This commit defines the API for userspace and prepare the common
functionalities to support per VM/VCPU binary stats data readings.
The KVM stats now is only accessible by debugfs, which has some
shortcomings this change series are supposed to fix:
1. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM could be disabled
when kernel Lockdown mode is enabled, which is a potential
rick for production.
2. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM is organized as "one
stats per file", it is good for debugging, but not efficient
for production.
3. The stats read/clear in current debugfs solution in KVM are
protected by the global kvm_lock.
Besides that, there are some other benefits with this change:
1. All KVM VM/VCPU stats can be read out in a bulk by one copy
to userspace.
2. A schema is used to describe KVM statistics. From userspace's
perspective, the KVM statistics are self-describing.
3. With the fd-based solution, a separate telemetry would be able
to read KVM stats in a less privileged environment.
4. After the initial setup by reading in stats descriptors, a
telemetry only needs to read the stats data itself, no more
parsing or setup is needed.

Almost all logic is moved to C, by introducing a new in_guest mode for
the P9 path that branches very early in the KVM interrupt handler to P9
exit code.
The main P9 entry and exit assembly is now only about 160 lines of low
level stack setup and register save/restore, plus a bad-interrupt
handler.
There are two motivations for this, the first is just make the code more
maintainable being in C. The second is to reduce the amount of code
running in a special KVM mode, "realmode". In quotes because with radix
it is no longer necessarily real-mode in the MMU, but it still has to be
treated specially because it may be in real-mode, and has various
important registers like PID, DEC, TB, etc set to guest. This is hostile
to the rest of Linux and can't use arbitrary kernel functionality or be
instrumented well.
This initial patch is a reasonably faithful conversion of the asm code,
but it does lack any loop to return quickly back into the guest without
switching out of realmode in the case of unimportant or easily handled
interrupts. As explained in previous changes, handling HV interrupts
very quickly in this low level realmode is not so important for P9
performance, and are important to avoid for security, observability,
debugability reasons.

Rather than bifurcate the call depending on whether or not HV is
possible, and have the HV entry test for PR, just make a single
common point which does the demultiplexing. This makes it simpler

A pseries guest can be run as secure guest on Ultravisor-enabled
POWER platforms. On such platforms, this driver will be used to manage
the movement of guest pages between the normal memory managed by
hypervisor (HV) and secure memory managed by Ultravisor (UV).
HV is informed about the guest's transition to secure mode via hcalls:
H_SVM_INIT_START: Initiate securing a VM
H_SVM_INIT_DONE: Conclude securing a VM
As part of H_SVM_INIT_START, register all existing memslots with
the UV. H_SVM_INIT_DONE call by UV informs HV that transition of
the guest to secure mode is complete.
These two states (transition to secure mode STARTED and transition
to secure mode COMPLETED) are recorded in kvm->arch.secure_guest.
Setting these states will cause the assembly code that enters the
guest to call the UV_RETURN ucall instead of trying to enter the
guest directly.
Migration of pages betwen normal and secure memory of secure
guest is implemented in H_SVM_PAGE_IN and H_SVM_PAGE_OUT hcalls.
H_SVM_PAGE_IN: Move the content of a normal page to secure page
H_SVM_PAGE_OUT: Move the content of a secure page to normal page
Private ZONE_DEVICE memory equal to the amount of secure memory
available in the platform for running secure guests is created.
Whenever a page belonging to the guest becomes secure, a page from
this private device memory is used to represent and track that secure
page on the HV side. The movement of pages between normal and secure
memory is done via migrate_vma_pages() using UV_PAGE_IN and
UV_PAGE_OUT ucalls.
In order to prevent the device private pages (that correspond to pages
of secure guest) from participating in KSM merging, H_SVM_PAGE_IN
calls ksm_madvise() under read version of mmap_sem. However
ksm_madvise() needs to be under write lock. Hence we call
kvmppc_svm_page_in with mmap_sem held for writing, and it then
downgrades to a read lock after calling ksm_madvise.

