It's not desireable to have all MSRs always handled by KVM kernel space. Some
MSRs would be useful to handle in user space to either emulate behavior (like
uCode updates) or differentiate whether they are valid based on the CPU model.
To allow user space to specify which MSRs it wants to see handled by KVM,
this patch introduces a new ioctl to push filter rules with bitmaps into
KVM. Based on these bitmaps, KVM can then decide whether to reject MSR access.
With the addition of KVM_CAP_X86_USER_SPACE_MSR it can also deflect the
denied MSR events to user space to operate on.
If no filter is populated, MSR handling stays identical to before.

MSRs are weird. Some of them are normal control registers, such as EFER.
Some however are registers that really are model specific, not very
interesting to virtualization workloads, and not performance critical.
Others again are really just windows into package configuration.
Out of these MSRs, only the first category is necessary to implement in
kernel space. Rarely accessed MSRs, MSRs that should be fine tunes against
certain CPU models and MSRs that contain information on the package level
are much better suited for user space to process. However, over time we have
accumulated a lot of MSRs that are not the first category, but still handled
by in-kernel KVM code.
This patch adds a generic interface to handle WRMSR and RDMSR from user
space. With this, any future MSR that is part of the latter categories can
be handled in user space.
Furthermore, it allows us to replace the existing "ignore_msrs" logic with
something that applies per-VM rather than on the full system. That way you
can run productive VMs in parallel to experimental ones where you don't care
about proper MSR handling.

arm64 requires a vcpu fd (KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR vcpu ioctl) to probe
support for steal-time. However this is unnecessary, as only a KVM
fd is required, and it complicates userspace (userspace may prefer
delaying vcpu creation until after feature probing). Introduce a cap
that can be checked instead. While x86 can already probe steal-time
support with a kvm fd (KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID), we add the cap there
too for consistency.

More often than not, a failed VM-entry in an x86 production
environment is induced by a defective CPU. To help identify the bad
hardware, include the id of the last logical CPU to run a vCPU in the
information provided to userspace on a KVM exit for failed VM-entry or
for KVM internal errors not associated with emulation. The presence of
this additional information is indicated by a new capability,

KVM/arm64 updates for Linux 5.8:
- Move the arch-specific code into arch/arm64/kvm
- Start the post-32bit cleanup
- Cherry-pick a few non-invasive pre-NV patches
Add support for Hyper-V synthetic debugger (syndbg) interface.
The syndbg interface is using MSRs to emulate a way to send/recv packets
data.
The debug transport dll (kdvm/kdnet) will identify if Hyper-V is enabled
and if it supports the synthetic debugger interface it will attempt to
use it, instead of trying to initialize a network adapter.

Add new field to hold preemption timer expiration deadline
appended to struct kvm_vmx_nested_state_hdr. This is to prevent
the first VM-Enter after migration from incorrectly restarting the timer
with the full timer value instead of partially decayed timer value.
KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE restarts timer using migrated state regardless
of whether L1 sets VM_EXIT_SAVE_VMX_PREEMPTION_TIMER.

The problem the patch is trying to address is the fact that 'struct
kvm_hyperv_exit' has different layout on when compiling in 32 and 64 bit
modes.
In 64-bit mode the default alignment boundary is 64 bits thus
forcing extra gaps after 'type' and 'msr' but in 32-bit mode the
boundary is at 32 bits thus no extra gaps.
This is an issue as even when the kernel is 64 bit, the userspace using
the interface can be both 32 and 64 bit but the same 32 bit userspace has
to work with 32 bit kernel.
The issue is fixed by forcing the 64 bit layout, this leads to ABI
change for 32 bit builds and while we are obviously breaking '32 bit
userspace with 32 bit kernel' case, we're fixing the '32 bit userspace
with 64 bit kernel' one.
As the interface has no (known) users and 32 bit KVM is rather baroque
nowadays, this seems like a reasonable decision.

