Christoffer Dall c07a0191ef KVM: arm-vgic: Add vgic reg access from dev attr
Add infrastructure to handle distributor and cpu interface register
accesses through the KVM_{GET/SET}_DEVICE_ATTR interface by adding the
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS and KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CPU_REGS groups
and defining the semantics of the attr field to be the MMIO offset as
specified in the GICv2 specs.

Missing register accesses or other changes in individual register access
functions to support save/restore of the VGIC state is added in
subsequent patches.

Christoffer Dall ce01e4e887 KVM: arm-vgic: Set base addr through device API
Support setting the distributor and cpu interface base addresses in the
VM physical address space through the KVM_{SET,GET}_DEVICE_ATTR API
in addition to the ARM specific API.

This has the added benefit of being able to share more code in user
space and do things in a uniform manner.

Also deprecate the older API at the same time, but backwards
compatibility will be maintained.

Christoffer Dall 7330672bef KVM: arm-vgic: Support KVM_CREATE_DEVICE for VGIC
Support creating the ARM VGIC device through the KVM_CREATE_DEVICE
ioctl, which can then later be leveraged to use the
KVM_{GET/SET}_DEVICE_ATTR, which is useful both for setting addresses in
a more generic API than the ARM-specific one and is useful for
save/restore of VGIC state.

Adds KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL to ARM capabilities.

Note that we change the check for creating a VGIC from bailing out if
any VCPUs were created, to bailing out if any VCPUs were ever run.  This
is an important distinction that shouldn't break anything, but allows
creating the VGIC after the VCPUs have been created.

Alex Williamson ec53500fae kvm: Add VFIO device
So far we've succeeded at making KVM and VFIO mostly unaware of each
other, but areas are cropping up where a connection beyond eventfds
and irqfds needs to be made.  This patch introduces a KVM-VFIO device
that is meant to be a gateway for such interaction.  The user creates
the device and can add and remove VFIO groups to it via file
descriptors.  When a group is added, KVM verifies the group is valid
and gets a reference to it via the VFIO external user interface.

Paul Mackerras 388cc6e133 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Support POWER6 compatibility mode on POWER7
This enables us to use the Processor Compatibility Register (PCR) on
POWER7 to put the processor into architecture 2.05 compatibility mode
when running a guest.  In this mode the new instructions and registers
that were introduced on POWER7 are disabled in user mode.  This
includes all the VSX facilities plus several other instructions such
as ldbrx, stdbrx, popcntw, popcntd, etc.

To select this mode, we have a new register accessible through the
set/get_one_reg interface, called KVM_REG_PPC_ARCH_COMPAT.  Setting
this to zero gives the full set of capabilities of the processor.
Setting it to one of the "logical" PVR values defined in PAPR puts
the vcpu into the compatibility mode for the corresponding
architecture level.  The supported values are:

0x0f000002	Architecture 2.05 (POWER6)
0x0f000003	Architecture 2.06 (POWER7)
0x0f100003	Architecture 2.06+ (POWER7+)

Since the PCR is per-core, the architecture compatibility level and
the corresponding PCR value are stored in the struct kvmppc_vcore, and
are therefore shared between all vcpus in a virtual core.

Paul Mackerras 4b8473c9c1 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add support for guest Program Priority Register
POWER7 and later IBM server processors have a register called the
Program Priority Register (PPR), which controls the priority of
each hardware CPU SMT thread, and affects how fast it runs compared
to other SMT threads.  This priority can be controlled by writing to
the PPR or by use of a set of instructions of the form or rN,rN,rN
which are otherwise no-ops but have been defined to set the priority
to particular levels.

This adds code to context switch the PPR when entering and exiting
guests and to make the PPR value accessible through the SET/GET_ONE_REG
interface.  When entering the guest, we set the PPR as late as
possible, because if we are setting a low thread priority it will
make the code run slowly from that point on.  Similarly, the
first-level interrupt handlers save the PPR value in the PACA very
early on, and set the thread priority to the medium level, so that
the interrupt handling code runs at a reasonable speed.

