      sched: adjust scheduler cpu power for stolen time · 095c0aa8
      Glauber Costa authored
      This patch makes update_rq_clock() aware of steal time.
      The mechanism of operation is not different from irq_time,
      and follows the same principles. This lives in a CONFIG
      option itself, and can be compiled out independently of
      the rest of steal time reporting. The effect of disabling it
      is that the scheduler will still report steal time (that cannot be
      disabled), but won't use this information for cpu power adjustments.
      
      Everytime update_rq_clock_task() is invoked, we query information
      about how much time was stolen since last call, and feed it into
      sched_rt_avg_update().
      
      Although steal time reporting in account_process_tick() keeps
      track of the last time we read the steal clock, in prev_steal_time,
      this patch do it independently using another field,
      prev_steal_time_rq. This is because otherwise, information about time
      accounted in update_process_tick() would never reach us in update_rq_clock().

      KVM guest: Steal time accounting · e6e6685a
      Glauber Costa authored
      This patch accounts steal time time in account_process_tick.
      If one or more tick is considered stolen in the current
      accounting cycle, user/system accounting is skipped. Idle is fine,
      since the hypervisor does not report steal time if the guest
      is halted.
      
      Accounting steal time from the core scheduler give us the
      advantage of direct acess to the runqueue data. In a later
      opportunity, it can be used to tweak cpu power and make
      the scheduler aware of the time it lost.

      This patch adds a function pointer in one of the many paravirt_ops
      structs, to allow guests to register a steal time function. Besides
      a steal time function, we also declare two jump_labels. They will be

      KVM: Steal time implementation · c9aaa895
      Glauber Costa authored
      To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest
      information about how much time was spent running other processes
      outside the VM, while the vcpu had meaningful work to do - halt
      time does not count.
      
      This information is acquired through the run_delay field of
      delayacct/schedstats infrastructure, that counts time spent in a
      runqueue but not running.
      
      Steal time is a per-cpu information, so the traditional MSR-based
      infrastructure is used. A new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, holds the
      memory area address containing information about steal time
      
      This patch contains the hypervisor part of the steal time infrasructure,
      and can be backported independently of the guest portion.

      KVM: KVM Steal time guest/host interface · 9ddabbe7
      Glauber Costa authored
      To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest information
      about how much time was spent running other processes outside the VM.
      This is per-vcpu, and using the kvmclock structure for that is an abuse
      we decided not to make.
      
      In this patchset, I am introducing a new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, that
      holds the memory area address containing information about steal time
      
      This patch contains the headers for it. I am keeping it separate to facilitate
      backports to people who wants to backport the kernel part but not the
      hypervisor, or the other way around.

      KVM: PPC: book3s_hv: Add support for PPC970-family processors · 9e368f29
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This adds support for running KVM guests in supervisor mode on those
      PPC970 processors that have a usable hypervisor mode.  Unfortunately,
      Apple G5 machines have supervisor mode disabled (MSR[HV] is forced to
      1), but the YDL PowerStation does have a usable hypervisor mode.
      
      There are several differences between the PPC970 and POWER7 in how
      guests are managed.  These differences are accommodated using the
      CPU_FTR_ARCH_201 (PPC970) and CPU_FTR_ARCH_206 (POWER7) CPU feature
      bits.  Notably, on PPC970:
      
      * The LPCR, LPID or RMOR registers don't exist, and the functions of
        those registers are provided by bits in HID4 and one bit in HID0.
      
      * External interrupts can be directed to the hypervisor, but unlike
        POWER7 they are masked by MSR[EE] in non-hypervisor modes and use
        SRR0/1 not HSRR0/1.
      
      * There is no virtual RMA (VRMA) mode; the guest must use an RMO
        (real mode offset) area.
      
      * The TLB entries are not tagged with the LPID, so it is necessary to
        flush the whole TLB on partition switch.  Furthermore, when switching
        partitions we have to ensure that no other CPU is executing the tlbie
        or tlbsync instructions in either the old or the new partition,
        otherwise undefined behaviour can occur.
      
      * The PMU has 8 counters (PMC registers) rather than 6.
      
      * The DSCR, PURR, SPURR, AMR, AMOR, UAMOR registers don't exist.
      
      * The SLB has 64 entries rather than 32.
      
