f2d3155e2a KVM: s390: disable migration mode when dirty tracking is disabled
Migration mode is a VM attribute which enables tracking of changes in
storage attributes (PGSTE). It assumes dirty tracking is enabled on all
memslots to keep a dirty bitmap of pages with changed storage attributes.

When enabling migration mode, we currently check that dirty tracking is
enabled for all memslots. However, userspace can disable dirty tracking
without disabling migration mode.

Since migration mode is pointless with dirty tracking disabled, disable
migration mode whenever userspace disables dirty tracking on any slot.

Also update the documentation to clarify that dirty tracking must be
enabled when enabling migration mode, which is already enforced by the
code in kvm_s390_vm_start_migration().

Also highlight in the documentation for KVM_S390_GET_CMMA_BITS that it
can now fail with -EINVAL when dirty tracking is disabled while
migration mode is on. Move all the error codes to a table so this stays
readable.

To disable migration mode, slots_lock should be held, which is taken
in kvm_set_memory_region() and thus held in
kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region().

Restructure the prepare code a bit so all the sanity checking is done
before disabling migration mode. This ensures migration mode isn't
disabled when some sanity check fails.

eb5618911a Merge tag 'kvmarm-6.2' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD
KVM/arm64 updates for 6.2

- Enable the per-vcpu dirty-ring tracking mechanism, together with an
  option to keep the good old dirty log around for pages that are
  dirtied by something other than a vcpu.

- Switch to the relaxed parallel fault handling, using RCU to delay
  page table reclaim and giving better performance under load.

- Relax the MTE ABI, allowing a VMM to use the MAP_SHARED mapping
  option, which multi-process VMMs such as crosvm rely on.

- Merge the pKVM shadow vcpu state tracking that allows the hypervisor
  to have its own view of a vcpu, keeping that state private.

- Add support for the PMUv3p5 architecture revision, bringing support
  for 64bit counters on systems that support it, and fix the
  no-quite-compliant CHAIN-ed counter support for the machines that
  actually exist out there.

- Fix a handful of minor issues around 52bit VA/PA support (64kB pages
  only) as a prefix of the oncoming support for 4kB and 16kB pages.

- Add/Enable/Fix a bunch of selftests covering memslots, breakpoints,
  stage-2 faults and access tracking. You name it, we got it, we
  probably broke it.

- Pick a small set of documentation and spelling fixes, because no
  good merge window would be complete without those.

As a side effect, this tag also drags:

- The 'kvmarm-fixes-6.1-3' tag as a dependency to the dirty-ring
  series

- A shared branch with the arm64 tree that repaints all the system
  registers to match the ARM ARM's naming, and resulting in
  interesting conflicts

86bdf3ebcf KVM: Support dirty ring in conjunction with bitmap
ARM64 needs to dirty memory outside of a VCPU context when VGIC/ITS is
enabled. It's conflicting with that ring-based dirty page tracking always
requires a running VCPU context.

Introduce a new flavor of dirty ring that requires the use of both VCPU
dirty rings and a dirty bitmap. The expectation is that for non-VCPU
sources of dirty memory (such as the VGIC/ITS on arm64), KVM writes to
the dirty bitmap. Userspace should scan the dirty bitmap before migrating
the VM to the target.

Use an additional capability to advertise this behavior. The newly added
capability (KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_WITH_BITMAP) can't be enabled before
KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL on ARM64. In this way, the newly added
capability is treated as an extension of KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL.

6973091d1b KVM: s390: pv: don't allow userspace to set the clock under PV
When running under PV, the guest's TOD clock is under control of the
ultravisor and the hypervisor isn't allowed to change it. Hence, don't
allow userspace to change the guest's TOD clock by returning
-EOPNOTSUPP.

When userspace changes the guest's TOD clock, KVM updates its
kvm.arch.epoch field and, in addition, the epoch field in all state
descriptions of all VCPUs.

But, under PV, the ultravisor will ignore the epoch field in the state
description and simply overwrite it on next SIE exit with the actual
guest epoch. This leads to KVM having an incorrect view of the guest's
TOD clock: it has updated its internal kvm.arch.epoch field, but the
ultravisor ignores the field in the state description.

Whenever a guest is now waiting for a clock comparator, KVM will
incorrectly calculate the time when the guest should wake up, possibly
causing the guest to sleep for much longer than expected.

With this change, kvm_s390_set_tod() will now take the kvm->lock to be
able to call kvm_s390_pv_is_protected(). Since kvm_s390_set_tod_clock()
also takes kvm->lock, use __kvm_s390_set_tod_clock() instead.

The function kvm_s390_set_tod_clock is now unused, hence remove it.
Update the documentation to indicate the TOD clock attr calls can now
return -EOPNOTSUPP.

583cda1b0e KVM: arm64: Refuse to run VCPU if the PMU doesn't match the physical CPU
Userspace can assign a PMU to a VCPU with the KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_SET_PMU
device ioctl. If the VCPU is scheduled on a physical CPU which has a
different PMU, the perf events needed to emulate a guest PMU won't be
scheduled in and the guest performance counters will stop counting. Treat
it as an userspace error and refuse to run the VCPU in this situation.

