Add a new stat that counts the number of times a remote TLB flush is
requested, regardless of whether it kicks vCPUs out of guest mode. This
allows us to look at how often flushes are initiated.
Unlike remote_tlb_flush, this one applies to ARM's instruction-set-based
TLB flush implementation, so apply it there too.

Don't export KVM's MMU notifier count helpers, under no circumstance
should any downstream module, including x86's vendor code, have a
legitimate reason to piggyback KVM's MMU notifier logic. E.g in the x86
case, only KVM's MMU should be elevating the notifier count, and that

The memslot for a given gfn is looked up multiple times during page
fault handling. Avoid binary searching for it multiple times by caching
the most recently used slot. There is an existing VM-wide last_used_slot
but that does not work well for cases where vCPUs are accessing memory
in different slots (see performance data below).
Another benefit of caching the most recently use slot (versus looking
up the slot once and passing around a pointer) is speeding up memslot
lookups *across* faults and during spte prefetching.
To measure the performance of this change I ran dirty_log_perf_test with
64 vCPUs and 64 memslots and measured "Populate memory time" and
"Iteration 2 dirty memory time". Tests were ran with eptad=N to force
dirty logging to use fast_page_fault so its performance could be
measured.
Config | Metric | Before | After
---------- | ----------------------------- | ------ | ------
tdp_mmu=Y | Populate memory time | 6.76s | 5.47s
tdp_mmu=Y | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.83s | 0.31s
tdp_mmu=N | Populate memory time | 20.4s | 18.7s
tdp_mmu=N | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.65s | 0.30s
The "Iteration 2 dirty memory time" results are especially compelling
because they are equivalent to running the same test with a single
memslot. In other words, fast_page_fault performance no longer scales
with the number of memslots.

KVM creates a debugfs directory for each VM in order to store statistics
about the virtual machine. The directory name is built from the process
pid and a VM fd. While generally unique, it is possible to keep a
file descriptor alive in a way that causes duplicate directories, which
manifests as these messages:
[ 471.846235] debugfs: Directory '20245-4' with parent 'kvm' already present!
Even though this should not happen in practice, it is more or less
expected in the case of KVM for testcases that call KVM_CREATE_VM and
close the resulting file descriptor repeatedly and in parallel.
When this happens, debugfs_create_dir() returns an error but
kvm_create_vm_debugfs() goes on to allocate stat data structs which are
later leaked. The slow memory leak was spotted by syzkaller, where it
caused OOM reports.
Since the issue only affects debugfs, do a lookup before calling
debugfs_create_dir, so that the message is downgraded and rate-limited.
While at it, ensure kvm->debugfs_dentry is NULL rather than an error
if it is not created. This fixes kvm_destroy_vm_debugfs, which was not
checking IS_ERR_OR_NULL correctly.

Avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}() notifications
that are unrelated to KVM. This is possible now that memslot updates are
blocked from range_start() to range_end(); that ensures that lock elision
happens in both or none, and therefore that mmu_notifier_count updates
(which must occur while holding mmu_lock for write) are always paired
across start->end.
Based on patches originally written by Ben Gardon.

