POWER supports irqfds but forgot to advertise them. Some userspace does
not check for the capability, but others check it---thus they work on
x86 and s390 but not POWER.
To avoid that other architectures in the future make the same mistake, let
common code handle KVM_CAP_IRQFD the same way as KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

Modifying a non-existent slot is not allowed. Also check that the

the mslots array.
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Before commit 0e60b0799f (kvm: change memslot sorting rule from size
to GFN, 2014-12-01), the memslots' sorting key was npages, meaning
that a valid memslot couldn't have its sorting key equal to zero.
On the other hand, a valid memslot can have base_gfn == 0, and invalid
memslots are identified by base_gfn == npages == 0.
Because of this, commit 0e60b0799f broke the invariant that invalid
memslots are at the end of the mslots array. When a memslot with
base_gfn == 0 was created, any invalid memslot before it were left
in place.
This can be fixed by changing the insertion to use a ">=" comparison
instead of "<=", but some care is needed to avoid breaking the case
of deleting a memslot; see the comment in update_memslots.
Thanks to Tiejun Chen for posting an initial patch for this bug.

We currently track the pid of the task that runs the VCPU in vcpu_load.
If a yield to that VCPU is triggered while the PID of the wrong thread
is active, the wrong thread might receive a yield, but this will most
likely not help the executing thread at all. Instead, if we only track
the pid on the KVM_RUN ioctl, there are two possibilities:
1) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is holding a mutex that
the VCPU thread is waiting for. In this case, the VCPU thread is not
runnable, but we also do not do a wrong yield.
2) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is sleeping, or doing
something that does not block the VCPU thread. In this case, the
VCPU thread can receive the directed yield correctly.

kvm_enter_guest() has to be called with preemption disabled and will
set PF_VCPU. Current code takes PF_VCPU as a hint that the VCPU thread
is running and therefore needs no yield.
However, the check on PF_VCPU is wrong on s390, where preemption has
to stay enabled in order to correctly process page faults. Thus,
s390 reenables preemption and starts to execute the guest. The thread
might be scheduled out between kvm_enter_guest() and kvm_exit_guest(),
resulting in PF_VCPU being set but not being run. When this happens,
the opportunity for directed yield is missed.
However, this check is done already in kvm_vcpu_on_spin before calling
kvm_vcpu_yield_loop:
if (!ACCESS_ONCE(vcpu->preempted))
continue;
so the check on PF_VCPU is superfluous in general, and this patch
removes it.

Current linear search doesn't scale well when
large amount of memslots is used and looked up slot

Taking in account that memslots don't overlap, it's
possible to switch sorting order of memslots array from
'npages' to 'base_gfn' and use binary search for
memslot lookup by GFN.
As result of switching to binary search lookup times
are reduced with large amount of memslots.

This reverts commit 85c8555ff0 ("KVM: check for !is_zero_pfn() in
kvm_is_mmio_pfn()") and renames the function to kvm_is_reserved_pfn.
The problem being addressed by the patch above was that some ARM code
based the memory mapping attributes of a pfn on the return value of
kvm_is_mmio_pfn(), whose name indeed suggests that such pfns should
be mapped as device memory.
However, kvm_is_mmio_pfn() doesn't do quite what it says on the tin,
and the existing non-ARM users were already using it in a way which
suggests that its name should probably have been 'kvm_is_reserved_pfn'
from the beginning, e.g., whether or not to call get_page/put_page on
it etc. This means that returning false for the zero page is a mistake
and the patch above should be reverted.

Apart from the usual cleanups, here is the summary of new features:
- s390 moves closer towards host large page support
- PowerPC has improved support for debugging (both inside the guest and
via gdbstub) and support for e6500 processors
- ARM/ARM64 support read-only memory (which is necessary to put firmware
in emulated NOR flash)
- x86 has the usual emulator fixes and nested virtualization improvements
(including improved Windows support on Intel and Jailhouse hypervisor
support on AMD), adaptive PLE which helps overcommitting of huge guests.
Also included are some patches that make KVM more friendly to memory
hot-unplug, and fixes for rare caching bugs.
Two patches have trivial mm/ parts that were acked by Rik and Andrew.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Fixes and features for 3.18.
Apart from the usual cleanups, here is the summary of new features:
- s390 moves closer towards host large page support
- PowerPC has improved support for debugging (both inside the guest
and via gdbstub) and support for e6500 processors
- ARM/ARM64 support read-only memory (which is necessary to put
firmware in emulated NOR flash)
- x86 has the usual emulator fixes and nested virtualization
improvements (including improved Windows support on Intel and
Jailhouse hypervisor support on AMD), adaptive PLE which helps
overcommitting of huge guests. Also included are some patches that
make KVM more friendly to memory hot-unplug, and fixes for rare
caching bugs.
Two patches have trivial mm/ parts that were acked by Rik and Andrew.
Note: I will soon switch to a subkey for signing purposes"