Paul Mackerras a0144e2a6b KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Store LPCR value for each virtual core
This adds the ability to have a separate LPCR (Logical Partitioning
Control Register) value relating to a guest for each virtual core,
rather than only having a single value for the whole VM.  This
corresponds to what real POWER hardware does, where there is a LPCR
per CPU thread but most of the fields are required to have the same
value on all active threads in a core.

The per-virtual-core LPCR can be read and written using the
GET/SET_ONE_REG interface.  Userspace can can only modify the
following fields of the LPCR value:

DPFD	Default prefetch depth
ILE	Interrupt little-endian
TC	Translation control (secondary HPT hash group search disable)

We still maintain a per-VM default LPCR value in kvm->arch.lpcr, which
contains bits relating to memory management, i.e. the Virtualized
Partition Memory (VPM) bits and the bits relating to guest real mode.
When this default value is updated, the update needs to be propagated
to the per-vcore values, so we add a kvmppc_update_lpcr() helper to do
that.

The VRSAVE register value for a vcpu is accessible through the

Paul Mackerras 93b0f4dc29 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Implement timebase offset for guests
This allows guests to have a different timebase origin from the host.
This is needed for migration, where a guest can migrate from one host
to another and the two hosts might have a different timebase origin.
However, the timebase seen by the guest must not go backwards, and
should go forwards only by a small amount corresponding to the time
taken for the migration.

Therefore this provides a new per-vcpu value accessed via the one_reg
interface using the new KVM_REG_PPC_TB_OFFSET identifier.  This value
defaults to 0 and is not modified by KVM.  On entering the guest, this
value is added onto the timebase, and on exiting the guest, it is
subtracted from the timebase.

This is only supported for recent POWER hardware which has the TBU40
(timebase upper 40 bits) register.  Writing to the TBU40 register only
alters the upper 40 bits of the timebase, leaving the lower 24 bits
unchanged.  This provides a way to modify the timebase for guest
migration without disturbing the synchronization of the timebase
registers across CPU cores.  The kernel rounds up the value given
to a multiple of 2^24.

Timebase values stored in KVM structures (struct kvm_vcpu, struct
kvmppc_vcore, etc.) are stored as host timebase values.  The timebase
values in the dispatch trace log need to be guest timebase values,
however, since that is read directly by the guest.  This moves the
setting of vcpu->arch.dec_expires on guest exit to a point after we
have restored the host timebase so that vcpu->arch.dec_expires is a
host timebase value.

Michael Neuling 3b7834743f KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Reserve POWER8 space in get/set_one_reg
This reserves space in get/set_one_reg ioctl for the extra guest state
needed for POWER8.  It doesn't implement these at all, it just reserves
them so that the ABI is defined now.

A few things to note here:

- This add *a lot* state for transactional memory.  TM suspend mode,
  this is unavoidable, you can't simply roll back all transactions and
  store only the checkpointed state.  I've added this all to
  get/set_one_reg (including GPRs) rather than creating a new ioctl
  which returns a struct kvm_regs like KVM_GET_REGS does.  This means we
  if we need to extract the TM state, we are going to need a bucket load
  of IOCTLs.  Hopefully most of the time this will not be needed as we
  can look at the MSR to see if TM is active and only grab them when
  needed.  If this becomes a bottle neck in future we can add another
  ioctl to grab all this state in one go.

- The TM state is offset by 0x80000000.

- For TM, I've done away with VMX and FP and created a single 64x128 bit
  VSX register space.

- I've left a space of 1 (at 0x9c) since Paulus needs to add a value
  which applies to POWER7 as well.

Paolo Bonzini 2f303b74a6 KVM: Convert kvm_lock back to non-raw spinlock
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:

Paul Mackerras 5975a2e095 KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add API for in-kernel XICS emulation
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.

of the XICS interrupt presentation controllers (ICPs) via the
KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG interface.  Since there is one ICP per vcpu, we
simply define a new 64-bit register in the ONE_REG space for the ICP
state.  The state includes the CPU priority setting, the pending IPI
priority, and the priority and source number of any pending external
interrupt.

