The comm page which is mapped into the guest kernel address space at
0x0 has the unfortunate side effect of allowing guest kernel NULL
pointer dereferences to succeed. The only constraint on this address is
that it must be within 32KiB of 0x0, so that single lw/sw instructions
(which have 16-bit signed offset fields) can be used to access it, using
the zero register as a base.
So lets move the comm page as high as possible within that constraint so
that 0x0 can be left unmapped, at least for page sizes < 32KiB.

Allow up to 6 KVM guest KScratch registers to be enabled and accessed
via the KVM guest register API and from the guest itself (the fallback
reading and writing of commpage registers is sufficient for KScratch
registers to work as expected).
User mode can expose the registers by setting the appropriate bits of
the guest Config4.KScrExist field. KScratch registers that aren't usable
won't be writeable via the KVM Ioctl API.

We need to use kvm_mips_guest_can_have_fpu() when deciding which
registers to list with KVM_GET_REG_LIST, however it causes warnings with
preemption since it uses cpu_has_fpu. KVM is only really supported on
CPUs which have symmetric FPUs, so switch to raw_cpu_has_fpu to avoid
the warning.

Make the implementation of KVM_GET_REG_LIST more dynamic so that only
the subset of registers actually available can be exposed to user mode.
This is important for VZ where some of the guest register state may not
be possible to prevent the guest from accessing, therefore the user
process may need to be aware of the state even if it doesn't understand
what the state is for.
This also allows different MIPS KVM implementations to provide different
registers to one another, by way of new num_regs(vcpu) and
copy_reg_indices(vcpu, indices) callback functions, currently just
stubbed for trap & emulate.

The host kernel's exception vector base address is currently saved in
the VCPU structure at creation time, and restored on a guest exit.
However it doesn't change and can already be easily accessed from the
'ebase' variable (arch/mips/kernel/traps.c), so drop the host_ebase
member of kvm_vcpu_arch, export the 'ebase' variable to modules and load
from there instead.
This does result in a single extra instruction (lui) on the guest exit
path, but simplifies the code a bit and removes the redundant storage of
the host exception base address.
Credit for the idea goes to Cavium's VZ KVM implementation.

When faulting guest addresses are matched against guest segments with
the KVM_GUEST_KSEGX() macro, change the mask to 0xe0000000 so as to
include bit 31.
This is mainly for safety's sake, as it prevents a rogue BadVAddr in the
host kseg2/kseg3 segments (e.g. 0xC*******) after a TLB exception from
matching the guest kseg0 segment (e.g. 0x4*******), triggering an
internal KVM error instead of allowing the corresponding guest kseg0
page to be mapped into the host vmalloc space.
Such a rogue BadVAddr was observed to happen with the host MIPS kernel
running under QEMU with KVM built as a module, due to a not entirely
transparent optimisation in the QEMU TLB handling. This has already been
worked around properly in a previous commit.

Copy __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() into unmapped memory, so that we can never
get a TLB refill exception in it when KVM is built as a module.
This was observed to happen with the host MIPS kernel running under
QEMU, due to a not entirely transparent optimisation in the QEMU TLB
handling where TLB entries replaced with TLBWR are copied to a separate
part of the TLB array. Code in those pages continue to be executable,
but those mappings persist only until the next ASID switch, even if they
are marked global.
An ASID switch happens in __kvm_mips_vcpu_run() at exception level after
switching to the guest exception base. Subsequent TLB mapped kernel
instructions just prior to switching to the guest trigger a TLB refill
exception, which enters the guest exception handlers without updating
EPC. This appears as a guest triggered TLB refill on a host kernel
mapped (host KSeg2) address, which is not handled correctly as user
(guest) mode accesses to kernel (host) segments always generate address
error exceptions.

Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on
s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs
would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for
transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough.
This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests.
This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they
should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls.
For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but
known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating
interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered
by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the
woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll.
This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or
expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as
not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor,
we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though.
This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte
transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP
while still providing a proper speedup.
This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks
wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

Writing CP0_Compare clears the timer interrupt pending bit
(CP0_Cause.TI), but this wasn't being done atomically. If a timer
interrupt raced with the write of the guest CP0_Compare, the timer
interrupt could end up being pending even though the new CP0_Compare is
nowhere near CP0_Count.
We were already updating the hrtimer expiry with
kvm_mips_update_hrtimer(), which used both kvm_mips_freeze_hrtimer() and
kvm_mips_resume_hrtimer(). Close the race window by expanding out
kvm_mips_update_hrtimer(), and clearing CP0_Cause.TI and setting
CP0_Compare between the freeze and resume. Since the pending timer
interrupt should not be cleared when CP0_Compare is written via the KVM
user API, an ack argument is added to distinguish the source of the
write.

