2015-09-23ppc/spapr: Implement H_RANDOM hypercall in QEMUThomas Huth
The PAPR interface defines a hypercall to pass high-quality hardware generated random numbers to guests. Recent kernels can already provide this hypercall to the guest if the right hardware random number generator is available. But in case the user wants to use another source like EGD, or QEMU is running with an older kernel, we should also have this call in QEMU, so that guests that do not support virtio-rng yet can get good random numbers, too. This patch now adds a new pseudo-device to QEMU that either directly provides this hypercall to the guest or is able to enable the in-kernel hypercall if available. The in-kernel hypercall can be enabled with the use-kvm property, e.g.: qemu-system-ppc64 -device spapr-rng,use-kvm=true For handling the hypercall in QEMU instead, a "RngBackend" is required since the hypercall should provide "good" random data instead of pseudo-random (like from a "simple" library function like rand() or g_random_int()). Since there are multiple RngBackends available, the user must select an appropriate back-end via the "rng" property of the device, e.g.: qemu-system-ppc64 -object rng-random,filename=/dev/hwrng,id=gid0 \ -device spapr-rng,rng=gid0 ... See http://wiki.qemu-project.org/Features-Done/VirtIORNG for other example of specifying RngBackends.

2015-09-23spapr: Enable in-kernel H_SET_MODE handlingAlexey Kardashevskiy
For setting debug watchpoints, sPAPR guests use H_SET_MODE hypercall. The existing QEMU H_SET_MODE handler does not support this but the KVM handler in HV KVM does. However it is not enabled. This enables the in-kernel H_SET_MODE handler which handles: - Completed Instruction Address Breakpoint Register - Watch point 0 registers. The rest is still handled in QEMU.

2015-06-03pseries: Enable in-kernel H_LOGICAL_CI_{LOAD, STORE} implementationsDavid Gibson
qemu currently implements the hypercalls H_LOGICAL_CI_LOAD and H_LOGICAL_CI_STORE as PAPR extensions. These are used by the SLOF firmware for IO, because performing cache inhibited MMIO accesses with the MMU off (real mode) is very awkward on POWER. This approach breaks when SLOF needs to access IO devices implemented within KVM instead of in qemu. The simplest example would be virtio-blk using an iothread, because the iothread / dataplane mechanism relies on an in-kernel implementation of the virtio queue notification MMIO. To fix this, an in-kernel implementation of these hypercalls has been made, (kernel commit 99342cf "kvmppc: Implement H_LOGICAL_CI_{LOAD,STORE} in KVM" however, the hypercalls still need to be enabled from qemu. This performs the necessary calls to do so. It would be nice to provide some warning if we encounter a problematic device with a kernel which doesn't support the new calls. Unfortunately, I can't see a way to detect this case which won't either warn in far too many cases that will probably work, or which is horribly invasive.

2014-07-15spapr: Move RMA memory region registration codeAlexey Kardashevskiy
PPC970 does not support VRMA (virtual RMA) so real memory required for SLOF to execute must be allocated by the KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA ioctl. Later this memory is used as a part of the guest RAM area. The RMA allocating code also registers a memory region for this piece of RAM. We are going to simplify memory regions layout: RMA memory region will be a subregion in the RAM memory region, both starting from zero. This way we will not have to take care of start address alignment for the piece of RAM next to the RMA. This moves memory region business closer to the RAM memory region creation/allocation code. As this is a mechanical patch, no change in behaviour is expected.

2014-06-27spapr_iommu: Make in-kernel TCE table optionalAlexey Kardashevskiy
POWER KVM supports an KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE capability which allows allocating TCE tables in the host kernel memory and handle H_PUT_TCE requests targeted to specific LIOBN (logical bus number) right in the host without switching to QEMU. At the moment this is used for emulated devices only and the handler only puts TCE to the table. If the in-kernel H_PUT_TCE handler finds a LIOBN and corresponding table, it will put a TCE to the table and complete hypercall execution. The user space will not be notified. Upcoming VFIO support is going to use the same sPAPRTCETable device class so KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE is going to be used as well. That means that TCE tables for VFIO are going to be allocated in the host as well. However VFIO operates with real IOMMU tables and simple copying of a TCE to the real hardware TCE table will not work as guest physical to host physical address translation is requited. So until the host kernel gets VFIO support for H_PUT_TCE, we better not to register VFIO's TCE in the host. This adds a place holder for KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_VFIO capability. It is not in upstream yet and being discussed so now it is always false which means that in-kernel VFIO acceleration is not supported. This adds a bool @vfio_accel flag to the sPAPRTCETable device telling that sPAPRTCETable should not try allocating TCE table in the host kernel for VFIO. The flag is false now as at the moment there is no VFIO. This adds an vfio_accel parameter to spapr_tce_new_table(), the semantic is the same. Since there is only emulated PCI and VIO now, the flag is set to false. Upcoming VFIO support will set it to true.

This removes window_size as it is basically a copy of nb_table shifted by SPAPR_TCE_PAGE_SHIFT. As new dynamic DMA windows are going to support windows as big as the entire RAM and this number will be bigger that 32 capacity, we will have to do something about @window_size anyway and removal seems to be the right way to go.

