An unrestricted guest can run with CR0.PG==0 and/or CR0.PE==0,
e.g. it can run in Real Mode without requiring host emulation.
The RM TSS is only used for emulating RM, i.e. it will never
be used when unrestricted guest is enabled and so doesn't need
to be configured.

Hyper-V 2016 on KVM with SynIC enabled doesn't boot with the following
trace:
kvm_entry: vcpu 0

kvm_hv_synic_set_msr: vcpu_id 0 msr 0x40000090 data 0x10000 host 0
kvm_msr: msr_write 40000090 = 0x10000 (#GP)

KVM acts according to the following statement from TLFS:
"

Valid values for vector are 16-255 inclusive. Specifying an invalid
vector number results in #GP.
"
However, I checked and genuine Hyper-V doesn't #GP when we write 0x10000
to SINTx. I checked with Microsoft and they confirmed that if either the
Masked bit (bit 16) or the Polling bit (bit 18) is set to 1, then they
ignore the value of Vector. Make KVM act accordingly.

Nested Hyper-V/Windows guest running on top of KVM will use TSC page
clocksource in two cases:
- L0 exposes invariant TSC (CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]).
- L0 provides Hyper-V Reenlightenment support (CPUID.40000003H:EAX[13]).
Exposing invariant TSC effectively blocks migration to hosts with different
TSC frequencies, providing reenlightenment support will be needed when we
start migrating nested workloads.
Implement rudimentary support for reenlightenment MSRs. For now, these are
just read/write MSRs with no effect.

... to avoid having a stale value when handling an EPT misconfig for MMIO
regions.
MMIO regions that are not passed-through to the guest are handled through
EPT misconfigs. The first time a certain MMIO page is touched it causes an
EPT violation, then KVM marks the EPT entry to cause an EPT misconfig
instead. Any subsequent accesses to the entry will generate an EPT
misconfig.
Things gets slightly complicated with nested guest handling for MMIO
regions that are not passed through from L0 (i.e. emulated by L0
user-space).
An EPT violation for one of these MMIO regions from L2, exits to L0
hypervisor. L0 would then look at the EPT12 mapping for L1 hypervisor and
realize it is not present (or not sufficient to serve the request). Then L0
injects an EPT violation to L1. L1 would then update its EPT mappings. The
EXIT_QUALIFICATION value for L1 would come from exit_qualification variable
in "struct vcpu". The problem is that this variable is only updated on EPT
violation and not on EPT misconfig. So if an EPT violation because of a
read happened first, then an EPT misconfig because of a write happened
afterwards. The L0 hypervisor will still contain exit_qualification value
from the previous read instead of the write and end up injecting an EPT
violation to the L1 hypervisor with an out of date EXIT_QUALIFICATION.
The EPT violation that is injected from L0 to L1 needs to have the correct
EXIT_QUALIFICATION specially for the access bits because the individual
access bits for MMIO EPTs are updated only on actual access of this
specific type. So for the example above, the L1 hypervisor will keep
updating only the read bit in the EPT then resume the L2 guest. The L2
guest would end up causing another exit where the L0 *again* will inject
another EPT violation to L1 hypervisor with *again* an out of date
exit_qualification which indicates a read and not a write. Then this
ping-pong just keeps happening without making any forward progress.
The behavior of mapping MMIO regions changed in:
commit a340b3e229b24 ("kvm: Map PFN-type memory regions as writable (if possible)")
... where an EPT violation for a read would also fixup the write bits to
avoid another EPT violation which by acciddent would fix the bug mentioned
above.
This commit fixes this situation and ensures that the access bits for the
exit_qualifcation is up to date. That ensures that even L1 hypervisor
running with a KVM version before the commit mentioned above would still
work.
( The description above assumes EPT to be available and used by L1
hypervisor + the L1 hypervisor is passing through the MMIO region to the L2
guest while this MMIO region is emulated by the L0 user-space ).

The type 'enum kvm_reg_ex' is an extension of 'enum kvm_reg', however
the extension is only semantical and the compiler doesn't know about the
relationship between the two types. In kvm_pdptr_read() a value of the
extended type is passed to kvm_x86_ops->cache_reg(), which expects a
value of the base type. Clang raises the following warning about the
type mismatch:

Devices which use level-triggered interrupts under Windows 2016 with
Hyper-V role enabled don't work: Windows disables EOI broadcast in SPIV
unconditionally. Our in-kernel IOAPIC implementation emulates an old IOAPIC
version which has no EOI register so EOI never happens.
The issue was discovered and discussed a while ago:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg148098.html
While this is a guest OS bug (it should check that IOAPIC has the required
capabilities before disabling EOI broadcast) we can workaround it in KVM:
advertising DIRECTED_EOI with in-kernel IOAPIC makes little sense anyway.

