Follow the pattern of sreset and HMI handlers more closely: use EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON_1 rather than open-coding it, and run the handler at the relocated location.

The powernv machine check handler copes with taking a MCE from one of three contexts, guest, kernel, and user. In each case the early handler runs first on a special stack, then: - The guest case branches to the KVM interrupt handler (via standard interrupt macros). - The user case will run the "late" handler which is like a normal interrupt that runs in virtual mode and uses the regular kernel stack. - The kernel case queues the event and schedules it for processing with irq work. The last case is important, it must not enable virtual memory because the MMU state may not be set up to deal with that (e.g., SLB might be clear), it must not use the regular kernel stack for similar reasons (e.g., might be in OPAL with OPAL stack in r1), and the kernel does not expect anything to touch its stack if interrupts are disabled. The pseries handler does not do this queueing, but instead it always runs the late handler for host MCEs, which has some of the same problems. Now that pseries is using machine_check_events, change it to do the same as powernv and queue events for kernel MCEs.

The common machine_check_event data structures and queues are mostly platform independent, with powernv decoding SRR1/DSISR/etc., into machine_check_event objects. This patch converts pseries to use this infrastructure by decoding fwnmi/rtas data into machine_check_event objects. This allows queueing to be used by a subsequent change to delay the virtual mode handling of machine checks that occur in kernel space where it is unsafe to switch immediately to virtual mode, similarly to powernv.

Bare metal machine checks run an "early" handler in real mode before running the main handler which reports the event. The main handler runs exactly as a normal interrupt handler, after the "windup" which sets registers back as they were at interrupt entry. CFAR does not get restored by the windup code, so that will be wrong when the handler is run. Restore the CFAR to the saved value before running the late handler.

Now that pseries with fwnmi registered runs the early machine check handler, there is no good reason to special case the non-fwnmi case and skip the early handler. Reducing the code and number of paths is a top priority for asm code, it's better to handle this in C where possible (and the pseries early handler is a no-op if fwnmi is not registered).

SWIOTLB checks range of incoming CPU addresses to be bounced and sees if the device can access it through its DMA window without requiring bouncing. In such cases it just chooses to skip bouncing. But for cases like secure guests on powerpc platform all addresses need to be bounced into the shared pool of memory because the host cannot access it otherwise. Hence the need to do the bouncing is not related to device's DMA window and use of bounce buffers is forced by setting swiotlb_force. Also, connect the shared memory conversion functions into the ARCH_HAS_MEM_ENCRYPT hooks and call swiotlb_update_mem_attributes() to convert SWIOTLB's memory pool to shared memory.

Normally, the HV emulates some instructions like MSGSNDP, MSGCLRP from a KVM guest. To emulate the instructions, it must first read the instruction from the guest's memory and decode its parameters. However for a secure guest (aka SVM), the page containing the instruction is in secure memory and the HV cannot access directly. It would need the Ultravisor (UV) to facilitate accessing the instruction and parameters but the UV currently does not have the support for such accesses. Until the UV has such support, disable doorbells in SVMs. This might incur a performance hit but that is yet to be quantified. With this patch applied (needed only in SVMs not needed for HV) we are able to launch SVM guests with multi-core support. Eg: qemu -smp sockets=2,cores=2,threads=2. Fix suggested by Benjamin Herrenschmidt. Thanks to input from Paul Mackerras, Ram Pai and Michael Anderson.

A new kernel deserves a clean slate. Any pages shared with the hypervisor is unshared before invoking the new kernel. However there are exceptions. If the new kernel is invoked to dump the current kernel, or if there is a explicit request to preserve the state of the current kernel, unsharing of pages is skipped. NOTE: While testing crashkernel, make sure at least 256M is reserved for crashkernel. Otherwise SWIOTLB allocation will fail and crash kernel will fail to boot.

LPPACA structures need to be shared with the host. Hence they need to be in shared memory. Instead of allocating individual chunks of memory for a given structure from memblock, a contiguous chunk of memory is allocated and then converted into shared memory. Subsequent allocation requests will come from the contiguous chunk which will be always shared memory for all structures. While we are able to use a kmem_cache constructor for the Debug Trace Log, LPPACAs are allocated very early in the boot process (before SLUB is available) so we need to use a simpler scheme here. Introduce helper is_svm_platform() which uses the S bit of the MSR to tell whether we're running as a secure guest.

