On a POWER9 host, if a guest runs in pre POWER9 compat mode, it necessarily
uses the hash MMU mode. In this case, we shouldn't advertise radix GTSE in
the ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support DT property as the current code does.
The first reason is that it doesn't make sense, and the second one is that
causes the CAS-negotiated options subsection to be migrated. This breaks
backward migration to QEMU 2.7 and older versions on POWER8 hosts:
qemu-system-ppc64: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device
'spapr'
qemu-system-ppc64: load of migration failed: No such file or directory
This patch hence initialize CPUs a bit earlier so that we can check the
requested compat mode, and don't set OV5_MMU_RADIX_GTSE for power8 and
older.

Current POWER cpus allow for a VRMA, a special mapping which describes a
guest's view of memory when in real mode (MMU off, from the guest's point
of view). Older cpus didn't have that which meant that to support a guest
a special host-contiguous region of memory was needed to give the guest its
Real Mode Area (RMA).
KVM used to provide special calls to allocate a contiguous RMA for those
cases. This was useful in the early days of KVM on Power to allow it to be
tested on PowerPC 970 chips as used in Macintosh G5 machines. Now, those
machines are so old as to be almost irrelevant.
The normal qemu deprecation process would require this to be marked
deprecated then removed in 2 releases. However, this can only be used
with corresponding support in the host kernel - which was dropped
years ago (in c17b98cf "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Remove code for PPC970
processors" of 2014-12-03 to be precise). Therefore it should be ok
to drop this immediately.
Just to be clear this only affects *KVM HV* guests with PowerPC 970,
and those already require an ancient host kernel. TCG and KVM PR
guests with PowerPC 970 should still work.

Some older machine types create more ICPs than needed. We hence
need to register up to xics_max_server_number() dummy ICPs to
accomodate the migration of these machine types.
Recent VSMT rework changed xics_max_server_number() to return
DIV_ROUND_UP(max_cpus * spapr->vsmt, smp_threads)
instead of
DIV_ROUND_UP(max_cpus * kvmppc_smt_threads(), smp_threads);
The change is okay but it requires spapr->vsmt to be set, which
isn't the case with the current code. This causes the formula to
return zero and we don't create dummy ICPs. This breaks migration
of older guests as reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1549087
The dummy ICP workaround doesn't really have a dependency on XICS
itself. But it does depend on proper VCPU id numbering and it must
be applied before creating vCPUs (ie, creating real ICPs). So this
patch moves the workaround to spapr_init_cpus(), which already
assumes VSMT to be set.

Commit 5d0fb1508e "spapr: consolidate the VCPU id numbering logic
in a single place" introduced a helper to detect thread0 of a virtual
core based on its VCPU id. This is used to create CPU core nodes in
the DT, but it is broken in TCG.
$ qemu-system-ppc64 -nographic -accel tcg -machine dumpdtb=dtb.bin \
-smp cores=16,maxcpus=16,threads=1
$ dtc -f -O dts dtb.bin | grep POWER8
PowerPC,POWER8@0 {
PowerPC,POWER8@8 {
instead of the expected 16 cores that we get with KVM:
$ dtc -f -O dts dtb.bin | grep POWER8
PowerPC,POWER8@0 {
PowerPC,POWER8@8 {
PowerPC,POWER8@10 {
PowerPC,POWER8@18 {

PowerPC,POWER8@58 {
PowerPC,POWER8@60 {
PowerPC,POWER8@68 {
PowerPC,POWER8@70 {
PowerPC,POWER8@78 {
This happens because spapr_get_vcpu_id() maps VCPU ids to
cs->cpu_index in TCG mode. This confuses the code in
spapr_is_thread0_in_vcore(), since it assumes thread0 VCPU
ids to have a spapr->vsmt spacing.
spapr_get_vcpu_id(cpu) % spapr->vsmt == 0
Actually, there's no real reason to expose cs->cpu_index instead
of the VCPU id, since we also generate it with TCG. Also we already
set it explicitly in spapr_set_vcpu_id(), so there's no real reason
either to call kvm_arch_vcpu_id() with KVM.
This patch unifies spapr_get_vcpu_id() to always return the computed
VCPU id both in TCG and KVM. This is one step forward towards KVM<->TCG
migration.

