This takes out the code that arranges to run two (or more) virtual cores on a single subcore when possible, that is, when both vcores are from the same VM, the VM is configured with one CPU thread per virtual core, and all the per-subcore registers have the same value in each vcore. Since the VTB (virtual timebase) is a per-subcore register, and will almost always differ between vcores, this code is disabled on POWER8 machines, meaning that it is only usable on POWER7 machines (which don't have VTB). Given the tiny number of POWER7 machines which have firmware that allows them to run HV KVM, the benefit of simplifying the code outweighs the loss of this feature on POWER7 machines.

POWER8 has one virtual timebase (VTB) register per subcore, not one per CPU thread. The HV KVM code currently treats VTB as a per-thread register, which can lead to spurious soft lockup messages from guests which use the VTB as the time source for the soft lockup detector. (CPUs before POWER8 did not have the VTB register.) For HV KVM, this fixes the problem by making only the primary thread in each virtual core save and restore the VTB value. With this, the VTB state becomes part of the kvmppc_vcore structure. This also means that "piggybacking" of multiple virtual cores onto one subcore is not possible on POWER8, because then the virtual cores would share a single VTB register. PR KVM emulates a VTB register, which is per-vcpu because PR KVM has no notion of CPU threads or SMT. For PR KVM we move the VTB state into the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct.

When a guest has a PCI pass-through device with an interrupt, it will direct the interrupt to a particular guest VCPU. In fact the physical interrupt might arrive on any CPU, and then get delivered to the target VCPU in the emulated XICS (guest interrupt controller), and eventually delivered to the target VCPU. Now that we have code to handle device interrupts in real mode without exiting to the host kernel, there is an advantage to having the device interrupt arrive on the same sub(core) as the target VCPU is running on. In this situation, the interrupt can be delivered to the target VCPU without any exit to the host kernel (using a hypervisor doorbell interrupt between threads if necessary). This patch aims to get passed-through device interrupts arriving on the correct core by setting the interrupt server in the real hardware XICS for the interrupt to the first thread in the (sub)core where its target VCPU is running. We do this in the real-mode H_EOI code because the H_EOI handler already needs to look at the emulated ICS state for the interrupt (whereas the H_XIRR handler doesn't), and we know we are running in the target VCPU context at that point. We set the server CPU in hardware using an OPAL call, regardless of what the IRQ affinity mask for the interrupt says, and without updating the affinity mask. This amounts to saying that when an interrupt is passed through to a guest, as a matter of policy we allow the guest's affinity for the interrupt to override the host's. This is inspired by an earlier patch from Suresh Warrier, although none of this code came from that earlier patch. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

In existing real mode ICP code, when updating the virtual ICP state, if there is a required action that cannot be completely handled in real mode, as for instance, a VCPU needs to be woken up, flags are set in the ICP to indicate the required action. This is checked when returning from hypercalls to decide whether the call needs switch back to the host where the action can be performed in virtual mode. Note that if h_ipi_redirect is enabled, real mode code will first try to message a free host CPU to complete this job instead of returning the host to do it ourselves. Currently, the real mode PCI passthrough interrupt handling code checks if any of these flags are set and simply returns to the host. This is not good enough as the trap value (0x500) is treated as an external interrupt by the host code. It is only when the trap value is a hypercall that the host code searches for and acts on unfinished work by calling kvmppc_xics_rm_complete. This patch introduces a special trap BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_HV_RM_HARD which is returned by KVM if there is unfinished business to be completed in host virtual mode after handling a PCI passthrough interrupt. The host checks for this special interrupt condition and calls into the kvmppc_xics_rm_complete, which is made an exported function for this reason.

Currently, KVM switches back to the host to handle any external interrupt (when the interrupt is received while running in the guest). This patch updates real-mode KVM to check if an interrupt is generated by a passthrough adapter that is owned by this guest. If so, the real mode KVM will directly inject the corresponding virtual interrupt to the guest VCPU's ICS and also EOI the interrupt in hardware. In short, the interrupt is handled entirely in real mode in the guest context without switching back to the host. In some rare cases, the interrupt cannot be completely handled in real mode, for instance, a VCPU that is sleeping needs to be woken up. In this case, KVM simply switches back to the host with trap reason set to 0x500. This works, but it is clearly not very efficient. A following patch will distinguish this case and handle it correctly in the host. Note that we can use the existing check_too_hard() routine even though we are not in a hypercall to determine if there is unfinished business that needs to be completed in host virtual mode. The patch assumes that the mapping between hardware interrupt IRQ and virtual IRQ to be injected to the guest already exists for the PCI passthrough interrupts that need to be handled in real mode. If the mapping does not exist, KVM falls back to the default existing behavior. The KVM real mode code reads mappings from the mapped array in the passthrough IRQ map without taking any lock. We carefully order the loads and stores of the fields in the kvmppc_irq_map data structure using memory barriers to avoid an inconsistent mapping being seen by the reader. Thus, although it is possible to miss a map entry, it is not possible to read a stale value. [paulus@ozlabs.org - get irq_chip from irq_map rather than pimap, pulled out powernv eoi change into a separate patch, made kvmppc_read_intr get the vcpu from the paca rather than being passed in, rewrote the logic at the end of kvmppc_read_intr to avoid deep indentation, simplified logic in book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S since we were always restoring SRR0/1 anyway, get rid of the cached array (just use the mapped array), removed the kick_all_cpus_sync() call, clear saved_xirr PACA field when we handle the interrupt in real mode, fix compilation with CONFIG_KVM_XICS=n.] Signed-off-by: NSuresh Warrier <warrier@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

