2025-11-05KVM: Make support for kvm_arch_vcpu_async_ioctl() mandatorySean Christopherson
Implement kvm_arch_vcpu_async_ioctl() "natively" in x86 and arm64 instead of relying on an #ifdef'd stub, and drop HAVE_KVM_VCPU_ASYNC_IOCTL in anticipation of using the API on x86. Once x86 uses the API, providing a stub for one architecture and having all other architectures opt-in requires more code than simply implementing the API in the lone holdout. Eliminating the Kconfig will also reduce churn if the API is renamed in the future (spoiler alert). No functional change intended.

KVM x86 fixes for 6.18: - Expand the KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY selftest to add a regression test for the bug fixed by commit 3ccbf6f47098 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Return -EAGAIN if userspace deletes/moves memslot during prefault") - Don't try to get PMU capabbilities from perf when running a CPU with hybrid CPUs/PMUs, as perf will rightly WARN. - Rework KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP (newly introduced in 6.18) into a more generic KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS - Add a guest_memfd INIT_SHARED flag and require userspace to explicitly set said flag to initialize memory as SHARED, irrespective of MMAP. The behavior merged in 6.18 is that enabling mmap() implicitly initializes memory as SHARED, which would result in an ABI collision for x86 CoCo VMs as their memory is currently always initialized PRIVATE. - Allow mmap() on guest_memfd for x86 CoCo VMs, i.e. on VMs with private memory, to enable testing such setups, i.e. to hopefully flush out any other lurking ABI issues before 6.18 is officially released. - Add testcases to the guest_memfd selftest to cover guest_memfd without MMAP, and host userspace accesses to mmap()'d private memory.
2025-10-10KVM: Explicitly mark KVM_GUEST_MEMFD as depending on KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIERSean Christopherson
Add KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER as a dependency for selecting KVM_GUEST_MEMFD, as guest_memfd relies on kvm_mmu_invalidate_{begin,end}(), which are defined if and only if the generic mmu_notifier implementation is enabled. The missing dependency is currently benign as s390 is the only KVM arch that doesn't utilize the generic mmu_notifier infrastructure, and s390 doesn't currently support guest_memfd.

2025-08-27KVM: Rename CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATEFuad Tabba
The original name was vague regarding its functionality. This Kconfig option specifically enables and gates the kvm_gmem_populate() function, which is responsible for populating a GPA range with guest data. The new name, HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE, describes the purpose of the option: to enable arch-specific guest_memfd population mechanisms. It also follows the same pattern as the other HAVE_KVM_ARCH_* configuration options. This improves clarity for developers and ensures the name accurately reflects the functionality it controls, especially as guest_memfd support expands beyond purely "private" memory scenarios. Temporarily keep KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM as an x86-only config so as to minimize churn, and to hopefully make it easier to see what features require HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE. On that note, omit GMEM_POPULATE for KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, as regular ol' memset() suffices for software-protected VMs. As for KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM, a future change will select KVM_GUEST_MEMFD for all 64-bit KVM builds, at which point the intermediate config will become obsolete and can/will be dropped.

2025-08-27KVM: Rename CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFDFuad Tabba
Rename the Kconfig option CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD. The original name implied that the feature only supported "private" memory. However, CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM enables guest_memfd in general, which is not exclusively for private memory. Subsequent patches in this series will add guest_memfd support for non-CoCo VMs, whose memory is not private. Renaming the Kconfig option to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD more accurately reflects its broader scope as the main Kconfig option for all guest_memfd-backed memory.

2024-10-30KVM: Allow arch code to elide TLB flushes when aging a young pageSean Christopherson
Add a Kconfig to allow architectures to opt-out of a TLB flush when a young page is aged, as invalidating TLB entries is not functionally required on most KVM-supported architectures. Stale TLB entries can result in false negatives and theoretically lead to suboptimal reclaim, but in practice all observations have been that the performance gained by skipping TLB flushes outweighs any performance lost by reclaiming hot pages. E.g. the primary MMUs for x86 RISC-V, s390, and PPC Book3S elide the TLB flush for ptep_clear_flush_young(), and arm64's MMU skips the trailing DSB that's required for ordering (presumably because there are optimizations related to eliding other TLB flushes when doing make-before-break).

Wire up arch-defined hooks to the .free_folio kvm_gmem_aops callback to allow for special handling of this sort when freeing memory in response to FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE operations and when releasing the inode, and go ahead and define an arch-specific hook for x86 since it will be needed for handling memory used for SEV-SNP guests.

