This reverts commit 94a04bc25a2c6296bd0c5e82c10e8231c2b11f77.
In order to run HPT guests on a radix POWER9 host, we will have to run
the host in single-threaded mode, because POWER9 processors do not
currently support running some threads of a core in HPT mode while
others are in radix mode ("mixed mode").
That means that we will need the same mechanisms that are used on
POWER8 to make the secondary threads available to KVM, which were
disabled on POWER9 by commit 94a04bc25a2c.

On POWER9 systems, we push the VCPU context onto the XIVE (eXternal
Interrupt Virtualization Engine) hardware when entering a guest,
and pull the context off the XIVE when exiting the guest. The push
is done with cache-inhibited stores, and the pull with cache-inhibited
loads.
Testing has revealed that it is possible (though very rare) for
the stores to get reordered with the loads so that we end up with the
guest VCPU context still loaded on the XIVE after we have exited the
guest. When that happens, it is possible for the same VCPU context
to then get loaded on another CPU, which causes the machine to
checkstop.
To fix this, we add I/O barrier instructions (eieio) before and
after the push and pull operations. As partial compensation for the
potential slowdown caused by the extra barriers, we remove the eieio
instructions between the two stores in the push operation, and between
the two loads in the pull operation. (The architecture requires
loads to cache-inhibited, guarded storage to be kept in order, and
requires stores to cache-inhibited, guarded storage likewise to be
kept in order, but allows such loads and stores to be reordered with
respect to each other.)

At present, if an interrupt (i.e. an exception or trap) occurs in the
code where KVM is switching the MMU to or from guest context, we jump
to kvmppc_bad_host_intr, where we simply spin with interrupts disabled.
In this situation, it is hard to debug what happened because we get no
indication as to which interrupt occurred or where. Typically we get
a cascade of stall and soft lockup warnings from other CPUs.
In order to get more information for debugging, this adds code to
create a stack frame on the emergency stack and save register values
to it. We start half-way down the emergency stack in order to give
ourselves some chance of being able to do a stack trace on secondary
threads that are already on the emergency stack.
On POWER7 or POWER8, we then just spin, as before, because we don't
know what state the MMU context is in or what other threads are doing,
and we can't switch back to host context without coordinating with
other threads. On POWER9 we can do better; there we load up the host
MMU context and jump to C code, which prints an oops message to the
console and panics.

- Add another case where msgsync is required.
- Required barrier sequence for global doorbells is msgsync ; lwsync
When msgsnd is used for IPIs to other cores, msgsync must be executed by
the target to order stores performed on the source before its msgsnd
(provided the source executes the appropriate sync).

On POWER9 DD2.1 and below, sometimes on a Hypervisor Data Storage
Interrupt (HDSI) the HDSISR is not be updated at all.
To work around this we put a canary value into the HDSISR before
returning to a guest and then check for this canary when we take a
HDSI. If we find the canary on a HDSI, we know the hardware didn't
update the HDSISR. In this case we return to the guest to retake the
HDSI which should correctly update the HDSISR the second time HDSI
entry.
After talking to Paulus we've applied this workaround to all POWER9
CPUs. The workaround of returning to the guest shouldn't ever be
triggered on well behaving CPU. The extra instructions should have
negligible performance impact.

It turns out that what has happened is that the SLB entry for the
vmmemap region hasn't been reloaded on exit from a guest, and it has
the wrong page size. Then, when the host next accesses the vmemmap
region, it gets a page fault.
Commit a25bd72badfa ("powerpc/mm/radix: Workaround prefetch issue with
KVM", 2017-07-24) modified the guest exit code so that it now only clears
out the SLB for hash guest. The code tests the radix flag and puts the
result in a non-volatile CR field, CR2, and later branches based on CR2.
Unfortunately, the kvmppc_save_tm function, which gets called between
those two points, modifies all the user-visible registers in the case
where the guest was in transactional or suspended state, except for a
few which it restores (namely r1, r2, r9 and r13). Thus the hash/radix indication in CR2 gets corrupted.
This fixes the problem by re-doing the comparison just before the
result is needed. For good measure, this also adds comments next to
the call sites of kvmppc_save_tm and kvmppc_restore_tm pointing out
that non-volatile register state will be lost.