Add the irq_bypass_add_producer and irq_bypass_del_producer functions. These functions get called whenever a GSI is being defined for a guest. They create/remove the mapping between host real IRQ numbers and the guest GSI. Add the following helper functions to manage the passthrough IRQ map. kvmppc_set_passthru_irq() Creates a mapping in the passthrough IRQ map that maps a host IRQ to a guest GSI. It allocates the structure (one per guest VM) the first time it is called. kvmppc_clr_passthru_irq() Removes the passthrough IRQ map entry given a guest GSI. The passthrough IRQ map structure is not freed even when the number of mapped entries goes to zero. It is only freed when the VM is destroyed.

vcpu stats are used to collect information about a vcpu which can be viewed in the debugfs. For example halt_attempted_poll and halt_successful_poll are used to keep track of the number of times the vcpu attempts to and successfully polls. These stats are currently not used on powerpc. Implement incrementation of the halt_attempted_poll and halt_successful_poll vcpu stats for powerpc. Since these stats are summed over all the vcpus for all running guests it doesn't matter which vcpu they are attributed to, thus we choose the current runner vcpu of the vcore. Also add new vcpu stats: halt_poll_success_ns, halt_poll_fail_ns and halt_wait_ns to be used to accumulate the total time spend polling successfully, polling unsuccessfully and waiting respectively, and halt_successful_wait to accumulate the number of times the vcpu waits. Given that halt_poll_success_ns, halt_poll_fail_ns and halt_wait_ns are expressed in nanoseconds it is necessary to represent these as 64-bit quantities, otherwise they would overflow after only about 4 seconds. Given that the total time spend either polling or waiting will be known and the number of times that each was done, it will be possible to determine the average poll and wait times. This will give the ability to tune the kvm module parameters based on the calculated average wait and poll times.

This patch introduces new halt polling functionality into the kvm_hv kernel module. When a vcore is idle it will poll for some period of time before scheduling itself out. When all of the runnable vcpus on a vcore have ceded (and thus the vcore is idle) we schedule ourselves out to allow something else to run. In the event that we need to wake up very quickly (for example an interrupt arrives), we are required to wait until we get scheduled again. Implement halt polling so that when a vcore is idle, and before scheduling ourselves, we poll for vcpus in the runnable_threads list which have pending exceptions or which leave the ceded state. If we poll successfully then we can get back into the guest very quickly without ever scheduling ourselves, otherwise we schedule ourselves out as before. There exists generic halt_polling code in virt/kvm_main.c, however on powerpc the polling conditions are different to the generic case. It would be nice if we could just implement an arch specific kvm_check_block() function, but there is still other arch specific things which need to be done for kvm_hv (for example manipulating vcore states) which means that a separate implementation is the best option. Testing of this patch with a TCP round robin test between two guests with virtio network interfaces has found a decrease in round trip time of ~15us on average. A performance gain is only seen when going out of and back into the guest often and quickly, otherwise there is no net benefit from the polling. The polling interval is adjusted such that when we are often scheduled out for long periods of time it is reduced, and when we often poll successfully it is increased. The rate at which the polling interval increases or decreases, and the maximum polling interval, can be set through module parameters. Based on the implementation in the generic kvm module by Wanpeng Li and Paolo Bonzini, and on direction from Paul Mackerras.

The runnable_threads element of the struct provides a list of all of the currently runnable vcpus on the core (those in the KVMPPC_VCPU_RUNNABLE state). The previous implementation of this list was a linked_list. The next patch requires that the list be able to be iterated over without holding the vcore lock.

