Now that the code is in place for KVM to support MIPS SIMD Architecutre
(MSA) in MIPS guests, wire up the new KVM_CAP_MIPS_MSA capability.
For backwards compatibility, the capability must be explicitly enabled
in order to detect or make use of MSA from the guest.
The capability is not supported if the hardware supports MSA vector
partitioning, since the extra support cannot be tested yet and it
extends the state that the userland program would have to save.

Add KVM register numbers for the MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) registers,
and implement access to them with the KVM_GET_ONE_REG / KVM_SET_ONE_REG
ioctls when the MSA capability is enabled (exposed in a later patch) and
present in the guest according to its Config3.MSAP bit.
The MSA vector registers use the same register numbers as the FPU
registers except with a different size (128bits). Since MSA depends on
Status.FR=1, these registers are inaccessible when Status.FR=0. These
registers are returned as a single native endian 128bit value, rather
than least significant half first with each 64-bit half native endian as
the kernel uses internally.

Add guest exception handling for MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) floating
point exceptions and MSA disabled exceptions.
MSA floating point exceptions from the guest need passing to the guest
kernel, so for these a guest MSAFPE is emulated.
MSA disabled exceptions are normally handled by passing a reserved
instruction exception to the guest (because no guest MSA was supported),
but the hypervisor can now handle them if the guest has MSA by passing
an MSA disabled exception to the guest, or if the guest has MSA enabled
by transparently restoring the guest MSA context and enabling MSA and
the FPU.

Emulate MSA related parts of COP0 interface so that the guest will be
able to enable/disable MSA (Config5.MSAEn) once the MSA capability has
been wired up.
As with the FPU (Status.CU1) setting Config5.MSAEn has no immediate
effect if the MSA state isn't live, as MSA state is restored lazily on
first use. Changes after the MSA state has been restored take immediate
effect, so that the guest can start getting MSA disabled exceptions
right away for guest MSA operations. The MSA state is saved lazily too,
as MSA may get re-enabled in the near future anyway.
A special case is also added for when Status.CU1 is set while FR=0 and
the MSA state is live. In this case we are at risk of getting reserved
instruction exceptions if we try and save the MSA state, so we lose the
MSA state sooner while MSA is still usable.

Add base code for supporting the MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) in MIPS
KVM guests. MSA cannot yet be enabled in the guest, we're just laying
the groundwork.
As with the FPU, whether the guest's MSA context is loaded is stored in
another bit in the fpu_inuse vcpu member. This allows MSA to be disabled
when the guest disables it, but keeping the MSA context loaded so it
doesn't have to be reloaded if the guest re-enables it.
New assembly code is added for saving and restoring the MSA context,
restoring only the upper half of the MSA context (for if the FPU context
is already loaded) and for saving/clearing and restoring MSACSR (which
can itself cause an MSA FP exception depending on the value). The MSACSR
is restored before returning to the guest if MSA is already enabled, and
the existing FP exception die notifier is extended to catch the possible
MSA FP exception and step over the ctcmsa instruction.
The helper function kvm_own_msa() is added to enable MSA and restore
the MSA context if it isn't already loaded, which will be used in a
later patch when the guest attempts to use MSA for the first time and
triggers an MSA disabled exception.
The existing FPU helpers are extended to handle MSA. kvm_lose_fpu()
saves the full MSA context if it is loaded (which includes the FPU
context) and both kvm_lose_fpu() and kvm_drop_fpu() disable MSA.
kvm_own_fpu() also needs to lose any MSA context if FR=0, since there
would be a risk of getting reserved instruction exceptions if CU1 is
enabled and we later try and save the MSA context. We shouldn't usually
hit this case since it will be handled when emulating CU1 changes,
however there's nothing to stop the guest modifying the Status register
directly via the comm page, which will cause this case to get hit.

