The series adds support for ARM64 to mshv_vtl driver.
For this, common Hyper-V code is refactored, necessary support is added,
mshv_vtl_main.c is refactored and then finally support is added in
Kconfig.
Changes since v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260316121241.910764-1-namjain@linux.microsoft.com/
Patch 1: arm64: smp: Export arch_smp_send_reschedule for mshv_vtl module
* Changed prefix in subject (Michael)
* Sashiko - no issues
Patch 2:
* Add #include <linux/io.h> in hv_common.c (Michael)
* Remove ms_hyperv.hints change from non TDX case,
as it won't matter in failure case (Michael)
* Add ms_hyperv.hints &=
~HV_X64_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS_RECOMMENDED for TDX
case, to maintain parity with existing code.
(Sashiko)
* Handle synic_eventring_tail -ENOMEM issue by
returning early (Michael|Sashiko)
* Only 4k page is used here, so add dependency on
PAGE_SIZE_4KB for MSHV_VTL as well in a later
Kconfig patch (Sashiko|Michael)
* Use HV_HYP_PAGE_SIZE instead of PAGE_SIZE to avoid
page size mismatch issues (Sashiko)
* s/"vmalloc_to_pfn(*hvp)"/
"page_to_hvpfn(vmalloc_to_page(*hvp))" in
hv_common.c (Sashiko|Michael)
* s/GFP_KERNEL/flags in __vmalloc. (Sashiko|Michael)
* Limit code to 80 lines in hv_common_cpu_init (Mukesh R.)
* Move arch based definition of
HV_VP_ASSIST_PAGE_ADDRESS_SHIFT to
hvgdk_mini.h (Michael)
* Added a comment about x64 vmalloc_to_pfn(*hvp)) (Michael)
* Move remaining hv_vp_assist_page code from
arch/x86/include/asm/mshyperv.h to
include/asm-generic/mshyperv.h (Michael)
* s/HV_SYN_REG_VP_ASSIST_PAGE/HV_MSR_VP_ASSIST_PAGE (Michael)
Patch 3:
* Rework the code and remove these new APIs. Move
the vmbus_handler global variable and
hv_setup_vmbus_handler()/hv_remove_vmbus_handler()
from arch/x86 to drivers/hv/hv_common.c so that
the same APIs can be used to setup per-cpu vmbus
handlers as well for arm64. (Michael)
Patch 4:
* Sashiko's comments are generic and outside the
scope of the refactoring this patch is doing.
Will take it up separately.
Patch 6:
* Sashiko's comment regarding race condition is false positive.
* Regarding memory leak on cpu offline - online -
beyond the scope of this series, I will fix it
separately.
Patch 7:
* Subject s/"arch: arm64:"/"arm64: hyperv:" (Michael)
* Changed commit msg as per Michael's suggestion
* Add kernel_neon_begin(), kernel_neon_end() calls (Sashiko)
* Removed Note prefix from comments (Michael)
* Added compile time check for cpu context to be
within 1024 bytes of mshv_vtl_run
* Moved the declarations of mshv_vtl_return_call to generic file
Patch 8:
* Split the patch into three patches - number 8-10 (Michael)
* Moved hv_vtl_configure_reg_page declaration to asm-generic header
* Sashiko's other reviews are for existing code,
I will take them separately
Patch 9: (now patch 11)
No changes required for Sashiko's comments as most
of such controls are intentionally designated to
OpenVMM to keep kernel driver simpler.
Patch 10: (now patch 13)
* Remove hv_setup_percpu_vmbus_handler invocations,
after redesign in previous patchsets (Michael)
* Simplified mshv_vtl_get_vsm_regs() by moving arch
specific code (for x86) to hv_vtl -
mshv_vtl_return_call_init(). This removes arch
checks in mshv_vtl driver. Add a separate patch
for this (now patch 12)
* Other Sachiko's reviews are related to existing
code - can be taken up separately
Patch 11 (now patch 15):
* Only 4k page is supported, so add dependency on
PAGE_SIZE_4KB for MSHV_VTL (Sashiko|Mihael)
* Remove "Kconfig: " from subject line. (Michael)
New patch 14:
Add a Kconfig dependency on 4K PAGE_SIZE for
MSHV_VTL to manage assumptions in MSHV_VTL driver
Change prefix in subjects as per below naming convention:
mshv_vtl_main changes - "mshv_vtl: "
arch/arm64 Hyper-V changes - "arm64: hyperv: "
arch/x86 Hyper-V changes - "x86/hyperv: "
Add Reviewed-by on already reviewed patches.