Michael Ellerman 8e591cb720 KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add infrastructure to implement kernel-side RTAS calls
For pseries machine emulation, in order to move the interrupt
controller code to the kernel, we need to intercept some RTAS
calls in the kernel itself.  This adds an infrastructure to allow
in-kernel handlers to be registered for RTAS services by name.
A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN, then allows userspace to
associate token values with those service names.  Then, when the
guest requests an RTAS service with one of those token values, it
will be handled by the relevant in-kernel handler rather than being
passed up to userspace as at present.

Enabling this capability connects the vcpu to the designated in-kernel
MPIC.  Using explicit connections between vcpus and irqchips allows
for flexibility, but the main benefit at the moment is that it
simplifies the code -- KVM doesn't need vm-global state to remember
which MPIC object is associated with this vm, and it doesn't need to
care about ordering between irqchip creation and vcpu creation.

Scott Wood 852b6d57dc kvm: add device control API
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.

Bharat Bhushan 78accda4f8 KVM: PPC: Added one_reg interface for timer registers
If userspace wants to change some specific bits of TSR
(timer status register) then it uses GET/SET_SREGS ioctl interface.
So the steps will be:
      i)   user-space will make get ioctl,
      ii)  change TSR in userspace
      iii) then make set ioctl.
It can happen that TSR gets changed by kernel after step i) and
before step iii).

To avoid this we have added below one_reg ioctls for oring and clearing
specific bits in TSR. This patch adds one registerface for:
     1) setting specific bit in TSR (timer status register)
     2) clearing specific bit in TSR (timer status register)
     3) setting/getting the TCR register. There are cases where we want to only
        change TCR and not TSR. Although we can uses SREGS without
        KVM_SREGS_E_UPDATE_TSR flag but I think one reg is better. I am open
        if someone feels we should use SREGS only here.
     4) getting/setting TSR register

Christoffer Dall 3401d54696 KVM: ARM: Introduce KVM_ARM_SET_DEVICE_ADDR ioctl
On ARM some bits are specific to the model being emulated for the guest and
user space needs a way to tell the kernel about those bits.  An example is mmio
device base addresses, where KVM must know the base address for a given device
to properly emulate mmio accesses within a certain address range or directly
map a device with virtualiation extensions into the guest address space.

We make this API ARM-specific as we haven't yet reached a consensus for a
generic API for all KVM architectures that will allow us to do something like
this.

Takuya Yoshikawa 75d61fbcf5 KVM: set_memory_region: Disallow changing read-only attribute later
As Xiao pointed out, there are a few problems with it:
 - 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.

Christoffer Dall c27581ed32 KVM: ARM: Demux CCSIDR in the userspace API
The Cache Size Selection Register (CSSELR) selects the current Cache
Size ID Register (CCSIDR).  You write which cache you are interested
in to CSSELR, and read the information out of CCSIDR.

Which cache numbers are valid is known by reading the Cache Level ID
Register (CLIDR).

To export this state to userspace, we add a KVM_REG_ARM_DEMUX
numberspace (17), which uses 8 bits to represent which register is
being demultiplexed (0 for CCSIDR), and the lower 8 bits to represent
this demultiplexing (in our case, the CSSELR value, which is 4 bits).

The following three ioctls are implemented:
 -  KVM_GET_REG_LIST
 -  KVM_GET_ONE_REG
 -  KVM_SET_ONE_REG

Now we have a table for all the cp15 registers, we can drive a generic
API.

The register IDs carry the following encoding:

ARM registers are mapped using the lower 32 bits.  The upper 16 of that
is the register group type, or coprocessor number:

ARM 32-bit CP15 registers have the following id bit patterns:
  0x4002 0000 000F <zero:1> <crn:4> <crm:4> <opc1:4> <opc2:3>

ARM 64-bit CP15 registers have the following id bit patterns:
  0x4003 0000 000F <zero:1> <zero:4> <crm:4> <opc1:4> <zero:3>

For futureproofing, we need to tell QEMU about the CP15 registers the
host lets the guest access.

It will need this information to restore a current guest on a future
CPU or perhaps a future KVM which allow some of these to be changed.

