powerpc/bpf: Fix DIVWU instruction opcode

2013-10-31T05:19:20+00:00

Currently DIVWU stands for *signed* divw opcode:

7d 2a 4b 96 	divwu   r9,r10,r9
7d 2a 4b d6 	divw    r9,r10,r9

Use the *unsigned* divw opcode for DIVWU.

powerpc: Emulate sync instruction variants

2013-10-16T23:51:18+00:00

Reserved fields of the sync instruction have been used for other
instructions (e.g. lwsync).  On processors that do not support variants
of the sync instruction, emulate it by executing a sync to subsume the
effect of the intended instruction.

powerpc: Little endian builds double word swap VSX state during context save/restore

2013-10-11T05:48:28+00:00

The elements within VSX loads and stores are big endian ordered
regardless of endianness. Our VSX context save/restore code uses
lxvd2x and stxvd2x which is a 2x doubleword operation. This means
the two doublewords will be swapped and we have to perform another
swap to undo it.

We need to do this on save and restore.

powerpc: Move opcode definitions from kvm/emulate.c to asm/ppc-opcode.h

2013-07-30T20:50:07+00:00

Opcode and xopcode are useful definitions not just for KVM. Move these
definitions to asm/ppc-opcode.h for public use.

Also add the opcodes for LHAUX and LWZUX.

powerpc: Emulate non privileged DSCR read and write

2013-05-05T23:25:35+00:00

POWER8 allows read and write of the DSCR in userspace. We added
kernel emulation so applications could always use the instructions
regardless of the CPU type.

Unfortunately there are two SPRs for the DSCR and we only added
emulation for the privileged one. Add code to match the non
privileged one.

A simple test was created to verify the fix:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/user_dscr_test.c

Without the patch we get a SIGILL and it passes with the patch.

powerpc/perf: Add new BHRB related instructions for POWER8

2013-04-26T06:11:11+00:00

This patch adds new POWER8 instruction encoding for reading
and clearing Branch History Rolling Buffer entries. The new
instruction 'mfbhrbe' (move from branch history rolling buffer
entry) is used to read BHRB buffer entries and instruction
'clrbhrb' (clear branch history rolling buffer) is used to
clear the entire buffer. The instruction 'clrbhrb' has straight
forward encoding. But the instruction encoding format for
reading the BHRB entries is like 'mfbhrbe RT, BHRBE' where it
takes two arguments, i.e the index for the BHRB buffer entry to
read and a general purpose register to put the value which was
read from the buffer entry.

powerpc: Add new instructions for transactional memory

2013-02-15T05:58:49+00:00

Here we define the new instructions we need for transactional memory in the
kernel.  This is so we can support compiling with binutils that don't support
the new transactional memory instructions.

Transactional memory results in two sets of architected state (GPRs/VSRs
etc).

treclaim allows us to read the checkpointed state (from the tbegin) so that we
can store it away on a context switch.  It does this by overwriting the exiting
architected state, so you have to save that away before you treclaim.  treclaim
will also abort a transaction, so you can give a register value which contains
an abort reason.

trecheckpoint allows us to inject into the checkpointed state as if it were at
the tbegin.  It does this by copying the current architected state into the
checkpointed state.

powerpc: Define differences between doorbells on book3e and book3s

2013-01-10T04:09:05+00:00

There are a few key differences between doorbells on server compared
with embedded that we care about on Linux, namely:

- We have a new msgsndp instruction for directed privileged doorbells.
  msgsnd is used for directed hypervisor doorbells.
- The tag we use in the instruction is the Thread Identification
  Register of the recipient thread (since server doorbells can only
  occur between threads within a single core), and is only 7 bits wide.
- A new message type is introduced for server doorbells (none of the
  existing book3e message types are currently supported on book3s).

Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc

2012-12-18T17:58:09+00:00

Pull powerpc update from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "The main highlight is probably some base POWER8 support.  There's more
  to come such as transactional memory support but that will wait for
  the next one.

  Overall it's pretty quiet, or rather I've been pretty poor at picking
  things up from patchwork and reviewing them this time around and Kumar
  no better on the FSL side it seems..."
