An SLB entry contains two pieces of information related to size: 1) PTE size 2) SLB size The L bit defines the PTE be "large" (usually means 16MB), SLB_VSID_B_1T defines that the SLB should span 1 GB instead of the default 256MB. Apparently I messed things up and just put those two in one box, shaked it heavily and came up with the current code which handles large pages incorrectly, because it also treats large page SLB entries as "1TB" segment entries. This patch splits those two features apart, making Linux guests boot even when they have > 256MB. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

When we get a program interrupt in guest kernel mode, we try to emulate the instruction. If that doesn't fail, we report to the user and try again - at the exact same instruction pointer. So if the guest kernel really does trigger an invalid instruction, we loop forever. So let's better go and forward program exceptions to the guest when we don't know the instruction we're supposed to emulate.

When we need to reinject a program interrupt into the guest, we also need to reinject the corresponding flags into the guest. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Reported-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Book3S needs some flags in SRR1 to get to know details about an interrupt. One such example is the trap instruction. It tells the guest kernel that a program interrupt is due to a trap using a bit in SRR1. This patch implements above behavior, making WARN_ON behave like WARN_ON.

Currently we're racy when doing the transition from IR=1 to IR=0, from the module memory entry code to the real mode SLB switching code. To work around that I took a look at the RTAS entry code which is faced with a similar problem and did the same thing: A small helper in linear mapped memory that does mtmsr with IR=0 and then RFIs info the actual handler. Thanks to that trick we can safely take page faults in the entry code and only need to be really wary of what to do as of the SLB switching part.

Using an RFI in IR=1 is dangerous. We need to set two SRRs and then do an RFI without getting interrupted at all, because every interrupt could potentially overwrite the SRR values. Fortunately, we don't need to RFI in at least this particular case of the code, so we can just replace it with an mtmsr and b.

To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early exit code, where we are still in a very transitional phase between guest and host state. Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries. To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction. That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".

We're being horribly racy right now. All the entry and exit code hijacks random fields from the PACA that could easily be used by different code in case we get interrupted, for example by a #MC or even page fault. After discussing this with Ben, we figured it's best to reserve some more space in the PACA and just shove off some vcpu state to there. That way we can drastically improve the readability of the code, make it less racy and less complex. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

We now have helpers for the GPRs, so let's also add some for CR and XER. Having them in the PACA simplifies code a lot, as we don't need to care about where to store CC or not to overflow any integers. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

All code in PPC KVM currently accesses gprs in the vcpu struct directly. While there's nothing wrong with that wrt the current way gprs are stored and loaded, it doesn't suffice for the PACA acceleration that will follow in this patchset. So let's just create little wrapper inline functions that we call whenever a GPR needs to be read from or written to. The compiled code shouldn't really change at all for now.

The PowerPC C ABI defines that registers r14-r31 need to be preserved across function calls. Since our exit handler is written in C, we can make use of that and don't need to reload r14-r31 on every entry/exit cycle. This technique is also used in the BookE code and is called "lightweight exits" there. To follow the tradition, it's called the same in Book3S. So far this optimization was disabled though, as the code didn't do what it was expected to do, but failed to work. This patch fixes and enables lightweight exits again.

When we're loading bolted entries into the SLB again, we're checking if an entry is in use and only slbmte it when it is. Unfortunately, the check always goes to the skip label of the first entry, resulting in an endless loop when it actually gets triggered.

When the guest acknowledges an interrupt, it sends an EOI message to the local apic, which broadcasts it to the ioapic. To handle the EOI, we need to take the ioapic mutex. On large guests, this causes a lot of contention on this mutex. Since large guests usually don't route interrupts via the ioapic (they use msi instead), this is completely unnecessary. Avoid taking the mutex by introducing a handled_vectors bitmap. Before taking the mutex, check if the ioapic was actually responsible for the acked vector. If not, we can return early.

We treated the DEC interrupt like an edge based one. This is not true for Book3s. The DEC keeps firing until mtdec is issued again and thus clears the interrupt line. So let's implement this logic in KVM too. This patch moves the line clearing from the firing of the interrupt to the mtdec emulation. This makes PPC64 guests work without AGGRESSIVE_DEC defined.

We're using a switch table to find the irqprio that belongs to a specific interrupt vector. This table is part of the interrupt inject logic. Since we'll add a new function to stop interrupts, let's move this table out of the injection logic into a separate function.