Emulate FPU related parts of COP0 interface so that the guest will be
able to enable/disable the following once the FPU capability has been
wired up:
- The FPU (Status.CU1)
- 64-bit FP register mode (Status.FR)
- Hybrid FP register mode (Config5.FRE)
Changing Status.CU1 has no immediate effect if the FPU state isn't live,
as the FPU state is restored lazily on first use. After that, changes
take place immediately in the host Status.CU1, so that the guest can
start getting coprocessor unusable exceptions right away for guest FPU
operations if it is disabled. The FPU state is saved lazily too, as the
FPU may get re-enabled in the near future anyway.
Any change to Status.FR causes the FPU state to be discarded and FPU
disabled, as the register state is architecturally UNPREDICTABLE after
such a change. This should also ensure that the FPU state is fully
initialised (with stale state, but that's fine) when it is next used in
the new FP mode.
Any change to the Config5.FRE bit is immediately updated in the host
state so that the guest can get the relevant exceptions right away for
single-precision FPU operations.

state will become architecturally UNPREDICTABLE (change of FR mode) to

Add Config4 and Config5 co-processor 0 registers, and add capability to
write the Config1, Config3, Config4, and Config5 registers using the KVM
API.
Only supported bits can be written, to minimise the chances of the guest
being given a configuration from e.g. QEMU that is inconsistent with
that being emulated, and as such the handling is in trap_emul.c as it
may need to be different for VZ. Currently the only modification
permitted is to make Config4 and Config5 exist via the M bits, but other
bits will be added for FPU and MSA support in future patches.
Care should be taken by userland not to change bits without fully
handling the possible extra state that may then exist and which the
guest may begin to use and depend on.

Trap instructions are used by Linux to implement BUG_ON(), however KVM
doesn't pass trap exceptions on to the guest if they occur in guest
kernel mode, instead triggering an internal error "Exception Code: 13,
not yet handled". The guest kernel then doesn't get a chance to print
the usual BUG message and stack trace.
Implement handling of the trap exception so that it gets passed to the
guest and the user is left with a more useful log message.

Guest user mode can generate a guest MSA Disabled exception on an MSA
capable core by simply trying to execute an MSA instruction. Since this
exception is unknown to KVM it will be passed on to the guest kernel.
However guest Linux kernels prior to v3.15 do not set up an exception
handler for the MSA Disabled exception as they don't support any MSA
capable cores. This results in a guest OS panic.
Since an older processor ID may be being emulated, and MSA support is
not advertised to the guest, the correct behaviour is to generate a
Reserved Instruction exception in the guest kernel so it can send the
guest process an illegal instruction signal (SIGILL), as would happen
with a non-MSA-capable core.
Fix this as minimally as reasonably possible by preventing
kvm_mips_check_privilege() from relaying MSA Disabled exceptions from
guest user mode to the guest kernel, and handling the MSA Disabled
exception by emulating a Reserved Instruction exception in the guest,
via a new handle_msa_disabled() KVM callback.

Currently the guest exit trace event saves the VCPU pointer to the
structure, and the guest PC is retrieved by dereferencing it when the
event is printed rather than directly from the trace record. This isn't
safe as the printing may occur long afterwards, after the PC has changed
and potentially after the VCPU has been freed. Usually this results in
the same (wrong) PC being printed for multiple trace events. It also
isn't portable as userland has no way to access the VCPU data structure
when interpreting the trace record itself.
Lets save the actual PC in the structure so that the correct value is
accessible later.

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"

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.

The FPU and DSP are enabled via the CP0 Status CU1 and MX bits by
kvm_mips_set_c0_status() on a guest exit, presumably in case there is
active state that needs saving if pre-emption occurs. However neither of
these bits are cleared again when returning to the guest.
This effectively gives the guest access to the FPU/DSP hardware after
the first guest exit even though it is not aware of its presence,
allowing FP instructions in guest user code to intermittently actually
execute instead of trapping into the guest OS for emulation. It will
then read & manipulate the hardware FP registers which technically
belong to the user process (e.g. QEMU), or are stale from another user
process. It can also crash the guest OS by causing an FP exception, for
which a guest exception handler won't have been registered.
First lets save and disable the FPU (and MSA) state with lose_fpu(1)
before entering the guest. This simplifies the problem, especially for
when guest FPU/MSA support is added in the future, and prevents FR=1 FPU
state being live when the FR bit gets cleared for the guest, which
according to the architecture causes the contents of the FPU and vector
registers to become UNPREDICTABLE.
We can then safely remove the enabling of the FPU in
kvm_mips_set_c0_status(), since there should never be any active FPU or
MSA state to save at pre-emption, which should plug the FPU leak.
DSP state is always live rather than being lazily restored, so for that
it is simpler to just clear the MX bit again when re-entering the guest.

