This is not the way we normally do CPU features.
In the past we have always added a raw entry in cputable.c, see eg. the
Power9 DD 2.0, 2.1 entries.
True. But that won't work PowerVM guests because kernel overwrites "raw"
mode cpu_features with "architected" mode cpu_features.
Doing it here is not really safe, if you're running with an architected
PVR (via cpu-version property), you can't set the DD1 feature, because
you might be migrated to a future CPU that doesn't have the DD1 quirks.
Okay.. I suppose, that mean kernel need to check real PVR every time when it
encounters spurious exception. i.e. instead of using
if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_POWER10_DD1) && ...)
it need to use
if (mfspr(SPRN_PVR) == 0x800100 && ...)
in patch 2. Right?
Thanks,
Ravi
