2011-11-18pseries: Allow kernel's early debug output to workDavid Gibson
The PAPR specification defines a virtual TTY/console interface for guest OSes to use via the H_PUT_TERM_CHAR and H_GET_TERM_CHAR hypercalls. There can be multiple virtual ttys, so these take a "termno" parameter. This encodes which vty to use as the 'reg' property on the device tree node associated with that vty. However, with the early debug options enabled, the Linux kernel will attempt debugging output through the vty very early, before it has read the device tree. In this case it always uses a termno of 0. This works on the existing PowerVM hypervisor, so we assume there must be a hack / feature in there which interprets termno==0 to mean the default primary console. To help with debugging kernels, including existing distribution kernels, this patch implements a similar feature / hack in qemu. If termno==0 is supplied to H_{GET,PUT}_TERM_CHAR, they use the first available vty device instead. We need to be careful in the case that the user has manually created an spapr-vty at address 0. So first we search for the specified reg and only if that doesn't match do we fall back.

2011-11-18pseries: Default reg for vty should be SPAPR_VTY_BASE_ADDRESSMichael Ellerman
In commit b4a78527359a4540d84d4cdf629d01cbb262f698 ("Place pseries vty devices at addresses more similar to existing machines"), we changed the default reg for the vty to 0x30000000, however we didn't update the default value for a user specified vty device. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
2011-11-18pseries: Check we have a chardev in spapr_vty_init()Michael Ellerman
If qemu is run like: qemu-system-ppc64 -nodefaults -device spapr-vty We end up in spapr_vty_init() with dev->chardev == NULL. Currently that leads to a segfault because we unconditionally call qemu_chr_add_handlers(). Although we could make that call conditional, I think a spapr-vty without a chardev is basically useless so fail the init. This is similar to what the serial code does for example.

2011-10-06spapr: prepare for qdevification of irqPaolo Bonzini
Restructure common properties for sPAPR devices so that IRQ definitions can be added in one place. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Cc: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
2011-10-06spapr: proper qdevificationPaolo Bonzini
Right now the spapr devices cannot be instantiated with -device, because the IRQs need to be passed to the spapr_*_create functions. Do this instead in the bus's init wrapper. This is particularly important with the conversion from scsi-disk to scsi-{cd,hd} that Markus made. After his patches, if you specify a scsi-cd device attached to an if=none drive, the default VSCSI controller will not be created and, without qdevification, you will not be able to add yours.

2011-04-01Add (virtual) interrupt to PAPR virtual tty deviceDavid Gibson
Now that we have implemented the PAPR "xics" virtualized interrupt controller, we can add interrupts in PAPR VIO devices. This patch adds interrupt support to the PAPR virtual tty/console device. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
2011-04-01Implement the bus structure for PAPR virtual IODavid Gibson
This extends the "pseries" (PAPR) machine to include a virtual IO bus supporting the PAPR defined hypercall based virtual IO mechanisms. So far only one VIO device is provided, the vty / vterm, providing a full console (polled only, for now). Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
