last week. It's mostly the same stuff that was in next already, I
just added two patches today which are the wiring up of lockref for
powerpc, which for some reason fell through the cracks last time and
is trivial.
The highlights are, in addition to a bunch of bug fixes:
- Reworked Machine Check handling on kernels running without a
hypervisor (or acting as a hypervisor). Provides hooks to handle
some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
etc...
- Support for retrieving memory error information from the service
processor on IBM servers running without a hypervisor and routing
them to the memory poison infrastructure.

asm-offset bits that are going to be required.
This also moves the existing TFHAR, TFIAR and TEXASR SPRs into a

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.

This adds fields to the struct kvm_vcpu_arch to store the new

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

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.

There are a few things that make the existing hw tablewalk handlers
unsuitable for e6500:
- Indirect entries go in TLB1 (though the resulting direct entries go in
TLB0).
- It has threads, but no "tlbsrx." -- so we need a spinlock and
a normal "tlbsx". Because we need this lock, hardware tablewalk
is mandatory on e6500 unless we want to add spinlock+tlbsx to
the normal bolted TLB miss handler.
- TLB1 has no HES (nor next-victim hint) so we need software round robin
(TODO: integrate this round robin data with hugetlb/KVM)
- The existing tablewalk handlers map half of a page table at a time,
because IBM hardware has a fixed 1MiB indirect page size. e6500
has variable size indirect entries, with a minimum of 2MiB.
So we can't do the half-page indirect mapping, and even if we
could it would be less efficient than mapping the full page.
- Like on e5500, the linear mapping is bolted, so we don't need the
overhead of supporting nested tlb misses.
Note that hardware tablewalk does not work in rev1 of e6500.
We do not expect to support e6500 rev1 in mainline Linux.

Move machine check entry point into Linux. So far we were dependent on
firmware to decode MCE error details and handover the high level info to OS.
This patch introduces early machine check routine that saves the MCE
information (srr1, srr0, dar and dsisr) to the emergency stack. We allocate
stack frame on emergency stack and set the r1 accordingly. This allows us to be
prepared to take another exception without loosing context. One thing to note
here that, if we get another machine check while ME bit is off then we risk a
checkstop. Hence we restrict ourselves to save only MCE information and
register saved on PACA_EXMC save are before we turn the ME bit on. We use
paca->in_mce flag to differentiate between first entry and nested machine check
entry which helps proper use of emergency stack. We increment paca->in_mce
every time we enter in early machine check handler and decrement it while
leaving. When we enter machine check early handler first time (paca->in_mce ==
0), we are sure nobody is using MC emergency stack and allocate a stack frame
at the start of the emergency stack. During subsequent entry (paca->in_mce >
0), we know that r1 points inside emergency stack and we allocate separate
stack frame accordingly. This prevents us from clobbering MCE information
during nested machine checks.
The early machine check handler changes are placed under CPU_FTR_HVMODE
section. This makes sure that the early machine check handler will get executed
only in hypervisor kernel.
This is the code flow:

Currently PR-style KVM keeps the volatile guest register values
(R0 - R13, CR, LR, CTR, XER, PC) in a shadow_vcpu struct rather than
the main kvm_vcpu struct. For 64-bit, the shadow_vcpu exists in two
places, a kmalloc'd struct and in the PACA, and it gets copied back
and forth in kvmppc_core_vcpu_load/put(), because the real-mode code
can't rely on being able to access the kmalloc'd struct.
This changes the code to copy the volatile values into the shadow_vcpu
as one of the last things done before entering the guest. Similarly
the values are copied back out of the shadow_vcpu to the kvm_vcpu
immediately after exiting the guest. We arrange for interrupts to be
still disabled at this point so that we can't get preempted on 64-bit
and end up copying values from the wrong PACA.
This means that the accessor functions in kvm_book3s.h for these
registers are greatly simplified, and are same between PR and HV KVM.
In places where accesses to shadow_vcpu fields are now replaced by
accesses to the kvm_vcpu, we can also remove the svcpu_get/put pairs.
Finally, on 64-bit, we don't need the kmalloc'd struct at all any more.
With this, the time to read the PVR one million times in a loop went
from 567.7ms to 575.5ms (averages of 6 values), an increase of about
1.4% for this worse-case test for guest entries and exits. The
standard deviation of the measurements is about 11ms, so the
difference is only marginally significant statistically.

