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.

User space might want to know it's running in a secure VM. It can't do a mfmsr because mfmsr is a privileged instruction. The solution here is to create a cpu attribute: /sys/devices/system/cpu/svm which will read 0 or 1 based on the S bit of the current CPU.

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.

Secure guests need to share the DTL buffers with the hypervisor. To that end, use a kmem_cache constructor which converts the underlying buddy allocated SLUB cache pages into shared memory.

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. In ultravisor enabled systems, the ultravisor is responsible to maintain the LDBAR (e.g. save and restore it). This restricts LDBAR access to only when ultravisor is disabled.

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. This patch adds the UV_WRITE_PATE ucall which is used to update the PATE for a VM (both normal and secure) when Ultravisor is enabled.

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.

Alexey Kardashevskiy authored
At the moment updates in a TCE table are made by iommu_table_ops::exchange which update one TCE and invalidates an entry in the PHB/NPU TCE cache via set of registers called "TCE Kill" (hence the naming). Writing a TCE is a simple xchg() but invalidating the TCE cache is a relatively expensive OPAL call. Mapping a 100GB guest with PCI+NPU passed through devices takes about 20s. Thankfully we can do better. Since such big mappings happen at the boot time and when memory is plugged/onlined (i.e. not often), these requests come in 512 pages so we call call OPAL 512 times less which brings 20s from the above to less than 10s. Also, since TCE caches can be flushed entirely, calling OPAL for 512 TCEs helps skiboot [1] to decide whether to flush the entire cache or not. This implements 2 new iommu_table_ops callbacks: - xchg_no_kill() to update a single TCE with no TCE invalidation; - tce_kill() to invalidate multiple TCEs. This uses the same xchg_no_kill() callback for IODA1/2. This implements 2 new wrappers on top of the new callbacks similar to the existing iommu_tce_xchg(). This does not use the new callbacks yet, the next patches will; so this should not cause any behavioral change.

H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT handlers receive a page with up to 512 TCEs from a guest. Although we verify correctness of TCEs before we do anything with the existing tables, there is a small window when a check in kvmppc_tce_validate might pass and right after that the guest alters the page with TCEs which can cause early exit from the handler and leave srcu_read_lock(&vcpu->kvm->srcu) (virtual mode) or lock_rmap(rmap) (real mode) locked.

This switches to using common code for the DMA allocations, including potential use of the CMA allocator if configured. Switching to the generic code enables DMA allocations from atomic context, which is required by the DMA API documentation, and also adds various other minor features drivers start relying upon. It also makes sure we have on tested code base for all architectures that require uncached pte bits for coherent DMA allocations. Another advantage is that consistent memory allocations now share the general vmalloc pool instead of needing an explicit careout from it.

Now that 601 is exclusive from other 6xx, CPU_FTR_601 and associated fixups are useless. Drop this feature and use #ifdefs instead.

Powerpc 601 is rather old powerpc which as some important limitations compared to other book3s/32 powerpcs: - No Timebase. - Common BATs for instruction and data. - No execution protection in segment registers. - No RI bit in MSR - ... It is starting to be difficult and cumbersome to maintain kernels that are compatible both with 601 and other 6xx cores. Create a compiletime option to exclusively select either powerpc 601 or other 6xx.
