| * | KVM: PPC: booke: category E.HV (GS-mode) supportScott Wood2012-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Chips such as e500mc that implement category E.HV in Power ISA 2.06 provide hardware virtualization features, including a new MSR mode for guest state. The guest OS can perform many operations without trapping into the hypervisor, including transitions to and from guest userspace. Since we can use SRR1[GS] to reliably tell whether an exception came from guest state, instead of messing around with IVPR, we use DO_KVM similarly to book3s. Current issues include: - Machine checks from guest state are not routed to the host handler. - The guest can cause a host oops by executing an emulated instruction in a page that lacks read permission. Existing e500/4xx support has the same problem. Includes work by Ashish Kalra <Ashish.Kalra@freescale.com>, Varun Sethi <Varun.Sethi@freescale.com>, and Liu Yu <yu.liu@freescale.com>.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DO_KVM will need to identify the particular exception type. There is an existing set of arbitrary numbers that Linux passes, but it's an undocumented mess that sort of corresponds to server/classic exception vectors but not really.

This patch enables the use of generic hardware breakpoint interfaces for these new flags. Apart from the usual benefits of using generic hw-breakpoint interfaces, these changes allow debuggers (such as GDB) to use a common set of ptrace flags for their watchpoint needs and allow more precise breakpoint specification (length of the variable can be specified).

The implementation is similar to that of the PPC440x which is described here : http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/104323/ PPC_47x MMU : The 47x uses Unified TLB 1024 entries, with 4-way associative mapping (4 x 256 entries). The index to be used is calculated by the MMU by hashing the PID, EPN and TS. The software can choose to specify the way by setting bit 0(enable way select) and the way in bits 1-2 in the TLB Word 0. Implementation: The patch erases all the UTLB entries which includes the tlb covering the mapping for our code. The shadow TLB caches the mapping for the running code which helps us to continue the execution until we do isync/rfi. We then create a tmp mapping for the current code in the other address space (TS) and switch to it. Then we create a 1:1 mapping(EPN=RPN) for 0-2GiB in the original address space and switch to the new mapping. TODO: Add SMP support. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K.

Also set the MMUCR[TID] to kernel PID. This was spotted while testing the kexec on ISS for 47x. ISS doesn't return a successful tlbsx for a kernel address with PID set to a user PID. Though the hardware/qemu/simics work fine. This patch is harmless and initializes the PID to 0 (kernel PID) which is usually the case during a normal kernel boot. This would fix the kexec on ISS for 440. I have tested this patch on sequoia board.

Create giveup_altivec_notask which only turns on the VMX bit in the MSR. - We write the VMX MSR bit each time we call enable_kernel_altivec even it was already set. Check the bit and branch out if we have already set it. The classic case for this is vectored IO where we have to copy multiple buffers to or from userspace. The following testcase was used to confirm this patch improves performance: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c Since the current breakpoint for using VMX in copy_tofrom_user is 4096 bytes, I'm using buffers of 4096 + 1 cacheline (4224) bytes.

The changelog says: "The equivalent routine for x86 is in arch/x86/kernel/process.c but the powerpc implementation is different.": Unfortunately the changelog is completely useless as it does not tell _WHY_ it is different. Aside of being different the implementation is patently wrong. The rescheduling IPI is async. That means that there is no guarantee, that the other cores have executed the IPI when cpu_idle_wait() returns. But that's the whole purpose of this function: to guarantee that no CPU uses the old idle handler anymore. Use the smp_functional_call() based implementation, which fulfils the requirements.

This can happen when a perfmon interrupt occurs while soft disabled, as it will return to a soft disabled but hard enabled context while leaving a stale PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS flag set. This patch fixes it, and also adds a test for the condition of those flags being out of sync in arch_local_irq_restore() when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled. This helps catching those gremlins faster (and so far I can't seem see any anymore, so that's good news). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This can in turn cause a BUG_ON() to hit in __check_irq_replay() due to interrupt state getting out of sync. The assembly code was also way too convoluted. Instead, we now leave it to the C code to do the right thing which ends up being smaller and more readable. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated. However, with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger than NR_IRQS. This has caused breakage on powermac when CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32. This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro. The powerpc-specific for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time. Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().