If two page ready notifications happen back to back the second one is not
delivered and the only mechanism we currently have is
kvm_check_async_pf_completion() check in vcpu_run() loop. The check will
only be performed with the next vmexit when it happens and in some cases
it may take a while. With interrupt based page ready notification delivery
the situation is even worse: unlike exceptions, interrupts are not handled
immediately so we must check if the slot is empty. This is slow and
unnecessary. Introduce dedicated MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK MSR to communicate
the fact that the slot is free and host should check its notification
queue. Mandate using it for interrupt based 'page ready' APF event
delivery.
As kvm_check_async_pf_completion() is going away from vcpu_run() we need
a way to communicate the fact that vcpu->async_pf.done queue has
transitioned from empty to non-empty state. Introduce
kvm_arch_async_page_present_queued() and KVM_REQ_APF_READY to do the job.

Concerns were expressed around APF delivery via synthetic #PF exception as
in some cases such delivery may collide with real page fault. For 'page
ready' notifications we can easily switch to using an interrupt instead.
Introduce new MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_INT mechanism and deprecate the legacy one.
One notable difference between the two mechanisms is that interrupt may not
get handled immediately so whenever we would like to deliver next event
(regardless of its type) we must be sure the guest had read and cleared
previous event in the slot.
While on it, get rid on 'type 1/type 2' names for APF events in the
documentation as they are causing confusion. Use 'page not present'
and 'page ready' everywhere instead.

There is already support of enabling dirty log gradually in small chunks
for x86 in commit 3c9bd4006b ("KVM: x86: enable dirty log gradually in
small chunks"). This adds support for arm64.
x86 still writes protect all huge pages when DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_ALL_SET
is enabled. However, for arm64, both huge pages and normal pages can be
write protected gradually by userspace.
Under the Huawei Kunpeng 920 2.6GHz platform, I did some tests on 128G
Linux VMs with different page size. The memory pressure is 127G in each
case. The time taken of memory_global_dirty_log_start in QEMU is listed
below:
Page Size Before After Optimization
4K 650ms 1.8ms
2M 4ms 1.8ms
1G 2ms 1.8ms
Besides the time reduction, the biggest improvement is that we will minimize
the performance side effect (because of dissolving huge pages and marking
memslots dirty) on guest after enabling dirty log.

KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL is a per-VM capability that lets userspace
control the halt-polling time, allowing halt-polling to be tuned or
disabled on particular VMs.
With dynamic halt-polling, a VM's VCPUs can poll from anywhere from
[0, halt_poll_ns] on each halt. KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL sets the
upper limit on the poll time.

Remove all references to cr3_target_value[0-3] and replace the fields
in vmcs12 with "dead_space" to preserve the vmcs12 layout. KVM doesn't
support emulating CR3-target values, despite a variety of code that
implies otherwise, as KVM unconditionally reports '0' for the number of
supported CR3-target values.
This technically fixes a bug where KVM would incorrectly allow VMREAD
and VMWRITE to nonexistent fields, i.e. cr3_target_value[0-3]. Per
Intel's SDM, the number of supported CR3-target values reported in
VMX_MISC also enumerates the existence of the associated VMCS fields:
If a future implementation supports more than 4 CR3-target values, they
will be encoded consecutively following the 4 encodings given here.
Alternatively, the "bug" could be fixed by actually advertisting support
for 4 CR3-target values, but that'd likely just enable kvm-unit-tests
given that no one has complained about lack of support for going on ten
years, e.g. KVM, Xen and HyperV don't use CR3-target values.

KVM: s390: Fix for error codes
- return the proper error to userspace when a signal interrupts the
KSM unsharing operation
If a signal is pending we might return -ENOMEM instead of -EINTR.
We should propagate the proper error during KSM unsharing.
unmerge_ksm_pages returns -ERESTARTSYS on signal_pending. This gets
translated by entry.S to -EINTR. It is important to get this error
code so that userspace can retry.
To make this clearer we also add -EINTR to the documentation of the
PV_ENABLE call, which calls unmerge_ksm_pages.
Fixes: 3ac8e38015 ("s390/mm: disable KSM for storage key enabled pages")

At present, on Power systems with Protected Execution Facility
hardware and an ultravisor, a KVM guest can transition to being a
secure guest at will. Userspace (QEMU) has no way of knowing
whether a host system is capable of running secure guests. This
will present a problem in future when the ultravisor is capable of
migrating secure guests from one host to another, because
virtualization management software will have no way to ensure that
secure guests only run in domains where all of the hosts can
support secure guests.
This adds a VM capability which has two functions: (a) userspace
can query it to find out whether the host can support secure guests,
and (b) userspace can enable it for a guest, which allows that
guest to become a secure guest. If userspace does not enable it,
KVM will return an error when the ultravisor does the hypercall
that indicates that the guest is starting to transition to a
secure guest. The ultravisor will then abort the transition and
the guest will terminate.

