[PATCH 3.16 071/306] KVM: PPC: Book3S: Treat VTB as a per-subcore register, not per-thread

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.16.40-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 88b02cf97bb7e742db3e31671d54177e3e19fd89 upstream.

POWER8 has one virtual timebase (VTB) register per subcore, not one
per CPU thread.  The HV KVM code currently treats VTB as a per-thread
register, which can lead to spurious soft lockup messages from guests
which use the VTB as the time source for the soft lockup detector.
(CPUs before POWER8 did not have the VTB register.)

For HV KVM, this fixes the problem by making only the primary thread
in each virtual core save and restore the VTB value.  With this,
the VTB state becomes part of the kvmppc_vcore structure.  This
also means that "piggybacking" of multiple virtual cores onto one
subcore is not possible on POWER8, because then the virtual cores
would share a single VTB register.

PR KVM emulates a VTB register, which is per-vcpu because PR KVM
has no notion of CPU threads or SMT.  For PR KVM we move the VTB
state into the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct.
