2012-03-15pseries: Don't try to munmap() a malloc()ed TCE tableDavid Gibson
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.

2012-02-02PPC: KVM: Update HIOR code to new interfaceAlexander Graf
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.

2011-10-30pseries: Allow writes to KVM accelerated TCE tableDavid Gibson
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.

2011-10-30KVM: PPC: Override host vmx/vsx/dfp only when information knownAlexander Graf
The -cpu host feature tries to find out the host capabilities based on device tree information. However, we don't always have that available because it's an optional property in dt. So instead of force unsetting values depending on an unreliable source of information, let's just try to be clever about it and not override capabilities when we don't know the device tree pieces. This fixes altivec with -cpu host on YDL PowerStations.

2011-10-30pseries: Correct vmx/dfp handling in both KVM and TCG casesDavid Gibson
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.

2011-10-30ppc: First cut implementation of -cpu hostDavid Gibson
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.

2011-10-30pseries: Add device tree properties for VMX/VSX and DFP under kvmDavid Gibson
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.

2011-10-30ppc: Generalize the kvmppc_get_clockfreq() functionDavid Gibson
Currently the kvmppc_get_clockfreq() function reads the host's clock frequency from /proc/device-tree, which is useful to past to the guest in KVM setups. However, there are some other host properties advertised in the device tree which can also be relevant to the guests. This patch, therefore, replaces kvmppc_get_clockfreq() which can retrieve any named, single integer property from the host device tree's CPU node.

2011-10-30pseries: Use Book3S-HV TCE acceleration capabilitiesDavid Gibson
The pseries machine of qemu implements the TCE mechanism used as a virtual IOMMU for the PAPR defined virtual IO devices. Because the PAPR spec only defines a small DMA address space, the guest VIO drivers need to update TCE mappings very frequently - the virtual network device is particularly bad. This means many slow exits to qemu to emulate the H_PUT_TCE hypercall. Sufficiently recent kernels allow this to be mitigated by implementing H_PUT_TCE in the host kernel. To make use of this, however, qemu needs to initialize the necessary TCE tables, and map them into itself so that the VIO device implementations can retrieve the mappings when they access guest memory (which is treated as a virtual DMA operation). This patch adds the necessary calls to use the KVM TCE acceleration. If the kernel does not support acceleration, or there is some other error creating the accelerated TCE table, then it will still fall back to full userspace TCE implementation.

2011-10-30pseries: Allow KVM Book3S-HV on PPC970 CPUSDavid Gibson
At present, using the hypervisor aware Book3S-HV KVM will only work with qemu on POWER7 CPUs. PPC970 CPUs also have hypervisor capability, but they lack the VRMA feature which makes assigning guest memory easier. In order to allow KVM Book3S-HV on PPC970, we need to specially allocate the first chunk of guest memory (the "Real Mode Area" or RMA), so that it is physically contiguous. Sufficiently recent host kernels allow such contiguous RMAs to be allocated, with a kvm capability advertising whether the feature is available and/or necessary on this hardware. This patch enables qemu to use this support, thus allowing kvm acceleration of pseries qemu machines on PPC970 hardware.

2011-10-30pseries: Support SMT systems for KVM Book3S-HVDavid Gibson
Alex Graf has already made qemu support KVM for the pseries machine when using the Book3S-PR KVM variant (which runs the guest in usermode, emulating supervisor operations). This code allows gets us very close to also working with KVM Book3S-HV (using the hypervisor capabilities of recent POWER CPUs). This patch moves us another step towards Book3S-HV support by correctly handling SMT (multithreaded) POWER CPUs. There are two parts to this: * Querying KVM to check SMT capability, and if present, adjusting the cpu numbers that qemu assigns to cause KVM to assign guest threads to cores in the right way (this isn't automatic, because the POWER HV support has a limitation that different threads on a single core cannot be in different guests at the same time). * Correctly informing the guest OS of the SMT thread to core mappings via the device tree.

Thankfully there is now a new interface to set registers individually so we can just use that and poke HIOR into the guest vcpu's HIOR register.

