The Power State and Coordination Interface (PSCI) specification defines SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions for system poweroff and reboot.
This patchset adds: 1. Emulation of PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions in KVM ARM/ARM64 by forwarding them to user space (QEMU or KVMTOOL) 2. System poweroff and reboot using PSCI for ARM/ARM64 kernel
Anup Patel (5): ARM/ARM64: KVM: Update user space API header for PSCI emulation ARM/ARM64: KVM: Forward PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET to user space KVM: Add documentation for KVM_EXIT_PSCI exit reason ARM: psci: Add support for system reboot and poweroff ARM64: psci: Add support for system reboot and poweroff

I think you'd need a KVM_CAP_PSCI or something here so that QEMU can know to mmap this much, no?
Also, it would be easier if you just added the documentation for this change together with this patch IMHO.

Yes, I think its good atleast advertise KVM_CAP_PSCI to QEMU. I'll add it in revised patch.

I am also wondering if this is not solving a very specific need without thinking a little more carefully about this problem.
We have previously discussed the need for some secure side emulation in QEMU, and I think perhaps we need something more generic which allows user space to handle SMC calls and/or allows user space to "inject" some secure world runtime that the kernel can run in a partially or fully isolated container to handle SMC calls.
Peter raised this issue previously and pointed to a proposal he had as well.
Is there a technical reason why we need something specifically directed to PSCI?

In fact, its more general because we pass complete info required to emulate a PSCI call in user space. (Please refer PSCI calling convention)

Its quite natural to add this to PSCI emulation in KVM ARM/ARM64 instead of adding a separate VirtIO device for System reboot and System poweroff.
Also in the process of implementing SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET emulation in user space we would also have an infrastructure for adding emulation of new PSCI calls in user space.

And I strongly oppose to that. It creates consistency issues (what if userspace implements one version of PSCI, and the kernel another?), and also some really horrible situations: Imagine you implement the SUSPEND operation in userspace, and want to wake the vcpu up with an interrupt. You'd end-up having to keep track of the state in the kernel, having to forward the interrupt event to userspace...
So really, no.

Are you suggesting that everytime we want to emulate some new PSCI call with help from user space (e.g. SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET), we add new exit reasons and just keep on increasing KVM exit reasons ?
Why can't the exit reason and exit info in struct kvm_run be PSCI specific ?
On the contrary, it will be good to have exit reason and exit info PSCI specific because we have PSCI specification which tells how it is to be emulated ?

Couldn't we reverse this logic? User space owns PSCI. By default all PSCI calls go to user space. If a PSCI call makes more sense to be executed by kvm, it can explicitly route it to be handled by kvm instead.
That way the owner is still at a single spot and we can fast path the few cases that may be performance critical or a lot easier to handle in kvm.
The good part about this is that we get consistency in QEMU with the TCG PSCI handlers along the way.

No, its not solving a specific problem.
In fact, its more general because we pass complete info required to emulate a PSCI call in user space. (Please refer PSCI calling convention)

If required we can have an additional field in kvm_run->psci which tells whether the PSCI call is an SMC call or HVC call.

Its quite natural to add this to PSCI emulation in KVM ARM/ARM64 instead of adding a separate VirtIO device for System reboot and System poweroff.
Also in the process of implementing SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET emulation in user space we would also have an infrastructure for adding emulation of new PSCI calls in user space.

It creates consistency issues (what if userspace implements one version of PSCI, and the kernel another?), and also some really horrible situations: Imagine you implement the SUSPEND operation in userspace, and want to wake the vcpu up with an interrupt.

The only nag here is that you can't do that for every function: SUSPEND is one, for example. Once your vcpu is suspended, you need to to wake it up with an interrupt, which are not routed to userspace (TFFT!).
So it becomes yet another can of worms, and I rather keep it simple.

Right now the suspended state is private on the vcpu (the vcpu->arch.pause if I'm not mistaken), so QEMU does not have a way to set/unset this.
I think we got around this for migration, because a suspended CPU could always be woken up spuriously according to the ARM specs (Peter, am I mixing things up here?) so we simply wake everything up after migration and it's up to the VM to go to sleep again... Of course, this may not be ideal anyhow, and we could implement something to coordinate this state between user space and the kernel.
If user space puts the thread to sleep waiting for a signal, does vcpu_kick() currently send such a signal and wake you up or is it something we'd have to add?

