[PATCH 11/26] KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: prevent TS bits change in kvmppc_interrupt_pr()

From: <hidden>
Date: 2018-01-11 10:12:31
Also in: kvm
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine for powerpc (kvm/powerpc), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

From: Simon Guo <redacted>

PR KVM host usually equipped with enabled TM in its host MSR value, and
with non-transactional TS value.

When a guest with TM active traps into PR KVM host, the rfid at the
tail of kvmppc_interrupt_pr() will try to switch TS bits from
S0 (Suspended & TM disabled) to N1 (Non-transactional & TM enabled).

That will leads to TM Bad Thing interrupt.

This patch manually sets target TS bits unchanged to avoid this
exception.
