Liu Yu-B13201 befdc0a65a KVM: PPC: Avoid patching paravirt template code
Currently we patch the whole code include paravirt template code.
This isn't safe for scratch area and has impact to performance.

Scott Wood b59049720d KVM: PPC: Paravirtualize SPRG4-7, ESR, PIR, MASn
This allows additional registers to be accessed by the guest
in PR-mode KVM without trapping.

SPRG4-7 are readable from userspace.  On booke, KVM will sync
these registers when it enters the guest, so that accesses from
guest userspace will work.  The guest kernel, OTOH, must consistently
use either the real registers or the shared area between exits.  This
also applies to the already-paravirted SPRG3.

On non-booke, it's not clear to what extent SPRG4-7 are supported
(they're not architected for book3s, but exist on at least some classic
chips).  They are copied in the get/set regs ioctls, but I do not see any
non-booke emulation.  I also do not see any syncing with real registers
(in PR-mode) including the user-readable SPRG3.  This patch should not
make that situation any worse.

Anton Blanchard d715e433b7 powerpc: Copy down exception vectors after feature fixups
kdump fails because we try to execute an HV only instruction. Feature
fixups are being applied after we copy the exception vectors down to 0
so they miss out on any updates.

We have always had this issue but it only became critical in v3.0
when we added CFAR support (breaks POWER5) and v3.1 when we added
POWERNV (breaks everyone).

Paul Gortmaker 66b15db69c powerpc: add export.h to files making use of EXPORT_SYMBOL
With module.h being implicitly everywhere via device.h, the absence
of explicitly including something for EXPORT_SYMBOL went unnoticed.
Since we are heading to fix things up and clean module.h from the
device.h file, we need to explicitly include these files now.

Alexander Graf 591bd8e7b4 KVM: PPC: Enable napping only for Book3s_64
Before I incorrectly enabled napping also for BookE, which would result in
needless dcache flushes. Since we only need to force enable napping on
Book3s_64 because it doesn't go into MSR_POW otherwise, we can just #ifdef
that code to this particular platform.

Alexander Graf ad0873763a KVM: PPC: Force enable nap on KVM
There are some heuristics in the PPC power management code that try to find
out if the particular hardware we're running on supports proper power management
or just hangs the machine when going into nap mode.

Since we know that KVM is safe with nap, let's force enable it in the PV code
once we're certain that we are on a KVM VM.

Alexander Graf 512ba59ed9 KVM: PPC: Make PV mtmsr work with r30 and r31
So far we've been restricting ourselves to r0-r29 as registers an mtmsr
instruction could use. This was bad, as there are some code paths in
Linux actually using r30.

So let's instead handle all registers gracefully and get rid of that
stupid limitation

Alexander Graf cbe487fac7 KVM: PPC: Add mtsrin PV code
This is the guest side of the mtsr acceleration. Using this a guest can now
call mtsrin with almost no overhead as long as it ensures that it only uses
it with (MSR_IR|MSR_DR) == 0. Linux does that, so we're good.

Alexander Graf 7508e16c9f KVM: PPC: Add feature bitmap for magic page
We will soon add SR PV support to the shared page, so we need some
infrastructure that allows the guest to query for features KVM exports.

This patch adds a second return value to the magic mapping that
indicated to the guest which features are available.

On BookE the preferred way to write the EE bit is the wrteei instruction. It
already encodes the EE bit in the instruction.

So in order to get BookE some speedups as well, let's also PV'nize thati

Alexander Graf 7810927760 KVM: PPC: PV mtmsrd L=0 and mtmsr
There is also a form of mtmsr where all bits need to be addressed. While the
PPC64 Linux kernel behaves resonably well here, on PPC32 we do not have an
L=1 form. It does mtmsr even for simple things like only changing EE.

So we need to hook into that one as well and check for a mask of bits that we
deem safe to change from within guest context.

Alexander Graf 819a63dc79 KVM: PPC: PV mtmsrd L=1
The PowerPC ISA has a special instruction for mtmsr that only changes the EE
and RI bits, namely the L=1 form.

Since that one is reasonably often occuring and simple to implement, let's
go with this first. Writing EE=0 is always just a store. Doing EE=1 also
requires us to check for pending interrupts and if necessary exit back to the
hypervisor.

Alexander Graf 71ee8e34fe KVM: PPC: Introduce branch patching helper

Alexander Graf 2d4f567103 KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework
We will soon require more sophisticated methods to replace single instructions
with multiple instructions. We do that by branching to a memory region where we
write replacement code for the instruction to.

This region needs to be within 32 MB of the patched instruction though, because
that's the furthest we can jump with immediate branches.

So we keep 1MB of free space around in bss. After we're done initing we can just
tell the mm system that the unused pages are free, but until then we have enough
space to fit all our code in.

Alexander Graf 2a342ed577 KVM: PPC: Implement hypervisor interface
To communicate with KVM directly we need to plumb some sort of interface
between the guest and KVM. Usually those interfaces use hypercalls.

This hypercall implementation is described in the last patch of the series
in a special documentation file. Please read that for further information.

This patch implements stubs to handle KVM PPC hypercalls on the host and
guest side alike.
