The e500_tlb.c file didn't compile for me due to the following error:
arch/powerpc/kvm/e500_tlb.c: In function ‘kvmppc_e500_shadow_map’:
arch/powerpc/kvm/e500_tlb.c:300: error: format ‘%lx’ expects type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘gfn_t’
So let's explicitly cast the argument to make printk happy.

The kvmppc_e500_stlbe_invalidate() function was trying to pass too many
parameters to trace_kvm_stlb_inval(). This appears to be a bad
copy-paste from a call to trace_kvm_stlb_write().

BookE also wants to support level based interrupts, so let's implement
all the necessary logic there. We need to trick a bit here because the
irqprios are 1:1 assigned to architecture defined values. But since there
is some space left there, we can just pick a random one and move it later
on - it's internal anyways.

Now that we have all the level interrupt magic in place, let's
expose the capability to user space, so it can make use of it!
Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
The current interrupt logic is just completely broken. We get a notification
from user space, telling us that an interrupt is there. But then user space
expects us that we just acknowledge an interrupt once we deliver it to the
guest.
This is not how real hardware works though. On real hardware, the interrupt
controller pulls the external interrupt line until it gets notified that the
interrupt was received.
So in reality we have two events: pulling and letting go of the interrupt line.
To maintain backwards compatibility, I added a new request for the pulling
part. The letting go part was implemented earlier already.
With this in place, we can now finally start guests that do not randomly stall
and stop to work at random times.
This patch implements above logic for Book3S.

Before I incorrectly enabled napping also for BookE, which would result in
needless dcache flushes. Since we only need to force enable napping on
Book3s_64 because it doesn't go into MSR_POW otherwise, we can just #ifdef
that code to this particular platform.

On Book3S a mtmsr with the MSR_POW bit set indicates that the OS is in
idle and only needs to be waked up on the next interrupt.
Now, unfortunately we let that bit slip into the stored MSR value which
is not what the real CPU does, so that we ended up executing code like
this:
r = mfmsr();
/* r containts MSR_POW */
mtmsr(r | MSR_EE);
This obviously breaks, as we're going into idle mode in code sections that
don't expect to be idling.
This patch masks MSR_POW out of the stored MSR value on wakeup, making
guests happy again.

Up until now we were doing segment mappings wrong on Book3s_32. For Book3s_64
we were using a trick where we know that a single mmu_context gives us 16 bits
of context ids.
The mm system on Book3s_32 instead uses a clever algorithm to distribute VSIDs
across the available range, so a context id really only gives us 16 available
VSIDs.
To keep at least a few guest processes in the SID shadow, let's map a number of
contexts that we can use as VSID pool. This makes the code be actually correct
and shouldn't hurt performance too much.

There are some heuristics in the PPC power management code that try to find
out if the particular hardware we're running on supports proper power management
or just hangs the machine when going into nap mode.
Since we know that KVM is safe with nap, let's force enable it in the PV code
once we're certain that we are on a KVM VM.

When having a decrementor interrupt pending, the dequeuing happens manually
through an mtdec instruction. This instruction simply calls dequeue on that
interrupt, so the int_pending hint doesn't get updated.
This patch enables updating the int_pending hint also on dequeue, thus
correctly enabling guests to stay in guest contexts more often.

So far we've been restricting ourselves to r0-r29 as registers an mtmsr
instruction could use. This was bad, as there are some code paths in
Linux actually using r30.
So let's instead handle all registers gracefully and get rid of that
stupid limitation

This is the guest side of the mtsr acceleration. Using this a guest can now
call mtsrin with almost no overhead as long as it ensures that it only uses
it with (MSR_IR|MSR_DR) == 0. Linux does that, so we're good.

Now that the actual mtsr doesn't do anything anymore, we can move the sr
contents over to the shared page, so a guest can directly read and write
its sr contents from guest context.

Right now we're examining the contents of Book3s_32's segment registers when
the register is written and put the interpreted contents into a struct.
There are two reasons this is bad. For starters, the struct has worse real-time
performance, as it occupies more ram. But the more important part is that with
segment registers being interpreted from their raw values, we can put them in
the shared page, allowing guests to mess with them directly.
This patch makes the internal representation of SRs be u32s.
