[PATCH 03/41] powerpc/64: use gas sections for arranging exception vectors

Nicholas Piggin npiggin at gmail.com
Wed Sep 21 17:43:29 AEST 2016


Use assembler sections of fixed size and location to arrange pseries
exception vector code (64e also using it in head_64.S for 0x0..0x100).

This allows better flexibility in arranging exception code and hiding
unimportant details behind macros.

Gas sections can be a bit painful to use this way, mainly because the
assembler does not know where they will be finally linked. Taking
absolute addresses requires a bit of trickery for example, but it can
be hidden behind macros for the most part.

Generated code is mostly the same except locations, offsets, alignments.

+ * Following are the BOOK3S exception handler helper macros.
+ * Handlers come in a number of types, and each type has a number of varieties.
+ *
+ * VECTOR_HANDLER_REAL_* - real, unrelocated exception vectors
+ * VECTOR_HANDLER_VIRT_* - virt (AIL), unrelocated exception vectors
+ * TRAMP_HANDLER_*       - real, unrelocated helpers (virt can call these)
+ * VTRAMP_HANDLER_*      - virt, unreloc helpers (in practice, real can use)
+ * TRAMP_KVM             - KVM handlers that get put into real, unrelocated
+ * COMMON_HANDLER_*      - virt, relocated common handlers
+ *
+ * The VECTOR_HANDLERs are given a name, and branch to name_common, or the
+ * appropriate KVM or masking function. Vector handler verieties are as
+ * follows:
+ *
+ * VECTOR_HANDLER_{REAL|VIRT}_BEGIN/END - used to open-code the exception
+ *
+ * VECTOR_HANDLER_{REAL|VIRT}  - standard exception
+ *
+ * VECTOR_HANDLER_{REAL|VIRT}_suffix
+ *     where _suffix is:
+ *   - _MASKABLE               - maskable exception
+ *   - _OOL                    - out of line with trampoline to common handler
+ *   - _HV                     - HV exception
+ *
+ * There can be combinations, e.g., VECTOR_HANDLER_VIRT_OOL_MASKABLE_HV
+ *
+ * The one unusual case is __VECTOR_HANDLER_REAL_OOL_HV_DIRECT, which is
+ * an OOL vector that branches to a specified handler rather than the usual
+ * trampoline that goes to common. It, and other underscore macros, should
+ * be used with care.
+ *
+ * KVM handlers come in the following verieties:
+ * TRAMP_KVM
+ * TRAMP_KVM_SKIP
+ * TRAMP_KVM_HV
+ * TRAMP_KVM_HV_SKIP
+ *
+ * COMMON handlers come in the following verieties:
+ * COMMON_HANDLER_BEGIN/END - used to open-code the handler
+ * COMMON_HANDLER
+ * COMMON_HANDLER_ASYNC
+ * COMMON_HANDLER_HV
+ *
+ * TRAMP_HANDLER and VTRAMP_HANDLER can be used with BEGIN/END. KVM
+ * and OOL handlers are implemented as types of TRAMP and VTRAMP handlers.

+ * - Virtual mode exceptions must be mapped at their  0xc000... location.
+ * - Fixed location code must not call directly beyond the __end_interrupts
+ *   area when built with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. LOAD_HANDLER / bctr sequence
+ *   must be used.
+ * - LOAD_HANDLER targets must be within first 64K of physical 0 /

+ * - Conditional branch targets must be within +/-32K of caller.
+ *
+ * "Virtual exceptions" run with relocation on (MSR_IR=1, MSR_DR=1), and
+ * therefore don't have to run in physically located code or rfid to
+ * virtual mode kernel code. However on relocatable kernels they do have
+ * to branch to KERNELBASE offset because the rest of the kernel (outside
+ * the exception vectors) may be located elsewhere.
+ *
+ * Virtual exceptions correspond with physical, except their entry points
+ * are offset by 0xc000000000000000 and also tend to get an added 0x4000
+ * offset applied. Virtual exceptions are enabled with the Alternate
+ * Interrupt Location (AIL) bit set in the LPCR. However this does not
+ * guarantee they will be delivered virtually. Some conditions (see the ISA)
+ * cause exceptions to be delivered in real mode.
+ *
+ * It's impossible to receive interrupts below 0x300 via AIL.
+ *
+ * KVM: None of these traps are from the guest ; anything that escalated
+ * to HV=1 from HV=0 is delivered via real mode handlers.
+ *