We would like to avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}()
notifications that are unrelated to KVM. Because mmu_notifier_count
must be modified while holding mmu_lock for write, and must always
be paired across start->end to stay balanced, lock elision must
happen in both or none. Therefore, in preparation for this change,
this patch prevents memslot updates across range_start() and range_end().
Note, technically flag-only memslot updates could be allowed in parallel,
but stalling a memslot update for a relatively short amount of time is
not a scalability issue, and this is all more than complex enough.
A long note on the locking: a previous version of the patch used an rwsem
to block the memslot update while the MMU notifier run, but this resulted
in the following deadlock involving the pseudo-lock tagged as
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start".
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.12.0-rc3+ #6 Tainted: G OE
------------------------------------------------------
qemu-system-x86/3069 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff9c775ca0 (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end+0x5/0x190
but task is already holding lock:
ffffaff7410a9160 (&kvm->mmu_notifier_slots_lock){.+.+}-{3:3}, at: kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start+0x36d/0x4f0 [kvm]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This corresponds to the following MMU notifier logic:
invalidate_range_start
take pseudo lock
down_read() (*)
release pseudo lock
invalidate_range_end
take pseudo lock (**)
up_read()
release pseudo lock
At point (*) we take the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock inside the pseudo lock;
at point (**) we take the pseudo lock inside the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock.
This could cause a deadlock (ignoring for a second that the pseudo lock
is not a lock):
- invalidate_range_start waits on down_read(), because the rwsem is
held by install_new_memslots
- install_new_memslots waits on down_write(), because the rwsem is
held till (another) invalidate_range_end finishes
- invalidate_range_end sits waits on the pseudo lock, held by
invalidate_range_start.
Removing the fairness of the rwsem breaks the cycle (in lockdep terms,
it would change the *shared* rwsem readers into *shared recursive*
readers), so open-code the wait using a readers count and a
spinlock. This also allows handling blockable and non-blockable
critical section in the same way.
Losing the rwsem fairness does theoretically allow MMU notifiers to
block install_new_memslots forever. Note that mm/mmu_notifier.c's own
retry scheme in mmu_interval_read_begin also uses wait/wake_up
and is likewise not fair.

SMT siblings share caches and other hardware, and busy halt polling
will degrade its sibling performance if its sibling is working
Sean Christopherson suggested as below:
"Rather than disallowing halt-polling entirely, on x86 it should be
sufficient to simply have the hardware thread yield to its sibling(s)
via PAUSE. It probably won't get back all performance, but I would
expect it to be close.
This compiles on all KVM architectures, and AFAICT the intended usage
of cpu_relax() is identical for all architectures."

- Changes to core scheduling facilities:
- Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow
the flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing
untrusted domains to information leaks & side channels, plus
to ensure more deterministic computing performance on SMT
systems used by heterogenous workloads.
There's new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which
allows more flexible management of workloads that can share
siblings.
- Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
abuses.
- Load-balancing changes:
- Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve
'memcache'-like workloads.
- "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve workloads
such as 'tbench'.
- Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
- Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
- Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
- Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
- Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked
via /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
- Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
- Scheduler statistics & tooling:
- Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable
it at runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and
other optimizations to make it more palatable.
- Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().

It's possible to create a region which maps valid but non-refcounted
pages (e.g., tail pages of non-compound higher order allocations). These
host pages can then be returned by gfn_to_page, gfn_to_pfn, etc., family
of APIs, which take a reference to the page, which takes it from 0 to 1.
When the reference is dropped, this will free the page incorrectly.
Fix this by only taking a reference on valid pages if it was non-zero,
which indicates it is participating in normal refcounting (and can be
released with put_page).

This commit defines the API for userspace and prepare the common
functionalities to support per VM/VCPU binary stats data readings.
The KVM stats now is only accessible by debugfs, which has some
shortcomings this change series are supposed to fix:
1. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM could be disabled
when kernel Lockdown mode is enabled, which is a potential
rick for production.
2. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM is organized as "one
stats per file", it is good for debugging, but not efficient
for production.
3. The stats read/clear in current debugfs solution in KVM are
protected by the global kvm_lock.
Besides that, there are some other benefits with this change:
1. All KVM VM/VCPU stats can be read out in a bulk by one copy
to userspace.
2. A schema is used to describe KVM statistics. From userspace's
perspective, the KVM statistics are self-describing.
3. With the fd-based solution, a separate telemetry would be able
to read KVM stats in a less privileged environment.
4. After the initial setup by reading in stats descriptors, a
telemetry only needs to read the stats data itself, no more
parsing or setup is needed.

or those supported by all architectures; put all generic statistics in

in the statistics API which is being added, removing duplication among
different architectures in the declaration of the descriptors.

