This adds an smp_wmb in kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() and an smp_rmb in mmu_notifier_retry() so that mmu_notifier_retry() will give the correct answer when called without kvm->mmu_lock being held. PowerPC Book3S HV KVM wants to use a bitlock per guest page rather than a single global spinlock in order to improve the scalability of updates to the guest MMU hashed page table, and so needs this.

This patch exports the s390 SIE hardware control block to userspace via the mapping of the vcpu file descriptor. In order to do so, a new arch callback named kvm_arch_vcpu_fault is introduced for all architectures. It allows to map architecture specific pages.

This patch introduces a new config option for user controlled kernel virtual machines. It introduces a parameter to KVM_CREATE_VM that allows to set bits that alter the capabilities of the newly created virtual machine. The parameter is passed to kvm_arch_init_vm for all architectures. The only valid modifier bit for now is KVM_VM_S390_UCONTROL. This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges and creates a user controlled virtual machine on s390 architectures.

It is possible that the __set_bit() in mark_page_dirty() is called simultaneously on the same region of memory, which may result in only one bit being set, because some callers do not take mmu_lock before mark_page_dirty(). This problem is hard to produce because when we reach mark_page_dirty() beginning from, e.g., tdp_page_fault(), mmu_lock is being held during __direct_map(): making kvm-unit-tests' dirty log api test write to two pages concurrently was not useful for this reason. So we have confirmed that there can actually be race condition by checking if some callers really reach there without holding mmu_lock using spin_is_locked(): probably they were from kvm_write_guest_page(). To fix this race, this patch changes the bit operation to the atomic version: note that nr_dirty_pages also suffers from the race but we do not need exactly correct numbers for now.

Currently the method of dealing with an IO operation on a bus (PIO/MMIO) is to call the read or write callback for each device registered on the bus until we find a device which handles it. Since the number of devices on a bus can be significant due to ioeventfds and coalesced MMIO zones, this leads to a lot of overhead on each IO operation. Instead of registering devices, we now register ranges which points to a device. Lookup is done using an efficient bsearch instead of a linear search. Performance test was conducted by comparing exit count per second with 200 ioeventfds created on one byte and the guest is trying to access a different byte continuously (triggering usermode exits). Before the patch the guest has achieved 259k exits per second, after the patch the guest does 274k exits per second.

The idea is from Avi: | We could cache the result of a miss in an spte by using a reserved bit, and | checking the page fault error code (or seeing if we get an ept violation or | ept misconfiguration), so if we get repeated mmio on a page, we don't need to | search the slot list/tree. | (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/22/221) When the page fault is caused by mmio, we cache the info in the shadow page table, and also set the reserved bits in the shadow page table, so if the mmio is caused again, we can quickly identify it and emulate it directly Searching mmio gfn in memslots is heavy since we need to walk all memeslots, it can be reduced by this feature, and also avoid walking guest page table for soft mmu.

If the page fault is caused by mmio, the gfn can not be found in memslots, and 'bad_pfn' is returned on gfn_to_hva path, so we can use 'bad_pfn' to identify the mmio page fault.

KVM has an ioctl to define which signal mask should be used while running inside VCPU_RUN. At least for big endian systems, this mask is different on 32-bit and 64-bit systems (though the size is identical). Add a compat wrapper that converts the mask to whatever the kernel accepts, allowing 32-bit kvm user space to set signal masks.

It doesn't make sense to ever see a half-initialized kvm structure on mmu notifier callbacks. Previously, 85722cda changed the ordering to ensure that the mmu_lock was initialized before mmu notifier registration, but there is still a race where the mmu notifier could come in and try accessing other portions of struct kvm before they are intialized. Solve this by moving the mmu notifier registration to occur after the structure is completely initialized.

asm-generic/bitops/le.h is only intended to be included directly from asm-generic/bitops/ext2-non-atomic.h or asm-generic/bitops/minix-le.h which implements generic ext2 or minix bit operations. This stops including asm-generic/bitops/le.h directly and use ext2 non-atomic bit operations instead. It seems odd to use ext2_set_bit() on kvm, but it will replaced with __set_bit_le() after introducing little endian bit operations for all architectures. This indirect step is necessary to maintain bisectability for some architectures which have their own little-endian bit operations.

is_hwpoison_address only checks whether the page table entry is hwpoisoned, regardless the memory page mapped. While __get_user_pages will check both. QEMU will clear the poisoned page table entry (via unmap/map) to make it possible to allocate a new memory page for the virtual address across guest rebooting. But it is also possible that the underlying memory page is kept poisoned even after the corresponding page table entry is cleared, that is, a new memory page can not be allocated. __get_user_pages can catch these situations.
