Even though it's not strictly necessary for KVM, I'd prefer to have a common entry point for SDR1 updates to reduce confusion. Plus this won't be sufficient to fix things for !TCG builds, since we still have the common calls on the loadvm path. > > target/ppc/kvm.c | 6 +++++- > 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/target/ppc/kvm.c b/target/ppc/kvm.c > index 104a308abb..3f52a7189d 100644 > --- a/target/ppc/kvm.c > +++ b/target/ppc/kvm.c > @@ -1159,7 +1159,11 @@ static int kvmppc_get_books_sregs(PowerPCCPU *cpu) > } > > if (!cpu->vhyp) { > - ppc_store_sdr1(env, sregs.u.s.sdr1); > + /* > + * We have just gotten the SDR1, there should be no > + * reason to do error checking.... right? > + */ > + env->spr[SPR_SDR1] = sregs.u.s.sdr1; > } > > /* Sync SLB */

The only use of this function in kvm.c is right after using the KVM ioctl to get the registers themselves, so there is no need to do the error checks done by ppc_store_sdr1. The probable reason this was here before is because of the hack where KVM PR stores the hash table size along with the SDR1 information, but since ppc_store_sdr1 would also store that information, there should be no need to do any extra processing here. Signed-off-by: Bruno Larsen (billionai) <bruno.larsen@eldorado.org.br> --- This change means we won't have to compile ppc_store_sdr1 when we get disable-tcg working, but I'm not working on that code motion just yet since Lucas is dealing with the same file. I'm sending this as an RFC because I'm pretty sure I'm missing something, but from what I can see, this is all we'd need target/ppc/kvm.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