For VMX, when a vcpu enters HLT emulation, pi_post_block will:
1) Add vcpu to per-cpu list of blocked vcpus.
2) Program the posted-interrupt descriptor "notification vector"
to POSTED_INTR_WAKEUP_VECTOR
With interrupt remapping, an interrupt will set the PIR bit for the
vector programmed for the device on the CPU, test-and-set the
ON bit on the posted interrupt descriptor, and if the ON bit is clear
generate an interrupt for the notification vector.
This way, the target CPU wakes upon a device interrupt and wakes up
the target vcpu.
Problem is that pi_post_block only programs the notification vector
if kvm_arch_has_assigned_device() is true. Its possible for the
following to happen:
1) vcpu V HLTs on pcpu P, kvm_arch_has_assigned_device is false,
notification vector is not programmed
2) device is assigned to VM
3) device interrupts vcpu V, sets ON bit
(notification vector not programmed, so pcpu P remains in idle)
4) vcpu 0 IPIs vcpu V (in guest), but since pi descriptor ON bit is set,
kvm_vcpu_kick is skipped
5) vcpu 0 busy spins on vcpu V's response for several seconds, until
RCU watchdog NMIs all vCPUs.
To fix this, use the start_assignment kvm_x86_ops callback to kick
vcpus out of the halt loop, so the notification vector is
properly reprogrammed to the wakeup vector.

Should the connect fail, the VM will not be resumed, which
is a bit of a problem.

Both lock holder vCPU and IPI receiver that has halted are condidate for
boost. However, the PLE handler was originally designed to deal with the
lock holder preemption problem. The Intel PLE occurs when the spinlock
waiter is in kernel mode. This assumption doesn't hold for IPI receiver,
they can be in either kernel or user mode. the vCPU candidate in user mode
will not be boosted even if they should respond to IPIs. Some benchmarks
like pbzip2, swaptions etc do the TLB shootdown in kernel mode and most
of the time they are running in user mode. It can lead to a large number
of continuous PLE events because the IPI sender causes PLE events
repeatedly until the receiver is scheduled while the receiver is not
candidate for a boost.
This patch boosts the vCPU candidiate in user mode which is delivery
interrupt. We can observe the speed of pbzip2 improves 10% in 96 vCPUs
VM in over-subscribe scenario (The host machine is 2 socket, 48 cores,
96 HTs Intel CLX box). There is no performance regression for other
benchmarks like Unixbench spawn (most of the time contend read/write
lock in kernel mode), ebizzy (most of the time contend read/write sem
and TLB shoodtdown in kernel mode).

Add a capability for userspace to mirror SEV encryption context from
one vm to another. On our side, this is intended to support a
Migration Helper vCPU, but it can also be used generically to support
other in-guest workloads scheduled by the host. The intention is for
the primary guest and the mirror to have nearly identical memslots.
The primary benefits of this are that:
1) The VMs do not share KVM contexts (think APIC/MSRs/etc), so they
can't accidentally clobber each other.
2) The VMs can have different memory-views, which is necessary for post-copy
migration (the migration vCPUs on the target need to read and write to
pages, when the primary guest would VMEXIT).
This does not change the threat model for AMD SEV. Any memory involved
is still owned by the primary guest and its initial state is still
attested to through the normal SEV_LAUNCH_* flows. If userspace wanted
to circumvent SEV, they could achieve the same effect by simply attaching
a vCPU to the primary VM.
This patch deliberately leaves userspace in charge of the memslots for the
mirror, as it already has the power to mess with them in the primary guest.
This patch does not support SEV-ES (much less SNP), as it does not
handle handing off attested VMSAs to the mirror.
For additional context, we need a Migration Helper because SEV PSP
migration is far too slow for our live migration on its own. Using
an in-guest migrator lets us speed this up significantly.
