      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a method for userspace to read and write the HPT · a2932923
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor.  Reads on
this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes
create and/or remove entries in the HPT.  There is a new capability,
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl.  The ioctl
takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to
read out and a set of flags.  The flags indicate whether the user is
intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries
or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in
the first doubleword).

This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for
live migration.  Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information
about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs).  When the first pass reaches the
end of the HPT, it returns from the read.  Subsequent reads only return
information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read.
A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last
read finished will return 0 bytes.

The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the
invalid entries.  Each block of data starts with a header that indicates
the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of
valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of
invalid entries following those valid entries.  The valid entries, 16
bytes each, follow the header.  The invalid entries are not explicitly
represented.

      KVM: Add resampling irqfds for level triggered interrupts · 7a84428a
      由 Alex Williamson 提交于 
      To emulate level triggered interrupts, add a resample option to
KVM_IRQFD.  When specified, a new resamplefd is provided that notifies
the user when the irqchip has been resampled by the VM.  This may, for
instance, indicate an EOI.  Also in this mode, posting of an interrupt
through an irqfd only asserts the interrupt.  On resampling, the
interrupt is automatically de-asserted prior to user notification.
This enables level triggered interrupts to be posted and re-enabled
from vfio with no userspace intervention.

All resampling irqfds can make use of a single irq source ID, so we
reserve a new one for this interface.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make the guest hash table size configurable · 32fad281
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This adds a new ioctl to enable userspace to control the size of the guest
hashed page table (HPT) and to clear it out when resetting the guest.
The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl is a VM ioctl and takes as its parameter
a pointer to a u32 containing the desired order of the HPT (log base 2
of the size in bytes), which is updated on successful return to the
actual order of the HPT which was allocated.

There must be no vcpus running at the time of this ioctl.  To enforce
this, we now keep a count of the number of vcpus running in
kvm->arch.vcpus_running.

If the ioctl is called when a HPT has already been allocated, we don't
reallocate the HPT but just clear it out.  We first clear the
kvm->arch.rma_setup_done flag, which has two effects: (a) since we hold
the kvm->lock mutex, it will prevent any vcpus from starting to run until
we're done, and (b) it means that the first vcpu to run after we're done
will re-establish the VRMA if necessary.

If userspace doesn't call this ioctl before running the first vcpu, the
kernel will allocate a default-sized HPT at that point.  We do it then
rather than when creating the VM, as the code did previously, so that
userspace has a chance to do the ioctl if it wants.

When allocating the HPT, we can allocate either from the kernel page
allocator, or from the preallocated pool.  If userspace is asking for
a different size from the preallocated HPTs, we first try to allocate
using the kernel page allocator.  Then we try to allocate from the
preallocated pool, and then if that fails, we try allocating decreasing
sizes from the kernel page allocator, down to the minimum size allowed
(256kB).  Note that the kernel page allocator limits allocations to
1 << CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER pages, which by default corresponds to
16MB (on 64-bit powerpc, at least).

      KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuid · 4d25a066
      由 Jan Kiszka 提交于 
      Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set
unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants.

This is broken in several ways:
 - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC
   deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break
 - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline
   timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet;
   breaking it
 - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail.

Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace.
Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee
will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.

Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

      Until now, we always set HIOR based on the PVR, but this is just wrong.
Instead, we should be setting HIOR explicitly, so user space can decide

We keep the old PVR based way around for backwards compatibility, but
once user space uses the SREGS based method, we drop the PVR logic.

      KVM: x86: Raise the hard VCPU count limit · 8c3ba334

      The patch raises the hard limit of VCPU count to 254.

This will allow developers to easily work on scalability
and will allow users to test high VCPU setups easily without
patching the kernel.

To prevent possible issues with current setups, KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS
now returns the recommended VCPU limit (which is still 64) - this
should be a safe value for everybody, while a new KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS
returns the hard limit which is now 254.

      KVM: PPC: Allocate RMAs (Real Mode Areas) at boot for use by guests · aa04b4cc
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This adds infrastructure which will be needed to allow book3s_hv KVM to
run on older POWER processors, including PPC970, which don't support
the Virtual Real Mode Area (VRMA) facility, but only the Real Mode
Offset (RMO) facility.  These processors require a physically
contiguous, aligned area of memory for each guest.  When the guest does
an access in real mode (MMU off), the address is compared against a
limit value, and if it is lower, the address is ORed with an offset
value (from the Real Mode Offset Register (RMOR)) and the result becomes
the real address for the access.  The size of the RMA has to be one of
a set of supported values, which usually includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB
and some larger powers of 2.

Since we are unlikely to be able to allocate 64MB or more of physically
contiguous memory after the kernel has been running for a while, we
allocate a pool of RMAs at boot time using the bootmem allocator.  The
size and number of the RMAs can be set using the kvm_rma_size=xx and
kvm_rma_count=xx kernel command line options.

KVM exports a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA, to signal the availability
of the pool of preallocated RMAs.  The capability value is 1 if the
processor can use an RMA but doesn't require one (because it supports
the VRMA facility), or 2 if the processor requires an RMA for each guest.

This adds a new ioctl, KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA, which allocates an RMA from the
pool and returns a file descriptor which can be used to map the RMA.  It
also returns the size of the RMA in the argument structure.

Having an RMA means we will get multiple KMV_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
ioctl calls from userspace.  To cope with this, we now preallocate the
kvm->arch.ram_pginfo array when the VM is created with a size sufficient
for up to 64GB of guest memory.  Subsequently we will get rid of this
array and use memory associated with each memslot instead.

