Cédric Le Goater eac1e731b5 powerpc/xive: guest exploitation of the XIVE interrupt controller
This is the framework for using XIVE in a PowerVM guest. The support
is very similar to the native one in a much simpler form.

Each source is associated with an Event State Buffer (ESB). This is a
two bit state machine which is used to trigger events. The bits are
named "P" (pending) and "Q" (queued) and can be controlled by MMIO.
The Guest OS registers event (or notifications) queues on which the HW
will post event data for a target to notify.

Instead of OPAL calls, a set of Hypervisors call are used to configure
the interrupt sources and the event/notification queues of the guest:

 - H_INT_GET_SOURCE_INFO

   used to obtain the address of the MMIO page of the Event State
   Buffer (PQ bits) entry associated with the source.

 - H_INT_SET_SOURCE_CONFIG

   assigns a source to a "target".

 - H_INT_GET_SOURCE_CONFIG

   determines to which "target" and "priority" is assigned to a source

 - H_INT_GET_QUEUE_INFO

   returns the address of the notification management page associated
   with the specified "target" and "priority".

 - H_INT_SET_QUEUE_CONFIG

   sets or resets the event queue for a given "target" and "priority".
   It is also used to set the notification config associated with the
   queue, only unconditional notification for the moment.  Reset is
   performed with a queue size of 0 and queueing is disabled in that
   case.

 - H_INT_GET_QUEUE_CONFIG

   returns the queue settings for a given "target" and "priority".

 - H_INT_RESET

   resets all of the partition's interrupt exploitation structures to
   their initial state, losing all configuration set via the hcalls
   H_INT_SET_SOURCE_CONFIG and H_INT_SET_QUEUE_CONFIG.

 - H_INT_SYNC

   issue a synchronisation on a source to make sure sure all
   notifications have reached their queue.

As for XICS, the XIVE interface for the guest is described in the
device tree under the "interrupt-controller" node. A couple of new
properties are specific to XIVE :

 - "reg"

   contains the base address and size of the thread interrupt
   managnement areas (TIMA), also called rings, for the User level and
   for the Guest OS level. Only the Guest OS level is taken into
   account today.

 - "ibm,xive-eq-sizes"

   the size of the event queues. One cell per size supported, contains
   log2 of size, in ascending order.

 - "ibm,xive-lisn-ranges"

   the interrupt numbers ranges assigned to the guest. These are
   allocated using a simple bitmap.

and also :

 - "/ibm,plat-res-int-priorities"

   contains a list of priorities that the hypervisor has reserved for
   its own use.

Tested with a QEMU XIVE model for pseries and with the Power hypervisor.

Enabling this option will make the kernel run more efficiently
on logically-partitioned pSeries systems which use shared
processors, that is, which share physical processors between
two or more partitions.

SPLPAR machines can log hypervisor preempt & dispatch events to a
kernel buffer. Saying Y here will enable logging these events,
which are accessible through a debugfs file.
Say N if you are unsure.

help
Select this option, if you want to enable support for IO Event
interrupts. IO event interrupt is a mechanism provided by RTAS
to return information about hardware error and non-error events
which may need OS attention. RTAS returns events for multiple
event types and scopes. Device drivers can register their handlers
to receive events.
This option will only enable the IO event platform code. You
will still need to enable or compile the actual drivers
that use this infrastructure to handle IO event interrupts.
Say Y if you are unsure.

Say Y here if you want the pseries core to produce a bunch of

problem with the pseries core and want to see more of what is
going on. This does not enable debugging in lpar.c, which must

Select this option to enable shared memory partition support.
With this option a system running in an LPAR can be given more
memory than physically available and will allow firmware to
balance memory across many LPARs.
config CMM
tristate "Collaborative memory management"
depends on PPC_SMLPAR
default y
help
Select this option, if you want to enable the kernel interface
to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
makes sense for a system running in an LPAR where the unused pages
will be reused for other LPARs. The interface allows firmware to
balance memory across many LPARs.

Enable access to hypervisor supplied counters in perf. Currently,
this enables code that uses the hcall GetPerfCounterInfo and 24x7
interfaces to retrieve counters. GPCI exists on Power 6 and later
