Let's give userland the possibility to clear the MTCR in the case
of a subsystem reset.

To migrate the MTCR, let's give userland the possibility to
query the MTCR state.

Just wondering:

1) Do we really need a struct for that
2) Do we want to leave some room for later expansion?

Yes it is the goal, if we want to report more topology information for the case the vCPUs are not pin on the real CPUs.
In this case I think we need to report more information on the vCPU topology to the guest.
For now I explicitly limited the case to pinned vCPUs.

But the change from a u16 to a structure can be done at that moment.

It would be cleaner to have ipte_lock/ipte_unlock variants that are
independent of a vcpu.

Instead of checking for "vcpu->arch.sie_block->eca & ECA_SII" we might
just check for sclp.has_siif. Everything else that performs the
lock/unlock should be contained in "struct kvm" directly, unless I am
missing something.

No you are right, ipte_lock/unlock are independent of the vcpu.
I already had a patch on this but I did not think about sclp.has_siif and it was still heavy.

I'm confused. We're allocating a __u16 to then free it again below? Why
not simply use a value on the stack like in kvm_s390_vm_get_migration()?

comes from the idea to bring up more information.
But done like this it has no point.

mtcr = kvm_s390_sca_get_mtcr(kvm);

yes, thanks.

Thanks a lot David,