Several places in the code need to calculate a VCPU id:
(cpu_index / smp_threads) * spapr->vsmt + cpu_index % smp_threads
(core_id / smp_threads) * spapr->vsmt (1 user)
index * spapr->vsmt (2 users)
or guess that the VCPU id of a given VCPU is the first thread of a virtual
core:
index % spapr->vsmt != 0
Even if the numbering logic isn't that complex, it is rather fragile to
have these assumptions open-coded in several places. FWIW this was
proved with recent issues related to VSMT.
This patch moves the VCPU id formula to a single function to be called
everywhere the code needs to compute one. It also adds an helper to

The VCPU ids are currently computed and assigned to each individual
CPU threads in spapr_cpu_core_realize(). But the numbering logic
of VCPU ids is actually a machine-level concept, and many places
in hw/ppc/spapr.c also have to compute VCPU ids out of CPU indexes.
The current formula used in spapr_cpu_core_realize() is:
vcpu_id = (cc->core_id * spapr->vsmt / smp_threads) + i
where:
cc->core_id is a multiple of smp_threads
cpu_index = cc->core_id + i
0 <= i < smp_threads
So we have:
cpu_index % smp_threads == i
cc->core_id / smp_threads == cpu_index / smp_threads
hence:
vcpu_id =
(cpu_index / smp_threads) * spapr->vsmt + cpu_index % smp_threads;
This formula was used before VSMT at the time VCPU ids where computed
at the target emulation level. It has the advantage of being useable
to derive a VPCU id out of a CPU index only. It is fitted for all the
places where the machine code has to compute a VCPU id.
This patch introduces an accessor to set the VCPU id in a PowerPCCPU object
using the above formula. It is a first step to consolidate all the VCPU id
logic in a single place.

Since the introduction of VSMT in 2.11, the spacing of VCPU ids
between cores is controllable through a machine property instead
of being only dictated by the SMT mode of the host:
cpu->vcpu_id = (cc->core_id * spapr->vsmt / smp_threads) + i
Until recently, the machine code would try to change the SMT mode
of the host to be equal to VSMT or exit. This allowed the rest of
the code to assume that kvmppc_smt_threads() == spapr->vsmt is
always true.
Recent commit "8904e5a75005 spapr: Adjust default VSMT value for
better migration compatibility" relaxed the rule. If the VSMT
mode cannot be set in KVM for some reasons, but the requested
CPU topology is compatible with the current SMT mode, then we
let the guest run with kvmppc_smt_threads() != spapr->vsmt.
This breaks quite a few places in the code, in particular when
calculating DRC indexes.
This is what happens on a POWER host with subcores-per-core=2 (ie,
supports up to SMT4) when passing the following topology:
-smp threads=4,maxcpus=16 \
-device host-spapr-cpu-core,core-id=4,id=core1 \
-device host-spapr-cpu-core,core-id=8,id=core2
qemu-system-ppc64: warning: Failed to set KVM's VSMT mode to 8 (errno -22)
This is expected since KVM is limited to SMT4, but the guest is started
anyway because this topology can run on SMT4 even with a VSMT8 spacing.
But when we look at the DT, things get nastier:
cpus {
...
ibm,drc-indexes = <0x4 0x10000000 0x10000004 0x10000008 0x1000000c>;
This means that we have the following association:
CPU core device | DRC | VCPU id
-----------------+------------+---------
boot core | 0x10000000 | 0
core1 | 0x10000004 | 4
core2 | 0x10000008 | 8
core3 | 0x1000000c | 12
But since the spacing of VCPU ids is 8, the DRC for core1 points to a
VCPU that doesn't exist, the DRC for core2 points to the first VCPU of
core1 and and so on...
...
PowerPC,POWER8@0 {
...
ibm,my-drc-index = <0x10000000>;
...
};
PowerPC,POWER8@8 {
...
ibm,my-drc-index = <0x10000008>;
...
};
PowerPC,POWER8@10 {
...
No ibm,my-drc-index property for this core since 0x10000010 doesn't
exist in ibm,drc-indexes above.
...
};
};
...
interrupt-controller {
...
ibm,interrupt-server-ranges = <0x0 0x10>;
With a spacing of 8, the highest VCPU id for the given topology should be:
16 * 8 / 4 = 32 and not 16
...
linux,phandle = <0x7e7323b8>;
interrupt-controller;
};
And CPU hot-plug/unplug is broken:
(qemu) device_del core1
pseries-hotplug-cpu: Cannot find CPU (drc index 10000004) to remove
(qemu) device_del core2
cpu 4 (hwid 8) Ready to die...
cpu 5 (hwid 9) Ready to die...
cpu 6 (hwid 10) Ready to die...
cpu 7 (hwid 11) Ready to die...
These are the VCPU ids of core1 actually
(qemu) device_add host-spapr-cpu-core,core-id=12,id=core3
(qemu) device_del core3
pseries-hotplug-cpu: Cannot find CPU (drc index 1000000c) to remove

