The code in linux-user/ppc/cpu_loop.c expects POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV
exception with error POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_OPC or POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_REG,
while POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL_SPR is expected in POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL
exceptions. This mismatch caused an EXCP_DUMP with the message "Unknown
privilege violation (03)", as seen in [1].

Fixes: 9b2fadda3e01 ("ppc: Rework generation of priv and inval interrupts")

Is there any case where throwing a PRIV/INVAL exception with a
INVAL/PRIV error makes sense? It seems wrong, but maybe I'm missing
something... especially with the HV_EMU to program check conversion.

Also, if this patch is correct, it seems that all invalid SPR access
would be nop or privilege exceptions. In this case, is
POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL_SPR still needed?

This patch seems to do the right thing. So:

Reviewed-by: Fabiano Rosas <farosas@linux.ibm.com>


Now, I'm not sure if the code around it does the right thing. =)

Specifically the else blocks (read_cb == NULL) and (write_cb ==
NULL). From _spr_register I understand that cb == NULL means this is not
a recognized SPR by this processor*. So in my mind 100% of them should be
invalid SPR exceptions.

The reserved SPRs should be registered in cpu_init and handled as
"known, but privileged" or "known, but noop". Maybe using SPR_NOACCESS
and/or a new SPR_NOOP. It might be a bit tricky because they have no names,
but that is an implementation detail.

* - there's some nuance here because of the system vs. linux-user build
    time configuration so I'm not entirely sure.

Let's think a bit more about this. Everything seems to work just fine
the way it is so there's no rush. But I think this code could perhaps be
simplified and some of these assumptions handled at build time with
spr_register.

I agree that as it stands this is not needed. But we might want to bring
it back given the points I mentioned above. So let's keep it for now.

It seems logic to emit a POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_XXX exception with  gen_priv_exception() (POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV).

Moreover in line above we have a  gen_priv_exception(ctx, POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_REG) if the register 
cannot be read (SPR_NOACCESS).

But in helper_load_dcr() we have POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_REG with POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL (whereas in the 
helper_store_dcr() function we have POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL with POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL_INVAL).
It looks like another bug.

and in gen_slbfee() we have also a POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_REG with gen_inval_exception() 
(POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL).

What is interesting is gen_inval_exception() uses POWERPC_EXCP_HV_EMU that could make thinking we 
could try to emulate the operation (for KVM PR, for instance).

Thanks,
Laurent

The instructions that could invoke these helpers in user-mode (mfdcrux 
and mtdcrux) are behind PPC_DCRUX, and no CPU has this insns_flag, so I 
guess the code is wrong, but we cannot hit the bug in linux-user.

Similarly, we have gen_hvpriv_exception with POWERPC_EXCP_INVAL_SPR in 
spr_groupA_write_allowed and gen_inval_exception with 
POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_REG in spr_write_excp_vector, but both are behind 
!defined(CONFIG_USER_ONLY).

This one is easier to test. Looking at si_code:

void sigill_handle(int sig, siginfo_t *si, void *ucontext)
{
     _exit(si->si_code);
}

int main(void)
{
     struct sigaction sa = {.sa_sigaction = sigill_handle, .sa_flags = 
SA_SIGINFO};
     uint64_t t = 0, b = 0;
     sigaction(SIGILL, &sa, NULL);
     asm("slbfee. %0, %1" : "=r" (t) : "r" (b));
     return 0;
}

We have:
$ ./slbee; echo $?
5 # ILL_PRVOPC
$ ./qemu-ppc64 ./slbfee; echo $?
2 # ILL_ILLOPN

So I think we should be using gen_priv_exception or gen_hvpriv_exception 
with POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV_OPC.

IIUC, we should use gen_hvpriv_exception in those cases, so we have 
POWERPC_EXCP_HV_EMU with POWERPC_EXCP_PRIV | something.
