Since the commit "8003c9ae204e: add APIC Timer periodic/oneshot mode VMX
preemption timer support", a Windows 10 guest has some erratic timer
spikes.
Here the results on a 150000 times 1ms timer without any load:
Before 8003c9ae20 | After 8003c9ae20
Max 1834us | 86000us
Mean 1100us | 1021us
Deviation 59us | 149us
Here the results on a 150000 times 1ms timer with a cpu-z stress test:

Max 32000us | 140000us
Mean 1006us | 1997us
Deviation 140us | 11095us
The root cause of the problem is starting hrtimer with an expiry time
already in the past can take more than 20 milliseconds to trigger the
timer function. It can be solved by forward such past timers
immediately, rather than submitting them to hrtimer_start().
In case the timer is periodic, update the target expiration and call
hrtimer_start with it.
v2: Check if the tsc deadline is already expired. Thank you Mika.
v3: Execute the past timers immediately rather than submitting them to
hrtimer_start().
v4: Rearm the periodic timer with advance_periodic_target_expiration() a
simpler version of set_target_expiration(). Thank you Paolo.

Devices which use level-triggered interrupts under Windows 2016 with
Hyper-V role enabled don't work: Windows disables EOI broadcast in SPIV
unconditionally. Our in-kernel IOAPIC implementation emulates an old IOAPIC
version which has no EOI register so EOI never happens.
The issue was discovered and discussed a while ago:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg148098.html
While this is a guest OS bug (it should check that IOAPIC has the required
capabilities before disabling EOI broadcast) we can workaround it in KVM:
advertising DIRECTED_EOI with in-kernel IOAPIC makes little sense anyway.

In x2apic mode the LDR is fixed based on the ID rather
than separately loadable like it was before x2.
When kvm_apic_set_state is called, the base is set, and if
it has the X2APIC_ENABLE flag set then the LDR is calculated;
however that value gets overwritten by the memcpy a few lines
below overwriting it with the value that came from userland.
The symptom is a lack of EOI after loading the state
(e.g. after a QEMU migration) and is due to the EOI bitmap
being wrong due to the incorrect LDR. This was seen with
a Win2016 guest under Qemu with irqchip=split whose USB mouse
didn't work after a VM migration.

Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com>
If we take TSC-deadline mode timer out of the picture, the Intel SDM
does not say that the timer is disable when the timer mode is change,
either from one-shot to periodic or vice versa.
After this patch, the timer is no longer disarmed on change of mode, so
the counter (TMCCT) keeps counting down.
So what does a write to LVTT changes ? On baremetal, the change of mode
is probably taken into account only when the counter reach 0. When this
happen, LVTT is use to figure out if the counter should restard counting
down from TMICT (so periodic mode) or stop counting (if one-shot mode).
This patch is based on observation of the behavior of the APIC timer on
baremetal as well as check that they does not go against the description
written in the Intel SDM.

The newly supported MSRs are advertised with the AccessFrequencyRegs

If the TSC deadline timer is programmed really close to the deadline or

then plays a vmentry and an upcoming vmx preemption timer fire vmexit
dance, the lapic timer injection is delayed due to this duration. Actually
the lapic timer which is emulated by hrtimer can handle this correctly.
This patch fixes it by firing the lapic timer and injecting a timer interrupt
immediately during the next vmentry if the TSC deadline timer is programmed
really close to the deadline or even in the past. This saves ~300 cycles on
the tsc_deadline_timer test of apic.flat.

Intel SDM says, that at most one LAPIC should be configured with ExtINT
delivery. KVM configures all LAPICs this way. This causes pic_unlock()
to kick the first available vCPU from the internal KVM data structures.
If this vCPU is not the BSP, but some not-yet-booted AP, the BSP may
never realize that there is an interrupt.
Fix that by enabling ExtINT delivery only for the BSP.
This allows booting a Linux guest without a TSC in the above situation.
Otherwise the BSP gets stuck in calibrate_delay_converge().

Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170130094940.13546-1-mhocko@kernel.org
[2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485273626.16328.301.camel@edumazet-glaptop3.roam.corp.google.com
This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.
This patch also changes some existing users and removes helpers which
are specific for them. In some cases this is not possible (e.g.
ext4_kvmalloc, libcfs_kvzalloc) because those seems to be broken and
require GFP_NO{FS,IO} context which is not vmalloc compatible in general
(note that the page table allocation is GFP_KERNEL). Those need to be
fixed separately.
While we are at it, document that __vmalloc{_node} about unsupported gfp
mask because there seems to be a lot of confusion out there.
kvmalloc_node will warn about GFP_KERNEL incompatible (which are not
superset) flags to catch new abusers. Existing ones would have to die
slowly.

This reverts commit bbd6411513.
I've been sitting on this revert for too long and it unfortunately
missed 4.11. It's also the reason why I haven't merged ring-based
dirty tracking for 4.12.
Using kvm_vcpu_memslots in kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init and
kvm_vcpu_write_guest_offset_cached means that the MSR value can
now be used to access SMRAM, simply by making it point to an SMRAM
physical address. This is problematic because it lets the guest
OS overwrite memory that it shouldn't be able to touch.

