The only way object_property_add() can fail is when a property with
the same name already exists. Since our property names are all
hardcoded, failure is a programming error, and the appropriate way to
handle it is passing &error_abort.
Same for its variants, except for object_property_add_child(), which
additionally fails when the child already has a parent. Parentage is
also under program control, so this is a programming error, too.
We have a bit over 500 callers. Almost half of them pass
&error_abort, slightly fewer ignore errors, one test case handles
errors, and the remaining few callers pass them to their own callers.
The previous few commits demonstrated once again that ignoring
programming errors is a bad idea.
Of the few ones that pass on errors, several violate the Error API.
The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL. Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call. ich9_pm_add_properties(), sparc32_ledma_realize(),
sparc32_dma_realize(), xilinx_axidma_realize(), xilinx_enet_realize()
are wrong that way.
When the one appropriate choice of argument is &error_abort, letting
users pick the argument is a bad idea.
Drop parameter @errp and assert the preconditions instead.
There's one exception to "duplicate property name is a programming
error": the way object_property_add() implements the magic (and
undocumented) "automatic arrayification". Don't drop @errp there.
Instead, rename object_property_add() to object_property_try_add(),
and add the obvious wrapper object_property_add().

object_property_set_description() and

is not found.
There are 85 calls of object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description(). None of them can fail:
* 84 immediately follow the creation of the property.
* The one in spapr_rng_instance_init() refers to a property created in

Every one of them still gets to decide what to pass for @errp.
51 calls pass &error_abort, 32 calls pass NULL, one receives the error

&error_fatal. I'm actually surprised none of them violates the Error

What are we gaining by letting callers handle the "property not found"

For POWER9 DD2.2 cpus, the best current Spectre v2 indirect branch
mitigation is "count cache disabled", which is configured with:
-machine cap-ibs=fixed-ccd
However, this option isn't available on DD2.3 CPUs with KVM, because they
don't have the count cache disabled.
For POWER9 DD2.3 cpus, it is "count cache flush with assist", configured
with:
-machine cap-ibs=workaround,cap-ccf-assist=on
However this option isn't available on DD2.2 CPUs with KVM, because they
don't have the special CCF assist instruction this relies on.
On current machine types, we default to "count cache flush w/o assist",
that is:
-machine cap-ibs=workaround,cap-ccf-assist=off
This runs, with mitigation on both DD2.2 and DD2.3 host cpus, but has a
fairly significant performance impact.
It turns out we can do better. The special instruction that CCF assist
uses to trigger a count cache flush is a no-op on earlier CPUs, rather than
trapping or causing other badness. It doesn't, of itself, implement the
mitigation, but *if* we have count-cache-disabled, then the count cache
flush is unnecessary, and so using the count cache flush mitigation is
harmless.
Therefore for the new pseries-5.0 machine type, enable cap-ccf-assist by
default. Along with that, suppress throwing an error if cap-ccf-assist
is selected but KVM doesn't support it, as long as KVM *is* giving us
count-cache-disabled. To allow TCG to work out of the box, even though it
doesn't implement the ccf flush assist, downgrade the error in that case to
a warning. This matches several Spectre mitigations where we allow TCG
to operate for debugging, since we don't really make guarantees about TCG
security properties anyway.
While we're there, make the TCG warning for this case match that for other
mitigations.

The qemu coding standard is to use CamelCase for type and structure names,
and the pseries code follows that... sort of. There are quite a lot of
places where we bend the rules in order to preserve the capitalization of
internal acronyms like "PHB", "TCE", "DIMM" and most commonly "sPAPR".
That was a bad idea - it frequently leads to names ending up with hard to
read clusters of capital letters, and means they don't catch the eye as
type identifiers, which is kind of the point of the CamelCase convention in
the first place.
In short, keeping type identifiers look like CamelCase is more important
than preserving standard capitalization of internal "words". So, this
patch renames a heap of spapr internal type names to a more standard
CamelCase.
In addition to case changes, we also make some other identifier renames:
VIOsPAPR* -> SpaprVio*
The reverse word ordering was only ever used to mitigate the capital
cluster, so revert to the natural ordering.
VIOsPAPRVTYDevice -> SpaprVioVty
VIOsPAPRVLANDevice -> SpaprVioVlan
Brevity, since the "Device" didn't add useful information
sPAPRDRConnector -> SpaprDrc
sPAPRDRConnectorClass -> SpaprDrcClass

n-bit decrementing register which is visible as a 64-bit register, that
is the value of the decrementer is sign extended to 64 bits (where n is

The mode in which the decrementer operates is controlled by the LPCR_LD
bit in the logical paritition control register (LPCR).
>From POWER9 onwards the HDEC (hypervisor decrementer) was enlarged to

represented by the lrg_decr_bits cpu class property. Since they are the

the case they ever differ in the future.
We also add the lrg_decr_bits property for POWER5+/7/8 since it is used

It is currently not possible to run a pseries-2.12 or older machine

qemu-system-ppc64: KVM doesn't support for base page shift 34
The "hpt-max-page-size" capability was recently added to spapr to hide
host configuration details from HPT mode guests. Its default value for
newer machine types is 64k.
For backwards compatibility, pseries-2.12 and older machine types need
a different value. This is handled as usual in a class init function.
The default value is 16G, ie, all page sizes supported by POWER7 and
newer CPUs, but HV KVM requires guest pages to be hpa contiguous as
well as gpa contiguous. The default value is the page size used to
back the guest RAM in this case.
Unfortunately kvmppc_hpt_needs_host_contiguous_pages()->kvm_enabled() is
called way before KVM init and returns false, even if the user requested
KVM. We thus end up selecting 16G, which isn't supported by HV KVM. The
default value must be set during machine init, because we can safely
assume that KVM is initialized at this point.
We fix this by moving the logic to default_caps_with_cpu(). Since the
user cannot pass cap-hpt-max-page-size=0, we set the default to 0 in
the pseries-2.12 class init function and use that as a flag to do the
real work.

