Marc Zyngier 8fe30434a8 KVM: arm64: Kill arch_timer_context::direct field
The newly introduced arch_timer_context::direct field is a bit pointless,
as it is always set on timers that are... err... direct, while
we already have a way to get to that by doing a get_map() operation.

Additionally, this field is:

- only set when get_map() is called

- never cleared

and the single point where it is actually checked doesn't call get_map()
at all.

At this stage, it is probably better to just kill it, and rely on
get_map() to give us the correct information.

Sascha BischoffandMarc Zyngier 9491c63b6c KVM: arm64: gic-v5: Enlighten arch timer for GICv5
Now that GICv5 has arrived, the arch timer requires some TLC to
address some of the key differences introduced with GICv5.

For PPIs on GICv5, the queue_irq_unlock irq_op is used as AP lists are
not required at all for GICv5. The arch timer also introduces an
irq_op - get_input_level. Extend the arch-timer-provided irq_ops to
include the PPI op for vgic_v5 guests.

When possible, DVI (Direct Virtual Interrupt) is set for PPIs when
using a vgic_v5, which directly inject the pending state into the
guest. This means that the host never sees the interrupt for the guest
for these interrupts. This has three impacts.

* First of all, the kvm_cpu_has_pending_timer check is updated to
  explicitly check if the timers are expected to fire.

* Secondly, for mapped timers (which use DVI) they must be masked on
  the host prior to entering a GICv5 guest, and unmasked on the return
  path. This is handled in set_timer_irq_phys_masked.

* Thirdly, it makes zero sense to attempt to inject state for a DVI'd
  interrupt. Track which timers are direct, and skip the call to
  kvm_vgic_inject_irq() for these.

The final, but rather important, change is that the architected PPIs
for the timers are made mandatory for a GICv5 guest. Attempts to set
them to anything else are actively rejected. Once a vgic_v5 is
initialised, the arch timer PPIs are also explicitly reinitialised to
ensure the correct GICv5-compatible PPIs are used - this also adds in
the GICv5 PPI type to the intid.

Marc Zyngier 0bc9a9e85f KVM: arm64: Work around x1e's CNTVOFF_EL2 bogosity
It appears that on Qualcomm's x1e CPU, CNTVOFF_EL2 doesn't really
work, specially with HCR_EL2.E2H=1.

A non-zero offset results in a screaming virtual timer interrupt,
to the tune of a few 100k interrupts per second on a 4 vcpu VM.
This is also evidenced by this CPU's inability to correctly run
any of the timer selftests.

The only case this doesn't break is when this register is set to 0,
which breaks VM migration.

When HCR_EL2.E2H=0, the timer seems to behave normally, and does
not result in an interrupt storm.

As a workaround, use the fact that this CPU implements FEAT_ECV,
and trap all accesses to the virtual timer and counter, keeping
CNTVOFF_EL2 set to zero, and emulate accesses to CVAL/TVAL/CTL
and the counter itself, fixing up the timer to account for the
missing offset.

And if you think this is disgusting, you'd probably be right.

Marc Zyngier 9404673293 KVM: arm64: timers: Correctly handle TGE flip with CNTPOFF_EL2
Contrary to common belief, HCR_EL2.TGE has a direct and immediate
effect on the way the EL0 physical counter is offset. Flipping
TGE from 1 to 0 while at EL2 immediately changes the way the counter
compared to the CVAL limit.

This means that we cannot directly save/restore the guest's view of
CVAL, but that we instead must treat it as if CNTPOFF didn't exist.
Only in the world switch, once we figure out that we do have CNTPOFF,
can we must the offset back and forth depending on the polarity of
TGE.

Emulating EL2 also means emulating the EL2 timers. To do so, we expand

The role of deciding which is which at any given time is left to a
mapping function which is called every time we need to make such a
decision.

Having a per-vcpu virtual offset is a pain. It needs to be synchronized

So let's start by replacing the use of the CNTVOFF_EL2 shadow register
(which we want to reclaim for NV anyway), and make the virtual timer
carry a pointer to a VM-wide offset.

This simplifies the code significantly. It also addresses two terrible bugs:

- The use of CNTVOFF_EL2 leads to some nice offset corruption
  when the sysreg gets reset, as reported by Joey.

- The kvm mutex is taken from a vcpu ioctl, which goes against
  the locking rules...

Define pr_fmt using KBUILD_MODNAME for all KVM x86 code so that printks
use consistent formatting across common x86, Intel, and AMD code.  In
addition to providing consistent print formatting, using KBUILD_MODNAME,
e.g. kvm_amd and kvm_intel, allows referencing SVM and VMX (and SEV and
SGX and ...) as technologies without generating weird messages, and
without causing naming conflicts with other kernel code, e.g. "SEV: ",
"tdx: ", "sgx: " etc.. are all used by the kernel for non-KVM subsystems.

Opportunistically move away from printk() for prints that need to be
modified anyways, e.g. to drop a manual "kvm: " prefix.

Opportunistically convert a few SGX WARNs that are similarly modified to
WARN_ONCE; in the very unlikely event that the WARNs fire, odds are good
that they would fire repeatedly and spam the kernel log without providing
unique information in each print.

Note, defining pr_fmt yields undesirable results for code that uses KVM's
printk wrappers, e.g. vcpu_unimpl().  But, that's a pre-existing problem
as SVM/kvm_amd already defines a pr_fmt, and thankfully use of KVM's
wrappers is relatively limited in KVM x86 code.
