This patch defines a new interface kvm_intr_is_single_vcpu(), which can returns whether the interrupt is for single-CPU or not. It is used by VT-d PI, since now we only support single-CPU interrupts, For lowest-priority interrupts, if user configures it via /proc/irq or uses irqbalance to make it single-CPU, we can use PI to deliver the interrupts to it.

2015-10-01virt: IRQ bypass managerAlex Williamson5-0/+357
When a physical I/O device is assigned to a virtual machine through facilities like VFIO and KVM, the interrupt for the device generally bounces through the host system before being injected into the VM. However, hardware technologies exist that often allow the host to be bypassed for some of these scenarios. Intel Posted Interrupts allow the specified physical edge interrupts to be directly injected into a guest when delivered to a physical processor while the vCPU is running. ARM IRQ Forwarding allows forwarded physical interrupts to be directly deactivated by the guest. The IRQ bypass manager here is meant to provide the shim to connect interrupt producers, generally the host physical device driver, with interrupt consumers, generally the hypervisor, in order to configure these bypass mechanism. To do this, we base the connection on a shared, opaque token. For KVM-VFIO this is expected to be an eventfd_ctx since this is the connection we already use to connect an eventfd to an irqfd on the in-kernel path. When a producer and consumer with matching tokens is found, callbacks via both registered participants allow the bypass facilities to be automatically enabled.

2015-10-01x86: kvmclock: abolish PVCLOCK_COUNTS_FROM_ZERORadim Krčmář1-11/+35
Newer KVM won't be exposing PVCLOCK_COUNTS_FROM_ZERO anymore. The purpose of that flags was to start counting system time from 0 when the KVM clock has been initialized. We can achieve the same by selecting one read as the initial point. A simple subtraction will work unless the KVM clock count overflows earlier (has smaller width) than scheduler's cycle count. We should be safe till x86_128. Because PVCLOCK_COUNTS_FROM_ZERO was enabled only on new hypervisors, setting sched clock as stable based on PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT might regress on older ones. I presume we don't need to change kvm_clock_read instead of introducing kvm_sched_clock_read. A problem could arise in case sched_clock is expected to return the same value as get_cycles, but we should have merged those clocks in that case.

2015-10-01KVM: x86: Add support for local interrupt requests from userspaceSteve Rutherford5-19/+78
In order to enable userspace PIC support, the userspace PIC needs to be able to inject local interrupts even when the APICs are in the kernel. KVM_INTERRUPT now supports sending local interrupts to an APIC when APICs are in the kernel. The ready_for_interrupt_request flag is now only set when the CPU/APIC will immediately accept and inject an interrupt (i.e. APIC has not masked the PIC). When the PIC wishes to initiate an INTA cycle with, say, CPU0, it kicks CPU0 out of the guest, and renedezvous with CPU0 once it arrives in userspace. When the CPU/APIC unmasks the PIC, a KVM_EXIT_IRQ_WINDOW_OPEN is triggered, so that userspace has a chance to inject a PIC interrupt if it had been pending. Overall, this design can lead to a small number of spurious userspace renedezvous. In particular, whenever the PIC transistions from low to high while it is masked and whenever the PIC becomes unmasked while it is low. Note: this does not buffer more than one local interrupt in the kernel, so the VMM needs to enter the guest in order to complete interrupt injection before injecting an additional interrupt. Compiles for x86. Can pass the KVM Unit Tests. Signed-off-by: Steve Rutherford <srutherford@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2015-10-01KVM: x86: Add EOI exit bitmap inferenceSteve Rutherford8-16/+78
In order to support a userspace IOAPIC interacting with an in kernel APIC, the EOI exit bitmaps need to be configurable. If the IOAPIC is in userspace (i.e. the irqchip has been split), the EOI exit bitmaps will be set whenever the GSI Routes are configured. In particular, for the low MSI routes are reservable for userspace IOAPICs. For these MSI routes, the EOI Exit bit corresponding to the destination vector of the route will be set for the destination VCPU. The intention is for the userspace IOAPICs to use the reservable MSI routes to inject interrupts into the guest. This is a slight abuse of the notion of an MSI Route, given that MSIs classically bypass the IOAPIC. It might be worthwhile to add an additional route type to improve clarity.

2015-10-01KVM: x86: Add KVM exit for IOAPIC EOIsSteve Rutherford6-8/+48
Adds KVM_EXIT_IOAPIC_EOI which allows the kernel to EOI level-triggered IOAPIC interrupts. Uses a per VCPU exit bitmap to decide whether or not the IOAPIC needs to be informed (which is identical to the EOI_EXIT_BITMAP field used by modern x86 processors, but can also be used to elide kvm IOAPIC EOI exits on older processors). [Note: A prototype using ResampleFDs found that decoupling the EOI from the VCPU's thread made it possible for the VCPU to not see a recent EOI after reentering the guest. This does not match real hardware.] Compile tested for Intel x86. Signed-off-by: Steve Rutherford <srutherford@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2015-10-01KVM: x86: unify handling of interrupt windowPaolo Bonzini3-26/+2
The interrupt window is currently checked twice, once in vmx.c/svm.c and once in dm_request_for_irq_injection. The only difference is the extra check for kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed in dm_request_for_irq_injection, and the different return value (EINTR/KVM_EXIT_INTR for vmx.c/svm.c vs. 0/KVM_EXIT_IRQ_WINDOW_OPEN for dm_request_for_irq_injection). However, dm_request_for_irq_injection is basically dead code!

2015-10-01KVM: x86: store IOAPIC-handled vectors in each VCPUPaolo Bonzini7-34/+18
We can reuse the algorithm that computes the EOI exit bitmap to figure out which vectors are handled by the IOAPIC. The only difference between the two is for edge-triggered interrupts other than IRQ8 that have no notifiers active; however, the IOAPIC does not have to do anything special for these interrupts anyway. This again limits the interactions between the IOAPIC and the LAPIC, making it easier to move the former to userspace. Inspired by a patch from Steve Rutherford.
