Critical exception on 64-bit booke uses user-visible SPRG3 as scratch. Restore VDSO information in SPRG3 on exception prolog. Use a common sprg3 field in PACA for all powerpc64 architectures.

Embedded.Hypervisor category defines GSPRG0..3 physical registers for guests. Avoid SPRG4-7 usage as scratch in host exception handlers, otherwise guest SPRG4-7 registers will be clobbered. For bolted TLB miss exception handlers, which is the version currently supported by KVM, use SPRN_SPRG_GEN_SCRATCH aka SPRG0 instead of SPRN_SPRG_TLB_SCRATCH aka SPRG6. Keep using TLB PACA slots to fit in one 64-byte cache line. For critical exception handlers use SPRG3 instead of SPRG7. Provide a routine to store and restore user-visible SPRGs. This will be subsequently used to restore VDSO information in SPRG3. Add EX_R13 to paca slots to free up SPRG3 and change the critical exception epilog to use it.

Refactor exception prolog to get rid of mfspr srr1 duplicate. This was introduced by KVM integration, with DO_KVM macro logic expecting srr1 value earlier in r11. Reserve r11 to hold srr1's value also required at the end of the prolog and free up r10 to serve as spare in addition macros. For syscalls case this change does not add any performance penalty. For irq soft-disabled case the change adds a store/load of conditional register value to/from a paca slot. Paca slots fit in one 64-byte cache line so these additional operations have little impact on performance.

Add thread_struct.trap_nr and use it to store the last exception the thread experienced. In this patch, we populate the field at various places where we force_sig_info() to the process.

We have an old FIXME in reg.h which points out that we should standardise on PVR_foo for our PVR #defines. Currently we use PVR_ on 32-bit and PV_ on 64-bit. So do that rename and remove the FIXME. Seeing as we're touching all but one usage of __is_processor(), rename it to something less ugly and more indicative of what it does, which is simply to check the PVR version.

The pseries hvterm driver only registers a udbg backend (for xmon and other low level debugging mechanisms) when hvc0 is recognized as the firmware console at boot time, not if it's detected later on, for example because the firmware is using a graphics card. This can make debugging challenging especially under X11, and there's really no good reason for that limitation, so let's hookup udbg whenever hvc0 is detected instead.

hvc_console has two methods to instanciate the consoles. hvc_instanciate is meant to be called at early boot, while hvc_alloc is called for more dynamically probed objects. Currently, it only deals with adding kernel consoles in the former case, which means for example that if a console only uses dynamic probing, it will never be usable as a kernel console even when specifying console=hvc0 explicitly, which could be considered annoying... More specifically, on pseries, we only do the early instanciate for the console currently used by the firmware, so if you have your firmware configured to go to a video card, for example, you cannot get your kernel console, oops messages, etc... on your serial port or hypervisor console, which would be handy to deal with oopses. This fixes it by checking if hvc_console.flags & CON_ENABLED is set when registering a new dynamic console, and if not, redo the index check and re-register the console if the index matches, allowing console=hvcN to work.

In commit f5339277 "powerpc: Remove FW_FEATURE ISERIES from arch code", we removed the bulk of the iSeries code, but missed a few bits. Remove the mschunks bits, these were only ever used on iSeries as far as I know, and are definitely not used anymore. Make it even clearer that phys_to_abs() is a nop, by making it a macro. We still have a few users of this, but should clean those up. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
