In an earlier version of the patch ("x86/kvm/vmx: Defer TR reload
after VM exit") that introduced TSS limit validity tracking, I
confused which helper was which. On reflection, the names I chose
sucked. Rename the helpers to make it more obvious what's going on
and add some comments.
While I'm at it, clear __tss_limit_invalid when force-reloading as
well as when contitionally reloading, since any TR reload fixes the
limit.

pmc_reprogram_counter() always sets a sample period based on the value of
pmc->counter. However, hsw_hw_config() rejects sample periods less than
2^31 - 1. So for example, if a KVM guest does
struct perf_event_attr attr;
memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));
attr.type = PERF_TYPE_RAW;
attr.size = sizeof(attr);
attr.config = 0x2005101c4; // conditional branches retired IN_TXCP
attr.sample_period = 0;
int fd = syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, &attr, 0, -1, -1, 0);
ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE, 0);
ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0);
the guest kernel counts some conditional branch events, then updates the
virtual PMU register with a nonzero count. The host reaches
pmc_reprogram_counter() with nonzero pmc->counter, triggers EOPNOTSUPP
in hsw_hw_config(), prints "kvm_pmu: event creation failed" in
pmc_reprogram_counter(), and silently (from the guest's point of view) stops
counting events.
We fix event counting by forcing attr.sample_period to always be zero for
in_tx_cp counters. Sampling doesn't work, but it already didn't work and
can't be fixed without major changes to the approach in hsw_hw_config().

200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.
* ARM:
- GICv3 save/restore
- cache flushing fixes
- working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
- physical timer emulation
* MIPS:
- various improvements under the hood
- support for SMP guests
- a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU notifiers
to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking, swapping, ballooning
and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is also supported, so that
writes to some memory regions can be treated as MMIO. The new MMU also
paves the way for hardware virtualization support.
* PPC:
- support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
- resizable hashed page table
- bugfixes.
* s390: expose more features to the guest
- more SIMD extensions
- instruction execution protection
- ESOP2
* x86:
- improved hashing in the MMU
- faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
- some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
migration support of nested hypervisors
- expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
- host-to-guest PTP support
- refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown in
and some duct tape removed.
- remove lazy FPU handling
- optimizations of user-mode exits
- optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

Eric and Willem reported that they recently saw random crashes when
JIT was in use and bisected this to 74451e66d5 ("bpf: make jited
programs visible in traces"). Issue was that the consolidation part
added bpf_jit_binary_unlock_ro() that would unlock previously made
read-only memory back to read-write. However, DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX
cannot be used for this to test for presence of set_memory_*()
functions. We need to use ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY instead to fix this;
also add the corresponding bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro() to filter.h.

Currently, there's no good way to test for the presence of
set_memory_ro/rw/x/nx() helpers implemented by archs such as
x86, arm, arm64 and s390.
There's DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX and DEBUG_RODATA, however both
don't really reflect that: set_memory_*() are also available
even when DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX is turned off, and DEBUG_RODATA
is set by parisc, but doesn't implement above functions. Thus,
add ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY that is selected by mentioned archs,
where generic code can test against this.
This also allows later on to move DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX out of
the arch specific Kconfig to define it only once depending on
ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY.

It was found when running fio sequential write test with a XFS ramdisk
on a KVM guest running on a 2-socket x86-64 system, the %CPU times
as reported by perf were as follows:
69.75% 0.59% fio [k] down_write
69.15% 0.01% fio [k] call_rwsem_down_write_failed
67.12% 1.12% fio [k] rwsem_down_write_failed
63.48% 52.77% fio [k] osq_lock
9.46% 7.88% fio [k] __raw_callee_save___kvm_vcpu_is_preempt
3.93% 3.93% fio [k] __kvm_vcpu_is_preempted
Making vcpu_is_preempted() a callee-save function has a relatively
high cost on x86-64 primarily due to at least one more cacheline of
data access from the saving and restoring of registers (8 of them)
to and from stack as well as one more level of function call.
To reduce this performance overhead, an optimized assembly version
of the the __raw_callee_save___kvm_vcpu_is_preempt() function is
provided for x86-64.
With this patch applied on a KVM guest on a 2-socket 16-core 32-thread
system with 16 parallel jobs (8 on each socket), the aggregrate
bandwidth of the fio test on an XFS ramdisk were as follows:
I/O Type w/o patch with patch
-------- --------- ----------
random read 8141.2 MB/s 8497.1 MB/s
seq read 8229.4 MB/s 8304.2 MB/s
random write 1675.5 MB/s 1701.5 MB/s
seq write 1681.3 MB/s 1699.9 MB/s
There are some increases in the aggregated bandwidth because of
the patch.
The perf data now became:
70.78% 0.58% fio [k] down_write
70.20% 0.01% fio [k] call_rwsem_down_write_failed
69.70% 1.17% fio [k] rwsem_down_write_failed
59.91% 55.42% fio [k] osq_lock
10.14% 10.14% fio [k] __kvm_vcpu_is_preempted
The assembly code was verified by using a test kernel module to
compare the output of C __kvm_vcpu_is_preempted() and that of assembly
__raw_callee_save___kvm_vcpu_is_preempt() to verify that they matched.

