The KVM_MAX_VCPUS define provides the maximum number of vCPUs per guest, and
also the upper limit for vCPU ids. This is okay for all archs except PowerPC
which can have higher ids, depending on the cpu/core/thread topology. In the
worst case (single threaded guest, host with 8 threads per core), it limits
the maximum number of vCPUS to KVM_MAX_VCPUS / 8.
This patch separates the vCPU numbering from the total number of vCPUs, with
the introduction of KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID, as the maximal valid value for vCPU ids
plus one.
The corresponding KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID allows userspace to validate vCPU ids
before passing them to KVM_CREATE_VCPU.
This patch only implements KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID with a specific value for PowerPC.
Other archs continue to return KVM_MAX_VCPUS instead.

Introduce a FLIC operation for clearing I/O interrupts for a subchannel.
Rationale: According to the platform specification, pending I/O
interruption requests have to be revoked in certain situations. For
instance, according to the Principles of Operation (page 17-27), a
subchannel put into the installed parameters initialized state is in the
same state as after an I/O system reset (just parameters possibly changed).
This implies that any I/O interrupts for that subchannel are no longer
pending (as I/O system resets clear I/O interrupts). Therefore, we need an
interface to clear pending I/O interrupts.

FLIC behavior deviates from the API documentation in reporting EINVAL
instead of ENXIO for KVM_SET_DEVICE_ATTR/KVM_GET_DEVICE_ATTR when the group
or attribute is unknown/unsupported. Unfortunately this can not be fixed

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"One of the largest releases for KVM... Hardly any generic
changes, but lots of architecture-specific updates.
ARM:
- VHE support so that we can run the kernel at EL2 on ARMv8.1 systems
- PMU support for guests
- 32bit world switch rewritten in C
- various optimizations to the vgic save/restore code.
PPC:
- enabled KVM-VFIO integration ("VFIO device")
- optimizations to speed up IPIs between vcpus
- in-kernel handling of IOMMU hypercalls
- support for dynamic DMA windows (DDW).
s390:
- provide the floating point registers via sync regs;
- separated instruction vs. data accesses
- dirty log improvements for huge guests
- bugfixes and documentation improvements.
x86:
- Hyper-V VMBus hypercall userspace exit
- alternative implementation of lowest-priority interrupts using
vector hashing (for better VT-d posted interrupt support)
- fixed guest debugging with nested virtualizations
- improved interrupt tracking in the in-kernel IOAPIC
- generic infrastructure for tracking writes to guest
memory - currently its only use is to speedup the legacy shadow
paging (pre-EPT) case, but in the future it will be used for
virtual GPUs as well
- much cleanup (LAPIC, kvmclock, MMU, PIT), including ubsan fixes"

Yes, all of these are needed. :) This is admittedly a bit odd, but
kvm-unit-tests access.flat tests this if you run it with "-cpu host"
and of course ept=0.
KVM runs the guest with CR0.WP=1, so it must handle supervisor writes
specially when pte.u=1/pte.w=0/CR0.WP=0. Such writes cause a fault
when U=1 and W=0 in the SPTE, but they must succeed because CR0.WP=0.
When KVM gets the fault, it sets U=0 and W=1 in the shadow PTE and
restarts execution. This will still cause a user write to fault, while
supervisor writes will succeed. User reads will fault spuriously now,
and KVM will then flip U and W again in the SPTE (U=1, W=0). User reads
will be enabled and supervisor writes disabled, going back to the
originary situation where supervisor writes fault spuriously.
When SMEP is in effect, however, U=0 will enable kernel execution of
this page. To avoid this, KVM also sets NX=1 in the shadow PTE together
with U=0. If the guest has not enabled NX, the result is a continuous
stream of page faults due to the NX bit being reserved.
The fix is to force EFER.NX=1 even if the CPU is taking care of the EFER
switch. (All machines with SMEP have the CPU_LOAD_IA32_EFER vm-entry
control, so they do not use user-return notifiers for EFER---if they did,
EFER.NX would be forced to the same value as the host).
There is another bug in the reserved bit check, which I've split to a
separate patch for easier application to stable kernels.

kvm_lpage_info->write_count is used to detect if the large page mapping
for the gfn on the specified level is allowed, rename it to disallow_lpage
to reflect its purpose, also we rename has_wrprotected_page() to
mmu_gfn_lpage_is_disallowed() to make the code more clearer
Later we will extend this mechanism for page tracking: if the gfn is
tracked then large mapping for that gfn on any level is not allowed.
The new name is more straightforward

The existing KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE only supports 32bit windows which is not
enough for directly mapped windows as the guest can get more than 4GB.
This adds KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE_64 ioctl and advertises it
via KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_64 capability. The table size is checked against
the locked memory limit.
Since 64bit windows are to support Dynamic DMA windows (DDW), let's add
@bus_offset and @page_shift which are also required by DDW.

