From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
Changed in v4:
- The offset into the cache returned from get_vcpu_info_cache() was not
being factored into kvm_gpc_check() or kvm_gpc_refresh() calls. Fix
this.
- When transitioning from a default vcpu_info to an explicit one, copy
the content across. This was previously the responsibility of the
VMM.
Changed in v3:
- Patch added to make sure Xen vcpu_id is immutable once shared_info is
set.
- Adjust the xen_shinfo_test selftest accordingly.
- Also have the selftest use both mechanisms to set shared_info.
- Add text to API documentation discussing copying of vcpu_info. This
has been removed in v4.
- Adjust the selftest to switch from default to explicit vcpu_info
part way through.
Changed in v2:
- Defer advertizement of KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA to a patch
at the end of the series.
- Remove the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_DEFAULT_VCPU_INFO capability.
- Add selftests and API documentation.
Original text:
Currently we treat the shared_info page as guest memory and the VMM informs
KVM of its location using a GFN. However it is not guest memory as such;
it's an overlay page. So we pointlessly invalidate and re-cache a mapping
to the *same page* of memory every time the guest requests that shared_info
be mapped into its address space. Let's avoid doing that by modifying the
pfncache code to allow activation using a fixed userspace HVA as well as
a GPA.
Also, if the guest does not hypercall to explicitly set a pointer to a
vcpu_info in its own memory, the default vcpu_info embedded in the
shared_info page should be used. At the moment the VMM has to set up a
pointer to the structure explicitly (again treating it like it's in
guest memory, despite being in an overlay page). Let's also avoid the
need for that. We already have a cached mapping for the shared_info
page so just use that directly by default.
Paul Durrant (13):

We have an unmap helper but mapping is open-coded. Arguably this is fine
because mapping is done in only one place, hva_to_pfn_retry(), but adding
the helper does make that function more readable.
No functional change intended.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
At the moment pages are marked dirty by open-coded calls to
mark_page_dirty_in_slot(), directly deferefencing the gpa and memslot
from the cache. After a subsequent patch these may not always be set
so add a helper now so that caller will protected from the need to know
about this detail.
NOTE: Pages are now marked dirty while the cache lock is held. This is
to ensure that gpa and memslot are mutually consistent.

A subsequent patch will rename this field since it will become overloaded.
To avoid churn in places that currently retrieve the gpa, add a helper for
that purpose now.
No functional change intended.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
Some cached pages may actually be overlays on guest memory that have a
fixed HVA within the VMM. It's pointless to invalidate such cached
mappings if the overlay is moved so allow a cache to be activated directly
with the HVA to cater for such cases. A subsequent patch will make use
of this facility.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
The shared_info page is not guest memory as such. It is a dedicated page
allocated by the VMM and overlaid onto guest memory in a GFN chosen by the
guest. The guest may even request that shared_info be moved from one GFN
to another, but the HVA is never going to change. Thus it makes much more
sense to map the shared_info page in kernel once using this fixed HVA.
Hence add a new KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_SHARED_INFO_HVA attribute type for this
purpose and a KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA flag to advertize its
availability. Don't actually advertize it yet though. That will be done in
a subsequent patch, which will also add tests for the new attribute type.
Also update the KVM API documentation with the new attribute and also fix
it up to consistently refer to 'shared_info' (with the underscore).
NOTE: The change of the kvm_xen_hvm_attr shared_info from struct to union
is technically an ABI change but it's entirely compatible with
existing users.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
The shared_info page contains an array of 32 vcpu_info structures
which may be used by guests (with fewer than 32 vCPUs) if they don't
explicitly register vcpu_info structures in their own memory, using
a VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info hypercall.
Currently we rely on the VMM always registering vcpu_info structures,
even if the guest doesn't make that hypercall, which is somewhat
bogus as (as has been stated in the comment of a previous commit)
the shared_info page is not guest memory.
Prepare to automatically use the vcpu_info info embedded in shared_info
by default, by adding a get_vcpu_info_cache() helper function. This
function also passes back an offset to be added to the cached khva.
This is currently always zero since we're still relying on the
current VMM behaviour. A subsequent patch will make proper use of
it.
No functional change intended.
NOTE: To avoid leaking detail of the vcpu_info duality into the main
x86 code, a kvm_xen_guest_time_update() has also been added
and use of this requires that kvm_setup_guest_pvclock() ceases
to be a static function.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
To further prepare for automatically using the vcpu_info structures
embedded in the shared_info page, we need to ensure that the Xen vcpu_id
cannot change under our feet. We can do this by simply returning -EBUSY
to any attempt to modify the attribute while the shinfo_cache is active.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
The VMM should only need to set the KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_VCPU_INFO
attribute in response to a VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info hypercall. We can
handle the default case internally since we already know where the
shared_info page is. Modify get_vcpu_info_cache() to pass back a pointer
to the shared info pfn cache (and appropriate offset) for any of the
first 32 vCPUs if the attribute has not been set.
A VMM will be able to determine whether it needs to set up default
vcpu_info using the previously defined KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA
Xen capability flag, which will be advertized in a subsequent patch.
If the VMM subsequently sets a vcpu_info in response to the aforementioned
hypercall then the content of the default vcpu_info will be copied to the
new location.
Also update the KVM API documentation to describe the new behaviour.

