This removes the code that was added to enable HV KVM to work on PPC970 processors. The PPC970 is an old CPU that doesn't support virtualizing guest memory. Removing PPC970 support also lets us remove the code for allocating and managing contiguous real-mode areas, the code for the !kvm->arch.using_mmu_notifiers case, the code for pinning pages of guest memory when first accessed and keeping track of which pages have been pinned, and the code for handling H_ENTER hypercalls in virtual mode. Book3S HV KVM is now supported only on POWER7 and POWER8 processors. The KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA capability now always returns 0.

This patch adds trace points in the guest entry and exit code and also for exceptions handled by the host in kernel mode - hypercalls and page faults. The new events are added to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events under a new subsystem called kvm_hv.

Currently the calculations of stolen time for PPC Book3S HV guests uses fields in both the vcpu struct and the kvmppc_vcore struct. The fields in the kvmppc_vcore struct are protected by the vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock of the vcpu that has taken responsibility for running the virtual core. This works correctly but confuses lockdep, because it sees that the code takes the tbacct_lock for a vcpu in kvmppc_remove_runnable() and then takes another vcpu's tbacct_lock in vcore_stolen_time(), and it thinks there is a possibility of deadlock, causing it to print reports like this: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 3.18.0-rc7-kvm-00016-g8db4bc6 #89 Not tainted --------------------------------------------- qemu-system-ppc/6188 is trying to acquire lock: (&(&vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock)->rlock){......}, at: [<d00000000ecb1fe8>] .vcore_stolen_time+0x48/0xd0 [kvm_hv] but task is already holding lock: (&(&vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock)->rlock){......}, at: [<d00000000ecb25a0>] .kvmppc_remove_runnable.part.3+0x30/0xd0 [kvm_hv] other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(&(&vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock)->rlock); lock(&(&vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** May be due to missing lock nesting notation 3 locks held by qemu-system-ppc/6188: #0: (&vcpu->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<d00000000eb93f98>] .vcpu_load+0x28/0xe0 [kvm] #1: (&(&vcore->lock)->rlock){+.+...}, at: [<d00000000ecb41b0>] .kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv+0x530/0x1530 [kvm_hv] #2: (&(&vcpu->arch.tbacct_lock)->rlock){......}, at: [<d00000000ecb25a0>] .kvmppc_remove_runnable.part.3+0x30/0xd0 [kvm_hv] stack backtrace: CPU: 40 PID: 6188 Comm: qemu-system-ppc Not tainted 3.18.0-rc7-kvm-00016-g8db4bc6 #89 Call Trace: [c000000b2754f3f0] [c000000000b31b6c] .dump_stack+0x88/0xb4 (unreliable) [c000000b2754f470] [c0000000000faeb8] .__lock_acquire+0x1878/0x2190 [c000000b2754f600] [c0000000000fbf0c] .lock_acquire+0xcc/0x1a0 [c000000b2754f6d0] [c000000000b2954c] ._raw_spin_lock_irq+0x4c/0x70 [c000000b2754f760] [d00000000ecb1fe8] .vcore_stolen_time+0x48/0xd0 [kvm_hv] [c000000b2754f7f0] [d00000000ecb25b4] .kvmppc_remove_runnable.part.3+0x44/0xd0 [kvm_hv] [c000000b2754f880] [d00000000ecb43ec] .kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv+0x76c/0x1530 [kvm_hv] [c000000b2754f9f0] [d00000000eb9f46c] .kvmppc_vcpu_run+0x2c/0x40 [kvm] [c000000b2754fa60] [d00000000eb9c9a4] .kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x54/0x160 [kvm] [c000000b2754faf0] [d00000000eb94538] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x498/0x760 [kvm] [c000000b2754fcb0] [c000000000267eb4] .do_vfs_ioctl+0x444/0x770 [c000000b2754fd90] [c0000000002682a4] .SyS_ioctl+0xc4/0xe0 [c000000b2754fe30] [c0000000000092e4] syscall_exit+0x0/0x98 In order to make the locking easier to analyse, we change the code to use a spinlock in the kvmppc_vcore struct to protect the stolen_tb and preempt_tb fields.