2011-04-01Parse SDR1 on mtspr instead of at translate timeDavid Gibson
On ppc machines with hash table MMUs, the special purpose register SDR1 contains both the base address of the encoded size (hashed) page tables. At present, we interpret the SDR1 value within the address translation path. But because the encodings of the size for 32-bit and 64-bit are different this makes for a confusing branch on the MMU type with a bunch of curly shifts and masks in the middle of the translate path. This patch cleans things up by moving the interpretation on SDR1 into the helper function handling the write to the register. This leaves a simple pre-sanitized base address and mask for the hash table in the CPUState structure which is easier to work with in the translation path. This makes the translation path more readable. It addresses the FIXME comment currently in the mtsdr1 helper, by validating the SDR1 value during interpretation. Finally it opens the way for emulating a pSeries-style partition where the hash table used for translation is not mapped into the guests's RAM.

2010-09-05KVM: PPC: Add level based interrupt logicAlexander Graf
KVM on PowerPC used to have completely broken interrupt logic. Usually, interrupts work by having a PIC that pulls a line up/down, so the CPU knows that an interrupt is active. This line stays active until some action is done to the PIC to release the line. On KVM for PPC, we just checked if there was an interrupt pending and pulled a line in the kernel module. We never released it though, hoping that kernel space would just declare an interrupt as released when injected - which is wrong. To fix this, we need to completely redesign the interrupt injection logic. Whenever an interrupt line gets triggered, we need to notify kernel space that the line is up. Whenever it gets released, we do the same. This way we can assure that the interrupt state is always known to kernel space. This fixes random stalls in KVM guests on PowerPC that were waiting for an interrupt while everyone else thought they received it already. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
2010-08-26PPC: Add PV hypercall transport through fw_cfgAlexander Graf

2010-03-04KVM: Rework VCPU state writeback APIJan Kiszka
This grand cleanup drops all reset and vmsave/load related synchronization points in favor of four(!) generic hooks: - cpu_synchronize_all_states in qemu_savevm_state_complete (initial sync from kernel before vmsave) - cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in qemu_loadvm_state (writeback after vmload) - cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in main after machine init - cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset in qemu_system_reset (writeback after system reset) These writeback points + the existing one of VCPU exec after cpu_synchronize_state map on three levels of writeback: - KVM_PUT_RUNTIME_STATE (during runtime, other VCPUs continue to run) - KVM_PUT_RESET_STATE (on synchronous system reset, all VCPUs stopped) - KVM_PUT_FULL_STATE (on init or vmload, all VCPUs stopped as well) This level is passed to the arch-specific VCPU state writing function that will decide which concrete substates need to be written. That way, no writer of load, save or reset functions that interact with in-kernel KVM states will ever have to worry about synchronization again. That also means that a lot of reasons for races, segfaults and deadlocks are eliminated. cpu_synchronize_state remains untouched, just as Anthony suggested. We continue to need it before reading or writing of VCPU states that are also tracked by in-kernel KVM subsystems. Consequently, this patch removes many cpu_synchronize_state calls that are now redundant, just like remaining explicit register syncs.

2010-02-14PPC: Add timer when running KVMAlexander Graf
For some odd reason we sometimes hang inside KVM forever. I'd guess it's a race condition where we actually have a level triggered interrupt, but the infrastructure can't expose that yet, so the guest ACKs it, goes to sleep and never gets notified that there's still an interrupt pending.

2010-02-14PPC: tell the guest about the time base frequencyAlexander Graf
Our guest systems need to know by how much the timebase increases every second, so there usually is a "timebase-frequency" property in the cpu leaf of the device tree. This property is missing in OpenBIOS. With qemu, Linux's fallback timebase speed and qemu's internal timebase speed match up. With KVM, that is no longer true. The guest is running at the same timebase speed as the host. This leads to massive timing problems. On my test machine, a "sleep 2" takes about 14 seconds with KVM enabled. This patch exports the timebase frequency to OpenBIOS, so it can then put them into the device tree. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

2008-12-16target-ppc: Enable KVM for ppcemb.aurel32
Implement hooks called by generic KVM code. Also add code that will copy the host's CPU and timebase frequencies to the guest, which is necessary on KVM because the guest can directly access the timebase.
