There is no need for this function as all arches have to implement
kvm_arch_create_vcpu_debugfs() no matter what.  A #define symbol
let us actually simplify the code.

kvm_compute_return_epc contains a switch statement with an intentional
fall-through from a case handling jal (jump and link) instructions to
one handling j (jump) instructions. With -Wimplicit-fallthrough this
triggers a compile error (due to -Werror being enabled for arch/mips).

This can be reproduced using malta_kvm_defconfig.

Fix this by annotating the intentional fall-through.

<title>KVM: Directly return result from kvm_arch_check_processor_compat()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f257d6dcda0187693407e0c2e5dab69bdab3223f</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a wrapper to invoke kvm_arch_check_processor_compat() so that the
boilerplate ugliness of checking virtualization support on all CPUs is
hidden from the arch specific code.  x86's implementation in particular
is quite heinous, as it unnecessarily propagates the out-param pattern
into kvm_x86_ops.

While the x86 specific issue could be resolved solely by changing
kvm_x86_ops, make the change for all architectures as returning a value
directly is prettier and technically more robust, e.g. s390 doesn't set
the out param, which could lead to subtle breakage in the (highly
unlikely) scenario where the out-param was not pre-initialized by the
caller.

Opportunistically annotate svm_check_processor_compat() with __init.

<title>KVM: s390: Do not report unusabled IDs via KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a86cb413f4bf273a9d341a3ab2c2ca44e12eb317</id>
<content type='text'>
KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID is currently always reporting KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID on all
architectures. However, on s390x, the amount of usable CPUs is determined
during runtime - it is depending on the features of the machine the code
is running on. Since we are using the vcpu_id as an index into the SCA
structures that are defined by the hardware (see e.g. the sca_add_vcpu()
function), it is not only the amount of CPUs that is limited by the hard-
ware, but also the range of IDs that we can use.
Thus KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID must be determined during runtime on s390x, too.
So the handling of KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID has to be moved from the common
code into the architecture specific code, and on s390x we have to return
the same value here as for KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS.
This problem has been discovered with the kvm_create_max_vcpus selftest.
With this change applied, the selftest now passes on s390x, too.

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:

 - A set of memblock initialization improvements thanks to Serge Semin,
   tidying up after our conversion from bootmem to memblock back in
   v4.20.

 - Our eBPF JIT the previously supported only MIPS64r2 through MIPS64r5
   is improved to also support MIPS64r6. Support for MIPS32 systems is
   introduced, with the caveat that it only works for programs that
   don't use 64 bit registers or operations - those will bail out &amp; need
   to be interpreted.

 - Improvements to the allocation &amp; configuration of our exception
   vector that should fix issues seen on some platforms using recent
   versions of U-Boot.

 - Some minor improvements to code generated for jump labels, along with
   enabling them by default for generic kernels.

<title>MIPS: KVM: Use prandom_u32_max() to generate tlbwr index</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e6331a321aafcc291a60ceedf4d6b0051a6117ca</id>
<content type='text'>
Emulation of the tlbwr instruction, which writes a TLB entry to a random
index in the TLB, currently uses get_random_bytes() to generate a 4 byte
random number which we then mask to form the index. This is overkill in
a couple of ways:

  - We don't need 4 bytes here since we mask the value to form a 6 bit
    number anyway, so we waste /dev/random entropy generating 3 random
    bytes that are unused.

  - We don't need crypto-grade randomness here - the architecture spec
    allows implementations to use any algorithm &amp; merely encourages that
    some pseudo-randomness be used rather than a simple counter. The
    fast prandom_u32() function fits that criteria well.

So rather than using get_random_bytes() &amp; consuming /dev/random entropy,
switch to using the faster prandom_u32_max() which provides what we need
here whilst also performing the masking/modulo for us.

<title>MIPS: MemoryMapID (MMID) Support</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/BMC/Intel-BMC/linux.git/commit/?id=c8790d657b0a8d42801fb4536f6f106b4b6306e8'/>
<id>urn:sha1:c8790d657b0a8d42801fb4536f6f106b4b6306e8</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce support for using MemoryMapIDs (MMIDs) as an alternative to
Address Space IDs (ASIDs). The major difference between the two is that
MMIDs are global - ie. an MMID uniquely identifies an address space
across all coherent CPUs. In contrast ASIDs are non-global per-CPU IDs,
wherein each address space is allocated a separate ASID for each CPU
upon which it is used. This global namespace allows a new GINVT
instruction be used to globally invalidate TLB entries associated with a
particular MMID across all coherent CPUs in the system, removing the
need for IPIs to invalidate entries with separate ASIDs on each CPU.

The allocation scheme used here is largely borrowed from arm64 (see
arch/arm64/mm/context.c). In essence we maintain a bitmap to track
available MMIDs, and MMIDs in active use at the time of a rollover to a
new MMID version are preserved in the new version. The allocation scheme
requires efficient 64 bit atomics in order to perform reasonably, so
this support depends upon CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64=n (ie. currently it
will only be included in MIPS64 kernels).

The first, and currently only, available CPU with support for MMIDs is
the MIPS I6500. This CPU supports 16 bit MMIDs, and so for now we cap
our MMIDs to 16 bits wide in order to prevent the bitmap growing to
absurd sizes if any future CPU does implement 32 bit MMIDs as the
architecture manuals suggest is recommended.

When MMIDs are in use we also make use of GINVT instruction which is
available due to the global nature of MMIDs. By executing a sequence of
GINVT &amp; SYNC 0x14 instructions we can avoid the overhead of an IPI to
each remote CPU in many cases. One complication is that GINVT will
invalidate wired entries (in all cases apart from type 0, which targets
the entire TLB). In order to avoid GINVT invalidating any wired TLB
entries we set up, we make sure to create those entries using a reserved
MMID (0) that we never associate with any address space.

Also of note is that KVM will require further work in order to support
MMIDs &amp; GINVT, since KVM is involved in allocating IDs for guests &amp; in
configuring the MMU. That work is not part of this patch, so for now
when MMIDs are in use KVM is disabled.
