Changes for KVM for arm/arm64 for 3.18
This includes a bunch of changes:
- Support read-only memory slots on arm/arm64
- Various changes to fix Sparse warnings
- Correctly detect write vs. read Stage-2 faults
- Various VGIC cleanups and fixes
- Dynamic VGIC data strcuture sizing
- Fix SGI set_clear_pend offset bug
- Fix VTTBR_BADDR Mask
- Correctly report the FSC on Stage-2 faults
Conflicts:

[duplicate, different patch where the kvm-arm version broke x86.

When we catch something that's not a permission fault or a translation
fault, we log the unsupported FSC in the kernel log, but we were masking
off the bottom bits of the FSC which was not very helpful.
Also correctly report the FSC for data and instruction faults rather
than telling people it was a DFCS, which doesn't exist in the ARM ARM.

[ Modified from Joel's original patch to be based on PHYS_MASK_SHIFT
instead of a hard-coded value and to move the alignment check of the
allocation to mmu.c. Also added a comment explaining why we hardcode

the 40 bit IPA range instead of the maximum possible 48 bit PA range.

In order to make the APIC access page migratable, stop pinning it in
memory.
And because the APIC access page is not pinned in memory, we can
remove kvm_arch->apic_access_page. When we need to write its
physical address into vmcs, we use gfn_to_page() to get its page
struct, which is needed to call page_to_phys(); the page is then
immediately unpinned.

Currently, the APIC access page is pinned by KVM for the entire life
of the guest. We want to make it migratable in order to make memory
hot-unplug available for machines that run KVM.
This patch prepares to handle this for the case where there is no nested
virtualization, or where the nested guest does not have an APIC page of
its own. All accesses to kvm->arch.apic_access_page are changed to go
through kvm_vcpu_reload_apic_access_page.
If the APIC access page is invalidated when the host is running, we update
the VMCS in the next guest entry.
If it is invalidated when the guest is running, the MMU notifier will force
an exit, after which we will handle everything as in the previous case.
If it is invalidated when a nested guest is running, the request will update
either the VMCS01 or the VMCS02. Updating the VMCS01 is done at the
next L2->L1 exit, while updating the VMCS02 is done in prepare_vmcs02.

1. We were calling clear_flush_young_notify in unmap_one, but we are
within an mmu notifier invalidate range scope. The spte exists no more
(due to range_start) and the accessed bit info has already been
propagated (due to kvm_pfn_set_accessed). Simply call
clear_flush_young.
2. We clear_flush_young on a primary MMU PMD, but this may be mapped
as a collection of PTEs by the secondary MMU (e.g. during log-dirty).
This required expanding the interface of the clear_flush_young mmu
notifier, so a lot of code has been trivially touched.
3. In the absence of shadow_accessed_mask (e.g. EPT A bit), we emulate
the access bit by blowing the spte. This requires proper synchronizing
with MMU notifier consumers, like every other removal of spte's does.

On x86_64, kernel text mappings are mapped read-only with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
In that case, KVM will fail to patch VMCALL instructions to VMMCALL
as required on AMD processors.
The failure mode is currently a divide-by-zero exception, which obviously
is a KVM bug that has to be fixed. However, picking the right instruction
between VMCALL and VMMCALL will be faster and will help if you cannot upgrade
the hypervisor.

vcpu ioctls can hang the calling thread if issued while a vcpu is running.
However, invalid ioctls can happen when userspace tries to probe the kind
of file descriptors (e.g. isatty() calls ioctl(TCGETS)); in that case,
we know the ioctl is going to be rejected as invalid anyway and we can
fail before trying to take the vcpu mutex.
This patch does not change functionality, it just makes invalid ioctls
fail faster.

When KVM handles a tdp fault it uses FOLL_NOWAIT. If the guest memory
has been swapped out or is behind a filemap, this will trigger async
readahead and return immediately. The rationale is that KVM will kick
back the guest with an "async page fault" and allow for some other
guest process to take over.
If async PFs are enabled the fault is retried asap from an async
workqueue. If not, it's retried immediately in the same code path. In
either case the retry will not relinquish the mmap semaphore and will
block on the IO. This is a bad thing, as other mmap semaphore users
now stall as a function of swap or filemap latency.
This patch ensures both the regular and async PF path re-enter the
fault allowing for the mmap semaphore to be relinquished in the case
of IO wait.

/me got confused between the kernel and QEMU. In the kernel, you can
only have one module_init function, and it will prevent unloading the
module unless you also have the corresponding module_exit function.
So, commit 80ce1639727e (KVM: VFIO: register kvm_device_ops dynamically,
2014-09-02) broke unloading of the kvm module, by adding a module_init
function and no module_exit.
Repair it by making kvm_vfio_ops_init weak, and checking it in

The kvmppc_get_last_inst function recently received a facelift that allowed
us to pass an enum of the type of instruction we want to read into it rather
than an unreadable boolean.
Unfortunately, not all callers ended up passing the enum. This wasn't really
an issue as "true" and "false" happen to match the two enum values we have,
but it's still hard to read.
Update all callers of kvmppc_get_last_inst() to follow the new calling

ePAPR represents hardware threads as cpu node properties in device tree.
So with existing QEMU, hardware threads are simply exposed as vcpus with
one hardware thread.
The e6500 core shares TLBs between hardware threads. Without tlb write
conditional instruction, the Linux kernel uses per core mechanisms to
protect against duplicate TLB entries.
The guest is unable to detect real siblings threads, so it can't use the
TLB protection mechanism. An alternative solution is to use the hypervisor
to allocate different lpids to guest's vcpus that runs simultaneous on real
siblings threads. On systems with two threads per core this patch halves
the size of the lpid pool that the allocator sees and use two lpids per VM.
Use even numbers to speedup vcpu lpid computation with consecutive lpids
per VM: vm1 will use lpids 2 and 3, vm2 lpids 4 and 5, and so on.

This patch emulates debug registers and debug exception
to support guest using debug resource. This enables running
gdb/kgdb etc in guest.
On BOOKE architecture we cannot share debug resources between QEMU and
guest because:
When QEMU is using debug resources then debug exception must
be always enabled. To achieve this we set MSR_DE and also set
MSRP_DEP so guest cannot change MSR_DE.
When emulating debug resource for guest we want guest
to control MSR_DE (enable/disable debug interrupt on need).
So above mentioned two configuration cannot be supported
at the same time. So the result is that we cannot share
debug resources between QEMU and Guest on BOOKE architecture.
In the current design QEMU gets priority over guest, this means that if
QEMU is using debug resources then guest cannot use them and if guest is
using debug resource then QEMU can overwrite them.

Add AltiVec support in KVM for Book3e. FPU support gracefully reuse host
infrastructure so follow the same approach for AltiVec.
Book3e specification defines shared interrupt numbers for SPE and AltiVec
units. Still SPE is present in e200/e500v2 cores while AltiVec is present in
e6500 core. So we can currently decide at compile-time which of the SPE or
AltiVec units to support exclusively by using CONFIG_SPE_POSSIBLE and
CONFIG_PPC_E500MC defines. As Alexander Graf suggested, keep SPE and AltiVec
exception handlers distinct to improve code readability.
Guests have the privilege to enable AltiVec, so we always need to support
AltiVec in KVM and implicitly in host to reflect interrupts and to save/restore
the unit context. KVM will be loaded on cores with AltiVec unit only if
CONFIG_ALTIVEC is defined. Use this define to guard KVM AltiVec logic.
