Alex Graf has already made qemu support KVM for the pseries machine
when using the Book3S-PR KVM variant (which runs the guest in
usermode, emulating supervisor operations). This code allows gets us
very close to also working with KVM Book3S-HV (using the hypervisor
capabilities of recent POWER CPUs).
This patch moves us another step towards Book3S-HV support by
correctly handling SMT (multithreaded) POWER CPUs. There are two
parts to this:
* Querying KVM to check SMT capability, and if present, adjusting the
cpu numbers that qemu assigns to cause KVM to assign guest threads
to cores in the right way (this isn't automatic, because the POWER
HV support has a limitation that different threads on a single core
cannot be in different guests at the same time).
* Correctly informing the guest OS of the SMT thread to core mappings
via the device tree.

When running with PR KVM, we need to set HIOR directly. Thankfully there
is now a new interface to set registers individually so we can just use that
and poke HIOR into the guest vcpu's HIOR register.
While at it, this also sets SDR1 because -M pseries requires it to run.
With this patch, -M pseries works properly with PR KVM.

When compiling Qemu with older kernel headers, the PVR setting

Classic/server ppc has had SREGS for a while now (though I think not
always?), but it's still missing for booke. Check the capability before
calling KVM_SET_SREGS.
Without this, booke kvm fails to boot as of commit
84b4915dd2 (kvm: Handle kvm_init_vcpu
errors).
Also, don't write random stack state into the non-PVR sregs fields --
have kvm fill it in first.
Eventually booke will have sregs and it will have its own capability to
be tested here. However, we will want a way for platform code to request
to look like the actual CPU we're running on, especially if SoC devices
are being directly assigned.

On ppc machines with hash table MMUs, the special purpose register SDR1
contains both the base address of the encoded size (hashed) page tables.
At present, we interpret the SDR1 value within the address translation
path. But because the encodings of the size for 32-bit and 64-bit are
different this makes for a confusing branch on the MMU type with a bunch
of curly shifts and masks in the middle of the translate path.
This patch cleans things up by moving the interpretation on SDR1 into the
helper function handling the write to the register. This leaves a simple
pre-sanitized base address and mask for the hash table in the CPUState
structure which is easier to work with in the translation path.
This makes the translation path more readable. It addresses the FIXME
comment currently in the mtsdr1 helper, by validating the SDR1 value during
interpretation. Finally it opens the way for emulating a pSeries-style
partition where the hash table used for translation is not mapped into
the guests's RAM.

KVM on PowerPC used to have completely broken interrupt logic. Usually,
interrupts work by having a PIC that pulls a line up/down, so the CPU knows
that an interrupt is active. This line stays active until some action is
done to the PIC to release the line.
On KVM for PPC, we just checked if there was an interrupt pending and pulled
a line in the kernel module. We never released it though, hoping that kernel
space would just declare an interrupt as released when injected - which is
wrong.
To fix this, we need to completely redesign the interrupt injection logic.
Whenever an interrupt line gets triggered, we need to notify kernel space
that the line is up. Whenever it gets released, we do the same. This way
we can assure that the interrupt state is always known to kernel space.
This fixes random stalls in KVM guests on PowerPC that were waiting for
an interrupt while everyone else thought they received it already.

On KVM for PPC we need to tell the guest which instructions to use when
doing a hypercall. The clean way to do this is to go through an ioctl
from userspace and passing it on to the guest using the device tree.
So let's do the qemu part here: read out the hypercall and pass it on
to the guest's fw_cfg so openBIOS can read it out and expose it again.

When running with --enable-io-thread the timer we have doesn't help,
because it doesn't wake up the CPU thread. So instead we need to
actually kick it.
While at it I refined the logic a bit to not dumbly trigger a timer
every 500ms, but rather do it more often after an interrupt got injected.
If there's no level based interrupt to be expected, we don't need the
timer anyways.
This makes qemu-system-ppc with --enable-io-thread work when using KVM.

This grand cleanup drops all reset and vmsave/load related
synchronization points in favor of four(!) generic hooks:
- cpu_synchronize_all_states in qemu_savevm_state_complete
(initial sync from kernel before vmsave)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in qemu_loadvm_state
(writeback after vmload)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in main after machine init
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset in qemu_system_reset
(writeback after system reset)
These writeback points + the existing one of VCPU exec after
cpu_synchronize_state map on three levels of writeback:
- KVM_PUT_RUNTIME_STATE (during runtime, other VCPUs continue to run)
- KVM_PUT_RESET_STATE (on synchronous system reset, all VCPUs stopped)
- KVM_PUT_FULL_STATE (on init or vmload, all VCPUs stopped as well)
This level is passed to the arch-specific VCPU state writing function
that will decide which concrete substates need to be written. That way,
no writer of load, save or reset functions that interact with in-kernel
KVM states will ever have to worry about synchronization again. That
also means that a lot of reasons for races, segfaults and deadlocks are
eliminated.
cpu_synchronize_state remains untouched, just as Anthony suggested. We
continue to need it before reading or writing of VCPU states that are
also tracked by in-kernel KVM subsystems.
Consequently, this patch removes many cpu_synchronize_state calls that
are now redundant, just like remaining explicit register syncs.

For some odd reason we sometimes hang inside KVM forever. I'd guess it's
a race condition where we actually have a level triggered interrupt, but
the infrastructure can't expose that yet, so the guest ACKs it, goes to
sleep and never gets notified that there's still an interrupt pending.
As a quick workaround, let's just wake up every 500 ms. That way we can
assure that we're always reinjecting interrupts in time.

Our guest systems need to know by how much the timebase increases every second,
so there usually is a "timebase-frequency" property in the cpu leaf of the
device tree.
This property is missing in OpenBIOS.
With qemu, Linux's fallback timebase speed and qemu's internal timebase speed
match up. With KVM, that is no longer true. The guest is running at the same
timebase speed as the host.
This leads to massive timing problems. On my test machine, a "sleep 2" takes
about 14 seconds with KVM enabled.
This patch exports the timebase frequency to OpenBIOS, so it can then put them
into the device tree.
