Dedicated instances are currently disturbed by unnecessary jitter due
to the emulated lapic timers firing on the same pCPUs where the
vCPUs reside. There is no hardware virtual timer on Intel for guest
like ARM, so both programming timer in guest and the emulated timer fires
incur vmexits. This patch tries to avoid vmexit when the emulated timer
fires, at least in dedicated instance scenario when nohz_full is enabled.
In that case, the emulated timers can be offload to the nearest busy
housekeeping cpus since APICv has been found for several years in server
processors. The guest timer interrupt can then be injected via posted interrupts,
which are delivered by the housekeeping cpu once the emulated timer fires.
The host should tuned so that vCPUs are placed on isolated physical
processors, and with several pCPUs surplus for busy housekeeping.
If disabled mwait/hlt/pause vmexits keep the vCPUs in non-root mode,
~3% redis performance benefit can be observed on Skylake server, and the
number of external interrupt vmexits drops substantially. Without patch

Advance lapic timer tries to hidden the hypervisor overhead between the
host emulated timer fires and the guest awares the timer is fired. However,
it just hidden the time between apic_timer_fn/handle_preemption_timer ->
wait_lapic_expire, instead of the real position of vmentry which is
mentioned in the orignial commit d0659d946b ("KVM: x86: add option to
advance tscdeadline hrtimer expiration"). There is 700+ cpu cycles between
the end of wait_lapic_expire and before world switch on my haswell desktop.
This patch tries to narrow the last gap(wait_lapic_expire -> world switch),
it takes the real overhead time between apic_timer_fn/handle_preemption_timer
and before world switch into consideration when adaptively tuning timer
advancement. The patch can reduce 40% latency (~1600+ cycles to ~1000+ cycles
on a haswell desktop) for kvm-unit-tests/tscdeadline_latency when testing
busy waits.

The introduction of adaptive tuning of lapic timer advancement did not
allow for the scenario where userspace would want to disable adaptive
tuning but still employ timer advancement, e.g. for testing purposes or
to handle a use case where adaptive tuning is unable to settle on a
suitable time. This is epecially pertinent now that KVM places a hard
threshold on the maximum advancment time.
Rework the timer semantics to accept signed values, with a value of '-1'
being interpreted as "use adaptive tuning with KVM's internal default",
and any other value being used as an explicit advancement time, e.g. a
time of '0' effectively disables advancement.
Note, this does not completely restore the original behavior of
lapic_timer_advance_ns. Prior to tracking the advancement per vCPU,
which is necessary to support autotuning, userspace could adjust
lapic_timer_advance_ns for *running* vCPU. With per-vCPU tracking, the
module params are snapshotted at vCPU creation, i.e. applying a new
advancement effectively requires restarting a VM.
Dynamically updating a running vCPU is possible, e.g. a helper could be
added to retrieve the desired delay, choosing between the global module
param and the per-VCPU value depending on whether or not auto-tuning is
(globally) enabled, but introduces a great deal of complexity. The
wrapper itself is not complex, but understanding and documenting the
effects of dynamically toggling auto-tuning and/or adjusting the timer
advancement is nigh impossible since the behavior would be dependent on
KVM's implementation as well as compiler optimizations. In other words,
providing stable behavior would require extremely careful consideration
now and in the future.
Given that the expected use of a manually-tuned timer advancement is to
"tune once, run many", use the vastly simpler approach of recognizing
changes to the module params only when creating a new vCPU.

Automatically adjusting the globally-shared timer advancement could
corrupt the timer, e.g. if multiple vCPUs are concurrently adjusting
the advancement value. That could be partially fixed by using a local
variable for the arithmetic, but it would still be susceptible to a
race when setting timer_advance_adjust_done.
And because virtual_tsc_khz and tsc_scaling_ratio are per-vCPU, the
correct calibration for a given vCPU may not apply to all vCPUs.
Furthermore, lapic_timer_advance_ns is marked __read_mostly, which is
effectively violated when finding a stable advancement takes an extended
amount of timer.
Opportunistically change the definition of lapic_timer_advance_ns to
a u32 so that it matches the style of struct kvm_timer. Explicitly
pass the param to kvm_create_lapic() so that it doesn't have to be
exposed to lapic.c, thus reducing the probability of unintentionally
using the global value instead of the per-vCPU value.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer.
The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit
will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires.
When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use
an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU
thread is unblocked.
This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host
timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math
(for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion)
and a cheaper VMexit. This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs.
[A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average
latency from cyclictest. I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency
from kvm-unit-tests, and measured
- ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still
statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts
just after programming the TSC deadline timer
- ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case
where the test busy waits.

SynIC (synthetic interrupt controller) is a lapic extension,
which is controlled via MSRs and maintains for each vCPU
- 16 synthetic interrupt "lines" (SINT's); each can be configured to
trigger a specific interrupt vector optionally with auto-EOI
semantics
- a message page in the guest memory with 16 256-byte per-SINT message
slots
- an event flag page in the guest memory with 16 2048-bit per-SINT
event flag areas
The host triggers a SINT whenever it delivers a new message to the
corresponding slot or flips an event flag bit in the corresponding area.
The guest informs the host that it can try delivering a message by
explicitly asserting EOI in lapic or writing to End-Of-Message (EOM)
MSR.
The userspace (qemu) triggers interrupts and receives EOM notifications
via irqfd with resampler; for that, a GSI is allocated for each
configured SINT, and irq_routing api is extended to support GSI-SINT
mapping.
Changes v4:
* added activation of SynIC by vcpu KVM_ENABLE_CAP
* added per SynIC active flag
* added deactivation of APICv upon SynIC activation

