During guest entry/exit, we switch over to/from the guest MMU context and we cannot take exceptions in the hypervisor code. Since ftrace may be enabled and since it can result in us taking a trap, disable ftrace by setting paca->ftrace_enabled to zero. There are two paths through which we enter/exit a guest: 1. If we are the vcore runner, then we enter the guest via __kvmppc_vcore_entry() and we disable ftrace around this. This is always the case for Power9, and for the primary thread on Power8. 2. If we are a secondary thread in Power8, then we would be in nap due to SMT being disabled. We are woken up by an IPI to enter the guest. In this scenario, we enter the guest through kvm_start_guest(). We disable ftrace at this point. In this scenario, ftrace would only get re-enabled on the secondary thread when SMT is re-enabled (via start_secondary()). Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
