[PATCH 0/2] Require hypervisor privilege for tlbie[l] when PSR=0 and HR=1.
Posted by matheus.ferst@eldorado.org.br 2 years, 7 months ago
From: Matheus Ferst <matheus.ferst@eldorado.org.br>

While working on FreeBSD radix support, Leandro Lupori (CC'ed) noticed
that the latest build still fails in KVM but works in TCG[1]. This
difference occurs because the current implementation of "tlbiel" does
not validate the instruction parameters and always check for supervisor
privilege.

This patch series partially address this problem by requiring hypervisor
privilege for radix mode when PSR=0. The validation of other parameters
can be done when we move storage control instructions to decodetree.

[1] To reproduce the issue, grab an ISO from [2] run qemu as

qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu power9 -m 2G \
    -machine pseries,cap-cfpc=broken,cap-sbbc=broken,cap-ibs=broken,cap-ccf-assist=off \
    -boot d -vga none -nographic -cdrom FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-powerpc-*.iso

or

qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu power9 -m 2G -enable-kvm \
    -machine pseries,cap-cfpc=broken,cap-sbbc=broken,cap-ibs=broken,cap-ccf-assist=off \
    -boot d -vga none -nographic -cdrom FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-powerpc-*.iso

Stop the boot at the prompt and use

OK set radix_mmu=1
OK boot
