KVM updates for v4.20
ARM:
- Improved guest IPA space support (32 to 52 bits)
- RAS event delivery for 32bit
- PMU fixes
- Guest entry hardening
- Various cleanups
- Port of dirty_log_test selftest
PPC:
- Nested HV KVM support for radix guests on POWER9. The performance is
much better than with PR KVM. Migration and arbitrary level of
nesting is supported.
- Disable nested HV-KVM on early POWER9 chips that need a particular hardware
bug workaround
- One VM per core mode to prevent potential data leaks
- PCI pass-through optimization
- merge ppc-kvm topic branch and kvm-ppc-fixes to get a better base
s390:
- Initial version of AP crypto virtualization via vfio-mdev
- Improvement for vfio-ap
- Set the host program identifier
- Optimize page table locking
x86:
- Enable nested virtualization by default
- Implement Hyper-V IPI hypercalls
- Improve #PF and #DB handling
- Allow guests to use Enlightened VMCS
- Add migration selftests for VMCS and Enlightened VMCS
- Allow coalesced PIO accesses
- Add an option to perform nested VMCS host state consistency check
through hardware
- Automatic tuning of lapic_timer_advance_ns
- Many fixes, minor improvements, and cleanups
KVM/nVMX: Do not validate that posted_intr_desc_addr is page aligned
The spec only requires the posted interrupt descriptor address to be
64-bytes aligned (i.e. bits[0:5] == 0). Using page_address_valid also
forces the address to be page aligned.
Only validate that the address does not cross the maximum physical address
without enforcing a page alignment.