This adds real and virtual mode handlers for the H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and
H_STUFF_TCE hypercalls for user space emulated devices such as IBMVIO
devices or emulated PCI. These calls allow adding multiple entries
(up to 512) into the TCE table in one call which saves time on
transition between kernel and user space.
The current implementation of kvmppc_h_stuff_tce() allows it to be
executed in both real and virtual modes so there is one helper.
The kvmppc_rm_h_put_tce_indirect() needs to translate the guest address
to the host address and since the translation is different, there are
2 helpers - one for each mode.
This implements the KVM_CAP_PPC_MULTITCE capability. When present,
the kernel will try handling H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and H_STUFF_TCE if these
are enabled by the userspace via KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL.
If they can not be handled by the kernel, they are passed on to
the user space. The user space still has to have an implementation
for these.
Both HV and PR-syle KVM are supported.

While the userspace interface requests the maximum size the gmap code
expects to get a maximum address.
This error resulted in bigger page tables than necessary for some guest
sizes, e.g. a 2GB guest used 3 levels instead of 2.
At the same time we introduce KVM_S390_NO_MEM_LIMIT, which allows in a
bright future that a guest spans the complete 64 bit address space.
We also switch to TASK_MAX_SIZE for the initial memory size, this is a
cosmetic change as the previous size also resulted in a 4 level pagetable
creation.

At some call sites of rmap_get_first() and rmap_get_next(), BUG_ON is
placed right after the call to detect unrelated sptes which must not be
found in the reverse-mapping list.
Move this check in rmap_get_first/next() so that all call sites, not
just the users of the for_each_rmap_spte() macro, will be checked the
same way.
One thing to keep in mind is that kvm_mmu_unlink_parents() also uses
rmap_get_first() to handle parent sptes. The change will not break it
because parent sptes are present, at least until drop_parent_pte()
actually unlinks them, and not mmio-sptes.

SynIC (synthetic interrupt controller) is a lapic extension,
which is controlled via MSRs and maintains for each vCPU
- 16 synthetic interrupt "lines" (SINT's); each can be configured to
trigger a specific interrupt vector optionally with auto-EOI
semantics
- a message page in the guest memory with 16 256-byte per-SINT message
slots
- an event flag page in the guest memory with 16 2048-bit per-SINT
event flag areas
The host triggers a SINT whenever it delivers a new message to the
corresponding slot or flips an event flag bit in the corresponding area.
The guest informs the host that it can try delivering a message by
explicitly asserting EOI in lapic or writing to End-Of-Message (EOM)
MSR.
The userspace (qemu) triggers interrupts and receives EOM notifications
via irqfd with resampler; for that, a GSI is allocated for each
configured SINT, and irq_routing api is extended to support GSI-SINT
mapping.
Changes v4:
* added activation of SynIC by vcpu KVM_ENABLE_CAP
* added per SynIC active flag
* added deactivation of APICv upon SynIC activation
Changes v3:
* added KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC and KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_HV_SINT notes into
docs
Changes v2:
* do not use posted interrupts for Hyper-V SynIC AutoEOI vectors
* add Hyper-V SynIC vectors into EOI exit bitmap
* Hyper-V SyniIC SINT msr write logic simplified

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"First batch of KVM changes for 4.4.
s390:
A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time handling.
PPC:
Mostly bug fixes.
ARM:
No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:
- a number of fixes for the arch-timer
- introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers
- a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite
for IRQ forwarding)
- some tracepoint improvements
- a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers
- some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state
x86:
Quite a few changes:
- support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
interrupts directly into vCPUs). This introduces a new
component (in virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.
The same infrastructure will be used for ARM interrupt
forwarding as well.
- more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic
interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5. These will let
KVM expose Hyper-V devices.
- nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for
vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster
- for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
clflushopt, clwb, pcommit
- support for "split irqchip", i.e. LAPIC in kernel +
IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
the hypervisor
- obligatory smattering of SMM fixes
- on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten

In order to enable userspace PIC support, the userspace PIC needs to
be able to inject local interrupts even when the APICs are in the
kernel.
KVM_INTERRUPT now supports sending local interrupts to an APIC when
APICs are in the kernel.
The ready_for_interrupt_request flag is now only set when the CPU/APIC
will immediately accept and inject an interrupt (i.e. APIC has not
masked the PIC).
When the PIC wishes to initiate an INTA cycle with, say, CPU0, it
kicks CPU0 out of the guest, and renedezvous with CPU0 once it arrives
in userspace.
When the CPU/APIC unmasks the PIC, a KVM_EXIT_IRQ_WINDOW_OPEN is
triggered, so that userspace has a chance to inject a PIC interrupt
if it had been pending.
Overall, this design can lead to a small number of spurious userspace
renedezvous. In particular, whenever the PIC transistions from low to
high while it is masked and whenever the PIC becomes unmasked while
it is low.
Note: this does not buffer more than one local interrupt in the
kernel, so the VMM needs to enter the guest in order to complete
interrupt injection before injecting an additional interrupt.
Compiles for x86.
Can pass the KVM Unit Tests.

