Since 2.7 commit (b2a575a Add optionrom compatible with fw_cfg DMA version)
regressed migration during firmware exection time by
abusing fwcfg.dma_enabled property to decide loading
dma version of option rom AND by mistake disabling DMA
for 2.6 and earlier globally instead of only for option rom.
so 2.6 machine type guest is broken when it already runs
firmware in DMA mode but migrated to qemu-2.7(pc-2.6)
at that time;
a) qemu-2.6:pc2.6 (fwcfg.dma=on,firmware=dma,oprom=ioport)
b) qemu-2.7:pc2.6 (fwcfg.dma=off,firmware=ioport,oprom=ioport)
to: a b
from
a OK FAIL
b OK OK
So we currently have broken forward migration from
qemu-2.6 to qemu-2.[789] that however could be fixed
for 2.10 by re-enabling DMA for 2.[56] machine types
and allowing dma capable option rom only since 2.7.
As result qemu should end up with:
c) qemu-2.10:pc2.6 (fwcfg.dma=on,firmware=dma,oprom=ioport)
to: a b c
from
a OK FAIL OK
b OK OK OK
c OK FAIL OK
where forward migration from qemu-2.6 to qemu-2.10 should
work again leaving only qemu-2.[789]:pc-2.6 broken.

This patch is based on Aviv Ben-David (<bd.aviv@gmail.com>)'s patch
upstream:
"IOMMU: enable intel_iommu map and unmap notifiers"
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-11/msg01453.html
However I removed/fixed some content, and added my own codes.
Instead of translate() every page for iotlb invalidations (which is
slower), we walk the pages when needed and notify in a hook function.
This patch enables vfio devices for VT-d emulation.
And, since we already have vhost DMAR support via device-iotlb, a
natural benefit that this patch brings is that vt-d enabled vhost can
live even without ATS capability now. Though more tests are needed.

This is preparation work to finally enabled dynamic switching ON/OFF for
VT-d protection. The old VT-d codes is using static IOMMU address space,
and that won't satisfy vfio-pci device listeners.
Let me explain.
vfio-pci devices depend on the memory region listener and IOMMU replay
mechanism to make sure the device mapping is coherent with the guest
even if there are domain switches. And there are two kinds of domain
switches:
(1) switch from domain A -> B
(2) switch from domain A -> no domain (e.g., turn DMAR off)
Case (1) is handled by the context entry invalidation handling by the
VT-d replay logic. What the replay function should do here is to replay
the existing page mappings in domain B.
However for case (2), we don't want to replay any domain mappings - we
just need the default GPA->HPA mappings (the address_space_memory
mapping). And this patch helps on case (2) to build up the mapping
automatically by leveraging the vfio-pci memory listeners.
Another important thing that this patch does is to seperate
IR (Interrupt Remapping) from DMAR (DMA Remapping). IR region should not
depend on the DMAR region (like before this patch). It should be a
standalone region, and it should be able to be activated without
DMAR (which is a common behavior of Linux kernel - by default it enables
IR while disabled DMAR).

Migration from a 2.3.0 qemu results in a reboot on the receiving QEMU
due to a disagreement about SM (System management) interrupts.
2.3.0 didn't have much SMI support, but it did set CPU_INTERRUPT_SMI
and this gets into the migration stream, but on 2.3.0 it
never got delivered.
~2.4.0 SMI interrupt support was added but was broken - so
that when a 2.3.0 stream was received it cleared the CPU_INTERRUPT_SMI
but never actually caused an interrupt.
The SMI delivery was recently fixed by 68c6efe07a, but the
effect now is that an incoming 2.3.0 stream takes the interrupt it
had flagged but it's bios can't actually handle it(I think
partly due to the original interrupt not being taken during boot?).
The consequence is a triple(?) fault and a reboot.
Tested from:
2.3.1 -M 2.3.0
2.7.0 -M 2.3.0
2.8.0 -M 2.3.0

