[PATCH 09/39] KVM: PPC: Implement 'skip instruction' mode

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sat Feb 13 2010 - 03:11:34 EST

From: Alexander Graf <agraf@xxxxxxx>

To fetch the last instruction we were interrupted on, we enable DR in early
exit code, where we are still in a very transitional phase between guest
and host state.

Most of the time this seemed to work, but another CPU can easily flush our
TLB and HTAB which makes us go in the Linux page fault handler which totally
breaks because we still use the guest's SLB entries.

To work around that, let's introduce a second KVM guest mode that defines
that whenever we get a trap, we don't call the Linux handler or go into
the KVM exit code, but just jump over the faulting instruction.

That way a potentially bad lwz doesn't trigger any faults and we can later
on interpret the invalid instruction we fetched as "fetch didn't work".
