Implement sigp external call, which might be required for guests that issue an external call instead of an emergency signal for IPI. This fixes an issue with "KVM: unknown SIGP: 0x02" when booting such an SMP guest. Signed-off-by:

KVM common code does vcpu_load prior to calling our arch ioctls and vcpu_put after we're done here. Via the kvm_arch_vcpu_load/put callbacks we do load the fpu and access register state into the processor, which saves us moving the state on every SIE exit the kernel handles. However this breaks register setting from userspace, because of the following sequence: 1a. vcpu load stores userspace register content 1b. vcpu load loads guest register content 2. kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu/sregs updates saved guest register content 3a. vcpu put stores the guest registers and overwrites the new content 3b. vcpu put loads the userspace register set again This patch loads the new guest register state into the cpu, so that the correct (new) set of guest registers will be stored in step 3a.

We use the cpu id provided by userspace as array index here. Thus we clearly need to check it first. Ooops. CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by:

If simultaneous NMIs happen, we're supposed to queue the second and next (collapsing them), but currently we sometimes collapse the second into the first. Fix by using a counter for pending NMIs instead of a bool; since the counter limit depends on whether the processor is currently in an NMI handler, which can only be checked in vcpu context (via the NMI mask), we add a new KVM_REQ_NMI to request recalculation of the counter.

The opcodes push %seg pop %seg l%seg, %mem, %reg (e.g. lds/les/lss/lfs/lgs) all have an segment register encoded in the instruction. To allow reuse, decode the segment number into src2 during the decode stage instead of the execution stage. Signed-off-by:

OpReg decoding has a hack that inhibits byte registers for movsx and movzx instructions. It should be replaced by something better, but meanwhile, qualify that the hack is only active for the destination operand. Note these instructions only use OpReg for the destination, but better to be explicit about it. Signed-off-by:

Unifiying the operands means not taking advantage of the fact that some operand types can only go into certain operands (for example, DI can only be used by the destination), so we need more bits to hold the operand type. Signed-off-by:

The TEST instruction doesn't write its destination operand. This could cause problems if an MMIO register was accessed using the TEST instruction. Recently Windows XP was observed to use TEST against the APIC ICR; this can cause spurious IPIs. Signed-off-by:

We only perform work in kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq if the guest IRQ is of INTx type. This completely avoids the callback invocation in non-INTx cases by registering the IRQ ack notifier only for INTx. Signed-off-by:

We have two emulate-with-extended-accumulator implementations: once which expect traps (_ex) and one which doesn't (plain). Drop the plain implementation and always use the one which expects traps; it will simply return 0 in the _ex argument and we can happily ignore it. Signed-off-by:

With a KVM guest operating in SMT4 mode (i.e. 4 hardware threads per core), whenever a CPU goes idle, we have to pull all the other hardware threads in the core out of the guest, because the H_CEDE hcall is handled in the kernel. This is inefficient. This adds code to book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S to handle the H_CEDE hcall in real mode. When a guest vcpu does an H_CEDE hcall, we now only exit to the kernel if all the other vcpus in the same core are also idle. Otherwise we mark this vcpu as napping, save state that could be lost in nap mode (mainly GPRs and FPRs), and execute the nap instruction. When the thread wakes up, because of a decrementer or external interrupt, we come back in at kvm_start_guest (from the system reset interrupt vector), find the `napping' flag set in the paca, and go to the resume path. This has some other ramifications. First, when starting a core, we now start all the threads, both those that are immediately runnable and those that are idle. This is so that we don't have to pull all the threads out of the guest when an idle thread gets a decrementer interrupt and wants to start running. In fact the idle threads will all start with the H_CEDE hcall returning; being idle they will just do another H_CEDE immediately and go to nap mode. This required some changes to kvmppc_run_core() and kvmppc_run_vcpu(). These functions have been restructured to make them simpler and clearer. We introduce a level of indirection in the wait queue that gets woken when external and decrementer interrupts get generated for a vcpu, so that we can have the 4 vcpus in a vcore using the same wait queue. We need this because the 4 vcpus are being handled by one thread. Secondly, when we need to exit from the guest to the kernel, we now have to generate an IPI for any napping threads, because an HDEC interrupt doesn't wake up a napping thread. Thirdly, we now need to be able to handle virtual external interrupts and decrementer interrupts becoming pending while a thread is napping, and deliver those interrupts to the guest when the thread wakes. This is done in kvmppc_cede_reentry, just before fast_guest_return. Finally, since we are not using the generic kvm_vcpu_block for book3s_hv, and hence not calling kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable, we can remove the #ifdef from kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable. Signed-off-by:

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:

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. Signed-off-by: -

There are multiple features in PowerPC KVM that can now be enabled depending on the user's wishes. Some of the combinations don't make sense or don't work though. So this patch adds a way to check if the executing environment would actually be able to run the guest properly. It also adds sanity checks if PVR is set (should always be true given the current code flow), if PAPR is only used with book3s_64 where it works and that HV KVM is only used in PAPR mode.

Now that Book3S PV mode can also run PAPR guests, we can add a PAPR cap and enable it for all Book3S targets. Enabling that CAP switches KVM into PAPR mode. Signed-off-by:
