      KVM: x86: switch KVMCLOCK base to monotonic raw clock · 53fafdbb
      Marcelo Tosatti 提交于
      Commit 0bc48bea ("KVM: x86: update master clock before computing
      kvmclock_offset")
      switches the order of operations to avoid the conversion
      
      TSC (without frequency correction) ->
      system_timestamp (with frequency correction),
      
      which might cause a time jump.
      
      However, it leaves any other masterclock update unsafe, which includes,
      at the moment:
      
              * HV_X64_MSR_REFERENCE_TSC MSR write.
              * TSC writes.
              * Host suspend/resume.
      
      Avoid the time jump issue by using frequency uncorrected
      CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW clock.
      
      Its the guests time keeping software responsability
      to track and correct a reference clock such as UTC.
      
      This fixes forward time jump (which can result in
      failure to bring up a vCPU) during vCPU hotplug:
      
      Oct 11 14:48:33 storage kernel: CPU2 has been hot-added
      Oct 11 14:48:34 storage kernel: CPU3 has been hot-added
      Oct 11 14:49:22 storage kernel: smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 2 APIC 0x2          <-- time jump of almost 1 minute
      Oct 11 14:49:22 storage kernel: smpboot: do_boot_cpu failed(-1) to wakeup CPU#2
      Oct 11 14:49:23 storage kernel: smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 3 APIC 0x3
      Oct 11 14:49:23 storage kernel: kvm-clock: cpu 3, msr 0:7ff640c1, secondary cpu clock
      
      Which happens because:
      
                      /*
                       * Wait 10s total for a response from AP
                       */
                      boot_error = -1;
                      timeout = jiffies + 10*HZ;
                      while (time_before(jiffies, timeout)) {
                               ...
                      }

      Merge tag 'kvm-ppc-next-5.5-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc into HEAD
      
      KVM PPC update for 5.5
      
      * Add capability to tell userspace whether we can single-step the guest.
      
      * Improve the allocation of XIVE virtual processor IDs, to reduce the
        risk of running out of IDs when running many VMs on POWER9.
      
      * Rewrite interrupt synthesis code to deliver interrupts in virtual
        mode when appropriate.
      
      * Minor cleanups and improvements.
