Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH v3 6/7] ARM: extend non-secure switch to also go into HYP mode

Hello Andre,



 -#ifdef CONFIG_ARMV7_NONSEC

  enum nonsec_virt_errors {

 + VIRT_ALREADY_HYP_MODE,
 + VIRT_ERR_NO_VIRT_EXT,
 + VIRT_ERR_NOT_HYP_MODE
  };

This looks weird to me.
If you want to use enum, why don't you separate it like follows? 

enum nonsec_errors {
NONSEC_SUCCESS,
NONSEC_ERR_NO_SEC_EXT,
NONSEC_ERR_NO_GIC_ADDRESS,
NONSEC_ERR_GIC_ADDRESS_ABOVE_4GB,
};

enum virt_errors {
VIRT_SUCCESS,
VIRT_ALREADY_HYP_MODE,
VIRT_ERR_NO_VIRT_EXT,
VIRT_ERR_NOT_HYP_MODE
};


  enum nonsec_virt_errors armv7_switch_nonsec(void);
 +enum nonsec_virt_errors armv7_switch_hyp(void);

enum nonsec_errors armv7_switch_nonsec(void);
+enum virt_errors armv7_switch_hyp(void);


But in the first place,
I like better to fix do_nonsec_virt_switch().

As for this part, I agreed on Christoffer's opinion:

 I won't hold back my ack for the patch series based on this, but I do
 think it's over-engineered.  I think at least just returning -1 for
 error and 0 for success (or even make it a bool) and just printing a
 generic error message is cleaner - the level of details as to why the
 switch to hyp/nonsec didn't work could then be debug statements that a
 board developer could enable with a #define DEBUG 1 in the
 corresponding file.

While doing the non-secure switch, we have to enable the HVC
instruction and setup the HYP mode HVBAR (while still secure).

The actual switch is done by dropping back from a HYP mode handler
without actually leaving HYP mode, so we introduce a new handler
routine in our new secure exception vector table.

In the assembly switching routine we save and restore the banked LR
and SP registers around the hypercall to do the actual HYP mode
switch.

The C routine first checks whether we are in HYP mode already and
also whether the virtualization extensions are available. It also
checks whether the HYP mode switch was finally successful.
The bootm command part only adds and adjusts some error reporting.

this comment just confuses: either make it intelligent to support an
older compiler or just get rid of these byte encodings.  You can always
disassemble the file and lookup the byte code with a modern compiler to
get back to the byte encoding.


Well, I used a Debian 6 cross compiler before, which didn't support 
these instructions. After your remark I updated the system to Debian 7, 
but found it not appropriate to ask any user to do the same just to use 
a fixed, non-parametrized assembly instruction. I have the feeling that 
there are quite some users out there who cannot and don't want to easily 
update their compiler.
So I decided to leave the workaround in the comment to give a hint to a 
quick fix.


By making it intelligent you mean a macro which does some version 
checking and inserts the .byte sequence if needed? Are there any 
archetypes of such code?

Andre.

ok, so if Debian's built-in cross compilers are indeed that old and we
want to support those (that's ok with me), then let's fix it properly.

Yes, see arch/arm/include/asm/opcodes-*.h

[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 6/7] ARM: extend non-secure switch to also go into HYP mode

2013-07-09 Thread Andre Przywara
For the KVM and XEN hypervisors to be usable, we need to enter the
kernel in HYP mode. Now that we already are in non-secure state,
HYP mode switching is within short reach.

While doing the non-secure switch, we have to enable the HVC
instruction and setup the HYP mode HVBAR (while still secure).

The actual switch is done by dropping back from a HYP mode handler
without actually leaving HYP mode, so we introduce a new handler
routine in our new secure exception vector table.

In the assembly switching routine we save and restore the banked LR
and SP registers around the hypercall to do the actual HYP mode
switch.

The C routine first checks whether we are in HYP mode already and
also whether the virtualization extensions are available. It also
checks whether the HYP mode switch was finally successful.
The bootm command part only adds and adjusts some error reporting.
