2008-04-27KVM: MMU: prepopulate guest pages after write-protectingMarcelo Tosatti
Zdenek reported a bug where a looping "dmsetup status" eventually hangs on SMP guests. The problem is that kvm_mmu_get_page() prepopulates the shadow MMU before write protecting the guest page tables. By doing so, it leaves a window open where the guest can mark a pte as present while the host has shadow cached such pte as "notrap". Accesses to such address will fault in the guest without the host having a chance to fix the situation. Fix by moving the write protection before the pte prefetch.

2008-04-27KVM: MMU: Only mark_page_accessed() if the page was accessed by the guestAvi Kivity

2008-04-27s390: KVM guest: virtio device support, and kvm hypercallsChristian Borntraeger
This patch implements kvm guest kernel support for paravirtualized devices and contains two parts: o a basic virtio stub using virtio_ring and external interrupts and hypercalls o full hypercall implementation in kvm_para.h Currently we dont have PCI on s390. Making virtio_pci usable for s390 seems more complicated that providing an own stub. This virtio stub is similar to the lguest one, the memory for the descriptors and the device detection is made via additional mapped memory on top of the guest storage. We use an external interrupt with extint code 0x2603 for host->guest notification. The hypercall definition uses the diag instruction for issuing a hypercall. The parameters are written in R2-R7, the hypercall number is written in R1. This is similar to the system call ABI (svc) which can use R1 for the number and R2-R6 for the parameters.

2008-04-27s390: KVM guest: detect when running on kvmCarsten Otte
This patch adds functionality to detect if the kernel runs under the KVM hypervisor. A macro MACHINE_IS_KVM is exported for device drivers. This allows drivers to skip device detection if the systems runs non-virtualized. We also define a preferred console to avoid having the ttyS0, which is a line mode only console.

2008-04-27KVM: s390: intercepts for diagnose instructionsChristian Borntraeger
This patch introduces interpretation of some diagnose instruction intercepts. Diagnose is our classic architected way of doing a hypercall. This patch features the following diagnose codes: - vm storage size, that tells the guest about its memory layout - time slice end, which is used by the guest to indicate that it waits for a lock and thus cannot use up its time slice in a useful way - ipl functions, which a guest can use to reset and reboot itself In order to implement ipl functions, we also introduce an exit reason that causes userspace to perform various resets on the virtual machine. All resets are described in the principles of operation book, except KVM_S390_RESET_IPL which causes a reboot of the machine.

2008-04-27KVM: s390: interprocessor communication via sigpChristian Borntraeger
This patch introduces in-kernel handling of _some_ sigp interprocessor signals (similar to ipi). kvm_s390_handle_sigp() decodes the sigp instruction and calls individual handlers depending on the operation requested: - sigp sense tries to retrieve information such as existence or running state of the remote cpu - sigp emergency sends an external interrupt to the remove cpu - sigp stop stops a remove cpu - sigp stop store status stops a remote cpu, and stores its entire internal state to the cpus lowcore - sigp set arch sets the architecture mode of the remote cpu. setting to ESAME (s390x 64bit) is accepted, setting to ESA/S390 (s390, 31 or 24 bit) is denied, all others are passed to userland - sigp set prefix sets the prefix register of a remote cpu For implementation of this, the stop intercept indication starts to get reused on purpose: a set of action bits defines what to do once a cpu gets stopped: ACTION_STOP_ON_STOP really stops the cpu when a stop intercept is recognized ACTION_STORE_ON_STOP stores the cpu status to lowcore when a stop intercept is recognized Acked-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2008-04-27KVM: s390: interrupt subsystem, cpu timer, waitpswCarsten Otte
This patch contains the s390 interrupt subsystem (similar to in kernel apic) including timer interrupts (similar to in-kernel-pit) and enabled wait (similar to in kernel hlt). In order to achieve that, this patch also introduces intercept handling for instruction intercepts, and it implements load control instructions. This patch introduces an ioctl KVM_S390_INTERRUPT which is valid for both the vm file descriptors and the vcpu file descriptors. In case this ioctl is issued against a vm file descriptor, the interrupt is considered floating. Floating interrupts may be delivered to any virtual cpu in the configuration. The following interrupts are supported: SIGP STOP - interprocessor signal that stops a remote cpu SIGP SET PREFIX - interprocessor signal that sets the prefix register of a (stopped) remote cpu INT EMERGENCY - interprocessor interrupt, usually used to signal need_reshed and for smp_call_function() in the guest. PROGRAM INT - exception during program execution such as page fault, illegal instruction and friends RESTART - interprocessor signal that starts a stopped cpu INT VIRTIO - floating interrupt for virtio signalisation INT SERVICE - floating interrupt for signalisations from the system service processor struct kvm_s390_interrupt, which is submitted as ioctl parameter when injecting an interrupt, also carrys parameter data for interrupts along with the interrupt type. Interrupts on s390 usually have a state that represents the current operation, or identifies which device has caused the interruption on s390. kvm_s390_handle_wait() does handle waitpsw in two flavors: in case of a disabled wait (that is, disabled for interrupts), we exit to userspace. In case of an enabled wait we set up a timer that equals the cpu clock comparator value and sleep on a wait queue.

