2009-06-10KVM: Use rsvd_bits_mask in load_pdptrs()Dong, Eddie
Also remove bit 5-6 from rsvd_bits_mask per latest SDM. Signed-off-by: Eddie Dong <Eddie.Dong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2009-03-24KVM: is_long_mode() should check for EFER.LMAAmit Shah
is_long_mode currently checks the LongModeEnable bit in EFER instead of the LongModeActive bit. This is wrong, but we survived this till now since it wasn't triggered. This breaks guests that go from long mode to compatibility mode. This is noticed on a solaris guest and fixes bug #1842160 Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-07-20KVM: MMU: Fix false flooding when a pte points to page tableAvi Kivity
The KVM MMU tries to detect when a speculative pte update is not actually used by demand fault, by checking the accessed bit of the shadow pte. If the shadow pte has not been accessed, we deem that page table flooded and remove the shadow page table, allowing further pte updates to proceed without emulation. However, if the pte itself points at a page table and only used for write operations, the accessed bit will never be set since all access will happen through the emulator. This is exactly what happens with kscand on old (2.4.x) HIGHMEM kernels. The kernel points a kmap_atomic() pte at a page table, and then proceeds with read-modify-write operations to look at the dirty and accessed bits. We get a false flood trigger on the kmap ptes, which results in the mmu spending all its time setting up and tearing down shadows. Fix by setting the shadow accessed bit on emulated accesses.

2008-05-04KVM: Add kvm_x86_ops get_tdp_level()Sheng Yang
The function get_tdp_level() provided the number of tdp level for EPT and NPT rather than the NPT specific macro. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-05-04KVM: MMU: Move some definitions to a header fileSheng Yang
Move some definitions to mmu.h in order to allow building common table entries between EPT and non-EPT. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: MMU: add TDP support to the KVM MMUJoerg Roedel
This patch contains the changes to the KVM MMU necessary for support of the Nested Paging feature in AMD Barcelona and Phenom Processors. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Move arch dependent files to new directory arch/x86/kvm/Avi Kivity
This paves the way for multiple architecture support. Note that while ioapic.c could potentially be shared with ia64, it is also moved. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
