On POWER9 systems, we push the VCPU context onto the XIVE (eXternal Interrupt Virtualization Engine) hardware when entering a guest, and pull the context off the XIVE when exiting the guest. The push is done with cache-inhibited stores, and the pull with cache-inhibited loads. Testing has revealed that it is possible (though very rare) for the stores to get reordered with the loads so that we end up with the guest VCPU context still loaded on the XIVE after we have exited the guest. When that happens, it is possible for the same VCPU context to then get loaded on another CPU, which causes the machine to checkstop. To fix this, we add I/O barrier instructions (eieio) before and after the push and pull operations. As partial compensation for the potential slowdown caused by the extra barriers, we remove the eieio instructions between the two stores in the push operation, and between the two loads in the pull operation. (The architecture requires loads to cache-inhibited, guarded storage to be kept in order, and requires stores to cache-inhibited, guarded storage likewise to be kept in order, but allows such loads and stores to be reordered with respect to each other.)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
