Instead of calling into kvm_timer_[un]schedule from the main kvm blocking path, test if the VCPU is on the wait queue from the load/put path and perform the background timer setup/cancel in this path. This has the distinct advantage that we no longer race between load/put and schedule/unschedule and programming and canceling of the bg_timer always happens when the timer state is not loaded. Note that we must now remove the checks in kvm_timer_blocking that do not schedule a background timer if one of the timers can fire, because we no longer have a guarantee that kvm_vcpu_check_block() will be called before kvm_timer_blocking.

kvm_timer_vcpu_terminate can only be called in two scenarios: 1. As part of cleanup during a failed VCPU create 2. As part of freeing the whole VM (struct kvm refcount == 0) In the first case, we cannot have programmed any timers or mapped any IRQs, and therefore we do not have to cancel anything or unmap anything. In the second case, the VCPU will have gone through kvm_timer_vcpu_put, which will have canceled the emulated physical timer's hrtimer, and we do not need to that here as well. We also do not care if the irq is recorded as mapped or not in the VGIC data structure, because the whole VM is going away. That leaves us only with having to ensure that we cancel the bg_timer if we were blocking the last time we called kvm_timer_vcpu_put().

The use of a work queue in the hrtimer expire function for the bg_timer is a leftover from the time when we would inject interrupts when the bg_timer expired. Since we are no longer doing that, we can instead call kvm_vcpu_wake_up() directly from the hrtimer function and remove all workqueue functionality from the arch timer code.

When the VCPU is blocked (for example from WFI) we don't inject the physical timer interrupt if it should fire while the CPU is blocked, but instead we just wake up the VCPU and expect kvm_timer_vcpu_load to take care of injecting the interrupt. Unfortunately, kvm_timer_vcpu_load() doesn't actually do that, it only has support to schedule a soft timer if the emulated phys timer is expected to fire in the future. Follow the same pattern as kvm_timer_update_state() and update the irq state after potentially scheduling a soft timer.

kvm_timer_update_state() is called when changing the phys timer configuration registers, either via vcpu reset, as a result of a trap from the guest, or when userspace programs the registers. phys_timer_emulate() is in turn called by kvm_timer_update_state() to either cancel an existing software timer, or program a new software timer, to emulate the behavior of a real phys timer, based on the change in configuration registers. Unfortunately, the interaction between these two functions left a small race; if the conceptual emulated phys timer should actually fire, but the soft timer hasn't executed its callback yet, we cancel the timer in phys_timer_emulate without injecting an irq. This only happens if the check in kvm_timer_update_state is called before the timer should fire, which is relatively unlikely, but possible. The solution is to update the state of the phys timer after calling phys_timer_emulate, which will pick up the pending timer state and update the interrupt value. Note that this leaves the opportunity of raising the interrupt twice, once in the just-programmed soft timer, and once in kvm_timer_update_state. Since this always happens synchronously with the VCPU execution, there is no harm in this, and the guest ever only sees a single timer interrupt.

When introducing support for irqchip in userspace we needed a way to mask the timer signal to prevent the guest continuously exiting due to a screaming timer. We did this by disabling the corresponding percpu interrupt on the host interrupt controller, because we cannot rely on the host system having a GIC, and therefore cannot make any assumptions about having an active state to hide the timer signal. Unfortunately, when introducing this feature, it became entirely possible that a VCPU which belongs to a VM that has a userspace irqchip can disable the vtimer irq on the host on some physical CPU, and then go away without ever enabling the vtimer irq on that physical CPU again. This means that using irqchips in userspace on a system that also supports running VMs with an in-kernel GIC can prevent forward progress from in-kernel GIC VMs. Later on, when we started taking virtual timer interrupts in the arch timer code, we would also leave this timer state active for userspace irqchip VMs, because we leave it up to a VGIC-enabled guest to deactivate the hardware IRQ using the HW bit in the LR. Both issues are solved by only using the enable/disable trick on systems that do not have a host GIC which supports the active state, because all VMs on such systems must use irqchips in userspace. Systems that have a working GIC with support for an active state use the active state to mask the timer signal for both userspace and in-kernel irqchips.