Commit 2f2724630f7a ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Cope with host using large
decrementer mode", 2017-05-22) added code to treat the hypervisor
decrementer (HDEC) as a 64-bit value on POWER9 rather than 32-bit.
Unfortunately, that commit missed one place where HDEC is treated
as a 32-bit value. This fixes it.
This bug should not have any user-visible consequences that I can
think of, beyond an occasional unnecessary exit to the host kernel.
If the hypervisor decrementer has gone negative, then the bottom
32 bits will be negative for about 4 seconds after that, so as
long as we get out of the guest within those 4 seconds we won't
conclude that the HDEC interrupt is spurious.

POWER9 CPUs have independent MMU contexts per thread, so KVM does not
need to quiesce secondary threads, so the hwthread_req/hwthread_state
protocol does not have to be used. So patch it away on POWER9, and patch
away the branch from the Linux idle wakeup to kvm_start_guest that is
never used.
Add a warning and error out of kvmppc_grab_hwthread in case it is ever
called on POWER9.
This avoids a hwsync in the idle wakeup path on POWER9.

There's a somewhat architectural issue with Radix MMU and KVM.
When coming out of a guest with AIL (Alternate Interrupt Location, ie,
MMU enabled), we start executing hypervisor code with the PID register
still containing whatever the guest has been using.
The problem is that the CPU can (and will) then start prefetching or
speculatively load from whatever host context has that same PID (if
any), thus bringing translations for that context into the TLB, which
Linux doesn't know about.
This can cause stale translations and subsequent crashes.
Fixing this in a way that is neither racy nor a huge performance
impact is difficult. We could just make the host invalidations always
use broadcast forms but that would hurt single threaded programs for
example.
We chose to fix it instead by partitioning the PID space between guest
and host. This is possible because today Linux only use 19 out of the
20 bits of PID space, so existing guests will work if we make the host
use the top half of the 20 bits space.
We additionally add support for a property to indicate to Linux the
size of the PID register which will be useful if we eventually have
processors with a larger PID space available.
There is still an issue with malicious guests purposefully setting the
PID register to a value in the hosts PID range. Hopefully future HW
can prevent that, but in the meantime, we handle it with a pair of
kludges:
- On the way out of a guest, before we clear the current VCPU in the
PACA, we check the PID and if it's outside of the permitted range
we flush the TLB for that PID.
- When context switching, if the mm is "new" on that CPU (the
corresponding bit was set for the first time in the mm cpumask), we
check if any sibling thread is in KVM (has a non-NULL VCPU pointer
in the PACA). If that is the case, we also flush the PID for that
CPU (core).
This second part is needed to handle the case where a process is
migrated (or starts a new pthread) on a sibling thread of the CPU
coming out of KVM, as there's a window where stale translations can
exist before we detect it and flush them out.
A future optimization could be added by keeping track of whether the
PID has ever been used and avoid doing that for completely fresh PIDs.
We could similarily mark PIDs that have been the subject of a global
invalidation as "fresh". But for now this will do.

