a3ff5fbc94 KVM: PPC: Ignore PIR writes
While technically it's legal to write to PIR and have the identifier changed,
we don't implement logic to do so because we simply expose vcpu_id to the guest.

So instead, let's ignore writes to PIR. This ensures that we don't inject faults
into the guest for something the guest is allowed to do. While at it, we cross
our fingers hoping that it also doesn't mind that we broke its PIR read values.

54771e6217 KVM: PPC: Emulator: clean up SPR reads and writes
When reading and writing SPRs, every SPR emulation piece had to read
or write the respective GPR the value was read from or stored in itself.

This approach is pretty prone to failure. What if we accidentally
implement mfspr emulation where we just do "break" and nothing else?
Suddenly we would get a random value in the return register - which is
always a bad idea.

So let's consolidate the generic code paths and only give the core
specific SPR handling code readily made variables to read/write from/to.

Functionally, this patch doesn't change anything, but it increases the
readability of the code and makes is less prone to bugs.

c46dc9a861 KVM: PPC: Emulator: clean up instruction parsing
Instructions on PPC are pretty similarly encoded. So instead of
every instruction emulation code decoding the instruction fields
itself, we can move that code to more generic places and rely on
the compiler to optimize the unused bits away.

This has 2 advantages. It makes the code smaller and it makes the
code less error prone, as the instruction fields are always
available, so accidental misusage is reduced.

Functionally, this patch doesn't change anything.

6e35994d1f KVM: PPC: Use clockevent multiplier and shifter for decrementer
Time for which the hrtimer is started for decrementer emulation is calculated
using tb_ticks_per_usec. While hrtimer uses the clockevent for DEC
reprogramming (if needed) and which calculate timebase ticks using the
multiplier and shifter mechanism implemented within clockevent layer.

It was observed that this conversion (timebase->time->timebase) are not
correct because the mechanism are not consistent.
In our setup it adds 2% jitter.

With this patch clockevent multiplier and shifter mechanism are used when
starting hrtimer for decrementer emulation. Now the jitter is < 0.5%.

6020c0f6e7 KVM: PPC: Pass EA to updating emulation ops
When emulating updating load/store instructions (lwzu, stwu, ...) we need to
write the effective address of the load/store into a register.

Currently, we write the physical address in there, which is very wrong. So
instead let's save off where the virtual fault was on MMIO and use that
information as value to put into the register.

While at it, also move the XOP variants of the above instructions to the new
scheme of using the already known vaddr instead of calculating it themselves.

dfd4d47e9a KVM: PPC: booke: Improve timer register emulation
Decrementers are now properly driven by TCR/TSR, and the guest
has full read/write access to these registers.

The decrementer keeps ticking (and setting the TSR bit) regardless of
whether the interrupts are enabled with TCR.

The decrementer stops at zero, rather than going negative.

Decrementers (and FITs, once implemented) are delivered as
level-triggered interrupts -- dequeued when the TSR bit is cleared, not
on delivery.

b59049720d KVM: PPC: Paravirtualize SPRG4-7, ESR, PIR, MASn
This allows additional registers to be accessed by the guest
in PR-mode KVM without trapping.

SPRG4-7 are readable from userspace.  On booke, KVM will sync
these registers when it enters the guest, so that accesses from
guest userspace will work.  The guest kernel, OTOH, must consistently
use either the real registers or the shared area between exits.  This
also applies to the already-paravirted SPRG3.

On non-booke, it's not clear to what extent SPRG4-7 are supported
(they're not architected for book3s, but exist on at least some classic
chips).  They are copied in the get/set regs ioctls, but I do not see any
non-booke emulation.  I also do not see any syncing with real registers
(in PR-mode) including the user-readable SPRG3.  This patch should not
make that situation any worse.

b4433a7cce KVM: PPC: Implement 'skip instruction' mode
To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early
exit code, where we are still in a very transitional phase between guest
and host state.

Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our
TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally
breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries.

To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines
that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into
the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction.

That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later
on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".

73e75b416f KVM: ppc: Implement in-kernel exit timing statistics
Existing KVM statistics are either just counters (kvm_stat) reported for
KVM generally or trace based aproaches like kvm_trace.
For KVM on powerpc we had the need to track the timings of the different exit
types. While this could be achieved parsing data created with a kvm_trace
extension this adds too much overhead (at least on embedded PowerPC) slowing
down the workloads we wanted to measure.

Therefore this patch adds a in-kernel exit timing statistic to the powerpc kvm
code. These statistic is available per vm&vcpu under the kvm debugfs directory.
As this statistic is low, but still some overhead it can be enabled via a
.config entry and should be off by default.

Since this patch touched all powerpc kvm_stat code anyway this code is now
merged and simplified together with the exit timing statistic code (still
working with exit timing disabled in .config).

fcfdbd266a KVM: ppc: improve trap emulation
set ESR[PTR] when emulating a guest trap. This allows Linux guests to
properly handle WARN_ON() (i.e. detect that it's a non-fatal trap).

Also remove debugging printk in trap emulation.

75f74f0dbe KVM: ppc: refactor instruction emulation into generic and core-specific pieces
Cores provide 3 emulation hooks, implemented for example in the new
4xx_emulate.c:
kvmppc_core_emulate_op
kvmppc_core_emulate_mtspr
kvmppc_core_emulate_mfspr

Strictly speaking the last two aren't necessary, but provide for more
informative error reporting ("unknown SPR").

Long term I'd like to have instruction decoding autogenerated from tables of
opcodes, and that way we could aggregate universal, Book E, and core-specific
instructions more easily and without redundant switch statements.

c381a04313 ppc: Create disassemble.h to extract instruction fields
This is used in a couple places in KVM, but isn't KVM-specific.

However, this patch doesn't modify other in-kernel emulation code:
- xmon uses a direct copy of ppc_opc.c from binutils
- emulate_instruction() doesn't need it because it can use a series
  of mask tests.

9dd921cfea KVM: ppc: Refactor powerpc.c to relocate 440-specific code
This introduces a set of core-provided hooks. For 440, some of these are
implemented by booke.c, with the rest in (the new) 44x.c.

Note that these hooks are link-time, not run-time. Since it is not possible to
build a single kernel for both e500 and 440 (for example), using function
pointers would only add overhead.

49dd2c4928 KVM: powerpc: Map guest userspace with TID=0 mappings
When we use TID=N userspace mappings, we must ensure that kernel mappings have
been destroyed when entering userspace. Using TID=1/TID=0 for kernel/user
mappings and running userspace with PID=0 means that userspace can't access the
kernel mappings, but the kernel can directly access userspace.

The net is that we don't need to flush the TLB on privilege switches, but we do
on guest context switches (which are far more infrequent). Guest boot time
performance improvement: about 30%.
