This patchset primarily adds guest Floating Point Unit (FPU) and MIPS
SIMD Architecture (MSA) support to MIPS KVM, by enabling the host
FPU/MSA while in guest mode.
This patchset depends on Paul Burton's FP/MSA fixes patchset, which will
hopefully make it into 4.0. I'd like to get this into 4.1, so all review
comments welcome. Corresponding QEMU patches will follow soon.
- Adds KVM_CAP_MIPS_FPU and KVM_CAP_MIPS_MSA capabilities which must be
enabled to add FPU/MSA to the guest.
- Supports FR=0, FR=1, FRE=1 floating point register modes and 128-bit
vector registers.
- Does not support UFR/UFE (guest user control of FR/FRE bits), or MSA
vector partitioning.
- Context restore is lazy: done on first actual use.
- Context save is lazy: once restored, host FPU/MSA gets
enabled/disabled when guest enables/disables it, with registers left
loaded as long as possible.
- So the state that can be loaded at any one time is:
- No FPRs/vector state
- FR=0 FPRs (change of FR discards FP state)
- FR=1 FPRs
- Vector state (includes FR=1 FPRs)
- Vector state only (when guest CU1=0, FR=0)
- FCSR/MSACSR status registers are saved/restored around guest
execution, since care must be taken to handle FP exceptions when
writing these registers.
The patches are arranged roughly in groups:
- Patch 1 is a related minimal stable fix which can be applied in
advance of the others (patch 18 fills it out a bit).
- Patch 2 is a generic MIPS change required to be able to restore
FCSR/MSACSR registers with exceptions pending.
- Patches 3..10 add various misc KVM improvements and cleanups, most of
which the later patches depend on.
- Patches 11..15 add the main guest FPU support.
- Patches 16..20 add the main guest MSA support (structured like 11.15).
