Paul Mackerras ded13fc11b KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix migration and HPT resizing of HPT guests on radix hosts
This fixes two errors that prevent a guest using the HPT MMU from
successfully migrating to a POWER9 host in radix MMU mode, or resizing
its HPT when running on a radix host.

The first bug was that commit 8dc6cca556 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV:
Don't rely on host's page size information", 2017-09-11) missed two
uses of hpte_base_page_size(), one in the HPT rehashing code and
one in kvm_htab_write() (which is used on the destination side in
migrating a HPT guest).  Instead we use kvmppc_hpte_base_page_shift().
Having the shift count means that we can use left and right shifts
instead of multiplication and division in a few places.

Along the way, this adds a check in kvm_htab_write() to ensure that the
page size encoding in the incoming HPTEs is recognized, and if not
return an EINVAL error to userspace.

The second bug was that kvm_htab_write was performing some but not all
of the functions of kvmhv_setup_mmu(), resulting in the destination VM
being left in radix mode as far as the hardware is concerned.  The
simplest fix for now is make kvm_htab_write() call
kvmppc_setup_partition_table() like kvmppc_hv_setup_htab_rma() does.
In future it would be better to refactor the code more extensively
to remove the duplication.

Fixes: 8dc6cca556 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't rely on host's page size information")
Fixes: 7a84084c60 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Set partition table rather than SDR1 on POWER9")

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
