This patch adds code that performs transparent switch to Extended SCA on addition of 65th VCPU in a VM. Disposal of ESCA is added too. The entier ESCA functionality, however, is still not enabled. The enablement will be provided in a separate patch. This patch also uses read/write lock protection of SCA and its subfields for possible disposal at the BSCA-to-ESCA transition. While only Basic SCA needs such a protection (for the swap), any SCA access is now guarded. Signed-off-by:

This patch updates the routines (sca_*) to provide transparent access to and manipulation on the data for both Basic and Extended SCA in use. The kvm.arch.sca is generalized to (void *) to handle BSCA/ESCA cases. Also the kvm.arch.use_esca flag is provided. The actual functionality is kept the same. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds new structures and updates some existing ones to provide the base for Extended SCA functionality. The old sca_* structures were renamed to bsca_* to keep things uniform. The access to fields of SIGP controls were turned into bitfields instead of hardcoded bitmasks. Signed-off-by:

Let's rewrite this function to better reflect how we actually handle exit_code. By dropping out early we can save a few cycles. This especially speeds up sie exits caused by host irqs. Also, let's move the special -EOPNOTSUPP for intercepts to the place where it belongs and convert it to -EREMOTE. Reviewed-by:

KVM creates debugfs files to export VM statistics to userland. To be able to remove them on kvm exit it tracks the files' dentries. Since their parent directory is also tracked and since each parent direntry knows its children we can easily remove them by using debugfs_remove_recursive(kvm_debugfs_dir). Therefore we don't need the extra tracking in the kvm_stats_debugfs_item anymore. Signed-off-by:

As kvm_mmu_get_page() was changed so that every parent pointer would not get into the sp->parent_ptes chain before the entry pointed to by it was set properly, we can use the for_each_rmap_spte macro instead of pte_list_walk(). Signed-off-by:
-
Takuya Yoshikawa authored
Every time kvm_mmu_get_page() is called with a non-NULL parent_pte argument, link_shadow_page() follows that to set the parent entry so that the new mapping will point to the returned page table. Moving parent_pte handling there allows to clean up the code because parent_pte is passed to kvm_mmu_get_page() just for mark_unsync() and mmu_page_add_parent_pte(). In addition, the patch avoids calling mark_unsync() for other parents in the sp->parent_ptes chain than the newly added parent_pte, because they have been there since before the current page fault handling started.

Make kvm_mmu_alloc_page() do just what its name tells to do, and remove the extra allocation error check and zero-initialization of parent_ptes: shadow page headers allocated by kmem_cache_zalloc() are always in the per-VCPU pools. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

is_rmap_spte(), originally named is_rmap_pte(), was introduced when the simple reverse mapping was implemented by commit cd4a4e53 ("[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Implement simple reverse mapping"). At that point, its role was clear and only rmap_add() and rmap_remove() were using it to select sptes that need to be reverse-mapped. Independently of that, is_shadow_present_pte() was first introduced by commit c7addb90 ("KVM: Allow not-present guest page faults to bypass kvm") to do bypass_guest_pf optimization, which does not exist any more. These two seem to have changed their roles somewhat, and is_rmap_spte() just calls is_shadow_present_pte() now. Since using both of them without clear distinction just makes the code confusing, remove is_rmap_spte(). Signed-off-by:

mmu_set_spte()'s code is based on the assumption that the emulate parameter has a valid pointer value if set_spte() returns true and write_fault is not zero. In other cases, emulate may be NULL, so a NULL-check is needed. Stop passing emulate pointer and make mmu_set_spte() return the emulate value instead to clean up this complex interface. Prefetch functions can just throw away the return value. Signed-off-by:

Both __mmu_unsync_walk() and mmu_pages_clear_parents() have three line code which clears a bit in the unsync child bitmap; the former places it inside a loop block and uses a few goto statements to jump to it. A new helper function, clear_unsync_child_bit(), makes the code cleaner. Signed-off-by:

Commit 7a1638ce ("nEPT: Redefine EPT-specific link_shadow_page()", 2013-08-05) says: Since nEPT doesn't support A/D bit, we should not set those bit when building the shadow page table. but this is not necessary. Even though nEPT doesn't support A/D bits, and hence the vmcs12 EPT pointer will never enable them, we always use them for shadow page tables if available (see construct_eptp in vmx.c). So we can set the A/D bits freely in the shadow page table. This patch hence basically reverts commit 7a1638ce.

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 Signed-off-by:

The decision on whether to use hardware APIC virtualization used to be taken globally, based on the availability of the feature in the CPU and the value of a module parameter. However, under certain circumstances we want to control it on per-vcpu basis. In particular, when the userspace activates HyperV synthetic interrupt controller (SynIC), APICv has to be disabled as it's incompatible with SynIC auto-EOI behavior. To achieve that, introduce 'apicv_active' flag on struct kvm_vcpu_arch, and kvm_vcpu_deactivate_apicv() function to turn APICv off. The flag is initialized based on the module parameter and CPU capability, and consulted whenever an APICv-specific action is performed. Signed-off-by:

The function to determine if the vector is handled by ioapic used to rely on the fact that only ioapic-handled vectors were set up to cause vmexits when virtual apic was in use. We're going to break this assumption when introducing Hyper-V synthetic interrupts: they may need to cause vmexits too. To achieve that, introduce a new bitmap dedicated specifically for ioapic-handled vectors, and populate EOI exit bitmap from it for now. Signed-off-by:

Actually kvm_arch_irq_routing_update() should be kvm_arch_post_irq_routing_update() as it's called at the end of irq routing update. This renaming frees kvm_arch_irq_routing_update function name. kvm_arch_irq_routing_update() weak function which will be used to update mappings for arch-specific irq routing entries (in particular, the upcoming Hyper-V synthetic interrupts).

This patch removes the vpid check when emulating nested invvpid instruction of type all-contexts invalidation. The existing code is incorrect because: (1) According to Intel SDM Vol 3, Section "INVVPID - Invalidate Translations Based on VPID", invvpid instruction does not check vpid in the invvpid descriptor when its type is all-contexts invalidation. (2) According to the same document, invvpid of type all-contexts invalidation does not require there is an active VMCS, so/and get_vmcs12() in the existing code may result in a NULL-pointer dereference. In practice, it can crash both KVM itself and L1 hypervisors that use invvpid (e.g. Xen). Signed-off-by:Haozhong Zhang <haozhong.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

If we call __kvm_hyp_panic while a guest context is active, we call __restore_sysregs before acquiring the system register values for the panic, in the process throwing away the PAR_EL1 value at the point of the panic. This patch modifies __kvm_hyp_panic to stash the PAR_EL1 value prior to restoring host register values, enabling us to report the original values at the point of the panic. Acked-by:

We were probing the physial distributor state for the active state of a HW virtual IRQ, because we had seen evidence that the LR state was not cleared when the guest deactivated a virtual interrupted. However, this issue turned out to be a software bug in the GIC, which was solved by: 84aab5e68c2a5e1e18d81ae8308c3ce25d501b29 (KVM: arm/arm64: arch_timer: Preserve physical dist. active state on LR.active, 2015-11-24) Therefore, get rid of the complexities and just look at the LR.

We were incorrectly removing the active state from the physical distributor on the timer interrupt when the timer output level was deasserted. We shouldn't be doing this without considering the virtual interrupt's active state, because the architecture requires that when an LR has the HW bit set and the pending or active bits set, then the physical interrupt must also have the corresponding bits set. This addresses an issue where we have been observing an inconsistency between the LR state and the physical distributor state where the LR state was active and the physical distributor was not active, which shouldn't happen.
