KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add new POWER9 guest-accessible SPRs

2016-11-23T22:24:23Z

This adds code to handle two new guest-accessible special-purpose registers on POWER9: TIDR (thread ID register) and PSSCR (processor stop status and control register). They are context-switched between host and guest, and the guest values can be read and set via the one_reg interface. The PSSCR contains some fields which are guest-accessible and some which are only accessible in hypervisor mode. We only allow the guest-accessible fields to be read or set by userspace.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Save/restore XER in checkpointed register state

2016-11-21T04:17:55Z

When switching from/to a guest that has a transaction in progress, we need to save/restore the checkpointed register state. Although XER is part of the CPU state that gets checkpointed, the code that does this saving and restoring doesn't save/restore XER. This fixes it by saving and restoring the XER. To allow userspace to read/write the checkpointed XER value, we also add a new ONE_REG specifier. The visible effect of this bug is that the guest may see its XER value being corrupted when it uses transactions.

KVM: PPC: Add support for 64bit TCE windows

2016-03-01T22:56:50Z

The existing KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE only supports 32bit windows which is not enough for directly mapped windows as the guest can get more than 4GB. This adds KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE_64 ioctl and advertises it via KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_64 capability. The table size is checked against the locked memory limit. Since 64bit windows are to support Dynamic DMA windows (DDW), let's add @bus_offset and @page_shift which are also required by DDW. Signed-off-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix LPCR one_reg interface

2014-07-28T13:23:16Z

Unfortunately, the LPCR got defined as a 32-bit register in the one_reg interface. This is unfortunate because KVM allows userspace to control the DPFD (default prefetch depth) field, which is in the upper 32 bits. The result is that DPFD always get set to 0, which reduces performance in the guest. We can't just change KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR to be a 64-bit register ID, since that would break existing userspace binaries. Instead we define a new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id which is 64-bit. Userspace can still use the old KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR id, but it now only modifies those fields in the bottom 32 bits that userspace can modify (ILE, TC and AIL). If userspace uses the new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id, it can modify DPFD as well.

KVM: PPC: Book3S: Move KVM_REG_PPC_WORT to an unused register number

2014-05-30T12:26:28Z

Commit b005255e12a3 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Context-switch new POWER8 SPRs") added a definition of KVM_REG_PPC_WORT with the same register number as the existing KVM_REG_PPC_VRSAVE (though in fact the definitions are not identical because of the different register sizes.) For clarity, this moves KVM_REG_PPC_WORT to the next unused number, and also adds it to api.txt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add support for DABRX register on POWER7

2014-01-27T15:01:15Z

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 Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Context-switch new POWER8 SPRs

2014-01-27T15:01:00Z

This adds fields to the struct kvm_vcpu_arch to store the new guest-accessible SPRs on POWER8, adds code to the get/set_one_reg functions to allow userspace to access this state, and adds code to the guest entry and exit to context-switch these SPRs between host and guest. Note that DPDES (Directed Privileged Doorbell Exception State) is shared between threads on a core; hence we store it in struct kvmppc_vcore and have the master thread save and restore it.