      * There is no mediated external interrupt facility, so if we switch to
        a guest that has a virtual external interrupt pending but the guest
        has MSR[EE] = 0, we have to arrange to have an interrupt pending for
        it so that we can get control back once it re-enables interrupts.  We
        do that by sending ourselves an IPI with smp_send_reschedule after
        hard-disabling interrupts.

      powerpc, KVM: Split HVMODE_206 cpu feature bit into separate HV and architecture bits · 969391c5
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This replaces the single CPU_FTR_HVMODE_206 bit with two bits, one to
      indicate that we have a usable hypervisor mode, and another to indicate
      that the processor conforms to PowerISA version 2.06.  We also add
      another bit to indicate that the processor conforms to ISA version 2.01
      and set that for PPC970 and derivatives.
      
      Some PPC970 chips (specifically those in Apple machines) have a
      hypervisor mode in that MSR[HV] is always 1, but the hypervisor mode
      is not useful in the sense that there is no way to run any code in
      supervisor mode (HV=0 PR=0).  On these processors, the LPES0 and LPES1
      bits in HID4 are always 0, and we use that as a way of detecting that
      hypervisor mode is not useful.
      
      Where we have a feature section in assembly code around code that
      only applies on POWER7 in hypervisor mode, we use a construct like
      
      END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_HVMODE | CPU_FTR_ARCH_206)
      
      The definition of END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET is such that the code will
      be enabled (not overwritten with nops) only if all bits in the
      provided mask are set.
      
      Note that the CPU feature check in __tlbie() only needs to check the
      ARCH_206 bit, not the HVMODE bit, because __tlbie() can only get called
      if we are running bare-metal, i.e. in hypervisor mode.

      KVM: PPC: Allocate RMAs (Real Mode Areas) at boot for use by guests · aa04b4cc
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This adds infrastructure which will be needed to allow book3s_hv KVM to
      run on older POWER processors, including PPC970, which don't support
      the Virtual Real Mode Area (VRMA) facility, but only the Real Mode
      Offset (RMO) facility.  These processors require a physically
      contiguous, aligned area of memory for each guest.  When the guest does
      an access in real mode (MMU off), the address is compared against a
      limit value, and if it is lower, the address is ORed with an offset
      value (from the Real Mode Offset Register (RMOR)) and the result becomes
      the real address for the access.  The size of the RMA has to be one of
      a set of supported values, which usually includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB
      and some larger powers of 2.
      
      Since we are unlikely to be able to allocate 64MB or more of physically
      contiguous memory after the kernel has been running for a while, we
      allocate a pool of RMAs at boot time using the bootmem allocator.  The
      size and number of the RMAs can be set using the kvm_rma_size=xx and
      kvm_rma_count=xx kernel command line options.
      
      KVM exports a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA, to signal the availability
      of the pool of preallocated RMAs.  The capability value is 1 if the
      processor can use an RMA but doesn't require one (because it supports
      the VRMA facility), or 2 if the processor requires an RMA for each guest.
      
      This adds a new ioctl, KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA, which allocates an RMA from the
      pool and returns a file descriptor which can be used to map the RMA.  It
      also returns the size of the RMA in the argument structure.
      
      Having an RMA means we will get multiple KMV_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
      ioctl calls from userspace.  To cope with this, we now preallocate the
      kvm->arch.ram_pginfo array when the VM is created with a size sufficient
      for up to 64GB of guest memory.  Subsequently we will get rid of this
      array and use memory associated with each memslot instead.
      
      This moves most of the code that translates the user addresses into
      host pfns (page frame numbers) out of kvmppc_prepare_vrma up one level
      to kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region.  Also, instead of having to look
      up the VMA for each page in order to check the page size, we now check
      that the pages we get are compound pages of 16MB.  However, if we are
      adding memory that is mapped to an RMA, we don't bother with calling
      get_user_pages_fast and instead just offset from the base pfn for the
      RMA.
      
      Typically the RMA gets added after vcpus are created, which makes it
      inconvenient to have the LPCR (logical partition control register) value
      in the vcpu->arch struct, since the LPCR controls whether the processor
      uses RMA or VRMA for the guest.  This moves the LPCR value into the
      kvm->arch struct and arranges for the MER (mediated external request)
      bit, which is the only bit that varies between vcpus, to be set in
      assembly code when going into the guest if there is a pending external
      interrupt request.

      KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use SMT processor modes · 371fefd6
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This lifts the restriction that book3s_hv guests can only run one
      hardware thread per core, and allows them to use up to 4 threads
      per core on POWER7.  The host still has to run single-threaded.
      
      This capability is advertised to qemu through a new KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT
      capability.  The return value of the ioctl querying this capability
      is the number of vcpus per virtual CPU core (vcore), currently 4.
      
