The kvm API is a set of ioctls that are issued to control various aspects
|
|
|
|
|
of a virtual machine. The ioctls belong to three classes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- System ioctls: These query and set global attributes which affect the
|
|
|
|
|
whole kvm subsystem. In addition a system ioctl is used to create
|
|
|
|
|
virtual machines
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- VM ioctls: These query and set attributes that affect an entire virtual
|
|
|
|
|
machine, for example memory layout. In addition a VM ioctl is used to
|
|
|
|
|
create virtual cpus (vcpus).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only run VM ioctls from the same process (address space) that was used
|
|
|
|
|
to create the VM.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- vcpu ioctls: These query and set attributes that control the operation
|
|
|
|
|
of a single virtual cpu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only run vcpu ioctls from the same thread that was used to create the
|
|
|
|
|
vcpu.

2. File descriptors
|
2012-04-24 14:40:15 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The kvm API is centered around file descriptors. An initial
|
|
|
|
|
open("/dev/kvm") obtains a handle to the kvm subsystem; this handle
|
|
|
|
|
can be used to issue system ioctls. A KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl on this
|
2009-12-24 01:04:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
handle will create a VM file descriptor which can be used to issue VM
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
ioctls. A KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl on a VM fd will create a virtual cpu
|
|
|
|
|
and return a file descriptor pointing to it. Finally, ioctls on a vcpu
|
|
|
|
|
fd can be used to control the vcpu, including the important task of
|
|
|
|
|
actually running guest code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In general file descriptors can be migrated among processes by means
|
|
|
|
|
of fork() and the SCM_RIGHTS facility of unix domain socket. These
|
|
|
|
|
kinds of tricks are explicitly not supported by kvm. While they will
|
|
|
|
|
not cause harm to the host, their actual behavior is not guaranteed by
|
|
|
|
|
the API. The only supported use is one virtual machine per process,
|
|
|
|
|
and one vcpu per thread.

3. Extensions

|
-------------
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of Linux 2.6.22, the KVM ABI has been stabilized: no backward
|
|
|
|
|
incompatible change are allowed. However, there is an extension
|
|
|
|
|
facility that allows backward-compatible extensions to the API to be
|
|
|
|
|
queried and used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-07-17 16:29:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The extension mechanism is not based on the Linux version number.
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Instead, kvm defines extension identifiers and a facility to query
|
|
|
|
|
whether a particular extension identifier is available. If it is, a
|
|
|
|
|
set of ioctls is available for application use.

For each ioctl, the following information is provided along with a
|
|
|
|
|
description:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: which KVM extension provides this ioctl. Can be 'basic',
|
|
|
|
|
which means that is will be provided by any kernel that supports
|
|
|
|
|
API version 12 (see section 4.1), or a KVM_CAP_xyz constant, which
|
|
|
|
|
means availability needs to be checked with KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
|
|
|
|
|
(see section 4.4).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: which instruction set architectures provide this ioctl.
|
|
|
|
|
x86 includes both i386 and x86_64.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: system, vm, or vcpu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: what parameters are accepted by the ioctl.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: the return value. General error numbers (EBADF, ENOMEM, EINVAL)
|
|
|
|
|
are not detailed, but errors with specific meanings are.

4.1 KVM_GET_API_VERSION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: basic
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: all
|
|
|
|
|
Type: system ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: none
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: the constant KVM_API_VERSION (=12)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This identifies the API version as the stable kvm API. It is not
|
|
|
|
|
expected that this number will change. However, Linux 2.6.20 and
|
|
|
|
|
2.6.21 report earlier versions; these are not documented and not
|
|
|
|
|
supported. Applications should refuse to run if KVM_GET_API_VERSION
|
|
|
|
|
returns a value other than 12. If this check passes, all ioctls
|
|
|
|
|
described as 'basic' will be available.

4.2 KVM_CREATE_VM
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: basic
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: all
|
|
|
|
|
Type: system ioctl
|
2012-01-04 09:25:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Parameters: machine type identifier (KVM_VM_*)
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Returns: a VM fd that can be used to control the new virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new VM has no virtual cpus and no memory. An mmap() of a VM fd
|
|
|
|
|
will access the virtual machine's physical address space; offset zero
|
|
|
|
|
corresponds to guest physical address zero. Use of mmap() on a VM fd
|
|
|
|
|
is discouraged if userspace memory allocation (KVM_CAP_USER_MEMORY) is
|
|
|
|
|
available.
|
2012-01-04 09:25:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
You most certainly want to use 0 as machine type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to create user controlled virtual machines on S390, check
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_CAP_S390_UCONTROL and use the flag KVM_VM_S390_UCONTROL as
|
|
|
|
|
privileged user (CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

4.3 KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: basic
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: x86
|
|
|
|
|
Type: system
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: struct kvm_msr_list (in/out)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
Errors:
|
|
|
|
|
E2BIG: the msr index list is to be to fit in the array specified by
|
|
|
|
|
the user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_msr_list {
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 nmsrs; /* number of msrs in entries */
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 indices[0];
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This ioctl returns the guest msrs that are supported. The list varies
|
|
|
|
|
by kvm version and host processor, but does not change otherwise. The
|
|
|
|
|
user fills in the size of the indices array in nmsrs, and in return
|
|
|
|
|
kvm adjusts nmsrs to reflect the actual number of msrs and fills in
|
|
|
|
|
the indices array with their numbers.
|
|
|

|
|
2010-07-07 11:09:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Note: if kvm indicates supports MCE (KVM_CAP_MCE), then the MCE bank MSRs are
|
|
|
|
|
not returned in the MSR list, as different vcpus can have a different number
|
|
|
|
|
of banks, as set via the KVM_X86_SETUP_MCE ioctl.

4.4 KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: basic
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: all
|
|
|
|
|
Type: system ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: extension identifier (KVM_CAP_*)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 if unsupported; 1 (or some other positive integer) if supported
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The API allows the application to query about extensions to the core
|
|
|
|
|
kvm API. Userspace passes an extension identifier (an integer) and
|
|
|
|
|
receives an integer that describes the extension availability.
|
|
|
|
|
Generally 0 means no and 1 means yes, but some extensions may report
|
|
|
|
|
additional information in the integer return value.

4.7 KVM_CREATE_VCPU
|
2009-06-09 09:37:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: basic
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: all
|
|
|
|
|
Type: vm ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: vcpu id (apic id on x86)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: vcpu fd on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This API adds a vcpu to a virtual machine. The vcpu id is a small integer
|
2011-07-18 14:17:15 +00:00
|
|
|
|
in the range [0, max_vcpus).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The recommended max_vcpus value can be retrieved using the KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS of
|
|
|
|
|
the KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl() at run-time.
|
|
|
|
|
The maximum possible value for max_vcpus can be retrieved using the
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS of the KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl() at run-time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2011-05-09 19:48:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If the KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS does not exist, you should assume that max_vcpus is 4
|
|
|
|
|
cpus max.
|
2011-07-18 14:17:15 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If the KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS does not exist, you should assume that max_vcpus is
|
|
|
|
|
same as the value returned from KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS.