We use a separate table for these, as they're only for the userspace API.

Christoffer Dall 86ce85352f KVM: ARM: Inject IRQs and FIQs from userspace
All interrupt injection is now based on the VM ioctl KVM_IRQ_LINE.  This
works semantically well for the GIC as we in fact raise/lower a line on
a machine component (the gic).  The IOCTL uses the follwing struct.

struct kvm_irq_level {
	union {
		__u32 irq;     /* GSI */
		__s32 status;  /* not used for KVM_IRQ_LEVEL */
	};
	__u32 level;           /* 0 or 1 */
};

ARM can signal an interrupt either at the CPU level, or at the in-kernel irqchip
(GIC), and for in-kernel irqchip can tell the GIC to use PPIs designated for
specific cpus.  The irq field is interpreted like this:

  bits:  | 31 ... 24 | 23  ... 16 | 15    ...    0 |
  field: | irq_type  | vcpu_index |   irq_number   |

The irq_type field has the following values:
- irq_type[0]: out-of-kernel GIC: irq_number 0 is IRQ, irq_number 1 is FIQ
- irq_type[1]: in-kernel GIC: SPI, irq_number between 32 and 1019 (incl.)
               (the vcpu_index field is ignored)
- irq_type[2]: in-kernel GIC: PPI, irq_number between 16 and 31 (incl.)

The irq_number thus corresponds to the irq ID in as in the GICv2 specs.

This is documented in Documentation/kvm/api.txt.

Paul Mackerras a2932923cc KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a method for userspace to read and write the HPT
A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor.  Reads on
this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes
create and/or remove entries in the HPT.  There is a new capability,
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl.  The ioctl
takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to
read out and a set of flags.  The flags indicate whether the user is
intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries
or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in
the first doubleword).

This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for
live migration.  Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information
about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs).  When the first pass reaches the
end of the HPT, it returns from the read.  Subsequent reads only return
information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read.
A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last
read finished will return 0 bytes.

The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the
invalid entries.  Each block of data starts with a header that indicates
the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of
valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of
invalid entries following those valid entries.  The valid entries, 16
bytes each, follow the header.  The invalid entries are not explicitly
represented.

Paul Mackerras 55b665b026 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a way for userspace to get/set per-vCPU areas
The PAPR paravirtualization interface lets guests register three
different types of per-vCPU buffer areas in its memory for communication
with the hypervisor.  These are called virtual processor areas (VPAs).
Currently the hypercalls to register and unregister VPAs are handled
by KVM in the kernel, and userspace has no way to know about or save
and restore these registrations across a migration.

This adds "register" codes for these three areas that userspace can
use with the KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG ioctls to see what addresses have
been registered, and to register or unregister them.  This will be
needed for guest hibernation and migration, and is also needed so
that userspace can unregister them on reset (otherwise we corrupt
guest memory after reboot by writing to the VPAs registered by the
previous kernel).

The "register" for the VPA is a 64-bit value containing the address,
since the length of the VPA is fixed.  The "registers" for the SLB
shadow buffer and dispatch trace log (DTL) are 128 bits long,
consisting of the guest physical address in the high (first) 64 bits
and the length in the low 64 bits.

This also fixes a bug where we were calling init_vpa unconditionally,
leading to an oops when unregistering the VPA.

Paul Mackerras a8bd19ef4d KVM: PPC: Book3S: Get/set guest FP regs using the GET/SET_ONE_REG interface
This enables userspace to get and set all the guest floating-point
state using the KVM_[GS]ET_ONE_REG ioctls.  The floating-point state
includes all of the traditional floating-point registers and the
FPSCR (floating point status/control register), all the VMX/Altivec
vector registers and the VSCR (vector status/control register), and
on POWER7, the vector-scalar registers (note that each FP register
is the high-order half of the corresponding VSR).

Most of these are implemented in common Book 3S code, except for VSX
on POWER7.  Because HV and PR differ in how they store the FP and VSX
registers on POWER7, the code for these cases is not common.  On POWER7,
the FP registers are the upper halves of the VSX registers vsr0 - vsr31.
PR KVM stores vsr0 - vsr31 in two halves, with the upper halves in the
arch.fpr[] array and the lower halves in the arch.vsr[] array, whereas
HV KVM on POWER7 stores the whole VSX register in arch.vsr[].

