Probe for availablility of M{T,F}HC0 instructions used with e.g. XPA in
the VZ guest context, and make it available via cpu_guest_has_mvh. This
will be helpful in properly emulating the MAAR registers in KVM for MIPS
VZ.

Probe for presence of guest CP0_UserLocal register and expose via
cpu_guest_has_userlocal. This register is optional pre-r6, so this will
allow KVM to only save/restore/expose the guest CP0_UserLocal register
if it exists.

<title>MIPS: Add defs &amp; probing of UFR</title>

Add definitions and probing of the UFR bit in Config5. This bit allows
user mode control of the FR bit (floating point register mode). It is
present if the UFRP bit is set in the floating point implementation
register.

This is a capability KVM may want to expose to guest kernels, even
though Linux is unlikely to ever use it due to the implications for
multi-threaded programs.

<title>lib/GCD.c: use binary GCD algorithm instead of Euclidean</title>

<id>fff7fb0b2d908dec779783d8eaf3d7725230f75e</id>
<content type='text'>
The binary GCD algorithm is based on the following facts:
	1. If a and b are all evens, then gcd(a,b) = 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
	2. If a is even and b is odd, then gcd(a,b) = gcd(a/2, b)
	3. If a and b are all odds, then gcd(a,b) = gcd((a-b)/2, b) = gcd((a+b)/2, b)

Even on x86 machines with reasonable division hardware, the binary
algorithm runs about 25% faster (80% the execution time) than the
division-based Euclidian algorithm.

On platforms like Alpha and ARMv6 where division is a function call to
emulation code, it's even more significant.

There are two variants of the code here, depending on whether a fast
__ffs (find least significant set bit) instruction is available.  This
allows the unpredictable branches in the bit-at-a-time shifting loop to
be eliminated.

If fast __ffs is not available, the "even/odd" GCD variant is used.

I use the following code to benchmark:

	#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;

<title>MIPS: Add probing &amp; defs for VZ &amp; guest features</title>

<content type='text'>
Add a few new cpu-features.h definitions for VZ sub-features, namely the
existence of the CP0_GuestCtl0Ext, CP0_GuestCtl1, and CP0_GuestCtl2
registers, and support for GuestID to dialias TLB entries belonging to
different guests.

Also add certain features present in the guest, with the naming scheme
cpu_guest_has_*. These are added separately to the main options bitfield
since they generally parallel similar features in the root context. A
few of these (FPU, MSA, watchpoints, perf counters, CP0_[X]ContextConfig
registers, MAAR registers, and probably others in future) can be
dynamically configured in the guest context, for which the
cpu_guest_has_dyn_* macros are added.

Add CPU feature for standard MIPS r2 performance counters, as determined
by the Config1.PC bit. Both perf_events and oprofile probe this bit, so
lets combine the probing and change both to use cpu_has_perf.

This will also be used for VZ support in KVM to know whether performance
counters exist which can be exposed to guests.

The CP0_[X]ContextConfig registers are present if CP0_Config3.CTXTC or
CP0_Config3.SM are set, and provide more control over which bits of
CP0_[X]Context are set to the faulting virtual address on a TLB

KVM/VZ will need to be able to save and restore these registers in the
guest context, so add the relevant definitions and probing of the
ContextConfig feature in the root context first.

The optional CP0_BadInstr and CP0_BadInstrP registers are written with
the encoding of the instruction that caused a synchronous exception to
occur, and the prior branch instruction if in a delay slot.

These will be useful for instruction emulation in KVM, and especially
for VZ support where reading guest virtual memory is a bit more awkward.

Add CPU option numbers and cpu_has_* definitions to indicate the
presence of each registers, and add code to probe for them using bits in
the CP0_Config3 register.

<title>MIPS: Add defs &amp; probing of extended CP0_EBase</title>

<id>37fb60f8e3f011c25c120081a73886ad8dbc42fd</id>
<content type='text'>
The CP0_EBase register may optionally have a write gate (WG) bit to
allow the upper bits to be written, i.e. bits 31:30 on MIPS32 since r3
(to allow for an exception base outside of KSeg0/KSeg1 when segmentation
control is in use) and bits 63:30 on MIPS64 (which also implies the
extension of CP0_EBase to 64 bits long).

The presence of this feature will need to be known about for VZ support
in order to correctly save and restore all the bits of the guest
CP0_EBase register, so add CPU feature definition and probing for this
feature.

Probing the WG bit on MIPS64 can be a bit fiddly, since 64-bit COP0
register access instructions were UNDEFINED for 32-bit registers prior
to MIPS r6, and it'd be nice to be able to probe without clobbering the
existing state, so there are 3 potential paths:

- If we do a 32-bit read of CP0_EBase and the WG bit is already set, the
  register must be 64-bit.

- On MIPS r6 we can do a 64-bit read-modify-write to set CP0_EBase.WG,
  since the upper bits will read 0 and be ignored on write if the
  register is 32-bit.

- On pre-r6 cores, we do a 32-bit read-modify-write of CP0_EBase. This
  avoids the potentially UNDEFINED behaviour, but will clobber the upper
  32-bits of CP0_EBase if it isn't a simple sign extension (which also
  requires us to ensure BEV=1 or modifying the exception base would be
  UNDEFINED too). It is hopefully unlikely a bootloader would set up
  CP0_EBase to a 64-bit segment and leave WG=0.

<title>MIPS: Separate XPA CPU feature into LPA and MVH</title>

XPA (eXtended Physical Addressing) should be detected as a combination
of two architectural features:
- Large Physical Address (as per Config3.LPA). With XPA this will be set
  on MIPS32r5 cores, but it may also be set for MIPS64r2 cores too.
- MTHC0/MFHC0 instructions (as per Config5.MVH). With XPA this will be
  set, but it may also be set in VZ guest context even when Config3.LPA
  in the guest context has been cleared by the hypervisor.

As such, XPA is only usable if both bits are set. Update CPU features to
separate these two features, with cpu_has_xpa requiring both to be set.
