We are getting low on cpu feature bits. So rather than add a separate bit for
every new Power8 feature, add a bit for arch 2.07 server catagory and use that
instead.
Hijack the value we had for BCTAR, but swap the value with CFAR so that all the
ARCH defines are together.
Note we don't touch CPU_FTR_TM, because it is conditionally enabled if
the kernel is built with TM support.

We look at both the segment base page size and actual page size and store
the pte-lp-encodings in an array per base page size.
We also update all relevant functions to take actual page size argument
so that we can use the correct PTE LP encoding in HPTE. This should also
get the basic Multiple Page Size per Segment (MPSS) support. This is needed
to enable THP on ppc64.

We allocate one page for the last level of linux page table. With THP and
large page size of 16MB, that would mean we are wasting large part
of that page. To map 16MB area, we only need a PTE space of 2K with 64K
page size. This patch reduce the space wastage by sharing the page
allocated for the last level of linux page table with multiple pmd
entries. We call these smaller chunks PTE page fragments and allocated
page, PTE page.
In order to support systems which doesn't have 64K HPTE support, we also
add another 2K to PTE page fragment. The second half of the PTE fragments
is used for storing slot and secondary bit information of an HPTE. With this
we now have a 4K PTE fragment.
We use a simple approach to share the PTE page. On allocation, we bump the
PTE page refcount to 16 and share the PTE page with the next 16 pte alloc
request. This should help in the node locality of the PTE page fragment,
assuming that the immediate pte alloc request will mostly come from the
same NUMA node. We don't try to reuse the freed PTE page fragment. Hence
we could be waisting some space.

This make one PMD cover 16MB range. That helps in easier implementation of THP
on power. THP core code make use of one pmd entry to track the hugepage and
the range mapped by a single pmd entry should be equal to the hugepage size
supported by the hardware.
This also switch PGD to cover 16GB. That is needed so that we can simplify the

format
We will be switching PMD_SHIFT to 24 bits to facilitate THP impmenetation.
With PMD_SHIFT set to 24, we now have 16MB huge pages allocated at PGD level.
That means with 32 bit process we cannot allocate normal pages at
all, because we cover the entire address space with one pgd entry. Fix this
by switching to a new page table format for hugepages. With the new page table
format for 16GB and 16MB hugepages we won't allocate hugepage directory. Instead
we encode the PTE information directly at the directory level. This forces 16MB
hugepage at PMD level. This will also make the page take walk much simpler later
when we add the THP support.
With the new table format we have 4 cases for pgds and pmds:
(1) invalid (all zeroes)
(2) pointer to next table, as normal; bottom 6 bits == 0
(3) leaf pte for huge page, bottom two bits != 00
(4) hugepd pointer, bottom two bits == 00, next 4 bits indicate size of table

With PGD_INDEX_SIZE set to 12 the existing macro doesn't work. Fix it to
use PTRS_PER_PGD
The idea originally was to have one more bit in the result of
pgd_index() than PGD_INDEX_SIZE, so that if one had an address
corresponding to the last PGD entry, and then incremented that address
by PGD_SIZE, and took pgd_index() of that, you wouldn't end up with
zero. The commit that introduced that dates back to 2002, and the
code that was sensitive to that edge case has long since been
refactored (several times), so there is no need for it these days.

As all other architectures have been converted to use vm_unmapped_area(),
we are about to retire the free_area_cache.
This change simply removes the use of that cache in
slice_get_unmapped_area(), which will most certainly have a
performance cost. Next one will convert that function to use the
vm_unmapped_area() infrastructure and regain the performance.

Commit abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
introduced another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on
s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires
replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
huge_pte_xxx version.
This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change
will be a no-op for those architectures.

