2008-01-30KVM: Move apic timer migration away from critical sectionAvi Kivity
Migrating the apic timer in the critical section is not very nice, and is absolutely horrible with the real-time port. Move migration to the regular vcpu execution path, triggered by a new bitflag. Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Fix unbounded preemption latencyAvi Kivity
When preparing to enter the guest, if an interrupt comes in while preemption is disabled but interrupts are still enabled, we miss a preemption point. Fix by explicitly checking whether we need to reschedule. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Initialize the mmu caches only after verifying cpu supportAvi Kivity
Otherwise we re-initialize the mmu caches, which will fail since the caches are already registered, which will cause us to deinitialize said caches. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Fix dirty page setting for pages removed from rmapIzik Eidus
Right now rmap_remove won't set the page as dirty if the shadow pte pointed to this page had write access and then it became readonly. This patches fixes that, by setting the page as dirty for spte changes from write to readonly access. Signed-off-by: Izik Eidus <izike@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: x86 emulator: Only allow VMCALL/VMMCALL trapped by #UDSheng Yang
When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it. After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the #UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem. In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall, then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.

2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Merge shadow level check in FNAME(fetch)Dong, Eddie
Remove the redundant level check when fetching shadow pte for present & non-present spte. Signed-off-by: Yaozu (Eddie) Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Move kvm_free_some_pages() into critical sectionAvi Kivity
If some other cpu steals mmu pages between our check and an attempt to allocate, we can run out of mmu pages. Fix by moving the check into the same critical section as the allocation. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Switch to mmu spinlockMarcelo Tosatti
Convert the synchronization of the shadow handling to a separate mmu_lock spinlock. Also guard fetch() by mmap_sem in read-mode to protect against alias and memslot changes. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Avoid calling gfn_to_page() in mmu_set_spte()Avi Kivity
Since gfn_to_page() is a sleeping function, and we want to make the core mmu spinlocked, we need to pass the page from the walker context (which can sleep) to the shadow context (which cannot). [marcelo: avoid recursive locking of mmap_sem] Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Add kvm_read_guest_atomic()Marcelo Tosatti
In preparation for a mmu spinlock, add kvm_read_guest_atomic() and use it in fetch() and prefetch_page(). Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Concurrent guest walkersMarcelo Tosatti
Do not hold kvm->lock mutex across the entire pagefault code, only acquire it in places where it is necessary, such as mmu hash list, active list, rmap and parent pte handling. Allow concurrent guest walkers by switching walk_addr() to use mmap_sem in read-mode. And get rid of the lockless __gfn_to_page.

2008-01-30KVM: Disable vapic support on Intel machines with FlexPriorityAvi Kivity
FlexPriority accelerates the tpr without any patching. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Accelerated apic supportAvi Kivity
This adds a mechanism for exposing the virtual apic tpr to the guest, and a protocol for letting the guest update the tpr without causing a vmexit if conditions allow (e.g. there is no interrupt pending with a higher priority than the new tpr). Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: local APIC TPR access reporting facilityAvi Kivity
Add a facility to report on accesses to the local apic tpr even if the local apic is emulated in the kernel. This is basically a hack that allows userspace to patch Windows which tends to bang on the tpr a lot. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-01-30KVM: Print data for unimplemented wrmsrAvi Kivity
This can help diagnosing what the guest is trying to do. In many cases we can get away with partial emulation of msrs. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2008-01-30KVM: Move kvm_vcpu_kick() to x86.cZhang Xiantao

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>