Ensure any hardware page table walker (HTW) is disabled while in KVM
guest mode, as KVM doesn't yet set up hardware page table walking for
guest mappings so the wrong mappings would get loaded, resulting in the
guest hanging or crashing once it reaches userland.
The HTW is disabled and re-enabled around the call to
__kvm_mips_vcpu_run() which does the initial switch into guest mode and
the final switch out of guest context. Additionally it is enabled for
the duration of guest exits (i.e. kvm_mips_handle_exit()), getting
disabled again before returning back to guest or host.
In all cases the HTW is only disabled in normal kernel mode while
interrupts are disabled, so that the HTW doesn't get left disabled if
the process is preempted.

The return value of kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate is not checked in its
caller. This is okay, because only x86 provides vcpu_postcreate right
now and it could only fail if vcpu_load failed. But that is not
possible during KVM_CREATE_VCPU (kvm_arch_vcpu_load is void, too), so
just get rid of the unchecked return value.

SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification
efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable.
The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new
Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making
use of SRCU are selected.
If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all.

kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu()
kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy()
kvm_arch_vcpu_free()
2) kvm_put_kvm()
kvm_destroy_vm()
kvm_arch_destroy_vm()
kvm_mips_free_vcpus()
kvm_arch_vcpu_free()
Neither of the paths handles VCPU free. We need to do it in
kvm_arch_vcpu_free() corresponding to the memory allocation in
kvm_arch_vcpu_create().

Fix build errors when DEBUG is defined in arch/mips/kvm/.
- The DEBUG code in kvm_mips_handle_tlbmod() was missing some variables.
- The DEBUG code in kvm_mips_host_tlb_write() was conditional on an

- The DEBUG code in kvm_mips_host_tlb_inv() accessed asid_map directly
rather than using kvm_mips_get_user_asid(). Also fixed brace

Expose the KVM guest CP0_Count frequency to userland via a new
KVM_REG_MIPS_COUNT_HZ register accessible with the KVM_{GET,SET}_ONE_REG
ioctls.
When the frequency is altered the bias is adjusted such that the guest
CP0_Count doesn't jump discontinuously or lose any timer interrupts.

Expose two new virtual registers to userland via the
KVM_{GET,SET}_ONE_REG ioctls.
KVM_REG_MIPS_COUNT_CTL is for timer configuration fields and just
contains a master disable count bit. This can be used by userland to
freeze the timer in order to read a consistent state from the timer
count value and timer interrupt pending bit. This cannot be done with
the CP0_Cause.DC bit because the timer interrupt pending bit (TI) is
also in CP0_Cause so it would be impossible to stop the timer without
also risking a race with an hrtimer interrupt and having to explicitly
check whether an interrupt should have occurred.
When the timer is re-enabled it resumes without losing time, i.e. the
CP0_Count value jumps to what it would have been had the timer not been
disabled, which would also be impossible to do from userland with
CP0_Cause.DC. The timer interrupt also cannot be lost, i.e. if a timer
interrupt would have occurred had the timer not been disabled it is
queued when the timer is re-enabled.
This works by storing the nanosecond monotonic time when the master
disable is set, and using it for various operations instead of the
current monotonic time (e.g. when recalculating the bias when the
CP0_Count is set), until the master disable is cleared again, i.e. the
timer state is read/written as it would have been at that time. This
state is exposed to userland via the read-only KVM_REG_MIPS_COUNT_RESUME
virtual register so that userland can determine the exact time the
master disable took effect.
This should allow userland to atomically save the state of the timer,
and later restore it.
