In order to give each vcpu its own view of the SVE registers, this
patch adds context storage via a new sve_state pointer in struct
vcpu_arch. An additional member sve_max_vl is also added for each
vcpu, to determine the maximum vector length visible to the guest
and thus the value to be configured in ZCR_EL2.LEN while the vcpu
is active. This also determines the layout and size of the storage
in sve_state, which is read and written by the same backend
functions that are used for context-switching the SVE state for
host tasks.
On SVE-enabled vcpus, SVE access traps are now handled by switching
in the vcpu's SVE context and disabling the trap before returning
to the guest. On other vcpus, the trap is not handled and an exit
back to the host occurs, where the handle_sve() fallback path
reflects an undefined instruction exception back to the guest,
consistently with the behaviour of non-SVE-capable hardware (as was
done unconditionally prior to this patch).
No SVE handling is added on non-VHE-only paths, since VHE is an
architectural and Kconfig prerequisite of SVE.

This patch adds the necessary support for context switching ZCR_EL1
for each vcpu.
ZCR_EL1 is trapped alongside the FPSIMD/SVE registers, so it makes
sense for it to be handled as part of the guest FPSIMD/SVE context
for context switch purposes instead of handling it as a general
system register. This means that it can be switched in lazily at
the appropriate time. No effort is made to track host context for
this register, since SVE requires VHE: thus the hosts's value for
this register lives permanently in ZCR_EL2 and does not alias the
guest's value at any time.
The Hyp switch and fpsimd context handling code is extended
appropriately.
Accessors are added in sys_regs.c to expose the SVE system
registers and ID register fields. Because these need to be
conditionally visible based on the guest configuration, they are
implemented separately for now rather than by use of the generic
system register helpers. This may be abstracted better later on
when/if there are more features requiring this model.
ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 is RO-RAZ for MRS/MSR when SVE is disabled for the
guest, but for compatibility with non-SVE aware KVM implementations
the register should not be enumerated at all for KVM_GET_REG_LIST
in this case. For consistency we also reject ioctl access to the
register. This ensures that a non-SVE-enabled guest looks the same
to userspace, irrespective of whether the kernel KVM implementation
supports SVE.

The current FPSIMD/SVE context handling support for non-task (i.e.,
KVM vcpu) contexts does not take SVE into account. This means that
only task contexts can safely use SVE at present.
In preparation for enabling KVM guests to use SVE, it is necessary
to keep track of SVE state for non-task contexts too.
This patch adds the necessary support, removing assumptions from
the context switch code about the location of the SVE context
storage.
When binding a vcpu context, its vector length is arbitrarily
specified as SVE_VL_MIN for now. In any case, because TIF_SVE is
presently cleared at vcpu context bind time, the specified vector
length will not be used for anything yet. In later patches TIF_SVE
will be set here as appropriate, and the appropriate maximum vector
length for the vcpu will be passed when binding.

Commit e6b673b ("KVM: arm64: Optimise FPSIMD handling to reduce
guest/host thrashing") uses fpsimd_save() to save the FPSIMD state
for a vcpu when scheduling the vcpu out. However, currently
current's value of TIF_SVE is restored before calling fpsimd_save()
which means that fpsimd_save() may erroneously attempt to save SVE
state from the vcpu. This enables current's vector state to be
polluted with guest data. current->thread.sve_state may be
unallocated or not large enough, so this can also trigger a NULL
dereference or buffer overrun.
Instead of this, TIF_SVE should be configured properly for the
guest when calling fpsimd_save() with the vcpu context loaded.
This patch ensures this by delaying restoration of current's
TIF_SVE until after the call to fpsimd_save().

Commit e6b673b ("KVM: arm64: Optimise FPSIMD handling to reduce
guest/host thrashing") attempts to restore the configuration of
userspace SVE trapping via a call to fpsimd_bind_task_to_cpu(), but
the logic for determining when to do this is not correct.
The patch makes the errnoenous assumption that the only task that
may try to enter userspace with the currently loaded FPSIMD/SVE
register content is current. This may not be the case however: if
some other user task T is scheduled on the CPU during the execution
of the KVM run loop, and the vcpu does not try to use the registers
in the meantime, then T's state may be left there intact. If T
happens to be the next task to enter userspace on this CPU then the
hooks for reloading the register state and configuring traps will
be skipped.
(Also, current never has SVE state at this point anyway and should
always have the trap enabled, as a side-effect of the ioctl()
syscall needed to reach the KVM run loop in the first place.)
This patch instead restores the state of the EL0 trap from the
state observed at the most recent vcpu_load(), ensuring that the
trap is set correctly for the loaded context (if any).

