The GITS_IIDR revision field is used to encode the migration ABI
revision. So we need to restore it to check the table layout is
readable by the destination.
By writing the IIDR, userspace thus forces the ABI revision to be
used and this must be less than or equal to the max revision KVM
supports.

We plan to support different migration ABIs, ie. characterizing
the ITS table layout format in guest RAM. For example, a new ABI
will be needed if vLPIs get supported for nested use case.
So let's introduce an array of supported ABIs (at the moment a single
ABI is supported though). The following characteristics are foreseen
to vary with the ABI: size of table entries, save/restore operation,
the way abi settings are applied.
By default the MAX_ABI_REV is applied on its creation. In subsequent
patches we will introduce a way for the userspace to change the ABI
in use.
The entry sizes now are set according to the ABI version and not
hardcoded anymore.

For some time now we have been having a lot of shared functionality
between the arm and arm64 KVM support in arch/arm, which not only
required a horrible inter-arch reference from the Makefile in
arch/arm64/kvm, but also created confusion for newcomers to the code
base, as was recently seen on the mailing list.
Further, it causes confusion for things like cscope, which needs special
attention to index specific shared files for arm64 from the arm tree.
Move the shared files into virt/kvm/arm and move the trace points along
with it. When moving the tracepoints we have to modify the way the vgic
creates definitions of the trace points, so we take the chance to
include the VGIC tracepoints in its very own special vgic trace.h file.

When emulating a GICv2-on-GICv3, special care must be taken to only
save/restore VMCR_EL2 when ICC_SRE_EL1.SRE is cleared. Otherwise,
all Group-0 interrupts end-up being delivered as FIQ, which is
probably not what the guest expects, as demonstrated here with
an unhappy EFI:
FIQ Exception at 0x000000013BD21CC4
This means that we cannot perform the load/put trick when dealing
with VMCR_EL2 (because the host has SRE set), and we have to deal
with it in the world-switch.
Fortunately, this is not the most common case (modern guests should
be able to deal with GICv3 directly), and the performance is not worse
than what it was before the VMCR optimization.

If you're running with a userspace gic or other interrupt controller
(that is no vgic in the kernel), then you have so far not been able to
use the architected timers, because the output of the architected
timers, which are driven inside the kernel, was a kernel-only construct
between the arch timer code and the vgic.
This patch implements the new KVM_CAP_ARM_USER_IRQ feature, where we use a
side channel on the kvm_run structure, run->s.regs.device_irq_level, to
always notify userspace of the timer output levels when using a userspace
irqchip.
This works by ensuring that before we enter the guest, if the timer
output level has changed compared to what we last told userspace, we
don't enter the guest, but instead return to userspace to notify it of
the new level. If we are exiting, because of an MMIO for example, and
the level changed at the same time, the value is also updated and
userspace can sample the line as it needs. This is nicely achieved
simply always updating the timer_irq_level field after the main run
loop.
Note that the kvm_timer_update_irq trace event is changed to show the
host IRQ number for the timer instead of the guest IRQ number, because
the kernel no longer know which IRQ userspace wires up the timer signal
to.
Also note that this patch implements all required functionality but does
not yet advertise the capability.

One of the goals behind the VGIC redesign was to get rid of cached or

ourselves to precompute the pending value of an IRQ based on the line
level and pending latch state. However, this has now become difficult
to base proper GICv3 save/restore on, because there is a potential to
modify the pending state without knowing if an interrupt is edge or
level configured.
See the following post and related message for more background:
https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/pipermail/kvmarm/2017-January/023195.html
This commit gets rid of the precomputed pending field in favor of a
function that calculates the value when needed, irq_is_pending().
The soft_pending field is renamed to pending_latch to represent that
this latch is the equivalent hardware latch which gets manipulated by
the input signal for edge-triggered interrupts and when writing to the
SPENDR/CPENDR registers.
After this commit save/restore code should be able to simply restore the
pending_latch state, line_level state, and config state in any order and
get the desired result.

HCR_EL2.E2H bit. EL1PCEN and EL1PCTEN are 1st and 0th bits when E2H is

In fact, on VHE we only need to set those bits once, not for every world

When a VCPU blocks (WFI) and has programmed the vtimer, we program a
soft timer to expire in the future to wake up the vcpu thread when
appropriate. Because such as wake up involves a vcpu kick, and the
timer expire function can get called from interrupt context, and the
kick may sleep, we have to schedule the kick in the work function.
The work function currently has a warning that gets raised if it turns
out that the timer shouldn't fire when it's run, which was added because
the idea was that in that case the work should never have been cancelled.
However, it turns out that this whole thing is racy and we can get
spurious warnings. The problem is that we clear the armed flag in the
work function, which may run in parallel with the
kvm_timer_unschedule->timer_disarm() call. This results in a possible
situation where the timer_disarm() call does not call
cancel_work_sync(), which effectively synchronizes the completion of the
work function with running the VCPU. As a result, the VCPU thread
proceeds before the work function completees, causing changes to the
timer state such that kvm_timer_should_fire(vcpu) returns false in the
work function.
All we do in the work function is to kick the VCPU, and an occasional
rare extra kick never harmed anyone. Since the race above is extremely
rare, we don't bother checking if the race happens but simply remove the
check and the clearing of the armed flag from the work function.

Pull timer type cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:
"This series does a tree wide cleanup of types related to
timers/timekeeping.
- Get rid of cycles_t and use a plain u64. The type is not really
helpful and caused more confusion than clarity
- Get rid of the ktime union. The union has become useless as we use
the scalar nanoseconds storage unconditionally now. The 32bit
timespec alike storage got removed due to the Y2038 limitations
some time ago.
That leaves the odd union access around for no reason. Clean it up.
Both changes have been done with coccinelle and a small amount of
manual mopping up"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
ktime: Get rid of ktime_equal()
ktime: Cleanup ktime_set() usage
ktime: Get rid of the union
clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t
There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is
unambiguous.
Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script:
@rem@
@@
-typedef u64 cycle_t;
@fix@
typedef cycle_t;
@@
-cycle_t
+u64

When the state names got added a script was used to add the extra argument
to the calls. The script basically converted the state constant to a
string, but the cleanup to convert these strings into meaningful ones did
not happen.
Replace all the useless strings with 'subsys/xxx/yyy:state' strings which
are used in all the other places already.