The kvmppc_vcore_blocked() code does not check for the wait condition after putting the process on the wait queue. This means that it is possible for an external interrupt to become pending, but the vcpu to remain asleep until the next decrementer interrupt. The fix is to make one last check for pending exceptions and ceded state before calling schedule().

This fixes some inaccuracies in the state machine for the virtualized ICP when implementing the H_IPI hcall (Set_MFFR and related states): 1. The old code wipes out any pending interrupts when the new MFRR is more favored than the CPPR but less favored than a pending interrupt (by always modifying xisr and the pending_pri). This can cause us to lose a pending external interrupt. The correct code here is to only modify the pending_pri and xisr in the ICP if the MFRR is equal to or more favored than the current pending pri (since in this case, it is guaranteed that that there cannot be a pending external interrupt). The code changes are required in both kvmppc_rm_h_ipi and kvmppc_h_ipi. 2. Again, in both kvmppc_rm_h_ipi and kvmppc_h_ipi, there is a check for whether MFRR is being made less favored AND further if new MFFR is also less favored than the current CPPR, we check for any resends pending in the ICP. These checks look like they are designed to cover the case where if the MFRR is being made less favored, we opportunistically trigger a resend of any interrupts that had been previously rejected. Although, this is not a state described by PAPR, this is an action we actually need to do especially if the CPPR is already at 0xFF. Because in this case, the resend bit will stay on until another ICP state change which may be a long time coming and the interrupt stays pending until then. The current code which checks for MFRR < CPPR is broken when CPPR is 0xFF since it will not get triggered in that case. Ideally, we would want to do a resend only if prio(pending_interrupt) < mfrr && prio(pending_interrupt) < cppr where pending interrupt is the one that was rejected. But we don't have the priority of the pending interrupt state saved, so we simply trigger a resend whenever the MFRR is made less favored. 3. In kvmppc_rm_h_ipi, where we save state to pass resends to the virtual mode, we also need to save the ICP whose need_resend we reset since this does not need to be my ICP (vcpu->arch.icp) as is incorrectly assumed by the current code. A new field rm_resend_icp is added to the kvmppc_icp structure for this purpose.

Testing with KSM active in the host showed occasional corruption of guest memory. Typically a page that should have contained zeroes would contain values that look like the contents of a user process stack (values such as 0x0000_3fff_xxxx_xxx). Code inspection in kvmppc_h_protect revealed that there was a race condition with the possibility of granting write access to a page which is read-only in the host page tables. The code attempts to keep the host mapping read-only if the host userspace PTE is read-only, but if that PTE had been temporarily made invalid for any reason, the read-only check would not trigger and the host HPTE could end up read-write. Examination of the guest HPT in the failure situation revealed that there were indeed shared pages which should have been read-only that were mapped read-write. To close this race, we don't let a page go from being read-only to being read-write, as far as the real HPTE mapping the page is concerned (the guest view can go to read-write, but the actual mapping stays read-only). When the guest tries to write to the page, we take an HDSI and let kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault take care of providing a writable HPTE for the page. This eliminates the occasional corruption of shared pages that was previously seen with KSM active. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