KVM: PPC: Allow book3s_hv guests to use SMT processor modes
This lifts the restriction that book3s_hv guests can only run one
hardware thread per core, and allows them to use up to 4 threads
per core on POWER7. The host still has to run single-threaded.
This capability is advertised to qemu through a new KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT
capability. The return value of the ioctl querying this capability
is the number of vcpus per virtual CPU core (vcore), currently 4.
To use this, the host kernel should be booted with all threads
active, and then all the secondary threads should be offlined.
This will put the secondary threads into nap mode. KVM will then
wake them from nap mode and use them for running guest code (while
they are still offline). To wake the secondary threads, we send
them an IPI using a new xics_wake_cpu() function, implemented in
arch/powerpc/sysdev/xics/icp-native.c. In other words, at this stage
we assume that the platform has a XICS interrupt controller and
we are using icp-native.c to drive it. Since the woken thread will
need to acknowledge and clear the IPI, we also export the base
physical address of the XICS registers using kvmppc_set_xics_phys()
for use in the low-level KVM book3s code.
When a vcpu is created, it is assigned to a virtual CPU core.
The vcore number is obtained by dividing the vcpu number by the
number of threads per core in the host. This number is exported
to userspace via the KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability. If qemu wishes
to run the guest in single-threaded mode, it should make all vcpu
numbers be multiples of the number of threads per core.
We distinguish three states of a vcpu: runnable (i.e., ready to execute
the guest), blocked (that is, idle), and busy in host. We currently
implement a policy that the vcore can run only when all its threads
are runnable or blocked. This way, if a vcpu needs to execute elsewhere
in the kernel or in qemu, it can do so without being starved of CPU
by the other vcpus.
When a vcore starts to run, it executes in the context of one of the
vcpu threads. The other vcpu threads all go to sleep and stay asleep
until something happens requiring the vcpu thread to return to qemu,
or to wake up to run the vcore (this can happen when another vcpu
thread goes from busy in host state to blocked).
It can happen that a vcpu goes from blocked to runnable state (e.g.
because of an interrupt), and the vcore it belongs to is already
running. In that case it can start to run immediately as long as
the none of the vcpus in the vcore have started to exit the guest.
We send the next free thread in the vcore an IPI to get it to start
to execute the guest. It synchronizes with the other threads via
the vcore->entry_exit_count field to make sure that it doesn't go
into the guest if the other vcpus are exiting by the time that it
is ready to actually enter the guest.
Note that there is no fixed relationship between the hardware thread
number and the vcpu number. Hardware threads are assigned to vcpus
as they become runnable, so we will always use the lower-numbered
hardware threads in preference to higher-numbered threads if not all
the vcpus in the vcore are runnable, regardless of which vcpus are
runnable.

On powerpc using book3s_hv mode, the vcpus are mapped onto virtual
|
|
|
|
|
threads in one or more virtual CPU cores. (This is because the
|
|
|
|
|
hardware requires all the hardware threads in a CPU core to be in the
|
|
|
|
|
same partition.) The KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT capability indicates the number
|
2011-08-29 13:27:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
of vcpus per virtual core (vcore). The vcore id is obtained by
|
|
|
|
|
dividing the vcpu id by the number of vcpus per vcore. The vcpus in a
|
|
|
|
|
given vcore will always be in the same physical core as each other
|
|
|
|
|
(though that might be a different physical core from time to time).
|
|
|
|
|
Userspace can control the threading (SMT) mode of the guest by its
|
|
|
|
|
allocation of vcpu ids. For example, if userspace wants
|
|
|
|
|
single-threaded guest vcpus, it should make all vcpu ids be a multiple
|
|
|
|
|
of the number of vcpus per vcore.

|
For virtual cpus that have been created with S390 user controlled virtual
|
|
|
|
|
machines, the resulting vcpu fd can be memory mapped at page offset
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_S390_SIE_PAGE_OFFSET in order to obtain a memory map of the virtual
|
|
|
|
|
cpu's hardware control block.

This ioctl is used to run a guest virtual cpu. While there are no
|
|
|
|
|
explicit parameters, there is an implicit parameter block that can be
|
|
|
|
|
obtained by mmap()ing the vcpu fd at offset 0, with the size given by
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_GET_VCPU_MMAP_SIZE. The parameter block is formatted as a 'struct
|
|

Queues an external interrupt to be injected. This ioctl is overleaded
|
|
|
|
|
with 3 different irq values:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) KVM_INTERRUPT_SET
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This injects an edge type external interrupt into the guest once it's ready
|
|
|
|
|
to receive interrupts. When injected, the interrupt is done.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) KVM_INTERRUPT_UNSET
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This unsets any pending interrupt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only available with KVM_CAP_PPC_UNSET_IRQ.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c) KVM_INTERRUPT_SET_LEVEL
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This injects a level type external interrupt into the guest context. The
|
|
|
|
|
interrupt stays pending until a specific ioctl with KVM_INTERRUPT_UNSET
|
|
|
|
|
is triggered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only available with KVM_CAP_PPC_IRQ_LEVEL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that any value for 'irq' other than the ones stated above is invalid
|
|
|
|
|
and incurs unexpected behavior.

Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creates an interrupt controller model in the kernel. On x86, creates a virtual
|
|
|
|
|
ioapic, a virtual PIC (two PICs, nested), and sets up future vcpus to have a
|
|
|
|
|
local APIC. IRQ routing for GSIs 0-15 is set to both PIC and IOAPIC; GSI 16-23
|
2013-04-02 16:46:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
only go to the IOAPIC. On ia64, a IOSAPIC is created. On ARM/arm64, a GIC is
|
2013-01-20 23:28:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
created.