The allowable pagesizes advertised to the guest cpus depended on the memory
which was attached at boot, but then we needed to ensure that any memory
later hotplugged didn't change which pagesizes were allowed.
Now that we have an explicit machine option to control the allowable
maximum pagesize we can simplify this. We just check all memory backends

The way the POWER Hash Page Table (HPT) MMU is virtualized by KVM HV means
that every page that the guest puts in the pagetables must be truly
physically contiguous, not just GPA-contiguous. In effect this means that
an HPT guest can't use any pagesizes greater than the host page size used
to back its memory.
At present we handle this by changing what we advertise to the guest based
on the backing pagesizes. This is pretty bad, because it means the guest
sees a different environment depending on what should be host configuration
details.
As a start on fixing this, we add a new capability parameter to the
pseries machine type which gives the maximum allowed pagesizes for an
HPT guest. For now we just create and validate the parameter without
making it do anything.
For backwards compatibility, on older machine types we set it to the max
available page size for the host. For the 3.0 machine type, we fix it to
16, the intention being to only allow HPT pagesizes up to 64kiB by default

cpu. This avoids some ugly uses of first_cpu to grab a "representative"
instance.

In default_caps_with_cpu() we set spapr_cap_cfpc to broken for POWER8
processors and before.
Since we no longer require private l1d cache on POWER8 for this cap to
be set to workaround change this to default to broken for POWER7
processors and before.

There are currently 2 implemented types of spapr-caps, boolean and
tristate. However there may be a need for caps which don't fit either of
these options. Add a custom capability type for which a list of custom
valid strings can be specified and implement the get/set functions for
these. Also add a field for help text to describe the available options.

The spapr-cap cap-ibs can only have values broken or fixed as there is
no explicit workaround required. Currently setting the value workaround
for this cap will hit an assert if the guest makes the hcall
h_get_cpu_characteristics.
Report an error when attempting to apply the setting with a more helpful

The options field here is intended to list the available values for the

boolean.
We're going to add capabilities that aren't, but in that case the info on

Currently spapr_caps are tied to boolean values (on or off). This patch
reworks the caps so that they can have any uint8 value. This allows more
capabilities with various values to be represented in the same way
internally. Capabilities are numbered in ascending order. The internal
representation of capability values is an array of uint8s in the
sPAPRMachineState, indexed by capability number.
Capabilities can have their own name, description, options, getter and
setter functions, type and allow functions. They also each have their own
section in the migration stream. Capabilities are only migrated if they
were explictly set on the command line, with the assumption that
otherwise the default will match.
On migration we ensure that the capability value on the destination
is greater than or equal to the capability value from the source. So
long at this remains the case then the migration is considered
compatible and allowed to continue.
This patch implements generic getter and setter functions for boolean
capabilities. It also converts the existings cap-htm, cap-vsx and
cap-dfp capabilities to this new format.

Decimal Floating Point has been available on POWER7 and later (server)
cpus. However, it can be disabled on the hypervisor, meaning that it's
not available to guests.
We currently handle this by conditionally advertising DFP support in the
device tree depending on whether the guest CPU model supports it - which
can also depend on what's allowed in the host for -cpu host. That can lead
to confusion on migration, since host properties are silently affecting
guest visible properties.
This patch handles it by treating it as an optional capability for the
pseries machine type.

We currently have some conditionals in the spapr device tree code to decide
whether or not to advertise the availability of the VMX (aka Altivec) and
VSX vector extensions to the guest, based on whether the guest cpu has
those features.
This can lead to confusion and subtle failures on migration, since it makes
a guest visible change based only on host capabilities. We now have a
better mechanism for this, in spapr capabilities flags, which explicitly
depend on user options rather than host capabilities.
Rework the advertisement of VSX and VMX based on a new VSX capability. We
no longer bother with a conditional for VMX support, because every CPU
that's ever been supported by the pseries machine type supports VMX.
NOTE: Some userspace distributions (e.g. RHEL7.4) already rely on
availability of VSX in libc, so using cap-vsx=off may lead to a fatal
SIGILL in init.

Now that the "pseries" machine type implements optional capabilities (well,
one so far) there's the possibility of having different capabilities
available at either end of a migration. Although arguably a user error,
it would be nice to catch this situation and fail as gracefully as we can.
This adds code to migrate the capabilities flags. These aren't pulled
directly into the destination's configuration since what the user has
specified on the destination command line should take precedence. However,
they are checked against the destination capabilities.
If the source was using a capability which is absent on the destination,
we fail the migration, since that could easily cause a guest crash or other
bad behaviour. If the source lacked a capability which is present on the
destination we warn, but allow the migration to proceed.