Commit 51f84465dd changed the compatility mode setting logic:
- machine reset only sets compatibility mode for the boot CPU
- compatibility mode is set for other CPUs when they are put online
by the guest with the "start-cpu" RTAS call
This causes a regression for machines started with max-compat-cpu:
the device tree nodes related to secondary CPU cores contain wrong
"cpu-version" and "ibm,pa-features" values, as shown below.
Guest started on a POWER8 host with:
-smp cores=2 -machine pseries,max-cpu-compat=compat7
ibm,pa-features = [18 00 f6 3f c7 c0 80 f0 80 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 80 00 80 00 80 00 00 00];
cpu-version = <0x4d0200>;
^^^
second CPU core
ibm,pa-features = <0x600f63f 0xc70080c0>;
cpu-version = <0xf000003>;
^^^
boot CPU core
The second core is advertised in raw POWER8 mode. This happens because
CAS assumes all CPUs to have the same compatibility mode. Since the
boot CPU already has the requested compatibility mode, the CAS code
does not set it for the secondary one, and exposes the bogus device
tree properties in in the CAS response to the guest.
A similar situation is observed when hot-plugging a CPU core. The
related device tree properties are generated and exposed to guest
with the "ibm,configure-connector" RTAS before "start-cpu" is called.
The CPU core is advertised to the guest in raw mode as well.
It both cases, it boils down to the fact that "start-cpu" happens too
late. This can be fixed globally by propagating the compatibility mode
of the boot CPU to the other CPUs during reset. For this to work, the
compatibility mode of the boot CPU must be set before the machine code
actually resets all CPUs.
It is not needed to set the compatibility mode in "start-cpu" anymore,
so the code is dropped.

which decouples configuration data from CPU instances that
are created using that data.
Also later it would be used for enabling early cpu to numa node
configuration at runtime qmp_query_hotpluggable_cpus() should
provide a list of available cpu slots at early stage,
before machine_init() is called and the 1st cpu is created,
so that mgmt might be able to call it and use output to set
numa mapping.
Use MachineClass::possible_cpu_arch_ids() callback to set
cpu type info, along with the rest of possible cpu properties,
to let machine define which cpu type* will be used.
* for SPAPR it will be a spapr core type and for ARM/s390x/x86
a respective descendant of CPUClass.
Move parse_numa_opts() in vl.c after cpu_model is parsed into
cpu_type so that possible_cpu_arch_ids() would know which
cpu_type to use during layout initialization.

