KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Improve handling of debug-trigger HMIs on POWER9

Hypervisor maintenance interrupts (HMIs) are generated by various
causes, signalled by bits in the hypervisor maintenance exception
register (HMER). In most cases calling OPAL to handle the interrupt
is the correct thing to do, but the "debug trigger" HMIs signalled by
PPC bit 17 (bit 46) of HMER are used to invoke software workarounds
for hardware bugs, and OPAL does not have any code to handle this
cause. The debug trigger HMI is used in POWER9 DD2.0 and DD2.1 chips
to work around a hardware bug in executing vector load instructions to
cache inhibited memory. In POWER9 DD2.2 chips, it is generated when
conditions are detected relating to threads being in TM (transactional
memory) suspended mode when the core SMT configuration needs to be
reconfigured.

The kernel currently has code to detect the vector CI load condition,
but only when the HMI occurs in the host, not when it occurs in a
guest. If a HMI occurs in the guest, it is always passed to OPAL, and
then we always re-sync the timebase, because the HMI cause might have
been a timebase error, for which OPAL would re-sync the timebase, thus
removing the timebase offset which KVM applied for the guest. Since
we don't know what OPAL did, we don't know whether to subtract the
timebase offset from the timebase, so instead we re-sync the timebase.

This adds code to determine explicitly what the cause of a debug
trigger HMI will be. This is based on a new device-tree property
under the CPU nodes called ibm,hmi-special-triggers, if it is
present, or otherwise based on the PVR (processor version register).
The handling of debug trigger HMIs is pulled out into a separate
function which can be called from the KVM guest exit code. If this
function handles and clears the HMI, and no other HMI causes remain,
then we skip calling OPAL and we proceed to subtract the guest
timebase offset from the timebase.

The overall handling for HMIs that occur in the host (i.e. not in a
KVM guest) is largely unchanged, except that we now don't set the flag
for the vector CI load workaround on DD2.2 processors.

This also removes a BUG_ON in the KVM code. BUG_ON is generally not
useful in KVM guest entry/exit code since it is difficult to handle
the resulting trap gracefully.

powerpc: move hmi.c to arch/powerpc/kvm/

hmi.c functions are unused unless sibling_subcore_state is nonzero, and
that in turn happens only if KVM is in use. So move the code to
arch/powerpc/kvm/, putting it under CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE
rather than CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64. The sibling_subcore_state is also
included in struct paca_struct only if KVM is supported by the kernel.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TB corruption in guest exit path on HMI interrupt

When a guest is assigned to a core it converts the host Timebase (TB)
into guest TB by adding guest timebase offset before entering into
guest. During guest exit it restores the guest TB to host TB. This means
under certain conditions (Guest migration) host TB and guest TB can differ.

When we get an HMI for TB related issues the opal HMI handler would
try fixing errors and restore the correct host TB value. With no guest
running, we don't have any issues. But with guest running on the core
we run into TB corruption issues.

If we get an HMI while in the guest, the current HMI handler invokes opal
hmi handler before forcing guest to exit. The guest exit path subtracts
the guest TB offset from the current TB value which may have already
been restored with host value by opal hmi handler. This leads to incorrect
host and guest TB values.

With split-core, things become more complex. With split-core, TB also gets
split and each subcore gets its own TB register. When a hmi handler fixes
a TB error and restores the TB value, it affects all the TB values of
sibling subcores on the same core. On TB errors all the thread in the core
gets HMI. With existing code, the individual threads call opal hmi handle
independently which can easily throw TB out of sync if we have guest
running on subcores. Hence we will need to co-ordinate with all the
threads before making opal hmi handler call followed by TB resync.

This patch introduces a sibling subcore state structure (shared by all
threads in the core) in paca which holds information about whether sibling
subcores are in Guest mode or host mode. An array in_guest[] of size
MAX_SUBCORE_PER_CORE=4 is used to maintain the state of each subcore.
The subcore id is used as index into in_guest[] array. Only primary
thread entering/exiting the guest is responsible to set/unset its
designated array element.

On TB error, we get HMI interrupt on every thread on the core. Upon HMI,
this patch will now force guest to vacate the core/subcore. Primary
thread from each subcore will then turn off its respective bit
from the above bitmap during the guest exit path just after the
guest->host partition switch is complete.

All other threads that have just exited the guest OR were already in host
will wait until all other subcores clears their respective bit.
Once all the subcores turn off their respective bit, all threads will
will make call to opal hmi handler.

It is not necessary that opal hmi handler would resync the TB value for
every HMI interrupts. It would do so only for the HMI caused due to
TB errors. For rest, it would not touch TB value. Hence to make things
simpler, primary thread would call TB resync explicitly once for each
core immediately after opal hmi handler instead of subtracting guest
offset from TB. TB resync call will restore the TB with host value.
Thus we can be sure about the TB state.

One of the primary threads exiting the guest will take up the
responsibility of calling TB resync. It will use one of the top bits
(bit 63) from subcore state flags bitmap to make the decision. The first
primary thread (among the subcores) that is able to set the bit will
have to call the TB resync. Rest all other threads will wait until TB
resync is complete. Once TB resync is complete all threads will then
proceed.
