29979a8d25 PPC: KVM: Synchronize regs on CPU dump
When we dump the CPU registers, there's a certain chance they haven't been
synchronized with KVM yet, so we have to manually trigger that.

This aligns the code with x86 and fixes a bug where the register state was
bogus on invalid/unknown kvm exit reasons.

b5aec39672 pseries: Don't try to munmap() a malloc()ed TCE table
For the pseries machine, TCE (IOMMU) tables can either be directly
malloc()ed in qemu or, when running on a KVM which supports it, mmap()ed
from a KVM ioctl.  The latter option is used when available, because it
allows the (frequent bottlenext) H_PUT_TCE hypercall to be KVM accelerated.
However, even when KVM is persent, TCE acceleration is not always possible.
Only KVM HV supports this ioctl(), not KVM PR, or the kernel could run out
of contiguous memory to allocate the new table.  In this case we need to
fall back on the malloc()ed table.

When a device is removed, and we need to remove the TCE table, we need to
either munmap() or free() the table as appropriate for how it was
allocated.  The code is supposed to do that, but we buggily fail to
initialize the tcet->fd variable in the malloc() case, which is used as a
flag to determine which is the right choice.

This patch fixes the bug, and cleans up error messages relating to this
path while we're at it.

a31be480a0 PPC: KVM: Update HIOR code to new interface
Unfortunately the HIOR setting code slipped into upstream QEMU
before it was pulled into upstream KVM. And since Murphy is always
right, comments on the patches only emerged on the pull request
leading to changes in the interface.

So here's an update to the HIOR setting. While at it, I also relaxed
it a bit since for HV KVM we can already run fine without and 3.2
works just fine with HV KVM but when not setting HIOR. We will only
need this when running PAPR in PR KVM.

Since we accidently changed the ABI and API along the way, we have
to update the underlying kernel headers together with the code that
uses it to not break bisectability.

02d4eae4b0 ppc: Alter CPU state to mask out TCG unimplemented instructions as appropriate
The CPU state contains two bitmaps, initialized from the CPU spec
which describes which instructions are implemented on the CPU.  A
couple of bits are defined which cover instructions (VSX and DFP)
which are not currently implemented in TCG.  So far, these are only
used to handle the case of -cpu host because a KVM guest can use
the instructions when the host CPU supports them.

However, it's a mild layering violation to simply not include those
bits in the CPU descriptions for those CPUs that do support them,
just because we can't handle them in TCG.  This patch corrects the
situation, so that the instruction bits _are_ shown correctly in the
cpu spec table, but are masked out from the cpu state in the non-KVM
case.

74b41e5676 pseries: Allow writes to KVM accelerated TCE table
Sufficiently recent kernels include a KVM call to accelerate use of
PAPR TCE tables (IOMMU), which are used by PAPR virtual IO devices.
This involves qemu mapping the TCE table in from a kernel obtained fd,
which currently we do with PROT_READ only.  This is a hangover from
early (never released) versions of this kernel interface which only
permitted read-only mappings and required us to destroy and recreate
the table when we needed to clear it from qemu.

Now, the kernel permits read-write mappings, and we rely on this to
clear the table in spapr_vio_quiesce_one().  However, due to
insufficient testing, I forgot to update the actual mapping of the
table in kvmppc_create_spapr_tce() to add PROT_WRITE to the mmap().

This patch corrects the oversight.

a7342588c0 pseries: Correct vmx/dfp handling in both KVM and TCG cases
Currently, when KVM is enabled, the pseries machine checks if the host
CPU supports VMX, VSX and/or DFP instructions and advertises
accordingly in the guest device tree.  It does this regardless of what
CPU is selected on the command line.  On the other hand, when in TCG
mode, it never advertises any of these facilities, even basic VMX
(Altivec) which is supported in TCG.

Now that we have a -cpu host option for ppc, it is fairly
straightforward to fix both problems.  This patch changes the -cpu
host code to override the basic cpu spec derived from the PVR with
information queried from the host avout VMX, VSX and DFP capability.
The pseries code then uses the instruction availability advertised in
the cpu state to set the guest device tree correctly for both the KVM
and TCG cases.

a1e985833c ppc: First cut implementation of -cpu host
For convenience with kvm, x86 allows the user to specify -cpu host on the
qemu command line, which means make the guest cpu the same as the host
cpu.  This patch implements the same option for ppc targets.

For now, this just read the host PVR (Processor Version Register) and
selects one of our existing CPU specs based on it.  This means that the
option will not work if the host cpu is not supported by TCG, even if that
wouldn't matter for use under kvm.

In future, we can extend this in future to override parts of the cpu spec
based on information obtained from the host (via /proc/cpuinfo, the host
device tree, or explicit KVM calls).  That will let us handle cases where
the real kvm-virtualized CPU doesn't behave exactly like the TCG-emulated
CPU.  With appropriate annotation of the CPU specs we'll also then be able
to use host cpus under kvm even when there isn't a matching full TCG model.

be40edcd87 ppc: Remove broken partial PVR matching
The ppc target contains a ppc_find_by_pvr() function, which looks up a
CPU spec based on a PVR (that is, based on the value in the target cpu's
Processor Version Register).  PVR values contain information on both the
cpu model (upper 16 bits, usually) and on the precise revision (low 16
bits, usually).

ppc_find_by_pvr, as well as making exact PVR matches, attempts to find
"close" PVR matches, when we don't have a CPU spec for the exact revision
specified.  This sounds like a good idea, execpt that the current logic
is completely nonsensical.

It seems to assume CPU families are subdivided bit by bit in the PVR in a
way they just aren't.  Specifically, it requires a match on all bits of the
specified pvr up to the last non-zero bit.  This has the bizarre effect
that when the low bits are simply a sequential revision number (a common
though not universal pattern), then odd specified revisions must be matched
exactly, whereas even specified revisions will also match the next odd
revision, likewise for powers of 4, 8 and so forth.

To correctly do inexact matching we'd need to re-organize the table of CPU
specs to include a mask showing what PVR range the spec is compatible with
(similar to the cputable code in the Linux kernel).

For now, just remove the bogosity by only permitting exact PVR matches.
That at least makes the matching simple and consistent.  If we need inexact
matching we can add the necessary per-subfamily masks later.

6659394fa1 pseries: Add device tree properties for VMX/VSX and DFP under kvm
Sufficiently recent PAPR specifications define properties "ibm,vmx"
and "ibm,dfp" on the CPU node which advertise whether the VMX vector
extensions (or the later VSX version) and/or the Decimal Floating
Point operations from IBM's recent POWER CPUs are available.

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.
