KVM x86/mmu changes for 6.15
Add support for "fast" aging of SPTEs in both the TDP MMU and Shadow MMU, where
"fast" means "without holding mmu_lock". Not taking mmu_lock allows multiple
aging actions to run in parallel, and more importantly avoids stalling vCPUs,
e.g. due to holding mmu_lock for an extended duration while a vCPU is faulting
in memory.
For the TDP MMU, protect aging via RCU; the page tables are RCU-protected and
KVM doesn't need to access any metadata to age SPTEs.
For the Shadow MMU, use bit 1 of rmap pointers (bit 0 is used to terminate a
list of rmaps) to implement a per-rmap single-bit spinlock. When aging a gfn,
acquire the rmap's spinlock with read-only permissions, which allows hardening
and optimizing the locking and aging, e.g. locking an rmap for write requires
mmu_lock to also be held. The lock is NOT a true R/W spinlock, i.e. multiple
concurrent readers aren't supported.
To avoid forcing all SPTE updates to use atomic operations (clearing the
Accessed bit out of mmu_lock makes it inherently volatile), rework and rename
spte_has_volatile_bits() to spte_needs_atomic_update() and deliberately exclude
the Accessed bit. KVM (and mm/) already tolerates false positives/negatives
for Accessed information, and all testing has shown that reducing the latency
of aging is far more beneficial to overall system performance than providing
"perfect" young/old information.
