struct kvm_userspace_memory_region.flags is a u32 with a comment that
bits 0 ~ 15 are visible to userspace and the other bits are reserved
for kvm internal use. KVM_MEMSLOT_INVALID is the only internal use
flag and it has a comment that bits 16 ~ 31 are internally used and
the other bits are visible to userspace.
Therefore, let's define this as a u32 so we don't waste bytes on LP64
systems. Move to the end of the struct for alignment.

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(×pec);
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.

Prepending irq-unsafe vtime APIs with underscores was actually
a bad idea as the result is a big mess in the API namespace that
is even waiting to be further extended. Also these helpers
are always called from irq safe callers except kvm. Just
provide a vtime_account_system_irqsafe() for this specific
case so that we can remove the underscore prefix on other
vtime functions.

After commit b3356bf0db (KVM: emulator: optimize "rep ins" handling),
the pieces of io data can be collected and write them to the guest memory
or MMIO together
Unfortunately, kvm splits the mmio access into 8 bytes and store them to
vcpu->mmio_fragments. If the guest uses "rep ins" to move large data, it
will cause vcpu->mmio_fragments overflow
The bug can be exposed by isapc (-M isapc):
[23154.818733] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC

Actually, we can use one mmio_fragment to store a large mmio access then
split it when we pass the mmio-exit-info to userspace. After that, we only

Switching to or from guest context is done on ioctl context.
So by the time we call kvm_guest_enter() or kvm_guest_exit()
we know we are not running the idle task.
As a result, we can directly account the cputime using
vtime_account_system().
There are two good reasons to do this:
* We avoid some useless checks on guest switch. It optimizes
a bit this fast path.
* In the case of CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING, calling vtime_account()
checks for irq time to account. This is pointless since we know
we are not in an irq on guest switch. This is wasting cpu cycles
for no good reason. vtime_account_system() OTOH is a no-op in
this config option.
* We can remove the irq disable/enable around kvm guest switch in s390.
A further optimization may consist in introducing a vtime_account_guest()
that directly calls account_guest_time().

Use a naming based on vtime as a prefix for virtual based
cputime accounting APIs:

- account_switch_vtime() -> vtime_task_switch()
It makes it easier to allow for further declension such

want to find out the context we account to from generic code.
This also make it better to know on which subsystem these APIs

To emulate level triggered interrupts, add a resample option to
KVM_IRQFD. When specified, a new resamplefd is provided that notifies
the user when the irqchip has been resampled by the VM. This may, for
instance, indicate an EOI. Also in this mode, posting of an interrupt
through an irqfd only asserts the interrupt. On resampling, the
interrupt is automatically de-asserted prior to user notification.
This enables level triggered interrupts to be posted and re-enabled
from vfio with no userspace intervention.
All resampling irqfds can make use of a single irq source ID, so we
reserve a new one for this interface.

vcpu mutex can be held for unlimited time so
taking it with mutex_lock on an ioctl is wrong:
one process could be passed a vcpu fd and
call this ioctl on the vcpu used by another process,
it will then be unkillable until the owner exits.
Call mutex_lock_killable instead and return status.
Note: mutex_lock_interruptible would be even nicer,
but I am not sure all users are prepared to handle EINTR
from these ioctls. They might misinterpret it as an error.
Cleanup paths expect a vcpu that can't be used by
any userspace so this will always succeed - catch bugs
by calling BUG_ON.
Catch callers that don't check return state by adding
__must_check.

Currently, on a large vcpu guests, there is a high probability of
yielding to the same vcpu who had recently done a pause-loop exit or
cpu relax intercepted. Such a yield can lead to the vcpu spinning
again and hence degrade the performance.
The patchset keeps track of the pause loop exit/cpu relax interception
and gives chance to a vcpu which:
(a) Has not done pause loop exit or cpu relax intercepted at all
(probably he is preempted lock-holder)
(b) Was skipped in last iteration because it did pause loop exit or
cpu relax intercepted, and probably has become eligible now
(next eligible lock holder)

Noting pause loop exited vcpu or cpu relax intercepted helps in
filtering right candidate to yield. Wrong selection of vcpu;
i.e., a vcpu that just did a pl-exit or cpu relax intercepted may
contribute to performance degradation.