At present, interrupts are hard-disabled fairly late in the guest
entry path, in the assembly code. Since we check for pending signals
for the vCPU(s) task(s) earlier in the guest entry path, it is
possible for a signal to be delivered before we enter the guest but
not be noticed until after we exit the guest for some other reason.
Similarly, it is possible for the scheduler to request a reschedule
while we are in the guest entry path, and we won't notice until after
we have run the guest, potentially for a whole timeslice.
Furthermore, with a radix guest on POWER9, we can take the interrupt
with the MMU on. In this case we end up leaving interrupts
hard-disabled after the guest exit, and they are likely to stay
hard-disabled until we exit to userspace or context-switch to
another process. This was masking the fact that we were also not
setting the RI (recoverable interrupt) bit in the MSR, meaning
that if we had taken an interrupt, it would have crashed the host
kernel with an unrecoverable interrupt message.
To close these races, we need to check for signals and reschedule
requests after hard-disabling interrupts, and then keep interrupts
hard-disabled until we enter the guest. If there is a signal or a
reschedule request from another CPU, it will send an IPI, which will
cause a guest exit.
This puts the interrupt disabling before we call kvmppc_start_thread()
for all the secondary threads of this core that are going to run vCPUs.
The reason for that is that once we have started the secondary threads
there is no easy way to back out without going through at least part
of the guest entry path. However, kvmppc_start_thread() includes some
code for radix guests which needs to call smp_call_function(), which
must be called with interrupts enabled. To solve this problem, this
patch moves that code into a separate function that is called earlier.
When the guest exit is caused by an external interrupt, a hypervisor
doorbell or a hypervisor maintenance interrupt, we now handle these
using the replay facility. __kvmppc_vcore_entry() now returns the
trap number that caused the exit on this thread, and instead of the
assembly code jumping to the handler entry, we return to C code with
interrupts still hard-disabled and set the irq_happened flag in the
PACA, so that when we do local_irq_enable() the appropriate handler
gets called.
With all this, we now have the interrupt soft-enable flag clear while
we are in the guest. This is useful because code in the real-mode
hypercall handlers that checks whether interrupts are enabled will
now see that they are disabled, which is correct, since interrupts
are hard-disabled in the real-mode code.

Enhance KVM to cause a guest exit with KVM_EXIT_NMI
exit reason upon a machine check exception (MCE) in
the guest address space if the KVM_CAP_PPC_FWNMI
capability is enabled (instead of delivering a 0x200
interrupt to guest). This enables QEMU to build error
log and deliver machine check exception to guest via
guest registered machine check handler.
This approach simplifies the delivery of machine
check exception to guest OS compared to the earlier
approach of KVM directly invoking 0x200 guest interrupt
vector.
This design/approach is based on the feedback for the
QEMU patches to handle machine check exception. Details
of earlier approach of handling machine check exception
in QEMU and related discussions can be found at:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-11/msg00813.html
Note:
This patch now directly invokes machine_check_print_event_info()
from kvmppc_handle_exit_hv() to print the event to host console
at the time of guest exit before the exception is passed on to the
guest. Hence, the host-side handling which was performed earlier
via machine_check_fwnmi is removed.
The reasons for this approach is (i) it is not possible
to distinguish whether the exception occurred in the
guest or the host from the pt_regs passed on the
machine_check_exception(). Hence machine_check_exception()
calls panic, instead of passing on the exception to
the guest, if the machine check exception is not
recoverable. (ii) the approach introduced in this
patch gives opportunity to the host kernel to perform
actions in virtual mode before passing on the exception
to the guest. This approach does not require complex
tweaks to machine_check_fwnmi and friends.

Idle code now always runs at the 0xc... effective address whether
in real or virtual mode. This means rfid can be ditched, along
with a lot of SRR manipulations.
In the wakeup path, carry SRR1 around in r12. Use mtmsrd to change
MSR states as required.
This also balances the return prediction for the idle call, by
doing blr rather than rfid to return to the idle caller.