2008-04-27KVM: s390: sie intercept handlingChristian Borntraeger
This path introduces handling of sie intercepts in three flavors: Intercepts are either handled completely in-kernel by kvm_handle_sie_intercept(), or passed to userspace with corresponding data in struct kvm_run in case kvm_handle_sie_intercept() returns -ENOTSUPP. In case of partial execution in kernel with the need of userspace support, kvm_handle_sie_intercept() may choose to set up struct kvm_run and return -EREMOTE. The trivial intercept reasons are handled in this patch: handle_noop() just does nothing for intercepts that don't require our support at all handle_stop() is called when a cpu enters stopped state, and it drops out to userland after updating our vcpu state handle_validity() faults in the cpu lowcore if needed, or passes the request to userland Acked-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: s390: arch backend for the kvm kernel moduleHeiko Carstens
This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries (aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each. This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible. The following source files are introduced by this patch arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into sie64a to enter the guest machine context arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest context via SIE, and switches world before and after that include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run virtual machines on the mainframe include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to guest register content arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by later patches Acked-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2008-04-27s390: KVM preparation: host memory management changes for s390 kvmChristian Borntraeger
This patch changes the s390 memory management defintions to use the pgste field for dirty and reference bit tracking of host and guest code. Usually on s390, dirty and referenced are tracked in storage keys, which belong to the physical page. This changes with virtualization: The guest and host dirty/reference bits are defined to be the logical OR of the values for the mapping and the physical page. This patch implements the necessary changes in pgtable.h for s390. There is a common code change in mm/rmap.c, the call to page_test_and_clear_young must be moved. This is a no-op for all architecture but s390. page_referenced checks the referenced bits for the physiscal page and for all mappings: o The physical page is checked with page_test_and_clear_young. o The mappings are checked with ptep_test_and_clear_young and friends. Without pgstes (the current implementation on Linux s390) the physical page check is implemented but the mapping callbacks are no-ops because dirty and referenced are not tracked in the s390 page tables. The pgstes introduces guest and host dirty and reference bits for s390 in the host mapping. These mapping must be checked before page_test_and_clear_young resets the reference bit.

2008-04-27s390: KVM preparation: provide hook to enable pgstes in user pagetableCarsten Otte
The SIE instruction on s390 uses the 2nd half of the page table page to virtualize the storage keys of a guest. This patch offers the s390_enable_sie function, which reorganizes the page tables of a single-threaded process to reserve space in the page table: s390_enable_sie makes sure that the process is single threaded and then uses dup_mm to create a new mm with reorganized page tables. The old mm is freed and the process has now a page status extended field after every page table. Code that wants to exploit pgstes should SELECT CONFIG_PGSTE. This patch has a small common code hit, namely making dup_mm non-static. Edit (Carsten): I've modified Martin's patch, following Jeremy Fitzhardinge's review feedback. Now we do have the prototype for dup_mm in include/linux/sched.h. Following Martin's suggestion, s390_enable_sie() does now call task_lock() to prevent race against ptrace modification of mm_users.