This moves most of the code that translates the user addresses into
host pfns (page frame numbers) out of kvmppc_prepare_vrma up one level
to kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region.  Also, instead of having to look
up the VMA for each page in order to check the page size, we now check
that the pages we get are compound pages of 16MB.  However, if we are
adding memory that is mapped to an RMA, we don't bother with calling
get_user_pages_fast and instead just offset from the base pfn for the
RMA.

Typically the RMA gets added after vcpus are created, which makes it
inconvenient to have the LPCR (logical partition control register) value
in the vcpu->arch struct, since the LPCR controls whether the processor
uses RMA or VRMA for the guest.  This moves the LPCR value into the
kvm->arch struct and arranges for the MER (mediated external request)
bit, which is the only bit that varies between vcpus, to be set in
assembly code when going into the guest if there is a pending external
interrupt request.

      KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use SMT processor modes · 371fefd6
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This lifts the restriction that book3s_hv guests can only run one
hardware thread per core, and allows them to use up to 4 threads
per core on POWER7.  The host still has to run single-threaded.

This capability is advertised to qemu through a new KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT
capability.  The return value of the ioctl querying this capability
is the number of vcpus per virtual CPU core (vcore), currently 4.

To use this, the host kernel should be booted with all threads
active, and then all the secondary threads should be offlined.
This will put the secondary threads into nap mode.  KVM will then
wake them from nap mode and use them for running guest code (while
they are still offline).  To wake the secondary threads, we send
them an IPI using a new xics_wake_cpu() function, implemented in
arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/icp-native.c.  In other words, at this stage
we assume that the platform has a XICS interrupt controller and
we are using icp-native.c to drive it.  Since the woken thread will
need to acknowledge and clear the IPI, we also export the base
physical address of the XICS registers using kvmppc_set_xics_phys()
for use in the low-level KVM book3s code.

When a vcpu is created, it is assigned to a virtual CPU core.
The vcore number is obtained by dividing the vcpu number by the
number of threads per core in the host.  This number is exported
to userspace via the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability.  If qemu wishes
to run the guest in single-threaded mode, it should make all vcpu
numbers be multiples of the number of threads per core.

We distinguish three states of a vcpu: runnable (i.e., ready to execute
the guest), blocked (that is, idle), and busy in host.  We currently
implement a policy that the vcore can run only when all its threads
are runnable or blocked.  This way, if a vcpu needs to execute elsewhere
in the kernel or in qemu, it can do so without being starved of CPU
by the other vcpus.

When a vcore starts to run, it executes in the context of one of the
vcpu threads.  The other vcpu threads all go to sleep and stay asleep
until something happens requiring the vcpu thread to return to qemu,
or to wake up to run the vcore (this can happen when another vcpu
thread goes from busy in host state to blocked).

It can happen that a vcpu goes from blocked to runnable state (e.g.
because of an interrupt), and the vcore it belongs to is already
running.  In that case it can start to run immediately as long as
the none of the vcpus in the vcore have started to exit the guest.
We send the next free thread in the vcore an IPI to get it to start
to execute the guest.  It synchronizes with the other threads via
the vcore->entry_exit_count field to make sure that it doesn't go
into the guest if the other vcpus are exiting by the time that it
is ready to actually enter the guest.

Note that there is no fixed relationship between the hardware thread
number and the vcpu number.  Hardware threads are assigned to vcpus
as they become runnable, so we will always use the lower-numbered
hardware threads in preference to higher-numbered threads if not all
the vcpus in the vcore are runnable, regardless of which vcpus are
runnable.

      KVM: PPC: Accelerate H_PUT_TCE by implementing it in real mode · 54738c09
      由 David Gibson 提交于 
      This improves I/O performance for guests using the PAPR
paravirtualization interface by making the H_PUT_TCE hcall faster, by
implementing it in real mode.  H_PUT_TCE is used for updating virtual
IOMMU tables, and is used both for virtual I/O and for real I/O in the
PAPR interface.

Since this moves the IOMMU tables into the kernel, we define a new
KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE ioctl to allow qemu to create the tables.  The
ioctl returns a file descriptor which can be used to mmap the newly
created table.  The qemu driver models use them in the same way as
userspace managed tables, but they can be updated directly by the
guest with a real-mode H_PUT_TCE implementation, reducing the number
of host/guest context switches during guest IO.

There are certain circumstances where it is useful for userland qemu
to write to the TCE table even if the kernel H_PUT_TCE path is used
most of the time.  Specifically, allowing this will avoid awkwardness
when we need to reset the table.  More importantly, we will in the
future need to write the table in order to restore its state after a
checkpoint resume or migration.

      KVM: PPC: Add support for Book3S processors in hypervisor mode · de56a948
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors,
specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode.  Using hypervisor mode means
that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode.  That means
that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged
registers itself without trapping to the host.  This gives excellent
performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor
architecture other than the one that the hardware implements.

This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the
PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the
interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses.  That means that existing
Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run
under KVM without modification.  In order to communicate the PAPR
hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code
to include/linux/kvm.h.

Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support
(i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be
made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only
do one or the other.

This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present.
Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious
restriction.

With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight
to the guest.  We will never get data or instruction storage or segment
interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program
interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from
the guest.  Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the
exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry
to those exception handlers.

We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage,
hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist
interrupts, so we have to handle those.

In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just
a limited amount.  Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch
and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space.
We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use
anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it.
We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a
kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers,
so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct.

The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have
to be in the same partition.  MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition
(partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and
exit from the guest.  At present we require the host and guest to run
in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction.

This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes
it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA).  We
require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in
order to simplify the low-level memory management.  This also means that
we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now,
since huge pages can't be paged or swapped.

This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.