This adds the ability for userspace to save and restore the state
of the XICS interrupt presentation controllers (ICPs) via the
KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG interface. Since there is one ICP per vcpu, we
simply define a new 64-bit register in the ONE_REG space for the ICP
state. The state includes the CPU priority setting, the pending IPI
priority, and the priority and source number of any pending external
interrupt.

the specified interrupt's priority in its saved_priority field and
sets the priority to 0xff (the least favoured value). ibm,int-on
restores the saved_priority to the priority field, and ibm,set-xive
sets both the priority and the saved_priority to the specified

This streamlines our handling of external interrupts that come in
while we're in the guest. First, when waking up a hardware thread
that was napping, we split off the "napping due to H_CEDE" case
earlier, and use the code that handles an external interrupt (0x500)
in the guest to handle that too. Secondly, the code that handles
those external interrupts now checks if any other thread is exiting
to the host before bouncing an external interrupt to the guest, and
also checks that there is actually an external interrupt pending for
the guest before setting the LPCR MER bit (mediated external request).
This also makes sure that we clear the "ceded" flag when we handle a
wakeup from cede in real mode, and fixes a potential infinite loop
in kvmppc_run_vcpu() which can occur if we ever end up with the ceded
flag set but MSR[EE] off.

Currently, we wake up a CPU by sending a host IPI with
smp_send_reschedule() to thread 0 of that core, which will take all
threads out of the guest, and cause them to re-evaluate their
interrupt status on the way back in.
This adds a mechanism to differentiate real host IPIs from IPIs sent
by KVM for guest threads to poke each other, in order to target the
guest threads precisely when possible and avoid that global switch of
the core to host state.
We then use this new facility in the in-kernel XICS code.

This adds in-kernel emulation of the XICS (eXternal Interrupt
Controller Specification) interrupt controller specified by PAPR, for
both HV and PR KVM guests.
The XICS emulation supports up to 1048560 interrupt sources.
Interrupt source numbers below 16 are reserved; 0 is used to mean no
interrupt and 2 is used for IPIs. Internally these are represented in
blocks of 1024, called ICS (interrupt controller source) entities, but
that is not visible to userspace.
Each vcpu gets one ICP (interrupt controller presentation) entity,
used to store the per-vcpu state such as vcpu priority, pending
interrupt state, IPI request, etc.
This does not include any API or any way to connect vcpus to their
ICP state; that will be added in later patches.
This is based on an initial implementation by Michael Ellerman

For pseries machine emulation, in order to move the interrupt
controller code to the kernel, we need to intercept some RTAS
calls in the kernel itself. This adds an infrastructure to allow
in-kernel handlers to be registered for RTAS services by name.
A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN, then allows userspace to
associate token values with those service names. Then, when the
guest requests an RTAS service with one of those token values, it
will be handled by the relevant in-kernel handler rather than being
passed up to userspace as at present.

Enabling this capability connects the vcpu to the designated in-kernel

for flexibility, but the main benefit at the moment is that it

care about ordering between irqchip creation and vcpu creation.

At present, the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl doesn't report modifications
done by the host to the virtual processor areas (VPAs) and dispatch
trace logs (DTLs) registered by the guest. This is because those
modifications are done either in real mode or in the host kernel
context, and in neither case does the access go through the guest's
HPT, and thus no change (C) bit gets set in the guest's HPT.
However, the changes done by the host do need to be tracked so that
the modified pages get transferred when doing live migration. In
order to track these modifications, this adds a dirty flag to the
struct representing the VPA/DTL areas, and arranges to set the flag
when the VPA/DTL gets modified by the host. Then, when we are
collecting the dirty log, we also check the dirty flags for the
VPA and DTL for each vcpu and set the relevant bit in the dirty log
if necessary. Doing this also means we now need to keep track of
the guest physical address of the VPA/DTL areas.
So as not to lose track of modifications to a VPA/DTL area when it gets
unregistered, or when a new area gets registered in its place, we need
to transfer the dirty state to the rmap chain. This adds code to
kvmppc_unpin_guest_page() to do that if the area was dirty. To simplify
that code, we now require that all VPA, DTL and SLB shadow buffer areas
fit within a single host page. Guests already comply with this
requirement because pHyp requires that these areas not cross a 4k
boundary.