|
Type: vm ioctl
|

Parameters: struct kvm_irq_level
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sets the level of a GSI input to the interrupt controller model in the kernel.
|
2013-01-20 23:28:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
On some architectures it is required that an interrupt controller model has
|
|
|
|
|
been previously created with KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP. Note that edge-triggered
|
|
|
|
|
interrupts require the level to be set to 1 and then back to 0.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-04-02 16:46:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
ARM/arm64 can signal an interrupt either at the CPU level, or at the
|
|
|
|
|
in-kernel irqchip (GIC), and for in-kernel irqchip can tell the GIC to
|
|
|
|
|
use PPIs designated for specific cpus. The irq field is interpreted
|
|
|
|
|
like this:
|
2013-01-20 23:28:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bits: | 31 ... 24 | 23 ... 16 | 15 ... 0 |
|
|
|
|
|
field: | irq_type | vcpu_index | irq_id |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The irq_type field has the following values:
|
|
|
|
|
- irq_type[0]: out-of-kernel GIC: irq_id 0 is IRQ, irq_id 1 is FIQ
|
|
|
|
|
- irq_type[1]: in-kernel GIC: SPI, irq_id between 32 and 1019 (incl.)
|
|
|
|
|
(the vcpu_index field is ignored)
|
|
|
|
|
- irq_type[2]: in-kernel GIC: PPI, irq_id between 16 and 31 (incl.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(The irq_id field thus corresponds nicely to the IRQ ID in the ARM GIC specs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In both cases, level is used to raise/lower the line.

|
|
|
This ioctl allows the user to create or modify a guest physical memory
|
|
|
|
|
slot. When changing an existing slot, it may be moved in the guest
|
|
|
|
|
physical memory space, or its flags may be modified. It may not be
|
|
|
|
|
resized. Slots may not overlap in guest physical address space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Memory for the region is taken starting at the address denoted by the
|
|
|
|
|
field userspace_addr, which must point at user addressable memory for
|
|
|
|
|
the entire memory slot size. Any object may back this memory, including
|
|
|
|
|
anonymous memory, ordinary files, and hugetlbfs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that the lower 21 bits of guest_phys_addr and userspace_addr
|
|
|
|
|
be identical. This allows large pages in the guest to be backed by large
|
|
|
|
|
pages in the host.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-01-30 10:40:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The flags field supports two flags: KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES and
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_MEM_READONLY. The former can be set to instruct KVM to keep track of
|
|
|
|
|
writes to memory within the slot. See KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl to know how to
|
|
|
|
|
use it. The latter can be set, if KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM capability allows it,
|
|
|
|
|
to make a new slot read-only. In this case, writes to this memory will be
|
|
|
|
|
posted to userspace as KVM_EXIT_MMIO exits.
|
2012-09-07 11:17:47 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the KVM_CAP_SYNC_MMU capability is available, changes in the backing of
|
|
|
|
|
the memory region are automatically reflected into the guest. For example, an
|
|
|
|
|
mmap() that affects the region will be made visible immediately. Another
|
|
|
|
|
example is madvise(MADV_DROP).
|
2010-03-25 10:16:48 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to use this API instead of the KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl.
|
|
|
|
|
The KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION does not allow fine grained control over memory
|
|
|
|
|
allocation and is deprecated.

This ioctl defines the physical address of a three-page region in the guest
|
|
|
|
|
physical address space. The region must be within the first 4GB of the
|
|
|
|
|
guest physical address space and must not conflict with any memory slot
|
|
|
|
|
or any mmio address. The guest may malfunction if it accesses this memory
|
|
|
|
|
region.

This ioctl returns x86 cpuid features which are supported by both the hardware
|
|
|
|
|
and kvm. Userspace can use the information returned by this ioctl to
|
|
|
|
|
construct cpuid information (for KVM_SET_CPUID2) that is consistent with
|
|
|
|
|
hardware, kernel, and userspace capabilities, and with user requirements (for
|
|
|
|
|
example, the user may wish to constrain cpuid to emulate older hardware,
|
|
|
|
|
or for feature consistency across a cluster).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Userspace invokes KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID by passing a kvm_cpuid2 structure
|
|
|
|
|
with the 'nent' field indicating the number of entries in the variable-size
|
|
|
|
|
array 'entries'. If the number of entries is too low to describe the cpu
|
|
|
|
|
capabilities, an error (E2BIG) is returned. If the number is too high,
|
|
|
|
|
the 'nent' field is adjusted and an error (ENOMEM) is returned. If the
|
|
|
|
|
number is just right, the 'nent' field is adjusted to the number of valid
|
|
|
|
|
entries in the 'entries' array, which is then filled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The entries returned are the host cpuid as returned by the cpuid instruction,
|
2010-09-12 14:39:11 +00:00
|
|
|
|
with unknown or unsupported features masked out. Some features (for example,
|
|
|
|
|
x2apic), may not be present in the host cpu, but are exposed by kvm if it can
|
|
|
|
|
emulate them efficiently. The fields in each entry are defined as follows:
|
2010-07-14 06:45:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
function: the eax value used to obtain the entry
|
|
|
|
|
index: the ecx value used to obtain the entry (for entries that are
|
|
|
|
|
affected by ecx)
|
|
|
|
|
flags: an OR of zero or more of the following:
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_CPUID_FLAG_SIGNIFCANT_INDEX:
|
|
|
|
|
if the index field is valid
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATEFUL_FUNC:
|
|
|
|
|
if cpuid for this function returns different values for successive
|
|
|
|
|
invocations; there will be several entries with the same function,
|
|
|
|
|
all with this flag set
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATE_READ_NEXT:
|
|
|
|
|
for KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATEFUL_FUNC entries, set if this entry is
|
|
|
|
|
the first entry to be read by a cpu
|
|
|
|
|
eax, ebx, ecx, edx: the values returned by the cpuid instruction for
|
|
|
|
|
this function/index combination
|
|
|
|
|
|
2011-12-21 11:28:29 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The TSC deadline timer feature (CPUID leaf 1, ecx[24]) is always returned
|
|
|
|
|
as false, since the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP for local APIC
|
|
|
|
|
support. Instead it is reported via
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION, KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if that returns true and you use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, or if you emulate the
|
|
|
|
|
feature in userspace, then you can enable the feature for KVM_SET_CPUID2.

|
|
|
|
|
|
The PCI device is specified by the triple segnr, busnr, and devfn.
|
|
|
|
|
Identification in succeeding service requests is done via assigned_dev_id. The
|
|
|
|
|
following flags are specified:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* Depends on KVM_CAP_IOMMU */
|
|
|
|
|
#define KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_ENABLE_IOMMU (1 << 0)
|
2012-02-28 13:19:54 +00:00
|
|
|

/* The following two depend on KVM_CAP_PCI_2_3 */
|
|

|
|
#define KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_PCI_2_3 (1 << 1)
|
|
|
|
|
#define KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_MASK_INTX (1 << 2)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_PCI_2_3 is set, the kernel will manage legacy INTx interrupts
|
|
|
|
|
via the PCI-2.3-compliant device-level mask, thus enable IRQ sharing with other
|
|
|
|
|
assigned devices or host devices. KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_MASK_INTX specifies the
|
|
|
|
|
guest's view on the INTx mask, see KVM_ASSIGN_SET_INTX_MASK for details.
|

|
|
|
|
|
2011-12-21 04:59:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_ENABLE_IOMMU flag is a mandatory option to ensure
|
|
|
|
|
isolation of the device. Usages not specifying this flag are deprecated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2011-12-21 04:59:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Only PCI header type 0 devices with PCI BAR resources are supported by
|
|
|
|
|
device assignment. The user requesting this ioctl must have read/write
|
|
|
|
|
access to the PCI sysfs resource files associated with the device.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This ioctl attaches or detaches an ioeventfd to a legal pio/mmio address

