Expose the virtio-rtc UTC-like clock as an RTC clock to userspace - if it
is present, and if it does not step on leap seconds. The RTC class enables
the virtio-rtc device to resume the system from sleep states on RTC alarm.
Support RTC alarm if the virtio-rtc alarm feature is present. The
virtio-rtc device signals an alarm by marking an alarmq buffer as used.
Peculiarities
-------------
A virtio-rtc clock is a bit special for an RTC clock in that
- the clock may step (also backwards) autonomously at any time and
- the device, and its notification mechanism, will be reset during boot or
resume from sleep.
The virtio-rtc device avoids that the driver might miss an alarm. The
device signals an alarm whenever the clock has reached or passed the alarm
time, and also when the device is reset (on boot or resume from sleep), if
the alarm time is in the past.
Open Issue
----------
The CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM will use the RTC clock to wake up from sleep, and
implicitly assumes that no RTC clock steps will occur during sleep. The RTC
class driver does not know whether the current alarm is a real-time alarm
or a boot-time alarm.
Perhaps this might be handled by the driver also setting a virtio-rtc
monotonic alarm (which uses a clock similar to CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM). The
virtio-rtc monotonic alarm would just be used to wake up in case it was a
CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM alarm.
Otherwise, the behavior should not differ from other RTC class drivers.

Expose the virtio_rtc clocks as PTP clocks to userspace, similar to
ptp_kvm. virtio_rtc can expose multiple clocks, e.g. a UTC clock and a
monotonic clock.
Userspace should distinguish different clocks through the name assigned by
the driver. In particular, UTC-like clocks can also be distinguished by if
and how leap seconds are smeared. udev rules such as the following can be
used to get different symlinks for different clock types:
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 0/variant 0", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 1/variant 0", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_tai"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 2/variant 0", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_monotonic"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 3/variant 0", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_smear_unspecified"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 3/variant 1", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_smear_noon_linear"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 3/variant 2", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_smear_sls"
SUBSYSTEM=="ptp", ATTR{clock_name}=="Virtio PTP type 4/variant 0", SYMLINK += "ptp_virtio_maybe_smeared"
The preferred PTP clock reading method is ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE2,
through the ptp_clock_info.getcrosststamp() op. For now,
PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE2 will return -EOPNOTSUPP through a weak function.
PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE2 requires cross-timestamping support for specific
clocksources, which will be added in the following. If the clocksource
specific code is enabled, check that the Virtio RTC device supports the
respective HW counter before obtaining an actual cross-timestamp from the
Virtio device.
The Virtio RTC device response time may be higher than the timekeeper
seqcount increment interval. Therefore, obtain the cross-timestamp before
calling get_device_system_crosststamp().
As a fallback, support the ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED2 for all
platforms.
Assume that concurrency issues during PTP clock removal are avoided by the
posix_clock framework.
Kconfig recursive dependencies prevent virtio_rtc from implicitly enabling
PTP_1588_CLOCK, therefore just warn the user if PTP_1588_CLOCK is not
available. Since virtio_rtc should in the future also expose clocks as RTC
class devices, do not depend VIRTIO_RTC on PTP_1588_CLOCK.

Add the virtio_rtc module and driver core. The virtio_rtc module implements
a driver compatible with the proposed Virtio RTC device specification.
The Virtio RTC (Real Time Clock) device provides information about current
time. The device can provide different clocks, e.g. for the UTC or TAI time
standards, or for physical time elapsed since some past epoch. The driver
can read the clocks with simple or more accurate methods.
Implement the core, which interacts with the Virtio RTC device. Apart from
this, the core does not expose functionality outside of the virtio_rtc
module. Follow-up patches will expose PTP clocks and an RTC Class device.
Provide synchronous messaging, which is enough for the expected time
synchronization use cases through PTP clocks (similar to ptp_kvm) or RTC
Class device.