The S390 architecture does not support any graphics hardware,
but with the latest support for Virtio GPU in Linux and Virtio
GPU emulation in QEMU, it's possible to enable graphics for
S390 using the Virtio GPU device.
To enable display we need to enable the Linux Virtual Terminal (VT)
layer for S390. But the VT subsystem initializes quite early
at boot so we need a dummy console driver till the Virtio GPU
driver is initialized and we can run the framebuffer console.
The framebuffer console over a Virtio GPU device can be run
in combination with the serial SCLP console (default on S390).
The SCLP console can still be accessed by management applications
(eg: via Libvirt's virsh console).

On guest exit, and when using GICv2 on GICv3, we use a dsb(st) to
force synchronization between the memory-mapped guest view and
the system-register view that the hypervisor uses.
This is incorrect, as the spec calls out the need for "a DSB whose
required access type is both loads and stores with any Shareability
attribute", while we're only synchronizing stores.
We also lack an isb after the dsb to ensure that the latter has
actually been executed before we start reading stuff from the sysregs.
The fix is pretty easy: turn dsb(st) into dsb(sy), and slap an isb()
just after.

The vgic code is trying to be clever when injecting GICv2 SGIs,
and will happily populate LRs with the same interrupt number if
they come from multiple vcpus (after all, they are distinct
interrupt sources).
Unfortunately, this is against the letter of the architecture,
and the GICv2 architecture spec says "Each valid interrupt stored
in the List registers must have a unique VirtualID for that
virtual CPU interface.". GICv3 has similar (although slightly
ambiguous) restrictions.
This results in guests locking up when using GICv2-on-GICv3, for
example. The obvious fix is to stop trying so hard, and inject
a single vcpu per SGI per guest entry. After all, pending SGIs
with multiple source vcpus are pretty rare, and are mostly seen
in scenario where the physical CPUs are severely overcomitted.
But as we now only inject a single instance of a multi-source SGI per
vcpu entry, we may delay those interrupts for longer than strictly
necessary, and run the risk of injecting lower priority interrupts
in the meantime.
In order to address this, we adopt a three stage strategy:
- If we encounter a multi-source SGI in the AP list while computing
its depth, we force the list to be sorted
- When populating the LRs, we prevent the injection of any interrupt
of lower priority than that of the first multi-source SGI we've
injected.
- Finally, the injection of a multi-source SGI triggers the request
of a maintenance interrupt when there will be no pending interrupt
in the LRs (HCR_NPIE).
At the point where the last pending interrupt in the LRs switches
from Pending to Active, the maintenance interrupt will be delivered,
allowing us to add the remaining SGIs using the same process.

On my GICv3 system, the following is printed to the kernel log at boot:

The KVM IDMAP is a mapping of a statically allocated kernel structure,
and so printing its physical address leaks the physical placement of
the kernel when physical KASLR in effect. So change the kvm_info() to
kvm_debug() to remove it from the log output.
While at it, trim the output a bit more: IRQ numbers can be found in
/proc/interrupts, and the HYP VA and vgic-v2 lines are not highly

We currently don't allow resetting mapped IRQs from userspace, because
their state is controlled by the hardware. But we do need to reset the
state when the VM is reset, so we provide a function for the 'owner' of
the mapped interrupt to reset the interrupt state.
Currently only the timer uses mapped interrupts, so we call this
function from the timer reset logic.

Calling vcpu_load() registers preempt notifiers for this vcpu and calls
kvm_arch_vcpu_load(). The latter will soon be doing a lot of heavy
lifting on arm/arm64 and will try to do things such as enabling the
virtual timer and setting us up to handle interrupts from the timer
hardware.
Loading state onto hardware registers and enabling hardware to signal
interrupts can be problematic when we're not actually about to run the
VCPU, because it makes it difficult to establish the right context when
handling interrupts from the timer, and it makes the register access
code difficult to reason about.
Luckily, now when we call vcpu_load in each ioctl implementation, we can
simply remove the call from the non-KVM_RUN vcpu ioctls, and our
kvm_arch_vcpu_load() is only used for loading vcpu content to the
physical CPU when we're actually going to run the vcpu.

