* Support for guests to access the new POWER9 XIVE interrupt controller
hardware directly, reducing interrupt latency and overhead for guests.
* In-kernel implementation of the H_PAGE_INIT hypercall.
* Reduce memory usage of sparsely-populated IOMMU tables.
* Several bug fixes.
Second PPC KVM update for 5.2
* Fix a bug, fix a spelling mistake, remove some useless code.
There is no need to test for the device pointer validity when releasing
a KVM device. The file descriptor should identify it safely.

In KVM, specially for nested guests, there is a dominant pattern of:
=> map guest memory -> do_something -> unmap guest memory
In addition to all this unnecessarily noise in the code due to boiler plate
code, most of the time the mapping function does not properly handle memory
that is not backed by "struct page". This new guest mapping API encapsulate
most of this boiler plate code and also handles guest memory that is not
backed by "struct page".
The current implementation of this API is using memremap for memory that is
not backed by a "struct page" which would lead to a huge slow-down if it
was used for high-frequency mapping operations. The API does not have any
effect on current setups where guest memory is backed by a "struct page".
Further patches are going to also introduce a pfn-cache which would
significantly improve the performance of the memremap case.

If a memory slot's size is not a multiple of 64 pages (256K), then
the KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG API is unusable: clearing the final 64 pages
either requires the requested page range to go beyond memslot->npages,
or requires log->num_pages to be unaligned, and kvm_clear_dirty_log_protect
requires log->num_pages to be both in range and aligned.
To allow this case, allow log->num_pages not to be a multiple of 64 if
it ends exactly on the last page of the slot.

KVM: s390: Features and fixes for 5.2
- VSIE crypto fixes
- new guest features for gen15
- disable halt polling for nested virtualization with overcommit
When a P9 sPAPR VM boots, the CAS negotiation process determines which
interrupt mode to use (XICS legacy or XIVE native) and invokes a
machine reset to activate the chosen mode.
To be able to switch from one interrupt mode to another, we introduce
the capability to release a KVM device without destroying the VM. The
KVM device interface is extended with a new 'release' method which is
called when the file descriptor of the device is closed.
Once 'release' is called, the 'destroy' method will not be called
anymore as the device is removed from the device list of the VM.

Some KVM devices will want to handle special mappings related to the
underlying HW. For instance, the XIVE interrupt controller of the
POWER9 processor has MMIO pages for thread interrupt management and
for interrupt source control that need to be exposed to the guest when
the OS has the required support.

We rely on the mmu_notifier call backs to handle the split/merge
of huge pages and thus we are guaranteed that, while creating a
block mapping, either the entire block is unmapped at stage2 or it
is missing permission.
However, we miss a case where the block mapping is split for dirty
logging case and then could later be made block mapping, if we cancel the
dirty logging. This not only creates inconsistent TLB entries for
the pages in the the block, but also leakes the table pages for
PMD level.
Handle this corner case for the huge mappings at stage2 by
unmapping the non-huge mapping for the block. This could potentially
release the upper level table. So we need to restart the table walk
once we unmap the range.

Also, the checks do not cover the PUD huge pages, that was
under review during the same period. This patch fixes both

debugfs can now report an error code if something went wrong instead of
just NULL. So if the return value is to be used as a "real" dentry, it
needs to be checked if it is an error before dereferencing it.
This is now happening because of ff9fb72bc0 ("debugfs: return error
values, not NULL"). syzbot has found a way to trigger multiple debugfs
files attempting to be created, which fails, and then the error code
gets passed to dentry_path_raw() which obviously does not like it.

grow_halt_poll_ns() have a strange behaviour in case
(vcpu->halt_poll_ns != 0) &&
(vcpu->halt_poll_ns < halt_poll_ns_grow_start).
In this case, vcpu->halt_poll_ns will be multiplied by grow factor
(halt_poll_ns_grow) which will require several grow iteration in order
to reach a value bigger than halt_poll_ns_grow_start.
This means that growing vcpu->halt_poll_ns from value of 0 is slower
than growing it from a positive value less than halt_poll_ns_grow_start.
Which is misleading and inaccurate.
Fix issue by changing grow_halt_poll_ns() to set vcpu->halt_poll_ns
to halt_poll_ns_grow_start in any case that

