The kvm/mmu code shared by arm and arm64 uses kalloc() to allocate
a bounce page (if hypervisor init code crosses page boundary) and
hypervisor PGDs. The problem is that kalloc() does not guarantee
the proper alignment. In the case of the bounce page, the page sized
buffer allocated may also cross a page boundary negating the purpose
and leading to a hang during kvm initialization. Likewise the PGDs
allocated may not meet the minimum alignment requirements of the
underlying MMU. This patch uses __get_free_page() to guarantee the
worst case alignment needs of the bounce page and PGDs on both arm
and arm64.

Pull CPU hotplug notifiers registration fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"The purpose of this single series of commits from Srivatsa S Bhat
(with a small piece from Gautham R Shenoy) touching multiple
subsystems that use CPU hotplug notifiers is to provide a way to
register them that will not lead to deadlocks with CPU online/offline
operations as described in the changelog of commit 93ae4f978ca7f ("CPU

functions").
The first three commits in the series introduce the API and document
it and the rest simply goes through the users of CPU hotplug notifiers
and converts them to using the new method"

From: Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Subject: [PATCH] arm, kvm: Fix CPU hotplug callback registration
Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();
In the existing arm kvm code, there is no synchronization with CPU hotplug
to avoid missing the hotplug events that might occur after invoking
init_hyp_mode() and before calling register_cpu_notifier(). Fix this bug
and also use the new synchronization method (instead of get/put_online_cpus())
to ensure that we don't deadlock with CPU hotplug.

so GCC is a bit overzealous here. Silence it anyway by initializing
pte to NULL and testing it later on.

In order to be able to detect the point where the guest enables
its MMU and caches, trap all the VM related system registers.
Once we see the guest enabling both the MMU and the caches, we
can go back to a saner mode of operation, which is to leave these
registers in complete control of the guest.

So far, KVM/ARM used a fixed HCR configuration per guest, except for
the VI/VF/VA bits to control the interrupt in absence of VGIC.
With the upcoming need to dynamically reconfigure trapping, it becomes
necessary to allow the HCR to be changed on a per-vcpu basis.
The fix here is to mimic what KVM/arm64 already does: a per vcpu HCR
field, initialized at setup time.

Commit 240e99cbd00a (ARM: KVM: Fix 64-bit coprocessor handling)
added an ordering dependency for the 64bit registers.
The order described is: CRn, CRm, Op1, Op2, 64bit-first.
Unfortunately, the implementation is: CRn, 64bit-first, CRm...

Commit 240e99cbd00a (ARM: KVM: Fix 64-bit coprocessor handling)
changed the way we match the 64bit coprocessor access from
user space, but didn't update the trap handler for the same
set of registers.
The effect is that a trapped 64bit access is never matched, leading
to a fault being injected into the guest. This went unnoticed as we
didn't really trap any 64bit register so far.
Placing the CRm field of the access into the CRn field of the matching
structure fixes the problem. Also update the debug feature to emit the
expected string in case of failing match.

When the guest runs with caches disabled (like in an early boot
sequence, for example), all the writes are diectly going to RAM,
bypassing the caches altogether.
Once the MMU and caches are enabled, whatever sits in the cache
becomes suddenly visible, which isn't what the guest expects.
A way to avoid this potential disaster is to invalidate the cache
when the MMU is being turned on. For this, we hook into the SCTLR_EL1
trapping code, and scan the stage-2 page tables, invalidating the
pages/sections that have already been mapped in.

The use of p*d_addr_end with stage-2 translation is slightly dodgy,
as the IPA is 40bits, while all the p*d_addr_end helpers are
taking an unsigned long (arm64 is fine with that as unligned long
is 64bit).
The fix is to introduce 64bit clean versions of the same helpers,
and use them in the stage-2 page table code.

In order for the guest with caches off to observe data written
contained in a given page, we need to make sure that page is
committed to memory, and not just hanging in the cache (as
guest accesses are completely bypassing the cache until it
decides to enable it).
For this purpose, hook into the coherent_icache_guest_page
function and flush the region if the guest SCTLR_EL1
register doesn't show the MMU and caches as being enabled.
The function also get renamed to coherent_cache_guest_page.

