General KVM huge page support on s390 has to be enabled via the kvm.hpage module parameter. Either nested or hpage can be enabled, as we currently do not support vSIE for huge backed guests. Once the vSIE support is added we will either drop the parameter or enable it as default. For a guest the feature has to be enabled through the new KVM_CAP_S390_HPAGE_1M capability and the hpage module parameter. Enabling it means that cmm can't be enabled for the vm and disables pfmf and storage key interpretation. This is due to the fact that in some cases, in upcoming patches, we have to split huge pages in the guest mapping to be able to set more granular memory protection on 4k pages. These split pages have fake page tables that are not visible to the Linux memory management which subsequently will not manage its PGSTEs, while the SIE will. Disabling these features lets us manage PGSTE data in a consistent matter and solve that problem.

KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED seems to be somewhat confusing: Guest doesn't really care whether it's the only task running on a host CPU as long as it's not preempted. And there are more reasons for Guest to be preempted than host CPU sharing, for example, with memory overcommit it can get preempted on a memory access, post copy migration can cause preemption, etc. Let's call it KVM_HINTS_REALTIME which seems to better match what guests expect.

Although we've implemented PSCI 0.1, 0.2 and 1.0, we expose either 0.1 or 1.0 to a guest, defaulting to the latest version of the PSCI implementation that is compatible with the requested version. This is no different from doing a firmware upgrade on KVM. But in order to give a chance to hypothetical badly implemented guests that would have a fit by discovering something other than PSCI 0.2, let's provide a new API that allows userspace to pick one particular version of the API. This is implemented as a new class of "firmware" registers, where we expose the PSCI version. This allows the PSCI version to be save/restored as part of a guest migration, and also set to any supported version if the guest requires it.

This commit implements an enhanced x86 version of S390 KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS functionality. KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS "allow[s] userspace to access certain guest registers without having to call SET/GET_*REGS”. This reduces ioctl overhead which is particularly important when userspace is making synchronous guest state modifications (e.g. when emulating and/or intercepting instructions). Originally implemented upstream for the S390, the x86 differences follow: - userspace can select the register sets to be synchronized with kvm_run using bit-flags in the kvm_valid_registers and kvm_dirty_registers fields. - vcpu_events is available in addition to the regs and sregs register sets.

In Hyper-V, the fast guest->host notification mechanism is the SIGNAL_EVENT hypercall, with a single parameter of the connection ID to signal. Currently this hypercall incurs a user exit and requires the userspace to decode the parameters and trigger the notification of the potentially different I/O context. To avoid the costly user exit, process this hypercall and signal the corresponding eventfd in KVM, similar to ioeventfd. The association between the connection id and the eventfd is established via the newly introduced KVM_HYPERV_EVENTFD ioctl, and maintained in an (srcu-protected) IDR.

Remote TLB flush does a busy wait which is fine in bare-metal scenario. But with-in the guest, the vcpus might have been pre-empted or blocked. In this scenario, the initator vcpu would end up busy-waiting for a long amount of time; it also consumes CPU unnecessarily to wake up the target of the shootdown. This patch set adds support for KVM's new paravirtualized TLB flush; remote TLB flush does not wait for vcpus that are sleeping, instead KVM will flush the TLB as soon as the vCPU starts running again. The improvement is clearly visible when the host is overcommitted; in this case, the PV TLB flush (in addition to avoiding the wait on the main CPU) prevents preempted vCPUs from stealing precious execution time from the running ones.