__u32 num_dirty;

};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This must be called whenever userspace has changed an entry in the shared
|
|
|
|
|
TLB, prior to calling KVM_RUN on the associated vcpu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "bitmap" field is the userspace address of an array. This array
|
|
|
|
|
consists of a number of bits, equal to the total number of TLB entries as
|
|
|
|
|
determined by the last successful call to KVM_CONFIG_TLB, rounded up to the
|
|
|
|
|
nearest multiple of 64.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each bit corresponds to one TLB entry, ordered the same as in the shared TLB
|
|
|
|
|
array.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The array is little-endian: the bit 0 is the least significant bit of the
|
|
|
|
|
first byte, bit 8 is the least significant bit of the second byte, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
This avoids any complications with differing word sizes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "num_dirty" field is a performance hint for KVM to determine whether it
|
|
|
|
|
should skip processing the bitmap and just invalidate everything. It must
|
|
|
|
|
be set to the number of set bits in the bitmap.

|

Parameters: struct kvm_assigned_pci_dev (in)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allows userspace to mask PCI INTx interrupts from the assigned device. The
|
|
|
|
|
kernel will not deliver INTx interrupts to the guest between setting and
|
|
|
|
|
clearing of KVM_ASSIGN_SET_INTX_MASK via this interface. This enables use of
|
|
|
|
|
and emulation of PCI 2.3 INTx disable command register behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This may be used for both PCI 2.3 devices supporting INTx disable natively and
|
|
|
|
|
older devices lacking this support. Userspace is responsible for emulating the
|
|
|
|
|
read value of the INTx disable bit in the guest visible PCI command register.
|
|
|
|
|
When modifying the INTx disable state, userspace should precede updating the
|
|
|
|
|
physical device command register by calling this ioctl to inform the kernel of
|
|
|
|
|
the new intended INTx mask state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the kernel uses the device INTx disable bit to internally manage the
|
|
|
|
|
device interrupt state for PCI 2.3 devices. Reads of this register may
|
|
|
|
|
therefore not match the expected value. Writes should always use the guest
|
|
|
|
|
intended INTx disable value rather than attempting to read-copy-update the
|
|
|
|
|
current physical device state. Races between user and kernel updates to the
|
|
|
|
|
INTx disable bit are handled lazily in the kernel. It's possible the device
|
|
|
|
|
may generate unintended interrupts, but they will not be injected into the
|
|
|
|
|
guest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ for the data structure. The target device is specified
|
|
|
|
|
by assigned_dev_id. In the flags field, only KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_MASK_INTX is
|
|
|
|
|
evaluated.

Parameters: struct kvm_create_spapr_tce (in)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: file descriptor for manipulating the created TCE table
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This creates a virtual TCE (translation control entry) table, which
|
|
|
|
|
is an IOMMU for PAPR-style virtual I/O. It is used to translate
|
|
|
|
|
logical addresses used in virtual I/O into guest physical addresses,
|
|
|
|
|
and provides a scatter/gather capability for PAPR virtual I/O.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* for KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE */
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_create_spapr_tce {
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 liobn;
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 window_size;
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The liobn field gives the logical IO bus number for which to create a
|
|
|
|
|
TCE table. The window_size field specifies the size of the DMA window
|
|
|
|
|
which this TCE table will translate - the table will contain one 64
|
|
|
|
|
bit TCE entry for every 4kiB of the DMA window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the guest issues an H_PUT_TCE hcall on a liobn for which a TCE
|
|
|
|
|
table has been created using this ioctl(), the kernel will handle it
|
|
|
|
|
in real mode, updating the TCE table. H_PUT_TCE calls for other
|
|
|
|
|
liobns will cause a vm exit and must be handled by userspace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The return value is a file descriptor which can be passed to mmap(2)
|
|
|
|
|
to map the created TCE table into userspace. This lets userspace read
|
|
|
|
|
the entries written by kernel-handled H_PUT_TCE calls, and also lets
|
|
|
|
|
userspace update the TCE table directly which is useful in some
|
|
|
|
|
circumstances.

KVM: PPC: Allocate RMAs (Real Mode Areas) at boot for use by guests
This adds infrastructure which will be needed to allow book3s_hv KVM to
run on older POWER processors, including PPC970, which don't support
the Virtual Real Mode Area (VRMA) facility, but only the Real Mode
Offset (RMO) facility. These processors require a physically
contiguous, aligned area of memory for each guest. When the guest does
an access in real mode (MMU off), the address is compared against a
limit value, and if it is lower, the address is ORed with an offset
value (from the Real Mode Offset Register (RMOR)) and the result becomes
the real address for the access. The size of the RMA has to be one of
a set of supported values, which usually includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB
and some larger powers of 2.
Since we are unlikely to be able to allocate 64MB or more of physically
contiguous memory after the kernel has been running for a while, we
allocate a pool of RMAs at boot time using the bootmem allocator. The
size and number of the RMAs can be set using the kvm_rma_size=xx and
kvm_rma_count=xx kernel command line options.
KVM exports a new capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA, to signal the availability
of the pool of preallocated RMAs. The capability value is 1 if the
processor can use an RMA but doesn't require one (because it supports
the VRMA facility), or 2 if the processor requires an RMA for each guest.
This adds a new ioctl, KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA, which allocates an RMA from the
pool and returns a file descriptor which can be used to map the RMA. It
also returns the size of the RMA in the argument structure.
Having an RMA means we will get multiple KMV_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
ioctl calls from userspace. To cope with this, we now preallocate the
kvm->arch.ram_pginfo array when the VM is created with a size sufficient
for up to 64GB of guest memory. Subsequently we will get rid of this
array and use memory associated with each memslot instead.
This moves most of the code that translates the user addresses into
host pfns (page frame numbers) out of kvmppc_prepare_vrma up one level
to kvmppc_core_prepare_memory_region. Also, instead of having to look
up the VMA for each page in order to check the page size, we now check
that the pages we get are compound pages of 16MB. However, if we are
adding memory that is mapped to an RMA, we don't bother with calling
get_user_pages_fast and instead just offset from the base pfn for the
RMA.
Typically the RMA gets added after vcpus are created, which makes it
inconvenient to have the LPCR (logical partition control register) value
in the vcpu->arch struct, since the LPCR controls whether the processor
uses RMA or VRMA for the guest. This moves the LPCR value into the
kvm->arch struct and arranges for the MER (mediated external request)
bit, which is the only bit that varies between vcpus, to be set in
assembly code when going into the guest if there is a pending external
interrupt request.

