This adds saving of the transactional memory (TM) checkpointed state on guest entry and exit. We only do this if we see that the guest has an active transaction. It also adds emulation of the TM state changes when delivering IRQs into the guest. According to the architecture, if we are transactional when an IRQ occurs, the TM state is changed to suspended, otherwise it's left unchanged.

I noticed KVM is broken when KVM in-kernel XICS emulation (CONFIG_KVM_XICS) is disabled. The problem was introduced in 48eaef05 (KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: use xics_wake_cpu only when defined). It used CONFIG_KVM_XICS to wrap xics_wake_cpu, where CONFIG_PPC_ICP_NATIVE should have been used.

This introduces the H_GET_TCE hypervisor call, which is basically the reverse of H_PUT_TCE, as defined in the Power Architecture Platform Requirements (PAPR). The hcall H_GET_TCE is required by the kdump kernel, which uses it to retrieve TCEs set up by the previous (panicked) kernel.

When the guest does an MMIO write which is handled successfully by an ioeventfd, ioeventfd_write() returns 0 (success) and kvmppc_handle_store() returns EMULATE_DONE. Then kvmppc_emulate_mmio() converts EMULATE_DONE to RESUME_GUEST_NV and this causes an exit from the loop in kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv(), causing an exit back to userspace with a bogus exit reason code, typically causing userspace (e.g. qemu) to crash with a message about an unknown exit code. This adds handling of RESUME_GUEST_NV in kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv() in order to fix that. For generality, we define a helper to check for either of the return-to-guest codes we use, RESUME_GUEST and RESUME_GUEST_NV, to make it easy to check for either and provide one place to update if any other return-to-guest code gets defined in future. Since it only affects Book3S HV for now, the helper is added to the kvm_book3s.h header file. We use the helper in two places in kvmppc_run_core() as well for future-proofing, though we don't see RESUME_GUEST_NV in either place at present.

Commit 595e4f7e ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use load/store_fp_state functions in HV guest entry/exit") changed the register usage in kvmppc_save_fp() and kvmppc_load_fp() but omitted changing the instructions that load and save VRSAVE. The result is that the VRSAVE value was loaded from a constant address, and saved to a location past the end of the vcpu struct, causing host kernel memory corruption and various kinds of host kernel crashes. This fixes the problem by using register r31, which contains the vcpu pointer, instead of r3 and r4.

Commit 7b490411 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add new state for transactional memory") incorrectly added some duplicate code to the guest exit path because I didn't manage to clean up after a rebase correctly.

When Hyper-V hypervisor leaves are present, KVM must relocate its own leaves at 0x40000100, because Windows does not look for Hyper-V leaves at indices other than 0x40000000. In this case, the KVM features are at 0x40000101, but the old code would always look at 0x40000001. Fix by using kvm_cpuid_base(). This also requires making the function non-inline, since kvm_cpuid_base() is static.

We create a guest MSR from scratch when delivering exceptions in a few places. Instead of extracting LPCR[ILE] and inserting it into MSR_LE each time, we simply create a new variable intr_msr which contains the entire MSR to use. For a little-endian guest, userspace needs to set the ILE (interrupt little-endian) bit in the LPCR for each vcpu (or at least one vcpu in each virtual core).

