Generic vcpu interface
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
The virtual cpu "device" also accepts the ioctls KVM_SET_DEVICE_ATTR,
|
|
KVM_GET_DEVICE_ATTR, and KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR. The interface uses the same struct
|
|
kvm_device_attr as other devices, but targets VCPU-wide settings and controls.
|
|
|
|
The groups and attributes per virtual cpu, if any, are architecture specific.
|
|
|
|
1. GROUP: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_CTRL
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
:Architectures: ARM64
|
|
|
|
1.1. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_IRQ
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
:Parameters: in kvm_device_attr.addr the address for PMU overflow interrupt is a
|
|
pointer to an int
|
|
|
|
Returns:
|
|
|
|
======= ========================================================
|
|
-EBUSY The PMU overflow interrupt is already set
|
|
-EFAULT Error reading interrupt number
|
|
-ENXIO PMUv3 not supported or the overflow interrupt not set
|
|
when attempting to get it
|
|
-ENODEV KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3 feature missing from VCPU
|
|
-EINVAL Invalid PMU overflow interrupt number supplied or
|
|
trying to set the IRQ number without using an in-kernel
|
|
irqchip.
|
|
======= ========================================================
|
|
|
|
A value describing the PMUv3 (Performance Monitor Unit v3) overflow interrupt
|
|
number for this vcpu. This interrupt could be a PPI or SPI, but the interrupt
|
|
type must be same for each vcpu. As a PPI, the interrupt number is the same for
|
|
all vcpus, while as an SPI it must be a separate number per vcpu.
|
|
|
|
1.2 ATTRIBUTE: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_INIT
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
:Parameters: no additional parameter in kvm_device_attr.addr
|
|
|
|
Returns:
|
|
|
|
======= ======================================================
|
|
-EEXIST Interrupt number already used
|
|
-ENODEV PMUv3 not supported or GIC not initialized
|
|
-ENXIO PMUv3 not supported, missing VCPU feature or interrupt
|
|
number not set
|
|
-EBUSY PMUv3 already initialized
|
|
======= ======================================================
|
|
|
|
Request the initialization of the PMUv3. If using the PMUv3 with an in-kernel
|
|
virtual GIC implementation, this must be done after initializing the in-kernel
|
|
irqchip.
|
|
|
|
1.3 ATTRIBUTE: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
:Parameters: in kvm_device_attr.addr the address for a PMU event filter is a
|
|
pointer to a struct kvm_pmu_event_filter
|
|
|
|
:Returns:
|
|
|
|
======= ======================================================
|
|
-ENODEV PMUv3 not supported or GIC not initialized
|
|
-ENXIO PMUv3 not properly configured or in-kernel irqchip not
|
|
configured as required prior to calling this attribute
|
|
-EBUSY PMUv3 already initialized
|
|
-EINVAL Invalid filter range
|
|
======= ======================================================
|
|
|
|
Request the installation of a PMU event filter described as follows::
|
|
|
|
struct kvm_pmu_event_filter {
|
|
__u16 base_event;
|
|
__u16 nevents;
|
|
|
|
#define KVM_PMU_EVENT_ALLOW 0
|
|
#define KVM_PMU_EVENT_DENY 1
|
|
|
|
__u8 action;
|
|
__u8 pad[3];
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
A filter range is defined as the range [@base_event, @base_event + @nevents),
|
|
together with an @action (KVM_PMU_EVENT_ALLOW or KVM_PMU_EVENT_DENY). The
|
|
first registered range defines the global policy (global ALLOW if the first
|
|
@action is DENY, global DENY if the first @action is ALLOW). Multiple ranges
|
|
can be programmed, and must fit within the event space defined by the PMU
|
|
architecture (10 bits on ARMv8.0, 16 bits from ARMv8.1 onwards).
|
|
|
|
Note: "Cancelling" a filter by registering the opposite action for the same
|
|
range doesn't change the default action. For example, installing an ALLOW
|
|
filter for event range [0:10) as the first filter and then applying a DENY
|
|
action for the same range will leave the whole range as disabled.
|
|
|
|
Restrictions: Event 0 (SW_INCR) is never filtered, as it doesn't count a
|
|
hardware event. Filtering event 0x1E (CHAIN) has no effect either, as it
|
|
isn't strictly speaking an event. Filtering the cycle counter is possible
|
|
using event 0x11 (CPU_CYCLES).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. GROUP: KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_CTRL
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
:Architectures: ARM, ARM64
|
|
|
|
2.1. ATTRIBUTES: KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_IRQ_VTIMER, KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_IRQ_PTIMER
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
:Parameters: in kvm_device_attr.addr the address for the timer interrupt is a
|
|
pointer to an int
|
|
|
|
Returns:
|
|
|
|
======= =================================
|
|
-EINVAL Invalid timer interrupt number
|
|
-EBUSY One or more VCPUs has already run
|
|
======= =================================
|
|
|
|
A value describing the architected timer interrupt number when connected to an
|
|
in-kernel virtual GIC. These must be a PPI (16 <= intid < 32). Setting the
|
|
attribute overrides the default values (see below).
|
|
|
|
============================= ==========================================
|
|
KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_IRQ_VTIMER The EL1 virtual timer intid (default: 27)
|
|
KVM_ARM_VCPU_TIMER_IRQ_PTIMER The EL1 physical timer intid (default: 30)
|
|
============================= ==========================================
|
|
|
|
Setting the same PPI for different timers will prevent the VCPUs from running.
|
|
Setting the interrupt number on a VCPU configures all VCPUs created at that
|
|
time to use the number provided for a given timer, overwriting any previously
|
|
configured values on other VCPUs. Userspace should configure the interrupt
|
|
numbers on at least one VCPU after creating all VCPUs and before running any
|
|
VCPUs.
|
|
|
|
3. GROUP: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PVTIME_CTRL
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
:Architectures: ARM64
|
|
|
|
3.1 ATTRIBUTE: KVM_ARM_VCPU_PVTIME_IPA
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
:Parameters: 64-bit base address
|
|
|
|
Returns:
|
|
|
|
======= ======================================
|
|
-ENXIO Stolen time not implemented
|
|
-EEXIST Base address already set for this VCPU
|
|
-EINVAL Base address not 64 byte aligned
|
|
======= ======================================
|
|
|
|
Specifies the base address of the stolen time structure for this VCPU. The
|
|
base address must be 64 byte aligned and exist within a valid guest memory
|
|
region. See Documentation/virt/kvm/arm/pvtime.rst for more information
|
|
including the layout of the stolen time structure.