In order to support a userspace IOAPIC interacting with an in kernel
APIC, the EOI exit bitmaps need to be configurable.
If the IOAPIC is in userspace (i.e. the irqchip has been split), the
EOI exit bitmaps will be set whenever the GSI Routes are configured.
In particular, for the low MSI routes are reservable for userspace
IOAPICs. For these MSI routes, the EOI Exit bit corresponding to the
destination vector of the route will be set for the destination VCPU.
The intention is for the userspace IOAPICs to use the reservable MSI
routes to inject interrupts into the guest.
This is a slight abuse of the notion of an MSI Route, given that MSIs
classically bypass the IOAPIC. It might be worthwhile to add an
additional route type to improve clarity.
Compile tested for Intel x86.

Adds KVM_EXIT_IOAPIC_EOI which allows the kernel to EOI
level-triggered IOAPIC interrupts.
Uses a per VCPU exit bitmap to decide whether or not the IOAPIC needs
to be informed (which is identical to the EOI_EXIT_BITMAP field used
by modern x86 processors, but can also be used to elide kvm IOAPIC EOI
exits on older processors).
[Note: A prototype using ResampleFDs found that decoupling the EOI
from the VCPU's thread made it possible for the VCPU to not see a
recent EOI after reentering the guest. This does not match real
hardware.]
Compile tested for Intel x86.

Sending of notification is done by exiting vcpu to user space
if KVM_REQ_HV_CRASH is enabled for vcpu. At exit to user space
the kvm_run structure contains system_event with type
KVM_SYSTEM_EVENT_CRASH to notify about guest crash occurred.

This adds support for SW breakpoints inserted by userspace.
We do this by trapping all guest software debug exceptions to the
hypervisor (MDCR_EL2.TDE). The exit handler sets an exit reason of
KVM_EXIT_DEBUG with the kvm_debug_exit_arch structure holding the
exception syndrome information.
It will be up to userspace to extract the PC (via GET_ONE_REG) and
determine if the debug event was for a breakpoint it inserted. If not
userspace will need to re-inject the correct exception restart the
hypervisor to deliver the debug exception to the guest.
Any other guest software debug exception (e.g. single step or HW
assisted breakpoints) will cause an error and the VM to be killed. This
is addressed by later patches which add support for the other debug
types.

This commit adds a stub function to support the KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG
ioctl. Any unsupported flag will return -EINVAL. For now, only
KVM_GUESTDBG_ENABLE is supported, although it won't have any effects.

This is now very simple to do. The only interesting part is a simple
trick to find the right memslot in gfn_to_rmap, retrieving the address
space from the spte role word. The same trick is used in the auditing
code.
The comment on top of union kvm_mmu_page_role has been stale forever,
so remove it. Speaking of stale code, remove pad_for_nice_hex_output
too: it was splitting the "access" bitfield across two bytes and thus
had effectively turned into pad_for_ugly_hex_output.

Only two ioctls have to be modified; the address space id is
placed in the higher 16 bits of their slot id argument.
As of this patch, no architecture defines more than one
address space; x86 will be the first.

This patch includes changes to the external API for SMM support.
Userspace can predicate the availability of the new fields and
ioctls on a new capability, KVM_CAP_X86_SMM, which is added at the end

KVM may turn a user page to a kernel page when kernel writes a readonly
user page if CR0.WP = 1. This shadow page entry will be reused after
SMAP is enabled so that kernel is allowed to access this user page
Fix it by setting SMAP && !CR0.WP into shadow page's role and reset mmu
once CR4.SMAP is updated

Introducing KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS for disabling x86 quirks that were previous
created in order to overcome QEMU issues. Those issue were mostly result of
invalid VM BIOS. Currently there are two quirks that can be disabled:
1. KVM_QUIRK_LINT0_REENABLED - LINT0 was enabled after boot
2. KVM_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED - CD and NW are cleared after boot
These two issues are already resolved in recent releases of QEMU, and would
therefore be disabled by QEMU.

Some PowerNV systems include a hardware random-number generator.
This HWRNG is present on POWER7+ and POWER8 chips and is capable of
generating one 64-bit random number every microsecond. The random
numbers are produced by sampling a set of 64 unstable high-frequency
oscillators and are almost completely entropic.
PAPR defines an H_RANDOM hypercall which guests can use to obtain one
64-bit random sample from the HWRNG. This adds a real-mode
implementation of the H_RANDOM hypercall. This hypercall was
implemented in real mode because the latency of reading the HWRNG is
generally small compared to the latency of a guest exit and entry for
all the threads in the same virtual core.
Userspace can detect the presence of the HWRNG and the H_RANDOM
implementation by querying the KVM_CAP_PPC_HWRNG capability. The
H_RANDOM hypercall implementation will only be invoked when the guest
does an H_RANDOM hypercall if userspace first enables the in-kernel
H_RANDOM implementation using the KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL capability.