This is basically how we deal with this on ppc as well. You are never guaranteed that sleeping doesn't wake you up randomly. But this also means that you want to unset vcpu->arch.pause every time you stop waiting for events and go back to user space (-EINTR).
If user space puts the thread to sleep waiting for a signal, does vcpu_kick() currently send such a signal and wake you up or is it something we'd have to add?
Why would user space put a thread to sleep? The kernel pauses the vcpu and user space would just send a signal, sending it back into user space which realizes it doesn't have to do anything, goes back into kvm_run() and thus breaks the pausing.
Or did I misunderstand the problem? :)

Are you suggesting that everytime we want to emulate some new PSCI call with help from user space (e.g. SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET), we add new exit reasons and just keep on increasing KVM exit reasons ?
Why can't the exit reason and exit info in struct kvm_run be PSCI specific ?
On the contrary, it will be good to have exit reason and exit info PSCI specific because we have PSCI specification which tells how it is to be emulated ?
I completely agree with Marc that split-brain ownership of any address space (and PSCI is basically one) is a very bad idea.
However, so far the only solution I've seen mentioned is that the kernel owns PSCI (read: decodes it) and then drives user space with explicit commands.
Couldn't we reverse this logic? User space owns PSCI. By default all PSCI calls go to user space. If a PSCI call makes more sense to be executed by kvm, it can explicitly route it to be handled by kvm instead.
That way the owner is still at a single spot and we can fast path the few cases that may be performance critical or a lot easier to handle in kvm.
The good part about this is that we get consistency in QEMU with the TCG PSCI handlers along the way.
The only nag here is that you can't do that for every function: SUSPEND is one, for example. Once your vcpu is suspended, you need to to wake it up with an interrupt, which are not routed to userspace (TFFT!).
Not sure I understand. Can't you just vcpu_kick() it with a posix signal to get it out of vcpu_run() and unset the "suspended" state? If you guarantee that you don't get spurious exits out of SUSPEND you need to be able to set/unset that bit anyways for migration.
Right now the suspended state is private on the vcpu (the vcpu->arch.pause if I'm not mistaken), so QEMU does not have a way to set/unset this.
I think we got around this for migration, because a suspended CPU could always be woken up spuriously according to the ARM specs (Peter, am I mixing things up here?) so we simply wake everything up after migration and it's up to the VM to go to sleep again... Of course, this may not be ideal anyhow, and we could implement something to coordinate this state between user space and the kernel.
This is basically how we deal with this on ppc as well. You are never guaranteed that sleeping doesn't wake you up randomly. But this also means that you want to unset vcpu->arch.pause every time you stop waiting for events and go back to user space (-EINTR).
Not sure what you mean, in which case do you need to unset the vcpu->arch.pause? We unset this is there's an interrupt to the vcpu detected inside the kernel, coming from either user space or from within a device inside the kernel (like the arch timer).
If user space puts the thread to sleep waiting for a signal, does vcpu_kick() currently send such a signal and wake you up or is it something we'd have to add?
Why would user space put a thread to sleep? The kernel pauses the vcpu and user space would just send a signal, sending it back into user space which realizes it doesn't have to do anything, goes back into kvm_run() and thus breaks the pausing.
Or did I misunderstand the problem? :)
Oh, I mean if you wanted to implement vcpu suspend in user space, you could either somehow set vcpu->pause from user space or you could idle, not call KVM_VCPU_RUN until you receive a signal on that thread. Is this crazy rambling?

But take a look at x86's mpstate. IIRC that's one of the problems it's trying to solve.

Probably, and thinking about it, we can stil have the kernel handle PSCI completely and let user space handle other secure calls without limitations, which is probably the best thing anyhow.