This enables us to use the Processor Compatibility Register (PCR) on
POWER7 to put the processor into architecture 2.05 compatibility mode
when running a guest. In this mode the new instructions and registers
that were introduced on POWER7 are disabled in user mode. This
includes all the VSX facilities plus several other instructions such
as ldbrx, stdbrx, popcntw, popcntd, etc.
To select this mode, we have a new register accessible through the
set/get_one_reg interface, called KVM_REG_PPC_ARCH_COMPAT. Setting
this to zero gives the full set of capabilities of the processor.
Setting it to one of the "logical" PVR values defined in PAPR puts
the vcpu into the compatibility mode for the corresponding
architecture level. The supported values are:
0x0f000002 Architecture 2.05 (POWER6)
0x0f000003 Architecture 2.06 (POWER7)
0x0f100003 Architecture 2.06+ (POWER7+)

the corresponding PCR value are stored in the struct kvmppc_vcore, and

POWER7 and later IBM server processors have a register called the
Program Priority Register (PPR), which controls the priority of
each hardware CPU SMT thread, and affects how fast it runs compared
to other SMT threads. This priority can be controlled by writing to
the PPR or by use of a set of instructions of the form or rN,rN,rN
which are otherwise no-ops but have been defined to set the priority
to particular levels.
This adds code to context switch the PPR when entering and exiting
guests and to make the PPR value accessible through the SET/GET_ONE_REG
interface. When entering the guest, we set the PPR as late as
possible, because if we are setting a low thread priority it will
make the code run slowly from that point on. Similarly, the
first-level interrupt handlers save the PPR value in the PACA very
early on, and set the thread priority to the medium level, so that
the interrupt handling code runs at a reasonable speed.

This adds the ability to have a separate LPCR (Logical Partitioning
Control Register) value relating to a guest for each virtual core,
rather than only having a single value for the whole VM. This
corresponds to what real POWER hardware does, where there is a LPCR
per CPU thread but most of the fields are required to have the same
value on all active threads in a core.
The per-virtual-core LPCR can be read and written using the
GET/SET_ONE_REG interface. Userspace can can only modify the
following fields of the LPCR value:
DPFD Default prefetch depth
ILE Interrupt little-endian
TC Translation control (secondary HPT hash group search disable)
We still maintain a per-VM default LPCR value in kvm->arch.lpcr, which
contains bits relating to memory management, i.e. the Virtualized
Partition Memory (VPM) bits and the bits relating to guest real mode.
When this default value is updated, the update needs to be propagated
to the per-vcore values, so we add a kvmppc_update_lpcr() helper to do
that.

This allows guests to have a different timebase origin from the host.
This is needed for migration, where a guest can migrate from one host
to another and the two hosts might have a different timebase origin.
However, the timebase seen by the guest must not go backwards, and
should go forwards only by a small amount corresponding to the time
taken for the migration.
Therefore this provides a new per-vcpu value accessed via the one_reg
interface using the new KVM_REG_PPC_TB_OFFSET identifier. This value
defaults to 0 and is not modified by KVM. On entering the guest, this
value is added onto the timebase, and on exiting the guest, it is
subtracted from the timebase.
This is only supported for recent POWER hardware which has the TBU40
(timebase upper 40 bits) register. Writing to the TBU40 register only
alters the upper 40 bits of the timebase, leaving the lower 24 bits
unchanged. This provides a way to modify the timebase for guest
migration without disturbing the synchronization of the timebase
registers across CPU cores. The kernel rounds up the value given
to a multiple of 2^24.
Timebase values stored in KVM structures (struct kvm_vcpu, struct
kvmppc_vcore, etc.) are stored as host timebase values. The timebase
values in the dispatch trace log need to be guest timebase values,
however, since that is read directly by the guest. This moves the
setting of vcpu->arch.dec_expires on guest exit to a point after we
have restored the host timebase so that vcpu->arch.dec_expires is a
host timebase value.

Currently we are not saving and restoring the SIAR and SDAR registers in
the PMU (performance monitor unit) on guest entry and exit. The result
is that performance monitoring tools in the guest could get false
information about where a program was executing and what data it was
accessing at the time of a performance monitor interrupt. This fixes
it by saving and restoring these registers along with the other PMU
registers on guest entry/exit.

This provides a facility which is intended for use by KVM, where the
contents of the FP/VSX and VMX (Altivec) registers can be saved away
to somewhere other than the thread_struct when kernel code wants to
use floating point or VMX instructions. This is done by providing a
pointer in the thread_struct to indicate where the state should be
saved to. The giveup_fpu() and giveup_altivec() functions test these
pointers and save state to the indicated location if they are non-NULL.
Note that the MSR_FP/VEC bits in task->thread.regs->msr are still used
to indicate whether the CPU register state is live, even when an
alternate save location is being used.
This also provides load_fp_state() and load_vr_state() functions, which
load up FP/VSX and VMX state from memory into the CPU registers, and
corresponding store_fp_state() and store_vr_state() functions, which
store FP/VSX and VMX state into memory from the CPU registers.

