KVM: PPC: Allocate RMAs (Real Mode Areas) at boot for use by guests This adds infrastructure which will be needed to allow book3s_hv KVM to run on older POWER processors, including PPC970, which don't support the Virtual Real Mode Area (VRMA) facility, but only the Real Mode Offset (RMO) facility. These processors require a physically contiguous, aligned area of memory for each guest. When the guest does an access in real mode (MMU off), the address is compared against a limit value, and if it is lower, the address is ORed with an offset value (from the Real Mode Offset Register (RMOR)) and the result becomes the real address for the access. The size of the RMA has to be one of a set of supported values, which usually includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB and some larger powers of 2. Since we are unlikely to be able to allocate 64MB or more of physically contiguous memory after the kernel has been running for a while, we allocate a pool of RMAs at boot time using the bootmem allocator. The size and number of the RMAs can be set using the kvm_rma_size=xx and kvm_rma_count=xx kernel command line options. KVM exports a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA, to signal the availability of the pool of preallocated RMAs. The capability value is 1 if the processor can use an RMA but doesn't require one (because it supports the VRMA facility), or 2 if the processor requires an RMA for each guest. This adds a new ioctl, KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA, which allocates an RMA from the pool and returns a file descriptor which can be used to map the RMA. It also returns the size of the RMA in the argument structure. Having an RMA means we will get multiple KMV_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION ioctl calls from userspace. To cope with this, we now preallocate the kvm->arch.ram_pginfo array when the VM is created with a size sufficient for up to 64GB of guest memory. Subsequently we will get rid of this array and use memory associated with each memslot instead. This moves most of the code that translates the user addresses into host pfns (page frame numbers) out of kvmppc_prepare_vrma up one level to kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region. Also, instead of having to look up the VMA for each page in order to check the page size, we now check that the pages we get are compound pages of 16MB. However, if we are adding memory that is mapped to an RMA, we don't bother with calling get_user_pages_fast and instead just offset from the base pfn for the RMA. Typically the RMA gets added after vcpus are created, which makes it inconvenient to have the LPCR (logical partition control register) value in the vcpu->arch struct, since the LPCR controls whether the processor uses RMA or VRMA for the guest. This moves the LPCR value into the kvm->arch struct and arranges for the MER (mediated external request) bit, which is the only bit that varies between vcpus, to be set in assembly code when going into the guest if there is a pending external interrupt request.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Improve H_CONFER implementation Currently the H_CONFER hcall is implemented in kernel virtual mode, meaning that whenever a guest thread does an H_CONFER, all the threads in that virtual core have to exit the guest. This is bad for performance because it interrupts the other threads even if they are doing useful work. The H_CONFER hcall is called by a guest VCPU when it is spinning on a spinlock and it detects that the spinlock is held by a guest VCPU that is currently not running on a physical CPU. The idea is to give this VCPU's time slice to the holder VCPU so that it can make progress towards releasing the lock. To avoid having the other threads exit the guest unnecessarily, we add a real-mode implementation of H_CONFER that checks whether the other threads are doing anything. If all the other threads are idle (i.e. in H_CEDE) or trying to confer (i.e. in H_CONFER), it returns H_TOO_HARD which causes a guest exit and allows the H_CONFER to be handled in virtual mode. Otherwise it spins for a short time (up to 10 microseconds) to give other threads the chance to observe that this thread is trying to confer. The spin loop also terminates when any thread exits the guest or when all other threads are idle or trying to confer. If the timeout is reached, the H_CONFER returns H_SUCCESS. In this case the guest VCPU will recheck the spinlock word and most likely call H_CONFER again. This also improves the implementation of the H_CONFER virtual mode handler. If the VCPU is part of a virtual core (vcore) which is runnable, there will be a 'runner' VCPU which has taken responsibility for running the vcore. In this case we yield to the runner VCPU rather than the target VCPU. We also introduce a check on the target VCPU's yield count: if it differs from the yield count passed to H_CONFER, the target VCPU has run since H_CONFER was called and may have already released the lock. This check is required by PAPR. Signed-off-by: Sam Bobroff <sam.bobroff@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make use of unused threads when running guests When running a virtual core of a guest that is configured with fewer threads per core than the physical cores have, the extra physical threads are currently unused. This makes it possible to use them to run one or more other virtual cores from the same guest when certain conditions are met. This applies on POWER7, and on POWER8 to guests with one thread per virtual core. (It doesn't apply to POWER8 guests with multiple threads per vcore because they require a 1-1 virtual to physical thread mapping in order to be able to use msgsndp and the TIR.) The idea is that we maintain a list of preempted vcores for each physical cpu (i.e. each core, since the host runs single-threaded). Then, when a vcore is about to run, it checks to see if there are any vcores on the list for its physical cpu that could be piggybacked onto this vcore's execution. If so, those additional vcores are put into state VCORE_PIGGYBACK and their runnable VCPU threads are started as well as the original vcore, which is called the master vcore. After the vcores have exited the guest, the extra ones are put back onto the preempted list if any of their VCPUs are still runnable and not idle. This means that vcpu->arch.ptid is no longer necessarily the same as the physical thread that the vcpu runs on. In order to make it easier for code that wants to send an IPI to know which CPU to target, we now store that in a new field in struct vcpu_arch, called thread_cpu.