2024-05-10KVM: guest_memfd: Add hook for initializing memoryPaolo Bonzini
guest_memfd pages are generally expected to be in some arch-defined initial state prior to using them for guest memory. For SEV-SNP this initial state is 'private', or 'guest-owned', and requires additional operations to move these pages into a 'private' state by updating the corresponding entries the RMP table. Allow for an arch-defined hook to handle updates of this sort, and go ahead and implement one for x86 so KVM implementations like AMD SVM can register a kvm_x86_ops callback to handle these updates for SEV-SNP guests. The preparation callback is always called when allocating/grabbing folios via gmem, and it is up to the architecture to keep track of whether or not the pages are already in the expected state (e.g. the RMP table in the case of SEV-SNP). In some cases, it is necessary to defer the preparation of the pages to handle things like in-place encryption of initial guest memory payloads before marking these pages as 'private'/'guest-owned'. Add an argument (always true for now) to kvm_gmem_get_folio() that allows for the preparation callback to be bypassed. To detect possible issues in the way userspace initializes memory, it is only possible to add an unprepared page if it is not already included in the filemap.

2024-02-08kvm: replace __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM with Kconfig symbolPaolo Bonzini
KVM uses __KVM_HAVE_* symbols in the architecture-dependent uapi/asm/kvm.h to mask unused definitions in include/uapi/linux/kvm.h. __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM however was nothing but a misguided attempt to define KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM only on architectures where KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION(KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM) could possibly return nonzero. This however does not make sense, and it prevented userspace from supporting this architecture-independent feature without recompilation. Therefore, these days __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM does not mask anything and is only used in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c. Userspace does not need to test it and there should be no need for it to exist.

2024-01-08KVM: fix direction of dependency on MMU notifiersPaolo Bonzini
KVM_GENERIC_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES requires the generic MMU notifier code, because it uses kvm_mmu_invalidate_begin/end. However, it would not work with a bespoke implementation of MMU notifiers that does not use KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER, because most likely it would not synchronize correctly on invalidation. So the right thing to do is to note the problematic configuration if the architecture does not select itself KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER; not to enable it blindly.

2024-01-08KVM: introduce CONFIG_KVM_COMMONPaolo Bonzini
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM is currently used by some architectures to either enabled the KVM config proper, or to enable host-side code that is not part of the KVM module. However, CONFIG_KVM's "select" statement in virt/kvm/Kconfig corresponds to a third meaning, namely to enable common Kconfigs required by all architectures that support KVM. These three meanings can be replaced respectively by an architecture-specific Kconfig, by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM), or by a new Kconfig symbol that is in turn selected by the architecture-specific "config KVM". Start by introducing such a new Kconfig symbol, CONFIG_KVM_COMMON. Unlike CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, it is selected by CONFIG_KVM, not by architecture code, and it brings in all dependencies of common KVM code. In particular, INTERVAL_TREE was missing in loongarch and riscv, so that is another thing that is fixed.

Add a new x86 VM type, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, to serve as a development and testing vehicle for Confidential (CoCo) VMs, and potentially to even become a "real" product in the distant future, e.g. a la pKVM. The private memory support in KVM x86 is aimed at AMD's SEV-SNP and Intel's TDX, but those technologies are extremely complex (understatement), difficult to debug, don't support running as nested guests, and require hardware that's isn't universally accessible. I.e. relying SEV-SNP or TDX for maintaining guest private memory isn't a realistic option. At the very least, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM will enable a variety of selftests for guest_memfd and private memory support without requiring unique hardware.

