POWER9 has hardware bugs relating to transactional memory and thread
reconfiguration (changes to hardware SMT mode). Specifically, the core
does not have enough storage to store a complete checkpoint of all the
architected state for all four threads. The DD2.2 version of POWER9
includes hardware modifications designed to allow hypervisor software
to implement workarounds for these problems. This patch implements
those workarounds in KVM code so that KVM guests see a full, working
transactional memory implementation.
The problems center around the use of TM suspended state, where the
CPU has a checkpointed state but execution is not transactional. The
workaround is to implement a "fake suspend" state, which looks to the
guest like suspended state but the CPU does not store a checkpoint.
In this state, any instruction that would cause a transition to
transactional state (rfid, rfebb, mtmsrd, tresume) or would use the
checkpointed state (treclaim) causes a "soft patch" interrupt (vector
0x1500) to the hypervisor so that it can be emulated. The trechkpt
instruction also causes a soft patch interrupt.
On POWER9 DD2.2, we avoid returning to the guest in any state which
would require a checkpoint to be present. The trechkpt in the guest
entry path which would normally create that checkpoint is replaced by
either a transition to fake suspend state, if the guest is in suspend
state, or a rollback to the pre-transactional state if the guest is in
transactional state. Fake suspend state is indicated by a flag in the
PACA plus a new bit in the PSSCR. The new PSSCR bit is write-only and
reads back as 0.
On exit from the guest, if the guest is in fake suspend state, we still
do the treclaim instruction as we would in real suspend state, in order
to get into non-transactional state, but we do not save the resulting
register state since there was no checkpoint.
Emulation of the instructions that cause a softpatch interrupt is
handled in two paths. If the guest is in real suspend mode, we call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() to handle the cases where the guest is
transitioning to transactional state. This is called before we do the
treclaim in the guest exit path; because we haven't done treclaim, we
can get back to the guest with the transaction still active. If the
instruction is a case that kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation_early() doesn't
handle, or if the guest is in fake suspend state, then we proceed to
do the complete guest exit path and subsequently call
kvmhv_p9_tm_emulation() in host context with the MMU on. This handles
all the cases including the cases that generate program interrupts
(illegal instruction or TM Bad Thing) and facility unavailable
interrupts.
The emulation is reasonably straightforward and is mostly concerned
with checking for exception conditions and updating the state of
registers such as MSR and CR0. The treclaim emulation takes care to
ensure that the TEXASR register gets updated as if it were the guest
treclaim instruction that had done failure recording, not the treclaim
done in hypervisor state in the guest exit path.
With this, the KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM capability returns true (1) even if
transactional memory is not available to host userspace.

POWER9 processors up to and including "Nimbus" v2.2 have hardware
bugs relating to transactional memory and thread reconfiguration.
One of these bugs has a workaround which is to get the core into
SMT4 state temporarily. This workaround is only needed when
running bare-metal.
This patch provides a function which gets the core into SMT4 mode
by preventing threads from going to a stop state, and waking up
those which are already in a stop state. Once at least 3 threads
are not in a stop state, the core will be in SMT4 and we can
continue.
To do this, we add a "dont_stop" flag to the paca to tell the
thread not to go into a stop state. If this flag is set,
power9_idle_stop() just returns immediately with a return value
of 0. The pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function does the following:
1. Set the dont_stop flag for each thread in the core, except
ourselves (in fact we use an atomic_inc() in case more than
one thread is calling this function concurrently).
2. See how many threads are awake, indicated by their
requested_psscr field in the paca being 0. If this is at
least 3, skip to step 5.
3. Send a doorbell interrupt to each thread that was seen as
being in a stop state in step 2.
4. Until at least 3 threads are awake, scan the threads to which
we sent a doorbell interrupt and check if they are awake now.
This relies on the following properties:
- Once dont_stop is non-zero, requested_psccr can't go from zero to
non-zero, except transiently (and without the thread doing stop).
- requested_psscr being zero guarantees that the thread isn't in
a state-losing stop state where thread reconfiguration could occur.
- Doing stop with a PSSCR value of 0 won't be a state-losing stop
and thus won't allow thread reconfiguration.
- Once threads_per_core/2 + 1 (i.e. 3) threads are awake, the core
must be in SMT4 mode, since SMT modes are powers of 2.
This does add a sync to power9_idle_stop(), which is necessary to
provide the correct ordering between setting requested_psscr and
checking dont_stop. The overhead of the sync should be unnoticeable
compared to the latency of going into and out of a stop state.
Because some objected to incurring this extra latency on systems where
the XER[SO] bug is not relevant, I have put the test in
power9_idle_stop inside a feature section. This means that
pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() WILL NOT WORK correctly on systems
without the CPU_FTR_P9_TM_XER_SO_BUG feature bit set, and will
probably hang the system.
In order to cater for uses where the caller has an operation that
has to be done while the core is in SMT4, the core continues to be
kept in SMT4 after pnv_power9_force_smt4_catch() function returns,
until the pnv_power9_force_smt4_release() function is called.
It undoes the effect of step 1 above and allows the other threads
to go into a stop state.

This adds a CPU feature bit which is set for POWER9 "Nimbus" DD2.2
processors which will be used to enable the hypervisor to assist
hardware with the handling of checkpointed register values while the
CPU is in suspend state, in order to work around hardware bugs. The
hardware assistance for these workarounds introduced a new hardware
bug relating to the XER[SO] bit. We add a separate feature bit for
this bug in case future chips fix it while still requiring the
hypervisor assistance with suspend state.
When the dt_cpu_ftrs subsystem is in use, the software assistance can
be enabled using a "tm-suspend-hypervisor-assist" node in the device
tree, and a "tm-suspend-xer-so-bug" node enables the workarounds for
the XER[SO] bug. In the absence of such nodes, a quirk enables both
for POWER9 "Nimbus" DD2.2 processors.

This moves all the CPU feature bits that are only used on 32-bit
machines to the top 20 bits of the CPU feature word and arranges
for them to be defined only in 32-bit builds. The features that
are common to 32-bit and 64-bit machines are moved to bits 0-11
of the CPU feature word. This means that for 64-bit platforms,
bits 44-63 can now be used for new features that only exist on
64-bit machines. (These bit numbers are counting from the right,
i.e. the LSB is bit 0.)
Because CPU_FTR_L3_DISABLE_NAP moved from the low 16 bits to the high
16 bits, we have to adjust some assembly code. Also, CPU_FTR_EMB_HV
moved from the high 16 bits to the low 16 bits.
Note that CPU_FTR_REAL_LE only applies to 64-bit chips, because only
64-bit chips (POWER6, 7, 8, 9) have a true little-endian mode that is
a CPU execution mode as opposed to being a page attribute.
