To reduce dependence on the MMU write lock, don't rely on the assumption
that the atomic operation in kvm_tdp_mmu_get_root will always succeed.
By not relying on that assumption, threads do not need to hold the MMU
lock in write mode in order to take a reference on a TDP MMU root.
In the root iterator, this change means that some roots might have to be
skipped if they are found to have a zero refcount. This will still never
happen as of this patch, but a future patch will need that flexibility to
make the root iterator safe under the MMU read lock.

Move the hva->gfn lookup for MMU notifiers into common code. Every arch
does a similar lookup, and some arch code is all but identical across
multiple architectures.
In addition to consolidating code, this will allow introducing
optimizations that will benefit all architectures without incurring
multiple walks of the memslots, e.g. by taking mmu_lock if and only if a
relevant range exists in the memslots.
The use of __always_inline to avoid indirect call retpolines, as done by
x86, may also benefit other architectures.
Consolidating the lookups also fixes a wart in x86, where the legacy MMU
and TDP MMU each do their own memslot walks.
Lastly, future enhancements to the memslot implementation, e.g. to add an
interval tree to track host address, will need to touch far less arch
specific code.
MIPS, PPC, and arm64 will be converted one at a time in future patches.

Use a basic NOT+AND sequence to clear the Accessed bit in TDP MMU SPTEs,
as opposed to the fancy ffs()+clear_bit() logic that was copied from the
legacy MMU. The legacy MMU uses clear_bit() because it is operating on
the SPTE itself, i.e. clearing needs to be atomic. The TDP MMU operates
on a local variable that it later writes to the SPTE, and so doesn't need
to be atomic or even resident in memory.
Opportunistically drop unnecessary initialization of new_spte, it's
guaranteed to be written before being accessed.
Using NOT+AND instead of ffs()+clear_bit() reduces the sequence from:

Pass the address space ID to TDP MMU's primary "zap gfn range" helper to
allow the MMU notifier paths to iterate over memslots exactly once.
Currently, both the legacy MMU and TDP MMU iterate over memslots when
looking for an overlapping hva range, which can be quite costly if there
are a large number of memslots.
Add a "flush" parameter so that iterating over multiple address spaces
in the caller will continue to do the right thing when yielding while a
flush is pending from a previous address space.
Note, this also has a functional change in the form of coalescing TLB
flushes across multiple address spaces in kvm_zap_gfn_range(), and also
optimizes the TDP MMU to utilize range-based flushing when running as L1
with Hyper-V enlightenments.

Prevent the TDP MMU from yielding when zapping a gfn range during NX
page recovery. If a flush is pending from a previous invocation of the
zapping helper, either in the TDP MMU or the legacy MMU, but the TDP MMU
has not accumulated a flush for the current invocation, then yielding
will release mmu_lock with stale TLB entries.
That being said, this isn't technically a bug fix in the current code, as
the TDP MMU will never yield in this case. tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched()
will yield if and only if it has made forward progress, as defined by the
current gfn vs. the last yielded (or starting) gfn. Because zapping a
single shadow page is guaranteed to (a) find that page and (b) step
sideways at the level of the shadow page, the TDP iter will break its loop
before getting a chance to yield.
But that is all very, very subtle, and will break at the slightest sneeze,
e.g. zapping while holding mmu_lock for read would break as the TDP MMU
wouldn't be guaranteed to see the present shadow page, and thus could step
sideways at a lower level.

In tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched there is a call to tdp_iter_start which

been freed in the interim.
The tdp_iter_start call is not very clear and something of a hack. It
requires exposing tdp_iter fields not used elsewhere in tdp_mmu.c and
the effect is not obvious from the function name. Factor a more aptly

are no futher changes to the SPTE before the post-loop flush. If the

that the contents of the old and new pages are identical, thus it's safe
to let the guest continue reading both the old and new pages. KVM must
only ensure the old page cannot be referenced after returning from its

roots failed to allocate.
Add a comment to make_mmu_pages_available() to call out that the limit

"available".