The hard-coded value 10000 in grow_halt_poll_ns() stands for the initial
start value when raising up vcpu->halt_poll_ns.
It actually sets the first timeout to the first polling session.
This value has significant effect on how tolerant we are to outliers.
On the standard case, higher value is better - we will spend more time
in the polling busyloop, handle events/interrupts faster and result
in better performance.
But on outliers it puts us in a busy loop that does nothing.
Even if the shrink factor is zero, we will still waste time on the first
iteration.
The optimal value changes between different workloads. It depends on
outliers rate and polling sessions length.
As this value has significant effect on the dynamic halt-polling
algorithm, it should be configurable and exposed.

...now that KVM won't explode by moving it out of bit 0. Using bit 63
eliminates the need to jump over bit 0, e.g. when calculating a new
memslots generation or when propagating the memslots generation to an
MMIO spte.

x86 captures a subset of the memslot generation (19 bits) in its MMIO
sptes so that it can expedite emulated MMIO handling by checking only
the releveant spte, i.e. doesn't need to do a full page fault walk.
Because the MMIO sptes capture only 19 bits (due to limited space in
the sptes), there is a non-zero probability that the MMIO generation
could wrap, e.g. after 500k memslot updates. Since normal usage is
extremely unlikely to result in 500k memslot updates, a hack was added
by commit 69c9ea93ea ("KVM: MMU: init kvm generation close to mmio
wrap-around value") to offset the MMIO generation in order to trigger
a wraparound, e.g. after 150 memslot updates.
When separate memslot generation sequences were assigned to each
address space, commit 00f034a12f ("KVM: do not bias the generation
number in kvm_current_mmio_generation") moved the offset logic into the
initialization of the memslot generation itself so that the per-address
space bit(s) were not dropped/corrupted by the MMIO shenanigans.
Remove the offset hack for three reasons:
- While it does exercise x86's kvm_mmu_invalidate_mmio_sptes(), simply
wrapping the generation doesn't actually test the interesting case
of having stale MMIO sptes with the new generation number, e.g. old
sptes with a generation number of 0.
- Triggering kvm_mmu_invalidate_mmio_sptes() prematurely makes its
performance rather important since the probability of invalidating
MMIO sptes jumps from "effectively never" to "fairly likely". This
limits what can be done in future patches, e.g. to simplify the
invalidation code, as doing so without proper caution could lead to
a noticeable performance regression.
- Forcing the memslots generation, which is a 64-bit number, to wrap
prevents KVM from assuming the memslots generation will never wrap.
This in turn prevents KVM from using an arbitrary bit for the
"update in-progress" flag, e.g. using bit 63 would immediately
collide with using a large value as the starting generation number.
The "update in-progress" flag is effectively forced into bit 0 so
that it's (subtly) taken into account when incrementing the
generation.

KVM uses bit 0 of the memslots generation as an "update in-progress"
flag, which is used by x86 to prevent caching MMIO access while the
memslots are changing. Although the intended behavior is flag-like,
e.g. MMIO sptes intentionally drop the in-progress bit so as to avoid
caching data from in-flux memslots, the implementation oftentimes treats
the bit as part of the generation number itself, e.g. incrementing the
generation increments twice, once to set the flag and once to clear it.
Prior to commit 4bd518f159 ("KVM: use separate generations for
each address space"), incorporating the "update in-progress" bit into
the generation number largely made sense, e.g. "real" generations are
even, "bogus" generations are odd, most code doesn't need to be aware of
the bit, etc...
Now that unique memslots generation numbers are assigned to each address
space, stealthing the in-progress status into the generation number
results in a wide variety of subtle code, e.g. kvm_create_vm() jumps
over bit 0 when initializing the memslots generation without any hint as
to why.
Explicitly define the flag and convert as much code as possible (which
isn't much) to actually treat it like a flag. This paves the way for
eventually using a different bit for "update in-progress" so that it can
be a flag in truth instead of a awkward extension to the generation
number.

kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is at this point in time an x86-specific
hook for handling MMIO generation wraparound. x86 stashes 19 bits of
the memslots generation number in its MMIO sptes in order to avoid
full page fault walks for repeat faults on emulated MMIO addresses.
Because only 19 bits are used, wrapping the MMIO generation number is
possible, if unlikely. kvm_arch_memslots_updated() alerts x86 that
the generation has changed so that it can invalidate all MMIO sptes in
case the effective MMIO generation has wrapped so as to avoid using a
stale spte, e.g. a (very) old spte that was created with generation==0.
Given that the purpose of kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is to prevent
consuming stale entries, it needs to be called before the new generation
is propagated to memslots. Invalidating the MMIO sptes after updating
memslots means that there is a window where a vCPU could dereference
the new memslots generation, e.g. 0, and incorrectly reuse an old MMIO
spte that was created with (pre-wrap) generation==0.

There are many KVM kernel memory allocations which are tied to the life of
the VM process and should be charged to the VM process's cgroup. If the
allocations aren't tied to the process, the OOM killer will not know
that killing the process will free the associated kernel memory.
Add __GFP_ACCOUNT flags to many of the allocations which are not yet being
charged to the VM process's cgroup.
Tested:
Ran all kvm-unit-tests on a 64 bit Haswell machine, the patch
introduced no new failures.
Ran a kernel memory accounting test which creates a VM to touch
memory and then checks that the kernel memory allocated for the
process is within certain bounds.
With this patch we account for much more of the vmalloc and slab memory
allocated for the VM.
There remain a few allocations which should be charged to the VM's
cgroup but are not. In they include:
vcpu->run
kvm->coalesced_mmio_ring
There allocations are unaccounted in this patch because they are mapped
to userspace, and accounting them to a cgroup causes problems. This
should be addressed in a future patch.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

When a guest gets scheduled, KVM performs a "load" operation,
which for the timer includes evaluating the virtual "active" state
of the interrupt, and replicating it on the physical side. This
ensures that the deactivation in the guest will also take place
in the physical GIC distributor.
If the interrupt is not yet active, we flag it as inactive on the
physical side. This means that on restoring the timer registers,
if the timer has expired, we'll immediately take an interrupt.
That's absolutely fine, as the interrupt will then be flagged as
active on the physical side. What this assumes though is that we'll
enter the guest right after having taken the interrupt, and that
the guest will quickly ACK the interrupt, making it active at on
the virtual side.
It turns out that quite often, this assumption doesn't really hold.
The guest may be preempted on the back on this interrupt, either
from kernel space or whilst running at EL1 when a host interrupt
fires. When this happens, we repeat the whole sequence on the
next load (interrupt marked as inactive, timer registers restored,
interrupt fires). And if it takes a really long time for a guest
to activate the interrupt (as it does with nested virt), we end-up
with many such events in quick succession, leading to the guest only
making very slow progress.
This can also be seen with the number of virtual timer interrupt on the
host being far greater than the same number in the guest.
An easy way to fix this is to evaluate the timer state when performing
the "load" operation, just like we do when the interrupt actually fires.
If the timer has a pending virtual interrupt at this stage, then we
can safely flag the physical interrupt as being active, which prevents
spurious exits.

We are currently emulating two timers in two different ways. When we
add support for nested virtualization in the future, we are going to be
emulating either two timers in two diffferent ways, or four timers in a
single way.
We need a unified data structure to keep track of how we map virtual
state to physical state and we need to cleanup some of the timer code to
operate more independently on a struct arch_timer_context instead of
trying to consider the global state of the VCPU and recomputing all
state.