The generic edk2 SMM infrastructure prefers
EFI_SMM_CONTROL2_PROTOCOL.Trigger() to inject an SMI on each processor. If
Trigger() only brings the current processor into SMM, then edk2 handles it
in the following ways:
(1) If Trigger() is executed by the BSP (which is guaranteed before
ExitBootServices(), but is not necessarily true at runtime), then:
(a) If edk2 has been configured for "traditional" SMM synchronization,
then the BSP sends directed SMIs to the APs with APIC delivery,
bringing them into SMM individually. Then the BSP runs the SMI
handler / dispatcher.
(b) If edk2 has been configured for "relaxed" SMM synchronization,
then the APs that are not already in SMM are not brought in, and
the BSP runs the SMI handler / dispatcher.
(2) If Trigger() is executed by an AP (which is possible after
ExitBootServices(), and can be forced e.g. by "taskset -c 1
efibootmgr"), then the AP in question brings in the BSP with a
directed SMI, and the BSP runs the SMI handler / dispatcher.
The smaller problem with (1a) and (2) is that the BSP and AP
synchronization is slow. For example, the "taskset -c 1 efibootmgr"
command from (2) can take more than 3 seconds to complete, because
efibootmgr accesses non-volatile UEFI variables intensively.
The larger problem is that QEMU's current behavior diverges from the
behavior usually seen on physical hardware, and that keeps exposing
obscure corner cases, race conditions and other instabilities in edk2,
which generally expects / prefers a software SMI to affect all CPUs at
once.
Therefore introduce the "broadcast SMI" feature that causes QEMU to inject
the SMI on all VCPUs.
While the original posting of this patch
<http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-10/msg05658.html>
only intended to speed up (2), based on our recent "stress testing" of SMM
this patch actually provides functional improvements.

Introduce the following fw_cfg files:
- "etc/smi/supported-features": a little endian uint64_t feature bitmap,
presenting the features known by the host to the guest. Read-only for
the guest.
The content of this file will be determined via bit-granularity ICH9-LPC
device properties, to be introduced later. For now, the bitmask is left
zeroed. The bits will be set from machine type compat properties and on
the QEMU command line, hence this file is not migrated.
- "etc/smi/requested-features": a little endian uint64_t feature bitmap,
representing the features the guest would like to request. Read-write
for the guest.
The guest can freely (re)write this file, it has no direct consequence.
Initial value is zero. A nonzero value causes the SMI-related fw_cfg
files and fields that are under guest influence to be migrated.
- "etc/smi/features-ok": contains a uint8_t value, and it is read-only for
the guest. When the guest selects the associated fw_cfg key, the guest
features are validated against the host features. In case of error, the
negotiation doesn't proceed, and the "features-ok" file remains zero. In
case of success, the "features-ok" file becomes (uint8_t)1, and the
negotiated features are locked down internally (to which no further
changes are possible until reset).
The initial value is zero. A nonzero value causes the SMI-related
fw_cfg files and fields that are under guest influence to be migrated.
The C-language fields backing the "supported-features" and
"requested-features" files are uint8_t arrays. This is because they carry
guest-side representation (our choice is little endian), while
VMSTATE_UINT64() assumes / implies host-side endianness for any uint64_t
fields. If we migrate a guest between hosts with different endiannesses
(which is possible with TCG), then the host-side value is preserved, and
the host-side representation is translated. This would be visible to the
guest through fw_cfg, unless we used plain byte arrays. So we do.

