2007-07-16KVM: Fix x86 emulator writebackLuca Tettamanti
When the old value and new one are the same the emulator skips the write; this is undesirable when the destination is a MMIO area and the write shall be performed regardless of the previous value. This optimization breaks e.g. a Linux guest APIC compiled without X86_GOOD_APIC. Remove the check and perform the writeback stage in the emulation unless it's explicitly disabled (currently push and some 2 bytes instructions may disable the writeback).

2007-07-16KVM: VMX: Ensure vcpu time stamp counter is monotonousAvi Kivity
If the time stamp counter goes backwards, a guest delay loop can become infinite. This can happen if a vcpu is migrated to another cpu, where the counter has a lower value than the first cpu. Since we're doing an IPI to the first cpu anyway, we can use that to pick up the old tsc, and use that to calculate the adjustment we need to make to the tsc offset.

2007-07-16KVM: Flush remote tlbs when reducing shadow pte permissionsAvi Kivity
When a vcpu causes a shadow tlb entry to have reduced permissions, it must also clear the tlb on remote vcpus. We do that by: - setting a bit on the vcpu that requests a tlb flush before the next entry - if the vcpu is currently executing, we send an ipi to make sure it exits before we continue Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-07-16KVM: Fix adding an smp virtual machine to the vm listAvi Kivity

2007-07-16KVM: Fix vcpu freeing for guest smpAvi Kivity
A vcpu can pin up to four mmu shadow pages, which means the freeing loop will never terminate. Fix by first unpinning shadow pages on all vcpus, then freeing shadow pages. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-07-16KVM: Lazy guest cr3 switchingAvi Kivity
Switch guest paging context may require us to allocate memory, which might fail. Instead of wiring up error paths everywhere, make context switching lazy and actually do the switch before the next guest entry, where we can return an error if allocation fails.

2007-07-16KVM: MMU: Remove unused large page markerAvi Kivity

2007-07-16KVM: MMU: Don't cache guest access bits in the shadow page tableAvi Kivity
This was once used to avoid accessing the guest pte when upgrading the shadow pte from read-only to read-write. But usually we need to set the guest pte dirty or accessed bits anyway, so this wasn't really exploited. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: MMU: Simpify accessed/dirty/present/nx bit handlingAvi Kivity
Always set the accessed and dirty bit (since having them cleared causes a read-modify-write cycle), always set the present bit, and copy the nx bit from the guest. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Make shadow pte updates atomicAvi Kivity
With guest smp, a second vcpu might see partial updates when the first vcpu services a page fault. So delay all updates until we have figured out what the pte should look like. Note that on i386, this is still not completely atomic as a 64-bit write will be split into two on a 32-bit machine. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-07-16KVM: VMX: Avoid saving and restoring msr_efer on lightweight vmexitEddie Dong
MSR_EFER.LME/LMA bits are automatically save/restored by VMX hardware, KVM only needs to save NX/SCE bits at time of heavy weight VM Exit. But clearing NX bits in host envirnment may cause system hang if the host page table is using EXB bits, thus we leave NX bits as it is. If Host NX=1 and guest NX=0, we can do guest page table EXB bits check before inserting a shadow pte (though no guest is expecting to see this kind of gp fault). If host NX=0, we present guest no Execute-Disable feature to guest, thus no host NX=0, guest NX=1 combination. This patch reduces raw vmexit time by ~27%. Me: fix compile warnings on i386.

2007-07-16KVM: VMX: Avoid saving and restoring msrs on lightweight vmexitEddie Dong
In a lightweight exit (where we exit and reenter the guest without scheduling or exiting to userspace in between), we don't need various msrs on the host, and avoiding shuffling them around reduces raw exit time by 8%. i386 compile fix by Daniel Hecken <dh@bahntechnik.de>.

2007-07-16KVM: Avoid corrupting tr in real modeAvi Kivity
The real mode tr needs to be set to a specific tss so that I/O instructions can function. Divert the new tr values to the real mode save area from where they will be restored on transition to protected mode. This fixes some crashes on reboot when the bios accesses an I/O instruction.

2007-07-16KVM: VMX: Only reload guest msrs if they are already loadedAvi Kivity
If we set an msr via an ioctl() instead of by handling a guest exit, we have the host state loaded, so reloading the msrs would clobber host state instead of guest state. This fixes a host oops (and loss of a cpu) on a guest reboot. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-07-16KVM: Implement IA32_EBL_CR_POWERON msrMatthew Gregan
Attempting to boot the default 'bsd' kernel of OpenBSD 4.1 i386 in a guest fails early in the kernel init inside p3_get_bus_clock while trying to read the IA32_EBL_CR_POWERON MSR. KVM logs an 'unhandled MSR' message and the guest kernel faults. This patch is sufficient to allow OpenBSD to boot, after which it seems to run fine. I'm not sure if this is the correct solution for dealing with this particular MSR, but it works for me. Signed-off-by: Matthew Gregan <kinetik@flim.org> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