1. We were calling clear_flush_young_notify in unmap_one, but we are
within an mmu notifier invalidate range scope. The spte exists no more
(due to range_start) and the accessed bit info has already been
propagated (due to kvm_pfn_set_accessed). Simply call
clear_flush_young.
2. We clear_flush_young on a primary MMU PMD, but this may be mapped
as a collection of PTEs by the secondary MMU (e.g. during log-dirty).
This required expanding the interface of the clear_flush_young mmu
notifier, so a lot of code has been trivially touched.
3. In the absence of shadow_accessed_mask (e.g. EPT A bit), we emulate
the access bit by blowing the spte. This requires proper synchronizing
with MMU notifier consumers, like every other removal of spte's does.

vcpu ioctls can hang the calling thread if issued while a vcpu is running.
However, invalid ioctls can happen when userspace tries to probe the kind
of file descriptors (e.g. isatty() calls ioctl(TCGETS)); in that case,
we know the ioctl is going to be rejected as invalid anyway and we can
fail before trying to take the vcpu mutex.
This patch does not change functionality, it just makes invalid ioctls
fail faster.

When KVM handles a tdp fault it uses FOLL_NOWAIT. If the guest memory
has been swapped out or is behind a filemap, this will trigger async
readahead and return immediately. The rationale is that KVM will kick
back the guest with an "async page fault" and allow for some other
guest process to take over.
If async PFs are enabled the fault is retried asap from an async
workqueue. If not, it's retried immediately in the same code path. In
either case the retry will not relinquish the mmap semaphore and will
block on the IO. This is a bad thing, as other mmap semaphore users
now stall as a function of swap or filemap latency.
This patch ensures both the regular and async PF path re-enter the
fault allowing for the mmap semaphore to be relinquished in the case
of IO wait.

/me got confused between the kernel and QEMU. In the kernel, you can
only have one module_init function, and it will prevent unloading the
module unless you also have the corresponding module_exit function.
So, commit 80ce163972 (KVM: VFIO: register kvm_device_ops dynamically,
2014-09-02) broke unloading of the kvm module, by adding a module_init
function and no module_exit.

vcpu exits and memslot mutations can run concurrently as long as the
vcpu does not aquire the slots mutex. Thus it is theoretically possible
for memslots to change underneath a vcpu that is handling an exit.
If we increment the memslot generation number again after
synchronize_srcu_expedited(), vcpus can safely cache memslot generation
without maintaining a single rcu_dereference through an entire vm exit.
And much of the x86/kvm code does not maintain a single rcu_dereference
of the current memslots during each exit.
We can prevent the following case:
vcpu (CPU 0) | thread (CPU 1)
--------------------------------------------+--------------------------
1 vm exit |
2 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) |
3 decide to cache something based on |
old memslots |
4 | change memslots
| (increments generation)
5 | synchronize_srcu(&kvm->srcu);
6 retrieve generation # from new memslots |
7 tag cache with new memslot generation |
8 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) |
... |
<action based on cache occurs even |
though the caching decision was based |
on the old memslots> |
... |
<action *continues* to occur until next |
memslot generation change, which may |
be never> |
|
By incrementing the generation after synchronizing with kvm->srcu readers,
we ensure that the generation retrieved in (6) will become invalid soon
after (8).
Keeping the existing increment is not strictly necessary, but we
do keep it and just move it for consistency from update_memslots to
install_new_memslots. It invalidates old cached MMIOs immediately,
instead of having to wait for the end of synchronize_srcu_expedited,
which makes the code more clearly correct in case CPU 1 is preempted
right after synchronize_srcu() returns.
To avoid halving the generation space in SPTEs, always presume that the
low bit of the generation is zero when reconstructing a generation number
out of an SPTE. This effectively disables MMIO caching in SPTEs during
the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited. Using the low bit this way is
somewhat like a seqcount---where the protected thing is a cache, and
instead of retrying we can simply punt if we observe the low bit to be 1.