Cluster x2APIC cannot work without KVM's x2apic API when the maximal
APIC ID is greater than 8 and only KVM's LAPIC can support x2APIC, so we
forbid other APICs and also the old KVM case with less than 9, to
simplify the code.
There is no point in enabling EIM in forbidden APICs, so we keep it
enabled only for the KVM APIC; unconditionally, because making the
option depend on KVM version would be a maintanance burden.
Old QEMUs would enable eim whenever intremap was on, which would trick
guests into thinking that they can enable cluster x2APIC even if any
interrupt destination would get clamped to 8 bits.
Depending on your configuration, QEMU could notice that the destination
LAPIC is not present and report it with a very non-obvious:
KVM: injection failed, MSI lost (Operation not permitted)
Or the guest could say something about unexpected interrupts, because
clamping leads to aliasing so interrupts were being delivered to
incorrect VCPUs.
KVM_X2APIC_API is the feature that allows us to enable EIM for KVM.
QEMU 2.7 allowed EIM whenever interrupt remapping was enabled. In order
to keep backward compatibility, we again allow guests to misbehave in
non-obvious ways, and make it the default for old machine types.
A user can enable the buggy mode it with "x-buggy-eim=on".

Some software algorithms are based on the hardware's cache info, for example,
for x86 linux kernel, when cpu1 want to wakeup a task on cpu2, cpu1 will trigger
a resched IPI and told cpu2 to do the wakeup if they don't share low level
cache. Oppositely, cpu1 will access cpu2's runqueue directly if they share llc.
The relevant linux-kernel code as bellow:
static void ttwu_queue(struct task_struct *p, int cpu)
{
struct rq *rq = cpu_rq(cpu);
......
if (... && !cpus_share_cache(smp_processor_id(), cpu)) {
......
ttwu_queue_remote(p, cpu); /* will trigger RES IPI */
return;
}
......
ttwu_do_activate(rq, p, 0); /* access target's rq directly */
......
}
In real hardware, the cpus on the same socket share L3 cache, so one won't
trigger a resched IPIs when wakeup a task on others. But QEMU doesn't present a
virtual L3 cache info for VM, then the linux guest will trigger lots of RES IPIs
under some workloads even if the virtual cpus belongs to the same virtual socket.
For KVM, there will be lots of vmexit due to guest send IPIs.
The workload is a SAP HANA's testsuite, we run it one round(about 40 minuates)
and observe the (Suse11sp3)Guest's amounts of RES IPIs which triggering during
the period:

The VM's topology is "1*socket 8*cores 2*threads".
After present virtual L3 cache info for VM, the amounts of RES IPIs in guest
reduce 85%.
For KVM, vcpus send IPIs will cause vmexit which is expensive, so it can cause
severe performance degradation. We had tested the overall system performance if
vcpus actually run on sparate physical socket. With L3 cache, the performance
improves 7.2%~33.1%(avg:15.7%).

Further cleanup would need to call qemu_free_irq() at the appropriate
time, but for now this silences ASAN about direct leaks.

machine_class_base_init() member name is allocated by
machine_class_base_init(), but not freed by
machine_class_finalize(). Simply freeing there doesn't work,
because DEFINE_PC_MACHINE() overwrites it with a literal string.
Fix DEFINE_PC_MACHINE() not to overwrite it, and add the missing
free to machine_class_finalize().

qemu_irq is already a pointer, no need to have an extra pointer level.

Some old Linux kernels (upstream before v4.0), or any released RHEL
kernels has problem in sending APIC EOI when IR is enabled. Meanwhile,
many of them only support explicit EOI for IOAPIC, which is only
introduced in IOAPIC version 0x20. This patch provide a way to boost
QEMU IOAPIC to version 0x20, in order for QEMU to correctly receive EOI
messages.
Without boosting IOAPIC version to 0x20, kernels before commit d32932d
("x86/irq: Convert IOAPIC to use hierarchical irqdomain interfaces")
will have trouble enabling both IR and level-triggered interrupt devices
(like e1000).
To upgrade IOAPIC to version 0x20, we need to specify:
-global ioapic.version=0x20
To be compatible with old systems, 0x11 will still be the default IOAPIC
version. Here 0x11 and 0x20 are the only versions to be supported.
One thing to mention: this patch only applies to emulated IOAPIC. It
does not affect kernel IOAPIC behavior.
