We currently do a single update of the vgic state when the distributor
enable/disable control register is accessed and then bypass updating the
state for as long as the distributor remains disabled.
This is incorrect, because updating the state does not consider the
distributor enable bit, and this you can end up in a situation where an
interrupt is marked as pending on the CPU interface, but not pending on
the distributor, which is an impossible state to be in, and triggers a
warning. Consider for example the following sequence of events:
1. An interrupt is marked as pending on the distributor
- the interrupt is also forwarded to the CPU interface
2. The guest turns off the distributor (it's about to do a reboot)
- we stop updating the CPU interface state from now on
3. The guest disables the pending interrupt
- we remove the pending state from the distributor, but don't touch
the CPU interface, see point 2.
Since the distributor disable bit really means that no interrupts should
be forwarded to the CPU interface, we modify the code to keep updating
the internal VGIC state, but always set the CPU interface pending bits
to zero when the distributor is disabled.

When a guest reboots or offlines/onlines CPUs, it is not uncommon for it
to clear the pending and active states of an interrupt through the
emulated VGIC distributor. However, since the architected timers are
defined by the architecture to be level triggered and the guest
rightfully expects them to be that, but we emulate them as
edge-triggered, we have to mimic level-triggered behavior for an
edge-triggered virtual implementation.
We currently do not signal the VGIC when the map->active field is true,
because it indicates that the guest has already been signalled of the
interrupt as required. Normally this field is set to false when the
guest deactivates the virtual interrupt through the sync path.
We also need to catch the case where the guest deactivates the interrupt
through the emulated distributor, again allowing guests to boot even if
the original virtual timer signal hit before the guest's GIC
initialization sequence is run.

We have an interesting issue when the guest disables the timer interrupt
on the VGIC, which happens when turning VCPUs off using PSCI, for
example.
The problem is that because the guest disables the virtual interrupt at
the VGIC level, we never inject interrupts to the guest and therefore
never mark the interrupt as active on the physical distributor. The
host also never takes the timer interrupt (we only use the timer device
to trigger a guest exit and everything else is done in software), so the
interrupt does not become active through normal means.
The result is that we keep entering the guest with a programmed timer
that will always fire as soon as we context switch the hardware timer
state and run the guest, preventing forward progress for the VCPU.
Since the active state on the physical distributor is really part of the
timer logic, it is the job of our virtual arch timer driver to manage
this state.
The timer->map->active boolean field indicates whether we have signalled
this interrupt to the vgic and if that interrupt is still pending or
active. As long as that is the case, the hardware doesn't have to
generate physical interrupts and therefore we mark the interrupt as
active on the physical distributor.
We also have to restore the pending state of an interrupt that was
queued to an LR but was retired from the LR for some reason, while
remaining pending in the LR.

When lowering a level-triggered line from userspace, we forgot to lower
the pending bit on the emulated CPU interface and we also did not
re-compute the pending_on_cpu bitmap for the CPU affected by the change.
Update vgic_update_irq_pending() to fix the two issues above and also
raise a warning in vgic_quue_irq_to_lr if we encounter an interrupt
pending on a CPU which is neither marked active nor pending.

Allow for arch-specific interrupt types to be set. For that, add
kvm_arch_set_irq() which takes interrupt type-specific action if it
recognizes the interrupt type given, and -EWOULDBLOCK otherwise.
The default implementation always returns -EWOULDBLOCK.

preceding memory barriers, after sending a patch to fix a similar

Hardware virtualisation of GICv3 is only supported by 64bit hosts for
the moment. Some VGICv3 bits are missing from the 32bit side, and this
patch allows to still be able to build 32bit hosts when CONFIG_ARM_GIC_V3
is selected.
To this end, we introduce a new option, CONFIG_KVM_ARM_VGIC_V3, that is
only enabled on the 64bit side. The selection is done unconditionally
because CONFIG_ARM_GIC_V3 is always enabled on arm64.

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.

Second set of KVM/ARM changes for 4.3-rc2
- Workaround for a Cortex-A57 erratum
- Bug fix for the debugging infrastructure
- Fix for 32bit guests with more than 4GB of address space
on a 32bit host
- A number of fixes for the (unusual) case when we don't use
the in-kernel GIC emulation
- Removal of ThumbEE handling on arm64, since these have been
dropped from the architecture before anyone actually ever
built a CPU
- Remove the KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS limitation which has become
fairly pointless
This patch removes config option of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS,
and like other ARCHs, just choose the maximum allowed
value from hardware, and follows the reasons:
1) from distribution view, the option has to be
defined as the max allowed value because it need to
meet all kinds of virtulization applications and
need to support most of SoCs;
2) using a bigger value doesn't introduce extra memory
consumption, and the help text in Kconfig isn't accurate
because kvm_vpu structure isn't allocated until request
of creating VCPU is sent from QEMU;
3) the main effect is that the field of vcpus[] in 'struct kvm'
becomes a bit bigger(sizeof(void *) per vcpu) and need more cache
lines to hold the structure, but 'struct kvm' is one generic struct,
and it has worked well on other ARCHs already in this way. Also,
the world switch frequecy is often low, for example, it is ~2000
when running kernel building load in VM from APM xgene KVM host,
so the effect is very small, and the difference can't be observed
in my test at all.

This new statistic can help diagnosing VCPUs that, for any reason,
trigger bad behavior of halt_poll_ns autotuning.
For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly
like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes
10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every
479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then
is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without
polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of
attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

Currently, if we had a zero length mmio eventfd assigned on
KVM_MMIO_BUS. It will never be found by kvm_io_bus_cmp() since it
always compares the kvm_io_range() with the length that guest
wrote. This will cause e.g for vhost, kick will be trapped by qemu
userspace instead of vhost. Fixing this by using zero length if an
iodevice is zero length.