If the capability (KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_EVTCHN_SEND) is present then set
the guest's vCPU id to match the chosen vcpu_info offset.
Also make some cosmetic fixes to the code for clarity.

Using the HVA of the shared_info page is more efficient, so if the
capability (KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA) is present use that method
to do the mapping.
NOTE: Have the juggle_shinfo_state() thread map and unmap using both
GFN and HVA, to make sure the older mechanism is not broken.

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>
If the vCPU id is set and the shared_info is mapped using HVA then we can
infer that KVM has the ability to use a default vcpu_info mapping. Hence
we can stop setting the address of the vcpu_info structure.
NOTE: We still explicitly set vcpu_info half way through testing (to point
at exactly the place it already is) to make sure that setting the
attribute does not fail.

From this moment, can't interrupts be delivered to the new vcpu_info,
even though the memcpy hasn't happened yet?
I think we need to ensure that any kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() which
happens at this point cannot proceed, and falls back to the slow path.
Can we set a flag before we activate the vcpu_info and clear it after
the memcpy is done, then make kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() return
EWOULDBLOCK whenever that flag is set?
The slow path in kvm_xen_set_evtchn() takes kvm->arch.xen.xen_lock and
I think kvm_xen_vcpu_set_attr() has taken that same lock before you get
to this code, so it works out nicely?

This adds a new lock ordering rule of the vcpu_info lock(s) before the
shared_info lock. I don't know that it's *wrong* but it seems weird to
me; I expected the shared_info to come first?
I avoided taking both at once in kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast(), although
maybe if we are going to have a rule that allows both, we could revisit
that. Suspect it isn't needed.
Either way it is worth a clear comment somewhere to document the lock
ordering, and I'd also like to know this has been tested with lockdep,
which is often cleverer than me.

Yes, I think that is safe... but if we didn't have the window between

Ok. I agree that shared_info before vcpu_info does seem more intuitive
and maybe it would be better given the code in
kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast(). I'll seem how messy it gets in re-ordering
and add a comment as you suggest.

I suppose so from the caller's point of view in this case, but I'm
somewhat disinclined to add that complexity to the pfncache code.
We take the refresh_lock *mutex* in __kvm_gpc_refresh() so it's not as
simple as declaring that said function is called with the gpc rwlock
already held.
We also do the final gpc_unmap_khva() of the old mapping after dropping
the lock; *could* we call that with a write lock held? A write lock
which is going to be taken the MM notifier callbacks? Well, maybe not
in the case of the first *activate* which isn't really a 'refresh' per
se but the whole thing is making my skin itch. I don't like it.

I suppose you could just write the evtchn_pending_sel word in the new
vcpu_info GPA to zero before setting up the pfncache for it.
When when you do the memcpy, you don't *just* memcpy the
evtchn_pending_sel word; you use the bitwise OR of the old and new, so
you catch any bits which got set in the new word in the interim?
But then again, who moves the vcpu_info while there are actually
interrupts in-flight to the vCPU in question? Maybe we just declare
that we don't care, and that interrupts may be lost in that case? Even
if *Xen* wouldn't have lost them (and I don't even know that part is
true).

I think they look interchangeable in this case. If we *do* take them
both in kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() then maybe we can simplify the slow
path where it set the bits in shared_info but then the vcpu_info gpc
was invalid. That currently uses a kvm->arch.xen.evtchn_pending_sel
shadow of the bits, and just kicks the vCPU to deliver them for
itself... but maybe that whole thing could be dropped, and
kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() can just return EWOULDBLOCK if it fails to
lock *both* shared_info and vcpu_info at the same time?
I didn't do that before, because I didn't want to introduce lock
ordering rules. But I'm happier to do so now. And I think we can ditch
a lot of hairy asm in kvm_xen_inject_pending_events() ?

Messing with the asm sounds like something for a follow-up though.