Userspace has no way to query if SEV has been disabled with the

is a hack: do ioctl(KVM_MEM_ENCRYPT_OP, NULL) and check if it

SEV enabled and NULL argument, and while at it document the

1. Allow to disable gisa
2. protected virtual machines
Protected VMs (PVM) are KVM VMs, where KVM can't access the VM's
state like guest memory and guest registers anymore. Instead the
PVMs are mostly managed by a new entity called Ultravisor (UV),
which provides an API, so KVM and the PV can request management
actions.
PVMs are encrypted at rest and protected from hypervisor access
while running. They switch from a normal operation into protected
mode, so we can still use the standard boot process to load a
encrypted blob and then move it into protected mode.
Rebooting is only possible by passing through the unprotected/normal
mode and switching to protected again.

It could take kvm->mmu_lock for an extended period of time when
enabling dirty log for the first time. The main cost is to clear
all the D-bits of last level SPTEs. This situation can benefit from
manual dirty log protect as well, which can reduce the mmu_lock
time taken. The sequence is like this:
1. Initialize all the bits of the dirty bitmap to 1 when enabling
dirty log for the first time
2. Only write protect the huge pages
3. KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG returns the dirty bitmap info
4. KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG will clear D-bit for each of the leaf level
SPTEs gradually in small chunks

The adapter interrupt page containing the indicator bits is currently
pinned. That means that a guest with many devices can pin a lot of
memory pages in the host. This also complicates the reference tracking
which is needed for memory management handling of protected virtual
machines. It might also have some strange side effects for madvise
MADV_DONTNEED and other things.
We can simply try to get the userspace page set the bits and free the
page. By storing the userspace address in the irq routing entry instead
of the guest address we can actually avoid many lookups and list walks
so that this variant is very likely not slower.
If userspace messes around with the memory slots the worst thing that
can happen is that we write to some other memory within that process.
As we get the the page with FOLL_WRITE this can also not be used to
write to shared read-only pages.

Userspace might already reset the registers via the vcpu run struct,
but as we need the interface for the interrupt clearing part anyway,

- Ask UV to terminate the guest via UV_SVM_TERMINATE ucall
- Unpin the VPA pages so that they can be migrated back to secure
side when guest becomes secure again. This is required because
pinned pages can't be migrated.
- Reinit the partition scoped page tables

Add a new attribute to both XIVE and XICS-on-XIVE KVM devices so that
userspace can tell how many interrupt servers it needs. If a VM needs
less than the current default of KVM_MAX_VCPUS (2048), we can allocate
less VPs in OPAL. Combined with a core stride (VSMT) that matches the
number of guest threads per core, this may substantially increases the
number of VMs that can run concurrently with an in-kernel XIVE device.
Since the legacy XIVE KVM device is exposed to userspace through the
XICS KVM API, a new attribute group is added to it for this purpose.
While here, fix the syntax of the existing KVM_DEV_XICS_GRP_SOURCES
in the XICS documentation.

Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 based on the
"Arm Paravirtualized Time for Arm-Base Systems" specification DEN 0057A.
This only adds the details about "Stolen Time" as the details of "Live
Physical Time" have not been fully agreed.
User space can specify a reserved area of memory for the guest and
inform KVM to populate the memory with information on time that the host
kernel has stolen from the guest.
A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the
hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared
memory structures.

In some scenarios, such as buggy guest or incorrect configuration of the
VMM and firmware description data, userspace will detect a memory access
to a portion of the IPA, which is not mapped to any MMIO region.
For this purpose, the appropriate action is to inject an external abort
to the guest. The kernel already has functionality to inject an
external abort, but we need to wire up a signal from user space that
lets user space tell the kernel to do this.
It turns out, we already have the set event functionality which we can
perfectly reuse for this.

