[PATCH 0/5] KVM: arm64: vcpu preempted check support

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

This patch set aims to support the vcpu_is_preempted() functionality
under KVM/arm64, which allowing the guest to obtain the vcpu is
currently running or not. This will enhance lock performance on
overcommitted hosts (more runnable vcpus than physical cpus in the
system) as doing busy waits for preempted vcpus will hurt system
performance far worse than early yielding.

We have observed some performace improvements in uninx benchmark tests.

unix benchmark result:
  host:  kernel 5.5.0-rc1, HiSilicon Kunpeng920, 8 cpus
  guest: kernel 5.5.0-rc1, 16 vcpus

[PATCH 1/5] KVM: arm64: Document PV-lock interface

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 to obtain the vcpu
is currently running or not.

A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the
hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared
memory structures.

+Paravirtualized lock support for arm64
+=====================================+
+KVM/arm64 provids some hypervisor service calls to support a paravirtualized
+guest obtaining the vcpu is currently running or not.
+
+Two new SMCCC compatible hypercalls are defined:
+
+* PV_LOCK_FEATURES:   0xC5000040
+* PV_LOCK_PREEMPTED:  0xC5000041
+
+The existence of the PV_LOCK hypercall should be probed using the SMCCC 1.1
+ARCH_FEATURES mechanism before calling it.
+
+PV_LOCK_FEATURES
+    ============= ========    =========+    Function ID:  (uint32)   
0xC5000040
+    PV_call_id:   (uint32)    The function to query for support.
+    Return value: (int64)     NOT_SUPPORTED (-1) or SUCCESS (0) if the relevant
+                              PV-lock feature is supported by the hypervisor.

+PV_LOCK_PREEMPTED

+                              this vcpu's pv data structure is configured
by
+                              the hypervisor.

[PATCH 2/5] KVM: arm64: Implement PV_LOCK_FEATURES call

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

This provides a mechanism for querying which paravirtualized lock
features are available in this hypervisor.

Also add the header file which defines the ABI for the paravirtualized
lock features we're about to add.

[PATCH 3/5] KVM: arm64: Support pvlock preempted via shared structure

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

Implement the service call for configuring a shared structure between a
vcpu and the hypervisor in which the hypervisor can tell the vcpu is
running or not.

The preempted field is zero if 1) some old KVM deos not support this filed.
2) the vcpu is not preempted. Other values means the vcpu has been preempted.

[PATCH 4/5] KVM: arm64: Add interface to support vcpu preempted check

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

This is to fix some lock holder preemption issues. Some other locks
implementation do a spin loop before acquiring the lock itself.
Currently kernel has an interface of bool vcpu_is_preempted(int cpu). It
takes the cpu as parameter and return true if the cpu is preempted.
Then kernel can break the spin loops upon the retval of vcpu_is_preempted.

As kernel has used this interface, So lets support it.

[PATCH 5/5] KVM: arm64: Support the vcpu preemption check

From: Zengruan Ye <yezengruan at huawei.com>

Support the vcpu_is_preempted() functionality under KVM/arm64. This will
enhance lock performance on overcommitted hosts (more runnable vcpus
than physical cpus in the system) as doing busy waits for preempted
vcpus will hurt system performance far worse than early yielding.

unix benchmark result:
  host:  kernel 5.5.0-rc1, HiSilicon Kunpeng920, 8 cpus
  guest: kernel 5.5.0-rc1, 16 vcpus

Thanks for pointing it out to me! Actually, I also don't see any documents
or KVM specific that describes this features. The values in the "Vendor
Specific Hypervisor Service Calls" section may be more appropriate, such as
the following

* PV_LOCK_FEATURES:   0xC6000020
* PV_LOCK_PREEMPTED:  0xC6000021

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Good point, I'll update the code.