Returns: file descriptor for mapping the allocated RMA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This allocates a Real Mode Area (RMA) from the pool allocated at boot
|
|
|
|
|
time by the kernel. An RMA is a physically-contiguous, aligned region
|
|
|
|
|
of memory used on older POWER processors to provide the memory which
|
|
|
|
|
will be accessed by real-mode (MMU off) accesses in a KVM guest.
|
|
|
|
|
POWER processors support a set of sizes for the RMA that usually
|
|
|
|
|
includes 64MB, 128MB, 256MB and some larger powers of two.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* for KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA */
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_allocate_rma {
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 rma_size;
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The return value is a file descriptor which can be passed to mmap(2)
|
|
|
|
|
to map the allocated RMA into userspace. The mapped area can then be
|
|
|
|
|
passed to the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION ioctl to establish it as the
|
|
|
|
|
RMA for a virtual machine. The size of the RMA in bytes (which is
|
|
|
|
|
fixed at host kernel boot time) is returned in the rma_size field of
|
|
|
|
|
the argument structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The KVM_CAP_PPC_RMA capability is 1 or 2 if the KVM_ALLOCATE_RMA ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
is supported; 2 if the processor requires all virtual machines to have
|
|
|
|
|
an RMA, or 1 if the processor can use an RMA but doesn't require it,
|
|
|
|
|
because it supports the Virtual RMA (VRMA) facility.

4.64 KVM_NMI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: KVM_CAP_USER_NMI
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: x86
|
|
|
|
|
Type: vcpu ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: none
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Queues an NMI on the thread's vcpu. Note this is well defined only
|
|
|
|
|
when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP has not been called, since this is an interface
|
|
|
|
|
between the virtual cpu core and virtual local APIC. After KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP
|
|
|
|
|
has been called, this interface is completely emulated within the kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use this to emulate the LINT1 input with KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, use the
|
|
|
|
|
following algorithm:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- pause the vpcu
|
|
|
|
|
- read the local APIC's state (KVM_GET_LAPIC)
|
|
|
|
|
- check whether changing LINT1 will queue an NMI (see the LVT entry for LINT1)
|
|
|
|
|
- if so, issue KVM_NMI
|
|
|
|
|
- resume the vcpu
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some guests configure the LINT1 NMI input to cause a panic, aiding in
|
|
|
|
|
debugging.

This call creates a page table entry on the virtual cpu's address space
|
|
|
|
|
(for user controlled virtual machines) or the virtual machine's address
|
|
|
|
|
space (for regular virtual machines). This only works for minor faults,
|
|
|
|
|
thus it's recommended to access subject memory page via the user page
|
|
|
|
|
table upfront. This is useful to handle validity intercepts for user
|
|
|
|
|
controlled virtual machines to fault in the virtual cpu's lowcore pages
|
|
|
|
|
prior to calling the KVM_RUN ioctl.

Using this ioctl, a single vcpu register can be set to a specific value
|
|
|
|
|
defined by user space with the passed in struct kvm_one_reg, where id
|
|
|
|
|
refers to the register identifier as described below and addr is a pointer
|
|
|
|
|
to a variable with the respective size. There can be architecture agnostic
|
|
|
|
|
and architecture specific registers. Each have their own range of operation
|
|
|
|
|
and their own constants and width. To keep track of the implemented
|
|
|

4.70 KVM_KVMCLOCK_CTRL
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: KVM_CAP_KVMCLOCK_CTRL
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: Any that implement pvclocks (currently x86 only)
|
|
|
|
|
Type: vcpu ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: None
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This signals to the host kernel that the specified guest is being paused by
|
|
|
|
|
userspace. The host will set a flag in the pvclock structure that is checked
|
|
|
|
|
from the soft lockup watchdog. The flag is part of the pvclock structure that
|
|
|
|
|
is shared between guest and host, specifically the second bit of the flags
|
|
|
|
|
field of the pvclock_vcpu_time_info structure. It will be set exclusively by
|
|
|
|
|
the host and read/cleared exclusively by the guest. The guest operation of
|
|
|
|
|
checking and clearing the flag must an atomic operation so
|
|
|
|
|
load-link/store-conditional, or equivalent must be used. There are two cases
|
|
|
|
|
where the guest will clear the flag: when the soft lockup watchdog timer resets
|
|
|
|
|
itself or when a soft lockup is detected. This ioctl can be called any time
|
|
|
|
|
after pausing the vcpu, but before it is resumed.

This populates and returns a structure describing the features of
|
|
|
|
|
the "Server" class MMU emulation supported by KVM.
|
2013-06-05 10:24:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
This can in turn be used by userspace to generate the appropriate
|
2012-04-26 19:43:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
device-tree properties for the guest operating system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The structure contains some global informations, followed by an
|
|
|
|
|
array of supported segment page sizes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_ppc_smmu_info {
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 flags;
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 slb_size;
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 pad;
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_ppc_one_seg_page_size sps[KVM_PPC_PAGE_SIZES_MAX_SZ];
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The supported flags are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- KVM_PPC_PAGE_SIZES_REAL:
|
|
|
|
|
When that flag is set, guest page sizes must "fit" the backing
|
|
|
|
|
store page sizes. When not set, any page size in the list can
|
|
|
|
|
be used regardless of how they are backed by userspace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- KVM_PPC_1T_SEGMENTS
|
|
|
|
|
The emulated MMU supports 1T segments in addition to the
|
|
|
|
|
standard 256M ones.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "slb_size" field indicates how many SLB entries are supported
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "sps" array contains 8 entries indicating the supported base
|
|
|
|
|
page sizes for a segment in increasing order. Each entry is defined
|
|
|
|
|
as follow:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_ppc_one_seg_page_size {
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 page_shift; /* Base page shift of segment (or 0) */
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 slb_enc; /* SLB encoding for BookS */
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_ppc_one_page_size enc[KVM_PPC_PAGE_SIZES_MAX_SZ];
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An entry with a "page_shift" of 0 is unused. Because the array is
|
|
|
|
|
organized in increasing order, a lookup can stop when encoutering
|
|
|
|
|
such an entry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "slb_enc" field provides the encoding to use in the SLB for the
|
|
|
|
|
page size. The bits are in positions such as the value can directly
|
|
|
|
|
be OR'ed into the "vsid" argument of the slbmte instruction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "enc" array is a list which for each of those segment base page
|
|
|
|
|
size provides the list of supported actual page sizes (which can be
|
|
|
|
|
only larger or equal to the base page size), along with the
|
2013-05-08 23:56:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
corresponding encoding in the hash PTE. Similarly, the array is
|
2012-04-26 19:43:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
8 entries sorted by increasing sizes and an entry with a "0" shift
|
|
|
|
|
is an empty entry and a terminator:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_ppc_one_page_size {
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 page_shift; /* Page shift (or 0) */
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 pte_enc; /* Encoding in the HPTE (>>12) */
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "pte_enc" field provides a value that can OR'ed into the hash
|
|
|
|
|
PTE's RPN field (ie, it needs to be shifted left by 12 to OR it
|
|
|
|
|
into the hash PTE second double word).

