2b110b6164 KVM: x86: Add blurb to CPUID tracepoint when using max basic leaf values
Tack on "used max basic" at the end of the CPUID tracepoint when the
output values correspond to the max basic leaf, i.e. when emulating
Intel's out-of-range CPUID behavior.  Observing "cpuid entry not found"
in the tracepoint with non-zero output values is confusing for users
that aren't familiar with the out-of-range semantics, and qualifying the
"not found" case hopefully makes it clear that "found" means "found the
exact entry".

e7adda2810 KVM: x86: Add requested index to the CPUID tracepoint
Output the requested index when tracing CPUID emulation; it's basically
mandatory for leafs where the index is meaningful, and is helpful for
verifying KVM correctness even when the index isn't meaningful, e.g. the
trace for a Linux guest's hypervisor_cpuid_base() probing appears to
be broken (returns all zeroes) at first glance, but is correct because
the index is non-zero, i.e. the output values correspond to a random
index in the maximum basic leaf.

ab56f8e62d kvm: svm: Introduce GA Log tracepoint for AVIC
GA Log tracepoint is useful when debugging AVIC performance
issue as it can be used with perf to count the number of times
IOMMU AVIC injects interrupts through the slow-path instead of
directly inject interrupts to the target vcpu.

c9b8b07cde KVM: x86: Dynamically allocate per-vCPU emulation context
Allocate the emulation context instead of embedding it in struct
kvm_vcpu_arch.

Dynamic allocation provides several benefits:

  - Shrinks the size x86 vcpus by ~2.5k bytes, dropping them back below
    the PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER threshold.
  - Allows for dropping the include of kvm_emulate.h from asm/kvm_host.h
    and moving kvm_emulate.h into KVM's private directory.
  - Allows a reducing KVM's attack surface by shrinking the amount of
    vCPU data that is exposed to usercopy.
  - Allows a future patch to disable the emulator entirely, which may or
    may not be a realistic endeavor.

Mark the entire struct as valid for usercopy to maintain existing
behavior with respect to hardened usercopy.  Future patches can shrink
the usercopy range to cover only what is necessary.

380e0055bc KVM: nVMX: trace nested VM-Enter failures detected by H/W
Use the recently added tracepoint for logging nested VM-Enter failures
instead of spamming the kernel log when hardware detects a consistency
check failure.  Take the opportunity to print the name of the error code
instead of dumping the raw hex number, but limit the symbol table to
error codes that can reasonably be encountered by KVM.

Add an equivalent tracepoint in nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw(), e.g. so
that tracing of "invalid control field" errors isn't suppressed when
nested early checks are enabled.

5497b95567 KVM: nVMX: add tracepoint for failed nested VM-Enter
Debugging a failed VM-Enter is often like searching for a needle in a
haystack, e.g. there are over 80 consistency checks that funnel into
the "invalid control field" error code.  One way to expedite debug is
to run the buggy code as an L1 guest under KVM (and pray that the
failing check is detected by KVM).  However, extracting useful debug
information out of L0 KVM requires attaching a debugger to KVM and/or
modifying the source, e.g. to log which check is failing.

Make life a little less painful for VMM developers and add a tracepoint
for failed VM-Enter consistency checks.  Ideally the tracepoint would
capture both what check failed and precisely why it failed, but logging
why a checked failed is difficult to do in a generic tracepoint without
resorting to invasive techniques, e.g. generating a custom string on
failure.  That being said, for the vast majority of VM-Enter failures
the most difficult step is figuring out exactly what to look at, e.g.
figuring out which bit was incorrectly set in a control field is usually
not too painful once the guilty field as been identified.

To reach a happy medium between precision and ease of use, simply log
the code that detected a failed check, using a macro to execute the
check and log the trace event on failure.  This approach enables tracing
arbitrary code, e.g. it's not limited to function calls or specific
formats of checks, and the changes to the existing code are minimally
invasive.  A macro with a two-character name is desirable as usage of
the macro doesn't result in overly long lines or confusing alignment,
while still retaining some amount of readability.  I.e. a one-character
name is a little too terse, and a three-character name results in the
contents being passed to the macro aligning with an indented line when
the macro is used an in if-statement, e.g.:

        if (VCC(nested_vmx_check_long_line_one(...) &&
                nested_vmx_check_long_line_two(...)))
                return -EINVAL;

And that is the story of how the CC(), a.k.a. Consistency Check, macro
got its name.

4f75bcc332 KVM: X86: Tune PLE Window tracepoint
The PLE window tracepoint triggers even if the window is not changed,
and the wording can be a bit confusing too.  One example line:

  kvm_ple_window: vcpu 0: ple_window 4096 (shrink 4096)

It easily let people think of "the window now is 4096 which is
shrinked", but the truth is the value actually didn't change (4096).

