KVM/ARM Updates for Linux 3.12
* tag 'kvm-arm-for-3.12' of git://git.linaro.org/people/cdall/linux-kvm-arm:
ARM: KVM: Add newlines to panic strings
ARM: KVM: Work around older compiler bug
ARM: KVM: Simplify tracepoint text
ARM: KVM: Fix kvm_set_pte assignment
|
|
The panic strings are hard to read and on narrow terminals some
characters are simply truncated off the panic message.
Make is slightly prettier with a newline in the Hyp panic strings.

Compilers before 4.6 do not behave well with unnamed fields in structure
initializers and therefore produces build errors:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10676
By refering to the unnamed union using braces, both older and newer
compilers produce the same result.

THe kvm_set_pte function was actually assigning the entire struct to the
structure member, which should work because the structure only has that
one member, but it is still not very nice.

The Versatile Express TC2 board, which we use as our main emulated
platform in QEMU, defines 160+32 == 192 interrupts, so limiting the
number of interrupts to 128 is not quite going to cut it for real board
emulation.
Note that this didn't use to be a problem because QEMU was buggy and
only defined 128 interrupts until recently.

For bytemaps each IRQ field is 1 byte wide, so we pack 4 irq fields in
one word and since there are 32 private (per cpu) irqs, we have 8
private u32 fields on the vgic_bytemap struct. We shift the offset from
the base of the register group right by 2, giving us the word index
instead of the field index. But then there are 8 private words, not 4,
which is also why we subtract 8 words from the offset of the shared
words.

All the code in handle_mmio_cfg_reg() assumes the offset has
been shifted right to accomodate for the 2:1 bit compression,
but this is only done when getting the register address.
Shift the offset early so the code works mostly unchanged.

This reworks kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_xlate() to make it check the large
page bit in the hashed page table entries (HPTEs) it looks at, and
to simplify and streamline the code. The checking of the first dword
of each HPTE is now done with a single mask and compare operation,
and all the code dealing with the matching HPTE, if we find one,
is consolidated in one place in the main line of the function flow.

It turns out that if we exit the guest due to a hcall instruction (sc 1),
and the loading of the instruction in the guest exit path fails for any
reason, the call to kvmppc_ld() in kvmppc_get_last_inst() fetches the
instruction after the hcall instruction rather than the hcall itself.
This in turn means that the instruction doesn't get recognized as an
hcall in kvmppc_handle_exit_pr() but gets passed to the guest kernel
as a sc instruction. That usually results in the guest kernel getting
a return code of 38 (ENOSYS) from an hcall, which often triggers a
BUG_ON() or other failure.
This fixes the problem by adding a new variant of kvmppc_get_last_inst()
called kvmppc_get_last_sc(), which fetches the instruction if necessary
from pc - 4 rather than pc.

Currently the code assumes that once we load up guest FP/VSX or VMX
state into the CPU, it stays valid in the CPU registers until we
explicitly flush it to the thread_struct. However, on POWER7,
copy_page() and memcpy() can use VMX. These functions do flush the
VMX state to the thread_struct before using VMX instructions, but if
this happens while we have guest state in the VMX registers, and we
then re-enter the guest, we don't reload the VMX state from the
thread_struct, leading to guest corruption. This has been observed
to cause guest processes to segfault.
To fix this, we check before re-entering the guest that all of the
bits corresponding to facilities owned by the guest, as expressed
in vcpu->arch.guest_owned_ext, are set in current->thread.regs->msr.
Any bits that have been cleared correspond to facilities that have
been used by kernel code and thus flushed to the thread_struct, so
for them we reload the state from the thread_struct.
We also need to check current->thread.regs->msr before calling
giveup_fpu() or giveup_altivec(), since if the relevant bit is
clear, the state has already been flushed to the thread_struct and
to flush it again would corrupt it.

The checks on PG_reserved in the page structure on head and tail pages
aren't necessary because split_huge_page wouldn't transfer the
PG_reserved bit from head to tail anyway.
This was a forward-thinking check done in the case PageReserved was
set by a driver-owned page mapped in userland with something like
remap_pfn_range in a VM_PFNMAP region, but using hugepmds (not
possible right now). It was meant to be very safe, but it's overkill
as it's unlikely split_huge_page could ever run without the driver
noticing and tearing down the hugepage itself.
And if a driver in the future will really want to map a reserved
hugepage in userland using an huge pmd it should simply take care of
marking all subpages reserved too to keep KVM safe. This of course
would require such a hypothetical driver to tear down the huge pmd
itself and splitting the hugepage itself, instead of relaying on
split_huge_page, but that sounds very reasonable, especially
considering split_huge_page wouldn't currently transfer the reserved
bit anyway.

KVM uses anon_inode_get() to allocate file descriptors as part
of some of its ioctls. But those ioctls are lacking a flag argument
allowing userspace to choose options for the newly opened file descriptor.
In such case it's advised to use O_CLOEXEC by default so that
userspace is allowed to choose, without race, if the file descriptor
is going to be inherited across exec().
This patch set O_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors created
with anon_inode_getfd() to not leak file descriptors across exec().

If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT instruction.
In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table
for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in
the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level
of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted,
which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT
should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each
time EPTP02 changes.

KVM's existing shadow MMU code already supports nested TDP. To use it, we
need to set up a new "MMU context" for nested EPT, and create a few callbacks
for it (nested_ept_*()). This context should also use the EPT versions of
the page table access functions (defined in the previous patch).
Then, we need to switch back and forth between this nested context and the
regular MMU context when switching between L1 and L2 (when L1 runs this L2
with EPT).

This is the first patch in a series which adds nested EPT support to KVM's
nested VMX. Nested EPT means emulating EPT for an L1 guest so that L1 can use
EPT when running a nested guest L2. When L1 uses EPT, it allows the L2 guest
to set its own cr3 and take its own page faults without either of L0 or L1
getting involved. This often significanlty improves L2's performance over the
previous two alternatives (shadow page tables over EPT, and shadow page
tables over shadow page tables).
This patch adds EPT support to paging_tmpl.h.
paging_tmpl.h contains the code for reading and writing page tables. The code
for 32-bit and 64-bit tables is very similar, but not identical, so
paging_tmpl.h is #include'd twice in mmu.c, once with PTTTYPE=32 and once
with PTTYPE=64, and this generates the two sets of similar functions.
There are subtle but important differences between the format of EPT tables
and that of ordinary x86 64-bit page tables, so for nested EPT we need a
third set of functions to read the guest EPT table and to write the shadow
EPT table.
So this patch adds third PTTYPE, PTTYPE_EPT, which creates functions (prefixed
with "EPT") which correctly read and write EPT tables.
