When running a nested (L2) guest the guest (L1) hypervisor will use the H_TLB_INVALIDATE hcall when it needs to change the partition scoped page tables or the partition table which it manages. It will use this hcall in the situations where it would use a partition-scoped tlbie instruction if it were running in hypervisor mode. The H_TLB_INVALIDATE hcall can invalidate different scopes: Invalidate TLB for a given target address: - This invalidates a single L2 -> L1 pte - We need to invalidate any L2 -> L0 shadow_pgtable ptes which map the L2 address space which is being invalidated. This is because a single L2 -> L1 pte may have been mapped with more than one pte in the L2 -> L0 page tables. Invalidate the entire TLB for a given LPID or for all LPIDs: - Invalidate the entire shadow_pgtable for a given nested guest, or for all nested guests. Invalidate the PWC (page walk cache) for a given LPID or for all LPIDs: - We don't cache the PWC, so nothing to do. Invalidate the entire TLB, PWC and partition table for a given/all LPIDs: - Here we re-read the partition table entry and remove the nested state for any nested guest for which the first doubleword of the partition table entry is now zero. The H_TLB_INVALIDATE hcall takes as parameters the tlbie instruction word (of which only the RIC, PRS and R fields are used), the rS value (giving the lpid, where required) and the rB value (giving the IS, AP and EPN values). [paulus@ozlabs.org - adapted to having the partition table in guest memory, added the H_TLB_INVALIDATE implementation, removed tlbie instruction emulation, reworded the commit message.] Reviewed-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Suraj Jitindar Singh <sjitindarsingh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