The DABRX (DABR extension) register on POWER7 processors provides finer control over which accesses cause a data breakpoint interrupt. It contains 3 bits which indicate whether to enable accesses in user, kernel and hypervisor modes respectively to cause data breakpoint interrupts, plus one bit that enables both real mode and virtual mode accesses to cause interrupts. Currently, KVM sets DABRX to allow both kernel and user accesses to cause interrupts while in the guest. This adds support for the guest to specify other values for DABRX. PAPR defines a H_SET_XDABR hcall to allow the guest to set both DABR and DABRX with one call. This adds a real-mode implementation of H_SET_XDABR, which shares most of its code with the existing H_SET_DABR implementation. To support this, we add a per-vcpu field to store the DABRX value plus code to get and set it via the ONE_REG interface. For Linux guests to use this new hcall, userspace needs to add "hcall-xdabr" to the set of strings in the /chosen/hypertas-functions property in the device tree. If userspace does this and then migrates the guest to a host where the kernel doesn't include this patch, then userspace will need to implement H_SET_XDABR by writing the specified DABR value to the DABR using the ONE_REG interface. In that case, the old kernel will set DABRX to DABRX_USER | DABRX_KERNEL. That should still work correctly, at least for Linux guests, since Linux guests cope with getting data breakpoint interrupts in modes that weren't requested by just ignoring the interrupt, and Linux guests never set DABRX_BTI. The other thing this does is to make H_SET_DABR and H_SET_XDABR work on POWER8, which has the DAWR and DAWRX instead of DABR/X. Guests that know about POWER8 should use H_SET_MODE rather than H_SET_[X]DABR, but guests running in POWER7 compatibility mode will still use H_SET_[X]DABR. For them, this adds the logic to convert DABR/X values into DAWR/X values on POWER8. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

Currently in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S we have three places where we have woken up from nap mode and we check the reason field in SRR1 to see what event woke us up. This consolidates them into a new function, kvmppc_check_wake_reason. It looks at the wake reason field in SRR1, and if it indicates that an external interrupt caused the wakeup, calls kvmppc_read_intr to check what sort of interrupt it was. This also consolidates the two places where we synthesize an external interrupt (0x500 vector) for the guest. Now, if the guest exit code finds that there was an external interrupt which has been handled (i.e. it was an IPI indicating that there is now an interrupt pending for the guest), it jumps to deliver_guest_interrupt, which is in the last part of the guest entry code, where we synthesize guest external and decrementer interrupts. That code has been streamlined a little and now clears LPCR[MER] when appropriate as well as setting it. The extra clearing of any pending IPI on a secondary, offline CPU thread before going back to nap mode has been removed. It is no longer necessary now that we have code to read and acknowledge IPIs in the guest exit path. This fixes a minor bug in the H_CEDE real-mode handling - previously, if we found that other threads were already exiting the guest when we were about to go to nap mode, we would branch to the cede wakeup path and end up looking in SRR1 for a wakeup reason. Now we branch to a point after we have checked the wakeup reason. This also fixes a minor bug in kvmppc_read_intr - previously it could return 0xff rather than 1, in the case where we find that a host IPI is pending after we have cleared the IPI. Now it returns 1.

On a threaded processor such as POWER7, we group VCPUs into virtual cores and arrange that the VCPUs in a virtual core run on the same physical core. Currently we don't enforce any correspondence between virtual thread numbers within a virtual core and physical thread numbers. Physical threads are allocated starting at 0 on a first-come first-served basis to runnable virtual threads (VCPUs). POWER8 implements a new "msgsndp" instruction which guest kernels can use to interrupt other threads in the same core or sub-core. Since the instruction takes the destination physical thread ID as a parameter, it becomes necessary to align the physical thread IDs with the virtual thread IDs, that is, to make sure virtual thread N within a virtual core always runs on physical thread N. This means that it's possible that thread 0, which is where we call __kvmppc_vcore_entry, may end up running some other vcpu than the one whose task called kvmppc_run_core(), or it may end up running no vcpu at all, if for example thread 0 of the virtual core is currently executing in userspace. However, we do need thread 0 to be responsible for switching the MMU -- a previous version of this patch that had other threads switching the MMU was found to be responsible for occasional memory corruption and machine check interrupts in the guest on POWER7 machines. To accommodate this, we no longer pass the vcpu pointer to __kvmppc_vcore_entry, but instead let the assembly code load it from the PACA. Since the assembly code will need to know the kvm pointer and the thread ID for threads which don't have a vcpu, we move the thread ID into the PACA and we add a kvm pointer to the virtual core structure. In the case where thread 0 has no vcpu to run, it still calls into kvmppc_hv_entry in order to do the MMU switch, and then naps until either its vcpu is ready to run in the guest, or some other thread needs to exit the guest. In the latter case, thread 0 jumps to the code that switches the MMU back to the host. This control flow means that now we switch the MMU before loading any guest vcpu state. Similarly, on guest exit we now save all the guest vcpu state before switching the MMU back to the host. This has required substantial code movement, making the diff rather large.

