Paul Mackerras 95a6432ce9 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Streamlined guest entry/exit path on P9 for radix guests ... This creates an alternative guest entry/exit path which is used for radix guests on POWER9 systems when we have indep_threads_mode=Y. In these circumstances there is exactly one vcpu per vcore and there is no coordination required between vcpus or vcores; the vcpu can enter the guest without needing to synchronize with anything else. The new fast path is implemented almost entirely in C in book3s_hv.c and runs with the MMU on until the guest is entered. On guest exit we use the existing path until the point where we are committed to exiting the guest (as distinct from handling an interrupt in the low-level code and returning to the guest) and we have pulled the guest context from the XIVE. At that point we check a flag in the stack frame to see whether we came in via the old path and the new path; if we came in via the new path then we go back to C code to do the rest of the process of saving the guest context and restoring the host context. The C code is split into separate functions for handling the OS-accessible state and the hypervisor state, with the idea that the latter can be replaced by a hypercall when we implement nested virtualization.
