d0bfb940ec KVM: New guest debug interface
This rips out the support for KVM_DEBUG_GUEST and introduces a new IOCTL
instead: KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. The IOCTL payload consists of a generic
part, controlling the "main switch" and the single-step feature. The
arch specific part adds an x86 interface for intercepting both types of
debug exceptions separately and re-injecting them when the host was not
interested. Moveover, the foundation for guest debugging via debug
registers is layed.

To signal breakpoint events properly back to userland, an arch-specific
data block is now returned along KVM_EXIT_DEBUG. For x86, the arch block
contains the PC, the debug exception, and relevant debug registers to
tell debug events properly apart.

The availability of this new interface is signaled by
KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. Empty stubs for not yet supported archs are
provided.

Note that both SVM and VTX are supported, but only the latter was tested
yet. Based on the experience with all those VTX corner case, I would be
fairly surprised if SVM will work out of the box.

c9310920e6 powerpc/5200: Enable CPU_FTR_NEED_COHERENT for MPC52xx
BestComm, a DMA engine in MPC52xx SoC, requires snooping when
CPU caches are enabled to work properly.

Adding CPU_FTR_NEED_COHERENT fixes NFS problems on MPC52xx machines
introduced by 'powerpc/mm: Fix handling of _PAGE_COHERENT in BAT setup
code' (sha1: 4c456a67f5).

5b1017404a x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

	/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

	   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

	   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
	   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
	   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

	   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
	   fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

Convert arch/powerpc/ over to long long based u64:

 -# include <asm-generic/int-l64.h>
 -#else
 -# include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>
 -#endif
 +#include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>

This will avoid reoccuring spurious warnings in core kernel code that
comes when people test on their own hardware. (i.e. x86 in ~98% of the
cases) This is what x86 uses and it generally helps keep 64-bit code
32-bit clean too.

883823291d powerpc/oprofile: IBM CELL: add SPU event profiling support
This patch adds the SPU event based profiling funcitonality for the
IBM Cell processor.  Previously, the CELL OProfile kernel code supported
PPU event, PPU cycle profiling and SPU cycle profiling.   The addition of
SPU event profiling allows the users to identify where in their SPU code
various SPU evnets are occuring.  This should help users further identify
issues with their code.  Note, SPU profiling has some limitations due to HW
constraints.  Only one event at a time can be used for profiling and SPU event
profiling must be time sliced across all of the SPUs in a node.

The patch adds a new arch specific file to the OProfile file system. The
file has bit 0 set to indicate that the kernel supports SPU event profiling.
The user tool must check this file/bit to make sure the kernel supports
SPU event profiling before trying to do SPU event profiling.  The user tool
check is part of the user tool patch for SPU event profiling.

The patch replaces internal registers dump implementation with
ppc_save_regs(). From now on PPC64 and PPC32 are using the same
code for crash_setup_regs().

NOTE: The old regs dump implementation was capturing SP (r1) directly
as is, so you could see crash_kexec() function on top of the back-trace.
But ppc_save_regs() goes up one stack frame, so you'll not see it
anymore, at the top-level you'll see who actually triggered the crash
dump instead.

The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA.  This matches the size used by the MMU in the

73e75b416f KVM: ppc: Implement in-kernel exit timing statistics
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).

c5fbdffbda KVM: ppc: save and restore guest mappings on context switch
Store shadow TLB entries in memory, but only use it on host context switch
(instead of every guest entry). This improves performance for most workloads on

7924bd4109 KVM: ppc: directly insert shadow mappings into the hardware TLB
Formerly, we used to maintain a per-vcpu shadow TLB and on every entry to the
guest would load this array into the hardware TLB. This consumed 1280 bytes of
memory (64 entries of 16 bytes plus a struct page pointer each), and also
required some assembly to loop over the array on every entry.

Instead of saving a copy in memory, we can just store shadow mappings directly
into the hardware TLB, accepting that the host kernel will clobber these as
part of the normal 440 TLB round robin. When we do that we need less than half
the memory, and we have decreased the exit handling time for all guest exits,
at the cost of increased number of TLB misses because the host overwrites some
guest entries.

These savings will be increased on processors with larger TLBs or which
implement intelligent flush instructions like tlbivax (which will avoid the
need to walk arrays in software).

In addition to that and to the code simplification, we have a greater chance of
leaving other host userspace mappings in the TLB, instead of forcing all
subsequent tasks to re-fault all their mappings.

c0ca609c5f powerpc/44x: declare tlb_44x_index for use in C code
KVM currently ignores the host's round robin TLB eviction selection, instead
maintaining its own TLB state and its own round robin index. However, by
participating in the normal 44x TLB selection, we can drop the alternate TLB
processing in KVM. This results in a significant performance improvement,
since that processing currently must be done on *every* guest exit.

Accordingly, KVM needs to be able to access and increment tlb_44x_index.
(KVM on 440 cannot be a module, so there is no need to export this symbol.)

891686188f KVM: ppc: support large host pages
KVM on 440 has always been able to handle large guest mappings with 4K host
pages -- we must, since the guest kernel uses 256MB mappings.

This patch makes KVM work when the host has large pages too (tested with 64K).

fe4e771d5c KVM: ppc: fix userspace mapping invalidation on context switch
We used to defer invalidating userspace TLB entries until jumping out of the
kernel. This was causing MMU weirdness most easily triggered by using a pipe in
the guest, e.g. "dmesg | tail". I believe the problem was that after the guest
kernel changed the PID (part of context switch), the old process's mappings
were still present, and so copy_to_user() on the "return to new process" path
ended up using stale mappings.

Testing with large pages (64K) exposed the problem, probably because with 4K
pages, pressure on the TLB faulted all process A's mappings out before the
guest kernel could insert any for process B.

d4cf3892e5 KVM: ppc: optimize irq delivery path
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).

Cores provide 3 emulation hooks, implemented for example in the new

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.

1b9e89046c powerpc/qe: Implement QE Pin Multiplexing API
With this API we're able to set a QE pin to the GPIO mode or a dedicated
peripheral function.

The API relies on the fact that QE gpio controllers are registered. If
they aren't, the API won't work (gracefully though).

There is one caveat though: if anybody occupied the node->data before us,
or overwrote it, then bad things will happen. Luckily this is all in the
platform code that we fully control, so this should never happen.

I could implement more checks (for example we could create a list of
successfully registered QE controllers, and compare the node->data in the
qe_pin_request()), but this is unneeded if nobody is going to do silly
things behind our back.
