Move the seemingly generic block_vcpu_list from kvm_vcpu to vcpu_vmx, and
rename the list and all associated variables to clarify that it tracks
the set of vCPU that need to be poked on a posted interrupt to the wakeup
vector. The list is not used to track _all_ vCPUs that are blocking, and
the term "blocked" can be misleading as it may refer to a blocking
condition in the host or the guest, where as the PI wakeup case is
specifically for the vCPUs that are actively blocking from within the
guest.
No functional change intended.

This adds basic support for delivering 2 level event channels to a guest.
Initially, it only supports delivery via the IRQ routing table, triggered
by an eventfd. In order to do so, it has a kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast()
function which will use the pre-mapped shared_info page if it already
exists and is still valid, while the slow path through the irqfd_inject
workqueue will remap the shared_info page if necessary.
It sets the bits in the shared_info page but not the vcpu_info; that is
deferred to __kvm_xen_has_interrupt() which raises the vector to the
appropriate vCPU.
Add a 'verbose' mode to xen_shinfo_test while adding test cases for this.

This can be used in two modes. There is an atomic mode where the cached
mapping is accessed while holding the rwlock, and a mode where the
physical address is used by a vCPU in guest mode.
For the latter case, an invalidation will wake the vCPU with the new
KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE, and the architecture will need to refresh any
caches it still needs to access before entering guest mode again.
Only one vCPU can be targeted by the wake requests; it's simple enough
to make it wake all vCPUs or even a mask but I don't see a use case for
that additional complexity right now.
Invalidation happens from the invalidate_range_start MMU notifier, which
needs to be able to sleep in order to wake the vCPU and wait for it.
This means that revalidation potentially needs to "wait" for the MMU
operation to complete and the invalidate_range_end notifier to be
invoked. Like the vCPU when it takes a page fault in that period, we
just spin — fixing that in a future patch by implementing an actual
*wait* may be another part of shaving this particularly hirsute yak.
As noted in the comments in the function itself, the only case where
the invalidate_range_start notifier is expected to be called *without*
being able to sleep is when the OOM reaper is killing the process. In
that case, we expect the vCPU threads already to have exited, and thus
there will be nothing to wake, and no reason to wait. So we clear the
KVM_REQUEST_WAIT bit and send the request anyway, then complain loudly
if there actually *was* anything to wake up.

Add a "blocking" stat that userspace can use to detect the case where a
vCPU is not being run because of an vCPU/guest action, e.g. HLT or WFS on
x86, WFI on arm64, etc... Current guest/host/halt stats don't show this
well, e.g. if a guest halts for a long period of time then the vCPU could
could appear pathologically blocked due to a host condition, when in
reality the vCPU has been put into a not-runnable state by the guest.

Do not define/reference kvm_vcpu.wait if __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_WQP is true, and
instead force the architecture (PPC) to define its own rcuwait object.
Allowing common KVM to directly access vcpu->wait without a guard makes
it all too easy to introduce potential bugs, e.g. kvm_vcpu_block(),
kvm_vcpu_on_spin(), and async_pf_execute() all operate on vcpu->wait, not
the result of kvm_arch_vcpu_get_wait(), and so may do the wrong thing for
PPC.
Due to PPC's shenanigans with respect to callbacks and waits (it switches
to the virtual core's wait object at KVM_RUN!?!?), it's not clear whether
or not this fixes any bugs.

Introduce a memslots gfn upper bound operation and use it to optimize
kvm_zap_gfn_range().
This way this handler can do a quick lookup for intersecting gfns and won't

Message-Id: <ef242146a87a335ee93b441dcf01665cb847c902.1638817641.git.maciej.szmigiero@oracle.com>
The current memslot code uses a (reverse gfn-ordered) memslot array for
keeping track of them.
Because the memslot array that is currently in use cannot be modified
every memslot management operation (create, delete, move, change flags)
has to make a copy of the whole array so it has a scratch copy to work on.
Strictly speaking, however, it is only necessary to make copy of the
memslot that is being modified, copying all the memslots currently present
is just a limitation of the array-based memslot implementation.
Two memslot sets, however, are still needed so the VM continues to run
on the currently active set while the requested operation is being
performed on the second, currently inactive one.
In order to have two memslot sets, but only one copy of actual memslots
it is necessary to split out the memslot data from the memslot sets.
The memslots themselves should be also kept independent of each other
so they can be individually added or deleted.
These two memslot sets should normally point to the same set of
memslots. They can, however, be desynchronized when performing a
memslot management operation by replacing the memslot to be modified
by its copy. After the operation is complete, both memslot sets once
again point to the same, common set of memslot data.
This commit implements the aforementioned idea.
For tracking of gfns an ordinary rbtree is used since memslots cannot
overlap in the guest address space and so this data structure is
sufficient for ensuring that lookups are done quickly.
The "last used slot" mini-caches (both per-slot set one and per-vCPU one),
that keep track of the last found-by-gfn memslot, are still present in the
new code.

