This patch turns on the 16K page support in the kernel. We support 48bit VA (4 level page tables) and 47bit VA (3 level page tables). With 16K we can map 128 entries using contiguous bit hint at level 3 to map 2M using single TLB entry. TODO: 16K supports 32 contiguous entries at level 2 to get us 1G(which is not yet supported by the infrastructure). That should be a separate patch altogether.

This patch removes config option of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS, and like other ARCHs, just choose the maximum allowed value from hardware, and follows the reasons: 1) from distribution view, the option has to be defined as the max allowed value because it need to meet all kinds of virtulization applications and need to support most of SoCs; 2) using a bigger value doesn't introduce extra memory consumption, and the help text in Kconfig isn't accurate because kvm_vpu structure isn't allocated until request of creating VCPU is sent from QEMU; 3) the main effect is that the field of vcpus[] in 'struct kvm' becomes a bit bigger(sizeof(void *) per vcpu) and need more cache lines to hold the structure, but 'struct kvm' is one generic struct, and it has worked well on other ARCHs already in this way. Also, the world switch frequecy is often low, for example, it is ~2000 when running kernel building load in VM from APM xgene KVM host, so the effect is very small, and the difference can't be observed in my test at all.

This patch enables irqfd on arm/arm64. Both irqfd and resamplefd are supported. Injection is implemented in vgic.c without routing. This patch enables CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD and CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD. KVM_CAP_IRQFD is now advertised. KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE capability automatically is advertised as soon as CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD is set. Irqfd injection is restricted to SPI. The rationale behind not supporting PPI irqfd injection is that any device using a PPI would be a private-to-the-CPU device (timer for instance), so its state would have to be context-switched along with the VCPU and would require in-kernel wiring anyhow. It is not a relevant use case for irqfds.

CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQCHIP is needed to support IRQ routing (along with irq_comm.c and irqchip.c usage). This is not the case for arm/arm64 currently. This patch unsets the flag for both arm and arm64.

We can definitely decide at run-time whether to use the GIC and timers or not, and the extra code and data structures that we allocate space for is really negligable with this config option, so I don't think it's worth the extra complexity of always having to define stub static inlines. The !CONFIG_KVM_ARM_VGIC/TIMER case is pretty much an untested code path anyway, so we're better off just getting rid of it.

SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable. The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making use of SRCU are selected. If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all. text data bss dec hex filename 2007 0 0 2007 7d7 kernel/rcu/srcu.o Size of arch/powerpc/boot/zImage changes from text data bss dec hex filename 831552 64180 23944 919676 e087c arch/powerpc/boot/zImage : before 829504 64180 23952 917636 e0084 arch/powerpc/boot/zImage : after so the savings are about ~2000 bytes.

Current max VCPUs per-Guest is set to 4 which is preventing us from creating a Guest (or VM) with 8 VCPUs on Host (e.g. X-Gene Storm SOC) with 8 Host CPUs. The correct value of max VCPUs per-Guest should be same as the max CPUs supported by GICv2 which is 8 but, increasing value of max VCPUs per-Guest can make things slower hence we add Kconfig option to let KVM users select appropriate max VCPUs per-Guest.

On an (even slightly) oversubscribed system, spinlocks are quickly becoming a bottleneck, as some vcpus are spinning, waiting for a lock to be released, while the vcpu holding the lock may not be running at all. The solution is to trap blocking WFEs and tell KVM that we're now spinning. This ensures that other vpus will get a scheduling boost, allowing the lock to be released more quickly. Also, using CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT slightly improves the performance when the VM is severely overcommited.
