Linus Torvalds 6be5ceb02e VM: add "vm_mmap()" helper function
This continues the theme started with vm_brk() and vm_munmap():
vm_mmap() does the same thing as do_mmap(), but additionally does the
required VM locking.

This uninlines (and rewrites it to be clearer) do_mmap(), which sadly
duplicates it in mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c.  But that way we don't have
to export our internal do_mmap_pgoff() function.

Some day we hopefully don't have to export do_mmap() either, if all
modular users can become the simpler vm_mmap() instead.  We're actually
very close to that already, with the notable exception of the (broken)
use in i810, and a couple of stragglers in binfmt_elf.

Avi Kivity 2225fd5604 KVM: VMX: Fix kvm_set_shared_msr() called in preemptible context
kvm_set_shared_msr() may not be called in preemptible context,
but vmx_set_msr() does so:

  BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-kvm/22713
  caller is kvm_set_shared_msr+0x32/0xa0 [kvm]
  Pid: 22713, comm: qemu-kvm Not tainted 3.4.0-rc3+ #39

   [<ffffffffa03a103b>] vmx_set_msr+0x28b/0x2d0 [kvm_intel]
   ...

Making kvm_set_shared_msr() work in preemptible is cleaner, but
it's used in the fast path.  Making two variants is overkill, so
this patch just disables preemption around the call.

Marcelo Tosatti 02626b6af5 KVM: x86: fix kvm_write_tsc() TSC matching thinko
kvm_write_tsc() converts from guest TSC to microseconds, not nanoseconds
as intended. The result is that the window for matching is 1000 seconds,
not 1 second.

Microsecond precision is enough for checking whether the TSC write delta
is within the heuristic values, so use it instead of nanoseconds.

Avi Kivity 9ee73970c0 KVM: VMX: Fix delayed load of shared MSRs
Shared MSRs (MSR_*STAR and related) are stored in both vmx->guest_msrs
and in the CPU registers, but vmx_set_msr() only updated memory. Prior
to 46199f33c2, this didn't matter, since we called vmx_load_host_state(),
which scheduled a vmx_save_host_state(), which re-synchronized the CPU
state, but now we don't, so the CPU state will not be synchronized until
the next exit to host userspace.  This mostly affects nested vmx workloads,
which play with these MSRs a lot.

Fix by loading the MSR eagerly.

The new IRQ sharing feature introduced here is optional, user space has
to request it explicitly. Moreover, user space can inform us about its
view of PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE so that we can avoid unmasking the
interrupt and signaling it if the guest masked it via the virtualized
PCI config space.

If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then

Fix by:
- ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called
- ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP

This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without
kvm->lock held.

Takuya Yoshikawa 6dbf79e716 KVM: Fix write protection race during dirty logging
This patch fixes a race introduced by:

  commit 95d4c16ce7
  KVM: Optimize dirty logging by rmap_write_protect()

During protecting pages for dirty logging, other threads may also try
to protect a page in mmu_sync_children() or kvm_mmu_get_page().

In such a case, because get_dirty_log releases mmu_lock before flushing
TLB's, the following race condition can happen:

  A (get_dirty_log)     B (another thread)

  lock(mmu_lock)
  clear pte.w
  unlock(mmu_lock)
                        lock(mmu_lock)
                        pte.w is already cleared
                        unlock(mmu_lock)
                        skip TLB flush
                        return
  ...
  TLB flush

Though thread B assumes the page has already been protected when it
returns, the remaining TLB entry will break that assumption.

This patch fixes this problem by making get_dirty_log hold the mmu_lock
until it flushes the TLB's.

Zachary Amsden 0dd6a6edb0 KVM: Dont mark TSC unstable due to S4 suspend
During a host suspend, TSC may go backwards, which KVM interprets
as an unstable TSC.  Technically, KVM should not be marking the
TSC unstable, which causes the TSC clocksource to go bad, but we
need to be adjusting the TSC offsets in such a case.

Dealing with this issue is a little tricky as the only place we
can reliably do it is before much of the timekeeping infrastructure
is up and running.  On top of this, we are not in a KVM thread
context, so we may not be able to safely access VCPU fields.
Instead, we compute our best known hardware offset at power-up and
stash it to be applied to all VCPUs when they actually start running.

Zachary Amsden 6f526ec538 KVM: Add last_host_tsc tracking back to KVM
The variable last_host_tsc was removed from upstream code.  I am adding
it back for two reasons.  First, it is unnecessary to use guest TSC
computation to conclude information about the host TSC.  The guest may
set the TSC backwards (this case handled by the previous patch), but
the computation of guest TSC (and fetching an MSR) is significanlty more
work and complexity than simply reading the hardware counter.  In addition,
we don't actually need the guest TSC for any part of the computation,
by always recomputing the offset, we can eliminate the need to deal with
the current offset and any scaling factors that may apply.

The second reason is that later on, we are going to be using the host
TSC value to restore TSC offsets after a host S4 suspend, so we need to
be reading the host values, not the guest values here.

