Print more information about MCE error whether it is an hardware or
software error.
Some of the MCE errors can be easily categorized as hardware or
software errors e.g. UEs are due to hardware error, where as error
triggered due to invalid usage of tlbie is a pure software bug. But
not all the MCE errors can be easily categorize into either software
or hardware. There are errors like multihit errors which are usually
result of a software bug, but in some rare cases a hardware failure
can cause a multihit error. In past, we have seen case where after
replacing faulty chip, multihit errors stopped occurring. Same with
parity errors, which are usually due to faulty hardware but there are
chances where multihit can also cause an parity error. Such errors are
difficult to determine what really caused it. Hence this patch
classifies MCE errors into following four categorize:
1. Hardware error:
UE and Link timeout failure errors.
2. Probable hardware error (some chance of software cause)
SLB/ERAT/TLB Parity errors.
3. Software error
Invalid tlbie form.
4. Probable software error (some chance of hardware cause)
SLB/ERAT/TLB Multihit errors.

Reimplement Book3S idle code in C, moving POWER7/8/9 implementation
speific HV idle code to the powernv platform code.
Book3S assembly stubs are kept in common code and used only to save
the stack frame and non-volatile GPRs before executing architected
idle instructions, and restoring the stack and reloading GPRs then
returning to C after waking from idle.
The complex logic dealing with threads and subcores, locking, SPRs,
HMIs, timebase resync, etc., is all done in C which makes it more
maintainable.
This is not a strict translation to C code, there are some
significant differences:
- Idle wakeup no longer uses the ->cpu_restore call to reinit SPRs,
but saves and restores them itself.
- The optimisation where EC=ESL=0 idle modes did not have to save GPRs
or change MSR is restored, because it's now simple to do. ESL=1
sleeps that do not lose GPRs can use this optimization too.
- KVM secondary entry and cede is now more of a call/return style
rather than branchy. nap_state_lost is not required because KVM
always returns via NVGPR restoring path.
- KVM secondary wakeup from offline sequence is moved entirely into
the offline wakeup, which avoids a hwsync in the normal idle wakeup
path.
Performance measured with context switch ping-pong on different
threads or cores, is possibly improved a small amount, 1-3% depending
on stop state and core vs thread test for shallow states. Deep states
it's in the noise compared with other latencies.
KVM improvements:
- Idle sleepers now always return to caller rather than branch out
to KVM first.
- This allows optimisations like very fast return to caller when no
state has been lost.
- KVM no longer requires nap_state_lost because it controls NVGPR
save/restore itself on the way in and out.
- The heavy idle wakeup KVM request check can be moved out of the
normal host idle code and into the not-performance-critical offline
code.
- KVM nap code now returns from where it is called, which makes the
flow a bit easier to follow.

Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
When a P9 sPAPR VM boots, the CAS negotiation process determines which
interrupt mode to use (XICS legacy or XIVE native) and invokes a
machine reset to activate the chosen mode.
We introduce 'release' methods for the XICS-on-XIVE and the XIVE
native KVM devices which are called when the file descriptor of the
device is closed after the TIMA and ESB pages have been unmapped.
They perform the necessary cleanups : clear the vCPU interrupt
presenters that could be attached and then destroy the device. The
'release' methods replace the 'destroy' methods as 'destroy' is not
called anymore once 'release' is. Compatibility with older QEMU is
nevertheless maintained.
This is not considered as a safe operation as the vCPUs are still
running and could be referencing the KVM device through their
presenters. To protect the system from any breakage, the kvmppc_xive
objects representing both KVM devices are now stored in an array under
the VM. Allocation is performed on first usage and memory is freed
only when the VM exits.

Each thread has an associated Thread Interrupt Management context
composed of a set of registers. These registers let the thread handle
priority management and interrupt acknowledgment. The most important
are :
- Interrupt Pending Buffer (IPB)
- Current Processor Priority (CPPR)
- Notification Source Register (NSR)
They are exposed to software in four different pages each proposing a

thread context and the second for the hypervisor. Only the third
(operating system) and the fourth (user level) are exposed the guest.