When a guest is assigned to a core it converts the host Timebase (TB) into guest TB by adding guest timebase offset before entering into guest. During guest exit it restores the guest TB to host TB. This means under certain conditions (Guest migration) host TB and guest TB can differ. When we get an HMI for TB related issues the opal HMI handler would try fixing errors and restore the correct host TB value. With no guest running, we don't have any issues. But with guest running on the core we run into TB corruption issues. If we get an HMI while in the guest, the current HMI handler invokes opal hmi handler before forcing guest to exit. The guest exit path subtracts the guest TB offset from the current TB value which may have already been restored with host value by opal hmi handler. This leads to incorrect host and guest TB values. With split-core, things become more complex. With split-core, TB also gets split and each subcore gets its own TB register. When a hmi handler fixes a TB error and restores the TB value, it affects all the TB values of sibling subcores on the same core. On TB errors all the thread in the core gets HMI. With existing code, the individual threads call opal hmi handle independently which can easily throw TB out of sync if we have guest running on subcores. Hence we will need to co-ordinate with all the threads before making opal hmi handler call followed by TB resync. This patch introduces a sibling subcore state structure (shared by all threads in the core) in paca which holds information about whether sibling subcores are in Guest mode or host mode. An array in_guest[] of size MAX_SUBCORE_PER_CORE=4 is used to maintain the state of each subcore. The subcore id is used as index into in_guest[] array. Only primary thread entering/exiting the guest is responsible to set/unset its designated array element. On TB error, we get HMI interrupt on every thread on the core. Upon HMI, this patch will now force guest to vacate the core/subcore. Primary thread from each subcore will then turn off its respective bit from the above bitmap during the guest exit path just after the guest->host partition switch is complete. All other threads that have just exited the guest OR were already in host will wait until all other subcores clears their respective bit. Once all the subcores turn off their respective bit, all threads will will make call to opal hmi handler. It is not necessary that opal hmi handler would resync the TB value for every HMI interrupts. It would do so only for the HMI caused due to TB errors. For rest, it would not touch TB value. Hence to make things simpler, primary thread would call TB resync explicitly once for each core immediately after opal hmi handler instead of subtracting guest offset from TB. TB resync call will restore the TB with host value. Thus we can be sure about the TB state. One of the primary threads exiting the guest will take up the responsibility of calling TB resync. It will use one of the top bits (bit 63) from subcore state flags bitmap to make the decision. The first primary thread (among the subcores) that is able to set the bit will have to call the TB resync. Rest all other threads will wait until TB resync is complete. Once TB resync is complete all threads will then proceed. Signed-off-by: NMahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>

This patch defines the data structures to support the setting up of host side operations while running in real mode in the guest, and also the functions to allocate and free it. The operations are for now limited to virtual XICS operations. Currently, we have only defined one operation in the data structure: - Wake up a VCPU sleeping in the host when it receives a virtual interrupt The operations are assigned at the core level because PowerKVM requires that the host run in SMT off mode. For each core, we will need to manage its state atomically - where the state is defined by: 1. Is the core running in the host? 2. Is there a Real Mode (RM) operation pending on the host? Currently, core state is only managed at the whole-core level even when the system is in split-core mode. This just limits the number of free or "available" cores in the host to perform any host-side operations. The kvmppc_host_rm_core.rm_data allows any data to be passed by KVM in real mode to the host core along with the operation to be performed. The kvmppc_host_rm_ops structure is allocated the very first time a guest VM is started. Initial core state is also set - all online cores are in the host. This structure is never deleted, not even when there are no active guests. However, it needs to be freed when the module is unloaded because the kvmppc_host_rm_ops_hv can contain function pointers to kvm-hv.ko functions for the different supported host operations.

The problem: On -rt, an emulated LAPIC timer instances has the following path: 1) hard interrupt 2) ksoftirqd is scheduled 3) ksoftirqd wakes up vcpu thread 4) vcpu thread is scheduled This extra context switch introduces unnecessary latency in the LAPIC path for a KVM guest. The solution: Allow waking up vcpu thread from hardirq context, thus avoiding the need for ksoftirqd to be scheduled. Normal waitqueues make use of spinlocks, which on -RT are sleepable locks. Therefore, waking up a waitqueue waiter involves locking a sleeping lock, which is not allowed from hard interrupt context. cyclictest command line: This patch reduces the average latency in my tests from 14us to 11us.