This enables userspace to get and set various SPRs (special-purpose
registers) using the KVM_[GS]ET_ONE_REG ioctls.  With this, userspace
can get and set all the SPRs that are part of the guest state, either
through the KVM_[GS]ET_REGS ioctls, the KVM_[GS]ET_SREGS ioctls, or
the KVM_[GS]ET_ONE_REG ioctls.

The SPRs that are added here are:

- DABR:  Data address breakpoint register
- DSCR:  Data stream control register
- PURR:  Processor utilization of resources register
- SPURR: Scaled PURR
- DAR:   Data address register
- DSISR: Data storage interrupt status register
- AMR:   Authority mask register
- UAMOR: User authority mask override register
- MMCR0, MMCR1, MMCRA: Performance monitor unit control registers
- PMC1..PMC8: Performance monitor unit counter registers

In order to reduce code duplication between PR and HV KVM code, this
moves the kvm_vcpu_ioctl_[gs]et_one_reg functions into book3s.c and
centralizes the copying between user and kernel space there.  The
registers that are handled differently between PR and HV, and those
that exist only in one flavor, are handled in kvmppc_[gs]et_one_reg()
functions that are specific to each flavor.

To emulate level triggered interrupts, add a resample option to
KVM_IRQFD.  When specified, a new resamplefd is provided that notifies
the user when the irqchip has been resampled by the VM.  This may, for
instance, indicate an EOI.  Also in this mode, posting of an interrupt
through an irqfd only asserts the interrupt.  On resampling, the
interrupt is automatically de-asserted prior to user notification.
This enables level triggered interrupts to be posted and re-enabled
from vfio with no userspace intervention.

All resampling irqfds can make use of a single irq source ID, so we
reserve a new one for this interface.

In current code, if we map a readonly memory space from host to guest
and the page is not currently mapped in the host, we will get a fault
pfn and async is not allowed, then the vm will crash

We introduce readonly memory region to map ROM/ROMD to the guest, read access
is happy for readonly memslot, write access on readonly memslot will cause
KVM_EXIT_MMIO exit

Paul Mackerras 32fad281c0 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make the guest hash table size configurable
This adds a new ioctl to enable userspace to control the size of the guest
hashed page table (HPT) and to clear it out when resetting the guest.
The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl is a VM ioctl and takes as its parameter
a pointer to a u32 containing the desired order of the HPT (log base 2
of the size in bytes), which is updated on successful return to the
actual order of the HPT which was allocated.

There must be no vcpus running at the time of this ioctl.  To enforce
this, we now keep a count of the number of vcpus running in
kvm->arch.vcpus_running.

If the ioctl is called when a HPT has already been allocated, we don't
reallocate the HPT but just clear it out.  We first clear the
kvm->arch.rma_setup_done flag, which has two effects: (a) since we hold
the kvm->lock mutex, it will prevent any vcpus from starting to run until
we're done, and (b) it means that the first vcpu to run after we're done
will re-establish the VRMA if necessary.

If userspace doesn't call this ioctl before running the first vcpu, the
kernel will allocate a default-sized HPT at that point.  We do it then
rather than when creating the VM, as the code did previously, so that
userspace has a chance to do the ioctl if it wants.

When allocating the HPT, we can allocate either from the kernel page
allocator, or from the preallocated pool.  If userspace is asking for
a different size from the preallocated HPTs, we first try to allocate
using the kernel page allocator.  Then we try to allocate from the
preallocated pool, and then if that fails, we try allocating decreasing
sizes from the kernel page allocator, down to the minimum size allowed
(256kB).  Note that the kernel page allocator limits allocations to
1 << CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER pages, which by default corresponds to
16MB (on 64-bit powerpc, at least).