After the recently introduced support for level-triggered mapped interrupt, I accidentally left the VCPU thread busily going back and forward between the guest and the hypervisor whenever the guest was blocking, because I would always incorrectly report that a timer interrupt was pending. This is because the timer->irq.level field is not valid for mapped interrupts, where we offload the level state to the hardware, and as a result this field is always true. Luckily the problem can be relatively easily solved by not checking the cached signal state of either timer in kvm_timer_should_fire() but instead compute the timer state on the fly, which we do already if the cached signal state wasn't high. In fact, the only reason for checking the cached signal state was a tiny optimization which would only be potentially faster when the polling loop detects a pending timer interrupt, which is quite unlikely. Instead of duplicating the logic from kvm_arch_timer_handler(), we enlighten kvm_timer_should_fire() to report something valid when the timer state is loaded onto the hardware. We can then call this from kvm_arch_timer_handler() as well and avoid the call to __timer_snapshot_state() in kvm_arch_timer_get_input_level().

We currently check if the VM has a userspace irqchip in several places along the critical path, and if so, we do some work which is only required for having an irqchip in userspace. This is unfortunate, as we could avoid doing any work entirely, if we didn't have to support irqchip in userspace. Realizing the userspace irqchip on ARM is mostly a developer or hobby feature, and is unlikely to be used in servers or other scenarios where performance is a priority, we can use a refcounted static key to only check the irqchip configuration when we have at least one VM that uses an irqchip in userspace.

The VGIC can now support the life-cycle of mapped level-triggered interrupts, and we no longer have to read back the timer state on every exit from the VM if we had an asserted timer interrupt signal, because the VGIC already knows if we hit the unlikely case where the guest disables the timer without ACKing the virtual timer interrupt. This means we rework a bit of the code to factor out the functionality to snapshot the timer state from vtimer_save_state(), and we can reuse this functionality in the sync path when we have an irqchip in userspace, and also to support our implementation of the get_input_level() function for the timer. This change also means that we can no longer rely on the timer's view of the interrupt line to set the active state, because we no longer maintain this state for mapped interrupts when exiting from the guest. Instead, we only set the active state if the virtual interrupt is active, and otherwise we simply let the timer fire again and raise the virtual interrupt from the ISR.

The timer logic was designed after a strict idea of modeling an interrupt line level in software, meaning that only transitions in the level need to be reported to the VGIC. This works well for the timer, because the arch timer code is in complete control of the device and can track the transitions of the line. However, as we are about to support using the HW bit in the VGIC not just for the timer, but also for VFIO which cannot track transitions of the interrupt line, we have to decide on an interface between the GIC and other subsystems for level triggered mapped interrupts, which both the timer and VFIO can use. VFIO only sees an asserting transition of the physical interrupt line, and tells the VGIC when that happens. That means that part of the interrupt flow is offloaded to the hardware. To use the same interface for VFIO devices and the timer, we therefore have to change the timer (we cannot change VFIO because it doesn't know the details of the device it is assigning to a VM). Luckily, changing the timer is simple, we just need to stop 'caching' the line level, but instead let the VGIC know the state of the timer every time there is a potential change in the line level, and when the line level should be asserted from the timer ISR. The VGIC can ignore extra notifications using its validate mechanism.

When enabling the timer on the first run, we fail to ever restore the state and mark it as loaded. That means, that in the initial entry to the VCPU ioctl, unless we exit to userspace for some reason such as a pending signal, if the guest programs a timer and blocks, we will wait forever, because we never read back the hardware state (the loaded flag is not set), and so we think the timer is disabled, and we never schedule a background soft timer.

The recent timer rework was assuming that once the timer was disabled, we should no longer see any interrupts from the timer. This assumption turns out to not be true, and instead we have to handle the case when the timer ISR runs even after the timer has been disabled. This requires a couple of changes: First, we should never overwrite the cached guest state of the timer control register when the ISR runs, because KVM may have disabled its timers when doing vcpu_put(), even though the guest still had the timer enabled. Second, we shouldn't assume that the timer is actually firing just because we see an interrupt, but we should check the actual state of the timer in the timer control register to understand if the hardware timer is really firing or not. We also add an ISB to vtimer_save_state() to ensure the timer is actually disabled once we enable interrupts, which should clarify the intention of the implementation, and reduce the risk of unwanted interrupts.

We don't need to save and restore the hardware timer state and examine if it generates interrupts on on every entry/exit to the guest. The timer hardware is perfectly capable of telling us when it has expired by signaling interrupts. When taking a vtimer interrupt in the host, we don't want to mess with the timer configuration, we just want to forward the physical interrupt to the guest as a virtual interrupt. We can use the split priority drop and deactivate feature of the GIC to do this, which leaves an EOI'ed interrupt active on the physical distributor, making sure we don't keep taking timer interrupts which would prevent the guest from running. We can then forward the physical interrupt to the VM using the HW bit in the LR of the GIC, like we do already, which lets the guest directly deactivate both the physical and virtual timer simultaneously, allowing the timer hardware to exit the VM and generate a new physical interrupt when the timer output is again asserted later on. We do need to capture this state when migrating VCPUs between physical CPUs, however, which we use the vcpu put/load functions for, which are called through preempt notifiers whenever the thread is scheduled away from the CPU or called directly if we return from the ioctl to userspace. One caveat is that we have to save and restore the timer state in both kvm_timer_vcpu_[put/load] and kvm_timer_[schedule/unschedule], because we can have the following flows: 1. kvm_vcpu_block 2. kvm_timer_schedule 3. schedule 4. kvm_timer_vcpu_put (preempt notifier) 5. schedule (vcpu thread gets scheduled back) 6. kvm_timer_vcpu_load (preempt notifier) 7. kvm_timer_unschedule And a version where we don't actually call schedule: 1. kvm_vcpu_block 2. kvm_timer_schedule 7. kvm_timer_unschedule Since kvm_timer_[schedule/unschedule] may not be followed by put/load, but put/load also may be called independently, we call the timer save/restore functions from both paths. Since they rely on the loaded flag to never save/restore when unnecessary, this doesn't cause any harm, and we ensure that all invokations of either set of functions work as intended. An added benefit beyond not having to read and write the timer sysregs on every entry and exit is that we no longer have to actively write the active state to the physical distributor, because we configured the irq for the vtimer to only get a priority drop when handling the interrupt in the GIC driver (we called irq_set_vcpu_affinity()), and the interrupt stays active after firing on the host.

As we are about to be lazy with saving and restoring the timer registers, we prepare by moving all possible timer configuration logic out of the hyp code. All virtual timer registers can be programmed from EL1 and since the arch timer is always a level triggered interrupt we can safely do this with interrupts disabled in the host kernel on the way to the guest without taking vtimer interrupts in the host kernel (yet). The downside is that the cntvoff register can only be programmed from hyp mode, so we jump into hyp mode and back to program it. This is also safe, because the host kernel doesn't use the virtual timer in the KVM code.

When injecting an IRQ to the VGIC, you now have to present an owner token for that IRQ line to show that you are the owner of that line. IRQ lines driven from userspace or via an irqfd do not have an owner and will simply pass a NULL pointer. Also get rid of the unused kvm_vgic_inject_mapped_irq prototype.

We check if other in-kernel devices have already been connected to the GIC for a particular interrupt line when possible. For the PMU, we can do this whenever setting the PMU interrupt number from userspace. For the timers, we have to wait until we try to enable the timer, because we have a concept of default IRQ numbers that userspace shouldn't have to work around in the initialization phase.

First we define an ABI using the vcpu devices that lets userspace set the interrupt numbers for the various timers on both the 32-bit and 64-bit KVM/ARM implementations. Second, we add the definitions for the groups and attributes introduced by the above ABI. (We add the PMU define on the 32-bit side as well for symmetry and it may get used some day.) Third, we set up the arch-specific vcpu device operation handlers to call into the timer code for anything related to the KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_CTRL group. Fourth, we implement support for getting and setting the timer interrupt numbers using the above defined ABI in the arch timer code. Fifth, we introduce error checking upon enabling the arch timer (which is called when first running a VCPU) to check that all VCPUs are configured to use the same PPI for the timer (as mandated by the architecture) and that the virtual and physical timers are not configured to use the same IRQ number.

We currently initialize the arch timer IRQ numbers from the reset code, presumably because we once intended to model multiple CPU or SoC types from within the kernel and have hard-coded reset values in the reset code. As we are moving towards userspace being in charge of more fine-grained CPU emulation and stitching together the pieces needed to emulate a particular type of CPU, we should no longer have a tight coupling between resetting a VCPU and setting IRQ numbers. Therefore, move the logic to define and use the default IRQ numbers to the timer code and set the IRQ number immediately when creating the VCPU.

The timer work is only scheduled for a VCPU when that VCPU is blocked. This means we only need to wake it up, not kick (IPI) it. While calling kvm_vcpu_kick() would just do the wake up, and not kick, anyway, let's change this to avoid request-less vcpu kicks, as they're generally not a good idea (see "Request-less VCPU Kicks" in Documentation/virtual/kvm/vcpu-requests.rst) Signed-off-by: NAndrew Jones <drjones@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NChristoffer Dall <cdall@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NChristoffer Dall <cdall@linaro.org>

When not using an in-kernel VGIC, but instead emulating an interrupt controller in userspace, we should report the PMU overflow status to that userspace interrupt controller using the KVM_CAP_ARM_USER_IRQ feature.