For a long time, if a guest accessed memory outside of a memslot using
any of the load/store instructions in the architecture which doesn't
supply decoding information in the ESR_EL2 (the ISV bit is not set), the
kernel would print the following message and terminate the VM as a
result of returning -ENOSYS to userspace:
load/store instruction decoding not implemented
The reason behind this message is that KVM assumes that all accesses
outside a memslot is an MMIO access which should be handled by
userspace, and we originally expected to eventually implement some sort
of decoding of load/store instructions where the ISV bit was not set.
However, it turns out that many of the instructions which don't provide
decoding information on abort are not safe to use for MMIO accesses, and
the remaining few that would potentially make sense to use on MMIO
accesses, such as those with register writeback, are not used in
practice. It also turns out that fetching an instruction from guest
memory can be a pretty horrible affair, involving stopping all CPUs on
SMP systems, handling multiple corner cases of address translation in
software, and more. It doesn't appear likely that we'll ever implement
this in the kernel.
What is much more common is that a user has misconfigured his/her guest
and is actually not accessing an MMIO region, but just hitting some
random hole in the IPA space. In this scenario, the error message above
is almost misleading and has led to a great deal of confusion over the
years.
It is, nevertheless, ABI to userspace, and we therefore need to
introduce a new capability that userspace explicitly enables to change
behavior.
This patch introduces KVM_CAP_ARM_NISV_TO_USER (NISV meaning Non-ISV)
which does exactly that, and introduces a new exit reason to report the
event to userspace. User space can then emulate an exception to the
guest, restart the guest, suspend the guest, or take any other
appropriate action as per the policy of the running system.

When calling the KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG ioctl, userspace might request
the next instruction to be single stepped via the
KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP control bit of the kvm_guest_debug structure.
This patch adds the KVM_CAP_PPC_GUEST_DEBUG_SSTEP capability in order
to inform userspace about the state of single stepping support.
We currently don't have support for guest single stepping implemented
in Book3S HV so the capability is only present for Book3S PR and
BookE.

Hyper-V direct tlb flush function should be enabled for
guest that only uses Hyper-V hypercall. User space
hypervisor(e.g, Qemu) can disable KVM identification in
CPUID and just exposes Hyper-V identification to make
sure the precondition. Add new KVM capability KVM_CAP_
HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH for user space to enable Hyper-V
direct tlb function and this function is default to be

Userspace can use ioctl KVM_SET_MSRS to update a set of MSRs of guest.
This ioctl set specified MSRs one by one. If it fails to set an MSR,
e.g., due to setting reserved bits, the MSR is not supported/emulated by
KVM, etc..., it stops processing the MSR list and returns the number of
MSRs have been set successfully.

PPC KVM update for 5.4
- Some prep for extending the uses of the rmap array
- Various minor fixes
- Commits from the powerpc topic/ppc-kvm branch, which fix a problem
with interrupts arriving after free_irq, causing host hangs and crashes.
While parts of the VGIC support a large number of vcpus (we
bravely allow up to 512), other parts are more limited.
One of these limits is visible in the KVM_IRQ_LINE ioctl, which
only allows 256 vcpus to be signalled when using the CPU or PPI
types. Unfortunately, we've cornered ourselves badly by allocating
all the bits in the irq field.
Since the irq_type subfield (8 bit wide) is currently only taking
the values 0, 1 and 2 (and we have been careful not to allow anything
else), let's reduce this field to only 4 bits, and allocate the
remaining 4 bits to a vcpu2_index, which acts as a multiplier:
vcpu_id = 256 * vcpu2_index + vcpu_index
With that, and a new capability (KVM_CAP_ARM_IRQ_LINE_LAYOUT_2)
allowing this to be discovered, it becomes possible to inject
PPIs to up to 4096 vcpus. But please just don't.
Whilst we're there, add a clarification about the use of KVM_IRQ_LINE
on arm, which is not completely conditionned by KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP.