To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory,
PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into
userspace). This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings
to be the target of direct-i/o. It allows userspace to coordinate
DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory.
The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into
4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned
and dynamically mapped by a device driver. The pmem driver, after
mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via
devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus
page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type.
The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the
resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new
_PAGE_DEVMAP flag. Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys
off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active.
Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references
against the device driver established page mapping.
Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires
memory capacity to store the memmap array. Given the memmap array for a
large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a
mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory. The new
"struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables
arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page
allocator.
This patch (of 18):
The core has developed a need for a "pfn_t" type [1]. Move the existing
pfn_t in KVM to kvm_pfn_t [2].

Some times it is useful for architecture implementations of KVM to know
when the VCPU thread is about to block or when it comes back from
blocking (arm/arm64 needs to know this to properly implement timers, for
example).
Therefore provide a generic architecture callback function in line with
what we do elsewhere for KVM generic-arch interactions.

We observed some performance degradation on s390x with dynamic
halt polling. Until we can provide a proper fix, let's enable
halt_poll_ns as default only for supported architectures.
Architectures are now free to set their own halt_poll_ns
default value.

This new statistic can help diagnosing VCPUs that, for any reason,
trigger bad behavior of halt_poll_ns autotuning.
For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly
like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes
10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every
479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then
is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without
polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of
attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

Add guest exception handling for MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) floating
point exceptions and MSA disabled exceptions.
MSA floating point exceptions from the guest need passing to the guest
kernel, so for these a guest MSAFPE is emulated.
MSA disabled exceptions are normally handled by passing a reserved
instruction exception to the guest (because no guest MSA was supported),
but the hypervisor can now handle them if the guest has MSA by passing
an MSA disabled exception to the guest, or if the guest has MSA enabled
by transparently restoring the guest MSA context and enabling MSA and
the FPU.

Add base code for supporting the MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) in MIPS
KVM guests. MSA cannot yet be enabled in the guest, we're just laying
the groundwork.
As with the FPU, whether the guest's MSA context is loaded is stored in
another bit in the fpu_inuse vcpu member. This allows MSA to be disabled
when the guest disables it, but keeping the MSA context loaded so it
doesn't have to be reloaded if the guest re-enables it.
New assembly code is added for saving and restoring the MSA context,
restoring only the upper half of the MSA context (for if the FPU context
is already loaded) and for saving/clearing and restoring MSACSR (which
can itself cause an MSA FP exception depending on the value). The MSACSR
is restored before returning to the guest if MSA is already enabled, and
the existing FP exception die notifier is extended to catch the possible
MSA FP exception and step over the ctcmsa instruction.
The helper function kvm_own_msa() is added to enable MSA and restore
the MSA context if it isn't already loaded, which will be used in a
later patch when the guest attempts to use MSA for the first time and
triggers an MSA disabled exception.
The existing FPU helpers are extended to handle MSA. kvm_lose_fpu()
saves the full MSA context if it is loaded (which includes the FPU
context) and both kvm_lose_fpu() and kvm_drop_fpu() disable MSA.
kvm_own_fpu() also needs to lose any MSA context if FR=0, since there
would be a risk of getting reserved instruction exceptions if CU1 is
enabled and we later try and save the MSA context. We shouldn't usually
hit this case since it will be handled when emulating CU1 changes,
however there's nothing to stop the guest modifying the Status register
directly via the comm page, which will cause this case to get hit.

Add Config4 and Config5 co-processor 0 registers, and add capability to
write the Config1, Config3, Config4, and Config5 registers using the KVM
API.
Only supported bits can be written, to minimise the chances of the guest
being given a configuration from e.g. QEMU that is inconsistent with
that being emulated, and as such the handling is in trap_emul.c as it
may need to be different for VZ. Currently the only modification
permitted is to make Config4 and Config5 exist via the M bits, but other
bits will be added for FPU and MSA support in future patches.
Care should be taken by userland not to change bits without fully
handling the possible extra state that may then exist and which the
guest may begin to use and depend on.

Trap instructions are used by Linux to implement BUG_ON(), however KVM
doesn't pass trap exceptions on to the guest if they occur in guest
kernel mode, instead triggering an internal error "Exception Code: 13,
not yet handled". The guest kernel then doesn't get a chance to print
the usual BUG message and stack trace.
Implement handling of the trap exception so that it gets passed to the
guest and the user is left with a more useful log message.

Guest user mode can generate a guest MSA Disabled exception on an MSA
capable core by simply trying to execute an MSA instruction. Since this
exception is unknown to KVM it will be passed on to the guest kernel.
However guest Linux kernels prior to v3.15 do not set up an exception
handler for the MSA Disabled exception as they don't support any MSA
capable cores. This results in a guest OS panic.
Since an older processor ID may be being emulated, and MSA support is
not advertised to the guest, the correct behaviour is to generate a
Reserved Instruction exception in the guest kernel so it can send the
guest process an illegal instruction signal (SIGILL), as would happen
with a non-MSA-capable core.
Fix this as minimally as reasonably possible by preventing
kvm_mips_check_privilege() from relaying MSA Disabled exceptions from
guest user mode to the guest kernel, and handling the MSA Disabled
exception by emulating a Reserved Instruction exception in the guest,
via a new handle_msa_disabled() KVM callback.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.