On POWER9, we no longer have the restriction that we had on POWER8
where all threads in a core have to be in the same partition, so
the CPU threads are now independent. However, we still want to be
able to run guests with a virtual SMT topology, if only to allow
migration of guests from POWER8 systems to POWER9.
A guest that has a virtual SMT mode greater than 1 will expect to
be able to use the doorbell facility; it will expect the msgsndp
and msgclrp instructions to work appropriately and to be able to read
sensible values from the TIR (thread identification register) and
DPDES (directed privileged doorbell exception status) special-purpose
registers. However, since each CPU thread is a separate sub-processor
in POWER9, these instructions and registers can only be used within
a single CPU thread.
In order for these instructions to appear to act correctly according
to the guest's virtual SMT mode, we have to trap and emulate them.
We cause them to trap by clearing the HFSCR_MSGP bit in the HFSCR
register. The emulation is triggered by the hypervisor facility
unavailable interrupt that occurs when the guest uses them.
To cause a doorbell interrupt to occur within the guest, we set the
DPDES register to 1. If the guest has interrupts enabled, the CPU
will generate a doorbell interrupt and clear the DPDES register in
hardware. The DPDES hardware register for the guest is saved in the
vcpu->arch.vcore->dpdes field. Since this gets written by the guest
exit code, other VCPUs wishing to cause a doorbell interrupt don't
write that field directly, but instead set a vcpu->arch.doorbell_request
flag. This is consumed and set to 0 by the guest entry code, which
then sets DPDES to 1.
Emulating reads of the DPDES register is somewhat involved, because
it requires reading the doorbell pending interrupt status of all of the
VCPU threads in the virtual core, and if any of those VCPUs are
running, their doorbell status is only up-to-date in the hardware
DPDES registers of the CPUs where they are running. In order to get
a reasonable approximation of the current doorbell status, we send
those CPUs an IPI, causing an exit from the guest which will update
the vcpu->arch.vcore->dpdes field. We then use that value in
constructing the emulated DPDES register value.

This adds code to allow us to use a different value for the HFSCR
(Hypervisor Facilities Status and Control Register) when running the
guest from that which applies in the host. The reason for doing this
is to allow us to trap the msgsndp instruction and related operations
in future so that they can be virtualized. We also save the value of
HFSCR when a hypervisor facility unavailable interrupt occurs, because
the high byte of HFSCR indicates which facility the guest attempted to
access.
We save and restore the host value on guest entry/exit because some
bits of it affect host userspace execution.
We only do all this on POWER9, not on POWER8, because we are not
intending to virtualize any of the facilities controlled by HFSCR on
POWER8. In particular, the HFSCR bit that controls execution of
msgsndp and related operations does not exist on POWER8. The HFSCR
doesn't exist at all on POWER7.

This allows userspace (e.g. QEMU) to enable large decrementer mode for
the guest when running on a POWER9 host, by setting the LPCR_LD bit in
the guest LPCR value. With this, the guest exit code saves 64 bits of
the guest DEC value on exit. Other places that use the guest DEC
value check the LPCR_LD bit in the guest LPCR value, and if it is set,
omit the 32-bit sign extension that would otherwise be done.
This doesn't change the DEC emulation used by PR KVM because PR KVM
is not supported on POWER9 yet.
This is partly based on an earlier patch by Oliver O'Halloran.

At present, HV KVM on POWER8 and POWER9 machines loses any instruction
or data breakpoint set in the host whenever a guest is run.
Instruction breakpoints are currently only used by xmon, but ptrace
and the perf_event subsystem can set data breakpoints as well as xmon.
To fix this, we save the host values of the debug registers (CIABR,
DAWR and DAWRX) before entering the guest and restore them on exit.
To provide space to save them in the stack frame, we expand the stack
frame allocated by kvmppc_hv_entry() from 112 to 144 bytes.

This restores several special-purpose registers (SPRs) to sane values
on guest exit that were missed before.
TAR and VRSAVE are readable and writable by userspace, and we need to
save and restore them to prevent the guest from potentially affecting
userspace execution (not that TAR or VRSAVE are used by any known
program that run uses the KVM_RUN ioctl). We save/restore these
in kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv() rather than on every guest entry/exit.
FSCR affects userspace execution in that it can prohibit access to
certain facilities by userspace. We restore it to the normal value
for the task on exit from the KVM_RUN ioctl.
IAMR is normally 0, and is restored to 0 on guest exit. However,
with a radix host on POWER9, it is set to a value that prevents the
kernel from executing user-accessible memory. On POWER9, we save
IAMR on guest entry and restore it on guest exit to the saved value
rather than 0. On POWER8 we continue to set it to 0 on guest exit.
PSPB is normally 0. We restore it to 0 on guest exit to prevent
userspace taking advantage of the guest having set it non-zero
(which would allow userspace to set its SMT priority to high).
UAMOR is normally 0. We restore it to 0 on guest exit to prevent
the AMR from being used as a covert channel between userspace
processes, since the AMR is not context-switched at present.