This is the basic framework for the new KVM device supporting the XIVE
native exploitation mode. The user interface exposes a new KVM device
to be created by QEMU, only available when running on a L0 hypervisor.
Support for nested guests is not available yet.
The XIVE device reuses the device structure of the XICS-on-XIVE device
as they have a lot in common. That could possibly change in the future
if the need arise.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Notable changes:
- A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of
fairly complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.
- Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for
each process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27%
speedup for our context switch benchmark on Power9.
- Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print
more debug information when they occur, and try to continue running
by flushing the SLB and reloading, rather than treating them as
fatal.
- Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).
- Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on
64-bit Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system
memory, otherwise the percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.
- Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task
canary.
- Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.
- Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are
presented to us as a single SMT8 core.
- A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE
flags.
- Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface,
allowing guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).
- Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we
need to use a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().
And many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.

Back when I added -Werror in commit ba55bd74360e ("powerpc: Add
configurable -Werror for arch/powerpc") I did it by adding it to most
of the arch Makefiles.
At the time we excluded math-emu, because apparently it didn't build
cleanly. But that seems to have been fixed somewhere in the interim.
So move the -Werror addition to the top-level of the arch, this saves
us from repeating it in every Makefile and means we won't forget to
add it to any new sub-dirs.

This starts the process of adding the code to support nested HV-style
virtualization. It defines a new H_SET_PARTITION_TABLE hypercall which
a nested hypervisor can use to set the base address and size of a
partition table in its memory (analogous to the PTCR register).
On the host (level 0 hypervisor) side, the H_SET_PARTITION_TABLE
hypercall from the guest is handled by code that saves the virtual
PTCR value for the guest.
This also adds code for creating and destroying nested guests and for
reading the partition table entry for a nested guest from L1 memory.
Each nested guest has its own shadow LPID value, different in general
from the LPID value used by the nested hypervisor to refer to it. The
shadow LPID value is allocated at nested guest creation time.
Nested hypervisor functionality is only available for a radix guest,
which therefore means a radix host on a POWER9 (or later) processor.

It is a simple patch just for moving kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm()
functionalities to tm.S. There is no logic change. The reconstruct of
those APIs will be done in later patches to improve readability.
It is for preparation of reusing those APIs on both HV/PR PPC KVM.
Some slight change during move the functions includes:
- surrounds some HV KVM specific code with CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE
for compilation.
- use _GLOBAL() to define kvmppc_save_tm/kvmppc_restore_tm()

POWER9 has hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread
reconfiguration (changes to hardware SMT mode). Specifically, the core
does not have enough storage to store a complete checkpoint of all the
architected state for all four threads. The DD2.2 version of POWER9
includes hardware modifications designed to allow hypervisor software
to implement workarounds for these problems. This patch implements
those workarounds in KVM code so that KVM guests see a full, working
transactional memory implementation.
The problems center around the use of TM suspended state, where the
CPU has a checkpointed state but execution is not transactional. The
workaround is to implement a "fake suspend" state, which looks to the
guest like suspended state but the CPU does not store a checkpoint.
In this state, any instruction that would cause a transition to
transactional state (rfid, rfebb, mtmsrd, tresume) or would use the
checkpointed state (treclaim) causes a "soft patch" interrupt (vector
0x1500) to the hypervisor so that it can be emulated. The trechkpt
instruction also causes a soft patch interrupt.
On POWER9 DD2.2, we avoid returning to the guest in any state which
would require a checkpoint to be present. The trechkpt in the guest
entry path which would normally create that checkpoint is replaced by
either a transition to fake suspend state, if the guest is in suspend
state, or a rollback to the pre-transactional state if the guest is in
transactional state. Fake suspend state is indicated by a flag in the
PACA plus a new bit in the PSSCR. The new PSSCR bit is write-only and
reads back as 0.
On exit from the guest, if the guest is in fake suspend state, we still
do the treclaim instruction as we would in real suspend state, in order
to get into non-transactional state, but we do not save the resulting
register state since there was no checkpoint.
Emulation of the instructions that cause a softpatch interrupt is
handled in two paths. If the guest is in real suspend mode, we call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() to handle the cases where the guest is
transitioning to transactional state. This is called before we do the
treclaim in the guest exit path; because we haven't done treclaim, we
can get back to the guest with the transaction still active. If the
instruction is a case that kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() doesn't
handle, or if the guest is in fake suspend state, then we proceed to
do the complete guest exit path and subsequently call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation() in host context with the MMU on. This handles
all the cases including the cases that generate program interrupts
(illegal instruction or TM Bad Thing) and facility unavailable
interrupts.
The emulation is reasonably straightforward and is mostly concerned
with checking for exception conditions and updating the state of
registers such as MSR and CR0. The treclaim emulation takes care to
ensure that the TEXASR register gets updated as if it were the guest
treclaim instruction that had done failure recording, not the treclaim
done in hypervisor state in the guest exit path.
With this, the KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM capability returns true (1) even if
transactional memory is not available to host userspace.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Book 3S kernel configurations in order to simplify the code and

pseries and powernv don't implement the necessary IOMMU callbacks,
leading to build failures like the following (for a pasemi config):