Now that s390 code is prepared for memory devices that reside above the
maximum storage increment exposed through SCLP, everything is in place
to unlock virtio-mem support.
As virtio-mem in Linux currently supports logically onlining/offlining
memory in pageblock granularity, we have an effective hot(un)plug
granularity of 1 MiB on s390.
As virito-mem adds/removes individual Linux memory blocks (256MB), we
will currently never use gigantic pages in the identity mapping.
It is worth noting that neither storage keys nor storage attributes (e.g.,
data / nodat) are touched when onlining memory blocks, which is good
because we are not supposed to touch these parts for unplugged device
blocks that are logically offline in Linux.
We will currently never initialize storage keys for virtio-mem
memory -- IOW, storage_key_init_range() is never called. It could be added
in the future when plugging device blocks. But as that function
essentially does nothing without modifying the code (changing
PAGE_DEFAULT_ACC), that's just fine for now.
kexec should work as intended and just like on other architectures that
support virtio-mem: we will never place kexec binaries on virtio-mem
memory, and never indicate virtio-mem memory to the 2nd kernel. The
device driver in the 2nd kernel can simply reset the device --
turning all memory unplugged, to then start plugging memory and adding
them to Linux, without causing trouble because the memory is already
used elsewhere.
The special s390 kdump mode, whereby the 2nd kernel creates the ELF
core header, won't currently dump virtio-mem memory. The virtio-mem
driver has a special kdump mode, from where we can detect memory ranges
to dump. Based on this, support for dumping virtio-mem memory can be
added in the future fairly easily.

Currently there is no way for user to set what features the driver
should obey or not, it is hard wired in the code.
In order to be able to debug the device behavior in case some feature is
disabled, introduce a debugfs infrastructure with couple of files
allowing user to see what features the device advertises and
to set filter for features used by driver.
Example:
$cat /sys/bus/virtio/devices/virtio0/features
1110010111111111111101010000110010000000100000000000000000000000
$ echo "5" >/sys/kernel/debug/virtio/virtio0/filter_feature_add
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/virtio/virtio0/filter_features
5
$ echo "virtio0" > /sys/bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_net/unbind
$ echo "virtio0" > /sys/bus/virtio/drivers/virtio_net/bind
$ cat /sys/bus/virtio/devices/virtio0/features
1110000111111111111101010000110010000000100000000000000000000000

touch it.

Instead of having a global flag to require restricted memory access
for all virtio devices, introduce a callback which can select that
requirement on a per-device basis.
For convenience add a common function returning always true, which can
be used for use cases like SEV.
Per default use a callback always returning false.
As the callback needs to be set in early init code already, add a
virtio anchor which is builtin in case virtio is enabled.

We try to harden virtio device notifications in 8b4ec69d7e ("virtio:
harden vring IRQ"). It works with the assumption that the driver or
core can properly call virtio_device_ready() at the right
place. Unfortunately, this seems to be not true and uncover various
bugs of the existing drivers, mainly the issue of using
virtio_device_ready() incorrectly.
So let's add a Kconfig option and disable it by default. It gives
us time to fix the drivers and then we can consider re-enabling it.

We don't want user space to be able to map virtio-mem device memory
directly (e.g., via /dev/mem) in order to have guarantees that in a sane
setup we'll never accidentially access unplugged memory within the
device-managed region of a virtio-mem device, just as required by the
virtio-spec.
As soon as the virtio-mem driver is loaded, the device region is visible
in /proc/iomem via the parent device region. From that point on user
space is aware of the device region and we want to disallow mapping
anything inside that region (where we will dynamically (un)plug memory)
until the driver has been unloaded cleanly and e.g., another driver might
take over.
By creating our parent IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM resource with
IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, we will disallow any /dev/mem access to our device
region until the driver was unloaded cleanly and removed the parent
region. This will work even though only some memory blocks are actually
currently added to Linux and appear as busy in the resource tree.
So access to the region from user space is only possible
a) if we don't load the virtio-mem driver.
b) after unloading the virtio-mem driver cleanly.
Don't build virtio-mem if access to /dev/mem cannot be restricticted -- if
we have CONFIG_DEVMEM=y but CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is not set.
