This new statistic can help diagnosing VCPUs that, for any reason,
trigger bad behavior of halt_poll_ns autotuning.
For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly
like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes
10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every
479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then
is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without
polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of
attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

Improve the save and restore behavior of FPU register contents to use the
vector extension within the kernel.
The kernel does not use floating-point or vector registers and, therefore,
saving and restoring the FPU register contents are performed for handling
signals or switching processes only. To prepare for using vector
instructions and vector registers within the kernel, enhance the save
behavior and implement a lazy restore at return to user space from a
system call or interrupt.
To implement the lazy restore, the save_fpu_regs() sets a CPU information
flag, CIF_FPU, to indicate that the FPU registers must be restored.
Saving and setting CIF_FPU is performed in an atomic fashion to be
interrupt-safe. When the kernel wants to use the vector extension or
wants to change the FPU register state for a task during signal handling,
the save_fpu_regs() must be called first. The CIF_FPU flag is also set at
process switch. At return to user space, the FPU state is restored. In
particular, the FPU state includes the floating-point or vector register
contents, as well as, vector-enablement and floating-point control. The
FPU state restore and clearing CIF_FPU is also performed in an atomic
fashion.
For KVM, the restore of the FPU register state is performed when restoring
the general-purpose guest registers before the SIE instructions is started.
Because the path towards the SIE instruction is interruptible, the CIF_FPU
flag must be checked again right before going into SIE. If set, the guest
registers must be reloaded again by re-entering the outer SIE loop. This
is the same behavior as if the SIE critical section is interrupted.

exit_sie_sync is used to kick CPUs out of SIE and prevent reentering at
any point in time. This is used to reload the prefix pages and to
set the IBS stuff in a way that guarantees that after this function
returns we are no longer in SIE. All current users trigger KVM requests.
The request must be set before we block the CPUs to avoid races. Let's
make this implicit by adding the request into a new function
kvm_s390_sync_requests that replaces exit_sie_sync and split out
s390_vcpu_block and s390_vcpu_unblock, that can be used to keep
CPUs out of SIE independent of requests.

This patch makes interrupt handling compliant to the z/Architecture
Principles of Operation with regard to interrupt priorities.
Add a bitmap for pending floating interrupts. Each bit relates to a

Currently we have one list for all kinds of floating interrupts and a

Define and allocate space for both the host and guest views of
the vector registers for a given vcpu. The 32 vector registers
occupy 128 bits each (512 bytes total), but architecturally are
paired with 512 additional bytes of reserved space for future
expansion.
The kvm_sync_regs structs containing the registers are union'ed
with 1024 bytes of padding in the common kvm_run struct. The
addition of 1024 bytes of new register information clearly exceeds
the existing union, so an expansion of that padding is required.
When changing environments, we need to appropriately save and
restore the vector registers viewed by both the host and guest,
into and out of the sync_regs space.
The floating point registers overlay the upper half of vector
registers 0-15, so there's a bit of data duplication here that

Most facility related decisions in KVM have to take into account:
- the facilities offered by the underlying run container (LPAR/VM)
- the facilities supported by the KVM code itself
- the facilities requested by a guest VM
This patch adds the KVM driver requested facilities to the test routine.
It additionally renames struct s390_model_fac to kvm_s390_fac and its field
names to be more meaningful.
The semantics of the facilities stored in the KVM architecture structure
is changed. The address arch.model.fac->list now points to the guest
facility list and arch.model.fac->mask points to the KVM facility mask.
This patch fixes the behaviour of KVM for some facilities for guests
that ignore the guest visible facility bits, e.g. guests could use
transactional memory intructions on hosts supporting them even if the
chosen cpu model would not offer them.
The userspace interface is not affected by this change.

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.

This patch
- adds s390 specific MP states to linux headers and documents them
- implements the KVM_{SET,GET}_MP_STATE ioctls
- enables KVM_CAP_MP_STATE
- allows user space to control the VCPU state on s390.
If user space sets the VCPU state using the ioctl KVM_SET_MP_STATE, we can disable
manual changing of the VCPU state and trust user space to do the right thing.

Based on original patch from Jeng-fang (Nick) Wang
When standby memory is specified for a guest Linux, but no virtual memory has
been allocated on the Qemu host backing that guest, the guest memory detection
process encounters a memory access exception which is not thrown from the KVM
handle_tprot() instruction-handler function. The access exception comes from
sie64a returning EFAULT, which then passes an addressing exception to the guest.
Unfortunately this does not the proper PSW fixup (nullifying vs.
suppressing) so the guest will get a fault for the wrong address.
Let's just intercept the tprot instruction all the time to do the right thing
and not go the page fault handler path for standby memory. tprot is only used
by Linux during startup so some exits should be ok.
Without this patch, standby memory cannot be used with KVM.

This patch splits the SIE state guest prefix at offset 4
into a prefix bit field. Additionally it provides the
access functions:
- kvm_s390_get_prefix()
- kvm_s390_set_prefix()
to access the prefix per vcpu.

If the sigp interpretation facility is installed, most SIGP EXTERNAL CALL
operations will be interpreted instead of intercepted. A partial execution
interception will occurr at the sending cpu only if the target cpu is in the
wait state ("W" bit in the cpuflags set). Instruction interception will only
happen in error cases (e.g. cpu addr invalid).
As a sending cpu might set the external call interrupt pending flags at the
target cpu at every point in time, we can't handle this kind of interrupt using
our kvm interrupt injection mechanism. The injection will be done automatically
by the SIE when preparing the start of the target cpu.

The external interrupt interception can only occur in rare cases, e.g.
when the PSW of the interrupt handler has a bad value. The old handler
for this interception simply ignored these events (except for increasing
the exit_external_interrupt counter), but for proper operation we either
have to inject the interrupts manually or we should drop to userspace in
case of errors.

This patch enables the IBS facility when a single VCPU is running.
The facility is dynamically turned on/off as soon as other VCPUs
enter/leave the stopped state.
When this facility is operating, some instructions can be executed
faster for single-cpu guests.

This patch adds support to debug the guest using the PER facility on s390.
Single-stepping, hardware breakpoints and hardware watchpoints are supported. In
order to use the PER facility of the guest without it noticing it, the control
registers of the guest have to be patched and access to them has to be
intercepted(stctl, stctg, lctl, lctlg).
All PER program interrupts have to be intercepted and only the relevant PER
interrupts for the guest have to be given back. Special care has to be taken
about repeated exits on the same hardware breakpoint. The intervention of the
host in the guests PER configuration is not fully transparent. PER instruction
nullification can not be used by the guest and too many storage alteration
events may be reported to the guest (if it is activated for special address
ranges only) when the host concurrently debugging it.

When a program interrupt was to be delivered until now, no program interrupt
parameters were stored in the low-core of the target vcpu.
This patch enables the delivery of those program interrupt parameters, takes
care of concurrent PER events which can be injected in addition to any program
interrupt and uses the correct instruction length code (depending on the
interception code) for the injection of program interrupts.