Jan Kiszka b6ddf05ff6 KVM: x86: Run PIT work in own kthread
We can't run PIT IRQ injection work in the interrupt context of the host
timer. This would allow the user to influence the handler complexity by
asking for a broadcast to a large number of VCPUs. Therefore, this work
was pushed into workqueue context in 9d244caf2e. However, this prevents
prioritizing the PIT injection over other task as workqueues share
kernel threads.

This replaces the workqueue with a kthread worker and gives that thread
a name in the format "kvm-pit/<owner-process-pid>". That allows to
identify and adjust the kthread priority according to the VM process
parameters.

Currently, MSI messages can only be injected to in-kernel irqchips by
defining a corresponding IRQ route for each message. This is not only
unhandy if the MSI messages are generated "on the fly" by user space,
IRQ routes are a limited resource that user space has to manage
carefully.

By providing a direct injection path, we can both avoid using up limited

PCI 2.3 allows to generically disable IRQ sources at device level. This
enables us to share legacy IRQs of such devices with other host devices
when passing them to a guest.

The new IRQ sharing feature introduced here is optional, user space has
to request it explicitly. Moreover, user space can inform us about its
view of PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE so that we can avoid unmasking the
interrupt and signaling it if the guest masked it via the virtualized
PCI config space.

Alexander Graf e24ed81fed KVM: PPC: Add generic single register ioctls
Right now we transfer a static struct every time we want to get or set
registers. Unfortunately, over time we realize that there are more of
these than we thought of before and the extensibility and flexibility of
transferring a full struct every time is limited.

So this is a new approach to the problem. With these new ioctls, we can
get and set a single register that is identified by an ID. This allows for
very precise and limited transmittal of data. When we later realize that
it's a better idea to shove over multiple registers at once, we can reuse
most of the infrastructure and simply implement a GET_MANY_REGS / SET_MANY_REGS
interface.

We also provide two 64bit flags fields (architecture specific), that will

This patch allows the user to fault in pages on a virtual cpus
address space for user controlled virtual machines. Typically this
is superfluous because userspace can just create a mapping and
let the kernel's page fault logic take are of it. There is one
exception: SIE won't start if the lowcore is not present. Normally
the kernel takes care of this [handle_validity() in
arch/s390/kvm/intercept.c] but since the kernel does not handle
intercepts for user controlled virtual machines, userspace needs to
be able to handle this condition.

valid for kernel virtual machines that are controlled by userspace.
Each virtual cpu has its individual address space in this mode of
operation, and each address space is backed by the gmap
implementation just like the address space for regular KVM guests.
KVM_S390_UCAS_MAP allows to map a part of the user's virtual address
space to the vcpu. Starting offset and length in both the user and
the vcpu address space need to be aligned to 1M.
KVM_S390_UCAS_UNMAP can be used to unmap a range of memory from a
virtual cpu in a similar way.

Carsten Otte e08b963716 KVM: s390: add parameter for KVM_CREATE_VM
This patch introduces a new config option for user controlled kernel
virtual machines. It introduces a parameter to KVM_CREATE_VM that
allows to set bits that alter the capabilities of the newly created
virtual machine.
The parameter is passed to kvm_arch_init_vm for all architectures.
The only valid modifier bit for now is KVM_VM_S390_UCONTROL.
This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges and creates a user controlled
virtual machine on s390 architectures.

Jan Kiszka 4d25a066b6 KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuid
Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set
unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants.

This is broken in several ways:
 - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC
   deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break
 - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline
   timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet;
   breaking it
 - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail.

Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace.
Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee
will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.

Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

Alex Williamson 3d27e23b17 KVM: Device assignment permission checks
Only allow KVM device assignment to attach to devices which:

 - Are not bridges
 - Have BAR resources (assume others are special devices)
 - The user has permissions to use

Assigning a bridge is a configuration error, it's not supported, and
typically doesn't result in the behavior the user is expecting anyway.
Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that
also don't have host drivers.  We don't want users to hold such devices
captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu
domain.  We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user
has access to the PCI sysfs resource files.  By default a normal user
will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication
that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.

The patch raises the hard limit of VCPU count to 254.

This will allow developers to easily work on scalability
and will allow users to test high VCPU setups easily without
patching the kernel.