      To use this, the host kernel should be booted with all threads
      active, and then all the secondary threads should be offlined.
      This will put the secondary threads into nap mode.  KVM will then
      wake them from nap mode and use them for running guest code (while
      they are still offline).  To wake the secondary threads, we send
      them an IPI using a new xics_wake_cpu() function, implemented in
      arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/icp-native.c.  In other words, at this stage
      we assume that the platform has a XICS interrupt controller and
      we are using icp-native.c to drive it.  Since the woken thread will
      need to acknowledge and clear the IPI, we also export the base
      physical address of the XICS registers using kvmppc_set_xics_phys()
      for use in the low-level KVM book3s code.
      
      When a vcpu is created, it is assigned to a virtual CPU core.
      The vcore number is obtained by dividing the vcpu number by the
      number of threads per core in the host.  This number is exported
      to userspace via the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability.  If qemu wishes
      to run the guest in single-threaded mode, it should make all vcpu
      numbers be multiples of the number of threads per core.
      
      We distinguish three states of a vcpu: runnable (i.e., ready to execute
      the guest), blocked (that is, idle), and busy in host.  We currently
      implement a policy that the vcore can run only when all its threads
      are runnable or blocked.  This way, if a vcpu needs to execute elsewhere
      in the kernel or in qemu, it can do so without being starved of CPU
      by the other vcpus.
      
      When a vcore starts to run, it executes in the context of one of the
      vcpu threads.  The other vcpu threads all go to sleep and stay asleep
      until something happens requiring the vcpu thread to return to qemu,
      or to wake up to run the vcore (this can happen when another vcpu
      thread goes from busy in host state to blocked).
      
      It can happen that a vcpu goes from blocked to runnable state (e.g.
      because of an interrupt), and the vcore it belongs to is already
      running.  In that case it can start to run immediately as long as
      the none of the vcpus in the vcore have started to exit the guest.
      We send the next free thread in the vcore an IPI to get it to start
      to execute the guest.  It synchronizes with the other threads via
      the vcore->entry_exit_count field to make sure that it doesn't go
      into the guest if the other vcpus are exiting by the time that it
      is ready to actually enter the guest.
      
      Note that there is no fixed relationship between the hardware thread
      number and the vcpu number.  Hardware threads are assigned to vcpus
      as they become runnable, so we will always use the lower-numbered
      hardware threads in preference to higher-numbered threads if not all
      the vcpus in the vcore are runnable, regardless of which vcpus are
      runnable.

      KVM: PPC: Accelerate H_PUT_TCE by implementing it in real mode · 54738c09
      David Gibson authored
      This improves I/O performance for guests using the PAPR
      paravirtualization interface by making the H_PUT_TCE hcall faster, by
      implementing it in real mode.  H_PUT_TCE is used for updating virtual
      IOMMU tables, and is used both for virtual I/O and for real I/O in the
      PAPR interface.
      
      Since this moves the IOMMU tables into the kernel, we define a new
      KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE ioctl to allow qemu to create the tables.  The
      ioctl returns a file descriptor which can be used to mmap the newly
      created table.  The qemu driver models use them in the same way as
      userspace managed tables, but they can be updated directly by the
      guest with a real-mode H_PUT_TCE implementation, reducing the number
      of host/guest context switches during guest IO.
      
      There are certain circumstances where it is useful for userland qemu
      to write to the TCE table even if the kernel H_PUT_TCE path is used
      most of the time.  Specifically, allowing this will avoid awkwardness
      when we need to reset the table.  More importantly, we will in the
      future need to write the table in order to restore its state after a
      checkpoint resume or migration.

      KVM: PPC: Handle some PAPR hcalls in the kernel · a8606e20
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This adds the infrastructure for handling PAPR hcalls in the kernel,
      either early in the guest exit path while we are still in real mode,
      or later once the MMU has been turned back on and we are in the full
      kernel context.  The advantage of handling hcalls in real mode if
      possible is that we avoid two partition switches -- and this will
      become more important when we support SMT4 guests, since a partition
      switch means we have to pull all of the threads in the core out of
      the guest.  The disadvantage is that we can only access the kernel
      linear mapping, not anything vmalloced or ioremapped, since the MMU
      is off.
      