The current memslots implementation only allows quick binary search by gfn,
quick lookup by hva is not possible - the implementation has to do a linear
scan of the whole memslots array, even though the operation being performed
might apply just to a single memslot.
This significantly hurts performance of per-hva operations with higher
memslot counts.
Since hva ranges can overlap between memslots an interval tree is needed
for tracking them.

Memslot ID to the corresponding memslot mappings are currently kept as
indices in static id_to_index array.
The size of this array depends on the maximum allowed memslot count
(regardless of the number of memslots actually in use).
This has become especially problematic recently, when memslot count cap was
removed, so the maximum count is now full 32k memslots - the maximum
allowed by the current KVM API.
Keeping these IDs in a hash table (instead of an array) avoids this
problem.
Resolving a memslot ID to the actual memslot (instead of its index) will
also enable transitioning away from an array-based implementation of the
whole memslots structure in a later commit.

Pass the "old" slot to kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region() and force arch
code to handle propagating arch specific data from "new" to "old" when
necessary. This is a baby step towards dynamically allocating "new" from
the get go, and is a (very) minor performance boost on x86 due to not
unnecessarily copying arch data.
For PPC HV, copy the rmap in the !CREATE and !DELETE paths, i.e. for MOVE
and FLAGS_ONLY. This is functionally a nop as the previous behavior
would overwrite the pointer for CREATE, and eventually discard/ignore it
for DELETE.
For x86, copy the arch data only for FLAGS_ONLY changes. Unlike PPC HV,
x86 needs to reallocate arch data in the MOVE case as the size of x86's
allocations depend on the alignment of the memslot's gfn.
Opportunistically tweak kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region()'s param order to
match the "commit" prototype.

Explicitly disallow creating more memslot pages than can fit in an
unsigned long, KVM doesn't correctly handle a total number of memslot
pages that doesn't fit in an unsigned long and remedying that would be a
waste of time.
For a 64-bit kernel, this is a nop as memslots are not allowed to overlap
in the gfn address space.
With a 32-bit kernel, userspace can at most address 3gb of virtual memory,
whereas wrapping the total number of pages would require 4tb+ of guest
physical memory. Even with x86's second address space for SMM, userspace
would need to alias all of guest memory more than one _thousand_ times.
And on older x86 hardware with MAXPHYADDR < 43, the guest couldn't
actually access any of those aliases even if userspace lied about
guest.MAXPHYADDR.
On 390 and arm64, this is a nop as they don't support 32-bit hosts.
On x86, practically speaking this is simply acknowledging reality as the
existing kvm_mmu_calculate_default_mmu_pages() assumes the total number
of pages fits in an "unsigned long".
On PPC, this is likely a nop as every flavor of PPC KVM assumes gfns (and
gpas!) fit in unsigned long. arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_32_mmu_host.c goes
a step further and fails the build if CONFIG_PTE_64BIT=y, which
presumably means that it does't support 64-bit physical addresses.
On MIPS, this is also likely a nop as the core MMU helpers assume gpas
fit in unsigned long, e.g. see kvm_mips_##name##_pte.
And finally, RISC-V is a "don't care" as it doesn't exist in any release,
i.e. there is no established ABI to break.

At least on arm64 and x86, the vcpus array is pretty huge (up to
1024 entries on x86) and is mostly empty in the majority of the cases
(running 1k vcpu VMs is not that common).
This mean that we end-up with a 4kB block of unused memory in the
middle of the kvm structure.
Instead of wasting away this memory, let's use an xarray instead,
which gives us almost the same flexibility as a normal array, but
with a reduced memory usage with smaller VMs.

* Fixes for Xen emulation
* Kill kvm_map_gfn() / kvm_unmap_gfn() and broken gfn_to_pfn_cache
* Fixes for migration of 32-bit nested guests on 64-bit hypervisor
* Compilation fixes
* More SEV cleanups
In commit 7e2175ebd6 ("KVM: x86: Fix recording of guest steal time /
preempted status") I removed the only user of these functions because
it was basically impossible to use them safely.
There are two stages to the GFN->PFN mapping; first through the KVM
memslots to a userspace HVA and then through the page tables to
translate that HVA to an underlying PFN. Invalidations of the former
were being handled correctly, but no attempt was made to use the MMU
notifiers to invalidate the cache when the HVA->GFN mapping changed.
As a prelude to reinventing the gfn_to_pfn_cache with more usable
semantics, rip it out entirely and untangle the implementation of
the unsafe kvm_vcpu_map()/kvm_vcpu_unmap() functions from it.
All current users of kvm_vcpu_map() also look broken right now, and
will be dealt with separately. They broadly fall into two classes:
* Those which map, access the data and immediately unmap. This is
mostly gratuitous and could just as well use the existing user
HVA, and could probably benefit from a gfn_to_hva_cache as they
do so.
* Those which keep the mapping around for a longer time, perhaps
even using the PFN directly from the guest. These will need to
be converted to the new gfn_to_pfn_cache and then kvm_vcpu_map()
can be removed too.

