KVM: riscv: selftests: Add vector extension tests
Add vector related tests with the ISA extension standard template.
However, the vector registers are bit tricky as the register length is
variable based on vlenb value of the system. That's why the macros are
defined with a default and overidden with actual value at runtime.

KVM: riscv: selftests: Decode stval to identify exact exception type
Currently, the sbi_pmu_test continues if the exception type is illegal
instruction because access to hpmcounter will generate that. However
illegal instruction exception may occur due to the other reasons
which should result in test assertion.
Use the stval to decode the exact type of instructions and which csrs are
being accessed if it is csr access instructions. Assert in all cases
except if it is a csr access instructions that access valid PMU related
registers.
Take this opportunity to remove the CSR_CYCLEH reference as the test is
compiled for RV64 only.

KVM: riscv: selftests: Allow number of interrupts to be configurable
It is helpful to vary the number of the LCOFI interrupts generated
by the overflow test. Allow additional argument for overflow test
to accommodate that. It can be easily cross-validated with
/proc/interrupts output in the host.

KVM: riscv: selftests: Change command line option
The PMU test commandline option takes an argument to disable a
certain test. The initial assumption behind this was a common use case
is just to run all the test most of the time. However, running a single
test seems more useful instead. Especially, the overflow test has been
helpful to validate PMU virtualizaiton interrupt changes.
Switching the command line option to run a single test instead
of disabling a single test also allows to provide additional
test specific arguments to the test. The default without any options
remains unchanged which continues to run all the tests.

Merge patch series "riscv: Apply Zawrs when available"
Andrew Jones <ajones@ventanamicro.com> says:
Zawrs provides two instructions (wrs.nto and wrs.sto), where both are
meant to allow the hart to enter a low-power state while waiting on a
store to a memory location. The instructions also both wait an
implementation-defined "short" duration (unless the implementation
terminates the stall for another reason). The difference is that while
wrs.sto will terminate when the duration elapses, wrs.nto, depending on
configuration, will either just keep waiting or an ILL exception will be
raised. Linux will use wrs.nto, so if platforms have an implementation
which falls in the "just keep waiting" category (which is not expected),
then it should _not_ advertise Zawrs in the hardware description.
Like wfi (and with the same {m,h}status bits to configure it), when
wrs.nto is configured to raise exceptions it's expected that the higher
privilege level will see the instruction was a wait instruction, do
something, and then resume execution following the instruction. For
example, KVM does configure exceptions for wfi (hstatus.VTW=1) and
therefore also for wrs.nto. KVM does this for wfi since it's better to
allow other tasks to be scheduled while a VCPU waits for an interrupt.
For waits such as those where wrs.nto/sto would be used, which are
typically locks, it is also a good idea for KVM to be involved, as it
can attempt to schedule the lock holding VCPU.
This series starts with Christoph's addition of the riscv
smp_cond_load_relaxed function which applies wrs.sto when available.
That patch has been reworked to use wrs.nto and to use the same approach
as Arm for the wait loop, since we can't have arbitrary C code between
the load-reserved and the wrs. Then, hwprobe support is added (since the
instructions are also usable from usermode), and finally KVM is
taught about wrs.nto, allowing guests to see and use the Zawrs
extension.
We still don't have test results from hardware, and it's not possible to
prove that using Zawrs is a win when testing on QEMU, not even when
oversubscribing VCPUs to guests. However, it is possible to use KVM
selftests to force a scenario where we can prove Zawrs does its job and
does it well. [4] is a test which does this and, on my machine, without
Zawrs it takes 16 seconds to complete and with Zawrs it takes 0.25
seconds.
This series is also available here [1]. In order to use QEMU for testing
a build with [2] is needed. In order to enable guests to use Zawrs with
KVM using kvmtool, the branch at [3] may be used.