      This also adds code to handle the following hcalls in real mode:
      
      H_ENTER       Add an HPTE to the hashed page table
      H_REMOVE      Remove an HPTE from the hashed page table
      H_READ        Read HPTEs from the hashed page table
      H_PROTECT     Change the protection bits in an HPTE
      H_BULK_REMOVE Remove up to 4 HPTEs from the hashed page table
      H_SET_DABR    Set the data address breakpoint register
      
      Plus code to handle the following hcalls in the kernel:
      
      H_CEDE        Idle the vcpu until an interrupt or H_PROD hcall arrives
      H_PROD        Wake up a ceded vcpu
      H_REGISTER_VPA Register a virtual processor area (VPA)
      
      The code that runs in real mode has to be in the base kernel, not in
      the module, if KVM is compiled as a module.  The real-mode code can
      only access the kernel linear mapping, not vmalloc or ioremap space.

      KVM: PPC: Add support for Book3S processors in hypervisor mode · de56a948
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors,
      specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode.  Using hypervisor mode means
      that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode.  That means
      that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged
      registers itself without trapping to the host.  This gives excellent
      performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor
      architecture other than the one that the hardware implements.
      
      This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the
      PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the
      interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses.  That means that existing
      Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run
      under KVM without modification.  In order to communicate the PAPR
      hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code
      to include/linux/kvm.h.
      
      Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support
      (i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be
      made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only
      do one or the other.
      
      This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present.
      Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious
      restriction.
      
      With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight
      to the guest.  We will never get data or instruction storage or segment
      interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program
      interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from
      the guest.  Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the
      exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry
      to those exception handlers.
      
      We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage,
      hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist
      interrupts, so we have to handle those.
      
      In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just
      a limited amount.  Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch
      and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space.
      We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use
      anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it.
      We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a
      kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers,
      so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct.
      
      The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have
      to be in the same partition.  MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition
      (partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and
      exit from the guest.  At present we require the host and guest to run
      in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction.
      
      This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes
      it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA).  We
      require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in
      order to simplify the low-level memory management.  This also means that
      we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now,
      since huge pages can't be paged or swapped.
      
      This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

      KVM: PPC: Split host-state fields out of kvmppc_book3s_shadow_vcpu · 3c42bf8a
      Paul Mackerras authored
      There are several fields in struct kvmppc_book3s_shadow_vcpu that
      temporarily store bits of host state while a guest is running,
      rather than anything relating to the particular guest or vcpu.
      This splits them out into a new kvmppc_host_state structure and
      modifies the definitions in asm-offsets.c to suit.
      
      On 32-bit, we have a kvmppc_host_state structure inside the
      kvmppc_book3s_shadow_vcpu since the assembly code needs to be able
      to get to them both with one pointer.  On 64-bit they are separate
      fields in the PACA.  This means that on 64-bit we don't need to
      copy the kvmppc_host_state in and out on vcpu load/unload, and
      in future will mean that the book3s_hv code doesn't need a
      shadow_vcpu struct in the PACA at all.  That does mean that we
      have to be careful not to rely on any values persisting in the
      hstate field of the paca across any point where we could block
      or get preempted.

      powerpc: Set up LPCR for running guest partitions · 923c53ca
      Paul Mackerras authored
      In hypervisor mode, the LPCR controls several aspects of guest
      partitions, including virtual partition memory mode, and also controls
      whether the hypervisor decrementer interrupts are enabled.  This sets
      up LPCR at boot time so that guest partitions will use a virtual real
      memory area (VRMA) composed of 16MB large pages, and hypervisor
      decrementer interrupts are disabled.

      KVM: PPC: Move guest enter/exit down into subarch-specific code · df6909e5
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Instead of doing the kvm_guest_enter/exit() and local_irq_dis/enable()
      calls in powerpc.c, this moves them down into the subarch-specific
      book3s_pr.c and booke.c.  This eliminates an extra local_irq_enable()
      call in book3s_pr.c, and will be needed for when we do SMT4 guest
      support in the book3s hypervisor mode code.

      KVM: PPC: Deliver program interrupts right away instead of queueing them · 3cf658b6
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Doing so means that we don't have to save the flags anywhere and gets
      rid of the last reference to to_book3s(vcpu) in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s.c.
      
      Doing so is OK because a program interrupt won't be generated at the
      same time as any other synchronous interrupt.  If a program interrupt
      and an asynchronous interrupt (external or decrementer) are generated
      at the same time, the program interrupt will be delivered, which is
      correct because it has a higher priority, and then the asynchronous
      interrupt will be masked.
      
      We don't ever generate system reset or machine check interrupts to the
      guest, but if we did, then we would need to make sure they got delivered
      rather than the program interrupt.  The current code would be wrong in
      this situation anyway since it would deliver the program interrupt as
      well as the reset/machine check interrupt.