When we get an HMI (hypervisor maintenance interrupt) while in a guest, we see that guest enters into paused state. The reason is, in kvmppc_handle_exit_hv it falls through default path and returns to host instead of resuming guest. This causes guest to enter into paused state. HMI is a hypervisor only interrupt and it is safe to resume the guest since the host has handled it already. This patch adds a switch case to resume the guest. Without this patch we see guest entering into paused state with following console messages: [ 3003.329351] Severe Hypervisor Maintenance interrupt [Recovered] [ 3003.329356] Error detail: Timer facility experienced an error [ 3003.329359] HMER: 0840000000000000 [ 3003.329360] TFMR: 4a12000980a84000 [ 3003.329366] vcpu c0000007c35094c0 (40): [ 3003.329368] pc = c0000000000c2ba0 msr = 8000000000009032 trap = e60 [ 3003.329370] r 0 = c00000000021ddc0 r16 = 0000000000000046 [ 3003.329372] r 1 = c00000007a02bbd0 r17 = 00003ffff27d5d98 [ 3003.329375] r 2 = c0000000010980b8 r18 = 00001fffffc9a0b0 [ 3003.329377] r 3 = c00000000142d6b8 r19 = c00000000142d6b8 [ 3003.329379] r 4 = 0000000000000002 r20 = 0000000000000000 [ 3003.329381] r 5 = c00000000524a110 r21 = 0000000000000000 [ 3003.329383] r 6 = 0000000000000001 r22 = 0000000000000000 [ 3003.329386] r 7 = 0000000000000000 r23 = c00000000524a110 [ 3003.329388] r 8 = 0000000000000000 r24 = 0000000000000001 [ 3003.329391] r 9 = 0000000000000001 r25 = c00000007c31da38 [ 3003.329393] r10 = c0000000014280b8 r26 = 0000000000000002 [ 3003.329395] r11 = 746f6f6c2f68656c r27 = c00000000524a110 [ 3003.329397] r12 = 0000000028004484 r28 = c00000007c31da38 [ 3003.329399] r13 = c00000000fe01400 r29 = 0000000000000002 [ 3003.329401] r14 = 0000000000000046 r30 = c000000003011e00 [ 3003.329403] r15 = ffffffffffffffba r31 = 0000000000000002 [ 3003.329404] ctr = c00000000041a670 lr = c000000000272520 [ 3003.329405] srr0 = c00000000007e8d8 srr1 = 9000000000001002 [ 3003.329406] sprg0 = 0000000000000000 sprg1 = c00000000fe01400 [ 3003.329407] sprg2 = c00000000fe01400 sprg3 = 0000000000000005 [ 3003.329408] cr = 48004482 xer = 2000000000000000 dsisr = 42000000 [ 3003.329409] dar = 0000010015020048 [ 3003.329410] fault dar = 0000010015020048 dsisr = 42000000 [ 3003.329411] SLB (8 entries): [ 3003.329412] ESID = c000000008000000 VSID = 40016e7779000510 [ 3003.329413] ESID = d000000008000001 VSID = 400142add1000510 [ 3003.329414] ESID = f000000008000004 VSID = 4000eb1a81000510 [ 3003.329415] ESID = 00001f000800000b VSID = 40004fda0a000d90 [ 3003.329416] ESID = 00003f000800000c VSID = 400039f536000d90 [ 3003.329417] ESID = 000000001800000d VSID = 0001251b35150d90 [ 3003.329417] ESID = 000001000800000e VSID = 4001e46090000d90 [ 3003.329418] ESID = d000080008000019 VSID = 40013d349c000400 [ 3003.329419] lpcr = c048800001847001 sdr1 = 0000001b19000006 last_inst = ffffffff [ 3003.329421] trap=0xe60 | pc=0xc0000000000c2ba0 | msr=0x8000000000009032 [ 3003.329524] Severe Hypervisor Maintenance interrupt [Recovered] [ 3003.329526] Error detail: Timer facility experienced an error [ 3003.329527] HMER: 0840000000000000 [ 3003.329527] TFMR: 4a12000980a94000 [ 3006.359786] Severe Hypervisor Maintenance interrupt [Recovered] [ 3006.359792] Error detail: Timer facility experienced an error [ 3006.359795] HMER: 0840000000000000 [ 3006.359797] TFMR: 4a12000980a84000 Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- 2 guest2 running 3 guest3 paused 4 guest4 running Signed-off-by: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

The B (segment size) field in the RB operand for the tlbie instruction is two bits, which we get from the top two bits of the first doubleword of the HPT entry to be invalidated. These bits go in bits 8 and 9 of the RB operand (bits 54 and 55 in IBM bit numbering). The compute_tlbie_rb() function gets these bits as v >> (62 - 8), which is not correct as it will bring in the top 10 bits, not just the top two. These extra bits could corrupt the AP, AVAL and L fields in the RB value. To fix this we shift right 62 bits and then shift left 8 bits, so we only get the two bits of the B field. The first doubleword of the HPT entry is under the control of the guest kernel. In fact, Linux guests will always put zeroes in bits 54 -- 61 (IBM bits 2 -- 9), but we should not rely on guests doing this.

