Merge tag 'kvm-4.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull KVM updates from Radim Krčmář: "First batch of KVM changes for 4.15 Common: - Python 3 support in kvm_stat - Accounting of slabs to kmemcg ARM: - Optimized arch timer handling for KVM/ARM - Improvements to the VGIC ITS code and introduction of an ITS reset ioctl - Unification of the 32-bit fault injection logic - More exact external abort matching logic PPC: - Support for running hashed page table (HPT) MMU mode on a host that is using the radix MMU mode; single threaded mode on POWER 9 is added as a pre-requisite - Resolution of merge conflicts with the last second 4.14 HPT fixes - Fixes and cleanups s390: - Some initial preparation patches for exitless interrupts and crypto - New capability for AIS migration - Fixes x86: - Improved emulation of LAPIC timer mode changes, MCi_STATUS MSRs, and after-reset state - Refined dependencies for VMX features - Fixes for nested SMI injection - A lot of cleanups" * tag 'kvm-4.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (89 commits) KVM: s390: provide a capability for AIS state migration KVM: s390: clear_io_irq() requests are not expected for adapter interrupts KVM: s390: abstract conversion between isc and enum irq_types KVM: s390: vsie: use common code functions for pinning KVM: s390: SIE considerations for AP Queue virtualization KVM: s390: document memory ordering for kvm_s390_vcpu_wakeup KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Cosmetic post-merge cleanups KVM: arm/arm64: fix the incompatible matching for external abort KVM: arm/arm64: Unify 32bit fault injection KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-its: Implement KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_CTRL_RESET KVM: arm/arm64: Document KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_CTRL_RESET KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-its: Free caches when GITS_BASER Valid bit is cleared KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-its: New helper functions to free the caches KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-its: Remove kvm_its_unmap_device arm/arm64: KVM: Load the timer state when enabling the timer KVM: arm/arm64: Rework kvm_timer_should_fire KVM: arm/arm64: Get rid of kvm_timer_flush_hwstate KVM: arm/arm64: Avoid phys timer emulation in vcpu entry/exit KVM: arm/arm64: Move phys_timer_emulate function KVM: arm/arm64: Use kvm_arm_timer_set/get_reg for guest register traps ...

+ ITS Reset State:

+RESET returns the ITS to the same state that it was when first created and
+initialized. When the RESET command returns, the following things are
+guaranteed:
+
+- The ITS is not enabled and quiescent
+ GITS_CTLR.Enabled = 0 .Quiescent=1
+- There is no internally cached state
+- No collection or device table are used
+ GITS_BASER<n>.Valid = 0
+- GITS_CBASER = 0, GITS_CREADR = 0, GITS_CWRITER = 0
+- The ABI version is unchanged and remains the one set when the ITS
+ device was first created.
