At present, using 'system_powerdown' from the monitor or otherwise
instructing qemu to (cleanly) shut down a pseries guest will not work,
because we did not have a method of signalling the shutdown request to the
guest.
PAPR does include a usable mechanism for this, though it is rather more
involved than the equivalent on x86. This involves sending an EPOW
(Environmental and POwer Warning) event through the PAPR event and error
logging mechanism, which also has a number of other functions.
This patch implements just enough of the event/error logging functionality
to be able to send a shutdown event to the guest. At least with modern
guest kernels and a userspace that is up and running, this means that
system_powerdown from the qemu monitor should now work correctly on pseries
guests.

And all the plaform will create one USB controller according

So this patch is to remove global variable usb_enabled and
add USB option in machine options. All the plaforms will get
USB option value from machine options.
USB option of machine options will be set either by:
* -usb
* -machine type=pseries,usb=on

PAPR hypercalls should only be invoked from the guest kernel, not guest
user programs, that is, with MSR[PR]=0. Currently we check this in
spapr_hypercall, returning H_PRIVILEGE if MSR[PR]=1.
However, under KVM the state of MSR[PR] is already checked by the host
kernel before passing the hypercall to qemu, making this check redundant.
Worse, however, we don't generally synchronize KVM and qemu state on the
hypercall path, meaning that qemu could incorrectly reject a hypercall
because it has a stale MSR value.
This patch fixes the problem by moving the privilege test exclusively to
the TCG hypercall path.

Currently the pseries machine code always attempts to set the size of the
guests's hash page table to 16MB. However, because of the way the POWER
MMU works, a suitable hash page table size should really depend on memory
size. 16MB will be excessive for guests with <1GB and RAM, and may not be
enough for guests with >2GB of RAM (depending on guest page size and
other factors).
The usual given rule of thumb is that the hash table should be 1/64 of
the size of memory, but in fact the Linux guests we are aiming at don't
really need that much. This patch, therefore, changes the hash table
allocation code to aim for 1/128 of the size of RAM (rounding up). When
using KVM, this size may still be adjusted by the host kernel if it is
unable to allocate a suitable (contiguous) table.

A number of things need to occur during reset of the PAPR
paravirtualized platform in a specific order. For example, the hash
table needs to be cleared before the CPUs are reset, so that they
initialize their register state correctly, and the CPUs need to have
their main reset called before we set up the entry point state on the
boot cpu. We also need to have the main qdev reset happen before the
creation and installation of the device tree for the new boot, because
we need the state of the devices settled to correctly construct the
device tree.
We currently do the pseries once-per-reset initializations done from a
reset handler. However we can't adequately control when this handler
is called during the reset - in particular we can't guarantee it
happens after all the qdev resets (since qdevs might be registered
after the machine init function has executed).
This patch uses the new QEMUMachine reset method to to fix this
problem, ensuring the various order dependent reset steps happen in
the correct order.

The current pseries machine init function iterates over the CPUs at several
points, doing various bits of initialization. This is messy; these can
and should be merged into a single iteration doing all the necessary per
cpu initialization. Worse, some of these initializations were setting up
state which should be set on every reset, not just at machine init time.
A few of the initializations simply weren't necessary at all.
This patch, therefore, moves those things that need to be to the
per-cpu reset handler, and combines the remainder into two loops over
the cpus (which also creates them). The second loop is for setting up
hash table information, and will be removed in a subsequent patch also
making other fixes to the hash table setup.
This exposes a bug in our start-cpu RTAS routine (called by the guest to
start up CPUs other than CPU0) under kvm. Previously, this function did
not make a call to ensure that it's changes to the new cpu's state were
pushed into KVM in-kernel state. We sort-of got away with this because
some of the initializations had already placed the secondary CPUs into the
right starting state for the sorts of Linux guests we've been running.
Nonetheless the start-cpu RTAS call's behaviour was not correct and could
easily have been broken by guest changes. This patch also fixes it.

Currently, the interfaces in the pseries machine code for assignment

in an attempt not to be too closely linked to the specific XICS
interrupt controller. However interactions with the device tree setup
made that attempt rather futile, and XICS is part of the PAPR spec
anyway, so this really just meant we had to carry both the qemu_irq
pointers and the XICS irq numbers around.
This mess will just get worse when we add upcoming PCI MSI support,
since that will require tracking a bunch more interrupt. Therefore,
this patch reworks the spapr code to just use XICS irq numbers
(roughly equivalent to GSIs on x86) and only retrieve the qemu_irq
pointers from the XICS code when we need them (a trivial lookup).

This adds a qemu-specific hypervisor call to the pseries machine
which allows to do what amounts to memmove, memcpy and xor over
regions of physical memory such as the framebuffer.
This is the simplest way to get usable framebuffer speed from
SLOF since the framebuffer isn't mapped in the VRMA and so would
otherwise require an hcall per 8 bytes access.
The performance is still not great but usable, and can be improved
with a more complex implementation of the hcall itself if needed.
This also adds some documentation for the qemu-specific hypercalls
that we add to PAPR along with a new qemu,hypertas-functions property
that mirrors ibm,hypertas-functions and provides some discoverability
for the new calls.
Note: I chose note to advertise H_RTAS to the guest via that mechanism.
This is done on purpose, the guest uses the normal RTAS interfaces
provided by qemu (including SLOF) which internally calls H_RTAS.
We might in the future implement part (or even all) of RTAS inside the

