[PATCH v3 0/7] arm64: hyperv: Support Virtual Trust Level Boot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch set enables the Hyper-V code to boot on ARM64 inside a Virtual Trust
Level. These levels are a part of the Virtual Secure Mode documented in the
Top-Level Functional Specification available at
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/tlfs/vsm

    - Employed the SMC recently implemented in the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor
      to detect running on Hyper-V/arm64. No dependence on ACPI/DT is needed
      anymore although the source code still falls back to ACPI as the new
      hypervisor might be available only in the Windows Insiders channel just
      yet.
    - As a part of the above, refactored detecting the hypervisor via ACPI FADT.
    - There was a suggestion to explore whether it is feasible or not to express
      that ACPI must be absent for the VTL mode and present for the regular guests
      in the Hyper-V Kconfig file.
      My current conclusion is that this will require refactoring in many places.
      That becomes especially convoluted on x86_64 due to the MSI and APIC
      dependencies. I'd ask to let us tackle that in another patch series (or chalk
      up to nice-have's rather than fires to put out) to separate concerns and
      decrease chances of breakage.
    - While refactoring `get_vtl(void)` and the related code, fixed the hypercall
      output address not to overlap with the input as the Hyper-V TLFS mandates:
      "The input and output parameter lists cannot overlap or cross page boundaries."
      See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/tlfs/hypercall-interface
      for more.
      Some might argue that should've been a topic for a separate patch series;
      I'd counter that the change is well-contained (one line), has no dependencies,
      and makes the code legal.
    - Made the VTL boot code (c)leaner as was suggested.
    - Set DMA cache coherency for the VMBus.
    - Updated DT bindings in the VMBus documentation (separated out into a new patch).
    - Fixed `vmbus_set_irq` to use the API that works both for the ACPI and OF.
    - Reworked setting up the vPCI MSI IRQ domain in the non-ACPI case. The logic
      looks a bit fiddly/ad-hoc as I couldn't find the API that would fit the bill.
      Added comments to explain myself.

    - Decreased number of #ifdef's
    - Updated the wording in the commit messages to adhere to the guidlines
    - Sending to the correct set of maintainers and mail lists

For validation, I built kernels for the arch'es in question with the small initrd
embedded into the kernel and booted the Hyper-V VMs off of that.
