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.

To avoid the introduction of new ioctls, let's provide the

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

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

ARM has some caching fixes and PPC has transactional memory support in

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

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
kvm_host_page_size(). And it will check whether the target slot
is valid before return the right page size.
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 solution is to map the iommu pages after we insert the new slot
into domain.

In commit e935b8372c ("KVM: Convert kvm_lock to raw_spinlock"),
the kvm_lock was made a raw lock. However, the kvm mmu_shrink()
function tries to grab the (non-raw) mmu_lock within the scope of
the raw locked kvm_lock being held. This leads to the following:

After the previous patch, kvm_lock need not be a raw spinlock anymore,
so change it back.

Page tables in a read-only memory slot will currently cause a triple
fault because the page walker uses gfn_to_hva and it fails on such a slot.
OVMF uses such a page table; however, real hardware seems to be fine with
that as long as the accessed/dirty bits are set. Save whether the slot
is readonly, and later check it when updating the accessed and dirty bits.

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
hugepage in userland using an huge pmd it should simply take care of
marking all subpages reserved too to keep KVM safe. This of course
would require such a hypothetical driver to tear down the huge pmd
itself and splitting the hugepage itself, instead of relaying on
split_huge_page, but that sounds very reasonable, especially
considering split_huge_page wouldn't currently transfer the reserved
bit anyway.

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().

kvm_io_bus_sort_cmp is used also directly, not just as a callback for

and uses it throughout kvm_main.c.

This is called right after the memslots is updated, i.e. when the result
of update_memslots() gets installed in install_new_memslots(). Since
the memslots needs to be updated twice when we delete or move a memslot,
kvm_arch_commit_memory_region() does not correspond to this exactly.
In the following patch, x86 will use this new API to check if the mmio
generation has reached its maximum value, in which case mmio sptes need
to be flushed out.

We can easily reach the 1000 limit by start VM with a couple
hundred I/O devices (multifunction=on). The hardcode limit
already been adjusted 3 times (6 ~ 200 ~ 300 ~ 1000).
In userspace, we already have maximum file descriptor to
limit ioeventfd count. But kvm_io_bus devices also are used
for pit, pic, ioapic, coalesced_mmio. They couldn't be limited
by maximum file descriptor.
Currently only ioeventfds take too much kvm_io_bus devices,
so just exclude it from counting kvm_io_range limit.
Also fixed one indent issue in kvm_host.h

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
- More work on DT support for various platforms
- Various fixes that were to late to make it straight into 3.9
- Improved platform support, in particular the Netlogic XLR and
BCM63xx, and the SEAD3 and Malta eval boards.
- Support for several Ralink SOC families.
- Complete support for the microMIPS ASE which basically reencodes the
existing MIPS32/MIPS64 ISA to use non-constant size instructions.
- Some fallout from LTO work which remove old cruft and will generally
make the MIPS kernel easier to maintain and resistant to compiler
optimization, even in absence of LTO.
- KVM support. While MIPS has announced hardware virtualization
extensions this KVM extension uses trap and emulate mode for
virtualization of MIPS32. More KVM work to add support for VZ
hardware virtualizaiton extensions and MIPS64 will probably already
be merged for 3.11.
Most of this has been sitting in -next for a long time. All defconfigs
have been build or run time tested except three for which fixes are being
sent by other maintainers.

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.
