      powerpc/64s: Better printing of machine check info for guest MCEs · c0577201
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      This adds an "in_guest" parameter to machine_check_print_event_info()
so that we can avoid trying to translate guest NIP values into
symbolic form using the host kernel's symbol table.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Simplify machine check handling · 884dfb72
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      This makes the handling of machine check interrupts that occur inside
a guest simpler and more robust, with less done in assembler code and
in real mode.

Now, when a machine check occurs inside a guest, we always get the
machine check event struct and put a copy in the vcpu struct for the
vcpu where the machine check occurred.  We no longer call
machine_check_queue_event() from kvmppc_realmode_mc_power7(), because
on POWER8, when a vcpu is running on an offline secondary thread and
we call machine_check_queue_event(), that calls irq_work_queue(),
which doesn't work because the CPU is offline, but instead triggers
the WARN_ON(lazy_irq_pending()) in pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() (which
fires again and again because nothing clears the condition).

All that machine_check_queue_event() actually does is to cause the
event to be printed to the console.  For a machine check occurring in
the guest, we now print the event in kvmppc_handle_exit_hv()
instead.

The assembly code at label machine_check_realmode now just calls C
code and then continues exiting the guest.  We no longer either
synthesize a machine check for the guest in assembly code or return
to the guest without a machine check.

The code in kvmppc_handle_exit_hv() is extended to handle the case
where the guest is not FWNMI-capable.  In that case we now always
synthesize a machine check interrupt for the guest.  Previously, if
the host thinks it has recovered the machine check fully, it would
return to the guest without any notification that the machine check
had occurred.  If the machine check was caused by some action of the
guest (such as creating duplicate SLB entries), it is much better to
tell the guest that it has caused a problem.  Therefore we now always
generate a machine check interrupt for guests that are not
FWNMI-capable.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Context switch AMR on Power9 · d976f680
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      kvmhv_p9_guest_entry() implements a fast-path guest entry for Power9
when guest and host are both running with the Radix MMU.

Currently in that path we don't save the host AMR (Authority Mask
Register) value, and we always restore 0 on return to the host. That
is OK at the moment because the AMR is not used for storage keys with
the Radix MMU.

However we plan to start using the AMR on Radix to prevent the kernel
from reading/writing to userspace outside of copy_to/from_user(). In
order to make that work we need to save/restore the AMR value.

We only restore the value if it is different from the guest value,
which is already in the register when we exit to the host. This should
mean we rarely need to actually restore the value when running a
modern Linux as a guest, because it will be using the same value as
us.

      powerpc/64s: Fix possible corruption on big endian due to pgd/pud_present() · a5800762
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      In v4.20 we changed our pgd/pud_present() to check for _PAGE_PRESENT
rather than just checking that the value is non-zero, e.g.:

  static inline int pgd_present(pgd_t pgd)
  {
 -       return !pgd_none(pgd);
 +       return (pgd_raw(pgd) & cpu_to_be64(_PAGE_PRESENT));
  }

Unfortunately this is broken on big endian, as the result of the
bitwise & is truncated to int, which is always zero because
_PAGE_PRESENT is 0x8000000000000000ul. This means pgd_present() and
pud_present() are always false at compile time, and the compiler
elides the subsequent code.

Remarkably with that bug present we are still able to boot and run
with few noticeable effects. However under some work loads we are able
to trigger a warning in the ext4 code:

  WARNING: CPU: 11 PID: 29593 at fs/ext4/inode.c:3927 .ext4_set_page_dirty+0x70/0xb0
  CPU: 11 PID: 29593 Comm: debugedit Not tainted 4.20.0-rc1 #1
  ...
  NIP .ext4_set_page_dirty+0x70/0xb0

  Call Trace:

   .__vm_munmap+0x80/0x110
   .__se_sys_munmap+0x14/0x30
   system_call+0x5c/0x70

The fix is simple, we need to convert the result of the bitwise & to
an int before returning it.

Thanks to Erhard, Jan Kara and Aneesh for help with debugging.
