commit 4d47555a80495657161a7e71ec3014ff2021e450 upstream.
We use the cpu id provided by userspace as array index here. Thus we
clearly need to check it first. Ooops.

commit 9ff4cfb3fcfd48b49fdd9be7381b3be340853aa4 ([S390] kvm-390: Let
kernel exit SIE instruction on work) fixed a problem of commit
commit cd3b70f5d4d82f85d1e1d6e822f38ae098cf7c72 ([S390] virtualization
aware cpu measurement) but uncovered another one.
If a kvm guest accesses guest real memory that doesnt exist, the
page fault handler calls the sie hook, which then rewrites
the return psw from sie_inst to either sie_exit or sie_reenter.
On return, the page fault handler will then detect the wrong access
as a kernel fault causing a kernel oops in sie_reenter or sie_exit.
We have to add these two addresses to the exception table to allow
graceful exits.

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com>
This patch fixes the sie exit on interrupts. The low level
interrupt handler returns to the PSW address in pt_regs and not
to the PSW address in the lowcore.
Without this fix a cpu bound guest might never leave guest state
since the host interrupt handler would blindly return to the
SIE instruction, even on need_resched and friends.

IA64 support forces us to abstract the allocation of the kvm structure.
But instead of mixing this up with arch-specific initialization and
doing the same on destruction, split both steps. This allows to move
generic destruction calls into generic code.
It also fixes error clean-up on failures of kvm_create_vm for IA64.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

kvm_handle_sie_intercept uses a jump table to get the intercept handler

the intercept_funcs jump table was defined to contain (0x48 >> 2) entries,
but we only checked for code > 0x48 which would cause an off-by-one
array overflow if code == 0x48.
Use the compiler and ARRAY_SIZE to automatically set the limits.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)
common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.
What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.
How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.
Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.
Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use
Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

Introduce user_mode to replace the two variables switch_amode and
s390_noexec. There are three valid combinations of the old values:
1) switch_amode == 0 && s390_noexec == 0
2) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 0
3) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 1
They get replaced by
1) user_mode == HOME_SPACE_MODE
2) user_mode == PRIMARY_SPACE_MODE
3) user_mode == SECONDARY_SPACE_MODE
The new kernel parameter user_mode=[primary,secondary,home] lets
you choose the address space mode the user space processes should
use. In addition the CONFIG_S390_SWITCH_AMODE config option
is removed.

This patch corrects the checking of the new address for the prefix register.
On s390, the prefix register is used to address the cpu's lowcore (address
0...8k). This check is supposed to verify that the memory is readable and
present.
copy_from_guest is a helper function, that can be used to read from guest
memory. It applies prefixing, adds the start address of the guest memory in
user, and then calls copy_from_user. Previous code was obviously broken for
two reasons:
- prefixing should not be applied here. The current prefix register is
going to be updated soon, and the address we're looking for will be
0..8k after we've updated the register
- we're adding the guest origin (gmsor) twice: once in subject code
and once in copy_from_guest
With kuli, we did not hit this problem because (a) we were lucky with
previous prefix register content, and (b) our guest memory was mmaped
very low into user address space.

This patch moves s390 processor status word into the base kvm_run
struct and keeps it up-to date on all userspace exits.
The userspace ABI is broken by this, however there are no applications
in the wild using this. A capability check is provided so users can
verify the updated API exists.

X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).
Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.
To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.
So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

This patch relocates the variables kvm-s390 uses to track guest mem addr/size.
As discussed dropping the variables at struct kvm_arch level allows to use the
common vcpu->request based mechanism to reload guest memory if e.g. changes
via set_memory_region.
The kick mechanism introduced in this series is used to ensure running vcpus
leave guest state to catch the update.

If signal pending is true we exit without updating kvm_run, userspace
currently just does nothing and jumps to kvm_run again.
Since we did not set an exit_reason we might end up with a random one
(whatever was the last exit). Therefore it was possible to e.g. jump to
the psw position the last real interruption set.
Setting the INTR exit reason ensures that no old psw data is swapped
in on reentry.