POWER9 introduces a new mode for the decrementer register, called
large decrementer mode, in which the decrementer counter is 56 bits
wide rather than 32, and reads are sign-extended rather than
zero-extended. For the decrementer, this new mode is optional and
controlled by a bit in the LPCR. The hypervisor decrementer (HDEC)
is 56 bits wide on POWER9 and has no mode control.
Since KVM code reads and writes the decrementer and hypervisor
decrementer registers in a few places, it needs to be aware of the
need to treat the decrementer value as a 64-bit quantity, and only do
a 32-bit sign extension when large decrementer mode is not in effect.
Similarly, the HDEC should always be treated as a 64-bit quantity on
POWER9. We define a new EXTEND_HDEC macro to encapsulate the feature
test for POWER9 and the sign extension.
To enable the sign extension to be removed in large decrementer mode,
we test the LPCR_LD bit in the host LPCR image stored in the struct
kvm for the guest. If is set then large decrementer mode is enabled
and the sign extension should be skipped.
This is partly based on an earlier patch by Oliver O'Halloran.

In HPT mode on POWER9, the ASDR register is supposed to record
segment information for hypervisor page faults. It turns out that
POWER9 DD1 does not record the page size information in the ASDR
for faults in guest real mode. We have the necessary information
in memory already, so by moving the checks for real mode that already
existed, we can use the in-memory copy. Since a load is likely to
be faster than reading an SPR, we do this unconditionally (not just

If we allow LPCR[AIL] to be set for radix guests, then interrupts from
the guest to the host can be delivered by the hardware with relocation
on, and thus the code path starting at kvmppc_interrupt_hv can be
executed in virtual mode (MMU on) for radix guests (previously it was
only ever executed in real mode).
Most of the code is indifferent to whether the MMU is on or off, but
the calls to OPAL that use the real-mode OPAL entry code need to
be switched to use the virtual-mode code instead. The affected
calls are the calls to the OPAL XICS emulation functions in
kvmppc_read_one_intr() and related functions. We test the MSR[IR]
bit to detect whether we are in real or virtual mode, and call the
opal_rm_* or opal_* function as appropriate.
The other place that depends on the MMU being off is the optimization
where the guest exit code jumps to the external interrupt vector or
hypervisor doorbell interrupt vector, or returns to its caller (which
is __kvmppc_vcore_entry). If the MMU is on and we are returning to
the caller, then we don't need to use an rfid instruction since the
MMU is already on; a simple blr suffices. If there is an external
or hypervisor doorbell interrupt to handle, we branch to the
relocation-on version of the interrupt vector.

With radix, the guest can do TLB invalidations itself using the tlbie
(global) and tlbiel (local) TLB invalidation instructions. Linux guests
use local TLB invalidations for translations that have only ever been
accessed on one vcpu. However, that doesn't mean that the translations
have only been accessed on one physical cpu (pcpu) since vcpus can move
around from one pcpu to another. Thus a tlbiel might leave behind stale
TLB entries on a pcpu where the vcpu previously ran, and if that task
then moves back to that previous pcpu, it could see those stale TLB
entries and thus access memory incorrectly. The usual symptom of this
is random segfaults in userspace programs in the guest.
To cope with this, we detect when a vcpu is about to start executing on
a thread in a core that is a different core from the last time it
executed. If that is the case, then we mark the core as needing a
TLB flush and then send an interrupt to any thread in the core that is
currently running a vcpu from the same guest. This will get those vcpus
out of the guest, and the first one to re-enter the guest will do the
TLB flush. The reason for interrupting the vcpus executing on the old
core is to cope with the following scenario:
CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 4
(core 0) (core 0) (core 1)
VCPU 0 runs task X VCPU 1 runs
core 0 TLB gets
entries from task X
VCPU 0 moves to CPU 4
VCPU 0 runs task X
Unmap pages of task X
tlbiel
(still VCPU 1) task X moves to VCPU 1
task X runs
task X sees stale TLB
entries
That is, as soon as the VCPU starts executing on the new core, it
could unmap and tlbiel some page table entries, and then the task
could migrate to one of the VCPUs running on the old core and
potentially see stale TLB entries.
Since the TLB is shared between all the threads in a core, we only
use the bit of kvm->arch.need_tlb_flush corresponding to the first
thread in the core. To ensure that we don't have a window where we
can miss a flush, this moves the clearing of the bit from before the
actual flush to after it. This way, two threads might both do the
flush, but we prevent the situation where one thread can enter the
guest before the flush is finished.

