#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE
KVM: PPC: Add support for Book3S processors in hypervisor mode This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors, specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor architecture other than the one that the hardware implements. This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code to include/linux/kvm.h. Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support (i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only do one or the other. This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present. Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious restriction. With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry to those exception handlers. We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage, hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist interrupts, so we have to handle those. In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space. We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it. We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers, so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct. The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition (partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction. This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now, since huge pages can't be paged or swapped. This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_PR_POSSIBLE
KVM: PPC: book3s_pr: Simplify transitions between virtual and real mode This simplifies the way that the book3s_pr makes the transition to real mode when entering the guest. We now call kvmppc_entry_trampoline (renamed from kvmppc_rmcall) in the base kernel using a normal function call instead of doing an indirect call through a pointer in the vcpu. If kvm is a module, the module loader takes care of generating a trampoline as it does for other calls to functions outside the module. kvmppc_entry_trampoline then disables interrupts and jumps to kvmppc_handler_trampoline_enter in real mode using an rfi[d]. That then uses the link register as the address to return to (potentially in module space) when the guest exits. This also simplifies the way that we call the Linux interrupt handler when we exit the guest due to an external, decrementer or performance monitor interrupt. Instead of turning on the MMU, then deciding that we need to call the Linux handler and turning the MMU back off again, we now go straight to the handler at the point where we would turn the MMU on. The handler will then return to the virtual-mode code (potentially in the module). Along the way, this moves the setting and clearing of the HID5 DCBZ32 bit into real-mode interrupts-off code, and also makes sure that we clear the MSR[RI] bit before loading values into SRR0/1. The net result is that we no longer need any code addresses to be stored in vcpu->arch. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