The cpu argument in the function prototype of vcpu_is_preempted()
is changed from int to long. That makes it easier to provide a better
optimized assembly version of that function.
For Xen, vcpu_is_preempted(long) calls xen_vcpu_stolen(int), the
downcast from long to int is not a problem as vCPU number won't exceed
32 bits.

Intel's VMX is daft and resets the hidden TSS limit register to 0x67
on VMX reload, and the 0x67 is not configurable. KVM currently
reloads TR using the LTR instruction on every exit, but this is quite
slow because LTR is serializing.
The 0x67 limit is entirely harmless unless ioperm() is in use, so
defer the reload until a task using ioperm() is actually running.

[Force-reload TR in invalidate_tss_limit. - Paolo]

Historically, the entire TSS + io bitmap structure was cacheline
aligned, but commit ca241c7503 ("x86: unify tss_struct") changed it
(presumably inadvertently) so that the fixed-layout hardware part is
cacheline-aligned and the io bitmap is after the padding. This wastes
24 bytes (the hardware part should be 104 bytes, but this pads it to
128 bytes) and, serves no purpose, and causes sizeof(struct
x86_hw_tss) to have a confusing value.
Drop the pointless alignment.

Use actual pointer types for pointers (instead of unsigned long) and
replace hardcoded constants with the appropriate self-documenting
macros.
The function is still a bit messy, but this seems a lot better than
before to me.
This is mostly borrowed from a patch by Thomas Garnier.

It was a bit buggy (it didn't list all segment types that needed
64-bit fixups), but the bug was irrelevant because it wasn't called
in any interesting context on 64-bit kernels and was only used for
data segents on 32-bit kernels.
To avoid confusion, make it explicitly 32-bit only.

The current CPU's TSS base is a foregone conclusion, so there's no need
to parse it out of the segment tables. This should save a couple cycles
(as STR is surely microcoded and poorly optimized) but, more importantly,
it's a cleanup and it means that segment_base() will never be called on
64-bit kernels.

Rather than open-coding the kernel TSS limit in set_tss_desc(), make
it a real macro near the TSS layout definition.
This is purely a cleanup.

SoCs that require special handling, ARM64 SoCs support for the qoriq
driver, intel_pstate updates, powernv driver update and assorted

The devfreq changes are mostly fixes related to the sysfs interface
and some Exynos drivers updates.
Apart from that, the cpuidle menu governor will support per-CPU PM QoS
constraints for the wakeup latency now, some bugs in the wakeup IRQs
framework are fixed, the generic power domains framework should handle
asynchronous invocations of *noirq suspend/resume callbacks from now
on, the analyze_suspend.py script is updated and there is a new tool
for intel_pstate diagnostics.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"On the kernel side the main changes in this cycle were:
- Add Intel Kaby Lake CPU support (Srinivas Pandruvada)
- AMD uncore driver updates for fam17 (Janakarajan Natarajan)
- Intel/PT updates and core events optimizations and cleanups
(Alexander Shishkin)
- cgroups events fixes (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
- kprobes improvements (Masami Hiramatsu)
- ... plus misc fixes and updates.
On the tooling side the main changes were:
- Support clang build in tools/{perf,lib/{bpf,traceevent,api}} with
CC=clang, to, for instance, take advantage of better warnings
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo):
- Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders
the histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta
for a function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that
changed the most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add support for parsing Intel uncore vendor event files and add
uncore vendor events for the Intel server processors (Haswell,
Broadwell, IvyBridge), Xeon Phi (Knights Landing) and Broadwell DE
(Andi Kleen)
- Introduce 'perf ftrace' a perf front end to the kernel's ftrace
function and function_graph tracer, defaulting to the
"function_graph" tracer, more work will be done in reviving this
effort, forward porting it from its initial patch submission
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add 'e' and 'c' hotkeys to expand/collapse call chains for a single
hist entry in the 'perf report' and 'perf top' TUI (Jiri Olsa)
- Account thread wait time (off CPU time) separately: sleep, iowait
and preempt, based on the prev_state of the last event, show the
breakdown when using "perf sched timehist --state" (Namhyumg Kim)
- Add more triggers to switch the output file (perf.data.TIMESTAMP).
Now, in addition to switching to a different output file when
receiving a SIGUSR2, one can also specify file size and time based
triggers:
perf record -a --switch-output=signal
is equivalent to what we had before:
perf record -a --switch-output
While we can also ask for the file to be "sliced" by size, taking
into account that that will happen only when we get woken up by the
kernel, i.e. one has to take into account the --mmap-pages (the
size of the perf mmap ring buffer):
perf record -a --switch-output=2G
will break the perf.data output into multiple files limited to 2GB
of samples, right when generating the output.
For time based samples, alert() will be used, so to have 1 minute
limited perf.data output files:
perf record -a --switch-output=1m
(Jiri Olsa)
- Improve 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- 'perf kallsyms' toy tool to look for extended symbol information on
the running kernel and demonstrate the machine/thread/symbol APIs
for use in other tools, such as 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

