| * arm/arm64: KVM: Turn off vcpus on PSCI shutdown/rebootChristoffer Dall2014-12-131-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a vcpu calls SYSTEM_OFF or SYSTEM_RESET with PSCI v0.2, the vcpus should really be turned off for the VM adhering to the suggestions in the PSCI spec, and it's the sane thing to do. Also, clarify the behavior and expectations for exits to user space with the KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT case.

| * arm/arm64: KVM: Clarify KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ABIChristoffer Dall2014-12-131-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not clear that this ioctl can be called multiple times for a given vcpu. Userspace already does this, so clarify the ABI. Also specify that userspace is expected to always make secondary and subsequent calls to the ioctl with the same parameters for the VCPU as the initial call (which userspace also already does). Add code to check that userspace doesn't violate that ABI in the future, and move the kvm_vcpu_set_target() function which is currently duplicated between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions in guest.c to a common static function in arm.c, shared between both architectures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation of KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT is currently not doing what userspace expects, namely making sure that a vcpu which may have been turned off using PSCI is returned to its initial state, which would be powered on if userspace does not set the KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF flag.

This makes the documentation wrong, and no application ever written to use these capabilities has a chance to work correctly. The only way to detect support is to try, and test errno for ENOTTY. That's unfortunate, but we can't fix the past. Document the actual semantics, and drop the definitions from the exported header to make it easier for application developers to note and fix the bug.

* kvm: fix potentially corrupt mmio cacheDavid Matlack2014-09-031-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vcpu exits and memslot mutations can run concurrently as long as the vcpu does not aquire the slots mutex. Thus it is theoretically possible for memslots to change underneath a vcpu that is handling an exit. If we increment the memslot generation number again after synchronize_srcu_expedited(), vcpus can safely cache memslot generation without maintaining a single rcu_dereference through an entire vm exit. And much of the x86/kvm code does not maintain a single rcu_dereference of the current memslots during each exit. We can prevent the following case: vcpu (CPU 0) | thread (CPU 1) --------------------------------------------+-------------------------- 1 vm exit | 2 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) | 3 decide to cache something based on | old memslots | 4 | change memslots | (increments generation) 5 | synchronize_srcu(&kvm->srcu); 6 retrieve generation # from new memslots | 7 tag cache with new memslot generation | 8 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) | ... | <action based on cache occurs even | though the caching decision was based | on the old memslots> | ... | <action *continues* to occur until next | memslot generation change, which may | be never> | | By incrementing the generation after synchronizing with kvm->srcu readers, we ensure that the generation retrieved in (6) will become invalid soon after (8). Keeping the existing increment is not strictly necessary, but we do keep it and just move it for consistency from update_memslots to install_new_memslots. It invalidates old cached MMIOs immediately, instead of having to wait for the end of synchronize_srcu_expedited, which makes the code more clearly correct in case CPU 1 is preempted right after synchronize_srcu() returns. To avoid halving the generation space in SPTEs, always presume that the low bit of the generation is zero when reconstructing a generation number out of an SPTE. This effectively disables MMIO caching in SPTEs during the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited. Using the low bit this way is somewhat like a seqcount---where the protected thing is a cache, and instead of retrying we can simply punt if we observe the low bit to be 1.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately, the LPCR got defined as a 32-bit register in the one_reg interface. This is unfortunate because KVM allows userspace to control the DPFD (default prefetch depth) field, which is in the upper 32 bits. The result is that DPFD always get set to 0, which reduces performance in the guest. We can't just change KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR to be a 64-bit register ID, since that would break existing userspace binaries. Instead we define a new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id which is 64-bit. Userspace can still use the old KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR id, but it now only modifies those fields in the bottom 32 bits that userspace can modify (ILE, TC and AIL). If userspace uses the new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id, it can modify DPFD as well.

Each hcall can be individually enabled or disabled for in-kernel handling, except for H_RTAS. The exception for H_RTAS is because userspace can already control whether individual RTAS functions are handled in-kernel or not via the KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN ioctl, and because the numeric value for H_RTAS is out of the normal sequence of hcall numbers. Hcalls are enabled or disabled using the KVM_ENABLE_CAP ioctl for the KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL capability on the file descriptor for the VM. The args field of the struct kvm_enable_cap specifies the hcall number in args[0] and the enable/disable flag in args[1]; 0 means disable in-kernel handling (so that the hcall will always cause an exit to userspace) and 1 means enable. Enabling or disabling in-kernel handling of an hcall is effective across the whole VM. The ability for KVM_ENABLE_CAP to be used on a VM file descriptor on PowerPC is new, added by this commit. The KVM_CAP_ENABLE_CAP_VM capability advertises that this ability exists. When a VM is created, an initial set of hcalls are enabled for in-kernel handling. The set that is enabled is the set that have an in-kernel implementation at this point. Any new hcall implementations from this point onwards should not be added to the default set without a good reason. No distinction is made between real-mode and virtual-mode hcall implementations; the one setting controls them both.

This is necessary to avoid races in s390 SIGP/reset handling which happen because some SIGPs are handled in QEMU, while others are handled in the kernel. Together with the busy conditions as return value of SIGP races happen especially in areas like starting and stopping of CPUs. (For example, there is a program 'cpuplugd', that runs on several s390 distros which does automatic onlining and offlining on cpus.) As soon as the MPSTATE interface is used, user space takes complete control of the cpu states. Otherwise the kernel will use the old way. Therefore, the new kernel continues to work fine with old QEMUs.

Changes include: - a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB support and more - ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin) - initial POWER8 and little-endian host support - support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets - pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware - for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still, we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have always worked). And some optimizations too. The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (203 commits) KVM: add missing cleanup_srcu_struct KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Rework SLB switching code KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Use SLB entry 0 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix machine check delivery to guest KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Work around POWER8 performance monitor bugs KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make sure we don't miss dirty pages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix dirty map for hugepages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Put huge-page HPTEs in rmap chain for base address KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix check for running inside guest in global_invalidates() KVM: PPC: Book3S: Move KVM_REG_PPC_WORT to an unused register number KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add ONE_REG register names that were missed KVM: PPC: Add CAP to indicate hcall fixes KVM: PPC: MPIC: Reset IRQ source private members KVM: PPC: Graciously fail broken LE hypercalls PPC: ePAPR: Fix hypercall on LE guest KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Remove open coded make_dsisr in alignment handler KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Always use the saved DAR value PPC: KVM: Make NX bit available with magic page KVM: PPC: Disable NX for old magic page using guests KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: HV: Add mixed page-size support for guest ...

Since we can't fix those old kernels, try to detect whether the guest is sane or not. If not, just disable NX functionality in KVM so that old guests at least work at all. For newer guests, add a bit that we can set to keep NX functionality available. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This patch adds exit reason KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT for this purpose. We can also inform user space about the 'type' and architecture specific 'flags' of a system-level event using the kvm_run structure.

This has become problematic when supporting ARM guests on big-endian host systems with guests of both endianness types, because it is unclear how the data should be exported to user space. This should not break with existing implementations as all supported existing implementations of known user space applications (QEMU and kvmtools for virtio) only support default endianness of the architectures on the host side.
