Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"First batch of KVM changes for 4.1
The most interesting bit here is irqfd/ioeventfd support for ARM and
ARM64.
Summary:
ARM/ARM64:
fixes for live migration, irqfd and ioeventfd support (enabling
vhost, too), page aging
s390:
interrupt handling rework, allowing to inject all local interrupts
via new ioctl and to get/set the full local irq state for migration
and introspection. New ioctls to access memory by virtual address,
and to get/set the guest storage keys. SIMD support.
MIPS:
FPU and MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) support. Includes some
patches from Ralf Baechle's MIPS tree.
x86:
bugfixes (notably for pvclock, the others are small) and cleanups.
Another small latency improvement for the TSC deadline timer"

kvm_write_guest_cached() does not mark all written pages as dirty and
code comments in kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init() talk about NULL memslot
with cross page accesses. Fix all the easy way.
The check is '<= 1' to have the same result for 'len = 0' cache anywhere
in the page. (nr_pages_needed is 0 on page boundary.)

Currently we have struct kvm_exit_mmio for encapsulating MMIO abort
data to be passed on from syndrome decoding all the way down to the
VGIC register handlers. Now as we switch the MMIO handling to be
routed through the KVM MMIO bus, it does not make sense anymore to
use that structure already from the beginning. So we keep the data in
local variables until we put them into the kvm_io_bus framework.
Then we fill kvm_exit_mmio in the VGIC only, making it a VGIC private
structure. On that way we replace the data buffer in that structure
with a pointer pointing to a single location in a local variable, so
we get rid of some copying on the way.
With all of the virtual GIC emulation code now being registered with
the kvm_io_bus, we can remove all of the old MMIO handling code and
its dispatching functionality.
I didn't bother to rename kvm_exit_mmio (to vgic_mmio or something),
because that touches a lot of code lines without any good reason.
This is based on an original patch by Nikolay.

Using the framework provided by the recent vgic.c changes, we
register a kvm_io_bus device on mapping the virtual GICv3 resources.
The distributor mapping is pretty straight forward, but the
redistributors need some more love, since they need to be tagged with
the respective redistributor (read: VCPU) they are connected with.
We use the kvm_io_bus framework to register one devices per VCPU.

Currently we handle the redistributor registers in two separate MMIO
regions, one for the overall behaviour and SPIs and one for the
SGIs/PPIs. That latter forces the creation of _two_ KVM I/O bus
devices for each redistributor.
Since the spec mandates those two pages to be contigious, we could as
well merge them and save the churn with the second KVM I/O bus device.

The vgic_find_range() function in vgic.c takes a struct kvm_exit_mmio
argument, but actually only used the length field in there. Since we
need to get rid of that structure in that part of the code anyway,
let's rework the function (and it's callers) to pass the length

iodev.h contains definitions for the kvm_io_bus framework. This is
needed both by the generic KVM code in virt/kvm as well as by
architecture specific code under arch/. Putting the header file in
virt/kvm and using local includes in the architecture part seems at
least dodgy to me, so let's move the file into include/kvm, so that a
more natural "#include <kvm/iodev.h>" can be used by all of the code.
This also solves a problem later when using struct kvm_io_device
in arm_vgic.h.
Fixing up the FSF address in the GPL header and a wrong include path

When all bits in mask are not set,
kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked() has nothing to do. But since
it needs to be called from the generic code, it cannot be inlined, and
a few function calls, two when PML is enabled, are wasted.
Since it is common to see many pages remain clean, e.g. framebuffers can
stay calm for a long time, it is worth eliminating this overhead.

When a VCPU is no longer running, we currently check to see if it has a
timer scheduled in the future, and if it does, we schedule a host
hrtimer to notify is in case the timer expires while the VCPU is still
not running. When the hrtimer fires, we mask the guest's timer and
inject the timer IRQ (still relying on the guest unmasking the time when
it receives the IRQ).
This is all good and fine, but when migration a VM (checkpoint/restore)
this introduces a race. It is unlikely, but possible, for the following
sequence of events to happen:
1. Userspace stops the VM
2. Hrtimer for VCPU is scheduled
3. Userspace checkpoints the VGIC state (no pending timer interrupts)
4. The hrtimer fires, schedules work in a workqueue
5. Workqueue function runs, masks the timer and injects timer interrupt
6. Userspace checkpoints the timer state (timer masked)
At restore time, you end up with a masked timer without any timer
interrupts and your guest halts never receiving timer interrupts.
Fix this by only kicking the VCPU in the workqueue function, and sample
the expired state of the timer when entering the guest again and inject
the interrupt and mask the timer only then.

