Guests that are heavy on futexes end up IPI'ing each other a lot. That
can lead to significant slowdowns and latency increase for those guests
when running within KVM.
If only a single guest is needed on a host, we have a lot of spare host
CPU time we can throw at the problem. Modern CPUs implement a feature
called "MWAIT" which allows guests to wake up sleeping remote CPUs without
an IPI - thus without an exit - at the expense of never going out of guest
context.
The decision whether this is something sensible to use should be up to the
VM admin, so to user space. We can however allow MWAIT execution on systems
that support it properly hardware wise.
This patch adds a CAP to user space and a KVM cpuid leaf to indicate
availability of native MWAIT execution. With that enabled, the worst a
guest can do is waste as many cycles as a "jmp ." would do, so it's not
a privilege problem.
We consciously do *not* expose the feature in our CPUID bitmap, as most
people will want to benefit from sleeping vCPUs to allow for over commit.

This allows the host kernel to handle H_PUT_TCE, H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT
and H_STUFF_TCE requests targeted an IOMMU TCE table used for VFIO
without passing them to user space which saves time on switching
to user space and back.
This adds H_PUT_TCE/H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT/H_STUFF_TCE handlers to KVM.
KVM tries to handle a TCE request in the real mode, if failed
it passes the request to the virtual mode to complete the operation.
If it a virtual mode handler fails, the request is passed to
the user space; this is not expected to happen though.
To avoid dealing with page use counters (which is tricky in real mode),
this only accelerates SPAPR TCE IOMMU v2 clients which are required
to pre-register the userspace memory. The very first TCE request will
be handled in the VFIO SPAPR TCE driver anyway as the userspace view
of the TCE table (iommu_table::it_userspace) is not allocated till
the very first mapping happens and we cannot call vmalloc in real mode.
If we fail to update a hardware IOMMU table unexpected reason, we just
clear it and move on as there is nothing really we can do about it -
for example, if we hot plug a VFIO device to a guest, existing TCE tables
will be mirrored automatically to the hardware and there is no interface
to report to the guest about possible failures.
This adds new attribute - KVM_DEV_VFIO_GROUP_SET_SPAPR_TCE - to
the VFIO KVM device. It takes a VFIO group fd and SPAPR TCE table fd
and associates a physical IOMMU table with the SPAPR TCE table (which
is a guest view of the hardware IOMMU table). The iommu_table object
is cached and referenced so we do not have to look up for it in real mode.
This does not implement the UNSET counterpart as there is no use for it -
once the acceleration is enabled, the existing userspace won't
disable it unless a VFIO container is destroyed; this adds necessary
cleanup to the KVM_DEV_VFIO_GROUP_DEL handler.
This advertises the new KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_VFIO capability to the user
space.
This adds real mode version of WARN_ON_ONCE() as the generic version
causes problems with rcu_sched. Since we testing what vmalloc_to_phys()
returns in the code, this also adds a check for already existing
vmalloc_to_phys() call in kvmppc_rm_h_put_tce_indirect().
This finally makes use of vfio_external_user_iommu_id() which was
introduced quite some time ago and was considered for removal.
Tests show that this patch increases transmission speed from 220MB/s
to 750..1020MB/s on 10Gb network (Chelsea CXGB3 10Gb ethernet card).

We have 2 modes for dealing with interrupts in the ARM world. We can
either handle them all using hardware acceleration through the vgic or
we can emulate a gic in user space and only drive CPU IRQ pins from
there.
Unfortunately, when driving IRQs from user space, we never tell user
space about events from devices emulated inside the kernel, which may
result in interrupt line state changes, so we lose out on for example
timer and PMU events if we run with user space gic emulation.
Define an ABI to publish such device output levels to userspace.

and SINGLE-Interruption mode.
We introduce the 'simm' and 'nimm' fields in kvm_s390_float_interrupt
to store interruption modes for each ISC. Each bit in 'simm' and
'nimm' targets to one ISC, and collaboratively indicate three modes:
ALL-Interruptions, SINGLE-Interruption and NO-Interruptions. This
interface can initiate most transitions between the states; transition
from SINGLE-Interruption to NO-Interruptions via adapter interrupt
injection will be introduced in a following patch. The meaningful
combinations are as follows:
interruption mode | simm bit | nimm bit
------------------|----------|----------
ALL | 0 | 0
SINGLE | 1 | 0
NO | 1 | 1

Add new KVM_CAP_MIPS_VZ and KVM_CAP_MIPS_TE capabilities, and in order
to allow MIPS KVM to support VZ without confusing old users (which
expect the trap & emulate implementation), define and start checking
KVM_CREATE_VM type codes.
The codes available are:
- KVM_VM_MIPS_TE = 0
This is the current value expected from the user, and will create a
VM using trap & emulate in user mode, confined to the user mode
address space. This may in future become unavailable if the kernel is
only configured to support VZ, in which case the EINVAL error will be
returned and KVM_CAP_MIPS_TE won't be available even though
KVM_CAP_MIPS_VZ is.
- KVM_VM_MIPS_VZ = 1
This can be provided when the KVM_CAP_MIPS_VZ capability is available
to create a VM using VZ, with a fully virtualized guest virtual
address space. If VZ support is unavailable in the kernel, the EINVAL
error will be returned (although old kernels without the
KVM_CAP_MIPS_VZ capability may well succeed and create a trap &
emulate VM).
This is designed to allow the desired implementation (T&E vs VZ) to be
potentially chosen at runtime rather than being fixed in the kernel
configuration.

