      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Improve handling of local vs. global TLB invalidations · 1b400ba0
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      When we change or remove a HPT (hashed page table) entry, we can do
      either a global TLB invalidation (tlbie) that works across the whole
      machine, or a local invalidation (tlbiel) that only affects this core.
      Currently we do local invalidations if the VM has only one vcpu or if
      the guest requests it with the H_LOCAL flag, though the guest Linux
      kernel currently doesn't ever use H_LOCAL.  Then, to cope with the
      possibility that vcpus moving around to different physical cores might
      expose stale TLB entries, there is some code in kvmppc_hv_entry to
      flush the whole TLB of entries for this VM if either this vcpu is now
      running on a different physical core from where it last ran, or if this
      physical core last ran a different vcpu.
      
      There are a number of problems on POWER7 with this as it stands:
      
      - The TLB invalidation is done per thread, whereas it only needs to be
        done per core, since the TLB is shared between the threads.
      - With the possibility of the host paging out guest pages, the use of
        H_LOCAL by an SMP guest is dangerous since the guest could possibly
        retain and use a stale TLB entry pointing to a page that had been
        removed from the guest.
      - The TLB invalidations that we do when a vcpu moves from one physical
        core to another are unnecessary in the case of an SMP guest that isn't
        using H_LOCAL.
      - The optimization of using local invalidations rather than global should
        apply to guests with one virtual core, not just one vcpu.
      
      (None of this applies on PPC970, since there we always have to
      invalidate the whole TLB when entering and leaving the guest, and we
      can't support paging out guest memory.)
      
      To fix these problems and simplify the code, we now maintain a simple
      cpumask of which cpus need to flush the TLB on entry to the guest.
      (This is indexed by cpu, though we only ever use the bits for thread
      0 of each core.)  Whenever we do a local TLB invalidation, we set the
      bits for every cpu except the bit for thread 0 of the core that we're
      currently running on.  Whenever we enter a guest, we test and clear the
      bit for our core, and flush the TLB if it was set.
      
      On initial startup of the VM, and when resetting the HPT, we set all the
      bits in the need_tlb_flush cpumask, since any core could potentially have
      stale TLB entries from the previous VM to use the same LPID, or the
      previous contents of the HPT.
      
      Then, we maintain a count of the number of online virtual cores, and use
      that when deciding whether to use a local invalidation rather than the
      number of online vcpus.  The code to make that decision is extracted out
      into a new function, global_invalidates().  For multi-core guests on
      POWER7 (i.e. when we are using mmu notifiers), we now never do local
      invalidations regardless of the H_LOCAL flag.

      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 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.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fixes for late-joining threads · 2f12f034
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      If a thread in a virtual core becomes runnable while other threads
      in the same virtual core are already running in the guest, it is
      possible for the latecomer to join the others on the core without
      first pulling them all out of the guest.  Currently this only happens
      rarely, when a vcpu is first started.  This fixes some bugs and
      omissions in the code in this case.
      
      First, we need to check for VPA updates for the latecomer and make
      a DTL entry for it.  Secondly, if it comes along while the master
      vcpu is doing a VPA update, we don't need to do anything since the
      master will pick it up in kvmppc_run_core.  To handle this correctly
      we introduce a new vcore state, VCORE_STARTING.  Thirdly, there is
      a race because we currently clear the hardware thread's hwthread_req
      before waiting to see it get to nap.  A latecomer thread could have
      its hwthread_req cleared before it gets to test it, and therefore
      never increment the nap_count, leading to messages about wait_for_nap
      timeouts.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make the guest hash table size configurable · 32fad281
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds a new ioctl to enable userspace to control the size of the guest
      hashed page table (HPT) and to clear it out when resetting the guest.
      The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl is a VM ioctl and takes as its parameter
      a pointer to a u32 containing the desired order of the HPT (log base 2
      of the size in bytes), which is updated on successful return to the
      actual order of the HPT which was allocated.
      
      There must be no vcpus running at the time of this ioctl.  To enforce
      this, we now keep a count of the number of vcpus running in
      kvm->arch.vcpus_running.
      
      If the ioctl is called when a HPT has already been allocated, we don't
      reallocate the HPT but just clear it out.  We first clear the
      kvm->arch.rma_setup_done flag, which has two effects: (a) since we hold
      the kvm->lock mutex, it will prevent any vcpus from starting to run until
      we're done, and (b) it means that the first vcpu to run after we're done
      will re-establish the VRMA if necessary.
      
