.
      
      This involves two things: first, the hash translation path is modified to
      permit the has table to be stored externally to the emulated machine's
      RAM.  The pSeries machine init code configures the CPUs to use this mode.
      
      Secondly, we emulate the PAPR hypercalls for manipulating the external
      hashed page table.

      Start implementing pSeries logical partition machine · 9fdf0c29
      David Gibson 提交于
      This patch adds a "pseries" machine to qemu.  This aims to emulate a
      logical partition on an IBM pSeries machine, compliant to the
      "PowerPC Architecture Platform Requirements" (PAPR) document.
      
      This initial version is quite limited, it implements a basic machine
      and PAPR hypercall emulation.  So far only one hypercall is present -
      H_PUT_TERM_CHAR - so that a (write-only) console is available.
      
      Multiple CPUs are permitted, with SMP entry handled kexec() style.
      
      The machine so far more resembles an old POWER4 style "full system
      partition" rather than a modern LPAR, in that the guest manages the
      page tables directly, rather than via hypercalls.
      
      The machine requires qemu to be configured with --enable-fdt.  The
      machine can (so far) only be booted with -kernel - i.e. no partition
      firmware is provided.