When running on POWER9 with kvm_hv.indep_threads_mode = N and the host
in SMT1 mode, KVM will run guest VCPUs on offline secondary threads.
If those guests are in radix mode, we fail to load the LPID and flush
the TLB if necessary, leading to the guest crashing with an
unsupported MMU fault. This arises from commit 9a4506e11b ("KVM:
PPC: Book3S HV: Make radix handle process scoped LPID flush in C,
with relocation on", 2018-05-17), which didn't consider the case
where indep_threads_mode = N.
For simplicity, this makes the real-mode guest entry path flush the
TLB in the same place for both radix and hash guests, as we did before
9a4506e11b, though the code is now C code rather than assembly code.
We also have the radix TLB flush open-coded rather than calling
radix__local_flush_tlb_lpid_guest(), because the TLB flush can be
called in real mode, and in real mode we don't want to invoke the
tracepoint code.

We already allocate hardware TCE tables in multiple levels and skip
intermediate levels when we can, now it is a turn of the KVM TCE tables.
Thankfully these are allocated already in 2 levels.
This moves the table's last level allocation from the creating helper to
kvmppc_tce_put() and kvm_spapr_tce_fault(). Since such allocation cannot
be done in real mode, this creates a virtual mode version of
kvmppc_tce_put() which handles allocations.
This adds kvmppc_rm_ioba_validate() to do an additional test if
the consequent kvmppc_tce_put() needs a page which has not been allocated;
if this is the case, we bail out to virtual mode handlers.
The allocations are protected by a new mutex as kvm->lock is not suitable
for the task because the fault handler is called with the mmap_sem held
but kvmhv_setup_mmu() locks kvm->lock and mmap_sem in the reverse order.

in kvm_memslots() because of srcu_dereference_check() so we need to use
PPC-own kvm_memslots_raw() which uses realmode safe
rcu_dereference_raw_notrace().
This creates a realmode copy of kvmppc_tce_to_ua() which replaces
kvm_memslots() with kvm_memslots_raw().
Since kvmppc_rm_tce_to_ua() becomes static and can only be used inside
HV KVM, this moves it earlier under CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE.
This moves truly virtual-mode kvmppc_tce_to_ua() to where it belongs and

When removing memory we need to remove the memory from the node
it was added to instead of looking up the node it should be in
in the device tree.
During testing we have seen scenarios where the affinity for a
LMB changes due to a partition migration or PRRN event. In these
cases the node the LMB exists in may not match the node the device
tree indicates it belongs in. This can lead to a system crash
when trying to DLPAR remove the LMB after a migration or PRRN
event. The current code looks up the node in the device tree to
remove the LMB from, the crash occurs when we try to offline this
node and it does not have any data, i.e. node_data[nid] == NULL.

This patch implements Kernel Userspace Access Protection for

Due to limitations of the processor page protection capabilities,
the protection is only against writing. read protection cannot be
achieved using page protection.
The previous patch modifies the page protection so that RW user
pages are RW for Key 0 and RO for Key 1, and it sets Key 0 for
both user and kernel.
This patch changes userspace segment registers are set to Ku 0
and Ks 1. When kernel needs to write to RW pages, the associated
segment register is then changed to Ks 0 in order to allow write
access to the kernel.
In order to avoid having the read all segment registers when
locking/unlocking the access, some data is kept in the thread_struct
and saved on stack on exceptions. The field identifies both the
first unlocked segment and the first segment following the last
unlocked one. When no segment is unlocked, it contains value 0.
As the hash_page() function is not able to easily determine if a
protfault is due to a bad kernel access to userspace, protfaults
need to be handled by handle_page_fault when KUAP is set.

Note that powerpc 601 doesn't have the NX bit, so KUEP will not
work on it. A warning is displayed at startup.

This patch adds Kernel Userspace Access Protection on the 8xx.
When a page is RO or RW, it is set RO or RW for Key 0 and NA
for Key 1.
Up to now, the User group is defined with Key 0 for both User and
Supervisor.
By changing the group to Key 0 for User and Key 1 for Supervisor,
this patch prevents the Kernel from being able to access user data.
At exception entry, the kernel saves SPRN_MD_AP in the regs struct,
and reapply the protection. At exception exit it restores SPRN_MD_AP
with the value saved on exception entry.