      If userspace doesn't call this ioctl before running the first vcpu, the
      kernel will allocate a default-sized HPT at that point.  We do it then
      rather than when creating the VM, as the code did previously, so that
      userspace has a chance to do the ioctl if it wants.
      
      When allocating the HPT, we can allocate either from the kernel page
      allocator, or from the preallocated pool.  If userspace is asking for
      a different size from the preallocated HPTs, we first try to allocate
      using the kernel page allocator.  Then we try to allocate from the
      preallocated pool, and then if that fails, we try allocating decreasing
      sizes from the kernel page allocator, down to the minimum size allowed
      (256kB).  Note that the kernel page allocator limits allocations to
      1 << CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER pages, which by default corresponds to
      16MB (on 64-bit powerpc, at least).

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Report stolen time to guest through dispatch trace log · 0456ec4f
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds code to measure "stolen" time per virtual core in units of
      timebase ticks, and to report the stolen time to the guest using the
      dispatch trace log (DTL).  The guest can register an area of memory
      for the DTL for a given vcpu.  The DTL is a ring buffer where KVM
      fills in one entry every time it enters the guest for that vcpu.
      
      Stolen time is measured as time when the virtual core is not running,
      either because the vcore is not runnable (e.g. some of its vcpus are
      executing elsewhere in the kernel or in userspace), or when the vcpu
      thread that is running the vcore is preempted.  This includes time
      when all the vcpus are idle (i.e. have executed the H_CEDE hypercall),
      which is OK because the guest accounts stolen time while idle as idle
      time.
      
      Each vcpu keeps a record of how much stolen time has been reported to
      the guest for that vcpu so far.  When we are about to enter the guest,
      we create a new DTL entry (if the guest vcpu has a DTL) and report the
      difference between total stolen time for the vcore and stolen time
      reported so far for the vcpu as the "enqueue to dispatch" time in the
      DTL entry.

      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make virtual processor area registration more robust · 2e25aa5f
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      The PAPR API allows three sorts of per-virtual-processor areas to be
      registered (VPA, SLB shadow buffer, and dispatch trace log), and
      furthermore, these can be registered and unregistered for another
      virtual CPU.  Currently we just update the vcpu fields pointing to
      these areas at the time of registration or unregistration.  If this
      is done on another vcpu, there is the possibility that the target vcpu
      is using those fields at the time and could end up using a bogus
      pointer and corrupting memory.
      
      This fixes the race by making the target cpu itself do the update, so
      we can be sure that the update happens at a time when the fields
      aren't being used.  Each area now has a struct kvmppc_vpa which is
      used to manage these updates.  There is also a spinlock which protects
      access to all of the kvmppc_vpa structs, other than to the pinned_addr
      fields.  (We could have just taken the spinlock when using the vpa,
      slb_shadow or dtl fields, but that would mean taking the spinlock on
      every guest entry and exit.)
      
      This also changes 'struct dtl' (which was undefined) to 'struct dtl_entry',
      which is what the rest of the kernel uses.

      in either view, it will be initially set to zero in the HPTE (or HPTEs),
      until set to 1 by hardware.  When an HPTE is removed for any reason,
      the R and C bits from the HPTE are ORed into both views.  We have to
      be careful to read the R and C bits from the HPTE after invalidating
      it, but before unlocking it, in case of any late updates by the hardware.

      KVM: PPC: Implement MMU notifiers for Book3S HV guests · 342d3db7
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds the infrastructure to enable us to page out pages underneath
      a Book3S HV guest, on processors that support virtualized partition
      memory, that is, POWER7.  Instead of pinning all the guest's pages,
      we now look in the host userspace Linux page tables to find the
      mapping for a given guest page.  Then, if the userspace Linux PTE
      gets invalidated, kvm_unmap_hva() gets called for that address, and
      we replace all the guest HPTEs that refer to that page with absent
      HPTEs, i.e. ones with the valid bit clear and the HPTE_V_ABSENT bit
      set, which will cause an HDSI when the guest tries to access them.
      Finally, the page fault handler is extended to reinstantiate the
      guest HPTE when the guest tries to access a page which has been paged
      out.
      
      Since we can't intercept the guest DSI and ISI interrupts on PPC970,
      we still have to pin all the guest pages on PPC970.  We have a new flag,
      kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers, that indicates whether we can page
      guest pages out.  If it is not set, the MMU notifier callbacks do
      nothing and everything operates as before.

