We have a capability enquire system that allows user space to ask kvm
whether a feature is available.
The point behind this system is that we can have different kernel
configurations with different capabilities and user space can adjust
accordingly.
Because features can always be non existent, we can drop any #ifdefs
on CAP defines that could be used generically, like the irq routing
bits. These can be easily reused for non-IOAPIC systems as well.

On ARM some bits are specific to the model being emulated for the guest and
user space needs a way to tell the kernel about those bits. An example is mmio
device base addresses, where KVM must know the base address for a given device
to properly emulate mmio accesses within a certain address range or directly
map a device with virtualiation extensions into the guest address space.
We make this API ARM-specific as we haven't yet reached a consensus for a
generic API for all KVM architectures that will allow us to do something like
this.

Implement the PSCI specification (ARM DEN 0022A) to control
virtual CPUs being "powered" on or off.
PSCI/KVM is detected using the KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI capability.
A virtual CPU can now be initialized in a "powered off" state,
using the KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF feature flag.
The guest can use either SMC or HVC to execute a PSCI function.

All interrupt injection is now based on the VM ioctl KVM_IRQ_LINE. This
works semantically well for the GIC as we in fact raise/lower a line on
a machine component (the gic). The IOCTL uses the follwing struct.
struct kvm_irq_level {
union {
__u32 irq; /* GSI */
__s32 status; /* not used for KVM_IRQ_LEVEL */
};
__u32 level; /* 0 or 1 */
};
ARM 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:
bits: | 31 ... 24 | 23 ... 16 | 15 ... 0 |
field: | irq_type | vcpu_index | irq_number |
The irq_type field has the following values:
- irq_type[0]: out-of-kernel GIC: irq_number 0 is IRQ, irq_number 1 is FIQ
- irq_type[1]: in-kernel GIC: SPI, irq_number between 32 and 1019 (incl.)
(the vcpu_index field is ignored)
- irq_type[2]: in-kernel GIC: PPI, irq_number between 16 and 31 (incl.)
The irq_number thus corresponds to the irq ID in as in the GICv2 specs.
This is documented in Documentation/kvm/api.txt.

Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors.
Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some
tracing functionality, and basic user space API.
Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now.
Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.

The External Proxy Facility in FSL BookE chips allows the interrupt
controller to automatically acknowledge an interrupt as soon as a
core gets its pending external interrupt delivered.
Today, user space implements the interrupt controller, so we need to
check on it during such a cycle.
This patch implements logic for user space to enable EPR exiting,
disable EPR exiting and EPR exiting itself, so that user space can
acknowledge an interrupt when an external interrupt has successfully
been delivered into the guest vcpu.

Add a new capability, KVM_CAP_S390_CSS_SUPPORT, which will pass
intercepts for channel I/O instructions to userspace. Only I/O
instructions interacting with I/O interrupts need to be handled
in-kernel:
- TEST PENDING INTERRUPTION (tpi) dequeues and stores pending
interrupts entirely in-kernel.
- TEST SUBCHANNEL (tsch) dequeues pending interrupts in-kernel
and exits via KVM_EXIT_S390_TSCH to userspace for subchannel-
related processing.

Add support for injecting machine checks (only repressible
conditions for now).
This is a bit more involved than I/O interrupts, for these reasons:
- Machine checks come in both floating and cpu varieties.
- We don't have a bit for machine checks enabling, but have to use
a roundabout approach with trapping PSW changing instructions and
watching for opened machine checks.

The subchannel-identifying parameters are encoded into the interrupt

I/O interrupts are floating, so they can't be injected on a specific

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.
