HEAD
Guest-side KVM async #PF ABI cleanup for 6.9
Delete kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled to fix a goof in KVM's async #PF ABI where
the enabled field pushes the size of "struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data" from 64 to
68 bytes, i.e. beyond a single cache line.
The enabled field is purely a guest-side flag that Linux-as-a-guest uses to
track whether or not the guest has enabled async #PF support. The actual flag
that is passed to the host, i.e. to KVM proper, is a single bit in a synthetic
MSR, MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN, i.e. is in a location completely unrelated to the
shared kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data structure.
Simply drop the the field and use a dedicated guest-side per-CPU variable to
fix the ABI, as opposed to fixing the documentation to match reality. KVM has
never consumed kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, so the odds of the ABI change
breaking anything are extremely low.

Refer to commit fd10cde9294f ("KVM paravirt: Add async PF initialization
to PV guest") and commit 344d9588a9df ("KVM: Add PV MSR to enable
asynchronous page faults delivery"). It turns out that at the time when
asyncpf was introduced, the purpose was defining the shared PV data 'struct
kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' with the size of 64 bytes. However, it made a mistake
and defined the size to 68 bytes, which failed to make fit in a cache line
and made the code inconsistent with the documentation.
Below justification quoted from Sean[*]
KVM (the host side) has *never* read kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, and
the documentation clearly states that enabling is based solely on the
bit in the synthetic MSR.
So rather than update the documentation, fix the goof by removing the
enabled filed and use the separate percpu variable instread.
KVM-as-a-host obviously doesn't enforce anything or consume the size,
and changing the header will only affect guests that are rebuilt against
the new header, so there's no chance of ABI breakage between KVM and its
guests. The only possible breakage is if some other hypervisor is
emulating KVM's async #PF (LOL) and relies on the guest to set
kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled. But (a) I highly doubt such a hypervisor
exists, (b) that would arguably be a violation of KVM's "spec", and
(c) the worst case scenario is that the guest would simply lose async
#PF functionality.

Currently when kvm_update_cpuid_runtime() runs, it assumes that the
KVM_CPUID_FEATURES leaf is located at 0x40000001. This is not true,
however, if Hyper-V support is enabled. In this case the KVM leaves will
be offset.
This patch introdues as new 'kvm_cpuid_base' field into struct
kvm_vcpu_arch to track the location of the KVM leaves and function
kvm_update_kvm_cpuid_base() (called from kvm_set_cpuid()) to locate the
leaves using the 'KVMKVMKVM\0\0\0' signature (which is now given a
definition in kvm_para.h). Adjustment of KVM_CPUID_FEATURES will hence now
target the correct leaf.
NOTE: A new for_each_possible_hypervisor_cpuid_base() macro is intoduced
into processor.h to avoid having duplicate code for the iteration
over possible hypervisor base leaves.

This hypercall is used by the SEV guest to notify a change in the page
encryption status to the hypervisor. The hypercall should be invoked
only when the encryption attribute is changed from encrypted -> decrypted
and vice versa. By default all guest pages are considered encrypted.
The hypercall exits to userspace to manage the guest shared regions and
integrate with the userspace VMM's migration code.

No functional change; just reserve the feature bit for now so that VMMs
can start to implement it.
This will allow the host to indicate that MSI emulation supports 15-bit
destination IDs, allowing up to 32768 CPUs without interrupt remapping.

If two page ready notifications happen back to back the second one is not
delivered and the only mechanism we currently have is
kvm_check_async_pf_completion() check in vcpu_run() loop. The check will
only be performed with the next vmexit when it happens and in some cases
it may take a while. With interrupt based page ready notification delivery
the situation is even worse: unlike exceptions, interrupts are not handled
immediately so we must check if the slot is empty. This is slow and
unnecessary. Introduce dedicated MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK MSR to communicate
the fact that the slot is free and host should check its notification
queue. Mandate using it for interrupt based 'page ready' APF event
delivery.
As kvm_check_async_pf_completion() is going away from vcpu_run() we need
a way to communicate the fact that vcpu->async_pf.done queue has
transitioned from empty to non-empty state. Introduce
kvm_arch_async_page_present_queued() and KVM_REQ_APF_READY to do the job.

Concerns were expressed around APF delivery via synthetic #PF exception as
in some cases such delivery may collide with real page fault. For 'page
ready' notifications we can easily switch to using an interrupt instead.
Introduce new MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_INT mechanism and deprecate the legacy one.
One notable difference between the two mechanisms is that interrupt may not
get handled immediately so whenever we would like to deliver next event
(regardless of its type) we must be sure the guest had read and cleared
previous event in the slot.
While on it, get rid on 'type 1/type 2' names for APF events in the
documentation as they are causing confusion. Use 'page not present'
and 'page ready' everywhere instead.