The idea between capabilities and the KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl is that
userspace can, at run-time, determine if a feature is supported or not.
This allows KVM to being supporting a new feature with a new kernel
version without any need to update user space. Unfortunately, since the
definition of KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM was guarded by #ifdef
__KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM, such discovery still required a user space
update.
Therefore, unconditionally export KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM and change the
in-kernel conditional to rely on __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM.

When starting lots of dataplane devices the bootup takes very long on
Christian's s390 with irqfd patches. With larger setups he is even
able to trigger some timeouts in some components. Turns out that the
KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING ioctl takes very long (strace claims up to 0.1 sec)
when having multiple CPUs. This is caused by the synchronize_rcu and
the HZ=100 of s390. By changing the code to use a private srcu we can
speed things up. This patch reduces the boot time till mounting root
from 8 to 2 seconds on my s390 guest with 100 disks.
Uses of hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_add_head_rcu, hlist_del_init_rcu
are fine because they do not have lockdep checks (hlist_for_each_entry_rcu
uses rcu_dereference_raw rather than rcu_dereference, and write-sides
do not do rcu lockdep at all).
Note that we're hardly relying on the "sleepable" part of srcu. We just
want SRCU's faster detection of grace periods.
Testing was done by Andrew Theurer using netperf tests STREAM, MAERTS
and RR. The difference between results "before" and "after" the patch
has mean -0.2% and standard deviation 0.6%. Using a paired t-test on the
data points says that there is a 2.5% probability that the patch is the
cause of the performance difference (rather than a random fluctuation).
(Restricting the t-test to RR, which is the most likely to be affected,
changes the numbers to respectively -0.3% mean, 0.7% stdev, and 8%
probability that the numbers actually say something about the patch.
The probability increases mostly because there are fewer data points).

-------------------------
Linux does not use the ACC and F bits of the storage key. Newer Linux
versions also do not use the storage keys for dirty and reference
tracking. We can optimize the guest handling for those guests for faults
as well as page-in and page-out by simply not caring about the guest
visible storage key. We trap guest storage key instruction to enable
those keys only on demand.
Migration bitmap
Until now s390 never provided a proper dirty bitmap. Let's provide a
proper migration bitmap for s390. We also change the user dirty tracking
to a fault based mechanism. This makes the host completely independent
from the storage keys. Long term this will allow us to back guest memory
with large pages.
per-VM device attributes
------------------------
To avoid the introduction of new ioctls, let's provide the
attribute semanantic also on the VM-"device".
Userspace controlled CMMA
-------------------------
The CMMA assist is changed from "always on" to "on if requested" via
per-VM device attributes. In addition a callback to reset all usage
states is provided.
Proper guest DAT handling for intercepts
----------------------------------------
While instructions handled by SIE take care of all addressing aspects,
KVM/s390 currently does not care about guest address translation of
intercepts. This worked out fine, because
- the s390 Linux kernel has a 1:1 mapping between kernel virtual<->real
for all pages up to memory size
- intercepts happen only for a small amount of cases
- all of these intercepts happen to be in the kernel text for current
distros
Of course we need to be better for other intercepts, kernel modules etc.
We provide the infrastructure and rework all in-kernel intercepts to work
on logical addresses (paging etc) instead of real ones. The code has
been running internally for several months now, so it is time for going
public.
GDB support
-----------
We provide breakpoints, single stepping and watchpoints.
Fixes/Cleanups
--------------
- Improve program check delivery
- Factor out the handling of transactional memory on program checks
- Use the existing define __LC_PGM_TDB
- Several cleanups in the lowcore structure
- Documentation
NOTES
-----
- All patches touching base s390 are either ACKed or written by the s390
maintainers
- One base KVM patch "KVM: add kvm_is_error_gpa() helper"
- One patch introduces the notion of VM device attributes