MMIO emulation reads the last instruction executed by the guest and then emulates. If the guest is running in Little Endian order, or more generally in a different endian order of the host, the instruction needs to be byte-swapped before being emulated. This patch adds a helper routine which tests the endian order of the host and the guest in order to decide whether a byteswap is needed or not. It is then used to byteswap the last instruction of the guest in the endian order of the host before MMIO emulation is performed. Finally, kvmppc_handle_load() of kvmppc_handle_store() are modified to reverse the endianness of the MMIO if required.

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "Two major features that Xen community is excited about: The first is event channel scalability by David Vrabel - we switch over from an two-level per-cpu bitmap of events (IRQs) - to an FIFO queue with priorities. This lets us be able to handle more events, have lower latency, and better scalability. Good stuff. The other is PVH by Mukesh Rathor. In short, PV is a mode where the kernel lets the hypervisor program page-tables, segments, etc. With EPT/NPT capabilities in current processors, the overhead of doing this in an HVM (Hardware Virtual Machine) container is much lower than the hypervisor doing it for us. In short we let a PV guest run without doing page-table, segment, syscall, etc updates through the hypervisor - instead it is all done within the guest container. It is a "hybrid" PV - hence the 'PVH' name - a PV guest within an HVM container. The major benefits are less code to deal with - for example we only use one function from the the pv_mmu_ops (which has 39 function calls); faster performance for syscall (no context switches into the hypervisor); less traps on various operations; etc. It is still being baked - the ABI is not yet set in stone. But it is pretty awesome and we are excited about it. Lastly, there are some changes to ARM code - you should get a simple conflict which has been resolved in #linux-next. In short, this pull has awesome features. Features: - FIFO event channels. Key advantages: support for over 100,000 events (2^17), 16 different event priorities, improved fairness in event latency through the use of FIFOs. - Xen PVH support. "It’s a fully PV kernel mode, running with paravirtualized disk and network, paravirtualized interrupts and timers, no emulated devices of any kind (and thus no qemu), no BIOS or legacy boot — but instead of requiring PV MMU, it uses the HVM hardware extensions to virtualize the pagetables, as well as system calls and other privileged operations." (from "The Paravirtualization Spectrum, Part 2: From poles to a spectrum") Bug-fixes: - Fixes in balloon driver (refactor and make it work under ARM) - Allow xenfb to be used in HVM guests. - Allow xen_platform_pci=0 to work properly. - Refactors in event channels" * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.14-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip: (52 commits) xen/pvh: Set X86_CR0_WP and others in CR0 (v2) MAINTAINERS: add git repository for Xen xen/pvh: Use 'depend' instead of 'select'. xen: delete new instances of __cpuinit usage xen/fb: allow xenfb initialization for hvm guests xen/evtchn_fifo: fix error return code in evtchn_fifo_setup() xen-platform: fix error return code in platform_pci_init() xen/pvh: remove duplicated include from enlighten.c xen/pvh: Fix compile issues with xen_pvh_domain() xen: Use dev_is_pci() to check whether it is pci device xen/grant-table: Force to use v1 of grants. xen/pvh: Support ParaVirtualized Hardware extensions (v3). xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM XenBus. xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for grant driver (v4) xen/grant: Implement an grant frame array struct (v3). xen/grant-table: Refactor gnttab_init xen/grants: Remove gnttab_max_grant_frames dependency on gnttab_init. xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for event channels (v2) xen/pvh: Update E820 to work with PVH (v2) xen/pvh: Secondary VCPU bringup (non-bootup CPUs) ...