routing, it's too expensive if there're too many irqfds.
However we can reduce the cost by avoid some unnecessary

saved if the msi values are not change.
The vfio migration could receives benefit from this optimi-
zaiton. The test VM has 128 vcpus and 8 VF (with 65 vectors
enabled), so the VM has more than 520 irqfds. We mesure the
cost of the vfio_msix_enable (in QEMU, it would set routing
for each irqfd) for each VF, and we can see the total cost

Read vcpu->vcpu_idx directly instead of bouncing through the one-line
wrapper, kvm_vcpu_get_idx(), and drop the wrapper. The wrapper is a
remnant of the original implementation and serves no purpose; remove it
before it gains more users.
Back when kvm_vcpu_get_idx() was added by commit 497d72d80a ("KVM: Add
kvm_vcpu_get_idx to get vcpu index in kvm->vcpus"), the implementation
was more than just a simple wrapper as vcpu->vcpu_idx did not exist and
retrieving the index meant walking over the vCPU array to find the given
vCPU.
When vcpu_idx was introduced by commit 8750e72a79 ("KVM: remember
position in kvm->vcpus array"), the helper was left behind, likely to
avoid extra thrash (but even then there were only two users, the original
arm usage having been removed at some point in the past).

The memslot for a given gfn is looked up multiple times during page
fault handling. Avoid binary searching for it multiple times by caching
the most recently used slot. There is an existing VM-wide last_used_slot
but that does not work well for cases where vCPUs are accessing memory
in different slots (see performance data below).
Another benefit of caching the most recently use slot (versus looking
up the slot once and passing around a pointer) is speeding up memslot
lookups *across* faults and during spte prefetching.
To measure the performance of this change I ran dirty_log_perf_test with
64 vCPUs and 64 memslots and measured "Populate memory time" and
"Iteration 2 dirty memory time". Tests were ran with eptad=N to force
dirty logging to use fast_page_fault so its performance could be
measured.
Config | Metric | Before | After
---------- | ----------------------------- | ------ | ------
tdp_mmu=Y | Populate memory time | 6.76s | 5.47s
tdp_mmu=Y | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.83s | 0.31s
tdp_mmu=N | Populate memory time | 20.4s | 18.7s
tdp_mmu=N | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.65s | 0.30s
The "Iteration 2 dirty memory time" results are especially compelling
because they are equivalent to running the same test with a single
memslot. In other words, fast_page_fault performance no longer scales
with the number of memslots.

We would like to avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}()
notifications that are unrelated to KVM. Because mmu_notifier_count
must be modified while holding mmu_lock for write, and must always
be paired across start->end to stay balanced, lock elision must
happen in both or none. Therefore, in preparation for this change,
this patch prevents memslot updates across range_start() and range_end().
Note, technically flag-only memslot updates could be allowed in parallel,
but stalling a memslot update for a relatively short amount of time is
not a scalability issue, and this is all more than complex enough.
A long note on the locking: a previous version of the patch used an rwsem
to block the memslot update while the MMU notifier run, but this resulted
in the following deadlock involving the pseudo-lock tagged as
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start".

but task is already holding lock:
ffffaff7410a9160 (&kvm->mmu_notifier_slots_lock){.+.+}-{3:3}, at: kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start+0x36d/0x4f0 [kvm]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This corresponds to the following MMU notifier logic:
invalidate_range_start
take pseudo lock
down_read() (*)
release pseudo lock
invalidate_range_end
take pseudo lock (**)
up_read()
release pseudo lock
At point (*) we take the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock inside the pseudo lock;
at point (**) we take the pseudo lock inside the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock.
This could cause a deadlock (ignoring for a second that the pseudo lock
is not a lock):
- invalidate_range_start waits on down_read(), because the rwsem is
held by install_new_memslots
- install_new_memslots waits on down_write(), because the rwsem is
held till (another) invalidate_range_end finishes
- invalidate_range_end sits waits on the pseudo lock, held by
invalidate_range_start.
Removing the fairness of the rwsem breaks the cycle (in lockdep terms,
it would change the *shared* rwsem readers into *shared recursive*
readers), so open-code the wait using a readers count and a
spinlock. This also allows handling blockable and non-blockable
critical section in the same way.
Losing the rwsem fairness does theoretically allow MMU notifiers to
block install_new_memslots forever. Note that mm/mmu_notifier.c's own
retry scheme in mmu_interval_read_begin also uses wait/wake_up
and is likewise not fair.

Introduce this safe version of kvm_get_kvm() so that it can be called even
during vm destruction. Use it in kvm_debugfs_open() and remove the verbose
comment. Prepare to be used elsewhere.