being accessed, assuming the guest is using HPT translation.

64-bit Book3S exception handlers must find the dynamic kernel base

Support this in KVM by branching with CTR, similarly to regular

POWER9 replaces the various power-saving mode instructions on POWER8
(doze, nap, sleep and rvwinkle) with a single "stop" instruction, plus
a register, PSSCR, which controls the depth of the power-saving mode.
This replaces the use of the nap instruction when threads are idle
during guest execution with the stop instruction, and adds code to
set PSSCR to a value which will allow an SMT mode switch while the
thread is idle (given that the core as a whole won't be idle in these
cases).

POWER9 adds new capabilities to the tlbie (TLB invalidate entry)
and tlbiel (local tlbie) instructions. Both instructions get a
set of new parameters (RIC, PRS and R) which appear as bits in the
instruction word. The tlbiel instruction now has a second register
operand, which contains a PID and/or LPID value if needed, and
should otherwise contain 0.
This adapts KVM-HV's usage of tlbie and tlbiel to work on POWER9
as well as older processors. Since we only handle HPT guests so
far, we need RIC=0 PRS=0 R=0, which ends up with the same instruction
word as on previous processors, so we don't need to conditionally
execute different instructions depending on the processor.
The local flush on first entry to a guest in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S
is a loop which depends on the number of TLB sets. Rather than
using feature sections to set the number of iterations based on
which CPU we're on, we now work out this number at VM creation time
and store it in the kvm_arch struct. That will make it possible to
get the number from the device tree in future, which will help with
compatibility with future processors.
Since mmu_partition_table_set_entry() does a global flush of the
whole LPID, we don't need to do the TLB flush on first entry to the
guest on each processor. Therefore we don't set all bits in the
tlb_need_flush bitmap on VM startup on POWER9.

On POWER9, the SDR1 register (hashed page table base address) is no
longer used, and instead the hardware reads the HPT base address
and size from the partition table. The partition table entry also
contains the bits that specify the page size for the VRMA mapping,
which were previously in the LPCR. The VPM0 bit of the LPCR is
now reserved; the processor now always uses the VRMA (virtual
real-mode area) mechanism for guest real-mode accesses in HPT mode,
and the RMO (real-mode offset) mechanism has been dropped.
When entering or exiting the guest, we now only have to set the
LPIDR (logical partition ID register), not the SDR1 register.
There is also no requirement now to transition via a reserved
LPID value.

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

POWER8 has one virtual timebase (VTB) register per subcore, not one
per CPU thread. The HV KVM code currently treats VTB as a per-thread
register, which can lead to spurious soft lockup messages from guests
which use the VTB as the time source for the soft lockup detector.
(CPUs before POWER8 did not have the VTB register.)
For HV KVM, this fixes the problem by making only the primary thread
in each virtual core save and restore the VTB value. With this,
the VTB state becomes part of the kvmppc_vcore structure. This
also means that "piggybacking" of multiple virtual cores onto one
subcore is not possible on POWER8, because then the virtual cores
would share a single VTB register.
PR KVM emulates a VTB register, which is per-vcpu because PR KVM
has no notion of CPU threads or SMT. For PR KVM we move the VTB
state into the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct.

