Subject: [RFC v2 0/5] KVM: selftests: add powerpc support
Date: Sat, 23 May 2026 16:44:19 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1779524962.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi All,

This series primarly adds KVM selftests support for powerpc (64-bit, BookS,
radix MMU).

This patch series is originally Nick's work. I have mainly only rebased it on
the latest upstream tree. Since the rebase required few changes to all the four
patches (Patch 1-4), I have dropped the earlier Acked-by from Michael Ellerman.

Since the last series was posted three years ago [1], I am resetting the version
to RFC. This rebase was done as part of a larger effort to improve the selftests
infrastructure for Linux on PowerPC tree. Thanks to Harsh and Maddy for their
help on this.


Testing Updates:
================
1. Tested this on PowerNV P9 with Radix mode. (all selftests passes)
2. Tested this on LPAR (KVM on PowerVM) case. (all selftests except-1 passes).
   The failed testcase (kvm_create_max_vcpus) is because H_GUEST_CREATE_VCPU
   (PAPR HCALL) only supports vcpu_ids 0-2047 i.e. max 2048 vcpus.
   However, kernel always returns NR_CPUS for the KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS extension.
   So if the LPAR kernel is built using NR_CPUS=8192, then kvm_create_max_vcpus
   can fail in __vm_vcpu_add(). This failure needs to be handled seperately,
   mostly as fix in kernel.
3. Tested these selftests changes inside x86 kvm guest  - no new failures seen.


RFC v1 -> RFC v2
================
(mostly Sashiko review comments)
1. Fixed x86's stage-2 mmu handling in patch-1 - commit msg has more description
2. Added "cc" into the clobber list for hcalls in patch-3
3. Fixed the size calculation in kvm_arch_vm_post_create in patch-3 for
   allocating 2 pages for 4K pagesize
4. Added patch-5 which prints vcpu_id in case of an error
