Right now there is a potential hang situation for postcopy migrations,
if the guest is enabling storage keys on the target system during the
postcopy process.
For storage key virtualization, we have to forbid the empty zero page as
the storage key is a property of the physical page frame. As we enable
storage key handling lazily we then drop all mappings for empty zero
pages for lazy refaulting later on.
This does not work with the postcopy migration, which relies on the
empty zero page never triggering a fault again in the future. The reason
is that postcopy migration will simply read a page on the target system
if that page is a known zero page to fault in an empty zero page. At
the same time postcopy remembers that this page was already transferred
- so any future userfault on that page will NOT be retransmitted again
to avoid races.
If now the guest enters the storage key mode while in postcopy, we will
break this assumption of postcopy.
The solution is to disable the empty zero page for KVM guests early on
and not during storage key enablement. With this change, the postcopy
migration process is guaranteed to start after no zero pages are left.
As guest pages are very likely not empty zero pages anyway the memory
overhead is also pretty small.
While at it this also adds proper page table locking to the zero page
removal.

The z/VM hypervisor provides virtual disks (VDISK) which are backed by
main memory of the hypervisor. Those devices are seen as DASD FBA disks
within the Linux guest.
Whenever data is written to such a device, memory is allocated
on-the-fly by z/VM accordingly. This memory, however, is not being freed
if data on the device is deleted by the guest OS.
In order to make memory usable after deletion again, add discard support
to the FBA discipline.
While at it, update comments regarding the DASD_FEATURE_* flags.

Unsigned long long and unsigned long were different in size for 31-bit.
For 64-bit the size for both datatypes is 8 Bytes and since the support
for 31-bit is long gone we can clean up a little and change everything
to unsigned long.
Change get_phys_clock() along the way to accept unsigned long as well so
that the DASD code can be consistent.

Specifying the 'novx' kernel parameter always results in a warning:

If memory is fragmented it is unlikely that large order memory
allocations succeed. This has been an issue with the vmcp device
driver since a long time, since it requires large physical contiguous
memory ares for large responses.
To hopefully resolve this issue make use of the contiguous memory
allocator (cma). This patch adds a vmcp specific vmcp cma area with a
default size of 4MB. The size can be changed either via the
VMCP_CMA_SIZE config option at compile time or with the "vmcp_cma"
kernel parameter (e.g. "vmcp_cma=16m").
For any vmcp response buffers larger than 16k memory from the cma area
will be allocated. If such an allocation fails, there is a fallback to
the buddy allocator.

According to the CP Programming Services manual Diagnose Code 8
"Virtual Console Function" can be used in all addressing modes. Also
the input and output buffers do not have a limitation which specifies
they need to be below the 2GB line.
This is true at least since z/VM 5.4.
Therefore remove the sam31/64 instructions and allow for simple
GFP_KERNEL allocations. This makes it easier to allocate a 1MB page
if the user requested such a large return buffer.

Memory blocks that contain areas for the contiguous memory allocator
(cma) should not be allowed to go offline. Otherwise this would render
cma completely useless.
This might make sense on other architectures where memory might be
taken offline due to hardware errors, but not on architectures which
support memory hotplug for load balancing.

clang doesn't like s390 specific inline assembler constraints. These
are present in our arch specific uapi/asm/swab.h which again is
required by some ebpf test cases.
For current compiler versions the generic swab.h already makes use of
gcc's builtin functions. Therefore we can simply remove our own header
file and use the generic one.
This will generate worse code if used with compilers before gcc 4.8,
which has no __builtin_bswap16(); or before gcc v4.4, which has no
__builtin_bswap[32|64](). For these cases a C implementation fallback
would be used which generates more code, but is still correct (170KB
extra code for gcc 4.3 with performance_defconfig).
However given that we need (and want) to get rid of the inline
assemblies anyway in order to be able to use clang, the above is just
a minor drawback if old gcc compilers are used.
With current compilers there is close to zero difference, except for
three btrfs bit functions which generate more out-of-line code. The
generated code looks still correct and also uses the s390 specific
byteswap instructions.

NIAI instruction. With NIAI-8 it is possible to pin a cache-line on a
CPU for a small amount of time, NIAI-7 releases the cache-line again.
Finally NIAI-4 can be used to prevent the CPU to speculatively access

The TOD epoch extension adds 8 epoch bits to the TOD clock to provide
a continuous clock after 2042/09/17. The store-clock-extended (STCKE)
instruction will store the epoch index in the first byte of the
16 bytes stored by the instruction. The read_boot_clock64 and the
read_presistent_clock64 functions need to take the additional bits
into account to give the correct result after 2042/09/17.
The clock-comparator register will stay 64 bit wide. The comparison
of the clock-comparator with the TOD clock is limited to bytes
1 to 8 of the extended TOD format. To deal with the overflow problem
due to an epoch change the clock-comparator sign control in CR0 can
be used to switch the comparison of the 64-bit TOD clock with the
clock-comparator to a signed comparison.
The decision between the signed vs. unsigned clock-comparator
comparisons is done at boot time. Only if the TOD clock is in the
second half of a 142 year epoch the signed comparison is used.
This solves the epoch overflow issue as long as the machine is
booted at least once in an epoch.