To fix this, we make the inclusion of the SPAPR TCE support, and the
code that uses it in book3s_vio.c and book3s_vio_hv.c, depend on
the inclusion of support for the pseries and/or powernv platforms.
This means that when running a 'pseries' guest on those platforms,
the guest won't have in-kernel acceleration of the PAPR TCE hypercalls,
but at least now they compile.

hmi.c functions are unused unless sibling_subcore_state is nonzero, and
that in turn happens only if KVM is in use. So move the code to

included in struct paca_struct only if KVM is supported by the kernel.

As discussed recently on the kvm mailing list, David Gibson's
intention in commit 178a78750212 ("vfio: Enable VFIO device for
powerpc", 2016-02-01) was to have the KVM VFIO device built in
on all powerpc platforms. This patch adds the "select KVM_VFIO"
statement that makes this happen.
Currently, arch/powerpc/kvm/Makefile doesn't include vfio.o for
the 64-bit kvm module, because the list of objects doesn't use
the $(common-objs-y) list. The reason it doesn't is because we
don't necessarily want coalesced_mmio.o or emulate.o (for example
if HV KVM is the only target), and common-objs-y includes both.
Since this is confusing, this patch adjusts the definitions so that
we now use $(common-objs-y) in the list for the 64-bit kvm.ko
module, emulate.o is removed from common-objs-y and added in the
places that need it, and the inclusion of coalesced_mmio.o now
depends on CONFIG_KVM_MMIO.

There are very few files that need add an -I$(obj) gcc for the preprocessor
or the assembler. For C files, we add always these for both the objtree and
srctree, but for the other ones we require the Makefile to add them, and
Kbuild then adds it for both trees.
As a preparation for changing the meaning of the -I$(obj) directive to
only refer to the srctree, this changes the two instances in arch/x86 to use

ec53500f "kvm: Add VFIO device" added a special KVM pseudo-device which is
used to handle any necessary interactions between KVM and VFIO.
Currently that device is built on x86 and ARM, but not powerpc, although
powerpc does support both KVM and VFIO. This makes things awkward in
userspace
Currently qemu prints an alarming error message if you attempt to use VFIO
and it can't initialize the KVM VFIO device. We don't want to remove the
warning, because lack of the KVM VFIO device could mean coherency problems
on x86. On powerpc, however, the error is harmless but looks disturbing,
and a test based on host architecture in qemu would be ugly, and break if
we do need the KVM VFIO device for something important in future.
There's nothing preventing the KVM VFIO device from being built for
powerpc, so this patch turns it on. It won't actually do anything, since
we don't define any of the arch_*() hooks, but it will make qemu happy and
we can extend it in future if we need to.

Pull second round of KVM changes from Paolo Bonzini:
"Here are the PPC and ARM changes for KVM, which I separated because
they had small conflicts (respectively within KVM documentation, and
with 3.16-rc changes). Since they were all within the subsystem, I
took care of them.
Stephen Rothwell reported some snags in PPC builds, but they are all
fixed now; the latest linux-next report was clean.
New features for ARM include:
- KVM VGIC v2 emulation on GICv3 hardware
- Big-Endian support for arm/arm64 (guest and host)
- Debug Architecture support for arm64 (arm32 is on Christoffer's todo list)
And for PPC:
- Book3S: Good number of LE host fixes, enable HV on LE
- Book3S HV: Add in-guest debug support
This release drops support for KVM on the PPC440. As a result, the
PPC merge removes more lines than it adds. :)
I also included an x86 change, since Davidlohr tied it to an
independent bug report and the reporter quickly provided a Tested-by;
there was no reason to wait for -rc2"

Powerpc architecture uses a hash based page table mechanism for mapping virtual
addresses to physical address. The architecture require this hash page table to
be physically contiguous. With KVM on Powerpc currently we use early reservation
mechanism for allocating guest hash page table. This implies that we need to
reserve a big memory region to ensure we can create large number of guest
simultaneously with KVM on Power. Another disadvantage is that the reserved memory
is not available to rest of the subsystems and and that implies we limit the total
available memory in the host.
This patch series switch the guest hash page table allocation to use
contiguous memory allocator.

