2008-12-31KVM: MMU: Fix aliased gfns treated as unaliasedIzik Eidus
Some areas of kvm x86 mmu are using gfn offset inside a slot without unaliasing the gfn first. This patch makes sure that the gfn will be unaliased and add gfn_to_memslot_unaliased() to save the calculating of the gfn unaliasing in case we have it unaliased already.

2008-12-31KVM: Enable Function Level Reset for assigned deviceSheng Yang
Ideally, every assigned device should in a clear condition before and after assignment, so that the former state of device won't affect later work. Some devices provide a mechanism named Function Level Reset, which is defined in PCI/PCI-e document. We should execute it before and after device assignment. (But sadly, the feature is new, and most device on the market now don't support it. We are considering using D0/D3hot transmit to emulate it later, but not that elegant and reliable as FLR itself.) [Update: Reminded by Xiantao, execute FLR after we ensure that the device can be assigned to the guest.] Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2008-12-31KVM: VMX: Handle mmio emulation when guest state is invalidGuillaume Thouvenin
If emulate_invalid_guest_state is enabled, the emulator is called when guest state is invalid. Until now, we reported an mmio failure when emulate_instruction() returned EMULATE_DO_MMIO. This patch adds the case where emulate_instruction() failed and an MMIO emulation is needed.

2008-12-31KVM: allow emulator to adjust rip for emulated pio instructionsGuillaume Thouvenin
If we call the emulator we shouldn't call skip_emulated_instruction() in the first place, since the emulator already computes the next rip for us. Thus we move ->skip_emulated_instruction() out of kvm_emulate_pio() and into handle_io() (and the svm equivalent). We also replaced "return 0" by "break" in the "do_io:" case because now the shadow register state needs to be committed. Otherwise eip will never be updated.

This patch refactors the NMI watchdog delivery patch, consolidating tests and providing a proper API for delivering watchdog events.

2008-12-31KVM: VMX: work around lacking VNMI supportJan Kiszka
Older VMX supporting CPUs do not provide the "Virtual NMI" feature for tracking the NMI-blocked state after injecting such events. For now KVM is unable to inject NMIs on those CPUs. Derived from Sheng Yang's suggestion to use the IRQ window notification for detecting the end of NMI handlers, this patch implements virtual NMI support without impact on the host's ability to receive real NMIs. The downside is that the given approach requires some heuristics that can cause NMI nesting in vary rare corner cases. The approach works as follows: - inject NMI and set a software-based NMI-blocked flag - arm the IRQ window start notification whenever an NMI window is requested - if the guest exits due to an opening IRQ window, clear the emulated NMI-blocked flag - if the guest net execution time with NMI-blocked but without an IRQ window exceeds 1 second, force NMI-blocked reset and inject anyway This approach covers most practical scenarios: - succeeding NMIs are seperated by at least one open IRQ window - the guest may spin with IRQs disabled (e.g. due to a bug), but leaving the NMI handler takes much less time than one second - the guest does not rely on strict ordering or timing of NMIs (would be problematic in virtualized environments anyway) Successfully tested with the 'nmi n' monitor command, the kgdbts testsuite on smp guests (additional patches required to add debug register support to kvm) + the kernel's nmi_watchdog=1, and a Siemens- specific board emulation (+ guest) that comes with its own NMI watchdog mechanism.

2008-12-31KVM: VMX: Provide support for user space injected NMIsJan Kiszka
This patch adds the required bits to the VMX side for user space injected NMIs. As with the preexisting in-kernel irqchip support, the CPU must provide the "virtual NMI" feature for proper tracking of the NMI blocking state. Based on the original patch by Sheng Yang.

LINT0 of the LAPIC can be used to route PIT events as NMI watchdog ticks into the guest.

2008-12-31KVM: VMX: refactor IRQ and NMI window enablingJan Kiszka
do_interrupt_requests and vmx_intr_assist go different way for achieving the same: enabling the nmi/irq window start notification. Unify their code over enable_{irq|nmi}_window, get rid of a redundant call to enable_intr_window instead of direct enable_nmi_window invocation and unroll enable_intr_window for both in-kernel and user space irq injection accordingly.

2008-12-31KVM: VMX: refactor/fix IRQ and NMI injectability determinationJan Kiszka
There are currently two ways in VMX to check if an IRQ or NMI can be injected: - vmx_{nmi|irq}_enabled and - vcpu.arch.{nmi|interrupt}_window_open. Even worse, one test (at the end of vmx_vcpu_run) uses an inconsistent, likely incorrect logic. This patch consolidates and unifies the tests over {nmi|interrupt}_window_open as cache + vmx_update_window_states for updating the cache content.

2008-12-27sparseirq: work around compiler optimizing away __weak functionsYinghai Lu
Impact: fix panic on null pointer with sparseirq Some GCC versions seem to inline the weak global function, when that function is empty. Work it around, by making the functions return a (dummy) integer. Signed-off-by: Yinghai <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