4.75 KVM_IRQFD
|

|
|
Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQFD
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: x86
|
|
|
|
|
Type: vm ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: struct kvm_irqfd (in)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allows setting an eventfd to directly trigger a guest interrupt.
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_irqfd.fd specifies the file descriptor to use as the eventfd and
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_irqfd.gsi specifies the irqchip pin toggled by this event. When
|
|
|
|
|
an event is tiggered on the eventfd, an interrupt is injected into
|
|
|
|
|
the guest using the specified gsi pin. The irqfd is removed using
|
|
|
|
|
the KVM_IRQFD_FLAG_DEASSIGN flag, specifying both kvm_irqfd.fd
|
|
|
|
|
and kvm_irqfd.gsi.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2012-09-21 17:58:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
With KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE, KVM_IRQFD supports a de-assert and notify
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism allowing emulation of level-triggered, irqfd-based
|
|
|
|
|
interrupts. When KVM_IRQFD_FLAG_RESAMPLE is set the user must pass an
|
|
|
|
|
additional eventfd in the kvm_irqfd.resamplefd field. When operating
|
|
|
|
|
in resample mode, posting of an interrupt through kvm_irq.fd asserts
|
|
|
|
|
the specified gsi in the irqchip. When the irqchip is resampled, such
|
|
|
|
|
as from an EOI, the gsi is de-asserted and the user is notifed via
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_irqfd.resamplefd. It is the user's responsibility to re-queue
|
|
|
|
|
the interrupt if the device making use of it still requires service.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that closing the resamplefd is not sufficient to disable the
|
|
|
|
|
irqfd. The KVM_IRQFD_FLAG_RESAMPLE is only necessary on assignment
|
|
|
|
|
and need not be specified with KVM_IRQFD_FLAG_DEASSIGN.

4.76 KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB
|
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make the guest hash table size configurable
This adds a new ioctl to enable userspace to control the size of the guest
hashed page table (HPT) and to clear it out when resetting the guest.
The KVM_PPC_ALLOCATE_HTAB ioctl is a VM ioctl and takes as its parameter
a pointer to a u32 containing the desired order of the HPT (log base 2
of the size in bytes), which is updated on successful return to the
actual order of the HPT which was allocated.
There must be no vcpus running at the time of this ioctl. To enforce
this, we now keep a count of the number of vcpus running in
kvm->arch.vcpus_running.
If the ioctl is called when a HPT has already been allocated, we don't
reallocate the HPT but just clear it out. We first clear the
kvm->arch.rma_setup_done flag, which has two effects: (a) since we hold
the kvm->lock mutex, it will prevent any vcpus from starting to run until
we're done, and (b) it means that the first vcpu to run after we're done
will re-establish the VRMA if necessary.
If userspace doesn't call this ioctl before running the first vcpu, the
kernel will allocate a default-sized HPT at that point. We do it then
rather than when creating the VM, as the code did previously, so that
userspace has a chance to do the ioctl if it wants.
When allocating the HPT, we can allocate either from the kernel page
allocator, or from the preallocated pool. If userspace is asking for
a different size from the preallocated HPTs, we first try to allocate
using the kernel page allocator. Then we try to allocate from the
preallocated pool, and then if that fails, we try allocating decreasing
sizes from the kernel page allocator, down to the minimum size allowed
(256kB). Note that the kernel page allocator limits allocations to
1 << CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER pages, which by default corresponds to
16MB (on 64-bit powerpc, at least).

This requests the host kernel to allocate an MMU hash table for a
|
|
|
|
|
guest using the PAPR paravirtualization interface. This only does
|
|
|
|
|
anything if the kernel is configured to use the Book 3S HV style of
|
|
|
|
|
virtualization. Otherwise the capability doesn't exist and the ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
returns an ENOTTY error. The rest of this description assumes Book 3S
|
|
|
|
|
HV.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There must be no vcpus running when this ioctl is called; if there
|
|
|
|
|
are, it will do nothing and return an EBUSY error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The parameter is a pointer to a 32-bit unsigned integer variable
|
|
|
|
|
containing the order (log base 2) of the desired size of the hash
|
|
|
|
|
table, which must be between 18 and 46. On successful return from the
|
|
|
|
|
ioctl, it will have been updated with the order of the hash table that
|
|
|
|
|
was allocated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If no hash table has been allocated when any vcpu is asked to run
|
|
|
|
|
(with the KVM_RUN ioctl), the host kernel will allocate a
|
|
|
|
|
default-sized hash table (16 MB).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this ioctl is called when a hash table has already been allocated,
|
|
|
|
|
the kernel will clear out the existing hash table (zero all HPTEs) and
|
|
|
|
|
return the hash table order in the parameter. (If the guest is using
|
|
|
|
|
the virtualized real-mode area (VRMA) facility, the kernel will
|
|
|
|
|
re-create the VMRA HPTEs on the next KVM_RUN of any vcpu.)

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Provide a method for userspace to read and write the HPT
A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD, returns a file descriptor. Reads on
this fd return the contents of the HPT (hashed page table), writes
create and/or remove entries in the HPT. There is a new capability,
KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD, to indicate the presence of the ioctl. The ioctl
takes an argument structure with the index of the first HPT entry to
read out and a set of flags. The flags indicate whether the user is
intending to read or write the HPT, and whether to return all entries
or only the "bolted" entries (those with the bolted bit, 0x10, set in
the first doubleword).
This is intended for use in implementing qemu's savevm/loadvm and for
live migration. Therefore, on reads, the first pass returns information
about all HPTEs (or all bolted HPTEs). When the first pass reaches the
end of the HPT, it returns from the read. Subsequent reads only return
information about HPTEs that have changed since they were last read.
A read that finds no changed HPTEs in the HPT following where the last
read finished will return 0 bytes.
The format of the data provides a simple run-length compression of the
invalid entries. Each block of data starts with a header that indicates
the index (position in the HPT, which is just an array), the number of
valid entries starting at that index (may be zero), and the number of
invalid entries following those valid entries. The valid entries, 16
bytes each, follow the header. The invalid entries are not explicitly
represented.