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

The big feature this time is support for POWER9 using the radix-tree
MMU for host and guest. This required some changes to arch/powerpc
code, so I talked with Michael Ellerman and he created a topic branch
with this patchset, which I merged into kvm-ppc-next and which Michael
will pull into his tree. Michael also put in some patches from Nick
Piggin which fix bugs in the interrupt vector code in relocatable
kernels when coming from a KVM guest.
Other notable changes include:
* Add the ability to change the size of the hashed page table,
from David Gibson.
* XICS (interrupt controller) emulation fixes and improvements,
from Li Zhong.
* Bug fixes from myself and Thomas Huth.
These patches define some new KVM capabilities and ioctls, but there
should be no conflicts with anything else currently upstream, as far
as I am aware.
Add a hypercall to retrieve the host realtime clock and the TSC value
used to calculate that clock read.

which is a required register since MIPS32r2. It is currently read-only

Expose the CP0_EntryLo0 and CP0_EntryLo1 registers through the KVM
register access API. This is fairly straightforward for trap & emulate
since we don't support the RI and XI bits. For the sake of future
proofing (particularly for VZ) it is explicitly specified that the API
always exposes the 64-bit version of these registers (i.e. with the RI
and XI bits in bit positions 63 and 62 respectively), and they are
implemented in trap_emul.c rather than mips.c to allow them to be
implemented differently for VZ.

The CP0_EBase register is a standard feature of MIPS32r2, so we should
always have been implementing it properly. However the register value
was ignored and wasn't exposed to userland.
Fix the emulation of exceptions and interrupts to use the value stored
in guest CP0_EBase, and fix the masks so that the top 3 bits (rather
than the standard 2) are fixed, so that it is always in the guest KSeg0
segment.
Also add CP0_EBASE to the KVM one_reg interface so it can be accessed by
userland, also allowing the CPU number field to be written (which isn't
permitted by the guest).

The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl() is used to set the size of hashed page
table (HPT) that userspace expects a guest VM to have, and is also used to
clear that HPT when necessary (e.g. guest reboot).
At present, once the ioctl() is called for the first time, the HPT size can
never be changed thereafter - it will be cleared but always sized as from
the first call.
With upcoming HPT resize implementation, we're going to need to allow
userspace to resize the HPT at reset (to change it back to the default size
if the guest changed it).
So, we need to allow this ioctl() to change the HPT size.
This patch also updates Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt to reflect
the new behaviour. In fact the documentation was already slightly
incorrect since 572abd5 "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't fall back to
smaller HPT size in allocation ioctl"

This adds a new powerpc-specific KVM_CAP_SPAPR_RESIZE_HPT capability to
advertise whether KVM is capable of handling the PAPR extensions for
resizing the hashed page table during guest runtime. It also adds
definitions for two new VM ioctl()s to implement this extension, and
documentation of the same.
Note that, HPT resizing is already possible with KVM PR without kernel
modification, since the HPT is managed within userspace (qemu). The
capability defined here will only be set where an in-kernel implementation
of resizing is necessary, i.e. for KVM HV. To determine if the userspace
resize implementation can be used, it's necessary to check
KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB. Unfortunately older kernels incorrectly set
KVM_CAP_PPC_ALLOC_HTAB even with KVM PR. If userspace it want to support
resizing with KVM PR on such kernels, it will need a workaround.

Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
This adds two capabilities and two ioctls to allow userspace to
find out about and configure the POWER9 MMU in a guest. The two
capabilities tell userspace whether KVM can support a guest using
the radix MMU, or using the hashed page table (HPT) MMU with a
process table and segment tables. (Note that the MMUs in the
POWER9 processor cores do not use the process and segment tables
when in HPT mode, but the nest MMU does).
The KVM_PPC_CONFIGURE_V3_MMU ioctl allows userspace to specify
whether a guest will use the radix MMU or the HPT MMU, and to
specify the size and location (in guest space) of the process
table.
The KVM_PPC_GET_RMMU_INFO ioctl gives userspace information about
the radix MMU. It returns a list of supported radix tree geometries
(base page size and number of bits indexed at each level of the
radix tree) and the encoding used to specify the various page
sizes for the TLB invalidate entry instruction.
Initially, both capabilities return 0 and the ioctls return -EINVAL,
until the necessary infrastructure for them to operate correctly
is added.

This adds code to handle two new guest-accessible special-purpose
registers on POWER9: TIDR (thread ID register) and PSSCR (processor
stop status and control register). They are context-switched
between host and guest, and the guest values can be read and set
via the one_reg interface.
The PSSCR contains some fields which are guest-accessible and some
which are only accessible in hypervisor mode. We only allow the
guest-accessible fields to be read or set by userspace.

When switching from/to a guest that has a transaction in progress,
we need to save/restore the checkpointed register state. Although
XER is part of the CPU state that gets checkpointed, the code that
does this saving and restoring doesn't save/restore XER.
This fixes it by saving and restoring the XER. To allow userspace
to read/write the checkpointed XER value, we also add a new ONE_REG
specifier.
The visible effect of this bug is that the guest may see its XER
value being corrupted when it uses transactions.