If mmu_lock is held for write, don't bother setting !PRESENT SPTEs to
REMOVED_SPTE when recursively zapping SPTEs as part of shadow page
removal. The concurrent write protections provided by REMOVED_SPTE are
not needed, there are no backing page side effects to record, and MMIO
SPTEs can be left as is since they are protected by the memslot
generation, not by ensuring that the MMIO SPTE is unreachable (which
is racy with respect to lockless walks regardless of zapping behavior).
Skipping !PRESENT drastically reduces the number of updates needed to
tear down sparsely populated MMUs, e.g. when tearing down a 6gb VM that
didn't touch much memory, 6929/7168 (~96.6%) of SPTEs were '0' and could
be skipped.
Avoiding the write itself is likely close to a wash, but avoiding
__handle_changed_spte() is a clear-cut win as that involves saving and
restoring all non-volatile GPRs (it's a subtly big function), as well as
several conditional branches before bailing out.

Stop setting dirty bits for MMU pages when dirty logging is disabled for

This means that spurious PML entries will be created for memslots with

dirty bits are set only when a dirty logging is turned off, i.e. memslots
that are never dirty logged will have dirty bits cleared.
In the end, it's faster overall to eat a few spurious PML entries in the
window where dirty logging is being disabled across all memslots.

When zapping SPTEs in order to rebuild them as huge pages, use the new
helper that computes the max mapping level to detect whether or not a
SPTE should be zapped. Doing so avoids zapping SPTEs that can't
possibly be rebuilt as huge pages, e.g. due to hardware constraints,
memslot alignment, etc...
This also avoids zapping SPTEs that are still large, e.g. if migration
was canceled before write-protected huge pages were shattered to enable
dirty logging. Note, such pages are still write-protected at this time,
i.e. a page fault VM-Exit will still occur. This will hopefully be
addressed in a future patch.
Sadly, TDP MMU loses its const on the memslot, but that's a pervasive
problem that's been around for quite some time.

Zap SPTEs that are backed by ZONE_DEVICE pages when zappings SPTEs to
rebuild them as huge pages in the TDP MMU. ZONE_DEVICE huge pages are
managed differently than "regular" pages and are not compound pages.
Likewise, PageTransCompoundMap() will not detect HugeTLB, so switch
to PageCompound().
This matches the similar check in kvm_mmu_zap_collapsible_spte.

When retpolines are enabled they have high overhead in the inner loop
inside kvm_handle_hva_range() that iterates over the provided memory area.
Let's mark this function and its TDP MMU equivalent __always_inline so
compiler will be able to change the call to the actual handler function
inside each of them into a direct one.
This significantly improves performance on the unmap test on the existing
kernel memslot code (tested on a Xeon 8167M machine):
30 slots in use:
Test Before After Improvement
Unmap 0.0353s 0.0334s 5%
Unmap 2M 0.00104s 0.000407s 61%

Unmap 0.0742s 0.0740s None
Unmap 2M 0.00221s 0.00159s 28%
Looks like having an indirect call in these functions (and, so, a
retpoline) might have interfered with unrolling of the whole loop in the

[Introduce virt/kvm/mmu_lock.h - Paolo]
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
In order to enable concurrent modifications to the paging structures in
the TDP MMU, threads must be able to safely remove pages of page table
memory while other threads are traversing the same memory. To ensure
threads do not access PT memory after it is freed, protect PT memory
with RCU.
Protecting concurrent accesses to page table memory from use-after-free
bugs could also have been acomplished using
walk_shadow_page_lockless_begin/end() and READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES,
coupling with the barriers in a TLB flush. The use of RCU for this case
has several distinct advantages over that approach.
1. Disabling interrupts for long running operations is not desirable.
Future commits will allow operations besides page faults to operate
without the exclusive protection of the MMU lock and those operations
are too long to disable iterrupts for their duration.
2. The use of RCU here avoids long blocking / spinning operations in
perfromance critical paths. By freeing memory with an asynchronous
RCU API we avoid the longer wait times TLB flushes experience when
overlapping with a thread in walk_shadow_page_lockless_begin/end().
3. RCU provides a separation of concerns when removing memory from the
paging structure. Because the RCU callback to free memory can be
scheduled immediately after a TLB flush, there's no need for the
thread to manually free a queue of pages later, as commit_zap_pages
does.

