arm/arm64: KVM: Kill CONFIG_KVM_ARM_{VGIC,TIMER}

2015-03-12T14:15:27+00:00

We can definitely decide at run-time whether to use the GIC and timers or not, and the extra code and data structures that we allocate space for is really negligable with this config option, so I don't think it's worth the extra complexity of always having to define stub static inlines. The !CONFIG_KVM_ARM_VGIC/TIMER case is pretty much an untested code path anyway, so we're better off just getting rid of it. Signed-off-by: Christoffer Dall Acked-by: Marc Zyngier

arm/arm64: KVM: Clarify KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ABI

2014-12-13T13:15:26+00:00

It is not clear that this ioctl can be called multiple times for a given vcpu. Userspace already does this, so clarify the ABI. Also specify that userspace is expected to always make secondary and subsequent calls to the ioctl with the same parameters for the VCPU as the initial call (which userspace also already does). Add code to check that userspace doesn't violate that ABI in the future, and move the kvm_vcpu_set_target() function which is currently duplicated between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions in guest.c to a common static function in arm.c, shared between both architectures.

arm/arm64: KVM: Reset the HCR on each vcpu when resetting the vcpu

2014-12-13T13:15:26+00:00

When userspace resets the vcpu using KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, we should also reset the HCR, because we now modify the HCR dynamically to enable/disable trapping of guest accesses to the VM registers. This is crucial for reboot of VMs working since otherwise we will not be doing the necessary cache maintenance operations when faulting in pages with the guest MMU off.

KVM: ARM/arm64: return -EFAULT if copy_from_user fails in set_timer_reg

2014-08-27T20:49:45+00:00

We currently return the number of bytes not copied if set_timer_reg fails, which is almost certainly not what userspace would like. This patch returns -EFAULT instead. Cc: Christoffer Dall Cc: Marc Zyngier Signed-off-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: Christoffer Dall

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm

2014-08-07T18:35:30+00:00

Pull second round of KVM changes from Paolo Bonzini: "Here are the PPC and ARM changes for KVM, which I separated because they had small conflicts (respectively within KVM documentation, and with 3.16-rc changes). Since they were all within the subsystem, I took care of them. Stephen Rothwell reported some snags in PPC builds, but they are all fixed now; the latest linux-next report was clean. New features for ARM include: - KVM VGIC v2 emulation on GICv3 hardware - Big-Endian support for arm/arm64 (guest and host) - Debug Architecture support for arm64 (arm32 is on Christoffer's todo list) And for PPC: - Book3S: Good number of LE host fixes, enable HV on LE - Book3S HV: Add in-guest debug support This release drops support for KVM on the PPC440. As a result, the PPC merge removes more lines than it adds. :) I also included an x86 change, since Davidlohr tied it to an independent bug report and the reporter quickly provided a Tested-by; there was no reason to wait for -rc2" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (122 commits) KVM: Move more code under CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD KVM: nVMX: fix "acknowledge interrupt on exit" when APICv is in use KVM: nVMX: Fix nested vmexit ack intr before load vmcs01 KVM: PPC: Enable IRQFD support for the XICS interrupt controller KVM: Give IRQFD its own separate enabling Kconfig option KVM: Move irq notifier implementation into eventfd.c KVM: Move all accesses to kvm::irq_routing into irqchip.c KVM: irqchip: Provide and use accessors for irq routing table KVM: Don't keep reference to irq routing table in irqfd struct KVM: PPC: drop duplicate tracepoint arm64: KVM: fix 64bit CP15 VM access for 32bit guests KVM: arm64: GICv3: mandate page-aligned GICV region arm64: KVM: GICv3: move system register access to msr_s/mrs_s KVM: PPC: PR: Handle FSCR feature deselects KVM: PPC: HV: Remove generic instruction emulation KVM: PPC: BOOKEHV: rename e500hv_spr to bookehv_spr KVM: PPC: Remove DCR handling KVM: PPC: Expose helper functions for data/inst faults KVM: PPC: Separate loadstore emulation from priv emulation KVM: PPC: Handle magic page in kvmppc_ld/st ...

ARM: make it easier to check the CPU part number correctly

2014-07-18T11:29:02+00:00

Ensure that platform maintainers check the CPU part number in the right manner: the CPU part number is meaningless without also checking the CPU implement(e|o)r (choose your preferred spelling!) Provide an interface which returns both the implementer and part number together, and update the definitions to include the implementer. Mark the old function as being deprecated... indeed, using the old function with the definitions will now always evaluate as false, so people must update their un-merged code to the new function. While this could be avoided by adding new definitions, we'd also have to create new names for them which would be awkward. Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Russell King

arm64: KVM: allow export and import of generic timer regs

2014-07-11T11:46:55+00:00

For correct guest suspend/resume behaviour we need to ensure we include the generic timer registers for 64 bit guests. As CONFIG_KVM_ARM_TIMER is always set for arm64 we don't need to worry about null implementations. However I have re-jigged the kvm_arm_timer_set/get_reg declarations to be in the common include/kvm/arm_arch_timer.h headers.

ARM: KVM: introduce per-vcpu HYP Configuration Register

2014-03-03T01:15:23+00:00

So far, KVM/ARM used a fixed HCR configuration per guest, except for the VI/VF/VA bits to control the interrupt in absence of VGIC. With the upcoming need to dynamically reconfigure trapping, it becomes necessary to allow the HCR to be changed on a per-vcpu basis. The fix here is to mimic what KVM/arm64 already does: a per vcpu HCR field, initialized at setup time. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier Reviewed-by: Christoffer Dall Acked-by: Catalin Marinas

ARM/KVM: save and restore generic timer registers

2013-12-21T18:00:15+00:00

For migration to work we need to save (and later restore) the state of each core's virtual generic timer. Since this is per VCPU, we can use the [gs]et_one_reg ioctl and export the three needed registers (control, counter, compare value). Though they live in cp15 space, we don't use the existing list, since they need special accessor functions and the arch timer is optional.

KVM: ARM: Add support for Cortex-A7

2013-10-13T00:45:30+00:00

This patch adds support for running Cortex-A7 guests on Cortex-A7 hosts. As Cortex-A7 is architecturally compatible with A15, this patch is largely just generalising existing code. Areas where 'implementation defined' behaviour is identical for A7 and A15 is moved to allow it to be used by both cores. The check to ensure that coprocessor register tables are sorted correctly is also moved in to 'common' code to avoid each new cpu doing its own check (and possibly forgetting to do so!)
