When the StoreEOI capability is set to "cas", let CAS decide when
StoreEOI should be advertised. StoreEOI is safe to use with a P10
compat machine because the OS enforces load-after-store ordering but
not with P9 compat.

The question now is : should we make "cas" the default at the machine
level ?

Hmm, spapr capabilities are knobs for the end user to provide a specific
and consistent behavior to the guest... so the "let CAS decide depending
on what the guest asked for" thing looks awkward... I mean that making
"cas" the default at the machine level looks like you don't really want
this to be a capability at all.

If the user asked for StoreEOI but the guest chose a compat mode that
can't support it, QEMU should simply exit IMHO.

Or alternatively I guess you can just forget about the spapr capability
and do all the checks (XIVE interrupt controller, KVM support, guest
asked for P10) at CAS.

The guest doesn't ask for StoreEOI. The hypervisor will return StoreEOI
if the kernel is P10 compat and will not if it's P9 to make sure that
it can be migrated to a P9 host.

It means that you are not forcing a behaviour "off" or "on". It depends
on the guest support, P10 or P9, which is what we want as a default 
behavior to be in sync with pHyp.

It's not like XICS. A P8 compat can not run on XIVE. A P9 compat can use 
StoreEOI. So it should be considered more like a mitigation. But anyhow, 
the P9 systems currenly shipped never activate StoreEOI. So you will get 
the error.

That's how I did in the fisrt patches but then you loose the ability to 
switch it off on P10 and switch on on P9. Which is good to have for tests 
and performance and for possible issues if we ever have to handle a source 
which has different charateristics. In that case, we would switch it off. 

Thanks,

Hmm... OS enforcing load-after-store based on a PVR ? I can't find
such a thing in the kernel sources. What I find is:

	if (offset == XIVE_ESB_SET_PQ_10 && xd->flags & XIVE_IRQ_FLAG_STORE_EOI)
		offset |= XIVE_ESB_LD_ST_MO;

where xd->flags comes from H_INT_GET_SOURCE_INFO, so this essentially
depends on what the hypervisor advertises. For example a P9 compat
guest could use it if QEMU has an emulated XIVE, right ?

Yeah I know that the guest doesn't ask for StoreEOI. What I mean is that
the idea behind spapr capabilities is only about saying "this machine type
offers this feature and the host supports it". The fact that the guest
might use it or not is another matter. So I don't quite see how "cas" fits
into this model...

I think there's confusion here. Setting the capability to "on"/"off"
doesn't mean your force anything. As said above, this isn't related
to what the guest supports but essentially to what the host supports.
"on" means that we can offer the feature to the guest in a reliable
manner because we have verified it can work, and "off" simply means
we don't offer the feature (but of course the guest is still free
to shoot itself in the foot).

The reference to what pHyp does is thus irrelevant here because we
won't ever migrate a guest between KVM and PowerVM. We could decide
to do nothing and let the OS only do "LoadEOI" operations as it does
today.

If we want StoreEOI to be usable by default, then the default value
should definitely be "on". This should be kept to "off" for older
machine types to stay compatible with existing setups.

Let's only consider the KVM case only because we don't explicitly
support KVM<->TCG migration. The availability of StoreEOI is:
- emulated XIVE on P9 system => ok
- emulated XIVE on P10 system => ok
- in-kernel XIVE on P10 system => ok
- in-kernel XIVE on P9 system => not ok

This means that on a P9 system we must fallback on emulated XIVE, like
we already do with bostons today. This might look sub-optimal from a
performance standpoint but this is the price to pay to guarantee
migration doesn't fail with the default settings.

I understand that having fine grain knobs is cool for tests and performance
but keep in mind that we mostly target end-users who expect this to work
out of the box with the default settings. This being said, if some end-users
might hit a corner case where it would be valuable to switch it off, then
it makes sense to keep the ability to do so of course.
