PowerISA 3.0 eliminated the 64-bit bridge mode which allowed 32-bit kernels
to run on 64-bit AIM/Book-S hardware. Since therefore only a 64-bit kernel
can run on this hardware, and 64-bit native always has the direct map, there
is no need to guard it.
Summary:
MOEA64_PTE_REPLACE() is called often with the pmap lock held, and
sometimes with the page pv lock held. The less work done while holding
a lock, the better. Since we are intending to replace the same PTE
(same hash index), we don't need to recalculate anything, just flat
replace the PTE. This cuts more than 200 instructions off the
invalidating code path. In addition, we don't need to replace a PTE
that's not occupied by this PVO.

Summary:
It turns out statistics accounting is very expensive in the pmap driver,
and doesn't seem necessary in the common case. Make this optional
behind a MOEA64_STATS #define, which one can set if they really need
statistics.
This saves ~7-8% on buildworld time on a POWER9.

Summary:
moea64_insert_pteg_native()'s invalidation only works by happenstance.
The purpose of the shifts and XORs is to extract the VSID in order to
reverse-engineer the lower bits of the VPN. Currently a segment size is 256MB
(2**28), and ADDR_API_SHFT64 is 16, so ADDR_PIDX_SHIFT is equivalent. However,
it's semantically incorrect, in that we don't want to shift by the page shift
size, we want to shift to get to the VSID.

* Cache moea64_need_lock in a local variable; gcc generates slightly better
code this way, it doesn't need to reload the value from memory each read.
* VPN cropping is only needed on PowerPC ISA 2.02 and older cores, a subset
of those that need serialization, so move this under the need_lock check,
so those that don't need the lock don't even need to check this.
r345402 fixed the bug that led to the split of the ISA 3.0 HPT handling from
the existing manager. The cause of the bug was gcc moving the register
holding VPN to a different register (not r0), which triggered bizarre
behaviors. With the fix, things work, so they can be re-merged. No
performance lost with the merge.
By happenstance gcc4 puts 'vpn' into r0 in all uses of TLBIE(), but modern
gcc does not. Also, the single-argument form of tlbie zeros all unused
arguments, making the modern tlbie instruction use r0 as the RS field
(LPID).
The vpn argument has the bottom 12 bits cleared (the input having been
left-shifted by 12 bits), which just so happens, on the POWER9 and previous
incarnations, to be the number of LPID bits supported. With those bits
being zero, the instruction:
tlbie r0, r0
will invalidate the VPN in r0, in LPAR 0 (ignoring the upper bits of r0 for
the RS field). One build with gcc8 yields:
tlbie r9, r0
with r0 having arbitrary contents, not equal to r9. This leads to strange
crashes, behaviors, and panics, due to the requested TLB entry not actually
being invalidated.
As the moea64_native must work on both old and new, we explicitly zero out
r0 so that it can work with only the single argument, built with base gcc
and modern gcc. isa3_hashtb takes a different approach, encoding the
two-argument form, soas not to explicitly clobber r0, and instead let the
compiler decide.

PowerISA 3.0 makes several changes to not only the format of the HPT but
also the behavior surrounding it. For instance, TLBIE no longer requires
serialization. Removing this lock cuts buildworld time in half on a
18-core/72-thread POWER9 system, demonstrating that this lock is highly
contended on such a system.
There was odd behavior observed trying to make this change in a
backwards-compatible manner in moea64_native.c, so the best option was to
fully split it, and largely revert the original changes adding POWER9
support to the original file.
Suggested by: nwhitehorn
On very large memory systems 'size' can become 2GB or larger, resulting in a
negative value being formatted. Also, moea64_pteg_count is already a long, so
format it as such.
POWER9 supports Radix page tables in addition to Hashed page tables. When
Radix page tables are in use, the TLB is cut in half, so that half of the
TLB is used for the page walk cache. This is the default behavior, however
FreeBSD currently does not support Radix tables. Clear this bit so that we
can use the full TLB. Do this in the MMU logic so that configuration can be
localized to the specific translation format. Once we do support Radix
tables, the setup for that will be localized to the Radix MMU kobj.
Summary:
PowerISA 2.03 and later require bits 14:65 in the RB register argument,
which is the full value of the vpn argument post-shift. Only POWER4, POWER4+,
and PPC970* need the upper 16 bits cropped.
With this change FreeBSD can boot to multi-user on POWER9.

r333273 and partially reverted with r333594.
Older CPUs implement addition of offsets into the page table by a
bitwise OR rather than actual addition, which only works if the table is
aligned at a multiple of its own size (they also require it to be aligned
at a multiple of 256KB). Newer ones do not have that requirement, but it
hardly matters to enforce it anyway.
The original code was failing on newer systems with huge amounts of RAM
(> 512 GB), in which the page table was 4 GB in size. Because the
bootstrap memory allocator took its alignment parameter as an int, this
turned into a 0, removing any alignment constraint at all and making
the MMU fail. The first round of this patch (r333273) fixed this case by
aligning it at 256 KB, which broke older CPUs. Fix this instead by widening
the alignment parameter.
The POWER9 MMU (PowerISA 3.0) is slightly different from current
configurations, using a partition table even for hypervisor mode, and
dropping the SDR1 register. Key off the newly early-enabled CPU features
flags for the new architecture, and configure the MMU appropriately.
The POWER9 MMU ignores the "PSIZ" field in the PTCR, and expects a 64kB
table. As we are enabled for powernv (hypervisor mode, no VMs), only
initialize partition table entry 0, and zero out the rest. The actual
contents of the register are identical to SDR1 from previous architectures.
Along with this, fix a bug in the page table allocation with very large
memory. The table can be allocated on any 256k boundary. The
bootstrap_alloc alignment argument is an int, and with large amounts of
memory passing the size of the table as the alignment will overflow an
integer. Hard-code the alignment at 256k as wider alignment is not
necessary.

accomplishes a few things:
- Makes NULL an invalid address in the kernel, which is useful for catching
bugs.
- Lays groundwork for radix-tree translation on POWER9, which requires the
direct map be at high memory.
- Similarly lays groundwork for a direct map on 64-bit Book-E.
The new base address is chosen as the base of the fourth radix quadrant
(the minimum kernel address in this translation mode) and because all
supported CPUs ignore at least the first two bits of addresses in real
mode, allowing direct-map addresses to be used in real-mode handlers.
This is required by Linux and is part of the architecture standard
starting in POWER ISA 3, so can be relied upon.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
this change is to improve concurrency:
- Drop global state stored in the shadow overflow page table (and all other
global state)
- Remove all global locks
- Use per-PTE lock bits to allow parallel page insertion
- Reconstruct state when requested for evicted PTEs instead of buffering
it during overflow
This drops total wall time for make buildworld on a 32-thread POWER8 system
by a factor of two and system time by a factor of three, providing performance
20% better than similarly clocked Core i7 Xeons per-core. Performance on
smaller SMP systems, where PMAP lock contention was not as much of an issue,
is nearly unchanged.