Zachary Amsden b183aa580a KVM: Fix last_guest_tsc / tsc_offset semantics
The variable last_guest_tsc was being used as an ad-hoc indicator
that guest TSC has been initialized and recorded correctly.  However,
it may not have been, it could be that guest TSC has been set to some
large value, the back to a small value (by, say, a software reboot).

This defeats the logic and causes KVM to falsely assume that the
guest TSC has gone backwards, marking the host TSC unstable, which
is undesirable behavior.

In addition, rather than try to compute an offset adjustment for the
TSC on unstable platforms, just recompute the whole offset.  This
allows us to get rid of one callsite for adjust_tsc_offset, which
is problematic because the units it takes are in guest units, but
here, the computation was originally being done in host units.

Doing this, and also recording last_guest_tsc when the TSC is written
allow us to remove the tricky logic which depended on last_guest_tsc
being zero to indicate a reset of uninitialized value.

Instead, we now have the guarantee that the guest TSC offset is
always at least something which will get us last_guest_tsc.

Zachary Amsden 4dd7980b21 KVM: Leave TSC synchronization window open with each new sync
Currently, when the TSC is written by the guest, the variable
ns is updated to force the current write to appear to have taken
place at the time of the first write in this sync phase.  This
leaves a cliff at the end of the match window where updates will
fall of the end.  There are two scenarios where this can be a
problem in practe - first, on a system with a large number of
VCPUs, the sync period may last for an extended period of time.

The second way this can happen is if the VM reboots very rapidly
and we catch a VCPU TSC synchronization just around the edge.
We may be unaware of the reboot, and thus the first VCPU might
synchronize with an old set of the timer (at, say 0.97 seconds
ago, when first powered on).  The second VCPU can come in 0.04
seconds later to try to synchronize, but it misses the window
because it is just over the threshold.

Instead, stop doing this artificial setback of the ns variable
and just update it with every write of the TSC.

It may be observed that doing so causes values computed by
compute_guest_tsc to diverge slightly across CPUs - note that
the last_tsc_ns and last_tsc_write variable are used here, and
now they last_tsc_ns will be different for each VCPU, reflecting
the actual time of the update.

However, compute_guest_tsc is used only for guests which already
have TSC stability issues, and further, note that the previous
patch has caused last_tsc_write to be incremented by the difference
in nanoseconds, converted back into guest cycles.  As such, only
boundary rounding errors should be visible, which given the
resolution in nanoseconds, is going to only be a few cycles and
only visible in cross-CPU consistency tests.  The problem can be
fixed by adding a new set of variables to track the start offset
and start write value for the current sync cycle.

There are a few improvements that can be made to the TSC offset
matching code.  First, we don't need to call the 128-bit multiply
(especially on a constant number), the code works much nicer to
do computation in nanosecond units.

Second, the way everything is setup with software TSC rate scaling,
we currently have per-cpu rates.  Obviously this isn't too desirable
to use in practice, but if for some reason we do change the rate of
all VCPUs at runtime, then reset the TSCs, we will only want to
match offsets for VCPUs running at the same rate.

Finally, for the case where we have an unstable host TSC, but
rate scaling is being done in hardware, we should call the platform
code to compute the TSC offset, so the math is reorganized to recompute
the base instead, then transform the base into an offset using the
existing API.

Zachary Amsden cc578287e3 KVM: Infrastructure for software and hardware based TSC rate scaling
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz'
to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider
each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate.  Instead, there is new
logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether
it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by
common code.  This means we can simply query the virtual rate at
any point, which is needed for software rate scaling.

There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor
differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally
provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed.  Instead,
we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is
the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling
will be used.  The default is 250ppm, which is the half the
threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation.

In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can
kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than
hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available
yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software
implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

The spec says that during initialization "The edge sense circuit is
reset which means that following initialization an interrupt request
(IR) input must make a low-to-high transition to generate an interrupt",
but currently if edge triggered interrupt is in IRR it is delivered
after i8259 initialization.

If the guest programs an IPI with level=0 (de-assert) and trig_mode=0 (edge),
it is erroneously treated as INIT de-assert and ignored, but to quote the

Boris Ostrovsky 2b036c6b86 KVM: SVM: Add support for AMD's OSVW feature in guests
In some cases guests should not provide workarounds for errata even when the
physical processor is affected. For example, because of erratum 400 on family
10h processors a Linux guest will read an MSR (resulting in VMEXIT) before
going to idle in order to avoid getting stuck in a non-C0 state. This is not
necessary: HLT and IO instructions are intercepted and therefore there is no
reason for erratum 400 workaround in the guest.

This patch allows us to present a guest with certain errata as fixed,
regardless of the state of actual hardware.

This patch introduces a new config option for user controlled kernel
virtual machines. It introduces a parameter to KVM_CREATE_VM that
allows to set bits that alter the capabilities of the newly created
virtual machine.
The parameter is passed to kvm_arch_init_vm for all architectures.
The only valid modifier bit for now is KVM_VM_S390_UCONTROL.
This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges and creates a user controlled
