KVM: X86: Implement ring-based dirty memory tracking This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao <lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1] KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming, as is copying the bitmap to user-space. A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros. The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy harvesting. This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be easily extended to other archs as well.

KVM: Reinstate gfn_to_pfn_cache with invalidation support This can be used in two modes. There is an atomic mode where the cached mapping is accessed while holding the rwlock, and a mode where the physical address is used by a vCPU in guest mode. For the latter case, an invalidation will wake the vCPU with the new KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE, and the architecture will need to refresh any caches it still needs to access before entering guest mode again. Only one vCPU can be targeted by the wake requests; it's simple enough to make it wake all vCPUs or even a mask but I don't see a use case for that additional complexity right now. Invalidation happens from the invalidate_range_start MMU notifier, which needs to be able to sleep in order to wake the vCPU and wait for it. This means that revalidation potentially needs to "wait" for the MMU operation to complete and the invalidate_range_end notifier to be invoked. Like the vCPU when it takes a page fault in that period, we just spin — fixing that in a future patch by implementing an actual *wait* may be another part of shaving this particularly hirsute yak. As noted in the comments in the function itself, the only case where the invalidate_range_start notifier is expected to be called *without* being able to sleep is when the OOM reaper is killing the process. In that case, we expect the vCPU threads already to have exited, and thus there will be nothing to wake, and no reason to wait. So we clear the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT bit and send the request anyway, then complain loudly if there actually *was* anything to wake up.

KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL The VCPU isn't expected to be runnable when the dirty ring becomes soft full, until the dirty pages are harvested and the dirty ring is reset from userspace. So there is a check in each guest's entrace to see if the dirty ring is soft full or not. The VCPU is stopped from running if its dirty ring has been soft full. The similar check will be needed when the feature is going to be supported on ARM64. As Marc Zyngier suggested, a new event will avoid pointless overhead to check the size of the dirty ring ('vcpu->kvm->dirty_ring_size') in each guest's entrance. Add KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL. The event is raised when the dirty ring becomes soft full in kvm_dirty_ring_push(). The event is only cleared in the check, done in the newly added helper kvm_dirty_ring_check_request(). Since the VCPU is not runnable when the dirty ring becomes soft full, the KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL event is always set to prevent the VCPU from running until the dirty pages are harvested and the dirty ring is reset by userspace. kvm_dirty_ring_soft_full() becomes a private function with the newly added helper kvm_dirty_ring_check_request(). The alignment for the various event definitions in kvm_host.h is changed to tab character by the way. In order to avoid using 'container_of()', the argument @ring is replaced by @vcpu in kvm_dirty_ring_push().

KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL The VCPU isn't expected to be runnable when the dirty ring becomes soft full, until the dirty pages are harvested and the dirty ring is reset from userspace. So there is a check in each guest's entrace to see if the dirty ring is soft full or not. The VCPU is stopped from running if its dirty ring has been soft full. The similar check will be needed when the feature is going to be supported on ARM64. As Marc Zyngier suggested, a new event will avoid pointless overhead to check the size of the dirty ring ('vcpu->kvm->dirty_ring_size') in each guest's entrance. Add KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL. The event is raised when the dirty ring becomes soft full in kvm_dirty_ring_push(). The event is only cleared in the check, done in the newly added helper kvm_dirty_ring_check_request(). Since the VCPU is not runnable when the dirty ring becomes soft full, the KVM_REQ_DIRTY_RING_SOFT_FULL event is always set to prevent the VCPU from running until the dirty pages are harvested and the dirty ring is reset by userspace. kvm_dirty_ring_soft_full() becomes a private function with the newly added helper kvm_dirty_ring_check_request(). The alignment for the various event definitions in kvm_host.h is changed to tab character by the way. In order to avoid using 'container_of()', the argument @ring is replaced by @vcpu in kvm_dirty_ring_push().

KVM: X86: Implement ring-based dirty memory tracking This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao <lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1] KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming, as is copying the bitmap to user-space. A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros. The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy harvesting. This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only.