Since bf9f6ac8d7 ("KVM: Update Posted-Interrupts Descriptor when vCPU
is blocked", 2015-09-18) the posted interrupt descriptor is checked
unconditionally for PIR.ON. Therefore we don't need KVM_REQ_EVENT to
trigger the scan and, if NMIs or SMIs are not involved, we can avoid
the complicated event injection path.
Calling kvm_vcpu_kick if PIR.ON=1 is also useless, though it has been
there since APICv was introduced.
However, without the KVM_REQ_EVENT safety net KVM needs to be much
more careful about races between vmx_deliver_posted_interrupt and
vcpu_enter_guest. First, the IPI for posted interrupts may be issued
between setting vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE and disabling interrupts.
If that happens, kvm_trigger_posted_interrupt returns true, but
smp_kvm_posted_intr_ipi doesn't do anything about it. The guest is
entered with PIR.ON, but the posted interrupt IPI has not been sent
and the interrupt is only delivered to the guest on the next vmentry
(if any). To fix this, disable interrupts before setting vcpu->mode.
This ensures that the IPI is delayed until the guest enters non-root mode;
it is then trapped by the processor causing the interrupt to be injected.
Second, the IPI may be issued between kvm_x86_ops->sync_pir_to_irr(vcpu)
and vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE. In this case, kvm_vcpu_kick is called
but it (correctly) doesn't do anything because it sees vcpu->mode ==
OUTSIDE_GUEST_MODE. Again, the guest is entered with PIR.ON but no
posted interrupt IPI is pending; this time, the fix for this is to move
the RVI update after IN_GUEST_MODE.
Both issues were mostly masked by the liberal usage of KVM_REQ_EVENT,
though the second could actually happen with VT-d posted interrupts.
In both race scenarios KVM_REQ_EVENT would cancel guest entry, resulting
in another vmentry which would inject the interrupt.
This saves about 300 cycles on the self_ipi_* tests of vmexit.flat.

Calls to apic_find_highest_irr are scanning IRR twice, once
in vmx_sync_pir_from_irr and once in apic_search_irr. Change
sync_pir_from_irr to get the new maximum IRR from kvm_apic_update_irr;
now that it does the computation, it can also do the RVI write.
In order to avoid complications in svm.c, make the callback optional.

Pending interrupts might be in the PI descriptor when the
LAPIC is restored from an external state; we do not want
them to be injected.

KVM's lapic emulation uses static_key_deferred (apic_{hw,sw}_disabled).
These are implemented with delayed_work structs which can still be
pending when the KVM module is unloaded. We've seen this cause kernel
panics when the kvm_intel module is quickly reloaded.
Use the new static_key_deferred_flush() API to flush pending updates on
module unload.

On interrupt delivery the PPR can only grow (except for auto-EOI),
so it is impossible that non-auto-EOI interrupt delivery results
in KVM_REQ_EVENT. We can therefore use __apic_update_ppr.

On PPR update, we set KVM_REQ_EVENT unconditionally anytime PPR is lowered.
But we can take into account IRR here already.

PPR needs to be updated whenever on every IRR read because we
may have missed TPR writes that _increased_ PPR. However, these
writes need not generate KVM_REQ_EVENT, because either KVM_REQ_EVENT
has been set already in __apic_accept_irq, or we are going to
process the interrupt right away.

Since we're already in VCPU context, all we have to do here is recompute
the PPR value. That will in turn generate a KVM_REQ_EVENT if necessary.

LAPIC after reset is in xAPIC mode, which poses a problem for hotplug of
VCPUs with high APIC ID, because reset VCPU is waiting for INIT/SIPI,
but there is no way to uniquely address it using xAPIC.
From many possible options, we chose the one that also works on real
hardware: accepting interrupts addressed to LAPIC's x2APIC ID even in
xAPIC mode.
KVM intentionally differs from real hardware, because real hardware
(Knights Landing) does just "x2apic_id & 0xff" to decide whether to
accept the interrupt in xAPIC mode and it can deliver one interrupt to
more than one physical destination, e.g. 0x123 to 0x123 and 0x23.

There were three calls sites:
- recalculate_apic_map and kvm_apic_match_physical_addr, where it would
only complicate implementation of x2APIC hotplug;
- in apic_debug, where it was still somewhat preserved, but keeping the
old function just for apic_debug was not worth it

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

On some benchmarks (e.g. netperf with ioeventfd disabled), APICv
posted interrupts turn out to be slower than interrupt injection via
KVM_REQ_EVENT.
This patch optimizes a bit the IRR update, avoiding expensive atomic
operations in the common case where PI.ON=0 at vmentry or the PIR vector
is mostly zero. This saves at least 20 cycles (1%) per vmexit, as
measured by kvm-unit-tests' inl_from_qemu test (20 runs):
| enable_apicv=1 | enable_apicv=0
| mean stdev | mean stdev
----------|-----------------|------------------
before | 5826 32.65 | 5765 47.09
after | 5809 43.42 | 5777 77.02
Of course, any change in the right column is just placebo effect. :)
The savings are bigger if interrupts are frequent.

Most windows guests still utilize APIC Timer periodic/oneshot mode
instead of tsc-deadline mode, and the APIC Timer periodic/oneshot
mode are still emulated by high overhead hrtimer on host. This patch
converts the expected expire time of the periodic/oneshot mode to
guest deadline tsc in order to leverage VMX preemption timer logic
for APIC Timer tsc-deadline mode. After each preemption timer vmexit
preemption timer is restarted to emulate LVTT current-count register
is automatically reloaded from the initial-count register when the
count reaches 0. This patch reduces ~5600 cycles for each APIC Timer
periodic mode operation virtualization.