In existing real mode ICP code, when updating the virtual ICP
state, if there is a required action that cannot be completely
handled in real mode, as for instance, a VCPU needs to be woken
up, flags are set in the ICP to indicate the required action.
This is checked when returning from hypercalls to decide whether
the call needs switch back to the host where the action can be
performed in virtual mode. Note that if h_ipi_redirect is enabled,
real mode code will first try to message a free host CPU to
complete this job instead of returning the host to do it ourselves.
Currently, the real mode PCI passthrough interrupt handling code
checks if any of these flags are set and simply returns to the host.
This is not good enough as the trap value (0x500) is treated as an
external interrupt by the host code. It is only when the trap value
is a hypercall that the host code searches for and acts on unfinished
work by calling kvmppc_xics_rm_complete.
This patch introduces a special trap BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_HV_RM_HARD
which is returned by KVM if there is unfinished business to be
completed in host virtual mode after handling a PCI passthrough
interrupt. The host checks for this special interrupt condition
and calls into the kvmppc_xics_rm_complete, which is made an
exported function for this reason.

Currently, KVM switches back to the host to handle any external
interrupt (when the interrupt is received while running in the
guest). This patch updates real-mode KVM to check if an interrupt
is generated by a passthrough adapter that is owned by this guest.
If so, the real mode KVM will directly inject the corresponding
virtual interrupt to the guest VCPU's ICS and also EOI the interrupt
in hardware. In short, the interrupt is handled entirely in real
mode in the guest context without switching back to the host.
In some rare cases, the interrupt cannot be completely handled in
real mode, for instance, a VCPU that is sleeping needs to be woken
up. In this case, KVM simply switches back to the host with trap
reason set to 0x500. This works, but it is clearly not very efficient.
A following patch will distinguish this case and handle it
correctly in the host. Note that we can use the existing
check_too_hard() routine even though we are not in a hypercall to
determine if there is unfinished business that needs to be
completed in host virtual mode.
The patch assumes that the mapping between hardware interrupt IRQ
and virtual IRQ to be injected to the guest already exists for the
PCI passthrough interrupts that need to be handled in real mode.
If the mapping does not exist, KVM falls back to the default
existing behavior.
The KVM real mode code reads mappings from the mapped array in the
passthrough IRQ map without taking any lock. We carefully order the
loads and stores of the fields in the kvmppc_irq_map data structure
using memory barriers to avoid an inconsistent mapping being seen by
the reader. Thus, although it is possible to miss a map entry, it is
not possible to read a stale value.

Modify kvmppc_read_intr to make it a C function. Because it is called
from kvmppc_check_wake_reason, any of the assembler code that calls

This also adds in the optimization of clearing saved_xirr in the case

It turns out that if the guest does a H_CEDE while the CPU is in
a transactional state, and the H_CEDE does a nap, and the nap
loses the architected state of the CPU (which is is allowed to do),
then we lose the checkpointed state of the virtual CPU. In addition,
the transactional-memory state recorded in the MSR gets reset back
to non-transactional, and when we try to return to the guest, we take
a TM bad thing type of program interrupt because we are trying to
transition from non-transactional to transactional with a hrfid
instruction, which is not permitted.
The result of the program interrupt occurring at that point is that
the host CPU will hang in an infinite loop with interrupts disabled.
Thus this is a denial of service vulnerability in the host which can
be triggered by any guest (and depending on the guest kernel, it can
potentially triggered by unprivileged userspace in the guest).
This vulnerability has been assigned the ID CVE-2016-5412.
To fix this, we save the TM state before napping and restore it
on exit from the nap, when handling a H_CEDE in real mode. The
case where H_CEDE exits to host virtual mode is already OK (as are
other hcalls which exit to host virtual mode) because the exit
path saves the TM state.