And I strongly oppose to that. It creates consistency issues (what if userspace implements one version of PSCI, and the kernel another?), and also some really horrible situations: Imagine you implement the SUSPEND operation in userspace, and want to wake the vcpu up with an interrupt. You'd end-up having to keep track of the state in the kernel, having to forward the interrupt event to userspace...
It is not about emulating all PSCI functions in user space. Its about forwarding system-level PSCI functions or PSCI functions which cannot be emulated in kernel to user space.
The CPU parts of PSCI can perfectly be implemented in the kernel.
Agreed. This patches does the same.
Then you can return something to userspace indicating what just happened. And it doesn't have to be PSCI specific.
Are you suggesting that everytime we want to emulate some new PSCI call with help from user space (e.g. SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET), we add new exit reasons and just keep on increasing KVM exit reasons ?
Why can't the exit reason and exit info in struct kvm_run be PSCI specific ?
On the contrary, it will be good to have exit reason and exit info PSCI specific because we have PSCI specification which tells how it is to be emulated ?
I completely agree with Marc that split-brain ownership of any address space (and PSCI is basically one) is a very bad idea.
However, so far the only solution I've seen mentioned is that the kernel owns PSCI (read: decodes it) and then drives user space with explicit commands.
Couldn't we reverse this logic? User space owns PSCI. By default all PSCI calls go to user space. If a PSCI call makes more sense to be executed by kvm, it can explicitly route it to be handled by kvm instead.
That way the owner is still at a single spot and we can fast path the few cases that may be performance critical or a lot easier to handle in kvm.
The good part about this is that we get consistency in QEMU with the TCG PSCI handlers along the way.
The only nag here is that you can't do that for every function: SUSPEND is one, for example. Once your vcpu is suspended, you need to to wake it up with an interrupt, which are not routed to userspace (TFFT!).
SUSPEND, OFF, and ON are VCPU level PSCI functions hence have to be done in kernel KVM code.
SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET on the other had are board-level PSCI functions hence have to be done in user space.

So it becomes yet another can of worms, and I rather keep it simple.

No, its not solving a specific problem.
In fact, its more general because we pass complete info required to emulate a PSCI call in user space. (Please refer PSCI calling convention)
We have previously discussed the need for some secure side emulation in QEMU, and I think perhaps we need something more generic which allows user space to handle SMC calls and/or allows user space to "inject" some secure world runtime that the kernel can run in a partially or fully isolated container to handle SMC calls.
Peter raised this issue previously and pointed to a proposal he had as well.
If required we can have an additional field in kvm_run->psci which tells whether the PSCI call is an SMC call or HVC call.
Is there a technical reason why we need something specifically directed to PSCI?
Its quite natural to add this to PSCI emulation in KVM ARM/ARM64 instead of adding a separate VirtIO device for System reboot and System poweroff.
Also in the process of implementing SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET emulation in user space we would also have an infrastructure for adding emulation of new PSCI calls in user space.
And I strongly oppose to that. It creates consistency issues (what if userspace implements one version of PSCI, and the kernel another?), and also some really horrible situations: Imagine you implement the SUSPEND operation in userspace, and want to wake the vcpu up with an interrupt. You'd end-up having to keep track of the state in the kernel, having to forward the interrupt event to userspace...
It is not about emulating all PSCI functions in user space. Its about forwarding system-level PSCI functions or PSCI functions which cannot be emulated in kernel to user space.
The CPU parts of PSCI can perfectly be implemented in the kernel.
Agreed. This patches does the same.
No it doesn't. There is more to it than just signalling userspace. Things along the line of putting CPUs in reset, for example.
Now, for the platform part, I want this to be part of a much larger discussion around how we offload platform-related things to userspace.
M.
The PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions are VM or Guest level functions hence cannot be emulated by the in-kernel PSCI emulation code.
To tackle this, we forward PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET function calls from Guest to user space (i.e. QEMU or KVMTOOL) via KVM run structure with KVM_EXIT_PSCI exit reason.

why this change? run can always be derived from vcpu->run.
Because thats how kvm_handle_mmio_return() and handle_exit() are implemented.
If you think this is inappropriate then function prototypes for kvm_handle_mmio_return() and handle_exit() should also change.

why would reset not return back after emulation?
also, do we need to impose this check or can we get rid of this all together, if user space messes up, it's up to user space...
Yes, I think we should allow SYSTEM_RESET to return. I'll update this with a check.
Actually, when we reach here we also need to update X0-X3 (for ARM R0-R3) with return values in run->psci. I'll add this in subsequent revision.
Are there any of the other PSCI functions that need specific handling in the kernel on the return path?
So far only SYSTEM_RESET and SYSTEM_OFF as per current PSCI spec.
I think people might be also be interested in emulating vendor specific PSCI calls in user space (QEMU or KVMTOOL or Some proprietary software).