2023-11-14KVM: Add KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD ioctl() for guest-specific backing memorySean Christopherson
Introduce an ioctl(), KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, to allow creating file-based memory that is tied to a specific KVM virtual machine and whose primary purpose is to serve guest memory. A guest-first memory subsystem allows for optimizations and enhancements that are kludgy or outright infeasible to implement/support in a generic memory subsystem. With guest_memfd, guest protections and mapping sizes are fully decoupled from host userspace mappings. E.g. KVM currently doesn't support mapping memory as writable in the guest without it also being writable in host userspace, as KVM's ABI uses VMA protections to define the allow guest protection. Userspace can fudge this by establishing two mappings, a writable mapping for the guest and readable one for itself, but that’s suboptimal on multiple fronts. Similarly, KVM currently requires the guest mapping size to be a strict subset of the host userspace mapping size, e.g. KVM doesn’t support creating a 1GiB guest mapping unless userspace also has a 1GiB guest mapping. Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely map only what is needed without impacting guest performance, e.g. to harden against unintentional accesses to guest memory. Decoupling guest and userspace mappings may also allow for a cleaner alternative to high-granularity mappings for HugeTLB, which has reached a bit of an impasse and is unlikely to ever be merged. A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_ needs to mmap() guest memory). More immediately, being able to map memory into KVM guests without mapping said memory into the host is critical for Confidential VMs (CoCo VMs), the initial use case for guest_memfd. While AMD's SEV and Intel's TDX prevent untrusted software from reading guest private data by encrypting guest memory with a key that isn't usable by the untrusted host, projects such as Protected KVM (pKVM) provide confidentiality and integrity *without* relying on memory encryption. And with SEV-SNP and TDX, accessing guest private memory can be fatal to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host userspace from accessing guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior. Attempt #1 to support CoCo VMs was to add a VMA flag to mark memory as being mappable only by KVM (or a similarly enlightened kernel subsystem). That approach was abandoned largely due to it needing to play games with PROT_NONE to prevent userspace from accessing guest memory. Attempt #2 to was to usurp PG_hwpoison to prevent the host from mapping guest private memory into userspace, but that approach failed to meet several requirements for software-based CoCo VMs, e.g. pKVM, as the kernel wouldn't easily be able to enforce a 1:1 page:guest association, let alone a 1:1 pfn:gfn mapping. And using PG_hwpoison does not work for memory that isn't backed by 'struct page', e.g. if devices gain support for exposing encrypted memory regions to guests. Attempt #3 was to extend the memfd() syscall and wrap shmem to provide dedicated file-based guest memory. That approach made it as far as v10 before feedback from Hugh Dickins and Christian Brauner (and others) led to it demise. Hugh's objection was that piggybacking shmem made no sense for KVM's use case as KVM didn't actually *want* the features provided by shmem. I.e. KVM was using memfd() and shmem to avoid having to manage memory directly, not because memfd() and shmem were the optimal solution, e.g. things like read/write/mmap in shmem were dead weight. Christian pointed out flaws with implementing a partial overlay (wrapping only _some_ of shmem), e.g. poking at inode_operations or super_operations would show shmem stuff, but address_space_operations and file_operations would show KVM's overlay. Paraphrashing heavily, Christian suggested KVM stop being lazy and create a proper API.

Introduce the KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES ioctl, advertised by KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, to allow userspace to set the per-page memory attributes to a guest memory range. Use an xarray to store the per-page attributes internally, with a naive, not fully optimized implementation, i.e. prioritize correctness over performance for the initial implementation. Use bit 3 for the PRIVATE attribute so that KVM can use bits 0-2 for RWX attributes/protections in the future, e.g. to give userspace fine-grained control over read, write, and execute protections for guest memory. Provide arch hooks for handling attribute changes before and after common code sets the new attributes, e.g. x86 will use the "pre" hook to zap all relevant mappings, and the "post" hook to track whether or not hugepages can be used to map the range. To simplify the implementation wrap the entire sequence with kvm_mmu_invalidate_{begin,end}() even though the operation isn't strictly guaranteed to be an invalidation. For the initial use case, x86 *will* always invalidate memory, and preventing arch code from creating new mappings while the attributes are in flux makes it much easier to reason about the correctness of consuming attributes. It's possible that future usages may not require an invalidation, e.g. if KVM ends up supporting RWX protections and userspace grants _more_ protections, but again opt for simplicity and punt optimizations to if/when they are needed.

2023-11-13KVM: Convert KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER to CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIERSean Christopherson
Convert KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER into a Kconfig and select it where appropriate to effectively maintain existing behavior. Using a proper Kconfig will simplify building more functionality on top of KVM's mmu_notifier infrastructure. Add a forward declaration of kvm_gfn_range to kvm_types.h so that including arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_ppc.h's with CONFIG_KVM=n doesn't generate warnings due to kvm_gfn_range being undeclared. PPC defines hooks for PR vs. HV without guarding them via #ifdeffery, e.g. bool (*unmap_gfn_range)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range); bool (*age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range); bool (*test_age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range); bool (*set_spte_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range); Alternatively, PPC could forward declare kvm_gfn_range, but there's no good reason not to define it in common KVM.