When injecting an IRQ, we only document which IRQ priority (which translates to IRQ type) gets injected. However, when reading traces you don't necessarily have all the numbers in your head to know which IRQ really is meant. This patch converts the IRQ number field to a symbolic name that is in sync with the respective define. That way it's a lot easier for readers to figure out what interrupt gets injected.

Currently we use a mixture of atomic/non-atomic bitops and the local_int spin lock to protect the pending_irqs bitmap and interrupt payload data. We need to use atomic bitops for the pending_irqs bitmap everywhere and in addition acquire the local_int lock where interrupt data needs to be protected.

The cpu address of a source cpu (responsible for an external irq) is only to be stored if bit 6 of the ext irq code is set. If bit 6 is not set, it is to be zeroed out. The special external irq code used for virtio and pfault uses the cpu addr as a parameter field. As bit 6 is set, this implementation is correct.

We currently track the pid of the task that runs the VCPU in vcpu_load. If a yield to that VCPU is triggered while the PID of the wrong thread is active, the wrong thread might receive a yield, but this will most likely not help the executing thread at all. Instead, if we only track the pid on the KVM_RUN ioctl, there are two possibilities: 1) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is holding a mutex that the VCPU thread is waiting for. In this case, the VCPU thread is not runnable, but we also do not do a wrong yield. 2) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is sleeping, or doing something that does not block the VCPU thread. In this case, the VCPU thread can receive the directed yield correctly.

kvm_enter_guest() has to be called with preemption disabled and will set PF_VCPU. Current code takes PF_VCPU as a hint that the VCPU thread is running and therefore needs no yield. However, the check on PF_VCPU is wrong on s390, where preemption has to stay enabled in order to correctly process page faults. Thus, s390 reenables preemption and starts to execute the guest. The thread might be scheduled out between kvm_enter_guest() and kvm_exit_guest(), resulting in PF_VCPU being set but not being run. When this happens, the opportunity for directed yield is missed. However, this check is done already in kvm_vcpu_on_spin before calling kvm_vcpu_yield_loop: if (!ACCESS_ONCE(vcpu->preempted)) continue; so the check on PF_VCPU is superfluous in general, and this patch removes it.

Current linear search doesn't scale well when large amount of memslots is used and looked up slot is not in the beginning memslots array. Taking in account that memslots don't overlap, it's possible to switch sorting order of memslots array from 'npages' to 'base_gfn' and use binary search for memslot lookup by GFN. As result of switching to binary search lookup times are reduced with large amount of memslots. Following is a table of search_memslot() cycles during WS2008R2 guest boot. boot, boot + ~10 min mostly same of using it, slot lookup randomized lookup max average average cycles cycles cycles 13 slots : 1450 28 30 13 slots : 1400 30 40 binary search 117 slots : 13000 30 460 117 slots : 2000 35 180 binary search Signed-off-by: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

In typical guest boot workload only 2-3 memslots are used extensively, and at that it's mostly the same memslot lookup operation. Adding LRU cache improves average lookup time from 46 to 28 cycles (~40%) for this workload. Signed-off-by: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

While fixing an x2apic bug, 17d68b76 KVM: x86: fix guest-initiated crash with x2apic (CVE-2013-6376) we've made only one cluster available. This means that the amount of logically addressible x2APICs was reduced to 16 and VCPUs kept overwriting themselves in that region, so even the first cluster wasn't set up correctly. This patch extends x2APIC support back to the logical_map's limit, and keeps the CVE fixed as messages for non-present APICs are dropped.

Physical mode can't address more than one APIC, but lowest-prio is allowed, so we just reuse our paths. SDM 10.6.2.1 Physical Destination: Also, for any non-broadcast IPI or I/O subsystem initiated interrupt with lowest priority delivery mode, software must ensure that APICs defined in the interrupt address are present and enabled to receive interrupts. We could warn on top of that. Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