If the VCPU is part of a virtual core (vcore) which is runnable, there will be a 'runner' VCPU which has taken responsibility for running the vcore. In this case we yield to the runner VCPU rather than the target VCPU. We also introduce a check on the target VCPU's yield count: if it differs from the yield count passed to H_CONFER, the target VCPU has run since H_CONFER was called and may have already released the lock.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make use of unused threads when running guests When running a virtual core of a guest that is configured with fewer threads per core than the physical cores have, the extra physical threads are currently unused. This makes it possible to use them to run one or more other virtual cores from the same guest when certain conditions are met. This applies on POWER7, and on POWER8 to guests with one thread per virtual core. (It doesn't apply to POWER8 guests with multiple threads per vcore because they require a 1-1 virtual to physical thread mapping in order to be able to use msgsndp and the TIR.) The idea is that we maintain a list of preempted vcores for each physical cpu (i.e. each core, since the host runs single-threaded). Then, when a vcore is about to run, it checks to see if there are any vcores on the list for its physical cpu that could be piggybacked onto this vcore's execution. If so, those additional vcores are put into state VCORE_PIGGYBACK and their runnable VCPU threads are started as well as the original vcore, which is called the master vcore. After the vcores have exited the guest, the extra ones are put back onto the preempted list if any of their VCPUs are still runnable and not idle. This means that vcpu->arch.ptid is no longer necessarily the same as the physical thread that the vcpu runs on. In order to make it easier for code that wants to send an IPI to know which CPU to target, we now store that in a new field in struct vcpu_arch, called thread_cpu.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Improve H_CONFER implementation Currently the H_CONFER hcall is implemented in kernel virtual mode, meaning that whenever a guest thread does an H_CONFER, all the threads in that virtual core have to exit the guest. This is bad for performance because it interrupts the other threads even if they are doing useful work. The H_CONFER hcall is called by a guest VCPU when it is spinning on a spinlock and it detects that the spinlock is held by a guest VCPU that is currently not running on a physical CPU. The idea is to give this VCPU's time slice to the holder VCPU so that it can make progress towards releasing the lock. To avoid having the other threads exit the guest unnecessarily, we add a real-mode implementation of H_CONFER that checks whether the other threads are doing anything. If all the other threads are idle (i.e. in H_CEDE) or trying to confer (i.e. in H_CONFER), it returns H_TOO_HARD which causes a guest exit and allows the H_CONFER to be handled in virtual mode. Otherwise it spins for a short time (up to 10 microseconds) to give other threads the chance to observe that this thread is trying to confer. The spin loop also terminates when any thread exits the guest or when all other threads are idle or trying to confer. If the timeout is reached, the H_CONFER returns H_SUCCESS.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Implement dynamic micro-threading on POWER8 This builds on the ability to run more than one vcore on a physical core by using the micro-threading (split-core) modes of the POWER8 chip. Previously, only vcores from the same VM could be run together, and (on POWER8) only if they had just one thread per core. With the ability to split the core on guest entry and unsplit it on guest exit, we can run up to 8 vcpu threads from up to 4 different VMs, and we can run multiple vcores with 2 or 4 vcpus per vcore. Dynamic micro-threading is only available if the static configuration of the cores is whole-core mode (unsplit), and only on POWER8. To manage this, we introduce a new kvm_split_mode struct which is shared across all of the subcores in the core, with a pointer in the paca on each thread. In addition we extend the core_info struct to have information on each subcore. When deciding whether to add a vcore to the set already on the core, we now have two possibilities: (a) piggyback the vcore onto an existing subcore, or (b) start a new subcore. Currently, when any vcpu needs to exit the guest and switch to host virtual mode, we interrupt all the threads in all subcores and switch the core back to whole-core mode. It may be possible in future to allow some of the subcores to keep executing in the guest while subcore 0 switches to the host, but that is not implemented in this patch. This adds a module parameter called dynamic_mt_modes which controls which micro-threading (split-core) modes the code will consider, as a bitmap. In other words, if it is 0, no micro-threading mode is considered; if it is 2, only 2-way micro-threading is considered; if it is 4, only 4-way, and if it is 6, both 2-way and 4-way micro-threading mode will be considered. The default is 6. With this, we now have secondary threads which are the primary thread for their subcore and therefore need to do the MMU switch. These threads will need to be started even if they have no vcpu to run, so we use the vcore pointer in the PACA rather than the vcpu pointer to trigger them. It is now possible for thread 0 to find that an exit has been requested before it gets to switch the subcore state to the guest. In that case we haven't added the guest's timebase offset to the timebase, so we need to be careful not to subtract the offset in the guest exit path. In fact we just skip the whole path that switches back to host context, since we haven't switched to the guest context.