Many TDP MMU functions which need to perform some action on all TDP MMU
roots hold a reference on that root so that they can safely drop the MMU
lock in order to yield to other threads. However, when releasing the
reference on the root, there is a bug: the root will not be freed even
if its reference count (root_count) is reduced to 0.
To simplify acquiring and releasing references on TDP MMU root pages, and
to ensure that these roots are properly freed, move the get/put operations
into another TDP MMU root iterator macro.
Moving the get/put operations into an iterator macro also helps
simplify control flow when a root does need to be freed. Note that using
the list_for_each_entry_safe macro would not have been appropriate in
this situation because it could keep a pointer to the next root across
an MMU lock release + reacquire, during which time that root could be
freed.

This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao
<lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1]
KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps
are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page
information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live
migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty
pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of
dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is
paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a
large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming,
as is copying the bitmap to user-space.
A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory
is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for
each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace
and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros.
The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of
guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in
kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy
harvesting.
This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be
easily extended to other archs as well.

search the paging structure for mappings that could be re-constituted
into a large page mapping. Zap those mappings so that they can be
faulted in again at a higher mapping level.

Dirty logging is a key feature of the KVM MMU and must be supported by
the TDP MMU. Add support for both the write protection and PML dirty
logging modes.

In order to interoperate correctly with the rest of KVM and other Linux
subsystems, the TDP MMU must correctly handle various MMU notifiers. Add
a hook and handle the change_pte MMU notifier.

In order to interoperate correctly with the rest of KVM and other Linux
subsystems, the TDP MMU must correctly handle various MMU notifiers. The
main Linux MM uses the access tracking MMU notifiers for swap and other
features. Add hooks to handle the test/flush HVA (range) family of
MMU notifiers.

Add functions to handle page faults in the TDP MMU. These page faults
are currently handled in much the same way as the x86 shadow paging
based MMU, however the ordering of some operations is slightly
different. Future patches will add eager NX splitting, a fast page fault
handler, and parallel page faults.

Add functions to zap SPTEs to the TDP MMU. These are needed to tear down
TDP MMU roots properly and implement other MMU functions which require
tearing down mappings. Future patches will add functions to populate the
page tables, but as for this patch there will not be any work for these
functions to do.

The existing bookkeeping done by KVM when a PTE is changed is spread
around several functions. This makes it difficult to remember all the
stats, bitmaps, and other subsystems that need to be updated whenever a
PTE is modified. When a non-leaf PTE is marked non-present or becomes a
leaf PTE, page table memory must also be freed. To simplify the MMU and
facilitate the use of atomic operations on SPTEs in future patches, create
functions to handle some of the bookkeeping required as a result of
a change.

The TDP MMU must be able to allocate paging structure root pages and track
the usage of those pages. Implement a similar, but separate system for root
page allocation to that of the x86 shadow paging implementation. When
future patches add synchronization model changes to allow for parallel
page faults, these pages will need to be handled differently from the
x86 shadow paging based MMU's root pages.

The TDP MMU offers an alternative mode of operation to the x86 shadow
paging based MMU, optimized for running an L1 guest with TDP. The TDP MMU
will require new fields that need to be initialized and torn down. Add
hooks into the existing KVM MMU initialization process to do that
initialization / cleanup. Currently the initialization and cleanup
fucntions do not do very much, however more operations will be added in
future patches.