To prevent possible issues with current setups, KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS
now returns the recommended VCPU limit (which is still 64) - this
should be a safe value for everybody, while a new KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS
returns the hard limit which is now 254.

Rusty Russell 3c3ed482dc lguest: Simplify device initialization.
We used to notify the Host every time we updated a device's status.  However,
it only really needs to know when we're resetting the device, or failed to
initialize it, or when we've finished our feature negotiation.

In particular, we used to wait for VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK in the
status byte before starting the device service threads.  But this
corresponds to the successful finish of device initialization, which
might (like virtio_blk's partition scanning) use the device.  So we
had a hack, if they used the device before we expected we started the
threads anyway.

Now we hook into the finalize_features hook in the Guest: at that
point we tell the Launcher that it can rely on the features we have
acked.  On the Launcher side, we look at the status at that point, and
start servicing the device.

Glauber Costa 9ddabbe72e KVM: KVM Steal time guest/host interface
To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest information
about how much time was spent running other processes outside the VM.
This is per-vcpu, and using the kvmclock structure for that is an abuse
we decided not to make.

In this patchset, I am introducing a new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, that
holds the memory area address containing information about steal time

This patch contains the headers for it. I am keeping it separate to facilitate
backports to people who wants to backport the kernel part but not the
hypervisor, or the other way around.

Paul Mackerras aa04b4cc5b 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.

Paul Mackerras 371fefd6f2 KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use SMT processor modes
This lifts the restriction that book3s_hv guests can only run one
hardware thread per core, and allows them to use up to 4 threads
per core on POWER7.  The host still has to run single-threaded.

This capability is advertised to qemu through a new KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT
capability.  The return value of the ioctl querying this capability
is the number of vcpus per virtual CPU core (vcore), currently 4.

To use this, the host kernel should be booted with all threads
active, and then all the secondary threads should be offlined.
This will put the secondary threads into nap mode.  KVM will then
wake them from nap mode and use them for running guest code (while
they are still offline).  To wake the secondary threads, we send
them an IPI using a new xics_wake_cpu() function, implemented in
arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/icp-native.c.  In other words, at this stage
we assume that the platform has a XICS interrupt controller and
we are using icp-native.c to drive it.  Since the woken thread will
need to acknowledge and clear the IPI, we also export the base
physical address of the XICS registers using kvmppc_set_xics_phys()
for use in the low-level KVM book3s code.

When a vcpu is created, it is assigned to a virtual CPU core.
The vcore number is obtained by dividing the vcpu number by the
number of threads per core in the host.  This number is exported
to userspace via the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability.  If qemu wishes
to run the guest in single-threaded mode, it should make all vcpu
numbers be multiples of the number of threads per core.

We distinguish three states of a vcpu: runnable (i.e., ready to execute
the guest), blocked (that is, idle), and busy in host.  We currently
implement a policy that the vcore can run only when all its threads
are runnable or blocked.  This way, if a vcpu needs to execute elsewhere
in the kernel or in qemu, it can do so without being starved of CPU
by the other vcpus.

When a vcore starts to run, it executes in the context of one of the
vcpu threads.  The other vcpu threads all go to sleep and stay asleep
until something happens requiring the vcpu thread to return to qemu,
or to wake up to run the vcore (this can happen when another vcpu
thread goes from busy in host state to blocked).

It can happen that a vcpu goes from blocked to runnable state (e.g.
because of an interrupt), and the vcore it belongs to is already
running.  In that case it can start to run immediately as long as
the none of the vcpus in the vcore have started to exit the guest.
We send the next free thread in the vcore an IPI to get it to start
to execute the guest.  It synchronizes with the other threads via
the vcore->entry_exit_count field to make sure that it doesn't go
into the guest if the other vcpus are exiting by the time that it
is ready to actually enter the guest.

Note that there is no fixed relationship between the hardware thread
number and the vcpu number.  Hardware threads are assigned to vcpus
as they become runnable, so we will always use the lower-numbered
hardware threads in preference to higher-numbered threads if not all
the vcpus in the vcore are runnable, regardless of which vcpus are
runnable.