4.78 KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Capability: KVM_CAP_PPC_HTAB_FD
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: powerpc
|
|
|
|
|
Type: vm ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: Pointer to struct kvm_get_htab_fd (in)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: file descriptor number (>= 0) on success, -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This returns a file descriptor that can be used either to read out the
|
|
|
|
|
entries in the guest's hashed page table (HPT), or to write entries to
|
|
|
|
|
initialize the HPT. The returned fd can only be written to if the
|
|
|
|
|
KVM_GET_HTAB_WRITE bit is set in the flags field of the argument, and
|
|
|
|
|
can only be read if that bit is clear. The argument struct looks like
|
|
|
|
|
this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* For KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD */
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_get_htab_fd {
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 flags;
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 start_index;
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 reserved[2];
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* Values for kvm_get_htab_fd.flags */
|
|
|
|
|
#define KVM_GET_HTAB_BOLTED_ONLY ((__u64)0x1)
|
|
|
|
|
#define KVM_GET_HTAB_WRITE ((__u64)0x2)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `start_index' field gives the index in the HPT of the entry at
|
|
|
|
|
which to start reading. It is ignored when writing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reads on the fd will initially supply information about all
|
|
|
|
|
"interesting" HPT entries. Interesting entries are those with the
|
|
|
|
|
bolted bit set, if the KVM_GET_HTAB_BOLTED_ONLY bit is set, otherwise
|
|
|
|
|
all entries. When the end of the HPT is reached, the read() will
|
|
|
|
|
return. If read() is called again on the fd, it will start again from
|
|
|
|
|
the beginning of the HPT, but will only return HPT entries that have
|
|
|
|
|
changed since they were last read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Data read or written is structured as a header (8 bytes) followed by a
|
|
|
|
|
series of valid HPT entries (16 bytes) each. The header indicates how
|
|
|
|
|
many valid HPT entries there are and how many invalid entries follow
|
|
|
|
|
the valid entries. The invalid entries are not represented explicitly
|
|
|
|
|
in the stream. The header format is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_get_htab_header {
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 index;
|
|
|
|
|
__u16 n_valid;
|
|
|
|
|
__u16 n_invalid;
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writes to the fd create HPT entries starting at the index given in the
|
|
|
|
|
header; first `n_valid' valid entries with contents from the data
|
|
|
|
|
written, then `n_invalid' invalid entries, invalidating any previously
|
|
|
|
|
valid entries found.

|
|
|
|
Type: vcpu ioctl
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: struct struct kvm_vcpu_init (in)
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
Errors:
|
|
|
|
|
EINVAL: the target is unknown, or the combination of features is invalid.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This tells KVM what type of CPU to present to the guest, and what
|
|
|
|
|
optional features it should have. This will cause a reset of the cpu
|
|
|
|
|
registers to their initial values. If this is not called, KVM_RUN will
|
|
|
|
|
return ENOEXEC for that vcpu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that because some registers reflect machine topology, all vcpus
|
|
|
|
|
should be created before this ioctl is invoked.
|
|

|
|
|
2013-01-20 23:28:13 +00:00

Possible features:
|
|
|
|
|
- KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF: Starts the CPU in a power-off state.
|
|
|
|
|
Depends on KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI.
|
2013-04-02 16:46:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
- KVM_ARM_VCPU_EL1_32BIT: Starts the CPU in a 32bit mode.

This queries KVM for preferred CPU target type which can be emulated
|
|
|
|
|
by KVM on underlying host.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ioctl returns struct kvm_vcpu_init instance containing information
|
|
|
|
|
about preferred CPU target type and recommended features for it. The
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_vcpu_init->features bitmap returned will have feature bits set if
|
|
|
|
|
the preferred target recommends setting these features, but this is
|
|
|
|
|
not mandatory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The information returned by this ioctl can be used to prepare an instance
|
|
|
|
|
of struct kvm_vcpu_init for KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ioctl which will result in
|
|

Application code obtains a pointer to the kvm_run structure by
|
|
|
|
|
mmap()ing a vcpu fd. From that point, application code can control
|
|
|
|
|
execution by changing fields in kvm_run prior to calling the KVM_RUN
|
|
|
|
|
ioctl, and obtain information about the reason KVM_RUN returned by
|
|
|
|
|
looking up structure members.

application code why KVM_RUN has returned. Allowable values for this

MOL uses a special hypercall interface it calls 'OSI'. To enable it, we catch
|
|
|
|
|
hypercalls and exit with this exit struct that contains all the guest gprs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If exit_reason is KVM_EXIT_OSI, then the vcpu has triggered such a hypercall.
|
|
|
|
|
Userspace can now handle the hypercall and when it's done modify the gprs as
|
|
|
|
|
necessary. Upon guest entry all guest GPRs will then be replaced by the values
|
|
|
|
|
in this struct.

KVM: PPC: Add support for Book3S processors in hypervisor mode
This adds support for KVM running on 64-bit Book 3S processors,
specifically POWER7, in hypervisor mode. Using hypervisor mode means
that the guest can use the processor's supervisor mode. That means
that the guest can execute privileged instructions and access privileged
registers itself without trapping to the host. This gives excellent
performance, but does mean that KVM cannot emulate a processor
architecture other than the one that the hardware implements.
This code assumes that the guest is running paravirtualized using the
PAPR (Power Architecture Platform Requirements) interface, which is the
interface that IBM's PowerVM hypervisor uses. That means that existing
Linux distributions that run on IBM pSeries machines will also run
under KVM without modification. In order to communicate the PAPR
hypercalls to qemu, this adds a new KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL exit code
to include/linux/kvm.h.
Currently the choice between book3s_hv support and book3s_pr support
(i.e. the existing code, which runs the guest in user mode) has to be
made at kernel configuration time, so a given kernel binary can only
do one or the other.
This new book3s_hv code doesn't support MMIO emulation at present.
Since we are running paravirtualized guests, this isn't a serious
restriction.
With the guest running in supervisor mode, most exceptions go straight
to the guest. We will never get data or instruction storage or segment
interrupts, alignment interrupts, decrementer interrupts, program
interrupts, single-step interrupts, etc., coming to the hypervisor from
the guest. Therefore this introduces a new KVMTEST_NONHV macro for the
exception entry path so that we don't have to do the KVM test on entry
to those exception handlers.
We do however get hypervisor decrementer, hypervisor data storage,
hypervisor instruction storage, and hypervisor emulation assist
interrupts, so we have to handle those.
In hypervisor mode, real-mode accesses can access all of RAM, not just
a limited amount. Therefore we put all the guest state in the vcpu.arch
and use the shadow_vcpu in the PACA only for temporary scratch space.
We allocate the vcpu with kzalloc rather than vzalloc, and we don't use
anything in the kvmppc_vcpu_book3s struct, so we don't allocate it.
We don't have a shared page with the guest, but we still need a
kvm_vcpu_arch_shared struct to store the values of various registers,
so we include one in the vcpu_arch struct.
The POWER7 processor has a restriction that all threads in a core have
to be in the same partition. MMU-on kernel code counts as a partition
(partition 0), so we have to do a partition switch on every entry to and
exit from the guest. At present we require the host and guest to run
in single-thread mode because of this hardware restriction.
This code allocates a hashed page table for the guest and initializes
it with HPTEs for the guest's Virtual Real Memory Area (VRMA). We
require that the guest memory is allocated using 16MB huge pages, in
order to simplify the low-level memory management. This also means that
we can get away without tracking paging activity in the host for now,
since huge pages can't be paged or swapped.
This also adds a few new exports needed by the book3s_hv code.