This creates new 'thread_fp_state' and 'thread_vr_state' structures
to store FP/VSX state (including FPSCR) and Altivec/VSX state
(including VSCR), and uses them in the thread_struct. In the
thread_fp_state, the FPRs and VSRs are represented as u64 rather
than double, since we rarely perform floating-point computations
on the values, and this will enable the structures to be used
in KVM code as well. Similarly FPSCR is now a u64 rather than
a structure of two 32-bit values.
This takes the offsets out of the macros such as SAVE_32FPRS,
REST_32FPRS, etc. This enables the same macros to be used for normal
and transactional state, enabling us to delete the transactional
versions of the macros. This also removes the unused do_load_up_fpu
and do_load_up_altivec, which were in fact buggy since they didn't
create large enough stack frames to account for the fact that
load_up_fpu and load_up_altivec are not designed to be called from C
and assume that their caller's stack frame is an interrupt frame.

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

If a transaction is rolled back, the Target Address Register (TAR), Processor
Priority Register (PPR) and Data Stream Control Register (DSCR) should be
restored to the checkpointed values before the transaction began. Any changes
to these SPRs inside the transaction should not be visible in the abort
handler.
Currently Linux doesn't save or restore the checkpointed TAR, PPR or DSCR. If
we preempt a processes inside a transaction which has modified any of these, on
process restore, that same transaction may be aborted we but we won't see the
checkpointed versions of these SPRs.
This adds checkpointed versions of these SPRs to the thread_struct and adds the
save/restore of these three SPRs to the treclaim/trechkpt code.
Without this if any of these SPRs are modified during a transaction, users may
incorrectly see a speculated SPR value even if the transaction is aborted.

At present, the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl doesn't report modifications
done by the host to the virtual processor areas (VPAs) and dispatch
trace logs (DTLs) registered by the guest. This is because those
modifications are done either in real mode or in the host kernel
context, and in neither case does the access go through the guest's
HPT, and thus no change (C) bit gets set in the guest's HPT.
However, the changes done by the host do need to be tracked so that
the modified pages get transferred when doing live migration. In
order to track these modifications, this adds a dirty flag to the
struct representing the VPA/DTL areas, and arranges to set the flag
when the VPA/DTL gets modified by the host. Then, when we are
collecting the dirty log, we also check the dirty flags for the
VPA and DTL for each vcpu and set the relevant bit in the dirty log
if necessary. Doing this also means we now need to keep track of
the guest physical address of the VPA/DTL areas.
So as not to lose track of modifications to a VPA/DTL area when it gets
unregistered, or when a new area gets registered in its place, we need
to transfer the dirty state to the rmap chain. This adds code to
kvmppc_unpin_guest_page() to do that if the area was dirty. To simplify
that code, we now require that all VPA, DTL and SLB shadow buffer areas
fit within a single host page. Guests already comply with this
requirement because pHyp requires that these areas not cross a 4k
boundary.

When we change or remove a HPT (hashed page table) entry, we can do
either a global TLB invalidation (tlbie) that works across the whole
machine, or a local invalidation (tlbiel) that only affects this core.
Currently we do local invalidations if the VM has only one vcpu or if
the guest requests it with the H_LOCAL flag, though the guest Linux
kernel currently doesn't ever use H_LOCAL. Then, to cope with the
possibility that vcpus moving around to different physical cores might
expose stale TLB entries, there is some code in kvmppc_hv_entry to
flush the whole TLB of entries for this VM if either this vcpu is now
running on a different physical core from where it last ran, or if this
physical core last ran a different vcpu.
There are a number of problems on POWER7 with this as it stands:
- The TLB invalidation is done per thread, whereas it only needs to be
done per core, since the TLB is shared between the threads.
- With the possibility of the host paging out guest pages, the use of
H_LOCAL by an SMP guest is dangerous since the guest could possibly
retain and use a stale TLB entry pointing to a page that had been
removed from the guest.
- The TLB invalidations that we do when a vcpu moves from one physical
core to another are unnecessary in the case of an SMP guest that isn't
using H_LOCAL.
- The optimization of using local invalidations rather than global should
apply to guests with one virtual core, not just one vcpu.
(None of this applies on PPC970, since there we always have to
invalidate the whole TLB when entering and leaving the guest, and we
can't support paging out guest memory.)
To fix these problems and simplify the code, we now maintain a simple
cpumask of which cpus need to flush the TLB on entry to the guest.
(This is indexed by cpu, though we only ever use the bits for thread
0 of each core.) Whenever we do a local TLB invalidation, we set the
bits for every cpu except the bit for thread 0 of the core that we're
currently running on. Whenever we enter a guest, we test and clear the
bit for our core, and flush the TLB if it was set.
On initial startup of the VM, and when resetting the HPT, we set all the
bits in the need_tlb_flush cpumask, since any core could potentially have
stale TLB entries from the previous VM to use the same LPID, or the
previous contents of the HPT.
Then, we maintain a count of the number of online virtual cores, and use
that when deciding whether to use a local invalidation rather than the
number of online vcpus. The code to make that decision is extracted out
into a new function, global_invalidates(). For multi-core guests on
POWER7 (i.e. when we are using mmu notifiers), we now never do local
invalidations regardless of the H_LOCAL flag.