At present, the code that determines whether a HPT entry has changed,
and thus needs to be sent to userspace when it is copying the HPT,
doesn't consider a hardware update to the reference and change bits
(R and C) in the HPT entries to constitute a change that needs to
be sent to userspace. This adds code to check for changes in R and C
when we are scanning the HPT to find changed entries, and adds code
to set the changed flag for the HPTE when we update the R and C bits
in the guest view of the HPTE.
Since we now need to set the HPTE changed flag in book3s_64_mmu_hv.c
as well as book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c, we move the note_hpte_modification()
function into kvm_book3s_64.h.
Current Linux guest kernels don't use the hardware updates of R and C
in the HPT, so this change won't affect them. Linux (or other) kernels
might in future want to use the R and C bits and have them correctly
transferred across when a guest is migrated, so it is better to correct
this deficiency.

A new PMU flag PPMU_BHRB would indicate presence of BHRB feature.

This patch adds new POWER8 instruction encoding for reading
and clearing Branch History Rolling Buffer entries. The new
instruction 'mfbhrbe' (move from branch history rolling buffer
entry) is used to read BHRB buffer entries and instruction
'clrbhrb' (clear branch history rolling buffer) is used to
clear the entire buffer. The instruction 'clrbhrb' has straight
forward encoding. But the instruction encoding format for
reading the BHRB entries is like 'mfbhrbe RT, BHRBE' where it
takes two arguments, i.e the index for the BHRB buffer entry to
read and a general purpose register to put the value which was
read from the buffer entry.

On power8 we have a new SIER (Sampled Instruction Event Register), which
captures information about instructions when we have random sampling
enabled.
Add support for loading the SIER into pt_regs, overloading regs->dar.
Also set the new NO_SIPR flag in regs->result if we don't have SIPR.
Update regs_sihv/sipr() to look for SIPR/SIHV in SIER.

In perf_ip_adjust() we potentially use the MMCRA[SLOT] field to adjust
the reported IP of a sampled instruction.
Currently the logic is written so that if the backend does NOT have
the PPMU_ALT_SIPR flag set then we assume MMCRA[SLOT] exists.
However on power8 we do not want to set ALT_SIPR (it's in a third
location), and we also do not have MMCRA[SLOT].
So add a new flag which only indicates whether MMCRA[SLOT] exists.
Naively we'd set it on everything except power6/7, because they set
ALT_SIPR, and we've reversed the polarity of the flag. But it's more
complicated than that.
mpc7450 is 32-bit, and uses its own version of perf_ip_adjust()
which doesn't use MMCRA[SLOT], so it doesn't need the new flag set and
the behaviour is unchanged.
PPC970 (and I assume power4) don't have MMCRA[SLOT], so shouldn't have
the new flag set. This is a behaviour change on those cpus, though we
were probably getting lucky and the bits in question were 0.
power5 and power5+ set the new flag, behaviour unchanged.
power6 & power7 do not set the new flag, behaviour unchanged.

The EOI handler of MSI/MSI-X interrupts for P8 (PHB3) need additional
steps to handle the P/Q bits in IVE before EOIing the corresponding
interrupt. The patch changes the EOI handler to cover that. we have
individual IRQ chip in each PHB instance. During the MSI IRQ setup
time, the IRQ chip is copied over from the original one for that IRQ,
and the EOI handler is patched with the one that will handle the P/Q
bits (As Ben suggested).

Building a 64-bit powerpc kernel with PR KVM enabled currently gives
this error:
AS arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:258: Error: attempt to move .org backwards
make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1
This happens because the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro turns into
33 instructions, but we only have space for 32 at the decrementer
interrupt vector (from 0x900 to 0x980).
In the code generated by the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro, we
currently have two instances of the HMT_MEDIUM macro, which has the
effect of setting the SMT thread priority to medium. One is the
first instruction, and is overwritten by a no-op on processors where
we save the PPR (processor priority register), that is, POWER7 or
later. The other is after we have saved the PPR.
In order to reduce the code at 0x900 by one instruction, we omit the
first HMT_MEDIUM. On processors without SMT this will have no effect
since HMT_MEDIUM is a no-op there. On POWER5 and RS64 machines this
will mean that the first few instructions take a little longer in the
case where a decrementer interrupt occurs when the hardware thread is
running at low SMT priority. On POWER6 and later machines, the
hardware automatically boosts the thread priority when a decrementer
interrupt is taken if the thread priority was below medium, so this
change won't make any difference.
The alternative would be to branch out of line after saving the CFAR.
However, that would incur an extra overhead on all processors, whereas
the approach adopted here only adds overhead on older threaded processors.

