GenieZone hypervisor(gzvm) is a type-1 hypervisor that supports various virtual
machine types and provides security features such as TEE-like scenarios and
secure boot. It can create guest VMs for security use cases and has
virtualization capabilities for both platform and interrupt. Although the
hypervisor can be booted independently, it requires the assistance of GenieZone
hypervisor kernel driver(gzvm-ko) to leverage the ability of Linux kernel for
vCPU scheduling, memory management, inter-VM communication and virtio backend
support.
Changes in v11:
- Resolve low memory issue by using only one api to get pages for guest VM.
- The GenieZone hypervisor acts as a vendor firmware to enable platform
virtualization, offering an implementation that is independent of
Linux-specific implementations. So, relocate dt-binding yaml file to
the firmware path, as the dts node is used to confirm the presence of
the geniezone hypervisor firmware.
- Fix coding style from viewer suggestion and checking tools.
Changes in v10:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240412065718.29105-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Optimize memory allocation: query hypervisor demand paging capability before
VM memory population.
- Fix goto syntax according to ACK reviewer in `gzvm_vcpu.c`.
- Fix coding style from viewer suggestion and checking tools.
Changes in v9:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240129083302.26044-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Add gzvm_vm_allocate_guest_page function for demand paging support and
protected VM memory performance optimization.
- Fix coding style from viewer suggestion and checking tools.
Changes in v8:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231228105147.13752-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Add reasons for using dt solution in dt-bindings.
- Add locks for memory pin/unpin and relinquish operations.
- Add VM memory stats in debugfs.
- Add tracing support for hypercall and vcpu exit reasons.
- Enable PTP for timing synchronization between host and guests.
- Optimize memory performance for protected VMs.
- Refactor wording and titles in documentation.
Changes in v7:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231116152756.4250-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Rebase these patches to the Linux 6.7-rc1 release.
- Refactor patches 1 to 15 to improve coding style while ensuring they do not
violate the majority of the changes made in v6
- Provide individual VM memory statistics within debugfs in patch 16.
- Add tracing support for hyper call and vcpu exit_reason.
Changes in v6:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230919111210.19615-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Rebase based on kernel 6.6-rc1
- Keep dt solution and leave the reasons in the commit message
- Remove arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/gzvm_arch.h due to simplicity
- Remove resampler in drivers/virt/geniezone/gzvm_irqfd.c due to defeature for
now
- Remove PPI in arch/arm64/geniezone/vgic.c
- Refactor vm related components into 3 smaller patches, namely adding vm
support, setting user memory region and checking vm capability
- Refactor vcpu and vm component to remove unnecessary ARM prefix
- Add demand paging to fix crash on destroying memory page, acclerate on booting
and support ballooning deflate
- Add memory pin/unpin memory mechanism to support protected VM
- Add block-based demand paging for performance concern
- Response to reviewers and fix coding style accordingly
Changes in v5:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230727080005.14474-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Add dt solution back for device initialization
- Add GZVM_EXIT_GZ reason for gzvm_vcpu_run()
- Add patch for guest page fault handler
- Add patch for supporitng pin/unpin memory
- Remove unused enum members, namely GZVM_FUNC_GET_REGS and GZVM_FUNC_SET_REGS
- Use dev_debug() for debugging when platform device is available, and use
pr_debug() otherwise
- Response to reviewers and fix bugs accordingly
Changes in v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230609085214.31071-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Add macro to set VM as protected without triggering pvmfw in AVF.
- Add support to pass dtb config to hypervisor.
- Add support for virtual timer.
- Add UAPI to pass memory region metadata to hypervisor.
- Define our own macros for ARM's interrupt number
- Elaborate more on GenieZone hyperivsor in documentation
- Fix coding style.
- Implement our own module for coverting ipa to pa
- Modify the way of initializing device from dt to a more discoverable way
- Move refactoring changes into indepedent patches.
Changes in v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230512080405.12043-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Refactor: separate arch/arm64/geniezone/gzvm_arch.c into vm.c/vcpu.c/vgic.c
- Remove redundant functions
- Fix reviewer's comments
Changes in v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230428103622.18291-1-yi-de.wu@mediatek.com/
- Refactor: move to drivers/virt/geniezone
- Refactor: decouple arch-dependent and arch-independent
- Check pending signal before entering guest context
- Fix reviewer's comments
