[agraf: remove in-kernel irqchip code]
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

At present, using the hypervisor aware Book3S-HV KVM will only work
with qemu on POWER7 CPUs. PPC970 CPUs also have hypervisor

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

Alex Graf has already made qemu support KVM for the pseries machine

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

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.

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.

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.

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