Commit 1fcf7ce0c602 (arm: kvm: implement CPU PM notifier) added
support for CPU power-management, using a cpu_notifier to re-init
KVM on a CPU that entered CPU idle.
The code assumed that a CPU entering idle would actually be powered
off, loosing its state entierely, and would then need to be
reinitialized. It turns out that this is not always the case, and
some HW performs CPU PM without actually killing the core. In this
case, we try to reinitialize KVM while it is still live. It ends up
badly, as reported by Andre Przywara (using a Calxeda Midway):
[ 3.663897] Kernel panic - not syncing: unexpected prefetch abort in Hyp mode at: 0x685760
[ 3.663897] unexpected data abort in Hyp mode at: 0xc067d150
[ 3.663897] unexpected HVC/SVC trap in Hyp mode at: 0xc0901dd0
The trick here is to detect if we've been through a full re-init or
not by looking at HVBAR (VBAR_EL2 on arm64). This involves
implementing the backend for __hyp_get_vectors in the main KVM HYP
code (rather small), and checking the return value against the
default one when the CPU notifier is called on CPU_PM_EXIT.

The THP code in KVM/ARM is a bit restrictive in not allowing a THP
to be used if the VMA is not 2MB aligned. Actually, it is not so much
the VMA that matters, but the associated memslot:
A process can perfectly mmap a region with no particular alignment
restriction, and then pass a 2MB aligned address to KVM. In this
case, KVM will only use this 2MB aligned region, and will ignore
the range between vma->vm_start and memslot->userspace_addr.
It can also choose to place this memslot at whatever alignment it
wants in the IPA space. In the end, what matters is the relative
alignment of the user space and IPA mappings with respect to a
2M page. They absolutely must be the same if you want to use THP.

Support creating the ARM VGIC device through the KVM_CREATE_DEVICE
ioctl, which can then later be leveraged to use the
KVM_{GET/SET}_DEVICE_ATTR, which is useful both for setting addresses in
a more generic API than the ARM-specific one and is useful for
save/restore of VGIC state.
Adds KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL to ARM capabilities.
Note that we change the check for creating a VGIC from bailing out if
any VCPUs were created, to bailing out if any VCPUs were ever run. This
is an important distinction that shouldn't break anything, but allows
creating the VGIC after the VCPUs have been created.

Rework the VGIC initialization slightly to allow initialization of the
vgic cpu-specific state even if the irqchip (the VGIC) hasn't been
created by user space yet. This is safe, because the vgic data
structures are already allocated when the CPU is allocated if VGIC
support is compiled into the kernel. Further, the init process does not
depend on any other information and the sacrifice is a slight
performance degradation for creating VMs in the no-VGIC case.
The reason is that the new device control API doesn't mandate creating
the VGIC before creating the VCPU and it is unreasonable to require user
space to create the VGIC before creating the VCPUs.
At the same time move the irqchip_in_kernel check out of
kvm_vcpu_first_run_init and into the init function to make the per-vcpu
and global init functions symmetric and add comments on the exported
functions making it a bit easier to understand the init flow by only
looking at vgic.c.

For migration to work we need to save (and later restore) the state of
each core's virtual generic timer.
Since this is per VCPU, we can use the [gs]et_one_reg ioctl and export
the three needed registers (control, counter, compare value).
Though they live in cp15 space, we don't use the existing list, since
they need special accessor functions and the arch timer is optional.

The current KVM implementation of PSCI returns INVALID_PARAMETERS if the
waitqueue for the corresponding CPU is not active. This does not seem
correct, since KVM should not care what the specific thread is doing,
for example, user space may not have called KVM_RUN on this VCPU yet or
the thread may be busy looping to user space because it received a
signal; this is really up to the user space implementation. Instead we
should check specifically that the CPU is marked as being turned off,
regardless of the VCPU thread state, and if it is, we shall
simply clear the pause flag on the CPU and wake up the thread if it
happens to be blocked for us.
Further, the implementation seems to be racy when executing multiple
VCPU threads. There really isn't a reasonable user space programming
scheme to ensure all secondary CPUs have reached kvm_vcpu_first_run_init
before turning on the boot CPU.
Therefore, set the pause flag on the vcpu at VCPU init time (which can
reasonably be expected to be completed for all CPUs by user space before
running any VCPUs) and clear both this flag and the feature (in case the
feature can somehow get set again in the future) and ping the waitqueue
on turning on a VCPU using PSCI.