6ee7fca2a4 KVM: arm64: Add KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_SET_PMU attribute
When KVM creates an event and there are more than one PMUs present on the
system, perf_init_event() will go through the list of available PMUs and
will choose the first one that can create the event. The order of the PMUs
in this list depends on the probe order, which can change under various
circumstances, for example if the order of the PMU nodes change in the DTB
or if asynchronous driver probing is enabled on the kernel command line
(with the driver_async_probe=armv8-pmu option).

Another consequence of this approach is that on heteregeneous systems all
virtual machines that KVM creates will use the same PMU. This might cause
unexpected behaviour for userspace: when a VCPU is executing on the
physical CPU that uses this default PMU, PMU events in the guest work
correctly; but when the same VCPU executes on another CPU, PMU events in
the guest will suddenly stop counting.

Fortunately, perf core allows user to specify on which PMU to create an
event by using the perf_event_attr->type field, which is used by
perf_init_event() as an index in the radix tree of available PMUs.

Add the KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_CTRL(KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_SET_PMU) VCPU
attribute to allow userspace to specify the arm_pmu that KVM will use when
creating events for that VCPU. KVM will make no attempt to run the VCPU on
the physical CPUs that share the PMU, leaving it up to userspace to manage
the VCPU threads' affinity accordingly.

To ensure that KVM doesn't expose an asymmetric system to the guest, the
PMU set for one VCPU will be used by all other VCPUs. Once a VCPU has run,
the PMU cannot be changed in order to avoid changing the list of available
events for a VCPU, or to change the semantics of existing events.

5177fe91e4 KVM: arm64: Do not change the PMU event filter after a VCPU has run
Userspace can specify which events a guest is allowed to use with the
KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER attribute. The list of allowed events can be
identified by a guest from reading the PMCEID{0,1}_EL0 registers.

Changing the PMU event filter after a VCPU has run can cause reads of the
registers performed before the filter is changed to return different values
than reads performed with the new event filter in place. The architecture
defines the two registers as read-only, and this behaviour contradicts
that.

Keep track when the first VCPU has run and deny changes to the PMU event
filter to prevent this from happening.

828ca89628 KVM: x86: Expose TSC offset controls to userspace
To date, VMM-directed TSC synchronization and migration has been a bit
messy. KVM has some baked-in heuristics around TSC writes to infer if
the VMM is attempting to synchronize. This is problematic, as it depends
on host userspace writing to the guest's TSC within 1 second of the last
write.

A much cleaner approach to configuring the guest's views of the TSC is to
simply migrate the TSC offset for every vCPU. Offsets are idempotent,
and thus not subject to change depending on when the VMM actually
reads/writes values from/to KVM. The VMM can then read the TSC once with
KVM_GET_CLOCK to capture a (realtime, host_tsc) pair at the instant when
the guest is paused.

f65470661f KVM: s390/interrupt: do not pin adapter interrupt pages
The adapter interrupt page containing the indicator bits is currently
pinned. That means that a guest with many devices can pin a lot of
memory pages in the host. This also complicates the reference tracking
which is needed for memory management handling of protected virtual
machines. It might also have some strange side effects for madvise
MADV_DONTNEED and other things.

We can simply try to get the userspace page set the bits and free the
page. By storing the userspace address in the irq routing entry instead
of the guest address we can actually avoid many lookups and list walks
so that this variant is very likely not slower.

If userspace messes around with the memory slots the worst thing that
can happen is that we write to some other memory within that process.
As we get the the page with FOLL_WRITE this can also not be used to
write to shared read-only pages.

05c47036c6 docs: kvm: convert devices/mpic.txt to ReST
This document is almost in ReST format. The only thing
needed is to mark a list as such and to add an extra
whitespace.

Yet, let's also use the standard document title markup,
as it makes easier if anyone wants later to add sessions
to it.

efe5ddcae4 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XIVE: Allow userspace to set the # of VPs
Add a new attribute to both XIVE and XICS-on-XIVE KVM devices so that
userspace can tell how many interrupt servers it needs. If a VM needs
less than the current default of KVM_MAX_VCPUS (2048), we can allocate
less VPs in OPAL. Combined with a core stride (VSMT) that matches the
number of guest threads per core, this may substantially increases the
number of VMs that can run concurrently with an in-kernel XIVE device.

Since the legacy XIVE KVM device is exposed to userspace through the
XICS KVM API, a new attribute group is added to it for this purpose.
While here, fix the syntax of the existing KVM_DEV_XICS_GRP_SOURCES
in the XICS documentation.

6a7458485b KVM: arm64: Document PV-time interface
Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 based on the
"Arm Paravirtualized Time for Arm-Base Systems" specification DEN 0057A.

This only adds the details about "Stolen Time" as the details of "Live
Physical Time" have not been fully agreed.

User space can specify a reserved area of memory for the guest and
inform KVM to populate the memory with information on time that the host
kernel has stolen from the guest.

A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the
hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared
memory structures.

2f5947dfca Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virt
Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
grossly misnamed directories.  We usually never use "virtual" as
a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
as seen in the virt/ top-level directory.  Fix up the documentation
to match that.

Fixes: ed16648eb5 ("Move kvm, uml, and lguest subdirectories under a common "virtual" directory, I.E:")