When a guest is assigned to a core it converts the host Timebase (TB)
into guest TB by adding guest timebase offset before entering into
guest. During guest exit it restores the guest TB to host TB. This means
under certain conditions (Guest migration) host TB and guest TB can differ.
When we get an HMI for TB related issues the opal HMI handler would
try fixing errors and restore the correct host TB value. With no guest
running, we don't have any issues. But with guest running on the core
we run into TB corruption issues.
If we get an HMI while in the guest, the current HMI handler invokes opal
hmi handler before forcing guest to exit. The guest exit path subtracts
the guest TB offset from the current TB value which may have already
been restored with host value by opal hmi handler. This leads to incorrect
host and guest TB values.
With split-core, things become more complex. With split-core, TB also gets
split and each subcore gets its own TB register. When a hmi handler fixes
a TB error and restores the TB value, it affects all the TB values of
sibling subcores on the same core. On TB errors all the thread in the core
gets HMI. With existing code, the individual threads call opal hmi handle
independently which can easily throw TB out of sync if we have guest
running on subcores. Hence we will need to co-ordinate with all the
threads before making opal hmi handler call followed by TB resync.
This patch introduces a sibling subcore state structure (shared by all
threads in the core) in paca which holds information about whether sibling
subcores are in Guest mode or host mode. An array in_guest[] of size
MAX_SUBCORE_PER_CORE=4 is used to maintain the state of each subcore.
The subcore id is used as index into in_guest[] array. Only primary
thread entering/exiting the guest is responsible to set/unset its
designated array element.
On TB error, we get HMI interrupt on every thread on the core. Upon HMI,
this patch will now force guest to vacate the core/subcore. Primary
thread from each subcore will then turn off its respective bit
from the above bitmap during the guest exit path just after the
guest->host partition switch is complete.
All other threads that have just exited the guest OR were already in host
will wait until all other subcores clears their respective bit.
Once all the subcores turn off their respective bit, all threads will
will make call to opal hmi handler.
It is not necessary that opal hmi handler would resync the TB value for
every HMI interrupts. It would do so only for the HMI caused due to
TB errors. For rest, it would not touch TB value. Hence to make things
simpler, primary thread would call TB resync explicitly once for each
core immediately after opal hmi handler instead of subtracting guest
offset from TB. TB resync call will restore the TB with host value.
Thus we can be sure about the TB state.
One of the primary threads exiting the guest will take up the
responsibility of calling TB resync. It will use one of the top bits
(bit 63) from subcore state flags bitmap to make the decision. The first
primary thread (among the subcores) that is able to set the bit will
have to call the TB resync. Rest all other threads will wait until TB
resync is complete. Once TB resync is complete all threads will then
proceed.

Upcoming in-kernel VFIO acceleration needs different handling in real
and virtual modes which makes it hard to support both modes in
the same handler.
This creates a copy of kvmppc_rm_h_stuff_tce and kvmppc_rm_h_put_tce
in addition to the existing kvmppc_rm_h_put_tce_indirect.
This also fixes linker breakage when only PR KVM was selected (leaving
HV KVM off): the kvmppc_h_put_tce/kvmppc_h_stuff_tce functions
would not compile at all and the linked would fail.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"One of the largest releases for KVM... Hardly any generic
changes, but lots of architecture-specific updates.
ARM:
- VHE support so that we can run the kernel at EL2 on ARMv8.1 systems
- PMU support for guests
- 32bit world switch rewritten in C
- various optimizations to the vgic save/restore code.
PPC:
- enabled KVM-VFIO integration ("VFIO device")
- optimizations to speed up IPIs between vcpus
- in-kernel handling of IOMMU hypercalls
- support for dynamic DMA windows (DDW).
s390:
- provide the floating point registers via sync regs;
- separated instruction vs. data accesses
- dirty log improvements for huge guests
- bugfixes and documentation improvements.
x86:
- Hyper-V VMBus hypercall userspace exit
- alternative implementation of lowest-priority interrupts using
vector hashing (for better VT-d posted interrupt support)
- fixed guest debugging with nested virtualizations
- improved interrupt tracking in the in-kernel IOAPIC
- generic infrastructure for tracking writes to guest
memory - currently its only use is to speedup the legacy shadow
paging (pre-EPT) case, but in the future it will be used for
virtual GPUs as well
- much cleanup (LAPIC, kvmclock, MMU, PIT), including ubsan fixes"
