Replace the perf_test_ prefix on symbol names with memstress_ to match
the new file name.
"memstress" better describes the functionality proveded by this library,
which is to provide functionality for creating and running a VM that
stresses VM memory by reading and writing to guest memory on all vCPUs
in parallel.
"memstress" also contains the same number of chracters as "perf_test",
making it a drop-in replacement in symbols, e.g. function names, without
impacting line lengths. Also the lack of underscore between "mem" and
"stress" makes it clear "memstress" is a noun.

Randomize which pages are written vs read using the random number
generator.
Change the variable wr_fract and associated function calls to
write_percent that now operates as a percentage from 0 to 100 where X
means each page has an X% chance of being written. Change the -f
argument to -w to reflect the new variable semantics. Keep the same
default of 100% writes.
Population always uses 100% writes to ensure all memory is actually
populated and not just mapped to the zero page. The prevents expensive
copy-on-write faults from occurring during the dirty memory iterations
below, which would pollute the performance results.
Each vCPU calculates its own random seed by adding its index to the

Add a command line option, -c, to pin vCPUs to physical CPUs (pCPUs),
i.e. to force vCPUs to run on specific pCPUs.
Requirement to implement this feature came in discussion on the patch
"Make page tables for eager page splitting NUMA aware"
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YuhPT2drgqL+osLl@google.com/
This feature is useful as it provides a way to analyze performance based
on the vCPUs and dirty log worker locations, like on the different NUMA
nodes or on the same NUMA nodes.
To keep things simple, implementation is intentionally very limited,
either all of the vCPUs will be pinned followed by an optional main
thread or nothing will be pinned.

Add a command line option to dirty_log_perf_test to run vCPUs for the
entire duration of disabling dirty logging. By default, the test stops
running runs vCPUs before disabling dirty logging, which is faster but
less interesting as it doesn't stress KVM's handling of contention
between page faults and the zapping of collapsible SPTEs. Enabling the
flag also lets the user verify that KVM is indeed rebuilding zapped SPTEs
as huge pages by checking KVM's pages_{1g,2m,4k} stats. Without vCPUs to
fault in the zapped SPTEs, the stats will show that KVM is zapping pages,
but they never show whether or not KVM actually allows huge pages to be
recreated.
Note! Enabling the flag can _significantly_ increase runtime, especially
if the thread that's disabling dirty logging doesn't have a dedicated
pCPU, e.g. if all pCPUs are used to run vCPUs.

dirty_log_perf_test instantiates a VGICv3 for the guest (if supported by
hardware) to reduce the overhead of guest exits. However, the test does
not actually close the GIC fd when cleaning up the VM between test
iterations, meaning that the VM is never actually destroyed in the
kernel.
While this is generally a bad idea, the bug was detected from the kernel
spewing about duplicate debugfs entries as subsequent VMs happen to
reuse the same FD even though the debugfs directory is still present.
Abstract away the notion of setup/cleanup of the GIC FD from the test
by creating arch-specific helpers for test setup/cleanup. Close the GIC
FD on VM cleanup and do nothing for the other architectures.

perf_test_util is used to set up KVM selftests where vCPUs touch a
region of memory. The guest code is implemented in perf_test_util.c (not
the calling selftests). The guest code requires a 1 parameter, the
vcpuid, which has to be set by calling vcpu_args_set(vm, vcpu_id, 1,
vcpu_id).
Today all of the selftests that use perf_test_util are making this call.
Instead, perf_test_util should just do it. This will save some code but
more importantly prevents mistakes since totally non-obvious that this
needs to be called and failing to do so results in vCPUs not accessing
the right regions of memory.

Currently the population stage in the dirty_log_perf_test does nothing
as the per-vCPU iteration counters are not initialized and the loop does
not wait for each vCPU. Remedy those errors.

In order to add an iteration -1 to indicate that the memory population
phase has not yet completed, convert the interations counters to ints.
No functional change intended.

Peter Xu pointed out that a log message printed while waiting for the
memory population phase of the dirty_log_perf_test will flood the debug
logs as there is no delay after printing the message. Since the message
does not provide much value anyway, remove it.

In response to some earlier comments from Peter Xu, rename
timespec_diff_now to the much more sensible timespec_elapsed.
No functional change intended.

It's not conventional C to put non-inline functions in header
files. Create a source file for the functions instead. Also
reduce the amount of globals and rename the functions to
something less generic.

demand_paging_test, dirty_log_test, and dirty_log_perf_test have
redundant guest mode code. Factor it out.
Also, while adding a new include, remove the ones we don't need.

Nothing sets USE_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG anymore, so anything it surrounds
is dead code.
However, it is the recommended way to use the dirty page bitmap
for new enough kernel, so use it whenever KVM has the
KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT2 capability.

Even though one iteration is not enough for the dirty log performance
test (due to the cost of building page tables, zeroing memory etc.)
two is okay and it is the default. Without this patch,
"./dirty_log_perf_test" without any further arguments fails.

The dirty log perf test will time verious dirty logging operations
(enabling dirty logging, dirtying memory, getting the dirty log,
clearing the dirty log, and disabling dirty logging) in order to
quantify dirty logging performance. This test can be used to inform
future performance improvements to KVM's dirty logging infrastructure.
This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel
Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4
dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32
demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64
demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4
demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32
All behaved as expected.