This fixes a bug where the trap number that is returned by
__kvmppc_vcore_entry gets corrupted. The effect of the corruption
is that IPIs get ignored on POWER9 systems when the IPI is sent via
a doorbell interrupt to a CPU which is executing in a KVM guest.
The effect of the IPI being ignored is often that another CPU locks
up inside smp_call_function_many() (and if that CPU is holding a
spinlock, other CPUs then lock up inside raw_spin_lock()).
The trap number is currently held in register r12 for most of the
assembly-language part of the guest exit path. In that path, we
call kvmppc_subcore_exit_guest(), which is a C function, without
restoring r12 afterwards. Depending on the kernel config and the
compiler, it may modify r12 or it may not, so some config/compiler
combinations see the bug and others don't.
To fix this, we arrange for the trap number to be stored on the
stack from the 'guest_bypass:' label until the end of the function,
then the trap number is loaded and returned in r12 as before.

This commit implements an enhanced x86 version of S390
KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS functionality. KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS "allow[s]
userspace to access certain guest registers without having
to call SET/GET_*REGS”. This reduces ioctl overhead which
is particularly important when userspace is making synchronous
guest state modifications (e.g. when emulating and/or intercepting
instructions).
Originally implemented upstream for the S390, the x86 differences
follow:
- userspace can select the register sets to be synchronized with kvm_run
using bit-flags in the kvm_valid_registers and kvm_dirty_registers
fields.
- vcpu_events is available in addition to the regs and sregs register
sets.

In Hyper-V, the fast guest->host notification mechanism is the
SIGNAL_EVENT hypercall, with a single parameter of the connection ID to
signal.
Currently this hypercall incurs a user exit and requires the userspace
to decode the parameters and trigger the notification of the potentially
different I/O context.
To avoid the costly user exit, process this hypercall and signal the
corresponding eventfd in KVM, similar to ioeventfd. The association
between the connection id and the eventfd is established via the newly
introduced KVM_HYPERV_EVENTFD ioctl, and maintained in an

Move kvm.arch.hyperv initialization and cleanup to separate functions.
For now only a mutex is inited in the former, and the latter is empty;
more stuff will go in there in a followup patch.

KVM: s390: Fixes
- Fix random memory corruption when running as guest2 (e.g. KVM in
LPAR) and starting guest3 (nested KVM) with many CPUs (e.g. a nested
guest with 200 vcpu)
- io interrupt delivery counter was not exported

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc
Fixes for PPC KVM:
- Fix guest time accounting in the host
- Fix large-page backing for radix guests on POWER9
- Fix HPT guests on POWER9 backed by 2M or 1G pages
- Compile fixes for some configs and gcc versions

Even if we don't have extended SCA support, we can have more than 64 CPUs
if we don't enable any HW features that might use the SCA entries.
Now, this works just fine, but we missed a return, which is why we
would actually store the SCA entries. If we have more than 64 CPUs, this
means writing outside of the basic SCA - bad.
Let's fix this. This allows > 64 CPUs when running nested (under vSIE)
without random crashes.
Fixes: a6940674c384 ("KVM: s390: allow 255 VCPUs when sca entries aren't used")

Pull x86/pti fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Three fixes related to melted spectrum:
- Sync the cpu_entry_area page table to initial_page_table on 32 bit.
Otherwise suspend/resume fails because resume uses
initial_page_table and triggers a triple fault when accessing the
cpu entry area.
- Zero the SPEC_CTL MRS on XEN before suspend to address a
shortcoming in the hypervisor.
- Fix another switch table detection issue in objtool"

- Add a missing timer wheel clock forward when migrating timers off a
unplugged CPU to prevent operating on a stale clock base and

prevent evaluating unrelated bits
- Make the error return check in the FSL timer driver work correctly.
Checking an unsigned variable for less than zero does not really
work well.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A 4.16 regression fix, three fixes for -stable, and a cleanup fix:
- During the merge window support for the new ACPI NVDIMM Platform
Capabilities structure disabled support for "deep flush", a
force-unit- access like mechanism for persistent memory. Restore
that mechanism.
- VFIO like RDMA is yet one more memory registration / pinning
interface that is incompatible with Filesystem-DAX. Disable long
term pins of Filesystem-DAX mappings via VFIO.
- The Filesystem-DAX detection to prevent long terms pins mistakenly
also disabled Device-DAX pins which are not subject to the same
block- map collision concerns.
- Similar to the setup path, softlockup warnings can trigger in the
shutdown path for large persistent memory namespaces. Teach
for_each_device_pfn() to perform cond_resched() in all cases.
- Boaz noticed that the might_sleep() in dax_direct_access() is stale
as of the v4.15 kernel.
These have received a build success notification from the 0day robot,
and the longterm pin fixes have appeared in -next. However, I recently
rebased the tree to remove some other fixes that need to be reworked
after review feedback.