This adds in-kernel emulation of the XICS (eXternal Interrupt
Controller Specification) interrupt controller specified by PAPR, for
both HV and PR KVM guests.
The XICS emulation supports up to 1048560 interrupt sources.
Interrupt source numbers below 16 are reserved; 0 is used to mean no
interrupt and 2 is used for IPIs. Internally these are represented in
blocks of 1024, called ICS (interrupt controller source) entities, but
that is not visible to userspace.
Each vcpu gets one ICP (interrupt controller presentation) entity,
used to store the per-vcpu state such as vcpu priority, pending
interrupt state, IPI request, etc.
This does not include any API or any way to connect vcpus to their
ICP state; that will be added in later patches.

panicking
Currently, if a machine check interrupt happens while we are in the
guest, we exit the guest and call the host's machine check handler,
which tends to cause the host to panic. Some machine checks can be
triggered by the guest; for example, if the guest creates two entries
in the SLB that map the same effective address, and then accesses that
effective address, the CPU will take a machine check interrupt.
To handle this better, when a machine check happens inside the guest,
we call a new function, kvmppc_realmode_machine_check(), while still in
real mode before exiting the guest. On POWER7, it handles the cases
that the guest can trigger, either by flushing and reloading the SLB,
or by flushing the TLB, and then it delivers the machine check interrupt
directly to the guest without going back to the host. On POWER7, the
OPAL firmware patches the machine check interrupt vector so that it
gets control first, and it leaves behind its analysis of the situation
in a structure pointed to by the opal_mc_evt field of the paca. The
kvmppc_realmode_machine_check() function looks at this, and if OPAL
reports that there was no error, or that it has handled the error, we
also go straight back to the guest with a machine check. We have to
deliver a machine check to the guest since the machine check interrupt
might have trashed valid values in SRR0/1.
If the machine check is one we can't handle in real mode, and one that
OPAL hasn't already handled, or on PPC970, we exit the guest and call
the host's machine check handler. We do this by jumping to the
machine_check_fwnmi label, rather than absolute address 0x200, because
we don't want to re-execute OPAL's handler on POWER7. On PPC970, the
two are equivalent because address 0x200 just contains a branch.
Then, if the host machine check handler decides that the system can
continue executing, kvmppc_handle_exit() delivers a machine check
interrupt to the guest -- once again to let the guest know that SRR0/1
have been modified.

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.

v1 -> v2:

This adds infrastructure which will be needed to allow book3s_hv KVM to
run on older POWER processors, including PPC970, which don't support
the Virtual Real Mode Area (VRMA) facility, but only the Real Mode
Offset (RMO) facility. These processors require a physically
contiguous, aligned area of memory for each guest. When the guest does
an access in real mode (MMU off), the address is compared against a
limit value, and if it is lower, the address is ORed with an offset
value (from the Real Mode Offset Register (RMOR)) and the result becomes
the real address for the access. The size of the RMA has to be one of
a set of supported values, which usually includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB
and some larger powers of 2.
Since we are unlikely to be able to allocate 64MB or more of physically
contiguous memory after the kernel has been running for a while, we
allocate a pool of RMAs at boot time using the bootmem allocator. The
size and number of the RMAs can be set using the kvm_rma_size=xx and
kvm_rma_count=xx kernel command line options.
KVM exports a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA, to signal the availability
of the pool of preallocated RMAs. The capability value is 1 if the
processor can use an RMA but doesn't require one (because it supports
the VRMA facility), or 2 if the processor requires an RMA for each guest.
This adds a new ioctl, KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA, which allocates an RMA from the
pool and returns a file descriptor which can be used to map the RMA. It
also returns the size of the RMA in the argument structure.
Having an RMA means we will get multiple KMV_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
ioctl calls from userspace. To cope with this, we now preallocate the
kvm->arch.ram_pginfo array when the VM is created with a size sufficient
for up to 64GB of guest memory. Subsequently we will get rid of this
array and use memory associated with each memslot instead.
This moves most of the code that translates the user addresses into
host pfns (page frame numbers) out of kvmppc_prepare_vrma up one level
to kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region. Also, instead of having to look
up the VMA for each page in order to check the page size, we now check
that the pages we get are compound pages of 16MB. However, if we are
adding memory that is mapped to an RMA, we don't bother with calling
get_user_pages_fast and instead just offset from the base pfn for the
RMA.
Typically the RMA gets added after vcpus are created, which makes it
inconvenient to have the LPCR (logical partition control register) value
in the vcpu->arch struct, since the LPCR controls whether the processor
uses RMA or VRMA for the guest. This moves the LPCR value into the
kvm->arch struct and arranges for the MER (mediated external request)
bit, which is the only bit that varies between vcpus, to be set in
assembly code when going into the guest if there is a pending external
interrupt request.