      KVM: PPC: Implement MMIO emulation support for Book3S HV guests · 697d3899
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This provides the low-level support for MMIO emulation in Book3S HV
      guests.  When the guest tries to map a page which is not covered by
      any memslot, that page is taken to be an MMIO emulation page.  Instead
      of inserting a valid HPTE, we insert an HPTE that has the valid bit
      clear but another hypervisor software-use bit set, which we call
      HPTE_V_ABSENT, to indicate that this is an absent page.  An
      absent page is treated much like a valid page as far as guest hcalls
      (H_ENTER, H_REMOVE, H_READ etc.) are concerned, except of course that
      an absent HPTE doesn't need to be invalidated with tlbie since it
      was never valid as far as the hardware is concerned.
      
      When the guest accesses a page for which there is an absent HPTE, it
      will take a hypervisor data storage interrupt (HDSI) since we now set
      the VPM1 bit in the LPCR.  Our HDSI handler for HPTE-not-present faults
      looks up the hash table and if it finds an absent HPTE mapping the
      requested virtual address, will switch to kernel mode and handle the
      fault in kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault(), which at present just calls
      kvmppc_hv_emulate_mmio() to set up the MMIO emulation.
      
      This is based on an earlier patch by Benjamin Herrenschmidt, but since
      heavily reworked.

      KVM: PPC: Maintain a doubly-linked list of guest HPTEs for each gfn · 06ce2c63
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This expands the reverse mapping array to contain two links for each
      HPTE which are used to link together HPTEs that correspond to the
      same guest logical page.  Each circular list of HPTEs is pointed to
      by the rmap array entry for the guest logical page, pointed to by
      the relevant memslot.  Links are 32-bit HPT entry indexes rather than
      full 64-bit pointers, to save space.  We use 3 of the remaining 32
      bits in the rmap array entries as a lock bit, a referenced bit and
      a present bit (the present bit is needed since HPTE index 0 is valid).
      The bit lock for the rmap chain nests inside the HPTE lock bit.

      KVM: PPC: Allow I/O mappings in memory slots · 9d0ef5ea
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This provides for the case where userspace maps an I/O device into the
      address range of a memory slot using a VM_PFNMAP mapping.  In that
      case, we work out the pfn from vma->vm_pgoff, and record the cache
      enable bits from vma->vm_page_prot in two low-order bits in the
      slot_phys array entries.  Then, in kvmppc_h_enter() we check that the
      cache bits in the HPTE that the guest wants to insert match the cache
      bits in the slot_phys array entry.  However, we do allow the guest to
      create what it thinks is a non-cacheable or write-through mapping to
      memory that is actually cacheable, so that we can use normal system
      memory as part of an emulated device later on.  In that case the actual
      HPTE we insert is a cacheable HPTE.

      KVM: PPC: Only get pages when actually needed, not in prepare_memory_region() · c77162de
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This removes the code from kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region() that
      looked up the VMA for the region being added and called hva_to_page
      to get the pfns for the memory.  We have no guarantee that there will
      be anything mapped there at the time of the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
      ioctl call; userspace can do that ioctl and then map memory into the
      region later.
      
      Instead we defer looking up the pfn for each memory page until it is
      needed, which generally means when the guest does an H_ENTER hcall on
      the page.  Since we can't call get_user_pages in real mode, if we don't
      already have the pfn for the page, kvmppc_h_enter() will return
      H_TOO_HARD and we then call kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter() once we get back
      to kernel context.  That calls kvmppc_get_guest_page() to get the pfn
      for the page, and then calls back to kvmppc_h_enter() to redo the HPTE
      insertion.
      
      When the first vcpu starts executing, we need to have the RMO or VRMA
      region mapped so that the guest's real mode accesses will work.  Thus
      we now have a check in kvmppc_vcpu_run() to see if the RMO/VRMA is set
      up and if not, call kvmppc_hv_setup_rma().  It checks if the memslot
      starting at guest physical 0 now has RMO memory mapped there; if so it
      sets it up for the guest, otherwise on POWER7 it sets up the VRMA.
      The function that does that, kvmppc_map_vrma, is now a bit simpler,
      as it calls kvmppc_virtmode_h_enter instead of creating the HPTE itself.
      
      Since we are now potentially updating entries in the slot_phys[]
      arrays from multiple vcpu threads, we now have a spinlock protecting
      those updates to ensure that we don't lose track of any references
      to pages.

