[PATCH/RFC] kvm/powerpc: Add new ioctl to retreive support page sizes and encodings

[PATCH/RFC] kvm/powerpc: Add new ioctl to retreive support page sizes and encodings

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

This is necessary for qemu to be able to pass the right information
to the guest, as the supported sizes and encodings can vary depending
on the machine, the type of KVM used (PR vs HV) and the version of KVM

Please comment ASAP. I'm tired of the qemu side never working properly
because of that and our out-of-tree nasty patches we've been carrying
internally, so I'd like to get something like that in real quick :-)

I have the qemu side patches that use this to generate the appropriate
device-tree when available, and use heuristics for the fallback. I'll
post them later, let's agree on the kernel interfaces first.

The heuristics work as long as we have a reasonable guarantee that this
kernel patch will get in -before- any patch that enables the PVINFO
ioctl on "HV" KVM, that way I can rely on the later not working as
a way to differenciate PR and HV KVM if this new ioctl is not supported. 

Note: We probably want an other ioctl for getting other type of
MMU info, such as whether we support 1T segments etc... but I didn't
want to try to kill to many birds at once and end up in bike shed
painting on the mailing list for the next 6 month...

Cheers,
Ben.

What kind of docs do you expect ? Where ? I don't see any of the other
private ioctls we use on ppc documented either...

What kind of docs do you expect ? Where ? I don't see any of the other
private ioctls we use on ppc documented either...

Note also that after more thoughts I decided to make it a more complete
ioctl to retrieve MMU information for Book "S" ppc processors (ie, add
at least the SLB size and expose support for 1T segments), so ditch that
one patch for now, but let me know where you expect the documentation
(next to the arg struct definition ? in a Documentation/* file ?) since
I don't see any for our existing stuff.

Cheers,
Ben.

Thanks !
