arch/powerpc/sysdev/fsl_rio.c: correct IECSR register clear value

2011-08-26T01:51:06+00:00

This bug causes the IECSR register clear failure.  In this case, the RETE
(retry error threshold exceeded) interrupt will be generated and cannot be
cleared.  So the related ISR may be called persistently.

The RETE bit in IECSR is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

powerpc/4xx: Fix build of PCI code on 405

2011-08-05T05:59:40+00:00

Commit 112d1fe9f7715db423ffeec5ac1beccff6093dc4
"powerpc/4xx: Add check_link to struct ppc4xx_pciex_hwops" inadvertently
broke 405 builds due to some functions being over protected by an
ifdef CONFIG_44x.

Move them back out.

powerpc/4xx: Add check_link to struct ppc4xx_pciex_hwops

2011-07-12T13:03:23+00:00

All current pcie controllers unconditionally use SDR to check the link and
poll for reset.  Refactor the code to include device reset in the
port_init_hw() op and add a new check_link() op.

This will make room fro new controllers that do not use SDR for these
operations.

Tested on 460ex.

KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use SMT processor modes

2011-07-12T10:16:57+00:00

This lifts the restriction that book3s_hv guests can only run one
hardware thread per core, and allows them to use up to 4 threads
per core on POWER7.  The host still has to run single-threaded.

This capability is advertised to qemu through a new KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT
capability.  The return value of the ioctl querying this capability
is the number of vcpus per virtual CPU core (vcore), currently 4.

To use this, the host kernel should be booted with all threads
active, and then all the secondary threads should be offlined.
This will put the secondary threads into nap mode.  KVM will then
wake them from nap mode and use them for running guest code (while
they are still offline).  To wake the secondary threads, we send
them an IPI using a new xics_wake_cpu() function, implemented in
arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/icp-native.c.  In other words, at this stage
we assume that the platform has a XICS interrupt controller and
we are using icp-native.c to drive it.  Since the woken thread will
need to acknowledge and clear the IPI, we also export the base
physical address of the XICS registers using kvmppc_set_xics_phys()
for use in the low-level KVM book3s code.

When a vcpu is created, it is assigned to a virtual CPU core.
The vcore number is obtained by dividing the vcpu number by the
number of threads per core in the host.  This number is exported
to userspace via the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability.  If qemu wishes
to run the guest in single-threaded mode, it should make all vcpu
numbers be multiples of the number of threads per core.

We distinguish three states of a vcpu: runnable (i.e., ready to execute
the guest), blocked (that is, idle), and busy in host.  We currently
implement a policy that the vcore can run only when all its threads
are runnable or blocked.  This way, if a vcpu needs to execute elsewhere
in the kernel or in qemu, it can do so without being starved of CPU
by the other vcpus.

When a vcore starts to run, it executes in the context of one of the
vcpu threads.  The other vcpu threads all go to sleep and stay asleep
until something happens requiring the vcpu thread to return to qemu,
or to wake up to run the vcore (this can happen when another vcpu
thread goes from busy in host state to blocked).

It can happen that a vcpu goes from blocked to runnable state (e.g.
because of an interrupt), and the vcore it belongs to is already
running.  In that case it can start to run immediately as long as
the none of the vcpus in the vcore have started to exit the guest.
We send the next free thread in the vcore an IPI to get it to start
to execute the guest.  It synchronizes with the other threads via
the vcore->entry_exit_count field to make sure that it doesn't go
into the guest if the other vcpus are exiting by the time that it
is ready to actually enter the guest.

Note that there is no fixed relationship between the hardware thread
number and the vcpu number.  Hardware threads are assigned to vcpus
as they become runnable, so we will always use the lower-numbered
hardware threads in preference to higher-numbered threads if not all
the vcpus in the vcore are runnable, regardless of which vcpus are
runnable.