PAPR virtual IO (VIO) devices require a unique, but otherwise arbitrary,
"address" used as a token to the hypercalls which manipulate them.
Currently the pseries machine code does an ok job of allocating these
addresses when the legacy -net nic / -serial and so forth options are used
but will fail to allocate them properly when using -device.
Specifically, you can use -device if all addresses are explicitly assigned.
Without explicit assignment, only one VIO device of each type (network,
console, SCSI) will be assigned properly, any further ones will attempt
to take the same address leading to a fatal error.
This patch fixes the situation by adding a proper address allocator to the
VIO "bus" code. This is used both by -device and the legacy options and
default devices. Addresses can still be explicitly assigned with -device
options if desired.
This patch changes the (guest visible) numbering of VIO devices, but since
their addresses are discovered using the device tree and already differ
from the numbering found on existing PowerVM systems, this does not break

When I implemented the xics emulation for qemu, the only devices we

message interrupts, so they were the only ones I implemented in xics.
Since then, however, we have added support for PCI devices, which use
level sensitive interrupts. It turns out the message interrupt logic
still actually works most of the time for these, but there are
circumstances where we can lost interrupts due to the incorrect
interrupt logic.
This patch, therefore, implements the correct xics level-sensitive

Currently on the pseries machine the SLOF firmware is used normally,
but we bypass it when -kernel is specified. Having these two
different boot paths can cause some confusion.
In particular at present we need to "probe" the (emulated) PCI bus and
produce device tree nodes for the PCI devices in qemu, for the -kernel
case. In the SLOF case, it takes the device tree from qemu adds some
stuff to it then passes it on to the kernel.
It's been decided that a better approach is to always boot through
SLOF, even when using -kernel. WIth this approach we can leave PCI
probing and device node creation to SLOF in all cases which removes a
bunch of code in qemu, and avoids iterating the PCI devices from the
machine specific init code which we're not supposed to do.
This patch changes qemu to always boot through SLOF, and not to create
PCI nodes. Simultaneously it updates the included version of SLOF
(submodule and binary image) to one which supports (and requires) the
new approach.
The new SLOF version also includes a number of unrelated enhancements:
support for booting from virtio-pci devices and e1000, greatly
improved FCode support and many bugfixes. It also makes SLOF ready to
be used even when specifying a kernel on the qemu command line.

The SLOF firmware used on the pseries machine needs a reasonable amount of

function to check that this is available. However, SLOF runs in real mode
(MMU off) which means it can only actually access the RMA (Real Mode Area),
not all of RAM. In many cases the RMA is the same as all RAM, but when
running with Book3S HV KVM on PowerPC 970, the RMA must be especially
allocated to be (host) physically contiguous. In this case, the RMA size
is determined by what the host admin allocated at boot time, and will
usually be less than the whole guest RAM size.
This patch corrects the test to see if SLOF has enough memory for this
case.
In addition, more recent versions of SLOF that were committed earlier don't
need quite as much memory as earlier versions. Therefore, this patch also
reduces the amount of RAM we require to run SLOF.

this code alone. Still, this is enough to support the virtio_pci device

Currently we do not put these in the guest device tree and the guest
kernel will consequently assume they are not available. This is good,
because they are not supported under TCG. VMX is similar enough to
Altivec that it might be trivial to support, but VSX and DFP would
both require significant work to support in TCG.
However, when running under kvm on a host which supports these
instructions, there's no reason not to let the guest use them. This
patch, therefore, checks for the relevant support on the host CPU
and, if present, advertises them to the guest as well.

At present, using the hypervisor aware Book3S-HV KVM will only work
with qemu on POWER7 CPUs. PPC970 CPUs also have hypervisor
capability, but they lack the VRMA feature which makes assigning guest
memory easier.
In order to allow KVM Book3S-HV on PPC970, we need to specially
allocate the first chunk of guest memory (the "Real Mode Area" or
RMA), so that it is physically contiguous.
Sufficiently recent host kernels allow such contiguous RMAs to be
allocated, with a kvm capability advertising whether the feature is
available and/or necessary on this hardware. This patch enables qemu
to use this support, thus allowing kvm acceleration of pseries qemu
machines on PPC970 hardware.

agraf: fix to use memory api
Alex Graf has already made qemu support KVM for the pseries machine
when using the Book3S-PR KVM variant (which runs the guest in
usermode, emulating supervisor operations). This code allows gets us
very close to also working with KVM Book3S-HV (using the hypervisor
capabilities of recent POWER CPUs).
This patch moves us another step towards Book3S-HV support by
correctly handling SMT (multithreaded) POWER CPUs. There are two
parts to this:
* Querying KVM to check SMT capability, and if present, adjusting the
cpu numbers that qemu assigns to cause KVM to assign guest threads
to cores in the right way (this isn't automatic, because the POWER
HV support has a limitation that different threads on a single core
cannot be in different guests at the same time).
* Correctly informing the guest OS of the SMT thread to core mappings
via the device tree.

Paulo Bonzini changed the original spapr code, which manually assigned irq
numbers for each virtual device, to allocate them automatically from the
device initialization. That allowed spapr virtual devices to be constructed
with -device, which is a good start. However, the way that patch worked
doesn't extend nicely for the future when we want to support devices other
than sPAPR VIO devices (e.g. virtio and PCI).
This patch rearranges the irq allocation to be global across the sPAPR
environment, so it can be used by other bus types as well.
