Alexander Graf bed1ed9860 KVM: PPC: Move EXIT_DEBUG partially to tracepoints
We have a debug printk on every exit that is usually #ifdef'ed out. Using
tracepoints makes a lot more sense here though, as they can be dynamically
enabled.

This patch converts the most commonly used debug printks of EXIT_DEBUG to
tracepoints.

Alexander Graf 2b05d71fef KVM: PPC: Make long relocations be ulong
On Book3S KVM we directly expose some asm pointers to C code as
variables. These need to be relocated and thus break on relocatable
kernels.

To make sure we can at least build, let's mark them as long instead
of u32 where 64bit relocations don't work.

This fixes the following build error:

WARNING: 2 bad relocations^M
> c000000000008590 R_PPC64_ADDR32    .text+0x4000000000008460^M
> c000000000008594 R_PPC64_ADDR32    .text+0x4000000000008598^M

Please keep in mind that actually using KVM on a relocated kernel
might still break. This only fixes the compile problem.

Alexander Graf 2e0908afaf KVM: PPC: RCU'ify the Book3s MMU
So far we've been running all code without locking of any sort. This wasn't
really an issue because I didn't see any parallel access to the shadow MMU
code coming.

But then I started to implement dirty bitmapping to MOL which has the video
code in its own thread, so suddenly we had the dirty bitmap code run in
parallel to the shadow mmu code. And with that came trouble.

So I went ahead and made the MMU modifying functions as parallelizable as
I could think of. I hope I didn't screw up too much RCU logic :-). If you
know your way around RCU and locking and what needs to be done when, please
take a look at this patch.

Alexander Graf 15711e9c92 KVM: PPC: Add get_pvinfo interface to query hypercall instructions
We need to tell the guest the opcodes that make up a hypercall through
interfaces that are controlled by userspace. So we need to add a call
for userspace to allow it to query those opcodes so it can pass them

This is required because the hypercall opcodes can change based on
the hypervisor conditions. If we're running in hardware accelerated
hypervisor mode, a hypercall looks different from when we're running
without hardware acceleration.

When the guest turns on interrupts again, it needs to know if we have an
interrupt pending for it. Because if so, it should rather get out of guest

When running in hooked code we need a way to disable interrupts without

To achieve this, we have an additional critical field in the shared page. If
that field is equal to the r1 register of the guest, it tells the hypervisor
that we're in such a critical section and thus may not receive any interrupts.

The SRR0 and SRR1 registers contain cached values of the PC and MSR
respectively. They get written to by the hypervisor when an interrupt
occurs or directly by the kernel. They are also used to tell the rfi(d)

Because it only gets touched on defined events that, it's very simple to

Alexander Graf 666e7252a1 KVM: PPC: Convert MSR to shared page
One of the most obvious registers to share with the guest directly is the
MSR. The MSR contains the "interrupts enabled" flag which the guest has to
toggle in critical sections.

So in order to bring the overhead of interrupt en- and disabling down, let's
put msr into the shared page. Keep in mind that even though you can fully read
its contents, writing to it doesn't always update all state. There are a few
safe fields that don't require hypervisor interaction. See the documentation
for a list of MSR bits that are safe to be set from inside the guest.

Alexander Graf 7741909bf1 KVM: PPC: Add generic hpte management functions
Currently the shadow paging code keeps an array of entries it knows about.
Whenever the guest invalidates an entry, we loop through that entry,
trying to invalidate matching parts.

While this is a really simple implementation, it is probably the most
ineffective one possible. So instead, let's keep an array of lists around
that are indexed by a hash. This way each PTE can be added by 4 list_add,
removed by 4 list_del invocations and the search only needs to loop through
entries that share the same hash.

This patch implements said lookup and exports generic functions that both
the 32-bit and 64-bit backend can use.

We have a condition in the ppc64 host mmu code that should never occur.
Unfortunately, it just did happen to me and I was rather puzzled on why,
because BUG_ON doesn't tell me anything useful.

So let's add some more debug output in case this goes wrong. Also change
BUG to WARN, since I don't want to reboot every time I mess something up.

Alexander Graf 6fc5582580 KVM: PPC: Make Alignment interrupts work again
In the process of merging Book3S_32 and 64 I somehow ended up having the
alignment interrupt handler take last_inst, but the fetching code not
fetching it. So we ended up with stale last_inst values.

Let's just enable last_inst fetching for alignment interrupts too.

Alexander Graf f7bc74e1c3 KVM: PPC: Improve split mode
When in split mode, instruction relocation and data relocation are not equal.

So far we implemented this mode by reserving a special pseudo-VSID for the
two cases and flushing all PTEs when going into split mode, which is slow.

Unfortunately 32bit Linux and Mac OS X use split mode extensively. So to not
slow down things too much, I came up with a different idea: Mark the split
mode with a bit in the VSID and then treat it like any other segment.

This means we can just flush the shadow segment cache, but keep the PTEs
intact. I verified that this works with ppc32 Linux and Mac OS X 10.4
guests and does speed them up.