Lazy storage key handling
-------------------------
Linux does not use the ACC and F bits of the storage key. Newer Linux
versions also do not use the storage keys for dirty and reference
tracking. We can optimize the guest handling for those guests for faults
as well as page-in and page-out by simply not caring about the guest
visible storage key. We trap guest storage key instruction to enable
those keys only on demand.
Migration bitmap
Until now s390 never provided a proper dirty bitmap. Let's provide a
proper migration bitmap for s390. We also change the user dirty tracking
to a fault based mechanism. This makes the host completely independent
from the storage keys. Long term this will allow us to back guest memory
with large pages.
per-VM device attributes
------------------------
To avoid the introduction of new ioctls, let's provide the
attribute semanantic also on the VM-"device".
Userspace controlled CMMA
-------------------------
The CMMA assist is changed from "always on" to "on if requested" via
per-VM device attributes. In addition a callback to reset all usage
states is provided.
Proper guest DAT handling for intercepts
----------------------------------------
While instructions handled by SIE take care of all addressing aspects,
KVM/s390 currently does not care about guest address translation of
intercepts. This worked out fine, because
- the s390 Linux kernel has a 1:1 mapping between kernel virtual<->real
for all pages up to memory size
- intercepts happen only for a small amount of cases
- all of these intercepts happen to be in the kernel text for current
distros
Of course we need to be better for other intercepts, kernel modules etc.
We provide the infrastructure and rework all in-kernel intercepts to work
on logical addresses (paging etc) instead of real ones. The code has
been running internally for several months now, so it is time for going
public.
GDB support
-----------
We provide breakpoints, single stepping and watchpoints.
Fixes/Cleanups
--------------
- Improve program check delivery
- Factor out the handling of transactional memory on program checks
- Use the existing define __LC_PGM_TDB
- Several cleanups in the lowcore structure
- Documentation
NOTES
-----
- All patches touching base s390 are either ACKed or written by the s390

With KVM, MMIO is much slower than PIO, due to the need to
do page walk and emulation. But with EPT, it does not have to be: we
know the address from the VMCS so if the address is unique, we can look
up the eventfd directly, bypassing emulation.
Unfortunately, this only works if userspace does not need to match on
access length and data. The implementation adds a separate FAST_MMIO
bus internally. This serves two purposes:
- minimize overhead for old userspace that does not use eventfd with lengtth = 0
- minimize disruption in other code (since we don't know the length,
devices on the MMIO bus only get a valid address in write, this
way we don't need to touch all devices to teach them to handle
an invalid length)
At the moment, this optimization only has effect for EPT on x86.
It will be possible to speed up MMIO for NPT and MMU using the same
idea in the future.
With this patch applied, on VMX MMIO EVENTFD is essentially as fast as PIO.
I was unable to detect any measureable slowdown to non-eventfd MMIO.
Making MMIO faster is important for the upcoming virtio 1.0 which
includes an MMIO signalling capability.
The idea was suggested by Peter Anvin. Lots of thanks to Gleb for
pre-review and suggestions.

"PPC and ARM do not have much going on this time. Most of the cool
stuff, instead, is in s390 and (after a few releases) x86.
ARM has some caching fixes and PPC has transactional memory support in
guests. MIPS has some fixes, with more probably coming in 3.16 as
QEMU will soon get support for MIPS KVM.
For x86 there are optimizations for debug registers, which trigger on
some Windows games, and other important fixes for Windows guests. We
now expose to the guest Broadwell instruction set extensions and also
Intel MPX. There's also a fix/workaround for OS X guests, nested
virtualization features (preemption timer), and a couple kvmclock
refinements.
For s390, the main news is asynchronous page faults, together with
improvements to IRQs (floating irqs and adapter irqs) that speed up
virtio devices"

Using the address of 'empty_zero_page' as source address in order to
clear a page is wrong. On some architectures empty_zero_page is only the
pointer to the struct page of the empty_zero_page. Therefore the clear
page operation would copy the contents of a couple of struct pages instead
of clearing a page. For kvm only arm/arm64 are affected by this bug.
To fix this use the ZERO_PAGE macro instead which will return the struct
page address of the empty_zero_page on all architectures.

In kvm_iommu_map_pages(), we need to know the page size via call

Currently, we will map the iommu pages when creating a new slot.
But we call kvm_iommu_map_pages() during preparing the new slot.
At that time, the new slot is not visible by domain(still in preparing).
So we cannot get the right page size from kvm_host_page_size() and
this will break the IOMMU super page logic.

