When all vCPU threads on one pCPU are put to sleep (e.g., when all
guests execute HLT), hv would schedule to idle thread. Currently the
idle thread executes PAUSE which does not enter any c-state and consumes
a lot of power. This patch is to support HLT in the idle thread.
When we switch to HLT, we have to make sure events that would wake a
vCPU must also be able to wake the pCPU. Those events are either
generated by local interrupt or issued by other pCPUs followed by an
ipi kick.
Each of them have an interrupt involved, so they are also able to wake
the halted pCPU. Except when the pCPU has just scheduled to idle thread
but not yet halted, interrupts could be missed.
sleep-------schedule to idle------IRQ ON---HLT--(kick missed)
^
wake---kick|
This areas should be protected. This is done by a safe halt
mechanism leveraging STI instruction’s delay effect (same as Linux).
vCPUs with lapic_pt or hv with CONFIG_KEEP_IRQ_DISABLED=y does not allow
interrupts in root mode, so they could never wake from HLT (INIT kick
does not wake HLT in root mode either). They should continue using PAUSE
in idle.

According to SDM Vol3 11.12.10, in x2APIC mode, Logical Destination has
two parts:
- Cluster ID (LDR[31:16])
- Logical ID (LDR[15:0])
Cluster ID is a numerical address, while Logical ID is a 16bit mask. We
can only use Logical ID to address multi destinations within a Cluster.
So we can't just 'or' all the Logical Destination in LDR registers to
get one mask for all target pCPUs. This would get a wrong destination
mask if the target Destinations are from different Clusters.
For example in ADL/RPL x2APIC LDRs for core 2-5 are 0x10001 0x10100
0x20001 0x20100. If we 'or' them together, we would get a Logical
Destination of 0x30101, which points to core 6 and another core.
If core 6 is running a RTVM, then the irq is unable to get to
core 2-5, causing the guest on core 2-5 driver fail.
Guests working in xAPIC mode may use 'Flat Model' to select an
arbitrary list of CPUs as its irq destination. HV may not be able to
include them all when transfering to physical destinations, because
the HW is working in x2APIC mode and can only use 'Cluster Model'.
There would be no perfect fix for this issue. This patch is a simple
fix, by just keep the first Cluster of all target Logical Destinations.

Currently CPU frequency control is hidden to guests, and controlled

still need CPU performance info to make multi-core scheduling decisions.
This is seen on Linux kernel, which uses HWP highest performance level
as CPU core's priority in multi-core scheduling (CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO).
Enabling this kernel feature could improve performance as single thread
workloads are scheduled on the highest performance cores. This is
significantly useful for guests with hybrid cores.
The concept is to expose performance interface to guest who exclusively
owns pCPU assigned to it. So that Linux guest can load intel_pstate
driver which will then provide the kernel with each core's schedule
priority.
Intel_pstate driver also relies on CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB to implement
this mechanic, this means we also need to provide ACPI _CPC in DM.

The design of ACRN CPU performance management is to let hardware
do the autonomous frequency selection(or set to a fixed value),
and remove guest's ability to control CPU frequency.
This patch is to implement the CPU frequency initializer, which will
setup CPU frequency base on the performance policy type.
Two performance policy types are provided for user to choose from:
- 'Performance': CPU runs at its CPU runs at its maximum frequency.
Enable hardware autonomous frequency selection if HWP is presented.
- 'Nominal': CPU runs at its guaranteed frequency.
The policy type is passed to hypervisor through boot parameter, as
either 'cpu_perf_policy=Nominal' or 'cpu_perf_policy=Performance'.
The default type is 'Performance'.
Both HWP and ACPI p-state are supported. HWP is the first choice, for
it provides hardware autonomous frequency selection, while keeps
frequency transaction time low.
Two functions are added to the hypervisor to call:
- init_frequency_policy(): called by BSP at start up time. It processes
the boot parameters, and enables HWP if it is presented.
- apply_frequency_policy(): called after init_frequency_policy().
It applies initial CPU frequency policy setting for each core. It
uses a set of frequency limits data struct to quickly decide what the
highest/nominal frequency is. The frequency limits are generated by
config-tools.
The hypervisor will not be governing CPU frequency after initial policy
is applied.
Cores running RTVMs are fixed to nominal/guaranteed frequency, to get
more certainty in latency. This is done by setting the core's frequency
limits to highest=lowest=nominal in config-tools.

Commit d575edf79a changes the internal
implementation of wait_event and signal_event to use a counter instead
of a boolean value.
The background was:
ACRN utilizes vcpu_make_request and signal_event pair to shoot down
other vcpus and let them wait for signals. vcpu_make_request eventually
leads to target vcpu calling wait_event.
However vcpu_make_request/signal_event pair was not thread-safe,
and concurrent calls of this pair of API could lead to problems.
One such example is the concurrent wbinvd emulation, where vcpus may
concurrently issue vcpu_make_request/signal_event to synchronize wbinvd
emulation.
d575edf commit uses a counter in internal implementation of
wait_event/signal_event to avoid data races.
However by using a counter, the wait/signal pair now carries semantics of
semaphores instead of events. Semaphores require caller to carefully
plan their calls instead of multiply signaling any number of times to the same
event, which deviates from the original "event" semantics.
This patch changes the API implementation back to boolean-based, and
re-resolve the issue of concurrent wbinvd in next patch.
This also partially reverts commit 10963b04d1,
which was introduced because of the d575edf.

When booting prelaunch RTVM with SSRAM enabled, we need to delete the
SSRAM region that is used by prelaunch RTVM from Service VM EPT mapping.
If it is not used, or it is not fully used, the SSRAM or the rest SSRAM
should be in Service VM map.
But current code has a issue that it always deletes all SSRAM region
from Service VM EPT, even when no SSRAM is enabled for prelaunch RTVM.
This could cause the post RTVM with SSRAM boot failure, as DM checks and
removes SSRAM region from Service VM EPT during post RTVM setup.
Changing get_software_sram_size() to PRE_RTVM_SW_SRAM_MAX_SIZE could
solve the issue, as PRE_RTVM_SW_SRAM_MAX_SIZE is the SSRAM size that
prelaunch RTVM actually uses.

The movdqu instruction moves unaligned double quadword (128 bit)
contained in XMM registers.
This patch uses pointers as input parameters of the function
write_xmm_0_2() to get 128-bit value from 64-bit array for each XMM
register.

The current code only supports 2 HPA regions per VM.
This patch extended ACRN to support 2+ HPA regions per VM, to use host
memory better if it is scatted among multiple regions.
This patch uses an array to describe the hpa region for the VM, and
change the logic of ve820 to support multiple regions.
This patch dependent on the config tool and GPA SSRAM change

When CPUID executes with EAX set to 1AH, the processor returns information about hybrid capabilities.
This information is percpu related, and should be obtained directly from the physical cpu.

Page table entry present check is page table type
specific and static, e.g. just need to check bit0
of page entry for entries of MMU page table and
bit2~bit0 for EPT page table case. hence no need to
check it by callback function every time.
This patch remove 'pgentry_present' callback field and
add a new bitmask field for this page entry present check.
It can get better performance especially when this
check is executed frequently.

Using the SSRAM area size extracted by config_tools, the patch changes
the hard-coded GPA SSRAM area size to its actual size, so that
pre-launched VMs can support large(>8MB) SSRAM area.
When booting service VM, the SSRAM area has to be removed from Service
VM's mem space, because they are passed-through to the pre-rt VM. The
code was bugged since it was using the SSRAM area's GPA in the pre-rt
VM. Changed it to GPA in Service VM.