The existing has_dynamic_sysbus flag makes the machine accept
every user-creatable sysbus device type on the command-line.
Replace it with a list of allowed device types, so machines can
easily accept some sysbus devices while rejecting others.
To keep exactly the same behavior as before, the existing
has_dynamic_sysbus=true assignments are replaced with a
TYPE_SYS_BUS_DEVICE entry on the allowed list. Other patches
will replace the TYPE_SYS_BUS_DEVICE entries with more specific
lists of devices.

fa98fbfc "PC: KVM: Support machine option to set VSMT mode" introduced the
"vsmt" parameter for the pseries machine type, which controls the spacing
of the vcpu ids of thread 0 for each virtual core. This was done to bring
some consistency and stability to how that was done, while still allowing
backwards compatibility for migration and otherwise.
The default value we used for vsmt was set to the max of the host's
advertised default number of threads and the number of vthreads per vcore
in the guest. This was done to continue running without extra parameters
on older KVM versions which don't allow the VSMT value to be changed.
Unfortunately, even that smaller than before leakage of host configuration
into guest visible configuration still breaks things. Specifically a guest
with 4 (or less) vthread/vcore will get a different vsmt value when
running on a POWER8 (vsmt==8) and POWER9 (vsmt==4) host. That means the
vcpu ids don't line up so you can't migrate between them, though you should
be able to.
Long term we really want to make vsmt == smp_threads for sufficiently
new machine types. However, that means that qemu will then require a
sufficiently recent KVM (one which supports changing VSMT) - that's still
not widely enough deployed to be really comfortable to do.
In the meantime we need some default that will work as often as
possible. This patch changes that default to 8 in all circumstances.
This does change guest visible behaviour (including for existing
machine versions) for many cases - just not the most common/important
case.
Following is case by case justification for why this is still the least
worst option. Note that any of the old behaviours can still be duplicated
after this patch, it's just that it requires manual intervention by
setting the vsmt property on the command line.
KVM HV on POWER8 host:
This is the overwhelmingly common case in production setups, and is
unchanged by design. POWER8 hosts will advertise a default VSMT mode
of 8, and > 8 vthreads/vcore isn't permitted
KVM HV on POWER7 host:
Will break, but POWER7s allowing KVM were never released to the public.
KVM HV on POWER9 host:
Not yet released to the public, breaking this now will reduce other
breakage later.
KVM HV on PowerPC 970:
Will theoretically break it, but it was barely supported to begin with
and already required various user visible hacks to work. Also so old
that I just don't care.
TCG:
This is the nastiest one; it means migration of TCG guests (without
manual vsmt setting) will break. Since TCG is rarely used in production
I think this is worth it for the other benefits. It does also remove
one more barrier to TCG<->KVM migration which could be interesting for
debugging applications.
KVM PR:
As with TCG, this will break migration of existing configurations,
without adding extra manual vsmt options. As with TCG, it is rare in
production so I think the benefits outweigh breakages.

At present if we require a vsmt mode that's not equal to the kernel's
default, and the kernel doesn't let us change it (e.g. because it's an old
kernel without support) then we always fail.
But in fact we can cope with the kernel having a different vsmt as long as
a) it's >= the actual number of vthreads/vcore (so that guest threads
that are supposed to be on the same core act like it)
b) it's a submultiple of the requested vsmt mode (so that guest threads
spaced by the vsmt value will act like they're on different cores)
Allowing this case gives us a bit more freedom to adjust the vsmt behaviour
without breaking existing cases.

We recently had some discussions that were sidetracked for a while, because
nearly everyone misapprehended the purpose of the 'max_threads' field in
the compatiblity modes table. It's all about guest expectations, not host
expectations or support (that's handled elsewhere).
In an attempt to avoid a repeat of that confusion, rename the field to
'max_vthreads' and add an explanatory comment.

Currently spapr_caps are tied to boolean values (on or off). This patch
reworks the caps so that they can have any uint8 value. This allows more
capabilities with various values to be represented in the same way
internally. Capabilities are numbered in ascending order. The internal
representation of capability values is an array of uint8s in the
sPAPRMachineState, indexed by capability number.
Capabilities can have their own name, description, options, getter and
setter functions, type and allow functions. They also each have their own
section in the migration stream. Capabilities are only migrated if they
were explictly set on the command line, with the assumption that
otherwise the default will match.
On migration we ensure that the capability value on the destination
is greater than or equal to the capability value from the source. So
long at this remains the case then the migration is considered
compatible and allowed to continue.
This patch implements generic getter and setter functions for boolean
capabilities. It also converts the existings cap-htm, cap-vsx and
cap-dfp capabilities to this new format.