Currently, APF mechanism relies on the #PF abuse where the token is being
passed through CR2. If we switch to using interrupts to deliver page-ready
notifications we need a different way to pass the data. Extent the existing
'struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' with token information for page-ready
notifications.
While on it, rename 'reason' to 'flags'. This doesn't change the semantics
as we only have reasons '1' and '2' and these can be treated as bit flags
but KVM_PV_REASON_PAGE_READY is going away with interrupt based delivery
making 'reason' name misleading.
The newly introduced apf_put_user_ready() temporary puts both flags and
token information, this will be changed to put token only when we switch
to interrupt based notifications.

KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED seems to be somewhat confusing:
Guest doesn't really care whether it's the only task running on a host
CPU as long as it's not preempted.
And there are more reasons for Guest to be preempted than host CPU
sharing, for example, with memory overcommit it can get preempted on a
memory access, post copy migration can cause preemption, etc.
Let's call it KVM_HINTS_REALTIME which seems to better
match what guests expect.
Also, the flag most be set on all vCPUs - current guests assume this.
Note so in the documentation.

hyperv.h is not part of uapi, there are no (known) users outside of kernel.
We are making changes to this file to match current Hyper-V Hypervisor
Top-Level Functional Specification (TLFS, see:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/reference/tlfs)
and we don't want to maintain backwards compatibility.
Move the file renaming to hyperv-tlfs.h to avoid confusing it with
mshyperv.h. In future, all definitions from TLFS should go to it and
all kernel objects should go to mshyperv.h or include/linux/hyperv.h.

This patch introduces kvm_para_has_hint() to query for hints about
the configuration of the guests. The first hint KVM_HINTS_DEDICATED,
is set if the guest has dedicated physical CPUs for each vCPU (i.e.
pinning and no over-commitment). This allows optimizing spinlocks
and tells the guest to avoid PV TLB flush.

Guests on new hypersiors might set KVM_ASYNC_PF_DELIVERY_AS_PF_VMEXIT
bit when enabling async_PF, but this bit is reserved on old hypervisors,
which results in a failure upon migration.
To avoid breaking different cases, we are checking for CPUID feature bit
before enabling the feature and nothing else.

Remote TLB flush does a busy wait which is fine in bare-metal
scenario. But with-in the guest, the vcpus might have been pre-empted or
blocked. In this scenario, the initator vcpu would end up busy-waiting
for a long amount of time; it also consumes CPU unnecessarily to wake
up the target of the shootdown.
This patch set adds support for KVM's new paravirtualized TLB flush;
remote TLB flush does not wait for vcpus that are sleeping, instead
KVM will flush the TLB as soon as the vCPU starts running again.
The improvement is clearly visible when the host is overcommitted; in this
case, the PV TLB flush (in addition to avoiding the wait on the main CPU)
prevents preempted vCPUs from stealing precious execution time from the
running ones.
Testing on a Xeon Gold 6142 2.6GHz 2 sockets, 32 cores, 64 threads,
so 64 pCPUs, and each VM is 64 vCPUs.

Early in the boot process, add checks to determine if the kernel is
running with Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) active.
Checking for SEV requires checking that the kernel is running under a
hypervisor (CPUID 0x00000001, bit 31), that the SEV feature is available
(CPUID 0x8000001f, bit 1) and then checking a non-interceptable SEV MSR
(0xc0010131, bit 0).
This check is required so that during early compressed kernel booting the
pagetables (both the boot pagetables and KASLR pagetables (if enabled) are
updated to include the encryption mask so that when the kernel is
decompressed into encrypted memory, it can boot properly.
After the kernel is decompressed and continues booting the same logic is
used to check if SEV is active and set a flag indicating so. This allows
to distinguish between SME and SEV, each of which have unique differences
in how certain things are handled: e.g. DMA (always bounce buffered with
SEV) or EFI tables (always access decrypted with SME).

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are 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. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Adds another flag bit (bit 2) to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN. If bit 2 is 1,
async page faults are delivered to L1 as #PF vmexits; if bit 2 is 0,
kvm_can_do_async_pf returns 0 if in guest mode.
This is similar to what svm.c wanted to do all along, but it is only
enabled for Linux as L1 hypervisor. Foreign hypervisors must never
receive async page faults as vmexits, because they'd probably be very
confused about that.