Commit e6b673b ("KVM: arm64: Optimise FPSIMD handling to reduce
guest/host thrashing") introduces a specific helper
kvm_arch_vcpu_put_fp() for saving the vcpu FPSIMD state during
vcpu_put().
This function uses local_bh_disable()/_enable() to protect the
FPSIMD context manipulation from interruption by softirqs.
This approach is not correct, because vcpu_put() can be invoked
either from the KVM host vcpu thread (when exiting the vcpu run
loop), or via a preempt notifier. In the former case, only
preemption is disabled. In the latter case, the function is called
from inside __schedule(), which means that IRQs are disabled.
Use of local_bh_disable()/_enable() with IRQs disabled is considerd
an error, resulting in lockdep splats while running VMs if lockdep
is enabled.
This patch disables IRQs instead of attempting to disable softirqs,
avoiding the problem of calling local_bh_enable() with IRQs
disabled in the __schedule() path. This creates an additional
interrupt blackout during vcpu run loop exit, but this is the rare
case and the blackout latency is still less than that of
__schedule().

This patch adds SVE context saving to the hyp FPSIMD context switch
path. This means that it is no longer necessary to save the host
SVE state in advance of entering the guest, when in use.
In order to avoid adding pointless complexity to the code, VHE is
assumed if SVE is in use. VHE is an architectural prerequisite for
SVE, so there is no good reason to turn CONFIG_ARM64_VHE off in
kernels that support both SVE and KVM.
Historically, software models exist that can expose the
architecturally invalid configuration of SVE without VHE, so if
this situation is detected at kvm_init() time then KVM will be
disabled.

This patch refactors KVM to align the host and guest FPSIMD
save/restore logic with each other for arm64. This reduces the
number of redundant save/restore operations that must occur, and
reduces the common-case IRQ blackout time during guest exit storms
by saving the host state lazily and optimising away the need to
restore the host state before returning to the run loop.
Four hooks are defined in order to enable this:
* kvm_arch_vcpu_run_map_fp():
Called on PID change to map necessary bits of current to Hyp.
* kvm_arch_vcpu_load_fp():
Set up FP/SIMD for entering the KVM run loop (parse as
"vcpu_load fp").
* kvm_arch_vcpu_ctxsync_fp():
Get FP/SIMD into a safe state for re-enabling interrupts after a
guest exit back to the run loop.
For arm64 specifically, this involves updating the host kernel's
FPSIMD context tracking metadata so that kernel-mode NEON use
will cause the vcpu's FPSIMD state to be saved back correctly
into the vcpu struct. This must be done before re-enabling
interrupts because kernel-mode NEON may be used by softirqs.
* kvm_arch_vcpu_put_fp():
Save guest FP/SIMD state back to memory and dissociate from the
CPU ("vcpu_put fp").
Also, the arm64 FPSIMD context switch code is updated to enable it
to save back FPSIMD state for a vcpu, not just current. A few
helpers drive this:
* fpsimd_bind_state_to_cpu(struct user_fpsimd_state *fp):
mark this CPU as having context fp (which may belong to a vcpu)
currently loaded in its registers. This is the non-task
equivalent of the static function fpsimd_bind_to_cpu() in
fpsimd.c.
* task_fpsimd_save():
exported to allow KVM to save the guest's FPSIMD state back to
memory on exit from the run loop.
* fpsimd_flush_state():
invalidate any context's FPSIMD state that is currently loaded.
Used to disassociate the vcpu from the CPU regs on run loop exit.
These changes allow the run loop to enable interrupts (and thus
softirqs that may use kernel-mode NEON) without having to save the
guest's FPSIMD state eagerly.
Some new vcpu_arch fields are added to make all this work. Because
host FPSIMD state can now be saved back directly into current's
thread_struct as appropriate, host_cpu_context is no longer used
for preserving the FPSIMD state. However, it is still needed for
preserving other things such as the host's system registers. To
avoid ABI churn, the redundant storage space in host_cpu_context is
not removed for now.
arch/arm is not addressed by this patch and continues to use its
current save/restore logic. It could provide implementations of
the helpers later if desired.