Let's only dump this message if the value really changed, and we make
the message even simpler like:

  kvm_ple_window: vcpu 4 old 4096 new 8192 (growed)

c5c5d6fae0 KVM: VMX: Change ple_window type to unsigned int
The VMX ple_window is 32 bits wide, so logically it can overflow with
an int.  The module parameter is declared as unsigned int which is
good, however the dynamic variable is not.  Switching all the
ple_window references to use unsigned int.

The tracepoint changes will also affect SVM, but SVM is using an even
smaller width (16 bits) so it's always fine.

7a223e06b1 KVM: x86: avoid misreporting level-triggered irqs as edge-triggered in tracing
In __apic_accept_irq() interface trig_mode is int and actually on some code
paths it is set above u8:

kvm_apic_set_irq() extracts it from 'struct kvm_lapic_irq' where trig_mode
is u16. This is done on purpose as e.g. kvm_set_msi_irq() sets it to
(1 << 15) & e->msi.data

kvm_apic_local_deliver sets it to reg & (1 << 15).

Fix the immediate issue by making 'tm' into u16. We may also want to adjust
__apic_accept_irq() interface and use proper sizes for vector, level,
trig_mode but this is not urgent.

it allows the compiler to search for headers in the top of $(srctree),

The reason of having -I. here is to make the incorrectly set

TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH should be a relative path to the define_trace.h

8644f771e0 x86/kvm/hyper-v: direct mode for synthetic timers
Turns out Hyper-V on KVM (as of 2016) will only use synthetic timers
if direct mode is available. With direct mode we notify the guest by
asserting APIC irq instead of sending a SynIC message.

The implementation uses existing vec_bitmap for letting lapic code
know that we're interested in the particular IRQ's EOI request. We assume
that the same APIC irq won't be used by the guest for both direct mode
stimer and as sint source (especially with AutoEOI semantics). It is
unclear how things should be handled if that's not true.

Direct mode is also somewhat less expensive; in my testing
stimer_send_msg() takes not less than 1500 cpu cycles and
stimer_notify_direct() can usually be done in 300-400. WS2016 without
Hyper-V, however, always sticks to non-direct version.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

ce7a058a21 KVM: x86: support using the vmx preemption timer for tsc deadline timer
The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer.
The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit
will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires.

When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use
an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU
thread is unblocked.

This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host
timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math
(for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion)
and a cheaper VMexit.  This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs.

[A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average
 latency from cyclictest.  I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency
 from kvm-unit-tests, and measured

 - ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still
   statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts
   just after programming the TSC deadline timer

 - ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case
   where the test busy waits.

 I removed the VMX bits from Yunhong's patch, to concentrate them in the
 next patch - Paolo]

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Small release overall.

  x86:

  s390:
   - polling for interrupts after a VCPU goes to halted state is now
     enabled for s390
   - use hardware provided information about facility bits that do not
     need any hypervisor activity, and other fixes for cpu models and
     facilities
   - improve perf output
   - floating interrupt controller improvements.

  MIPS:
   - miscellaneous fixes

  PPC:
   - bugfixes only

  ARM:
   - 16K page size support
   - generic firmware probing layer for timer and GIC

  Christoffer Dall (KVM-ARM maintainer) says:
    "There are a few changes in this pull request touching things
     outside KVM, but they should all carry the necessary acks and it
     made the merge process much easier to do it this way."

  though actually the irqchip maintainers' acks didn't make it into the

1ed95e52d9 x86/vdso: Remove direct HPET access through the vDSO
Allowing user code to map the HPET is problematic.  HPET
implementations are notoriously buggy, and there are probably many
machines on which even MMIO reads from bogus HPET addresses are
problematic.

We have a report that the Dell Precision M2800 with:

  ACPI: HPET 0x00000000C8FE6238 000038 (v01 DELL   CBX3  01072009 AMI. 00000005)

is either so slow when accessing the HPET or actually hangs in some
regard, causing soft lockups to be reported if users do unexpected
things to the HPET.

The vclock HPET code has also always been a questionable speedup.
Accessing an HPET is exceedingly slow (on the order of several
microseconds), so the added overhead in requiring a syscall to read
the HPET is a small fraction of the total code of accessing it.

To avoid future problems, let's just delete the code entirely.

In the long run, this could actually be a speedup.  Waiman Long as a
patch to optimize the case where multiple CPUs contend for the HPET,
but that won't help unless all the accesses are mediated by the
kernel.

489223edf2 kvm: Add a tracepoint write_tsc_offset
Add a tracepoint write_tsc_offset for tracing TSC offset change.
We want to merge ftrace's trace data of guest OSs and the host OS using
TSC for timestamp in chronological order. We need "TSC offset" values for
each guest when merge those because the TSC value on a guest is always the
host TSC plus guest's TSC offset. If we get the TSC offset values, we can
calculate the host TSC value for each guest events from the TSC offset and
the event TSC value. The host TSC values of the guest events are used when we
want to merge trace data of guests and the host in chronological order.
(Note: the trace_clock of both the host and the guest must be set x86-tsc in
this case)

This tracepoint also records vcpu_id which can be used to merge trace data for
SMP guests. A merge tool will read TSC offset for each vcpu, then the tool
converts guest TSC values to host TSC values for each vcpu.