On FSL BookE PowerPC chips, the interrupt controller has a fast patch
|
|
|
|
|
interrupt acknowledge path to the core. When the core successfully
|
|

|
delivers an interrupt, it automatically populates the EPR register with
|

|
the interrupt vector number and acknowledges the interrupt inside
|
|
|
|
|
the interrupt controller.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case the interrupt controller lives in user space, we need to do

the interrupt acknowledge cycle through it to fetch the next to be

delivered interrupt vector using this exit.

|
|
|
|

should put the acknowledged interrupt vector into the 'epr' field.

__u64 kvm_dirty_regs;

|
union {
|
|
|
|

struct kvm_sync_regs regs;

|
char padding[1024];
|
|
|
|
|
} s;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS is defined, these fields allow userspace to access
|
|
|
|
|
certain guest registers without having to call SET/GET_*REGS. Thus we can
|
|
|
|
|
avoid some system call overhead if userspace has to handle the exit.
|
|
|
|
|
Userspace can query the validity of the structure by checking
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_valid_regs for specific bits. These bits are architecture specific
|
|
|
|
|
and usually define the validity of a groups of registers. (e.g. one bit
|
|
|
|
|
for general purpose registers)

There are certain capabilities that change the behavior of the virtual CPU when
|
|
|
|
|
enabled. To enable them, please see section 4.37. Below you can find a list of
|
|
|
|
|
capabilities and what their effect on the vCPU is when enabling them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following information is provided along with the description:

6.1 KVM_CAP_PPC_OSI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: ppc
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: none
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This capability enables interception of OSI hypercalls that otherwise would
|
|
|
|
|
be treated as normal system calls to be injected into the guest. OSI hypercalls
|
|
|
|
|
were invented by Mac-on-Linux to have a standardized communication mechanism
|
|
|
|
|
between the guest and the host.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When this capability is enabled, KVM_EXIT_OSI can occur.

|
6.2 KVM_CAP_PPC_PAPR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: ppc
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: none
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This capability enables interception of PAPR hypercalls. PAPR hypercalls are
|
|
|
|
|
done using the hypercall instruction "sc 1".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It also sets the guest privilege level to "supervisor" mode. Usually the guest
|
|
|
|
|
runs in "hypervisor" privilege mode with a few missing features.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to the above, it changes the semantics of SDR1. In this mode, the
|
|
|
|
|
HTAB address part of SDR1 contains an HVA instead of a GPA, as PAPR keeps the
|
|
|
|
|
HTAB invisible to the guest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When this capability is enabled, KVM_EXIT_PAPR_HCALL can occur.

6.3 KVM_CAP_SW_TLB
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: ppc
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: args[0] is the address of a struct kvm_config_tlb
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_config_tlb {
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 params;
|
|
|
|
|
__u64 array;
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 mmu_type;
|
|
|
|
|
__u32 array_len;
|
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configures the virtual CPU's TLB array, establishing a shared memory area
|
|
|
|
|
between userspace and KVM. The "params" and "array" fields are userspace
|
|
|
|
|
addresses of mmu-type-specific data structures. The "array_len" field is an
|
|
|
|
|
safety mechanism, and should be set to the size in bytes of the memory that
|
|
|
|
|
userspace has reserved for the array. It must be at least the size dictated
|
|
|
|
|
by "mmu_type" and "params".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While KVM_RUN is active, the shared region is under control of KVM. Its
|
|
|
|
|
contents are undefined, and any modification by userspace results in
|
|
|
|
|
boundedly undefined behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On return from KVM_RUN, the shared region will reflect the current state of
|
|
|
|
|
the guest's TLB. If userspace makes any changes, it must call KVM_DIRTY_TLB
|
|
|
|
|
to tell KVM which entries have been changed, prior to calling KVM_RUN again
|
|
|
|
|
on this vcpu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For mmu types KVM_MMU_FSL_BOOKE_NOHV and KVM_MMU_FSL_BOOKE_HV:
|
|
|
|
|
- The "params" field is of type "struct kvm_book3e_206_tlb_params".
|
|
|
|
|
- The "array" field points to an array of type "struct
|
|
|
|
|
kvm_book3e_206_tlb_entry".
|
|
|
|
|
- The array consists of all entries in the first TLB, followed by all
|
|
|
|
|
entries in the second TLB.
|
|
|
|
|
- Within a TLB, entries are ordered first by increasing set number. Within a
|
|
|
|
|
set, entries are ordered by way (increasing ESEL).
|
|
|
|
|
- The hash for determining set number in TLB0 is: (MAS2 >> 12) & (num_sets - 1)
|
|
|
|
|
where "num_sets" is the tlb_sizes[] value divided by the tlb_ways[] value.
|
|
|
|
|
- The tsize field of mas1 shall be set to 4K on TLB0, even though the
|
|
|
|
|
hardware ignores this value for TLB0.

6.4 KVM_CAP_S390_CSS_SUPPORT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: s390
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: none
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This capability enables support for handling of channel I/O instructions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TEST PENDING INTERRUPTION and the interrupt portion of TEST SUBCHANNEL are
|
|
|
|
|
handled in-kernel, while the other I/O instructions are passed to userspace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When this capability is enabled, KVM_EXIT_S390_TSCH will occur on TEST
|
|
|
|
|
SUBCHANNEL intercepts.

6.5 KVM_CAP_PPC_EPR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Architectures: ppc
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters: args[0] defines whether the proxy facility is active
|
|
|
|
|
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This capability enables or disables the delivery of interrupts through the
|
|
|
|
|
external proxy facility.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When enabled (args[0] != 0), every time the guest gets an external interrupt
|
|
|
|
|
delivered, it automatically exits into user space with a KVM_EXIT_EPR exit
|
|
|
|
|
to receive the topmost interrupt vector.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When disabled (args[0] == 0), behavior is as if this facility is unsupported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When this capability is enabled, KVM_EXIT_EPR can occur.
