Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 02/39] KVM: arm64: Add lock/unlock memslot user API

Stage 2 faults triggered by the profiling buffer attempting to write to
memory are reported by the SPE hardware by asserting a buffer management
event interrupt. Interrupts are by their nature asynchronous, which means
that the guest might have changed its stage 1 translation tables since the
attempted write. SPE reports the guest virtual address that caused the data
abort, not the IPA, which means that KVM would have to walk the guest's
stage 1 tables to find the IPA. Using the AT instruction to walk the
guest's tables in hardware is not an option because it doesn't report the
IPA in the case of a stage 2 fault on a stage 1 table walk.

Avoid both issues by pre-mapping the guest memory at stage 2. This is being
done by adding a capability that allows the user to pin the memory backing
a memslot. The same capability can be used to unlock a memslot, which
unpins the pages associated with the memslot, but doesn't unmap the IPA
range from stage 2; in this case, the addresses will be unmapped from stage
2 via the MMU notifiers when the process' address space changes.

For now, the capability doesn't actually do anything other than checking
that the usage is correct; the memory operations will be added in future
patches.

+7.29 KVM_CAP_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION
+----------------------------------------
+
+:Architectures: arm64
+:Target: VM
+:Parameters: flags is one of KVM_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION_FLAGS_LOCK or
+ KVM_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION_FLAGS_UNLOCK
+ args[0] is the slot number
+ args[1] specifies the permisions when the memslot is locked or if
+ all memslots should be unlocked
+
+The presence of this capability indicates that KVM supports locking the memory
+associated with the memslot, and unlocking a previously locked memslot.
+
+The 'flags' parameter is defined as follows:
+
+7.29.1 KVM_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION_FLAGS_LOCK
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+:Capability: 'flags' parameter to KVM_CAP_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION
+:Architectures: arm64
+:Target: VM
+:Parameters: args[0] contains the memory slot number
+ args[1] contains the permissions for the locked memory:
+ KVM_ARM_LOCK_MEMORY_READ (mandatory) to map it with
+ read permissions and KVM_ARM_LOCK_MEMORY_WRITE
+ (optional) with write permissions
+:Returns: 0 on success; negative error code on failure
+
+Enabling this capability causes the memory described by the memslot to be
+pinned in the process address space and the corresponding stage 2 IPA range
+mapped at stage 2. The permissions specified in args[1] apply to both
+mappings. The memory pinned with this capability counts towards the max
+locked memory limit for the current process.
+
+The capability must be enabled before any VCPUs have run. The virtual memory
+range described by the memslot must be mapped in the userspace process without
+any gaps. It is considered an error if write permissions are specified for a
+memslot which logs dirty pages.
+
+7.29.2 KVM_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION_FLAGS_UNLOCK
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+:Capability: 'flags' parameter to KVM_CAP_ARM_LOCK_USER_MEMORY_REGION
+:Architectures: arm64
+:Target: VM
+:Parameters: args[0] contains the memory slot number
+ args[1] optionally contains the flag KVM_ARM_UNLOCK_MEM_ALL,
+ which unlocks all previously locked memslots.
+:Returns: 0 on success; negative error code on failure
+
+Enabling this capability causes the memory pinned when locking the memslot
+specified in args[0] to be unpinned, or, optionally, the memory associated
+with all locked memslots, to be unpinned. The IPA range is not unmapped
+from stage 2.

nit: ^^ Please could we rename "flags" => "perm" (ission) ?

We already have cap->flags, and using arg[1] as flags ( which indeed
is permission by definition) is confusing.
