Today, we disable preemption while inside guest context, because we need to expose to the world that we are not in a preemptible context. However, during that time we already have interrupts disabled, which would indicate that we are in a non-preemptible context. The reason the checks for irqs_disabled() fail for us though is that we manually control hard IRQs and ignore all the lazy EE framework. Let's stop doing that. Instead, let's always use lazy EE to indicate when we want to disable IRQs, but do a special final switch that gets us into EE disabled, but soft enabled state. That way when we get back out of guest state, we are immediately ready to process interrupts. This simplifies the code drastically and reduces the time that we appear as preempt disabled.

Commit b38c77d8 moved the MTMSR_EERI macro from the KVM code to generic ppc_asm.h code. However, while adding it in the headers for the ppc32 case, it missed out to remove the former definition in the KVM code. This patch fixes compilation on server type PPC32 targets with CONFIG_KVM enabled. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This simplifies the way that the book3s_pr makes the transition to real mode when entering the guest. We now call kvmppc_entry_trampoline (renamed from kvmppc_rmcall) in the base kernel using a normal function call instead of doing an indirect call through a pointer in the vcpu. If kvm is a module, the module loader takes care of generating a trampoline as it does for other calls to functions outside the module. kvmppc_entry_trampoline then disables interrupts and jumps to kvmppc_handler_trampoline_enter in real mode using an rfi[d]. That then uses the link register as the address to return to (potentially in module space) when the guest exits. This also simplifies the way that we call the Linux interrupt handler when we exit the guest due to an external, decrementer or performance monitor interrupt. Instead of turning on the MMU, then deciding that we need to call the Linux handler and turning the MMU back off again, we now go straight to the handler at the point where we would turn the MMU on. The handler will then return to the virtual-mode code (potentially in the module). Along the way, this moves the setting and clearing of the HID5 DCBZ32 bit into real-mode interrupts-off code, and also makes sure that we clear the MSR[RI] bit before loading values into SRR0/1. The net result is that we no longer need any code addresses to be stored in vcpu->arch. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This makes arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_rmhandlers.S and arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S be assembled as separate compilation units rather than having them #included in arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S. We no longer have any conditional branches between the exception prologs in exceptions-64s.S and the KVM handlers, so there is no need to keep their contents close together in the vmlinux image. In their current location, they are using up part of the limited space between the first-level interrupt handlers and the firmware NMI data area at offset 0x7000, and with some kernel configurations this area will overflow (e.g. allyesconfig), leading to an "attempt to .org backwards" error when compiling exceptions-64s.S. Moving them out requires that we add some #includes that the book3s_{,hv_}rmhandlers.S code was previously getting implicitly via exceptions-64s.S.

There are several fields in struct kvmppc_book3s_shadow_vcpu that temporarily store bits of host state while a guest is running, rather than anything relating to the particular guest or vcpu. This splits them out into a new kvmppc_host_state structure and modifies the definitions in asm-offsets.c to suit. On 32-bit, we have a kvmppc_host_state structure inside the kvmppc_book3s_shadow_vcpu since the assembly code needs to be able to get to them both with one pointer. On 64-bit they are separate fields in the PACA. This means that on 64-bit we don't need to copy the kvmppc_host_state in and out on vcpu load/unload, and in future will mean that the book3s_hv code doesn't need a shadow_vcpu struct in the PACA at all. That does mean that we have to be careful not to rely on any values persisting in the hstate field of the paca across any point where we could block or get preempted.

