KVM: selftests: Define _GNU_SOURCE for all selftests code

Define _GNU_SOURCE is the base CFLAGS instead of relying on selftests to
manually #define _GNU_SOURCE, which is repetitive and error prone.

KVM: selftests: Define _GNU_SOURCE for all selftests code

Define _GNU_SOURCE is the base CFLAGS instead of relying on selftests to
manually #define _GNU_SOURCE, which is repetitive and error prone. E.g.
kselftest_harness.h requires _GNU_SOURCE for asprintf(), but if a selftest
includes kvm_test_harness.h after stdio.h, the include guards result in
the effective version of stdio.h consumed by kvm_test_harness.h not
defining asprintf():

In file included from x86_64/fix_hypercall_test.c:12:
In file included from include/kvm_test_harness.h:11:
../kselftest_harness.h:1169:2: error: call to undeclared function
'asprintf'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations
[-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
1169 | asprintf(&test_name, "%s%s%s.%s", f->name,
| ^

When including the rseq selftest's "library" code, #undef _GNU_SOURCE so
that rseq.c controls whether or not it wants to build with _GNU_SOURCE.

KVM: selftests: Generalize check_clocksource() from kvm_clock_test

Several existing x86 selftests need to check that the underlying system
clocksource is TSC or based on TSC but every test implements its own
check. As a first step towards unification, extract check_clocksource()
from kvm_clock_test and split it into two functions: arch-neutral
'sys_get_cur_clocksource()' and x86-specific 'sys_clocksource_is_tsc()'.
Fix a couple of pre-existing issues in kvm_clock_test: memory leakage in
check_clocksource() and using TEST_ASSERT() instead of TEST_REQUIRE().
The change also makes the test fail when system clocksource can't be read
from sysfs.

The original author of aarch64/get-reg-list.c (me) was wearing
tunnel vision goggles when implementing str_with_index(). There's
no reason to have such a special case string function. Instead,
take inspiration from glib and implement strdup_printf. The
implementation builds on vasprintf() which requires _GNU_SOURCE,
but we require _GNU_SOURCE in most files already.

selftests: KVM: skip hugetlb tests if huge pages are not available

Right now, if KVM memory stress tests are run with hugetlb sources but hugetlb is
not available (either in the kernel or because /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages is 0)
the test will fail with a memory allocation error.

This makes it impossible to add tests that default to hugetlb-backed memory,
because on a machine with a default configuration they will fail. Therefore,
check HugePages_Total as well and, if zero, direct the user to enable hugepages
in procfs. Furthermore, return KSFT_SKIP whenever hugetlb is not available.

KVM: selftests: Refactor help message for -s backing_src

All selftests that support the backing_src option were printing their
own description of the flag and then calling backing_src_help() to dump
the list of available backing sources. Consolidate the flag printing in
backing_src_help() to align indentation, reduce duplicated strings, and
improve consistency across tests.

Note: Passing "-s" to backing_src_help is unnecessary since every test
uses the same flag. However I decided to keep it for code readability
at the call sites.

While here this opportunistically fixes the incorrectly interleaved
printing -x help message and list of backing source types in
dirty_log_perf_test.

"anon_flags" and "anon_huge_flags" into more stable macros.

KVM: selftests: refactor vm_mem_backing_src_type flags

Each struct vm_mem_backing_src_alias has a flags field, which denotes
the flags used to mmap() an area of that type. Previously, this field
never included MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, because
vm_userspace_mem_region_add assumed that *all* types would always use
those flags, and so it hardcoded them.

In a follow-up commit, we'll add a new type: shmem. Areas of this type
must not have MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, and instead they must have
MAP_SHARED.

So, refactor things. Make it so that the flags field of
struct vm_mem_backing_src_alias really is a complete set of flags, and
don't add in any extras in vm_userspace_mem_region_add. This will let us
easily tack on shmem.

So it makes sense to add a helper to get the transparent hugepage size.

With VM_MEM_SRC_ANONYMOUS_THP specified in vm_userspace_mem_region_add(),
we now stat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage to check whether THP is

KVM: selftests: Introduce the dirty log perf test

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.

KVM: selftests: Simplify demand_paging_test with timespec_diff_now

Add a helper function to get the current time and return the time since
a given start time. Use that function to simplify the timekeeping in the
demand paging test.

Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64

KVM: selftests: Rework timespec functions and usage

The steal_time test's timespec stop condition was wrong and should have
used the timespec functions instead to avoid being wrong, but
timespec_diff had a strange interface. Rework all the timespec API and
its use.

KVM: selftests: Introduce steal-time test

The steal-time test confirms what is reported to the guest as stolen
time is consistent with the run_delay reported for the VCPU thread
on the host. Both x86_64 and AArch64 have the concept of steal/stolen
time so this test is introduced for both architectures.

While adding the test we ensure .gitignore has all tests listed
(it was missing s390x/resets) and that the Makefile has all tests
listed in alphabetical order (not really necessary, but it almost
was already...). We also extend the common API with a new num-guest-
pages call and a new timespec call.
