Move vCPU thread creation and joining to common helper functions. This

threads are fully created before entering guest mode on any one
vCPU.

Copy perf_test_args to the guest during VM creation instead of relying on
the caller to do so at their leisure. Ideally, tests wouldn't even be
able to modify perf_test_args, i.e. they would have no motivation to do
the sync, but enforcing that is arguably a net negative for readability.
No functional change intended.
[Set wr_fract=1 by default and add helper to override it since the new

Fill the per-vCPU args when creating the perf_test VM instead of having
the caller do so. This helps ensure that any adjustments to the number
of pages (and thus vcpu_memory_bytes) are reflected in the per-VM args.
Automatically filling the per-vCPU args will also allow a future patch
to do the sync to the guest during creation.

The calculation to get the per-slot dirty bitmap was incorrect leading
to a buffer overrun. Fix it by splitting out the dirty bitmap into a

All selftests that support the backing_src option were printing their
own description of the flag and then calling backing_src_help() to dump
the list of available backing sources. Consolidate the flag printing in
backing_src_help() to align indentation, reduce duplicated strings, and
improve consistency across tests.
Note: Passing "-s" to backing_src_help is unnecessary since every test
uses the same flag. However I decided to keep it for code readability
at the call sites.
While here this opportunistically fixes the incorrectly interleaved
printing -x help message and list of backing source types in
dirty_log_perf_test.

perf_test_util is used to set up KVM selftests where vCPUs touch a
region of memory. The guest code is implemented in perf_test_util.c (not
the calling selftests). The guest code requires a 1 parameter, the
vcpuid, which has to be set by calling vcpu_args_set(vm, vcpu_id, 1,
vcpu_id).
Today all of the selftests that use perf_test_util are making this call.
Instead, perf_test_util should just do it. This will save some code but
more importantly prevents mistakes since totally non-obvious that this
needs to be called and failing to do so results in vCPUs not accessing
the right regions of memory.

Introduce a new option to dirty_log_perf_test: -x number_of_slots. This
causes the test to attempt to split the region of memory into the given
number of slots. If the region cannot be evenly divided, the test will
fail.
This allows testing with more than one slot and therefore measure how
performance scales with the number of memslots.

Disabling dirty logging is much more intestesting from a testing
perspective if the vCPUs are still running. This also excercises the
code-path in which collapsible SPTEs must be faulted back in at a higher
level after disabling dirty logging.

Add an option to overlap the ranges of memory each vCPU accesses instead
of partitioning them. This option will increase the probability of
multiple vCPUs faulting on the same page at the same time, and causing
interesting races, if there are bugs in the page fault handler or
elsewhere in the kernel.

The dirty log perf test will time verious dirty logging operations
(enabling dirty logging, dirtying memory, getting the dirty log,
clearing the dirty log, and disabling dirty logging) in order to
quantify dirty logging performance. This test can be used to inform
future performance improvements to KVM's dirty logging infrastructure.
This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel
Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4
dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32
demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64
demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4
demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32
All behaved as expected.