This adds real and virtual mode handlers for the H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and H_STUFF_TCE hypercalls for user space emulated devices such as IBMVIO devices or emulated PCI. These calls allow adding multiple entries (up to 512) into the TCE table in one call which saves time on transition between kernel and user space. The current implementation of kvmppc_h_stuff_tce() allows it to be executed in both real and virtual modes so there is one helper. The kvmppc_rm_h_put_tce_indirect() needs to translate the guest address to the host address and since the translation is different, there are 2 helpers - one for each mode. This implements the KVM_CAP_PPC_MULTITCE capability. When present, the kernel will try handling H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and H_STUFF_TCE if these are enabled by the userspace via KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL. If they can not be handled by the kernel, they are passed on to the user space. The user space still has to have an implementation for these. Both HV and PR-syle KVM are supported.

Currently it is possible for userspace (e.g. QEMU) to set a value for the MSR for a guest VCPU which has both of the TS bits set, which is an illegal combination. The result of this is that when we execute a hrfid (hypervisor return from interrupt doubleword) instruction to enter the guest, the CPU will take a TM Bad Thing type of program interrupt (vector 0x700). Now, if PR KVM is configured in the kernel along with HV KVM, we actually handle this without crashing the host or giving hypervisor privilege to the guest; instead what happens is that we deliver a program interrupt to the guest, with SRR0 reflecting the address of the hrfid instruction and SRR1 containing the MSR value at that point. If PR KVM is not configured in the kernel, then we try to run the host's program interrupt handler with the MMU set to the guest context, which almost certainly causes a host crash. This closes the hole by making kvmppc_set_msr_hv() check for the illegal combination and force the TS field to a safe value (00, meaning non-transactional).

As we saw with the TM Bad Thing type of program interrupt occurring on the hrfid that enters the guest, it is not completely impossible to have a trap occurring in the guest entry/exit code, despite the fact that the code has been written to avoid taking any traps. This adds a check in the kvmppc_handle_exit_hv() function to detect the case when a trap has occurred in the hypervisor-mode code, and instead of treating it just like a trap in guest code, we now print a message and return to userspace with a KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR exit reason. Of the various interrupts that get handled in the assembly code in the guest exit path and that can return directly to the guest, the only one that can occur when MSR.HV=1 and MSR.EE=0 is machine check (other than system call, which we can avoid just by not doing a sc instruction). Therefore this adds code to the machine check path to ensure that if the MCE occurred in hypervisor mode, we exit to the host rather than trying to continue the guest.

In static micro-threading modes, the dynamic micro-threading code is supposed to be disabled, because subcores can't make independent decisions about what micro-threading mode to put the core in - there is only one micro-threading mode for the whole core. The code that implements dynamic micro-threading checks for this, except that the check was missed in one case. This means that it is possible for a subcore in static 2-way micro-threading mode to try to put the core into 4-way micro-threading mode, which usually leads to stuck CPUs, spinlock lockups, and other stalls in the host. The problem was in the can_split_piggybacked_subcores() function, which should always return false if the system is in a static micro-threading mode. This fixes the problem by making can_split_piggybacked_subcores() use subcore_config_ok() for its checks, as subcore_config_ok() includes the necessary check for the static micro-threading modes. Credit to Gautham Shenoy for working out that the reason for the hangs and stalls we were seeing was that we were trying to do dynamic 4-way micro-threading while we were in static 2-way mode.

This reverts commit 9678cdaa ("Use the POWER8 Micro Partition Prefetch Engine in KVM HV on POWER8") because the original commit had multiple, partly self-cancelling bugs, that could cause occasional memory corruption. In fact the logmpp instruction was incorrectly using register r0 as the source of the buffer address and operation code, and depending on what was in r0, it would either do nothing or corrupt the 64k page pointed to by r0. The logmpp instruction encoding and the operation code definitions could be corrected, but then there is the problem that there is no clearly defined way to know when the hardware has finished writing to the buffer. The original commit attempted to work around this by aborting the write-out before starting the prefetch, but this is ineffective in the case where the virtual core is now executing on a different physical core from the one where the write-out was initiated. These problems plus advice from the hardware designers not to use the function (since the measured performance improvement from using the feature was actually mostly negative), mean that reverting the code is the best option.

This fixes a bug which results in stale vcore pointers being left in the per-cpu preempted vcore lists when a VM is destroyed. The result of the stale vcore pointers is usually either a crash or a lockup inside collect_piggybacks() when another VM is run.

In that case we need to wait for the vcpu to finish executing inside the guest, and then remove this vcore from the preempted vcores list. That way, we avoid leaving this vcpu's vcore on the preempted vcores list when the vcpu gets interrupted.