This improves I/O performance for guests using the PAPR
paravirtualization interface by making the H_PUT_TCE hcall faster, by
implementing it in real mode. H_PUT_TCE is used for updating virtual
IOMMU tables, and is used both for virtual I/O and for real I/O in the
PAPR interface.
Since this moves the IOMMU tables into the kernel, we define a new
KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE ioctl to allow qemu to create the tables. The
ioctl returns a file descriptor which can be used to mmap the newly
created table. The qemu driver models use them in the same way as
userspace managed tables, but they can be updated directly by the
guest with a real-mode H_PUT_TCE implementation, reducing the number
of host/guest context switches during guest IO.
There are certain circumstances where it is useful for userland qemu
to write to the TCE table even if the kernel H_PUT_TCE path is used
most of the time. Specifically, allowing this will avoid awkwardness
when we need to reset the table. More importantly, we will in the
future need to write the table in order to restore its state after a
checkpoint resume or migration.

This adds the infrastructure for handling PAPR hcalls in the kernel,
either early in the guest exit path while we are still in real mode,
or later once the MMU has been turned back on and we are in the full
kernel context. The advantage of handling hcalls in real mode if
possible is that we avoid two partition switches -- and this will
become more important when we support SMT4 guests, since a partition
switch means we have to pull all of the threads in the core out of
the guest. The disadvantage is that we can only access the kernel
linear mapping, not anything vmalloced or ioremapped, since the MMU
is off.
This also adds code to handle the following hcalls in real mode:
H_ENTER Add an HPTE to the hashed page table
H_REMOVE Remove an HPTE from the hashed page table
H_READ Read HPTEs from the hashed page table
H_PROTECT Change the protection bits in an HPTE
H_BULK_REMOVE Remove up to 4 HPTEs from the hashed page table
H_SET_DABR Set the data address breakpoint register
Plus code to handle the following hcalls in the kernel:
H_CEDE Idle the vcpu until an interrupt or H_PROD hcall arrives
H_PROD Wake up a ceded vcpu
H_REGISTER_VPA Register a virtual processor area (VPA)
The code that runs in real mode has to be in the base kernel, not in
the module, if KVM is compiled as a module. The real-mode code can
only access the kernel linear mapping, not vmalloc or ioremap space.

This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors,
specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means
that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means
that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged
registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent
performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor
architecture other than the one that the hardware implements.
This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the
PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the
interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing
Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run
under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR
hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code
to include/linux/kvm.h.
Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support
(i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be
made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only
do one or the other.
This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present.
Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious
restriction.
With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight
to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment
interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program
interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from
the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the
exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry
to those exception handlers.
We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage,
hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist
interrupts, so we have to handle those.
In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just
a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch
and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space.
We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use
anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it.
We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a
kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers,
so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct.
The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have
to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition
(partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and
exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run
in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction.
This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes
it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We
require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in
order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that
we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now,
since huge pages can't be paged or swapped.
This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

In preparation for adding code to enable KVM to use hypervisor mode
on 64-bit Book 3S processors, this splits book3s.c into two files,
book3s.c and book3s_pr.c, where book3s_pr.c contains the code that is
specific to running the guest in problem state (user mode) and book3s.c
contains code which should apply to all Book 3S processors.
In doing this, we abstract some details, namely the interrupt offset,
updating the interrupt pending flag, and detecting if the guest is
in a critical section. These are all things that will be different
when we use hypervisor mode.
