2007-05-03KVM: Workaround vmx inability to virtualize the reset stateAvi Kivity
The reset state has cs.selector == 0xf000 and cs.base == 0xffff0000, which aren't compatible with vm86 mode, which is used for real mode virtualization. When we create a vcpu, we set cs.base to 0xf0000, but if we get there by way of a reset, the values are inconsistent and vmx refuses to enter guest mode. Workaround by detecting the state and munging it appropriately. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: MMU: Remove global pte trackingAvi Kivity
The initial, noncaching, version of the kvm mmu flushed the all nonglobal shadow page table translations (much like a native tlb flush). The new implementation flushes translations only when they change, rendering global pte tracking superfluous. This removes the unused tracking mechanism and storage space. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: MMU: Remove unnecessary check for pdptr accessAvi Kivity
We already special case the pdptr access, so no need to check it again. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Avoid guest virtual addresses in string pio userspace interfaceAvi Kivity
The current string pio interface communicates using guest virtual addresses, relying on userspace to translate addresses and to check permissions. This interface cannot fully support guest smp, as the check needs to take into account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a page boundary. Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there. The kernel manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks atomically by taking the appropriate locks. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Future-proof argument-less ioctlsAvi Kivity
Some ioctls ignore their arguments. By requiring them to be zero now, we allow a nonzero value to have some special meaning in the future. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Allow kernel to select size of mmap() bufferAvi Kivity
This allows us to store offsets in the kernel/user kvm_run area, and be sure that userspace has them mapped. As offsets can be outside the kvm_run struct, userspace has no way of knowing how much to mmap. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Add guest mode signal maskAvi Kivity
Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode. This allows signals to be used to interrupt a vcpu without requiring signal delivery to a userspace handler, which is quite expensive. Userspace still receives -EINTR and can get the signal via sigwait(). Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Initialize the apic_base msr on svm tooAvi Kivity
Older userspace didn't care, but newer userspace (with the cpuid changes) does. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Add a special exit reason when exiting due to an interruptAvi Kivity
This is redundant, as we also return -EINTR from the ioctl, but it allows us to examine the exit_reason field on resume without seeing old data. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Fold kvm_run::exit_type into kvm_run::exit_reasonAvi Kivity
Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has just two enumerations (and no need for more). So fold exit_type into exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Allow userspace to process hypercalls which have no kernel handlerAvi Kivity
This is useful for paravirtualized graphics devices, for example. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Add method to check for backwards-compatible API extensionsAvi Kivity

2007-05-03KVM: Remove the 'emulated' field from the userspace interfaceAvi Kivity
We no longer emulate single instructions in userspace. Instead, we service mmio or pio requests. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Handle cpuid in the kernel instead of punting to userspaceAvi Kivity
KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to return to the guest. We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel. We still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator, so that live migration can work). The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Do not communicate to userspace through cpu registers during PIOAvi Kivity
Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx (on string instructions). This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when they get kvm ports. So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace only an abstract description of the PIO to be done. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Use a shared page for kernel/user communication when runing a vcpuAvi Kivity
Instead of passing a 'struct kvm_run' back and forth between the kernel and userspace, allocate a page and allow the user to mmap() it. This reduces needless copying and makes the interface expandable by providing lots of free space. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-05-03KVM: Fix bogus sign extension in mmu mapping auditAvi Kivity
When auditing a 32-bit guest on a 64-bit host, sign extension of the page table directory pointer table index caused bogus addresses to be shown on audit errors. Fix by declaring the index unsigned. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-05-03KVM: Fix guest register corruption on paravirt hypercallDor Laor
The hypercall code mixes up the ->cache_regs() and ->decache_regs() callbacks, resulting in guest register corruption. Signed-off-by: Dor Laor <dor.laor@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-04-30libata: honour host controllers that want just one hostLinus Torvalds
The Marvell IDE interface on my machine would hit a BUG_ON() in lib/iomem.c because it was calling ata_pci_init_one() specifying just a single port on the host, but that would actually end up trying to initialize two ports, the second one with bogus information. This fixes "ata_pci_init_one()" so that it actually passes down the n_ports variable that it got from the low-level driver to the host allocation routine ("ata_host_alloc_pinfo()"), which results in the ATA layer actually having the correct port number information. And in order to make it all work, I also needed to fix a few places that had incorrectly hard-coded the fact that a host always had exactly two ports (both ata_pci_init_bmdma() and ata_request_legacy_irqs() would just always iterate over both ports).

2007-04-30power management: implement pm_ops.valid for everybodyJohannes Berg
Almost all users of pm_ops only support mem sleep, don't check in .valid and don't reject any others in .prepare so users can be confused if they check /sys/power/state, especially when new states are added (these would then result in s-t-r although they're supposed to be something different). This patch implements a generic pm_valid_only_mem function that is then exported for users and puts it to use in almost all existing pm_ops.

2007-04-30[BLOCK] Don't pin lots of memory in mempoolsJens Axboe
Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed 256 entry pre-allocation. There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.
