    KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make HPT reading code notice R/C bit changes · a1b4a0f6
    Paul Mackerras 提交于
    At present, the code that determines whether a HPT entry has changed,
    and thus needs to be sent to userspace when it is copying the HPT,
    doesn't consider a hardware update to the reference and change bits
    (R and C) in the HPT entries to constitute a change that needs to
    be sent to userspace.  This adds code to check for changes in R and C
    when we are scanning the HPT to find changed entries, and adds code
    to set the changed flag for the HPTE when we update the R and C bits
    in the guest view of the HPTE.
    
    Since we now need to set the HPTE changed flag in book3s_64_mmu_hv.c
    as well as book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c, we move the note_hpte_modification()
    function into kvm_book3s_64.h.
    
    Current Linux guest kernels don't use the hardware updates of R and C
    in the HPT, so this change won't affect them.  Linux (or other) kernels
    might in future want to use the R and C bits and have them correctly
    transferred across when a guest is migrated, so it is better to correct
    this deficiency.