There are instances in which we do not want topology updates to occur.
In order to allow this a /proc interface (/proc/powerpc/topology_updates)
is introduced so that topology updates can be enabled and disabled.
This patch also adds a prrn_is_enabled() call so that PRRN events are
handled in the kernel only if topology updating is enabled.

Platform events such as partition migration or the new PRRN firmware
feature can cause the NUMA characteristics of a CPU to change, and these
changes will be reflected in the device tree nodes for the affected
CPUs.
This patch registers a handler for Open Firmware device tree updates
and reconfigures the CPU and node maps whenever the associativity
changes. Currently, this is accomplished by marking the affected CPUs in
the cpu_associativity_changes_mask and allowing
arch_update_cpu_topology() to retrieve the new associativity information
using hcall_vphn().
Protecting the NUMA cpu maps from concurrent access during an update
operation will be addressed in a subsequent patch in this series.

5 bits
The firmware_has_feature() function makes it easy to check for supported
features of the hypervisor. This patch extends the capability of
firmware_has_feature() to include checking for specified bits
in vector 5 of the architecture vector as reported in the device tree.
As part of this the #defines used for the architecture vector are re-defined
such that each option has the index into vector 5 and the feature bit encoded
into it. This makes checking for architecture bits when initiating data
for firmware_has_feature much easier.

architecture vector bits reported in the device tree to ensure PRRN event

re-define bits in the architecture vector the bit definitions are moved
to prom.h.

A PRRN event is signaled via the RTAS event-scan mechanism, which
returns a Hot Plug Event message "fixed part" indicating "Platform
Resource Reassignment". In response to the Hot Plug Event message,
we must call ibm,update-nodes to determine which resources were
reassigned and then ibm,update-properties to obtain the new affinity
information about those resources.
The PRRN event-scan RTAS message contains only the "fixed part" with
the "Type" field set to the value 160 and no Extended Event Log. The
four-byte Extended Event Log Length field is re-purposed (since no
Extended Event Log message is included) to pass the "scope" parameter
that causes the ibm,update-nodes to return the nodes affected by the
specific resource reassignment.
This patch adds a handler for RTAS events. The function
pseries_devicetree_update() (from mobility.c) is used to make the
ibm,update-nodes/ibm,update-properties RTAS calls. Updating the NUMA maps
(handled by a subsequent patch) will require significant processing,
so pseries_devicetree_update() is called from an asynchronous workqueue
to allow event processing to continue.
PRRN RTAS events on pseries systems are rare events that have to be
initiated from the HMC console for the system by an IBM tech. This allows
us to assume that these events are widely spaced. Additionally, all work
on the queue is flushed before handling any new work to ensure we only have
one event in flight being handled at a time.

Newer firmware on Power systems can transparently reassign platform resources
(CPU and Memory) in use. For instance, if a processor or memory unit is
predicted to fail, the platform may transparently move the processing to an
equivalent unused processor or the memory state to an equivalent unused
memory unit. However, reassigning resources across NUMA boundaries may alter
the performance of the partition. When such reassignment is necessary, the
Platform Resource Reassignment Notification (PRRN) option provides a
mechanism to inform the Linux kernel of changes to the NUMA affinity of
its platform resources.
When rtasd receives a PRRN event, it needs to make a series of RTAS
calls (ibm,update-nodes and ibm,update-properties) to retrieve the
updated device tree information. These calls are already handled in the
pseries_devicetree_update() routine used in partition migration.
This patch exposes pseries_devicetree_update() to make it accessible
to other pseries routines, this patch also updates pseries_devicetree_update()
to take a 32-bit scope parameter. The scope value, which was previously hard
coded to 1 for partition migration, is used for the RTAS calls
ibm,update-nodes/properties to update the device tree.