TSC offset is stored in the VMCS by vmx_write_tsc_offset() or
vmx_adjust_tsc_offset(). KVM executes the former function when a guest boots.
The latter function is executed when kvm clock is updated. Only host can read
TSC offset value from VMCS, so a host needs to output TSC offset value
when TSC offset is changed.

Since the TSC offset is not often changed, it could be overwritten by other
frequent events while tracing. To avoid that, I recommend to use a special
instance for getting this event:

1. set a instance before booting a guest
 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances
 # mkdir tsc_offset
 # cd tsc_offset
 # echo x86-tsc > trace_clock
 # echo 1 > events/kvm/kvm_write_tsc_offset/enable

2. boot a guest

b48aa97e38 KVM: x86: require matched TSC offsets for master clock
With master clock, a pvclock clock read calculates:

ret = system_timestamp + [ (rdtsc + tsc_offset) - tsc_timestamp ]

Where 'rdtsc' is the host TSC.

system_timestamp and tsc_timestamp are unique, one tuple
per VM: the "master clock".

Given a host with synchronized TSCs, its obvious that
guest TSC must be matched for the above to guarantee monotonicity.

Allow master clock usage only if guest TSCs are synchronized.

d828199e84 KVM: x86: implement PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT pvclock flag
KVM added a global variable to guarantee monotonicity in the guest.
One of the reasons for that is that the time between

	1. ktime_get_ts(&timespec);
	2. rdtscll(tsc);

Is variable. That is, given a host with stable TSC, suppose that
two VCPUs read the same time via ktime_get_ts() above.

The time required to execute 2. is not the same on those two instances
executing in different VCPUS (cache misses, interrupts...).

If the TSC value that is used by the host to interpolate when
calculating the monotonic time is the same value used to calculate
the tsc_timestamp value stored in the pvclock data structure, and
a single <system_timestamp, tsc_timestamp> tuple is visible to all
vcpus simultaneously, this problem disappears. See comment on top
of pvclock_update_vm_gtod_copy for details.

Monotonicity is then guaranteed by synchronicity of the host TSCs
and guest TSCs.

Set TSC stable pvclock flag in that case, allowing the guest to read
clock from userspace.

b102f1d0f1 tracing/kvm: Use __print_hex() for kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint
The kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint used __print_insn()
for printing its instructions. However it makes the
format of the event hard to parse as it reveals TP
internals.

Fortunately, kernel provides __print_hex for almost
same purpose, we can use it instead of open coding
it. The user-space can be changed to parse it later.

That means raw kernel tracing will not be affected
by this change:

ae7a2a3fb6 KVM: host side for eoi optimization
Implementation of PV EOI using shared memory.
This reduces the number of exits an interrupt
causes as much as by half.

The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory,
that tells the guest that it does not need EOI.
We set it before injecting an interrupt and clear
before injecting a nested one. Guest tests it using
a test and clear operation - this is necessary
so that host can detect interrupt nesting -
and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR.

There's a new MSR to set the address of said register
in guest memory. Otherwise not much changed:
- Guest EOI is not required
- Register is tested & ISR is automatically cleared on exit

For testing results see description of previous patch
'kvm_para: guest side for eoi avoidance'.

0d460ffc09 KVM: Use __print_symbolic() for vmexit tracepoints
The vmexit tracepoints format the exit_reason to make it human-readable.
Since the exit_reason depends on the instruction set (vmx or svm),
formatting is handled with ftrace_print_symbols_seq() by referring to
the appropriate exit reason table.

However, the ftrace_print_symbols_seq() function is not meant to be used
directly in tracepoints since it does not export the formatting table
which userspace tools like trace-cmd and perf use to format traces.

In practice perf dies when formatting vmexit-related events and
trace-cmd falls back to printing the numeric value (with extra
formatting code in the kvm plugin to paper over this limitation).  Other
userspace consumers of vmexit-related tracepoints would be in similar
trouble.

To avoid significant changes to the kvm_exit tracepoint, this patch
moves the vmx and svm exit reason tables into arch/x86/kvm/trace.h and
selects the right table with __print_symbolic() depending on the
instruction set.  Note that __print_symbolic() is designed for exporting
the formatting table to userspace and allows trace-cmd and perf to work.

e097e5ffd6 KVM: Record instruction set in all vmexit tracepoints
The kvm_exit tracepoint recently added the isa argument to aid decoding
exit_reason.  The semantics of exit_reason depend on the instruction set
(vmx or svm) and the isa argument allows traces to be analyzed on other
machines.

Add the isa argument to kvm_nested_vmexit and kvm_nested_vmexit_inject
so these tracepoints can also be self-describing.
