* powerpc/booke64: Use SPRG0/3 scratch for bolted TLB miss & crit intMihai Caraman2012-09-051-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Embedded.Hypervisor category defines GSPRG0..3 physical registers for guests. Avoid SPRG4-7 usage as scratch in host exception handlers, otherwise guest SPRG4-7 registers will be clobbered. For bolted TLB miss exception handlers, which is the version currently supported by KVM, use SPRN_SPRG_GEN_SCRATCH aka SPRG0 instead of SPRN_SPRG_TLB_SCRATCH aka SPRG6. Keep using TLB PACA slots to fit in one 64-byte cache line. For critical exception handlers use SPRG3 instead of SPRG7. Provide a routine to store and restore user-visible SPRGs. This will be subsequently used to restore VDSO information in SPRG3. Add EX_R13 to paca slots to free up SPRG3 and change the critical exception epilog to use it.

* powerpc/booke64: Use GSRR registers in Guest Doorbell interruptsMihai Caraman2012-09-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Guest Doorbell interrupts use guest save and restore registers. Add a new Guest Doorbell exception type to accommodate GSRR0/1 SPRs usage in exception prolog and fix the exception handler.

* powerpc/book3e-64: use a separate TLB handler when linear map is boltedScott Wood2011-06-291-18/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On MMUs such as FSL where we can guarantee the entire linear mapping is bolted, we don't need to worry about linear TLB misses. If on top of that we do a full table walk, we get rid of all recursive TLB faults, and can dispense with some state saving. This gains a few percent on TLB-miss-heavy workloads, and around 50% on a benchmark that had a high rate of virtual page table faults under the normal handler. While touching the EX_TLB layout, remove EX_TLB_MMUCR0, EX_TLB_SRR0, and EX_TLB_SRR1 as they're not used.

* powerpc/book3e-64: Add helper function to setup IVORsKumar Gala2009-08-281-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Not all 64-bit Book-3E parts will have fixed IVORs so add a function that cpusetup code can call to setup the base IVORs (0..15) to match the fixed offsets. We need to 'or' part of interrupt_base_book3e into the IVORs since on parts that have them the IVPR doesn't extend as far down.

* powerpc: Add definitions used by exception handling on 64-bit Book3EBenjamin Herrenschmidt2009-08-201-0/+201
This adds various definitions and macros used by the exception and TLB miss handling on 64-bit BookE It also adds the definitions of the SPRGs used for various exception types Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