The checks on PG_reserved in the page structure on head and tail pages
aren't necessary because split_huge_page wouldn't transfer the
PG_reserved bit from head to tail anyway.
This was a forward-thinking check done in the case PageReserved was
set by a driver-owned page mapped in userland with something like
remap_pfn_range in a VM_PFNMAP region, but using hugepmds (not
possible right now). It was meant to be very safe, but it's overkill
as it's unlikely split_huge_page could ever run without the driver
noticing and tearing down the hugepage itself.
And if a driver in the future will really want to map a reserved

KVM uses anon_inode_get() to allocate file descriptors as part
of some of its ioctls. But those ioctls are lacking a flag argument
allowing userspace to choose options for the newly opened file descriptor.
In such case it's advised to use O_CLOEXEC by default so that
userspace is allowed to choose, without race, if the file descriptor
is going to be inherited across exec().
This patch set O_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors created
with anon_inode_getfd() to not leak file descriptors across exec().

This adds the API for userspace to instantiate an XICS device in a VM
and connect VCPUs to it. The API consists of a new device type for
the KVM_CREATE_DEVICE ioctl, a new capability KVM_CAP_IRQ_XICS, which
functions similarly to KVM_CAP_IRQ_MPIC, and the KVM_IRQ_LINE ioctl,
which is used to assert and deassert interrupt inputs of the XICS.
The XICS device has one attribute group, KVM_DEV_XICS_GRP_SOURCES.
Each attribute within this group corresponds to the state of one
interrupt source. The attribute number is the same as the interrupt
source number.
This does not support irq routing or irqfd yet.

Currently, devices that are emulated inside KVM are configured in a
hardcoded manner based on an assumption that any given architecture
only has one way to do it. If there's any need to access device state,
it is done through inflexible one-purpose-only IOCTLs (e.g.
KVM_GET/SET_LAPIC). Defining new IOCTLs for every little thing is
cumbersome and depletes a limited numberspace.
This API provides a mechanism to instantiate a device of a certain
type, returning an ID that can be used to set/get attributes of the
device. Attributes may include configuration parameters (e.g.
register base address), device state, operational commands, etc. It
is similar to the ONE_REG API, except that it acts on devices rather
than vcpus.
Both device types and individual attributes can be tested without having
to create the device or get/set the attribute, without the need for
separately managing enumerated capabilities.

- kvm_arch_commit_memory_region() write protects the memory slot only
for GET_DIRTY_LOG when modifying the flags.
- FNAME(sync_page) uses the old spte value to set a new one without
checking KVM_MEM_READONLY flag.
Since we flush all shadow pages when creating a new slot, the simplest
fix is to disallow such problematic flag changes: this is safe because
no one is doing such things.

KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION forces __kvm_set_memory_region() to identify
what kind of change is being requested by checking the arguments. The
current code does this checking at various points in code and each
condition being used there is not easy to understand at first glance.
This patch consolidates these checks and introduces an enum to name the
possible changes to clean up the code.
Although this does not introduce any functional changes, there is one
change which optimizes the code a bit: if we have nothing to change, the
new code returns 0 immediately.
Note that the return value for this case cannot be changed since QEMU

yield_to returns -ESRCH, When source and target of yield_to
run queue length is one. When we see three successive failures of
yield_to we assume we are in potential undercommit case and abort
from PLE handler.
The assumption is backed by low probability of wrong decision
for even worst case scenarios such as average runqueue length
between 1 and 2.
More detail on rationale behind using three tries:
if p is the probability of finding rq length one on a particular cpu,
and if we do n tries, then probability of exiting ple handler is:
p^(n+1) [ because we would have come across one source with rq length
1 and n target cpu rqs with length 1 ]
so
num tries: probability of aborting ple handler (1.5x overcommit)
1 1/4
2 1/8
3 1/16
We can increase this probability with more tries, but the problem is
the overhead.
Also, If we have tried three times that means we would have iterated
over 3 good eligible vcpus along with many non-eligible candidates. In
worst case if we iterate all the vcpus, we reduce 1x performance and
overcommit performance get hit.
note that we do not update last boosted vcpu in failure cases.
Thank Avi for raising question on aborting after first fail from yield_to.

Virtual interrupt delivery avoids KVM to inject vAPIC interrupts
manually, which is fully taken care of by the hardware. This needs
some special awareness into existing interrupr injection path:
- for pending interrupt, instead of direct injection, we may need
update architecture specific indicators before resuming to guest.
- A pending interrupt, which is masked by ISR, should be also
considered in above update action, since hardware will decide
when to inject it at right time. Current has_interrupt and
get_interrupt only returns a valid vector from injection p.o.v.
