[PATCH] KVM: ppc64: Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking

From: Kautuk Consul
Date: Thu Jun 08 2023 - 08:37:28 EST


- Enable CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_DIRTY_RING_ACQ_REL as ppc64 is weakly
ordered.
- Enable CONFIG_NEED_KVM_DIRTY_RING_WITH_BITMAP because the
kvmppc_xive_native_set_attr is called in the context of an ioctl
syscall and will call kvmppc_xive_native_eq_sync for setting the
KVM_DEV_XIVE_EQ_SYNC attribute which will call mark_dirty_page()
when there isn't a running vcpu. Implemented the
kvm_arch_allow_write_without_running_vcpu to always return true
to allow mark_page_dirty_in_slot to mark the page dirty in the
memslot->dirty_bitmap in this case.
- Set KVM_DIRTY_LOG_PAGE_OFFSET for the ring buffer's physical page
offset.
- Implement the kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked function required
for the generic KVM code to call.
- Add a check to kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv for checking whether the dirty
ring is soft full.
- Implement the kvm_arch_flush_remote_tlbs_memslot function to support
the CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT config option.

On testing with live migration it was found that there is around
150-180 ms improvment in overall migration time with this patch.
