Second PPC KVM update for 4.16

Seven fixes that are either trivial or that address bugs that people
are actually hitting.  The main ones are:

- Drop spinlocks before reading guest memory

- Fix a bug causing corruption of VCPU state in PR KVM with preemption
  enabled

- Make HPT resizing work on POWER9

- Add MMIO emulation for vector loads and stores, because guests now
  use these instructions in memcpy and similar routines.

Commit 76d837a4c0f9 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Don't include SPAPR TCE code
on non-pseries platforms") added a reference to the globally undefined
symbol PPC_SERIES. Looking at the rest of the commit, PPC_PSERIES was
probably intended.

Change PPC_SERIES to PPC_PSERIES.

Discovered with the

After the vcpu_load/vcpu_put pushdown, the handling of asynchronous VCPU
ioctl is already much clearer in that it is obvious that they bypass
vcpu_load and vcpu_put.

However, it is still not perfect in that the different state of the VCPU
mutex is still hidden in the caller.  Separate those ioctls into a new
function kvm_arch_vcpu_async_ioctl that returns -ENOIOCTLCMD for more
"traditional" synchronous ioctls.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Commit e91aa8e6ecd5 ("KVM: PPC: Enable IOMMU_API for KVM_BOOK3S_64
permanently", 2017-03-22) enabled the SPAPR TCE code for all 64-bit
Book 3S kernel configurations in order to simplify the code and
reduce #ifdefs.  However, 64-bit Book 3S PPC platforms other than
pseries and powernv don't implement the necessary IOMMU callbacks,
leading to build failures like the following (for a pasemi config):

scripts/kconfig/conf  --silentoldconfig Kconfig
warning: (KVM_BOOK3S_64) selects SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU which has unmet direct dependencies (IOMMU_SUPPORT &amp;&amp; (PPC_POWERNV || PPC_PSERIES))

...

  CC [M]  arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_vio.o
/home/paulus/kernel/kvm/arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_vio.c: In function ‘kvmppc_clear_tce’:
/home/paulus/kernel/kvm/arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_vio.c:363:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘iommu_tce_xchg’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  iommu_tce_xchg(tbl, entry, &amp;hpa, &amp;dir);
  ^

To fix this, we make the inclusion of the SPAPR TCE support, and the
code that uses it in book3s_vio.c and book3s_vio_hv.c, depend on
the inclusion of support for the pseries and/or powernv platforms.
This means that when running a 'pseries' guest on those platforms,
the guest won't have in-kernel acceleration of the PAPR TCE hypercalls,
but at least now they compile.

This patch makes KVM capable of using the XIVE interrupt controller
to provide the standard PAPR "XICS" style hypercalls. It is necessary
for proper operations when the host uses XIVE natively.

This has been lightly tested on an actual system, including PCI
pass-through with a TG3 device.

It does not make much sense to have KVM in book3s-64 and
not to have IOMMU bits for PCI pass through support as it costs little
and allows VFIO to function on book3s KVM.

Having IOMMU_API always enabled makes it unnecessary to have a lot of
"#ifdef IOMMU_API" in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_vio*. With those
ifdef's we could have only user space emulated devices accelerated
(but not VFIO) which do not seem to be very useful.

<id>urn:sha1:4b3d173d0440d37534906b6d93c02dfb577c68ce</id>
<content type='text'>
As discussed recently on the kvm mailing list, David Gibson's
intention in commit 178a78750212 ("vfio: Enable VFIO device for
powerpc", 2016-02-01) was to have the KVM VFIO device built in
on all powerpc platforms.  This patch adds the "select KVM_VFIO"
statement that makes this happen.

Currently, arch/powerpc/kvm/Makefile doesn't include vfio.o for
the 64-bit kvm module, because the list of objects doesn't use
the $(common-objs-y) list.  The reason it doesn't is because we
don't necessarily want coalesced_mmio.o or emulate.o (for example
if HV KVM is the only target), and common-objs-y includes both.

Since this is confusing, this patch adjusts the definitions so that
we now use $(common-objs-y) in the list for the 64-bit kvm.ko
module, emulate.o is removed from common-objs-y and added in the
places that need it, and the inclusion of coalesced_mmio.o now
depends on CONFIG_KVM_MMIO.