The decision on whether to use hardware APIC virtualization used to be

However, under certain circumstances we want to control it on per-vcpu
basis. In particular, when the userspace activates HyperV synthetic
interrupt controller (SynIC), APICv has to be disabled as it's
incompatible with SynIC auto-EOI behavior.
To achieve that, introduce 'apicv_active' flag on struct
kvm_vcpu_arch, and kvm_vcpu_deactivate_apicv() function to turn APICv
off. The flag is initialized based on the module parameter and CPU
capability, and consulted whenever an APICv-specific action is

x86 architecture defines differences between the reset and INIT sequences.
INIT does not initialize the FPU (including MMX, XMM, YMM, etc.), TSC, PMU,
MSRs (in general), MTRRs machine-check, APIC ID, APIC arbitration ID and BSP.
References (from Intel SDM):
"If the MP protocol has completed and a BSP is chosen, subsequent INITs (either
to a specific processor or system wide) do not cause the MP protocol to be
repeated." [8.4.2: MP Initialization Protocol Requirements and Restrictions]
[Table 9-1. IA-32 Processor States Following Power-up, Reset, or INIT]
"If the processor is reset by asserting the INIT# pin, the x87 FPU state is not
changed." [9.2: X87 FPU INITIALIZATION]
"The state of the local APIC following an INIT reset is the same as it is after
a power-up or hardware reset, except that the APIC ID and arbitration ID
registers are not affected." [10.4.7.3: Local APIC State After an INIT Reset
("Wait-for-SIPI" State)]

recalculate_apic_map() uses two passes over all VCPUs. This is a relic
from time when we selected a global mode in the first pass and set up
the optimized table in the second pass (to have a consistent mode).
Recent changes made mixed mode unoptimized and we can do it in one pass.
Format of logical MDA is a function of the mode, so we encode it in
apic_logical_id() and drop obsoleted variables from the struct.

iodev.h contains definitions for the kvm_io_bus framework. This is
needed both by the generic KVM code in virt/kvm as well as by
architecture specific code under arch/. Putting the header file in
virt/kvm and using local includes in the architecture part seems at
least dodgy to me, so let's move the file into include/kvm, so that a
more natural "#include <kvm/iodev.h>" can be used by all of the code.
This also solves a problem later when using struct kvm_io_device
in arm_vgic.h.
Fixing up the FSF address in the GPL header and a wrong include path
on the way.

If vcpu has a interrupt in vmx non-root mode, injecting that interrupt
requires a vmexit. With posted interrupt processing, the vmexit
is not needed, and interrupts are fully taken care of by hardware.
In nested vmx, this feature avoids much more vmexits than non-nested vmx.
When L1 asks L0 to deliver L1's posted interrupt vector, and the target
VCPU is in non-root mode, we use a physical ipi to deliver POSTED_INTR_NV
to the target vCPU. Using POSTED_INTR_NV avoids unexpected interrupts
if a concurrent vmexit happens and L1's vector is different with L0's.
The IPI triggers posted interrupt processing in the target physical CPU.
In case the target vCPU was not in guest mode, complete the posted
interrupt delivery on the next entry to L2.

For the hrtimer which emulates the tscdeadline timer in the guest,
add an option to advance expiration, and busy spin on VM-entry waiting
for the actual expiration time to elapse.
This allows achieving low latencies in cyclictest (or any scenario
which requires strict timing regarding timer expiration).
Reduces average cyclictest latency from 12us to 8us
on Core i5 desktop.
Note: this option requires tuning to find the appropriate value
for a particular hardware/guest combination. One method is to measure the
average delay between apic_timer_fn and VM-entry.
Another method is to start with 1000ns, and increase the value
in say 500ns increments until avg cyclictest numbers stop decreasing.

While fixing an x2apic bug,
17d68b7 KVM: x86: fix guest-initiated crash with x2apic (CVE-2013-6376)
we've made only one cluster available. This means that the amount of
logically addressible x2APICs was reduced to 16 and VCPUs kept
overwriting themselves in that region, so even the first cluster wasn't
set up correctly.
This patch extends x2APIC support back to the logical_map's limit, and
keeps the CVE fixed as messages for non-present APICs are dropped.

APIC-write VM exits are "trap-like": they save CS:RIP values for the
instruction after the write, and more importantly, the handler will
already see the new value in the virtual-APIC page. This means that
apic_reg_write cannot use kvm_apic_get_reg to omit timer cancelation
when mode changes.
timer_mode_mask shouldn't be changing as it depends on cpuid.

This caused a bug if you used KVM_SET_IRQCHIP to set the SW-enabled bit
in the SPIV register. The chain of events is as follows:
* When the irqchip is added to the destination VM, the apic_sw_disabled
static key is incremented (1)
* When the KVM_SET_IRQCHIP ioctl is invoked, it is decremented (0)
* When the guest disables the bit in the SPIV register, e.g. as part of
shutdown, apic_set_spiv does not notice the change and the static key is
_not_ incremented.
* When the guest is destroyed, the static key is decremented (-1),
resulting in this trace:

KVM does not deliver x2APIC broadcast messages with physical mode. Intel SDM
(10.12.9 ICR Operation in x2APIC Mode) states: "A destination ID value of
FFFF_FFFFH is used for broadcast of interrupts in both logical destination and
physical destination modes."
In addition, the local-apic enables cluster mode broadcast. As Intel SDM
10.6.2.2 says: "Broadcast to all local APICs is achieved by setting all
destination bits to one." This patch enables cluster mode broadcast.
The fix tries to combine broadcast in different modes through a unified code.
One rare case occurs when the source of IPI has its APIC disabled. In such
case, the source can still issue IPIs, but since the source is not obliged to
have the same LAPIC mode as the enabled ones, we cannot rely on it.
Since it is a rare case, it is unoptimized and done on the slow-path.