I'm really not keen on this approach. Having part of the PSCI implementation offloaded to userspace means we don't have a complete implementation in KVM anymore, and we end-up duplicating functionality all over the place.
Also, OFF and RESET are not PSCI specific concepts, and could be implemented in various ways. I'm more inclined to return a *standardized* exit code that the various platforms can interpret.

Because the kernel isn't emulating the whole board, and you need to power off or reset the whole board, not just the CPUs.

Maybe we should have a more generic "kernel can't handle this, toss it to userspace" API? That might also fit in with supporting guests that want to make SMC calls to an emulated monitor...

Ideally per-CPU reset should be driven by userspace, incidentally. We ought to have an ioctl for "hey, reset this CPU': at the moment we have to fake it up by having QEMU feed the CPU back the register values it read on powerup, which is kind of ugly.

Agreed as well. That's what I was trying to say with a more generic solution, and exiting on a subset of SMC/HVC calls for PSCI is a weird compromise.
After all, PSCI is nothing more than acting on SMC or HVC calls, and I'm quite sure there will be a need for user space to emulate handling of SMC calls sooner or later, and that is the interface we need.
We may end up with both kernel and user space support for PSCI in that case, but naturally it would always be *either* the kernel handling the whole thing, *or* user space handling the whole thing.
In both cases we may need extra functionality to communicate between user space and KVM, such as suspending a vcpu from user space and waking it up on in-kernel generated timer interrupts, or, conversely, telling user space that there was a PSCI call to turn off the system.
From my point of view the most difficult part to figure out is how to
support general handling of secure monitor services in user space. I don't see any particular problems with expanding the exit reasons with things like "turn off VM" or "reset VM"?

Agreed. Lets keep "user space emulation of PSCI for SMC/HVC" out of discussions because we can implement PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET without that.

support general handling of secure monitor services in user space. I don't see any particular problems with expanding the exit reasons with things like "turn off VM" or "reset VM"?
Fine with me.
I'll keep separate exit reasons for HVC-based SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET.
If everyone agrees with this then I'll change it accordingly in revised patch.

I'm really not keen on this approach. Having part of the PSCI implementation offloaded to userspace means we don't have a complete implementation in KVM anymore, and we end-up duplicating functionality all over the place.
Also, OFF and RESET are not PSCI specific concepts, and could be implemented in various ways. I'm more inclined to return a *standardized* exit code that the various platforms can interpret.
Maybe we should have a more generic "kernel can't handle this, toss it to userspace" API? That might also fit in with supporting guests that want to make SMC calls to an emulated monitor...
Excatly, that is what this patch does by forwarding PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET to user space (QEMU or KVMTOOL).

To tackle this, we forward PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET function calls from Guest to user space (i.e. QEMU or KVMTOOL) via KVM run structure with KVM_EXIT_PSCI exit reason.

Please refer to the documentation of SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET functions in the PSCI specifications. (More preciesly section 5.10 and 5.11 of http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.den0022b/index.h...)

Anup,
I think everyone knows where to find the specs, and I'm even more sure that Marc knows the details of PSCI.
If there is a certain aspect of the spec that you find helpful to this discussion that supports an implementation or design decision, I suggest you try more carefully to explain why you think it is the right solution, possibly using references to the specs in order to help people out.

This patch adds documentation for KVM_EXIT_PSCI exit reason and PSCI call info in KVM run structure.
We use exit reason KVM_EXIT_PSCI to forward PSCI calls such as SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET to user space (i.e. QEMU or KVMTOOL)

Thanks, for the early warning.
I would be happy to go with your patch since you have already the device tree bindings covered.
IMHO, we should try to go ahead with existing scheme of PSCI device tree bindings for SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET. Later anyone can propose revised PSCI device tree bindings. Its not nice to hold off good changes just because people don't agree on the device tree bindings.
Also, are you planning to revise the device tree bindings for PSCI ?

DT is an ABI. Even more for virtualization. It can't be revised without keeping the old version alive. Once it is in, it is for good, and we have support it forever. So we'd better get it right from the beginning, no matter how long it takes.

Hi All,
If any of you want to try this patchset then you can temporarily use the KVMTOOL patch attached here.
We will soon have QEMU side changes for emulating PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET.