Add various defines like e.g. _REGION1_SHIFT to reflect the hardware
mmu. We have quite a bit code that does not make use of the Linux
memory management primitives but directly modifies page, segment and
region values.
Most of this is open-coded like e.g. "1UL << 53". In order to clean
this up introduce a couple of new defines. The existing Linux memory
management defines are changed, so the mapping to the hardware
implementation is reflected.

The ESSA instruction has a new option that allows to tag pages that
are not used as a page table. Without the tag the hypervisor has to
assume that any guest page could be used in a page table inside the
guest. This forces the hypervisor to flush all guest TLB entries
whenever a host page table entry is invalidated. With the tag
the host can skip the TLB flush if the page is tagged as normal page.

We have 2 functions using the same sched_task callback:
- PEBS drain for free running counters
- LBR save/store
Both of them are called from intel_pmu_sched_task() and
either of them can be unwillingly triggered when the
other one is configured to run.
Let's say there's PEBS drain configured in sched_task
callback for the event, but in the callback itself
(intel_pmu_sched_task()) we will also run the code for
LBR save/restore, which we did not ask for, but the
code in intel_pmu_sched_task() does not check for that.
This can lead to extra cycles in some perf monitoring,
like when we monitor PEBS event without LBR data.
# perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p ./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000
(We need PEBS, non freq/non timestamp event to enable
the sched_task callback)
The perf stat of cycles and msr:write_msr for above
command before the change:
...
Performance counter stats for './perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p \
./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000' (5 runs):
18,519,557,441 cycles:k
91,195,527 msr:write_msr
29.334476406 seconds time elapsed
And after the change:
...
Performance counter stats for './perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p \
./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000' (5 runs):
18,704,973,540 cycles:k
27,184,720 msr:write_msr
16.977875900 seconds time elapsed
There's no affect on cycles:k because the sched_task happens
with events switched off, however the msr:write_msr tracepoint
counter together with almost 50% of time speedup show the
improvement.
Monitoring LBR event and having extra PEBS drain processing
in sched_task callback showed just a little speedup, because
the drain function does not do much extra work in case there
is no PEBS data.
Adding conditions to recognize the configured work that needs
to be done in the x86_pmu's sched_task callback.

We could now remove a few 'addressof' operators (since arrays naturally
degrade to pointers), but this is the minimal patch that just changes
the C prototypes of those template arrays (the templates themselves are
defined in inline asm).

If the SynIC timer message delivery fails due to SINT message slot being
busy, there's no point to attempt starting the timer again until we're
notified of the slot being released by the guest (via EOM or EOI).
Even worse, when a oneshot timer fails to deliver its message, its
re-arming with an expiration time in the past leads to immediate retry
of the delivery, and so on, without ever letting the guest vcpu to run
and release the slot, which results in a livelock.
To avoid that, only start the timer when there's no timer message
pending delivery. When there is, meaning the slot is busy, the
processing will be restarted upon notification from the guest that the
slot is released.

This can be reproduced by EPT=1, unrestricted_guest=N, emulate_invalid_state=Y
or EPT=0, the trace of kvm-unit-tests/taskswitch2.flat is like below, it tries
to emulate invalid guest state task-switch:
kvm_exit: reason TASK_SWITCH rip 0x0 info 40000058 0
kvm_emulate_insn: 42000:0:0f 0b (0x2)
kvm_emulate_insn: 42000:0:0f 0b (0x2) failed
kvm_inj_exception: #UD (0x0)
kvm_entry: vcpu 0
kvm_exit: reason TASK_SWITCH rip 0x0 info 40000058 0
kvm_emulate_insn: 42000:0:0f 0b (0x2)
kvm_emulate_insn: 42000:0:0f 0b (0x2) failed
kvm_inj_exception: #UD (0x0)
......................
It appears that the task-switch emulation updates rflags (and vm86
flag) only after the segments are loaded, causing vmx->emulation_required
to be set, when in fact invalid guest state emulation is not needed.
This patch fixes it by updating vmx->emulation_required after the
rflags (and vm86 flag) is updated in task-switch emulation.
Thanks Radim for moving the update to vmx__set_flags and adding Paolo's
suggestion for the check.

The way how default DMA pool is exposed has changed and now we need to
use dedicated interface to work with it. This patch makes alloc/release
operations to use such interface. Since, default DMA pool is not
handled by generic code anymore we have to implement our own mmap
operation.