Long standing issue with JITed programs is that stack traces from
function tracing check whether a given address is kernel code
through {__,}kernel_text_address(), which checks for code in core
kernel, modules and dynamically allocated ftrace trampolines. But
what is still missing is BPF JITed programs (interpreted programs
are not an issue as __bpf_prog_run() will be attributed to them),
thus when a stack trace is triggered, the code walking the stack
won't see any of the JITed ones. The same for address correlation
done from user space via reading /proc/kallsyms. This is read by
tools like perf, but the latter is also useful for permanent live
tracing with eBPF itself in combination with stack maps when other
eBPF types are part of the callchain. See offwaketime example on
dumping stack from a map.
This work tries to tackle that issue by making the addresses and
symbols known to the kernel. The lookup from *kernel_text_address()
is implemented through a latched RB tree that can be read under
RCU in fast-path that is also shared for symbol/size/offset lookup
for a specific given address in kallsyms. The slow-path iteration
through all symbols in the seq file done via RCU list, which holds
a tiny fraction of all exported ksyms, usually below 0.1 percent.
Function symbols are exported as bpf_prog_<tag>, in order to aide
debugging and attribution. This facility is currently enabled for
root-only when bpf_jit_kallsyms is set to 1, and disabled if hardening
is active in any mode. The rationale behind this is that still a lot
of systems ship with world read permissions on kallsyms thus addresses
should not get suddenly exposed for them. If that situation gets
much better in future, we always have the option to change the
default on this. Likewise, unprivileged programs are not allowed
to add entries there either, but that is less of a concern as most
such programs types relevant in this context are for root-only anyway.
If enabled, call graphs and stack traces will then show a correct
attribution; one example is illustrated below, where the trace is
now visible in tooling such as perf script --kallsyms=/proc/kallsyms
and friends.

The purpose of the KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK API is to let userspace "kick"
a VCPU out of KVM_RUN through a POSIX signal. A signal is attached
to a dummy signal handler; by blocking the signal outside KVM_RUN and
unblocking it inside, this possible race is closed:
VCPU thread service thread
--------------------------------------------------------------
check flag
set flag
raise signal
(signal handler does nothing)
KVM_RUN
However, one issue with KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK is that it has to take
tsk->sighand->siglock on every KVM_RUN. This lock is often on a
remote NUMA node, because it is on the node of a thread's creator.
Taking this lock can be very expensive if there are many userspace
exits (as is the case for SMP Windows VMs without Hyper-V reference
time counter).
As an alternative, we can put the flag directly in kvm_run so that
KVM can see it:
VCPU thread service thread
--------------------------------------------------------------
raise signal
signal handler
set run->immediate_exit
KVM_RUN
check run->immediate_exit

Enabling both DEBUG_WX=y and KASAN=y options significantly increases
boot time (dozens of seconds at least).
KASAN fills kernel page tables with repeated values to map several
TBs of the virtual memory to the single kasan_zero_page:
kasan_zero_pud ->
kasan_zero_pmd->
kasan_zero_pte->
kasan_zero_page
So, the page table walker used to find W+X mapping check the same
kasan_zero_p?d page table entries a lot more than once.
With patch pud walker will skip the pud if it has the same value as
the previous one . Skipping done iff we search for W+X mappings,
so this optimization won't affect the page table dump via debugfs.
This dropped time spend in W+X check from ~30 sec to reasonable 0.1 sec:
