      KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Emulate PURR, SPURR and DSCR registers · b0a94d4e
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds basic emulation of the PURR and SPURR registers.  We assume
      we are emulating a single-threaded core, so these advance at the same
      rate as the timebase.  A Linux kernel running on a POWER7 expects to
      be able to access these registers and is not prepared to handle a
      program interrupt on accessing them.
      
      This also adds a very minimal emulation of the DSCR (data stream
      control register).  Writes are ignored and reads return zero.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't give the guest RW access to RO pages · 1cc8ed0b
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Currently, if the guest does an H_PROTECT hcall requesting that the
      permissions on a HPT entry be changed to allow writing, we make the
      requested change even if the page is marked read-only in the host
      Linux page tables.  This is a problem since it would for instance
      allow a guest to modify a page that KSM has decided can be shared
      between multiple guests.
      
      To fix this, if the new permissions for the page allow writing, we need
      to look up the memslot for the page, work out the host virtual address,
      and look up the Linux page tables to get the PTE for the page.  If that
      PTE is read-only, we reduce the HPTE permissions to read-only.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Report correct HPT entry index when reading HPT · 05dd85f7
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This fixes a bug in the code which allows userspace to read out the
      contents of the guest's hashed page table (HPT).  On the second and
      subsequent passes through the HPT, when we are reporting only those
      entries that have changed, we were incorrectly initializing the index
      field of the header with the index of the first entry we skipped
      rather than the first changed entry.  This fixes it.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Reset reverse-map chains when resetting the HPT · a64fd707
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      With HV-style KVM, we maintain reverse-mapping lists that enable us to
      find all the HPT (hashed page table) entries that reference each guest
      physical page, with the heads of the lists in the memslot->arch.rmap
      arrays.  When we reset the HPT (i.e. when we reboot the VM), we clear
      out all the HPT entries but we were not clearing out the reverse
      mapping lists.  The result is that as we create new HPT entries, the
      lists get corrupted, which can easily lead to loops, resulting in the
      host kernel hanging when it tries to traverse those lists.
      
      This fixes the problem by zeroing out all the reverse mapping lists
      when we zero out the HPT.  This incidentally means that we are also
      zeroing our record of the referenced and changed bits (not the bits
      in the Linux PTEs, used by the Linux MM subsystem, but the bits used
      by the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl, and those used by kvm_age_hva() and
      kvm_test_age_hva()).

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a method for userspace to read and write the HPT · a2932923
      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: PPC: Book3S HV: Add a mechanism for recording modified HPTEs · 44e5f6be
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This uses a bit in our record of the guest view of the HPTE to record
      when the HPTE gets modified.  We use a reserved bit for this, and ensure
      that this bit is always cleared in HPTE values returned to the guest.
      
      The recording of modified HPTEs is only done if other code indicates
      its interest by setting kvm->arch.hpte_mod_interest to a non-zero value.
      The reason for this is that when later commits add facilities for
      userspace to read the HPT, the first pass of reading the HPT will be
      quicker if there are no (or very few) HPTEs marked as modified,
      rather than having most HPTEs marked as modified.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix bug causing loss of page dirty state · 4879f241
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This fixes a bug where adding a new guest HPT entry via the H_ENTER
      hcall would lose the "changed" bit in the reverse map information
      for the guest physical page being mapped.  The result was that the
      KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG could return a zero bit for the page even though
      the page had been modified by the guest.
      
      This fixes it by only modifying the index and present bits in the
      reverse map entry, thus preserving the reference and change bits.
      We were also unnecessarily setting the reference bit, and this
      fixes that too.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Restructure HPT entry creation code · 7ed661bf
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This restructures the code that creates HPT (hashed page table)
      entries so that it can be called in situations where we don't have a
      struct vcpu pointer, only a struct kvm pointer.  It also fixes a bug
      where kvmppc_map_vrma() would corrupt the guest R4 value.
      
      Most of the work of kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter is now done by a new
      function, kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter, which itself calls another new
      function, kvmppc_do_h_enter, which contains most of the old
      kvmppc_h_enter.  The new kvmppc_do_h_enter takes explicit arguments
      for the place to return the HPTE index, the Linux page tables to use,
      and whether it is being called in real mode, thus removing the need
      for it to have the vcpu as an argument.
      
      Currently kvmppc_map_vrma creates the VRMA (virtual real mode area)
      HPTEs by calling kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter, which is designed primarily
      to handle H_ENTER hcalls from the guest that need to pin a page of
      memory.  Since H_ENTER returns the index of the created HPTE in R4,
      kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter updates the guest R4, corrupting the guest R4
      in the case when it gets called from kvmppc_map_vrma on the first
      VCPU_RUN ioctl.  With this, kvmppc_map_vrma instead calls
      kvmppc_virtmode_do_h_enter with the address of a dummy word as the
      place to store the HPTE index, thus avoiding corrupting the guest R4.

      KVM: x86: Emulate IA32_TSC_ADJUST MSR · ba904635
      Will Auld 提交于
      CPUID.7.0.EBX[1]=1 indicates IA32_TSC_ADJUST MSR 0x3b is supported
      
      Basic design is to emulate the MSR by allowing reads and writes to a guest
      vcpu specific location to store the value of the emulated MSR while adding
      the value to the vmcs tsc_offset. In this way the IA32_TSC_ADJUST value will
      be included in all reads to the TSC MSR whether through rdmsr or rdtsc. This
      is of course as long as the "use TSC counter offsetting" VM-execution control
      is enabled as well as the IA32_TSC_ADJUST control.
      
      However, because hardware will only return the TSC + IA32_TSC_ADJUST +
      vmsc tsc_offset for a guest process when it does and rdtsc (with the correct
      settings) the value of our virtualized IA32_TSC_ADJUST must be stored in one
      of these three locations. The argument against storing it in the actual MSR
      is performance. This is likely to be seldom used while the save/restore is
      required on every transition. IA32_TSC_ADJUST was created as a way to solve
      some issues with writing TSC itself so that is not an option either.
      
      The remaining option, defined above as our solution has the problem of
      returning incorrect vmcs tsc_offset values (unless we intercept and fix, not
      done here) as mentioned above. However, more problematic is that storing the
      data in vmcs tsc_offset will have a different semantic effect on the system
      than does using the actual MSR. This is illustrated in the following example:
      
      The hypervisor set the IA32_TSC_ADJUST, then the guest sets it and a guest
      process performs a rdtsc. In this case the guest process will get
      TSC + IA32_TSC_ADJUST_hyperviser + vmsc tsc_offset including
      IA32_TSC_ADJUST_guest. While the total system semantics changed the semantics
      as seen by the guest do not and hence this will not cause a problem.

      In order to track who initiated the call (host or guest) to modify an msr

      individual parameters.
      
      The initial use for this capability is for updating the IA32_TSC_ADJUST msr

      interface also allows for any existing buffer to be unregistered by
      specifying a zero address.  In this case the length check is not

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix accounting of stolen time · c7b67670
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Currently the code that accounts stolen time tends to overestimate the
      stolen time, and will sometimes report more stolen time in a DTL
      (dispatch trace log) entry than has elapsed since the last DTL entry.
      This can cause guests to underflow the user or system time measured
      for some tasks, leading to ridiculous CPU percentages and total runtimes
      being reported by top and other utilities.
      
      In addition, the current code was designed for the previous policy where
      a vcore would only run when all the vcpus in it were runnable, and so
      only counted stolen time on a per-vcore basis.  Now that a vcore can
      run while some of the vcpus in it are doing other things in the kernel
      (e.g. handling a page fault), we need to count the time when a vcpu task
      is preempted while it is not running as part of a vcore as stolen also.
      
      To do this, we bring back the BUSY_IN_HOST vcpu state and extend the
      vcpu_load/put functions to count preemption time while the vcpu is
      in that state.  Handling the transitions between the RUNNING and
      BUSY_IN_HOST states requires checking and updating two variables
      (accumulated time stolen and time last preempted), so we add a new
      spinlock, vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock.  This protects both the per-vcpu
      stolen/preempt-time variables, and the per-vcore variables while this
      vcpu is running the vcore.
      
      Finally, we now don't count time spent in userspace as stolen time.
      The task could be executing in userspace on behalf of the vcpu, or
      it could be preempted, or the vcpu could be genuinely stopped.  Since
      we have no way of dividing up the time between these cases, we don't
      count any of it as stolen.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Run virtual core whenever any vcpus in it can run · 8455d79e
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Currently the Book3S HV code implements a policy on multi-threaded
      processors (i.e. POWER7) that requires all of the active vcpus in a
      virtual core to be ready to run before we run the virtual core.
      However, that causes problems on reset, because reset stops all vcpus
      except vcpu 0, and can also reduce throughput since all four threads
      in a virtual core have to wait whenever any one of them hits a
      hypervisor page fault.
      
      This relaxes the policy, allowing the virtual core to run as soon as
      any vcpu in it is runnable.  With this, the KVMPPC_VCPU_STOPPED state
      and the KVMPPC_VCPU_BUSY_IN_HOST state have been combined into a single
      KVMPPC_VCPU_NOTREADY state, since we no longer need to distinguish
      between them.
