    MIPS: KVM: Add base guest FPU support · 98e91b84
    James Hogan authored
    Add base code for supporting FPU in MIPS KVM guests. The FPU cannot yet
    be enabled in the guest, we're just laying the groundwork.
    
    Whether the guest's FPU context is loaded is stored in a bit in the
    fpu_inuse vcpu member. This allows the FPU to be disabled when the guest
    disables it, but keeping the FPU context loaded so it doesn't have to be
    reloaded if the guest re-enables it.
    
    An fpu_enabled vcpu member stores whether userland has enabled the FPU
    capability (which will be wired up in a later patch).
    
    New assembly code is added for saving and restoring the FPU context, and
    for saving/clearing and restoring FCSR (which can itself cause an FP
    exception depending on the value). The FCSR is restored before returning
    to the guest if the FPU is already enabled, and a die notifier is
    registered to catch the possible FP exception and step over the ctc1
    instruction.
    
    The helper function kvm_lose_fpu() is added to save FPU context and
    disable the FPU, which is used when saving hardware state before a
    context switch or KVM exit (the vcpu_get_regs() callback).
    
    The helper function kvm_own_fpu() is added to enable the FPU and restore
    the FPU context if it isn't already loaded, which will be used in a
    later patch when the guest attempts to use the FPU for the first time
    and triggers a co-processor unusable exception.
    
    The helper function kvm_drop_fpu() is added to discard the FPU context
    and disable the FPU, which will be used in a later patch when the FPU
    state will become architecturally UNPREDICTABLE (change of FR mode) to
    force a reload of [stale] context in the new FR mode.
