[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: SVM: Fix IRQ window inhibit handling

[Sean Christopherson]

Patch 1 fixes a bugs where KVM will keep AVIC inhibit for too long when
running a nested guest and AVIC is inhibited to open an IRQ window.

Patch 2 refcounts IRQ window inhibits so that "closing" an IRQ window on
one vCPU doesn't clobber other vCPUs' windows when AVIC is enabled.

Patch 3 optimizes IRQ window inhibits by avoiding contention on
apicv_update_lock when KVM wants to inhibit AVIC to open an IRQ windows
because AVIC is _already_ inhibited.

Patch 4 further optimizes IRQ window inhibits by isolating the refcount
and the lock in their own cacheline, e.g. to avoid false sharing and cache
line contention with things like apicv_inhibit_reasons, which is read on
every VM-Enter.

v2:
 - Formalize the SoB chains (thanks Naveen!)
 - Explicitly isolate the write-mostly fields with ____cacheline_aligned.
 - Add Naveen's Tested-by tags.

[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: SVM: Fix clearing IRQ window inhibit with nested guests

[Sean Christopherson]

Clearing IRQ window inhibit today relies on interrupt window
interception, but that is not always reachable when nested guests are
involved.

If L1 is intercepting IRQs, then interrupt_window_interception() will
never be reached while L2 is active, because the only reason KVM
would set the V_IRQ intercept in vmcb02 would be on behalf of L1, i.e.
because of vmcb12.  svm_clear_vintr() always operates on (at least)
vmcb01, and VMRUN unconditionally sets GIF=1, which means that
enter_svm_guest_mode() will always do svm_clear_vintr() via
svm_set_gif(svm, true). I.e. KVM will keep the VM-wide inhibit set until
control transfers back to L1 *and* an interrupt window is triggered.

If L1 is not intercepting IRQs, KVM may immediately inject L1's ExtINT
into L2 if IRQs are enabled in L2 without taking an interrupt window
interception.

Address this by clearing the IRQ window inhibit when KVM actually
injects an interrupt and there are no further injectable interrupts.
That way, if L1 isn't intercepting IRQs, KVM will drop the inhibit as
soon as an interrupt is injected into L2. And if L1 is intercepting
IRQs, KVM will keep the inhibit until the IRQ is injected into L2. So,
AVIC won't be left inhibited.

Note, somewhat blindly invoking kvm_clear_apicv_inhibit() is both wrong
and suboptimal.  If the IRQWIN inhibit isn't set, then the vCPU will
unnecessarily take apicv_update_lock for write.  And if a _different_ vCPU
has an injectable IRQ, clearing IRQWIN may block that vCPU's ability to
inject its IRQ.  Defer fixing both issues to a future commit, as fixing
one problem without also fixing the other would also leave KVM in a
temporarily bad state, as would fixing both issues without fixing _this_
bug.  I.e. it's not feasible to fix each bug independently without there
being some remaining flaw in KVM.

[PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: SVM: Fix IRQ window inhibit handling across multiple vCPUs

[Sean Christopherson]

IRQ window inhibits can be requested by multiple vCPUs at the same time
for injecting interrupts meant for different vCPUs. However, AVIC
inhibition is VM-wide and hence it is possible for the inhibition to be
cleared prematurely by the first vCPU that obtains the IRQ window even
though a second vCPU is still waiting for its IRQ window. This is likely
not a functional issue since the other vCPU will again see that
interrupts are pending to be injected (due to KVM_REQ_EVENT), and will
again request for an IRQ window inhibition. However, this can result in
AVIC being rapidly toggled resulting in high contention on
apicv_update_lock and degrading performance of the guest.

Address this by maintaining a VM-wide count of the number of vCPUs that
have requested for an IRQ window. Set/clear the inhibit reason when the
count transitions between 0 and 1. This ensures that the inhibit reason
is not cleared as long as there are some vCPUs still waiting for an IRQ
window.

[PATCH v2 3/4] KVM: SVM: Optimize IRQ window inhibit handling

[Sean Christopherson]

IRQ windows represent times during which an IRQ can be injected into a
vCPU, and thus represent times when a vCPU is running with RFLAGS.IF=1
and GIF enabled (TPR/PPR don't matter since KVM controls interrupt
injection and it only injects one interrupt at a time). On SVM, when
emulating the local APIC (i.e., AVIC disabled), KVM detects IRQ windows
by injecting a dummy virtual interrupt through VMCB.V_IRQ and
intercepting virtual interrupts (INTERCEPT_VINTR). This intercept
triggers as soon as the guest enables interrupts and is about to take
the dummy interrupt, at which point the actual interrupt can be injected
through VMCB.EVENTINJ.

When AVIC is enabled, VMCB.V_IRQ is ignored by the hardware and so
detecting IRQ windows requires AVIC to be inhibited. However, this is
only necessary for ExtINTs since all other interrupts can be injected
either by directly setting IRR in the APIC backing page and letting the
AVIC hardware inject the interrupt into the guest, or via VMCB.V_NMI for
NMIs.

If AVIC is enabled but inhibited for some other reason, KVM has to
request for IRQ window inhibits every time it has to inject an interrupt
into the guest. This is because APICv inhibits are dynamic in nature, so
KVM has to be sure that AVIC is inhibited for purposes of discovering an
IRQ window even if the other inhibit is cleared in the meantime.

This is particularly problematic with APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_PIT_REINJ
which stays set throughout the life of the guest and results in KVM
rapidly toggling IRQ window inhibit resulting in contention on
apicv_update_lock.

Address this by setting and clearing APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_PIT_REINJ
lazily: if some other inhibit reason is already set, just increment the
IRQ window request count and do not update apicv_inhibit_reasons
immediately. If any other inhibit reason is set/cleared in the meantime,
re-evaluate APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_PIT_REINJ by checking the IRQ window
request count and update apicv_inhibit_reasons appropriately. Otherwise,
just the IRQ window request count is incremented/decremented each time
an IRQ window is requested. This reduces much of the contention on the
apicv_update_lock semaphore and does away with much of the performance
degradation.

[PATCH v2 4/4] KVM: Isolate apicv_update_lock and apicv_nr_irq_window_req in a cacheline

[Sean Christopherson]

Force apicv_update_lock and apicv_nr_irq_window_req to reside in their own
cacheline to avoid generating significant contention due to false sharing
when KVM is contantly creating IRQ windows.  E.g. apicv_inhibit_reasons is
read on every VM-Enter; disabled_exits is read on page faults, on PAUSE
exits, if a vCPU is scheduled out, etc.; kvmclock_offset is read every time
a vCPU needs to refresh kvmclock, and so on and so forth.

Isolating the write-mostly fields from all other (read-mostly) fields
improves performance by 7-8% when running netperf TCP_RR between two guests
on the same physical host when using an in-kernel PIT in re-inject mode.
