[PATCH 0/2] PSCI system off and reset for KVM ARM/ARM64

[PATCH 0/2] PSCI system off and reset for KVM ARM/ARM64

[Anup Patel]

The Power State and Coordination Interface (PSCI) specification defines
SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions for system poweroff and reboot.

This patchset adds emulation of PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions
in KVM ARM/ARM64 by forwarding them to user space (QEMU or KVMTOOL) using
KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN and KVM_EXIT_RESET exit reasons.

To try this patch from guest kernel, we will need PSCI-based restart and
poweroff support in the guest kenel for both ARM and ARM64.

Rob Herring has already submitted patches for PSCI-based restart and
poweroff in ARM kernel but these are not merged yet due unstable device
tree bindings of kernel PSCI support. We will be having similar patches
for PSCI-based restart and poweroff in ARM64 kernel.

[PATCH 1/2] KVM: Add KVM_EXIT_RESET to user space API header

[Anup Patel]

Currently, we don't have an exit reason for VM reset emulation
in user space hence this patch adds exit reason KVM_EXIT_RESET
for this purpose.

This newly added KVM_EXIT_RESET will be used by KVM arm/arm64
in-kernel PSCI support to reset VMs.

I have to admit that I'm not particularly happy with the exit name. It's not obvious from the name under which circumstances it gets triggered. Does it get triggered when a core level reset happens? Does it get triggered when a system level reset happened? When the guest requests one?

I know what it does, but I find the name too generic for what it is. What you're really doing is introduce a new communication channel in parallel to MMIO / PIO / HCALL which is only used for system level reset / shutdown today.

Can we treat it as such? Could you please make this a common exit number that's called something like

  KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT

with a parameter that can either be TRIGGER_SHUTDOWN or TRIGGER_RESET.

That way it's obvious what's going on and people don't get confused.

The KVM_EXIT_RESET gets triggered when system level reset is
initiated by VCPU. For arm/arm64, this is through SYSTEM_RESET
PSCI call. In KVM x86 SVM/VMX, we have KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN
being used for system shutdown which we have re-used for arm/arm64.

I don't foresee any system level operations other than SHUTDOWN
and RESET to be handled from KVM in-kernel code but I might be
wrong.

May be we can rename KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN and KVM_EXIT_RESET
to KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN and KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_RESET ??

Yeah, that name already did mislead you once :).

KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN happens on

  * triple fault
  * CPU internal severe problems

the latter is defined as:

In contrast, an error that cannot be contained and is of such severity that it has compromised the continued operation of a processor core requires immediate action to terminate system processing and may result in a hardware-enforced shutdown. In the shutdown state, the execution of instructions by that processor core is halted. See Section 8.2.9 ?#DF?Double-Fault Exception (Vector 8)? on page 220 for a description of the shutdown processor state.

Triple faults are used commonly in 286 code to switch from PG to real mode. So they _have_ to be emulated as core reset. Otherwise you break old guests.

However, the scope of this exit is definitely vcpu wide. What you are looking for is a system wide notification. Commonly this happens through MMIO, but I can see why you wouldn't want that with PSCI interpreted in the kernel. That's why I asked you to create a completely new one to not add up the the confusion.

The good but about the EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT is that it's immediately obvious that we're not talking about a vcpu local event. But I'm open to better names.

You definitely can not rename KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN. It's part of the KVM API. In fact, I think it's a bad idea to even reuse the name as it clearly works on vcpu level.

Thanks for the info on the x86 part.

I think all this info should have been part of KVM api documentation
for KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN.

Sure, it makes sense to avoid use of KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN
in arm/arm64.

How about adding exit reasons KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_RESET
and KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN ?

These exit reasons will be used for arm/arm64 but can also be
used by other architectures if they want.

I don't think we'll be able to reuse anything for other archs. For hcall PPC for example, we want to keep the hcall number scheme as the same between guest <-> kvm and kvm <-> qemu. That makes the overall logic easier, as the hcall number space is already properly standardized.

It should also make the first switch in userspace on the exit reason
easier, as the same code is likely to handle all sorts of system events.

Did you grab this documentation from somewhere that I can't find with
grep, or did you just come up with it?

Shouldn't we have all exit reasons documented in
Documentation/virtual/kvm/... ?

That was from the AMD64 architecture reference manual :).

Yes, that would be great. The only reason I knew something was fishy was that there's no way for a guest to trigger a non-MMIO/PIO/HCALL event that would end up in a genuine shutdown request ;).

I didn't realize what the KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN really was, thanks for
explaining that.  In that case, the SYSTEM_EVENT sounds good to me.

How do you propose the parameter gets passed?  As a new struct to the
untion in kvm_run ?

Yup, that's how we usually pass information along with an exit reason. Make sure to add a flags field so it can be extended if we need to pass in more later for future unknown events. PPC for example has fun system wide hypercalls like "enable little endian mode on all virtual cpus". I don't even want to start imagining what people will come up with next.

Sure, I will add KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT exit reason and related documentation.

[PATCH 2/2] ARM/ARM64: KVM: Forward PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET to user space

[Anup Patel]

The PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions are system-level
functions hence cannot be fully emulated by the in-kernel PSCI
emulation code.

To tackle this, we forward PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET function
calls from guest to user space (i.e. QEMU or KVMTOOL) via KVM run
structure using KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN and KVM_EXIT_RESET exit reasons.

Hmmm, I think this is a bit confusing because it essentially does the
reverse of all the other kvm internal return convention.  Wouldn't it
make more sense to have 0 (success, but exit to user space), 1 (success,
resume VM), and < 0 (failure).

Also note that you are general-casing all error codes that may happen to
mean that it did not match the PSCI function to anything well-known.
In this case, that's sort of ok, because we don't expect the PSCI code
to randomly fail (if it does, it reports it to the caller in the return
register), but not fail, as in, I'm out of memory or anything like that.
But I think you can clarify this in the comment, by saying something
like:

Errors:
 -EINVAL: Unrecognized PSCI function

in the comment for the function.

Isn't this an unrelated change, which should go in a separate patch with
some justification text for the change?

Otherwise, it looks overall to go in the right direction.

OK, I will change kvm_psci_call() return convention as-per your suggestion.

Actually, handle_smc() was already using kvm_psci_call() so I had to change
it anyway because of changes in kvm_psic_call(). Also, user space emulation
of SMC-based PSCI is going to be different from in-kernel HVC-based PSCI
emulation hence, for now it seemed more appropriate to inject undefined
exception for KVM arm64 (just like KVM arm).

Doh. I though I got rid of that.

That chunk should have been been removed ages ago (probably before
merging the arm64 code), as per 24a7f6757.

Please make it a separate patch, and I'll merge that independently.

Thanks,

Hi All,

If anyone wants to try this patches using KVMTOOL then they
can find guest kernel side PSCI patches and KVMTOOL patch
attached here.