This adds a register identifier for use with the one_reg interface to allow the decrementer expiry time to be read and written by userspace. The decrementer expiry time is in guest timebase units and is equal to the sum of the decrementer and the guest timebase. (The expiry time is used rather than the decrementer value itself because the expiry time is not constantly changing, though the decrementer value is, while the guest vcpu is not running.) Without this, a guest vcpu migrated to a new host will see its decrementer set to some random value. On POWER8 and earlier, the decrementer is 32 bits wide and counts down at 512MHz, so the guest vcpu will potentially see no decrementer interrupts for up to about 4 seconds, which will lead to a stall. With POWER9, the decrementer is now 56 bits side, so the stall can be much longer (up to 2.23 years) and more noticeable. To help work around the problem in cases where userspace has not been updated to migrate the decrementer expiry time, we now set the default decrementer expiry at vcpu creation time to the current time rather than the maximum possible value. This should mean an immediate decrementer interrupt when a migrated vcpu starts running. In cases where the decrementer is 32 bits wide and more than 4 seconds elapse between the creation of the vcpu and when it first runs, the decrementer would have wrapped around to positive values and there may still be a stall - but this is no worse than the current situation. In the large-decrementer case, we are sure to get an immediate decrementer interrupt (assuming the time from vcpu creation to first run is less than 2.23 years) and we thus avoid a very long stall.

At the moment, the in-kernel emulated ITS is not properly reset. On guest restart/reset some registers keep their old values and internal structures like device, ITE, and collection lists are not freed. This may lead to various bugs. Among them, we can have incorrect state backup or failure when saving the ITS state at early guest boot stage. This patch documents a new attribute, KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_CTRL_RESET in the KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL group. Upon this action, we can reset registers and especially those pointing to tables previously allocated by the guest and free the internal data structures storing the list of devices, collections and lpis. The usual approach for device reset of having userspace write the reset values of the registers to the kernel via the register read/write APIs doesn't work for the ITS because it has some internal state (caches) which is not exposed as registers, and there is no register interface for "drop cached data without writing it back to RAM". So we need a KVM API which mimics the hardware's reset line, to provide the equivalent behaviour to a "pull the power cord out of the back of the machine" reset.

When migrating guests around we need to know the active priorities to ensure functional virtual interrupt prioritization by the GIC. This commit clarifies the API and how active priorities of interrupts in different groups are represented, and implements the accessor functions for the uaccess register range. We live with a slight layering violation in accessing GICv3 data structures from vgic-mmio-v2.c, because anything else just adds too much complexity for us to deal with (it's not like there's a benefit elsewhere in the code of an intermediate representation as is the case with the VMCR). We accept this, because while doing v3 processing from a file named something-v2.c can look strange at first, this really is specific to dealing with the user space interface for something that looks like a GICv2.

It is defined by the spec as a sequential number which can't exceed the maximum number of vCPUs per VM. APIC ids can be sparse and thus aren't a valid replacement for VP indices. Current KVM uses its internal vcpu index as VP_INDEX. However, to make it predictable and persistent across VM migrations, the userspace has to control the value of VP_INDEX. This patch achieves that, by storing vp_index explicitly on vcpu, and allowing HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX to be set from the host side. For compatibility it's initialized to KVM vcpu index. Also a few variables are renamed to make clear distinction betweed this Hyper-V vp_index and KVM vcpu_id (== APIC id). Besides, a new capability, KVM_CAP_HYPERV_VP_INDEX, is added to allow the userspace to skip attempting msr writes where unsupported, to avoid spamming error logs.

Adds another flag bit (bit 2) to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN. If bit 2 is 1, async page faults are delivered to L1 as #PF vmexits; if bit 2 is 0, kvm_can_do_async_pf returns 0 if in guest mode. This is similar to what svm.c wanted to do all along, but it is only enabled for Linux as L1 hypervisor. Foreign hypervisors must never receive async page faults as vmexits, because they'd probably be very confused about that.

There is a flaw in the Hyper-V SynIC implementation in KVM: when message page or event flags page is enabled by setting the corresponding msr, KVM zeroes it out. This is problematic because on migration the corresponding MSRs are loaded on the destination, so the content of those pages is lost. This went unnoticed so far because the only user of those pages was in-KVM hyperv synic timers, which could continue working despite that zeroing. Newer QEMU uses those pages for Hyper-V VMBus implementation, and zeroing them breaks the migration. Besides, in newer QEMU the content of those pages is fully managed by QEMU, so zeroing them is undesirable even when writing the MSRs from the guest side. To support this new scheme, introduce a new capability, KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2, which, when enabled, makes sure that the synic pages aren't zeroed out in KVM.
