__hyp_panic_string is passed via the HYP panic code to the panic function, and is being "upgraded" to a kernel address, as it is referenced by the HYP code (in a PC-relative way). This is a bit silly, and we'd be better off obtaining the kernel address and not mess with it at all. This patch implements this with a tiny bit of asm glue, by forcing the string pointer to be read from the literal pool. Signed-off-by:

Since dealing with VA ranges tends to hurt my brain badly, let's start with a bit of documentation that will hopefully help understanding what comes next... Signed-off-by:

I don't think any single piece of the KVM/ARM code ever generated as much hatred as the GIC emulation. It was written by someone who had zero experience in modeling hardware (me), was riddled with design flaws, should have been scrapped and rewritten from scratch long before having a remote chance of reaching mainline, and yet we supported it for a good three years. No need to mention the names of those who suffered, the git log is singing their praises. Thankfully, we now have a much more maintainable implementation, and we can safely put the grumpy old GIC to rest. Fellow hackers, please raise your glass in memory of the GIC: The GIC is dead, long live the GIC! Signed-off-by:

Structures that can be generally written to don't have any requirement to be executable (quite the opposite). This includes the kvm and vcpu structures, as well as the stacks. Let's change the default to incorporate the XN flag. Signed-off-by:

There should be no reason for mapping the HYP text read/write. As such, let's have a new set of flags (PAGE_HYP_EXEC) that allows execution, but makes the page as read-only, and update the two call sites that deal with mapping code. Signed-off-by:

In order to be able to use C code in HYP, we're now mapping the kernel's rodata in HYP. It works absolutely fine, except that we're mapping it RWX, which is not what it should be. Add a new HYP_PAGE_RO protection, and pass it as the protection flags when mapping the rodata section. Signed-off-by:

EL2 page tables can be configured to deny code from being executed, which is done by setting bit 54 in the page descriptor. It is the same bit as PTE_UXN, but the "USER" reference felt odd in the hypervisor code. Signed-off-by:

Currently, create_hyp_mappings applies a "one size fits all" page protection (PAGE_HYP). As we're heading towards separate protections for different sections, let's make this protection a parameter, and let the callers pass their prefered protection (PAGE_HYP for everyone for the time being).

Merge tag 'kvm-s390-next-4.8-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into HEAD KVM: s390: vSIE (nested virtualization) feature for 4.8 (kvm/next) With an updated QEMU this allows to create nested KVM guests (KVM under KVM) on s390. s390 memory management changes from Martin Schwidefsky or acked by Martin. One common code memory management change (pageref) acked by Andrew Morton. The feature has to be enabled with the nested medule parameter.

Let's be careful first and allow nested virtualization only if enabled by the system administrator. In addition, user space still has to explicitly enable it via SCLP features for it to work. Acked-by:

We have certain SIE features that we cannot support for now. Let's add these features, so user space can directly prepare to enable them, so we don't have to update yet another component. In addition, add a comment block, telling why it is for now not possible to forward/enable these features. Acked-by:

Guest 2 sets up the epoch of guest 3 from his point of view. Therefore, we have to add the guest 2 epoch to the guest 3 epoch. We also have to take care of guest 2 epoch changes on STP syncs. This will work just fine by also updating the guest 3 epoch when a vsie_block has been set for a VCPU. Acked-by:

Whenever a SIGP external call is injected via the SIGP external call interpretation facility, the VCPU is not kicked. When a VCPU is currently in the VSIE, the external call might not be processed immediately. Therefore we have to provoke partial execution exceptions, which leads to a kick of the VCPU and therefore also kick out of VSIE. This is done by simulating the WAIT state. This bit has no other side effects. Acked-by:

As we want to make use of CPUSTAT_WAIT also when a VCPU is not idle but to force interception of external calls, let's check in the bitmap instead. Acked-by:

Whenever we want to wake up a VCPU (e.g. when injecting an IRQ), we have to kick it out of vsie, so the request will be handled faster. Acked-by:

We can avoid one unneeded SIE entry after we reported a fault to g2. Theoretically, g2 resolves the fault and we can create the shadow mapping directly, instead of failing again when entering the SIE. Acked-by:

We can easily forward guest-storage-limit-suppression if available. One thing to care about is keeping the prefix properly mapped when gsls in toggled on/off or the mso changes in between. Therefore we better remap the prefix on any mso changes just like we already do with the prefix. Acked-by:

Let's provide the 64-bit-SCAO facility to guest 2, so he can set up a SCA for guest 3 that has a 64 bit address. Please note that we already require the 64 bit SCAO for our vsie implementation, in order to forward the SCA directly (by pinning the page). Acked-by:

As soon as guest 2 is allowed to use the vector facility (indicated via STFLE), it can also enable it for guest 3. We have to take care of the sattellite block that might be used when not relying on lazy vector copying (not the case for KVM). Acked-by:

As soon as guest 2 is allowed to use transactional execution (indicated via STFLE), he can also enable it for guest 3. Active transactional execution requires also the second prefix page to be mapped. If that page cannot be mapped, a validity icpt has to be presented to the guest. We have to take care of tx being toggled on/off, otherwise we might get wrong prefix validity icpt. Acked-by:

Issuing STFLE is extremely rare. Instead of copying 2k on every VSIE call, let's do this lazily, when a guest 3 tries to execute STFLE. We can setup the block and retry. Unfortunately, we can't directly forward that facility list, as we only have a 31 bit address for the facility list designation. So let's use a DMA allocation for our vsie_page instead for now.

As soon as we forward an ibc to guest 2 (indicated via kvm->arch.model.ibc), he can also use it for guest 3. Let's properly round the ibc up/down, so we avoid any potential validity icpts from the underlying SIE, if it doesn't simply round the values. Acked-by:

In order to not always map the prefix, we have to take care of certain aspects that implicitly unmap the prefix: - Changes to the prefix address - Changes to MSO, because the HVA of the prefix is changed - Changes of the gmap shadow (e.g. unshadowed, asce or edat changes) By properly handling these cases, we can stop remapping the prefix when there is no reason to do so. This also allows us now to not acquire any gmap shadow locks when rerunning the vsie and still having a valid gmap shadow. Please note, to detect changing gmap shadows, we have to keep the reference of the gmap shadow. The address of a gmap shadow does otherwise not reliably indicate if the gmap shadow has changed (the memory chunk could get reused). Acked-by:

This patch adds basic support for nested virtualization on s390x, called VSIE (virtual SIE) and allows it to be used by the guest if the necessary facilities are supported by the hardware and enabled for the guest. In order to make this work, we have to shadow the sie control block provided by guest 2. In order to gain some performance, we have to reuse the same shadow blocks as good as possible. For now, we allow as many shadow blocks as we have VCPUs (that way, every VCPU can run the VSIE concurrently). We have to watch out for the prefix getting unmapped out of our shadow gmap and properly get the VCPU out of VSIE in that case, to fault the prefix pages back in. We use the PROG_REQUEST bit for that purpose. This patch is based on an initial prototype by Tobias Elpelt. Acked-by:

Nested virtualization will have to enable own gmaps. Current code would enable the wrong gmap whenever scheduled out and back in, therefore resulting in the wrong gmap being enabled. This patch reenables the last enabled gmap, therefore avoiding having to touch vcpu->arch.gmap when enabling a different gmap. Acked-by:

Let's not fault in everything in read-write but limit it to read-only where possible. When restricting access rights, we already have the required protection level in our hands. When reading from guest 2 storage (gmap_read_table), it is obviously PROT_READ. When shadowing a pte, the required protection level is given via the guest 2 provided pte.
