    KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Report VPA and DTL modifications in dirty map · c35635ef

    At present, the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl doesn't report modifications
    done by the host to the virtual processor areas (VPAs) and dispatch
    trace logs (DTLs) registered by the guest.  This is because those
    modifications are done either in real mode or in the host kernel
    context, and in neither case does the access go through the guest's
    HPT, and thus no change (C) bit gets set in the guest's HPT.
    
    However, the changes done by the host do need to be tracked so that
    the modified pages get transferred when doing live migration.  In
    order to track these modifications, this adds a dirty flag to the
    struct representing the VPA/DTL areas, and arranges to set the flag
    when the VPA/DTL gets modified by the host.  Then, when we are
    collecting the dirty log, we also check the dirty flags for the
    VPA and DTL for each vcpu and set the relevant bit in the dirty log
    if necessary.  Doing this also means we now need to keep track of
    the guest physical address of the VPA/DTL areas.
    
    So as not to lose track of modifications to a VPA/DTL area when it gets
    unregistered, or when a new area gets registered in its place, we need
    to transfer the dirty state to the rmap chain.  This adds code to
    kvmppc_unpin_guest_page() to do that if the area was dirty.  To simplify
    that code, we now require that all VPA, DTL and SLB shadow buffer areas
    fit within a single host page.  Guests already comply with this
    requirement because pHyp requires that these areas not cross a 4k
    boundary.
