This aims to add a test infrastructure for the in-kernel instruction
emulation code. This is currently limited to testing only the basic
integer operations and supports verification of the GPRs, LR, XER and
CR.

There can be multiple test cases for each instruction. Each test case
has to be provided with the initial register state (in the form of a
struct pt_regs) and the 32-bit instruction to test.

Apart from verifying the end result, problems with the behaviour of
certain instructions for things like setting certain bits in CR or
XER (which can also be processor dependent) can be identified.
For example, the newly introduced CA32 bit in XER, exclusive to P9
CPUs as of now, was not being set when expected for some of the
arithmetic and shift instructions. With this infrastructure, it will
be easier to identify such problems and rectify them. The test cases
for the addc[.] instruction demonstrate this for different scenarios
where the CA and CA32 bits of XER should be set.

This adds the bitmask definitions of D, SI and UI fields
found in D-form instructions.

This adds the bitmask definition for the Record bit that
is available at the end (bit 31) of some instructions.

This adds a selftest framework for the in-kernel instruction
emulation infrastructure. This currently does not support the
load/store and branch instructions and is limited to integer
ALU instructions. Support for SPRs is also limited to LR, CR
and XER for now.

Tests run at boot time if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, CONFIG_PPC64
and CONFIG_EMULATE_STEP_SELFTEST were set before the kernel
build.

When writing the tests, one must not use any instructions
that might overwrite the Stack Pointer (GPR1) or the Thread
Pointer (GPR13).

Hi Sandipan,

I'm not really confident to review the asm, but I did have a couple of
questions about the C:

> +#define MAX_INSNS	32
This doesn't seem to be used...

> +int execute_instr(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned int instr)
> +{
> +	extern unsigned int exec_instr_execute[];
> +	extern int exec_instr(struct pt_regs *regs);

These externs sit inside the function scope. This feels less than ideal
to me - is there a reason not to have these at global scope?

> +late_initcall(run_sstep_tests);
A design question: is there a reason to run these as an initcall rather
than as a module that could either be built in or loaded separately? I'm
not saying you have to do this, but I was wondering if you had
considered it?

Lastly, snowpatch reports some checkpatch issues for this and your
remaining patches: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1035683/ (You are
allowed to violate checkpatch rules with justification, FWIW)

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Sandipan,

I don't know what this bit pattern is supposed to represent - is it
supposed to be the smallest 32bit integer and the smallest 64bit
integer 8000000080000000 - so you test 32 and 64 bit overflow at the
same time? 


For the series:
Tested-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> # Power8 LE

I notice the output is quite verbose, and doesn't include a line when it
starts:

[    0.826181] Running code patching self-tests ...
[    0.826607] Running feature fixup self-tests ...
[    0.826615] nop     : R0 = LONG_MAX                                      [PASS]
[    0.826617] add     : RA = LONG_MIN, RB = LONG_MIN                       [PASS]

Maybe it would be good to include a line saying "Running single-step
emulation self-tests" and perhaps by default on printing when there is a
failure.

Finally, I think you might be able to squash patches 1 and 2 and patches
4 and 5, but that's just my personal preference.

Regards,
Daniel

I forgot to mention this in my other emails - I think this is a really
good idea, thank you for doing it.

Yes, exactly.

That makes sense. Will include it in the next revision.

True. Thanks for pointing this out.

Currently, execute_instr() is the only consumer. So, I thought I'd keep
them local for now.

I did. As of now, there are some existing tests in test_emulate_step.c
which use the same approach. So, I thought I'd stick with that approach
to start off. This is anyway controlled by a Kconfig option.

Will look into them.
