* KVM: ARM: Power State Coordination Interface implementationMarc Zyngier2013-01-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement the PSCI specification (ARM DEN 0022A) to control virtual CPUs being "powered" on or off. PSCI/KVM is detected using the KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI capability. A virtual CPU can now be initialized in a "powered off" state, using the KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF feature flag. The guest can use either SMC or HVC to execute a PSCI function.

* KVM: ARM: Handle I/O abortsChristoffer Dall2013-01-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the guest accesses I/O memory this will create data abort exceptions and they are handled by decoding the HSR information (physical address, read/write, length, register) and forwarding reads and writes to QEMU which performs the device emulation. Certain classes of load/store operations do not support the syndrome information provided in the HSR. We don't support decoding these (patches are available elsewhere), so we report an error to user space in this case. This requires changing the general flow somewhat since new calls to run the VCPU must check if there's a pending MMIO load and perform the write after userspace has made the data available.

* KVM: ARM: Emulation framework and CP15 emulationChristoffer Dall2013-01-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a new important function in the main KVM/ARM code called handle_exit() which is called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() on returns from guest execution. This function examines the Hyp-Syndrome-Register (HSR), which contains information telling KVM what caused the exit from the guest. Some of the reasons for an exit are CP15 accesses, which are not allowed from the guest and this commit handles these exits by emulating the intended operation in software and skipping the guest instruction. Minor notes about the coproc register reset: 1) We reserve a value of 0 as an invalid cp15 offset, to catch bugs in our table, at cost of 4 bytes per vcpu. 2) Added comments on the table indicating how we handle each register, for simplicity of understanding.

* KVM: ARM: Initial skeleton to compile KVM supportChristoffer Dall2013-01-231-0/+21
Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors. Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some tracing functionality, and basic user space API. Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now. Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.