      KVM: PPC: Keep page physical addresses in per-slot arrays · b2b2f165
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This allocates an array for each memory slot that is added to store
      the physical addresses of the pages in the slot.  This array is

      This allows us to remove the ram_pginfo field from the kvm_arch

      We use the low-order bits of the array entries to store a flag
      indicating that we have done get_page on the corresponding page,
      and therefore need to call put_page when we are finished with the

      KVM: PPC: Keep a record of HV guest view of hashed page table entries · 8936dda4
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds an array that parallels the guest hashed page table (HPT),
      that is, it has one entry per HPTE, used to store the guest's view
      of the second doubleword of the corresponding HPTE.  The first
      doubleword in the HPTE is the same as the guest's idea of it, so we
      don't need to store a copy, but the second doubleword in the HPTE has
      the real page number rather than the guest's logical page number.
      This allows us to remove the back_translate() and reverse_xlate()
      functions.
      
      This "reverse mapping" array is vmalloc'd, meaning that to access it
      in real mode we have to walk the kernel's page tables explicitly.
      That is done by the new real_vmalloc_addr() function.  (In fact this
      returns an address in the linear mapping, so the result is usable
      both in real mode and in virtual mode.)
      
      There are also some minor cleanups here: moving the definitions of
      HPT_ORDER etc. to a header file and defining HPT_NPTE for HPT_NPTEG << 3.

      KVM: PPC: Paravirtualize SPRG4-7, ESR, PIR, MASn · b5904972
      Scott Wood 提交于
      This allows additional registers to be accessed by the guest
      in PR-mode KVM without trapping.
      
      SPRG4-7 are readable from userspace.  On booke, KVM will sync
      these registers when it enters the guest, so that accesses from
      guest userspace will work.  The guest kernel, OTOH, must consistently
      use either the real registers or the shared area between exits.  This
      also applies to the already-paravirted SPRG3.
      
      On non-booke, it's not clear to what extent SPRG4-7 are supported
      (they're not architected for book3s, but exist on at least some classic
      chips).  They are copied in the get/set regs ioctls, but I do not see any
      non-booke emulation.  I also do not see any syncing with real registers
      (in PR-mode) including the user-readable SPRG3.  This patch should not
      make that situation any worse.

      KVM: PPC: Implement H_CEDE hcall for book3s_hv in real-mode code · 19ccb76a
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      With a KVM guest operating in SMT4 mode (i.e. 4 hardware threads per
      core), whenever a CPU goes idle, we have to pull all the other
      hardware threads in the core out of the guest, because the H_CEDE
      hcall is handled in the kernel.  This is inefficient.
      
      This adds code to book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S to handle the H_CEDE hcall
      in real mode.  When a guest vcpu does an H_CEDE hcall, we now only
      exit to the kernel if all the other vcpus in the same core are also
      idle.  Otherwise we mark this vcpu as napping, save state that could
      be lost in nap mode (mainly GPRs and FPRs), and execute the nap
      instruction.  When the thread wakes up, because of a decrementer or
      external interrupt, we come back in at kvm_start_guest (from the
      system reset interrupt vector), find the `napping' flag set in the
      paca, and go to the resume path.
      
      This has some other ramifications.  First, when starting a core, we
      now start all the threads, both those that are immediately runnable and
      those that are idle.  This is so that we don't have to pull all the
      threads out of the guest when an idle thread gets a decrementer interrupt
      and wants to start running.  In fact the idle threads will all start
      with the H_CEDE hcall returning; being idle they will just do another
      H_CEDE immediately and go to nap mode.
      
      This required some changes to kvmppc_run_core() and kvmppc_run_vcpu().
      These functions have been restructured to make them simpler and clearer.
      We introduce a level of indirection in the wait queue that gets woken
      when external and decrementer interrupts get generated for a vcpu, so
      that we can have the 4 vcpus in a vcore using the same wait queue.
      We need this because the 4 vcpus are being handled by one thread.
      
      Secondly, when we need to exit from the guest to the kernel, we now
      have to generate an IPI for any napping threads, because an HDEC
      interrupt doesn't wake up a napping thread.
      
      Thirdly, we now need to be able to handle virtual external interrupts
      and decrementer interrupts becoming pending while a thread is napping,
      and deliver those interrupts to the guest when the thread wakes.
      This is done in kvmppc_cede_reentry, just before fast_guest_return.
      
      Finally, since we are not using the generic kvm_vcpu_block for book3s_hv,
      and hence not calling kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable, we can remove the #ifdef
      from kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable.
