KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Support reset of secure guest

Add support for reset of secure guest via a new ioctl KVM_PPC_SVM_OFF.
This ioctl will be issued by QEMU during reset and includes the
the following steps:

- Release all device pages of the secure guest.
- Ask UV to terminate the guest via UV_SVM_TERMINATE ucall
- Unpin the VPA pages so that they can be migrated back to secure
side when guest becomes secure again. This is required because
pinned pages can't be migrated.
- Reinit the partition scoped page tables

After these steps, guest is ready to issue UV_ESM call once again
to switch to secure mode.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Radix changes for secure guest

- After the guest becomes secure, when we handle a page fault of a page
belonging to SVM in HV, send that page to UV via UV_PAGE_IN.
- Whenever a page is unmapped on the HV side, inform UV via UV_PAGE_INVAL.
- Ensure all those routines that walk the secondary page tables of
the guest don't do so in case of secure VM. For secure guest, the
active secondary page tables are in secure memory and the secondary
page tables in HV are freed when guest becomes secure.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Support for running secure guests

A pseries guest can be run as secure guest on Ultravisor-enabled
POWER platforms. On such platforms, this driver will be used to manage
the movement of guest pages between the normal memory managed by
hypervisor (HV) and secure memory managed by Ultravisor (UV).

HV is informed about the guest's transition to secure mode via hcalls:

H_SVM_INIT_START: Initiate securing a VM
H_SVM_INIT_DONE: Conclude securing a VM

As part of H_SVM_INIT_START, register all existing memslots with
the UV. H_SVM_INIT_DONE call by UV informs HV that transition of
the guest to secure mode is complete.

These two states (transition to secure mode STARTED and transition
to secure mode COMPLETED) are recorded in kvm->arch.secure_guest.
Setting these states will cause the assembly code that enters the
guest to call the UV_RETURN ucall instead of trying to enter the
guest directly.

Migration of pages betwen normal and secure memory of secure
guest is implemented in H_SVM_PAGE_IN and H_SVM_PAGE_OUT hcalls.

H_SVM_PAGE_IN: Move the content of a normal page to secure page
H_SVM_PAGE_OUT: Move the content of a secure page to normal page

Private ZONE_DEVICE memory equal to the amount of secure memory
available in the platform for running secure guests is created.
Whenever a page belonging to the guest becomes secure, a page from
this private device memory is used to represent and track that secure
page on the HV side. The movement of pages between normal and secure
memory is done via migrate_vma_pages() using UV_PAGE_IN and
UV_PAGE_OUT ucalls.

In order to prevent the device private pages (that correspond to pages
of secure guest) from participating in KSM merging, H_SVM_PAGE_IN
calls ksm_madvise() under read version of mmap_sem. However
ksm_madvise() needs to be under write lock. Hence we call
kvmppc_svm_page_in with mmap_sem held for writing, and it then
downgrades to a read lock after calling ksm_madvise.

mmap_sem when calling ksm_madvise"]

powerpc/pseries/svm: Unshare all pages before kexecing a new kernel

A new kernel deserves a clean slate. Any pages shared with the hypervisor
is unshared before invoking the new kernel. However there are exceptions.
If the new kernel is invoked to dump the current kernel, or if there is a
explicit request to preserve the state of the current kernel, unsharing
of pages is skipped.

NOTE: While testing crashkernel, make sure at least 256M is reserved for
crashkernel. Otherwise SWIOTLB allocation will fail and crash kernel will
fail to boot.

powerpc/mm: Write to PTCR only if ultravisor disabled

In ultravisor enabled systems, PTCR becomes ultravisor privileged only
for writing and an attempt to write to it will cause a Hypervisor
Emulation Assitance interrupt.

This patch uses the set_ptcr_when_no_uv() function to restrict PTCR
writing to only when ultravisor is disabled.

# 139a1d28 21-Aug-2019 Michael Anderson <andmike@linux.ibm.com>

powerpc/mm: Use UV_WRITE_PATE ucall to register a PATE

When Ultravisor (UV) is enabled, the partition table is stored in secure
memory and can only be accessed via the UV. The Hypervisor (HV) however
maintains a copy of the partition table in normal memory to allow Nest MMU
translations to occur (for normal VMs). The HV copy includes partition
table entries (PATE)s for secure VMs which would currently be unused
(Nest MMU translations cannot access secure memory) but they would be
needed as we add functionality.

This patch adds the UV_WRITE_PATE ucall which is used to update the PATE
for a VM (both normal and secure) when Ultravisor is enabled.

powerpc/powernv: Introduce FW_FEATURE_ULTRAVISOR

In PEF enabled systems, some of the resources which were previously
hypervisor privileged are now ultravisor privileged and controlled by
the ultravisor firmware.

This adds FW_FEATURE_ULTRAVISOR to indicate if PEF is enabled.

The host kernel can use FW_FEATURE_ULTRAVISOR, for instance, to skip
accessing resources (e.g. PTCR and LDBAR) in case PEF is enabled.
