* KVM: PPC: e500: Add shadow PID supportLiu Yu2011-07-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dynamically assign host PIDs to guest PIDs, splitting each guest PID into multiple host (shadow) PIDs based on kernel/user and MSR[IS/DS]. Use both PID0 and PID1 so that the shadow PIDs for the right mode can be selected, that correspond both to guest TID = zero and guest TID = guest PID. This allows us to significantly reduce the frequency of needing to invalidate the entire TLB. When the guest mode or PID changes, we just update the host PID0/PID1. And since the allocation of shadow PIDs is global, multiple guests can share the TLB without conflict. Note that KVM does not yet support the guest setting PID1 or PID2 to a value other than zero. This will need to be fixed for nested KVM to work. Until then, we enforce the requirement for guest PID1/PID2 to stay zero by failing the emulation if the guest tries to set them to something else.

* KVM: PPC: e500: Save/restore SPE stateScott Wood2011-07-121-14/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is done lazily. The SPE save will be done only if the guest has used SPE since the last preemption or heavyweight exit. Restore will be done only on demand, when enabling MSR_SPE in the shadow MSR, in response to an SPE fault or mtmsr emulation. For SPEFSCR, Linux already switches it on context switch (non-lazily), so the only remaining bit is to save it between qemu and the guest.

* KVM: PPC: Implement level interrupts for BookEAlexander Graf2010-10-241-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | BookE also wants to support level based interrupts, so let's implement all the necessary logic there. We need to trick a bit here because the irqprios are 1:1 assigned to architecture defined values. But since there is some space left there, we can just pick a random one and move it later on - it's internal anyways. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
* KVM: PPC: Convert MSR to shared pageAlexander Graf2010-10-241-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: ppc: Add extra E500 exceptionsHollis Blanchard2009-03-241-12/+18

* KVM: ppc: split out common Book E instruction emulationHollis Blanchard2009-03-241-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | The Book E code will be shared with e500. I've left PID in kvmppc_core_emulate_op() just so that we don't need to move kvmppc_set_pid() right now. Once we have the e500 implementation, we can probably share that too. Signed-off-by: Hollis Blanchard <hollisb@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: ppc: Implement in-kernel exit timing statisticsHollis Blanchard2008-12-311-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Existing KVM statistics are either just counters (kvm_stat) reported for KVM generally or trace based aproaches like kvm_trace. For KVM on powerpc we had the need to track the timings of the different exit types. While this could be achieved parsing data created with a kvm_trace extension this adds too much overhead (at least on embedded PowerPC) slowing down the workloads we wanted to measure. Therefore this patch adds a in-kernel exit timing statistic to the powerpc kvm code. These statistic is available per vm&vcpu under the kvm debugfs directory. As this statistic is low, but still some overhead it can be enabled via a .config entry and should be off by default. Since this patch touched all powerpc kvm_stat code anyway this code is now merged and simplified together with the exit timing statistic code (still working with exit timing disabled in .config).

* KVM: ppc: optimize irq delivery pathHollis Blanchard2008-12-311-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In kvmppc_deliver_interrupt is just one case left in the switch and it is a rare one (less than 8%) when looking at the exit numbers. Therefore we can at least drop the switch/case and if an if. I inserted an unlikely too, but that's open for discussion. In kvmppc_can_deliver_interrupt all frequent cases are in the default case. I know compilers are smart but we can make it easier for them. By writing down all options and removing the default case combined with the fact that ithe values are constants 0..15 should allow the compiler to write an easy jump table. Modifying kvmppc_can_deliver_interrupt pointed me to the fact that gcc seems to be unable to reduce priority_exception[x] to a build time constant. Therefore I changed the usage of the translation arrays in the interrupt delivery path completely. It is now using priority without translation to irq on the full irq delivery path. To be able to do that ivpr regs are stored by their priority now. Additionally the decision made in kvmppc_can_deliver_interrupt is already sufficient to get the value of interrupt_msr_mask[x]. Therefore we can replace the 16x4byte array used here with a single 4byte variable (might still be one miss, but the chance to find this in cache should be better than the right entry of the whole array).

* KVM: ppc: refactor instruction emulation into generic and core-specific piecesHollis Blanchard2008-12-311-0/+39
Cores provide 3 emulation hooks, implemented for example in the new 4xx_emulate.c: kvmppc_core_emulate_op kvmppc_core_emulate_mtspr kvmppc_core_emulate_mfspr Strictly speaking the last two aren't necessary, but provide for more informative error reporting ("unknown SPR"). Long term I'd like to have instruction decoding autogenerated from tables of opcodes, and that way we could aggregate universal, Book E, and core-specific instructions more easily and without redundant switch statements.
