Avoid two step jump to the error handling part. This eliminates the use
of the variables present and rsvd_fault.
We also use the const type qualifier to show that write/user/fetch_fault
do not change in the function.
Both of these were suggested by Ingo Molnar.

Dynamically assign host PIDs to guest PIDs, splitting each guest PID into
multiple host (shadow) PIDs based on kernel/user and MSR[IS/DS]. Use
both PID0 and PID1 so that the shadow PIDs for the right mode can be
selected, that correspond both to guest TID = zero and guest TID = guest
PID.
This allows us to significantly reduce the frequency of needing to
invalidate the entire TLB. When the guest mode or PID changes, we just
update the host PID0/PID1. And since the allocation of shadow PIDs is
global, multiple guests can share the TLB without conflict.
Note that KVM does not yet support the guest setting PID1 or PID2 to
a value other than zero. This will need to be fixed for nested KVM
to work. Until then, we enforce the requirement for guest PID1/PID2
to stay zero by failing the emulation if the guest tries to set them
to something else.

This allows large pages to be used on guest mappings backed by things like
/dev/mem, resulting in a significant speedup when guest memory
is mapped this way (it's useful for directly-assigned MMIO, too).
This is not a substitute for hugetlbfs integration, but is useful for
configurations where devices are directly assigned on chips without an
IOMMU -- in these cases, we need guest physical and true physical to
match, and be contiguous, so static reservation and mapping via /dev/mem
is the most straightforward way to set things up.

Since TLB1 loading doesn't check the shadow TLB before allocating another
entry, you can get duplicates.
Once shadow PIDs are enabled in a later patch, we won't need to
invalidate the TLB on every switch, so this optimization won't be
needed anyway.

This is done lazily. The SPE save will be done only if the guest has
used SPE since the last preemption or heavyweight exit. Restore will be
done only on demand, when enabling MSR_SPE in the shadow MSR, in response
to an SPE fault or mtmsr emulation.
For SPEFSCR, Linux already switches it on context switch (non-lazily), so
the only remaining bit is to save it between qemu and the guest.

Keep the guest MSR and the guest-mode true MSR separate, rather than
modifying the guest MSR on each guest entry to produce a true MSR.
Any bits which should be modified based on guest MSR must be explicitly
propagated from vcpu->arch.shared->msr to vcpu->arch.shadow_msr in
kvmppc_set_msr().
While we're modifying the guest entry code, reorder a few instructions
to bury some load latencies.

Previously, these macros hardcoded THREAD_EVR0 as the base of the save
area, relative to the base register passed. This base offset is now

giveup_spe() saves the SPE state which is protected by MSR[SPE].
However, modifying SPEFSCR does not trap when MSR[SPE]=0.
And since SPEFSCR is already saved/restored in _switch(),
not all the callers want to save SPEFSCR again.
Thus, saving SPEFSCR should not belong to giveup_spe().
This patch moves SPEFSCR saving to flush_spe_to_thread(),
and cleans up the caller that needs to save SPEFSCR accordingly.

Up until now, Book3S KVM had variables stored in the kernel that a kernel module
or the kvm code in the kernel could read from to figure out where some real mode
helper functions are located.
This is all unnecessary. The high bits of the EA get ignore in real mode, so we
can just use the pointer as is. Also, it's a lot easier on relocations when we
use the normal way of resolving the address to a function, instead of jumping
through hoops.
This patch fixes compilation with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

When CR0.WP=0, we sometimes map user pages as kernel pages (to allow

KVM has an ioctl to define which signal mask should be used while running
inside VCPU_RUN. At least for big endian systems, this mask is different

Add a compat wrapper that converts the mask to whatever the kernel accepts,
allowing 32-bit kvm user space to set signal masks.

The nested VMX feature is supposed to fully emulate VMX for the guest. This
(theoretically) not only allows it to run its own guests, but also also
to further emulate VMX for its own guests, and allow arbitrarily deep nesting.
This patch fixes a bug (discovered by Kevin Tian) in handling a VMLAUNCH
by L2, which prevented deeper nesting.
Deeper nesting now works (I only actually tested L3), but is currently
*absurdly* slow, to the point of being unusable.