There is an interesting bug in the vgic code, which manifests itself
when the KVM run loop has a signal pending or needs a vmid generation
rollover after having disabled interrupts but before actually switching
to the guest.
In this case, we flush the vgic as usual, but we sync back the vgic
state and exit to userspace before entering the guest. The consequence
is that we will be syncing the list registers back to the software model
using the GICH_ELRSR and GICH_EISR from the last execution of the guest,
potentially overwriting a list register containing an interrupt.
This showed up during migration testing where we would capture a state
where the VM has masked the arch timer but there were no interrupts,
resulting in a hung test.

This patch enables irqfd on arm/arm64.
Both irqfd and resamplefd are supported. Injection is implemented
in vgic.c without routing.
This patch enables CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD and CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD.
KVM_CAP_IRQFD is now advertised. KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE capability
automatically is advertised as soon as CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD is set.
Irqfd injection is restricted to SPI. The rationale behind not
supporting PPI irqfd injection is that any device using a PPI would
be a private-to-the-CPU device (timer for instance), so its state
would have to be context-switched along with the VCPU and would
require in-kernel wiring anyhow. It is not a relevant use case for
irqfds.

Introduce __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_INTC_INITIALIZED define and
associated kvm_arch_intc_initialized function. This latter
allows to test whether the virtual interrupt controller is initialized
and ready to accept virtual IRQ injection. On some architectures,
the virtual interrupt controller is dynamically instantiated, justifying
that kind of check.
The new function can now be used by irqfd to check whether the
virtual interrupt controller is ready on KVM_IRQFD request. If not,
KVM_IRQFD returns -EAGAIN.

Several dts only list "arm,cortex-a7-gic" or "arm,gic-400" in their GIC
compatible list, and while this is correct (and supported by the GIC

POWER supports irqfds but forgot to advertise them. Some userspace does
not check for the capability, but others check it---thus they work on
x86 and s390 but not POWER.
To avoid that other architectures in the future make the same mistake, let
common code handle KVM_CAP_IRQFD the same way as KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE.

Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
"Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.
Common:
Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other
architectures). This can improve latency up to 50% on some
scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes or TCP_RR netperf tests). This
also has to be enabled manually for now, but the plan is to
auto-tune this in the future.
ARM/ARM64:
The highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
tracking
s390:
Several optimizations and bugfixes. Also a first: a feature
exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
MIPS:
Bugfixes.
x86:
Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested
virtualization improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization),
usual round of emulation fixes.
There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.
Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
have already included his tree.
Powerpc:
Nothing yet.
The KVM/PPC changes will come in through the PPC maintainers,
because I haven't received them yet and I might end up being
offline for some part of next week"

We never had a 31bit QEMU/kuli running. We would need to review several
ioctls to check if this creates holes, bugs or whatever to make it work.
Lets just disable compat support for KVM on s390.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

We don't have to write protect guest memory for dirty logging if architecture
supports hardware dirty logging, such as PML on VMX, so rename it to be more
generic.

The dirty patch logging series introduced both
HAVE_KVM_ARCH_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT and KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
config symbols, but only KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT is used.
Just remove the unused one.
(The config symbol was renamed during the development of the patch
series and the old name just creeped in by accident.()

Although the GIC architecture requires us to map the MMIO regions
only at page aligned addresses, we currently do not enforce this from
the kernel side.
Restrict any vGICv2 regions to be 4K aligned and any GICv3 regions
to be 64K aligned. Document this requirement.

With all of the GICv3 code in place now we allow userland to ask the
kernel for using a virtual GICv3 in the guest.
Also we provide the necessary support for guests setting the memory
addresses for the virtual distributor and redistributors.
This requires some userland code to make use of that feature and
explicitly ask for a virtual GICv3.
Document that KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP only works for GICv2, but is
considered legacy and using KVM_CREATE_DEVICE is preferred.