Instead of branching out-of-line with the DO_KVM macro to check if we are in a KVM guest at the time of an interrupt, this moves the KVM check inline in the first-level interrupt handlers. This speeds up the non-KVM case and makes sure that none of the interrupt handlers are missing the check. Because the first-level interrupt handlers are now larger, some things had to be move out of line in exceptions-64s.S. This all necessitated some minor changes to the interrupt entry code in KVM. This also streamlines the book3s_32 KVM test. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Up until now, Book3S KVM had variables stored in the kernel that a kernel module or the kvm code in the kernel could read from to figure out where some real mode helper functions are located. This is all unnecessary. The high bits of the EA get ignore in real mode, so we can just use the pointer as is. Also, it's a lot easier on relocations when we use the normal way of resolving the address to a function, instead of jumping through hoops. This patch fixes compilation with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

This uses feature sections to arrange that we always use HSPRG1 as the scratch register in the interrupt entry code rather than SPRG2 when we're running in hypervisor mode on POWER7. This will ensure that we don't trash the guest's SPRG2 when we are running KVM guests. To simplify the code, we define GET_SCRATCH0() and SET_SCRATCH0() macros like the GET_PACA/SET_PACA macros.

When running in Hypervisor mode (arch 2.06 or later), we store the PACA in HSPRG0 instead of SPRG1. The architecture specifies that SPRGs may be lost during a "nap" power management operation (though they aren't currently on POWER7) and this enables use of SPRG1 by KVM guests.

On Book3S KVM we directly expose some asm pointers to C code as variables. These need to be relocated and thus break on relocatable kernels. To make sure we can at least build, let's mark them as long instead of u32 where 64bit relocations don't work. This fixes the following build error: WARNING: 2 bad relocations^M > c000000000008590 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008460^M > c000000000008594 R_PPC64_ADDR32 .text+0x4000000000008598^M Please keep in mind that actually using KVM on a relocated kernel might still break.

Book3S_32 requires MSR_DR to be disabled during load_up_xxx while on Book3S_64 it's supposed to be enabled. I misread the code and disabled it in both cases, potentially breaking the PS3 which has a really small RMA. This patch makes KVM work on the PS3 again.

Some code we had so far required defines and had code that was completely Book3S_64 specific. Since we now opened book3s.c to Book3S_32 too, we need to take care of these pieces. So let's add some minor code where it makes sense to not go the Book3S_64 code paths and add compat defines on others.

We don't need as complex code. I had some thinkos while writing it, figuring I needed to support PPC32 paths on PPC64 which would have required DR=0, but everything just runs fine with DR=1. So let's make the functions simple C call wrappers that reserve some space on the stack for the respective functions to clobber. Fixes out-of-RMA-access (and thus guest FPU loading) on the PS3.

Linux contains quite some bits of code to load FPU, Altivec and VSX lazily for a task. It calls those bits in real mode, coming from an interrupt handler. For KVM we better reuse those, so let's wrap a bit of trampoline magic around them and then we can call them from normal module code.

Currently we're racy when doing the transition from IR=1 to IR=0, from the module memory entry code to the real mode SLB switching code. To work around that I took a look at the RTAS entry code which is faced with a similar problem and did the same thing: A small helper in linear mapped memory that does mtmsr with IR=0 and then RFIs info the actual handler. Thanks to that trick we can safely take page faults in the entry code and only need to be really wary of what to do as of the SLB switching part.

To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early exit code, where we are still in a very transitional phase between guest and host state. Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries. To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction. That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".

We're being horribly racy right now. All the entry and exit code hijacks random fields from the PACA that could easily be used by different code in case we get interrupted, for example by a #MC or even page fault. After discussing this with Ben, we figured it's best to reserve some more space in the PACA and just shove off some vcpu state to there. That way we can drastically improve the readability of the code, make it less racy and less complex. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Getting from host state to the guest is only half the story. We also need to return to our host context and handle whatever happened to get us out of the guest. On PowerPC every guest exit is an interrupt. So all we need to do is trap the host's interrupt handlers and get into our #VMEXIT code to handle it. PowerPCs also have a register that can add an offset to the interrupt handlers' adresses which is what the booke KVM code uses. Unfortunately that is a hypervisor ressource and we also want to be able to run KVM when we're running in an LPAR. So we have to hook into the Linux interrupt handlers.
