* powerpc/64: Fix watchdog configuration regressionsNicholas Piggin2017-08-311-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a couple more bits of fallout from the new hard lockup watchdog patch. It restores the required hw_nmi_get_sample_period() function for the perf watchdog, and removes some function declarations on 64e that are only defined for 64s. This fixes the 64e build when the hardlockup detector is enabled. It restores the default behaviour of disabling the perf watchdog, and also fixes disabling the 64s watchdog when running as a guest.

* powerpc/64s: implement arch-specific hardlockup watchdogNicholas Piggin2017-07-121-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement an arch-speicfic watchdog rather than use the perf-based hardlockup detector. The new watchdog takes the soft-NMI directly, rather than going through perf. Perf interrupts are to be made maskable in future, so that would prevent the perf detector from working in those regions. Additionally, implement a SMP based detector where all CPUs watch one another by pinging a shared cpumask. This is because powerpc Book3S does not have a true periodic local NMI, but some platforms do implement a true NMI IPI. If a CPU is stuck with interrupts hard disabled, the soft-NMI watchdog does not work, but the SMP watchdog will. Even on platforms without a true NMI IPI to get a good trace from the stuck CPU, other CPUs will notice the lockup sufficiently to report it and panic.

Changes include: - a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB support and more - ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin) - initial POWER8 and little-endian host support - support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets - pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware - for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still, we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have always worked). And some optimizations too. The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (203 commits) KVM: add missing cleanup_srcu_struct KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Rework SLB switching code KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Use SLB entry 0 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix machine check delivery to guest KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Work around POWER8 performance monitor bugs KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make sure we don't miss dirty pages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix dirty map for hugepages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Put huge-page HPTEs in rmap chain for base address KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix check for running inside guest in global_invalidates() KVM: PPC: Book3S: Move KVM_REG_PPC_WORT to an unused register number KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add ONE_REG register names that were missed KVM: PPC: Add CAP to indicate hcall fixes KVM: PPC: MPIC: Reset IRQ source private members KVM: PPC: Graciously fail broken LE hypercalls PPC: ePAPR: Fix hypercall on LE guest KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Remove open coded make_dsisr in alignment handler KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Always use the saved DAR value PPC: KVM: Make NX bit available with magic page KVM: PPC: Disable NX for old magic page using guests KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: HV: Add mixed page-size support for guest ...
| * PPC: KVM: Make NX bit available with magic pageAlexander Graf2014-05-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because old kernels enable the magic page and then choke on NXed trampoline code we have to disable NX by default in KVM when we use the magic page. However, since commit b18db0b8 we have successfully fixed that and can now leave NX enabled, so tell the hypervisor about this. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
* | KVM guest: Make pv trampoline code executableAlexander Graf2014-04-291-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | Our PV guest patching code assembles chunks of instructions on the fly when it encounters more complicated instructions to hijack. These instructions need to live in a section that we don't mark as non-executable, as otherwise we fault when jumping there. Right now we put it into the .bss section where it automatically gets marked as non-executable. Add a check to the NX setting function to ensure that we leave these particular pages executable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows additional registers to be accessed by the guest in PR-mode KVM without trapping. SPRG4-7 are readable from userspace. On booke, KVM will sync these registers when it enters the guest, so that accesses from guest userspace will work. The guest kernel, OTOH, must consistently use either the real registers or the shared area between exits. This also applies to the already-paravirted SPRG3. On non-booke, it's not clear to what extent SPRG4-7 are supported (they're not architected for book3s, but exist on at least some classic chips). They are copied in the get/set regs ioctls, but I do not see any non-booke emulation. I also do not see any syncing with real registers (in PR-mode) including the user-readable SPRG3.

* KVM: PPC: Generic KVM PV guest supportAlexander Graf2010-10-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | We have all the hypervisor pieces in place now, but the guest parts are still missing. This patch implements basic awareness of KVM when running Linux as guest. It doesn't do anything with it yet though. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: PPC: Implement hypervisor interfaceAlexander Graf2010-10-241-0/+68
To communicate with KVM directly we need to plumb some sort of interface between the guest and KVM. Usually those interfaces use hypercalls. This hypercall implementation is described in the last patch of the series in a special documentation file. Please read that for further information. This patch implements stubs to handle KVM PPC hypercalls on the host and guest side alike. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
