Generic vm interface
|
||
|
====================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
The virtual machine "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 VM-wide settings
|
||
|
and controls.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The groups and attributes per virtual machine, if any, are architecture
|
||
|
specific.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. GROUP: KVM_S390_VM_MEM_CTRL
|
||
|
Architectures: s390
|
||
|
|
||
|
1.1. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_MEM_ENABLE_CMMA
|
||
|
Parameters: none
|
||
|
Returns: -EBUSY if a vcpu is already defined, otherwise 0
|
||
|
|
||
|
Enables Collaborative Memory Management Assist (CMMA) for the virtual machine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1.2. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_MEM_CLR_CMMA
|
||
|
Parameters: none
|
||
|
Returns: -EINVAL if CMMA was not enabled
|
||
|
0 otherwise
|
||
|
|
||
|
Clear the CMMA status for all guest pages, so any pages the guest marked
|
||
|
as unused are again used any may not be reclaimed by the host.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1.3. ATTRIBUTE KVM_S390_VM_MEM_LIMIT_SIZE
|
||
|
Parameters: in attr->addr the address for the new limit of guest memory
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible
|
||
|
-EINVAL if the virtual machine is of type UCONTROL
|
||
|
-E2BIG if the given guest memory is to big for that machine
|
||
|
-EBUSY if a vcpu is already defined
|
||
|
-ENOMEM if not enough memory is available for a new shadow guest mapping
|
||
|
0 otherwise
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows userspace to query the actual limit and set a new limit for
|
||
|
the maximum guest memory size. The limit will be rounded up to
|
||
|
2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB respectively, as this limit is governed by
|
||
|
the number of page table levels. In the case that there is no limit we will set
|
||
|
the limit to KVM_S390_NO_MEM_LIMIT (U64_MAX).
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. GROUP: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MODEL
|
||
|
Architectures: s390
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.1. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE (r/o)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve machine and kvm specific cpu related information:
|
||
|
|
||
|
struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_machine {
|
||
|
__u64 cpuid; # CPUID of host
|
||
|
__u32 ibc; # IBC level range offered by host
|
||
|
__u8 pad[4];
|
||
|
__u64 fac_mask[256]; # set of cpu facilities enabled by KVM
|
||
|
__u64 fac_list[256]; # set of cpu facilities offered by host
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of buffer to store the machine related cpu data
|
||
|
of type struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_machine*
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space
|
||
|
-ENOMEM if not enough memory is available to process the ioctl
|
||
|
0 in case of success
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.2. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_PROCESSOR (r/w)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve or request to change cpu related information for a vcpu:
|
||
|
|
||
|
struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_processor {
|
||
|
__u64 cpuid; # CPUID currently (to be) used by this vcpu
|
||
|
__u16 ibc; # IBC level currently (to be) used by this vcpu
|
||
|
__u8 pad[6];
|
||
|
__u64 fac_list[256]; # set of cpu facilities currently (to be) used
|
||
|
# by this vcpu
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
KVM does not enforce or limit the cpu model data in any form. Take the information
|
||
|
retrieved by means of KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE as hint for reasonable configuration
|
||
|
setups. Instruction interceptions triggered by additionally set facility bits that
|
||
|
are not handled by KVM need to by imlemented in the VM driver code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of buffer to store/set the processor related cpu
|
||
|
data of type struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_processor*.
|
||
|
Returns: -EBUSY in case 1 or more vcpus are already activated (only in write case)
|
||
|
-EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space
|
||
|
-ENOMEM if not enough memory is available to process the ioctl
|
||
|
0 in case of success
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.3. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE_FEAT (r/o)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve available cpu features. A feature is available if
|
||
|
provided by the hardware and supported by kvm. In theory, cpu features could
|
||
|
even be completely emulated by kvm.
|
||
|
|
||
|
struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_feat {
|
||
|
__u64 feat[16]; # Bitmap (1 = feature available), MSB 0 bit numbering
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer to load the feature list from.
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space.
|
||
|
0 in case of success.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.4. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_PROCESSOR_FEAT (r/w)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve or change enabled cpu features for all VCPUs of a
|
||
|
VM. Features that are not available cannot be enabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See 2.3. for a description of the parameter struct.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer to store/load the feature list from.
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space.
|
||
|
-EINVAL if a cpu feature that is not available is to be enabled.
|
||
|
-EBUSY if at least one VCPU has already been defined.
|
||
|
0 in case of success.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.5. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE_SUBFUNC (r/o)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve available cpu subfunctions without any filtering
|
||
|
done by a set IBC. These subfunctions are indicated to the guest VCPU via
|
||
|
query or "test bit" subfunctions and used e.g. by cpacf functions, plo and ptff.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A subfunction block is only valid if KVM_S390_VM_CPU_MACHINE contains the
|
||
|
STFL(E) bit introducing the affected instruction. If the affected instruction
|
||
|
indicates subfunctions via a "query subfunction", the response block is
|
||
|
contained in the returned struct. If the affected instruction
|
||
|
indicates subfunctions via a "test bit" mechanism, the subfunction codes are
|
||
|
contained in the returned struct in MSB 0 bit numbering.
|
||
|
|
||
|
struct kvm_s390_vm_cpu_subfunc {
|
||
|
u8 plo[32]; # always valid (ESA/390 feature)
|
||
|
u8 ptff[16]; # valid with TOD-clock steering
|
||
|
u8 kmac[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist
|
||
|
u8 kmc[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist
|
||
|
u8 km[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist
|
||
|
u8 kimd[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist
|
||
|
u8 klmd[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist
|
||
|
u8 pckmo[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 3
|
||
|
u8 kmctr[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 4
|
||
|
u8 kmf[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 4
|
||
|
u8 kmo[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 4
|
||
|
u8 pcc[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 4
|
||
|
u8 ppno[16]; # valid with Message-Security-Assist-Extension 5
|
||
|
u8 reserved[1824]; # reserved for future instructions
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer to load the subfunction blocks from.
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space.
|
||
|
0 in case of success.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2.6. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_CPU_PROCESSOR_SUBFUNC (r/w)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to retrieve or change cpu subfunctions to be indicated for
|
||
|
all VCPUs of a VM. This attribute will only be available if kernel and
|
||
|
hardware support are in place.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The kernel uses the configured subfunction blocks for indication to
|
||
|
the guest. A subfunction block will only be used if the associated STFL(E) bit
|
||
|
has not been disabled by user space (so the instruction to be queried is
|
||
|
actually available for the guest).
|
||
|
|
||
|
As long as no data has been written, a read will fail. The IBC will be used
|
||
|
to determine available subfunctions in this case, this will guarantee backward
|
||
|
compatibility.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See 2.5. for a description of the parameter struct.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer to store/load the subfunction blocks from.
|
||
|
Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible from kernel space.
|
||
|
-EINVAL when reading, if there was no write yet.
|
||
|
-EBUSY if at least one VCPU has already been defined.
|
||
|
0 in case of success.
|
||
|
|
||
|

||
|
|
||
|
3.1. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_TOD_HIGH
|
||
|
|

|

|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer in user space to store the data (u8) to

|
||
|
|
||
|
3.2. ATTRIBUTE: KVM_S390_VM_TOD_LOW
|
||
|
|
||
|
Allows user space to set/get bits 0-63 of the TOD clock register as defined in
|
||
|
the POP (u64).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters: address of a buffer in user space to store the data (u64) to