The current dynamic micro-threading code has a race due to which a secondary thread naps when it is supposed to be running a vcpu. As a side effect of this, on a guest exit, the primary thread in kvmppc_wait_for_nap() finds that this secondary thread hasn't cleared its vcore pointer. This results in "CPU X seems to be stuck!" warnings. The race is possible since the primary thread on exiting the guests only waits for all the secondaries to clear its vcore pointer. It subsequently expects the secondary threads to enter nap while it unsplits the core. A secondary thread which hasn't yet entered the nap will loop in kvm_no_guest until its vcore pointer and the do_nap flag are unset. Once the core has been unsplit, a new vcpu thread can grab the core and set the do_nap flag *before* setting the vcore pointers of the secondary. As a result, the secondary thread will now enter nap via kvm_unsplit_nap instead of running the guest vcpu. Fix this by setting the do_nap flag after setting the vcore pointer in the PACA of the secondary in kvmppc_run_core. Also, ensure that a secondary thread doesn't nap in kvm_unsplit_nap when the vcore pointer in its PACA struct is set. Fixes: b4deba5cSigned-off-by: NGautham R.

This builds on the ability to run more than one vcore on a physical core by using the micro-threading (split-core) modes of the POWER8 chip. Previously, only vcores from the same VM could be run together, and (on POWER8) only if they had just one thread per core. With the ability to split the core on guest entry and unsplit it on guest exit, we can run up to 8 vcpu threads from up to 4 different VMs, and we can run multiple vcores with 2 or 4 vcpus per vcore. Dynamic micro-threading is only available if the static configuration of the cores is whole-core mode (unsplit), and only on POWER8. To manage this, we introduce a new kvm_split_mode struct which is shared across all of the subcores in the core, with a pointer in the paca on each thread. In addition we extend the core_info struct to have information on each subcore. When deciding whether to add a vcore to the set already on the core, we now have two possibilities: (a) piggyback the vcore onto an existing subcore, or (b) start a new subcore. Currently, when any vcpu needs to exit the guest and switch to host virtual mode, we interrupt all the threads in all subcores and switch the core back to whole-core mode. It may be possible in future to allow some of the subcores to keep executing in the guest while subcore 0 switches to the host, but that is not implemented in this patch. This adds a module parameter called dynamic_mt_modes which controls which micro-threading (split-core) modes the code will consider, as a bitmap. In other words, if it is 0, no micro-threading mode is considered; if it is 2, only 2-way micro-threading is considered; if it is 4, only 4-way, and if it is 6, both 2-way and 4-way micro-threading mode will be considered. The default is 6. With this, we now have secondary threads which are the primary thread for their subcore and therefore need to do the MMU switch. These threads will need to be started even if they have no vcpu to run, so we use the vcore pointer in the PACA rather than the vcpu pointer to trigger them. It is now possible for thread 0 to find that an exit has been requested before it gets to switch the subcore state to the guest. In that case we haven't added the guest's timebase offset to the timebase, so we need to be careful not to subtract the offset in the guest exit path. In fact we just skip the whole path that switches back to host context, since we haven't switched to the guest context.

When running a virtual core of a guest that is configured with fewer threads per core than the physical cores have, the extra physical threads are currently unused. This makes it possible to use them to run one or more other virtual cores from the same guest when certain conditions are met. This applies on POWER7, and on POWER8 to guests with one thread per virtual core. (It doesn't apply to POWER8 guests with multiple threads per vcore because they require a 1-1 virtual to physical thread mapping in order to be able to use msgsndp and the TIR.) The idea is that we maintain a list of preempted vcores for each physical cpu (i.e. each core, since the host runs single-threaded). Then, when a vcore is about to run, it checks to see if there are any vcores on the list for its physical cpu that could be piggybacked onto this vcore's execution. If so, those additional vcores are put into state VCORE_PIGGYBACK and their runnable VCPU threads are started as well as the original vcore, which is called the master vcore. After the vcores have exited the guest, the extra ones are put back onto the preempted list if any of their VCPUs are still runnable and not idle. This means that vcpu->arch.ptid is no longer necessarily the same as the physical thread that the vcpu runs on. In order to make it easier for code that wants to send an IPI to know which CPU to target, we now store that in a new field in struct vcpu_arch, called thread_cpu.

This fixes a regression introduced in commit 25fedfca, "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Move vcore preemption point up into kvmppc_run_vcpu", which leads to a user-triggerable oops. In the case where we try to run a vcore on a physical core that is not in single-threaded mode, or the vcore has too many threads for the physical core, we iterate the list of runnable vcpus to make each one return an EBUSY error to userspace. Since this involves taking each vcpu off the runnable_threads list for the vcore, we need to use list_for_each_entry_safe rather than list_for_each_entry to traverse the list. Otherwise the kernel will crash with an oops message like this: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x000fff88 Faulting instruction address: 0xd00000001e635dc8 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#2] SMP NR_CPUS=1024 NUMA PowerNV ...
