Subject: [PATCH V4 0/3] KVM/Hyper-V: Add Hyper-V direct tlb flush support

From: Tianyu Lan <[email protected]>

This patchset is to add Hyper-V direct tlb support in KVM. Hyper-V
in L0 can delegate L1 hypervisor to handle tlb flush request from
L2 guest when direct tlb flush is enabled in L1.

Patch 2 introduces new cap KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH to enable
feature from user space. User space should enable this feature only
when Hyper-V hypervisor capability is exposed to guest and KVM profile
is hided. There is a parameter conflict between KVM and Hyper-V hypercall.
We hope L2 guest doesn't use KVM hypercall when the feature is
enabled. Detail please see comment of new API "KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH"

Change since v3:
- Update changelog in each patches.

Change since v2:
- Move hv assist page(hv_pa_pg) from struct kvm to struct kvm_hv.

Change since v1:
- Fix offset issue in the patch 1.
- Update description of KVM KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH.

Subject: [PATCH V4 1/3] x86/Hyper-V: Fix definition of struct hv_vp_assist_page

From: Tianyu Lan <[email protected]>

The struct hv_vp_assist_page was defined incorrectly.
The "vtl_control" should be u64[3], "nested_enlightenments
_control" should be a u64 and there are 7 reserved bytes
following "enlighten_vmentry". Fix the definition.

Subject: [PATCH V4 2/3] KVM/Hyper-V: Add new KVM capability KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH

From: Tianyu Lan <[email protected]>

Hyper-V direct tlb flush function should be enabled for
guest that only uses Hyper-V hypercall. User space
hypervisor(e.g, Qemu) can disable KVM identification in
CPUID and just exposes Hyper-V identification to make
sure the precondition. Add new KVM capability KVM_CAP_
HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH for user space to enable Hyper-V
direct tlb function and this function is default to be
disabled in KVM.

- Update Changelog.
Change since v1:
- Update description of KVM_CAP_HYPERV_DIRECT_TLBFLUSH

I had a suggestion how we can get away without the new capability (like
direct tlb flush gets automatically enabled when Hyper-V hypercall page
is activated and we know we can't handle KVM hypercalls any more)
but this can probably be done as a follow-up.

Hi Vital'y:
Actually, I have tried your proposal but it turns out
KVM in L1 fails to
enable direct tlb flush most time after nested VM starts.
"hv_enlightenments_control.
nested_flush_hypercall" flag in evmcs is cleared by Hyper-V after run
nested VM. I still
wait answer from Hyper-V team. So far, it looks like enabling direct
tlb flush before start
nested VM is a safe way.Once get more infomration from Hyper-V team and we may
have a look to how to enable your proposal.