Protected Execution Facility (PEF) is an architectural change for POWER 9 that enables Secure Virtual Machines (SVMs). When enabled, PEF adds a new higher privileged mode, called Ultravisor mode, to POWER architecture. The hardware changes include the following: * There is a new bit in the MSR that determines whether the current process is running in secure mode, MSR(S) bit 41. MSR(S)=1, process is in secure mode, MSR(s)=0 process is in normal mode. * The MSR(S) bit can only be set by the Ultravisor. * HRFID cannot be used to set the MSR(S) bit. If the hypervisor needs to return to a SVM it must use an ultracall. It can determine if the VM it is returning to is secure. * The privilege of a process is now determined by three MSR bits, MSR(S, HV, PR). In each of the tables below the modes are listed from least privilege to highest privilege. The higher privilege modes can access all the resources of the lower privilege modes. **Secure Mode MSR Settings** +---+---+---+---------------+ | S | HV| PR|Privilege | +===+===+===+===============+ | 1 | 0 | 1 | Problem | +---+---+---+---------------+ | 1 | 0 | 0 | Privileged(OS)| +---+---+---+---------------+ | 1 | 1 | 0 | Ultravisor | +---+---+---+---------------+ | 1 | 1 | 1 | Reserved | +---+---+---+---------------+ **Normal Mode MSR Settings** +---+---+---+---------------+ | S | HV| PR|Privilege | +===+===+===+===============+ | 0 | 0 | 1 | Problem | +---+---+---+---------------+ | 0 | 0 | 0 | Privileged(OS)| +---+---+---+---------------+ | 0 | 1 | 0 | Hypervisor | +---+---+---+---------------+ | 0 | 1 | 1 | Problem (HV) | +---+---+---+---------------+ Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ram Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com> [ cclaudio: Update the commit message ] Signed-off-by: Claudio Carvalho <cclaudio@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190820021326.6884-7-bauerman@linux.ibm.com

For secure VMs, the signing tool will create a ticket called the "ESM blob" for the Enter Secure Mode ultravisor call with the signatures of the kernel and initrd among other things. This adds support to the wrapper script for adding that blob via the "-e" option to the zImage.pseries. It also adds code to the zImage wrapper itself to retrieve and if necessary relocate the blob, and pass its address to Linux via the device-tree, to be later consumed by prom_init.

When an SVM makes an hypercall or incurs some other exception, the Ultravisor usually forwards (a.k.a. reflects) the exceptions to the Hypervisor. After processing the exception, Hypervisor uses the UV_RETURN ultracall to return control back to the SVM. The expected register state on entry to this ultracall is: * Non-volatile registers are restored to their original values. * If returning from an hypercall, register R0 contains the return value (unlike other ultracalls) and, registers R4 through R12 contain any output values of the hypercall. * R3 contains the ultracall number, i.e UV_RETURN. * If returning with a synthesized interrupt, R2 contains the synthesized interrupt number.

LDBAR is a per-thread SPR populated and used by the thread-imc pmu driver to dump the data counter into memory. It contains memory along with few other configuration bits. LDBAR is populated and enabled only when any of the thread imc pmu events are monitored. In ultravisor enabled systems, LDBAR becomes ultravisor privileged and an attempt to write to it will cause a Hypervisor Emulation Assistance interrupt.

When Ultravisor (UV) is enabled, the partition table is stored in secure memory and can only be accessed via the UV. The Hypervisor (HV) however maintains a copy of the partition table in normal memory to allow Nest MMU translations to occur (for normal VMs). The HV copy includes partition table entries (PATE)s for secure VMs which would currently be unused (Nest MMU translations cannot access secure memory) but they would be needed as we add functionality.

The ultracalls (ucalls for short) allow the Secure Virtual Machines (SVM)s and hypervisor to request services from the ultravisor such as accessing a register or memory region that can only be accessed when running in ultravisor-privileged mode. This patch adds the ucall_norets() ultravisor call handler. The specific service needed from an ucall is specified in register R3 (the first parameter to the ucall). Other parameters to the ucall, if any, are specified in registers R4 through R12. Return value of all ucalls is in register R3. Other output values from the ucall, if any, are returned in registers R4 through R12. Each ucall returns specific error codes, applicable in the context of the ucall. However, like with the PowerPC Architecture Platform Reference (PAPR), if no specific error code is defined for a particular situation, then the ucall will fallback to an erroneous parameter-position based code. i.e U_PARAMETER, U_P2, U_P3 etc depending on the ucall parameter that may have caused the error. Every host kernel (powernv) needs to be able to do ucalls in case it ends up being run in a machine with ultravisor enabled. Otherwise, the kernel may crash early in boot trying to access ultravisor resources, for instance, trying to set the partition table entry 0. Secure guests also need to be able to do ucalls and its kernel may not have CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV=y. For that reason, the ucall.S file is placed under arch/powerpc/kernel. If ultravisor is not enabled, the ucalls will be redirected to the hypervisor which must handle/fail the call. Thanks to inputs from Ram Pai and Michael Anderson.