In addition to letting s390 and PPC drop a bit of dead code, this will hopefully also allow ARM to clean up its related code, e.g. ARM has its own per-CPU flag to track which CPUs have enable hardware due to the need to keep hardware enabled indefinitely when pKVM is enabled.

2022-11-10KVM: Support dirty ring in conjunction with bitmapGavin Shan
ARM64 needs to dirty memory outside of a VCPU context when VGIC/ITS is enabled. It's conflicting with that ring-based dirty page tracking always requires a running VCPU context. Introduce a new flavor of dirty ring that requires the use of both VCPU dirty rings and a dirty bitmap. The expectation is that for non-VCPU sources of dirty memory (such as the VGIC/ITS on arm64), KVM writes to the dirty bitmap. Userspace should scan the dirty bitmap before migrating the VM to the target. Use an additional capability to advertise this behavior. The newly added capability (KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_WITH_BITMAP) can't be enabled before KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL on ARM64. In this way, the newly added capability is treated as an extension of KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_ACQ_REL.

2022-01-07KVM: Reinstate gfn_to_pfn_cache with invalidation supportDavid Woodhouse
This can be used in two modes. There is an atomic mode where the cached mapping is accessed while holding the rwlock, and a mode where the physical address is used by a vCPU in guest mode. For the latter case, an invalidation will wake the vCPU with the new KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE, and the architecture will need to refresh any caches it still needs to access before entering guest mode again. Only one vCPU can be targeted by the wake requests; it's simple enough to make it wake all vCPUs or even a mask but I don't see a use case for that additional complexity right now. Invalidation happens from the invalidate_range_start MMU notifier, which needs to be able to sleep in order to wake the vCPU and wait for it. This means that revalidation potentially needs to "wait" for the MMU operation to complete and the invalidate_range_end notifier to be invoked. Like the vCPU when it takes a page fault in that period, we just spin — fixing that in a future patch by implementing an actual *wait* may be another part of shaving this particularly hirsute yak. As noted in the comments in the function itself, the only case where the invalidate_range_start notifier is expected to be called *without* being able to sleep is when the OOM reaper is killing the process. In that case, we expect the vCPU threads already to have exited, and thus there will be nothing to wake, and no reason to wait. So we clear the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT bit and send the request anyway, then complain loudly if there actually *was* anything to wake up.

2020-07-24entry: Provide infrastructure for work before transitioning to guest modeThomas Gleixner
Entering a guest is similar to exiting to user space. Pending work like handling signals, rescheduling, task work etc. needs to be handled before that. Provide generic infrastructure to avoid duplication of the same handling code all over the place. The transfer to guest mode handling is different from the exit to usermode handling, e.g. vs. rseq and live patching, so a separate function is used. The initial list of work items handled is: TIF_SIGPENDING, TIF_NEED_RESCHED, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME Architecture specific TIF flags can be added via defines in the architecture specific include files. The calling convention is also different from the syscall/interrupt entry functions as KVM invokes this from the outer vcpu_run() loop with interrupts and preemption enabled. To prevent missing a pending work item it invokes a check for pending TIF work from interrupt disabled code right before transitioning to guest mode. The lockdep, RCU and tracing state handling is also done directly around the switch to and from guest mode.

2018-05-25KVM: arm/arm64: Introduce kvm_arch_vcpu_run_pid_changeChristoffer Dall
KVM/ARM differs from other architectures in having to maintain an additional virtual address space from that of the host and the guest, because we split the execution of KVM across both EL1 and EL2. This results in a need to explicitly map data structures into EL2 (hyp) which are accessed from the hyp code. As we are about to be more clever with our FPSIMD handling on arm64, which stores data in the task struct and uses thread_info flags, we will have to map parts of the currently executing task struct into the EL2 virtual address space. However, we don't want to do this on every KVM_RUN, because it is a fairly expensive operation to walk the page tables, and the common execution mode is to map a single thread to a VCPU. By introducing a hook that architectures can select with HAVE_KVM_VCPU_RUN_PID_CHANGE, we do not introduce overhead for other architectures, but have a simple way to only map the data we need when required for arm64. This patch introduces the framework only, and wires it up in the arm/arm64 KVM common code. No functional change.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
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.

2016-05-13KVM: halt_polling: provide a way to qualify wakeups during pollChristian Borntraeger
Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough. This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests. This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls. For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll. This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor, we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though. This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP while still providing a proper speedup. This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks wakeups that are considered not good for polling.