Decimal Floating Point has been available on POWER7 and later (server)
cpus. However, it can be disabled on the hypervisor, meaning that it's
not available to guests.
We currently handle this by conditionally advertising DFP support in the
device tree depending on whether the guest CPU model supports it - which
can also depend on what's allowed in the host for -cpu host. That can lead
to confusion on migration, since host properties are silently affecting
guest visible properties.
This patch handles it by treating it as an optional capability for the
pseries machine type.

We currently have some conditionals in the spapr device tree code to decide
whether or not to advertise the availability of the VMX (aka Altivec) and
VSX vector extensions to the guest, based on whether the guest cpu has
those features.
This can lead to confusion and subtle failures on migration, since it makes
a guest visible change based only on host capabilities. We now have a
better mechanism for this, in spapr capabilities flags, which explicitly
depend on user options rather than host capabilities.
Rework the advertisement of VSX and VMX based on a new VSX capability. We
no longer bother with a conditional for VMX support, because every CPU
that's ever been supported by the pseries machine type supports VMX.
NOTE: Some userspace distributions (e.g. RHEL7.4) already rely on
availability of VSX in libc, so using cap-vsx=off may lead to a fatal
SIGILL in init.

Now that the "pseries" machine type implements optional capabilities (well,
one so far) there's the possibility of having different capabilities
available at either end of a migration. Although arguably a user error,
it would be nice to catch this situation and fail as gracefully as we can.
This adds code to migrate the capabilities flags. These aren't pulled
directly into the destination's configuration since what the user has
specified on the destination command line should take precedence. However,
they are checked against the destination capabilities.
If the source was using a capability which is absent on the destination,
we fail the migration, since that could easily cause a guest crash or other
bad behaviour. If the source lacked a capability which is present on the
destination we warn, but allow the migration to proceed.

This adds an spapr capability bit for Hardware Transactional Memory. It is
enabled by default for pseries-2.11 and earlier machine types. with POWER8
or later CPUs (as it must be, since earlier qemu versions would implicitly
allow it). However it is disabled by default for the latest pseries-2.12
machine type.
This means that with the latest machine type, HTM will not be available,
regardless of CPU, unless it is explicitly enabled on the command line.
That change is made on the basis that:
* This way running with -M pseries,accel=tcg will start with whatever cpu
and will provide the same guest visible model as with accel=kvm.
- More specifically, this means existing make check tests don't have
to be modified to use cap-htm=off in order to run with TCG
* We hope to add a new "HTM without suspend" feature in the not too
distant future which could work on both POWER8 and POWER9 cpus, and
could be enabled by default.
* Best guesses suggest that future POWER cpus may well only support the
HTM-without-suspend model, not the (frankly, horribly overcomplicated)
POWER8 style HTM with suspend.
* Anecdotal evidence suggests problems with HTM being enabled when it
wasn't wanted are more common than being missing when it was.

Because PAPR is a paravirtual environment access to certain CPU (or other)
facilities can be blocked by the hypervisor. PAPR provides ways to
advertise in the device tree whether or not those features are available to
the guest.
In some places we automatically determine whether to make a feature
available based on whether our host can support it, in most cases this is
based on limitations in the available KVM implementation.
Although we correctly advertise this to the guest, it means that host
factors might make changes to the guest visible environment which is bad:
as well as generaly reducing reproducibility, it means that a migration
between different host environments can easily go bad.
We've mostly gotten away with it because the environments considered mature
enough to be well supported (basically, KVM on POWER8) have had consistent
feature availability. But, it's still not right and some limitations on
POWER9 is going to make it more of an issue in future.
This introduces an infrastructure for defining "sPAPR capabilities". These
are set by default based on the machine version, masked by the capabilities
of the chosen cpu, but can be overriden with machine properties.
The intention is at reset time we verify that the requested capabilities
can be supported on the host (considering TCG, KVM and/or host cpu
limitations). If not we simply fail, rather than silently modifying the
advertised featureset to the guest.
This does mean that certain configurations that "worked" may now fail, but
such configurations were already more subtly broken.