2014-06-16spapr_iommu: Enable multiple TCE requestsAlexey Kardashevskiy
Currently only single TCE entry per request is supported (H_PUT_TCE). However PAPR+ specification allows multiple entry requests such as H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and H_STUFF_TCE. Having less transitions to the host kernel via ioctls, support of these calls can accelerate IOMMU operations. This implements H_STUFF_TCE and H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT. This advertises "multi-tce" capability to the guest if the host kernel supports it (KVM_CAP_SPAPR_MULTITCE) or guest is running in TCG mode.

2014-03-05target-ppc: add PowerPCCPU::cpu_dt_idAlexey Kardashevskiy
Normally CPUState::cpu_index is used to pick the right CPU for various operations. However default consecutive numbering does not always work for POWERPC. These indexes are reflected in /proc/device-tree/cpus/PowerPC,POWER7@XX and used to call KVM VCPU's ioctls. In order to achieve this, kvmppc_fixup_cpu() was introduced. Roughly speaking, it multiplies cpu_index by the number of threads per core. This approach has disadvantages such as: 1. NUMA configuration stays broken after the fixup; 2. CPU-targeted commands from the QEMU Monitor do not work properly as CPU indexes have been fixed and there is no clear way for the user to know what the new CPU indexes are. This introduces a @cpu_dt_id field in the CPUPPCState struct which is initialized from @cpu_index by default and can be fixed later to meet the device tree requirements. This adds an API to handle @cpu_dt_id. This removes kvmppc_fixup_cpu() as it is not more needed, @cpu_dt_id is calculated in ppc_cpu_realize(). This will be used later in machine code.

Since the model list is highly macrofied, keep ppc_def_t for now and save a pointer to it in PowerPCCPUClass. This results in a flat list of subclasses including aliases, to be refined later. Move cpu_ppc_init() to translate_init.c and drop helper.c. Long-term the idea is to turn translate_init.c into a standalone cpu.c. Inline cpu_ppc_usable() into type registration. Split cpu_ppc_register() in two by code movement into the initfn and by turning the remaining part into a realizefn. Move qemu_init_vcpu() call into the new realizefn and adapt create_ppc_opcodes() to return an Error. Change ppc_find_by_pvr() -> ppc_cpu_class_by_pvr(). Change ppc_find_by_name() -> ppc_cpu_class_by_name(). Turn -cpu host into its own subclass.

2012-06-24ppc64: Rudimentary Support for extra page sizes on server CPUsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
More recent Power server chips (i.e. based on the 64 bit hash MMU) support more than just the traditional 4k and 16M page sizes. This can get quite complicated, because which page sizes are supported, which combinations are supported within an MMU segment and how these page sizes are encoded both in the SLB entry and the hash PTE can vary depending on the CPU model (they are not specified by the architecture). In addition the firmware or hypervisor may not permit use of certain page sizes, for various reasons. Whether various page sizes are supported on KVM, for example, depends on whether the PR or HV variant of KVM is in use, and on the page size of the memory backing the guest's RAM. This patch adds information to the CPUState and cpu defs to describe the supported page sizes and encodings. Since TCG does not yet support any extended page sizes, we just set this to NULL in the static CPU definitions, expanding this to the default 4k and 16M page sizes when we initialize the cpu state. When using KVM, however, we instead determine available page sizes using the new KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO call. For old kernels without that call, we use some defaults, with some guesswork which should do the right thing for existing HV and PR implementations. The fallback might not be correct for future versions, but that's ok, because they'll have KVM_PPC_GET_SMMU_INFO.

On target-ppc, our table of CPU types and features encodes the features as found on the hardware, regardless of whether these features are actually usable under TCG or KVM. We already have cases where the information from the cpu table must be fixed up to account for limitations in the emulation method we're using. e.g. TCG does not support the DFP and VSX instructions and KVM needs different numbering of the CPUs in order to tell it the correct thread to core mappings.

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.

2011-10-30pseries: 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.

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 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.

2011-04-08ppce500_mpc8544ds: Fix compile with --enable-debug and --disable-kvmDavid Gibson
When configured with --enable-debug, we compile without optimization. This means that the function mpc8544_copy_soc_cell() in ppce500_mpc8544ds.c is not optimized out, even though it is never called without kvm. That in turn causes a link failure, because it calls the function kvmppc_read_host_property() which is in kvm_ppc.o and therefore not included in a --disable-kvm build. This patch fixes the problem by providing a dummy stub for kvmppc_read_host_property() in kvm_ppc.h when !CONFIG_KVM.

2011-04-01Implement PAPR CRQ hypercallsBen Herrenschmidt
This patch implements the infrastructure and hypercalls necessary for the PAPR specified CRQ (Command Request Queue) mechanism. This general request queueing system is used by many of the PAPR virtual IO devices, including the virtual scsi adapter.

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
On KVM for PPC we need to tell the guest which instructions to use when doing a hypercall. The clean way to do this is to go through an ioctl from userspace and passing it on to the guest using the device tree. So let's do the qemu part here: read out the hypercall and pass it on to the guest's fw_cfg so openBIOS can read it out and expose it again. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
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.