Fix percpu vmalloc allocations

Using virt_to_phys on percpu mappings is horribly wrong as it may be
backed by vmalloc. Introduce kvm_kaddr_to_phys which translates both
types of valid kernel addresses to the corresponding physical address.
At the same time resolves a typing issue where we were storing the
physical address as a 32 bit unsigned long (on arm), truncating the
physical address for addresses above the 4GB limit. This caused

Now that the KVM/arm code knows about affinity, remove the hard
limit of 4 vcpus per VM.

The L2CTLR register contains the number of CPUs in this cluster.
Make sure the register content is actually relevant to the vcpu
that is being configured by computing the number of cores that are
part of its cluster.

In order to be able to support more than 4 A7 or A15 CPUs,
we need to fix the MPIDR computing to reflect the fact that
both A15 and A7 can only exist in clusters of at most 4 CPUs.
Fix the MPIDR computing to allow virtual clusters to be exposed
to the guest.

Support transparent huge pages in KVM/ARM and KVM/ARM64. The
transparent_hugepage_adjust is not very pretty, but this is also how
it's solved on x86 and seems to be simply an artifact on how THPs
behave. This should eventually be shared across architectures if
possible, but that can always be changed down the road.

Support huge pages in KVM/ARM and KVM/ARM64. The pud_huge checking on
the unmap path may feel a bit silly as the pud_huge check is always
defined to false, but the compiler should be smart about this.
Note: This deals only with VMAs marked as huge which are allocated by
users through hugetlbfs only. Transparent huge pages can only be
detected by looking at the underlying pages (or the page tables
themselves) and this patch so far simply maps these on a page-by-page
level in the Stage-2 page tables.

Update comments to reflect what is really going on and add the TWE bit
to the comments in kvm_arm.h.
Also renames the function to kvm_handle_wfx like is done on arm64 for
consistency and uber-correctness.

On an (even slightly) oversubscribed system, spinlocks are quickly
becoming a bottleneck, as some vcpus are spinning, waiting for a
lock to be released, while the vcpu holding the lock may not be
running at all.
This creates contention, and the observed slowdown is 40x for
hackbench. No, this isn't a typo.
The solution is to trap blocking WFEs and tell KVM that we're
now spinning. This ensures that other vpus will get a scheduling
boost, allowing the lock to be released more quickly. Also, using
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT slightly improves the performance
when the VM is severely overcommited.
Quick test to estimate the performance: hackbench 1 process 1000
2xA15 host (baseline): 1.843s
2xA15 guest w/o patch: 2.083s
4xA15 guest w/o patch: 80.212s
8xA15 guest w/o patch: Could not be bothered to find out
2xA15 guest w/ patch: 2.102s
4xA15 guest w/ patch: 3.205s
8xA15 guest w/ patch: 6.887s
So we go from a 40x degradation to 1.5x in the 2x overcommit case,
which is vaguely more acceptable.

This patch adds support for running Cortex-A7 guests on Cortex-A7 hosts.
As Cortex-A7 is architecturally compatible with A15, this patch is largely just
generalising existing code. Areas where 'implementation defined' behaviour
is identical for A7 and A15 is moved to allow it to be used by both cores.
The check to ensure that coprocessor register tables are sorted correctly is
also moved in to 'common' code to avoid each new cpu doing its own check
(and possibly forgetting to do so!)

KVM does not have a notion of multiple clusters for CPUs, just a linear
array of CPUs. When using a system with cores in more than one cluster, the
current method for calculating the virtual MPIDR will leak the (physical)
cluster information into the virtual MPIDR. One effect of this is that
Linux under KVM fails to boot multiple CPUs that aren't in the 0th cluster.
This patch does away with exposing the real MPIDR fields in favour of simply
using the virtual CPU number (but preserving the U bit, as before).

For implementing CPU=host, we need a mechanism for querying
preferred VCPU target type on underlying Host.
This patch implements KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET vm ioctl which
returns struct kvm_vcpu_init instance containing information
about preferred VCPU target type and target specific features
available for it.
