Why is there no interface to clear the SCA_UTILITY_MTCR on a subsystem reset?

Right, I had one in my first version based on interception but I forgot to implement an equivalent for KVM as I modified the implementation for interpretation.
I will add this.



-void kvm_arch_vcpu_load(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, int cpu)
+/**
+ * kvm_s390_vcpu_set_mtcr
+ * @vcp: the virtual CPU
+ *
+ * Is only relevant if the topology facility is present.
+ *
+ * Updates the Multiprocessor Topology-Change-Report to signal
+ * the guest with a topology change.
+ */
+static void kvm_s390_vcpu_set_mtcr(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
   {
+       struct esca_block *esca = vcpu->kvm->arch.sca;

utility is at the same offset for the bsca and the esca, still
wondering whether it is a good idea to assume esca here...

We can take bsca to be coherent with the include file where we define
ESCA_UTILITY_MTCR inside the bsca.
And we can rename the define to SCA_UTILITY_MTCR as it is common for
both BSCA and ESCA the (E) is too much.

Yes and maybe add a comment that it's at the same offset for esca so there won't come up further questions in the future.

OK

Why is it OK to look just at the physical package ID here? What if the
vcpu for example moves to a different book, which has a core with the
same physical package ID?

I'll need to look up stsi 15* output to understand this.
But the architecture states that any change to the stsi 15 output sets the change bit so I'd guess Nico is correct.


Yes, Nico is correct, as I already answered, however it is not any change of stsi(15) but a change of stsi(15.1.2) output which sets the change bit.

hum, that is what the POP says but in fact you are right a change of topology that changes the output of any STSI(15) sets the topology change report bit as the output of STSI(15.1.2) would be changed too obviously.

Pierre
