2009-09-10KVM: PIT support for HPET legacy modeBeth Kon
When kvm is in hpet_legacy_mode, the hpet is providing the timer interrupt and the pit should not be. So in legacy mode, the pit timer is destroyed, but the *state* of the pit is maintained. So if kvm or the guest tries to modify the state of the pit, this modification is accepted, *except* that the timer isn't actually started. When we exit hpet_legacy_mode, the current state of the pit (which is up to date since we've been accepting modifications) is used to restart the pit timer. The saved_mode code in kvm_pit_load_count temporarily changes mode to 0xff in order to destroy the timer, but then restores the actual value, again maintaining "current" state of the pit for possible later reenablement.

2009-09-10KVM: Add MCE supportHuang Ying
The related MSRs are emulated. MCE capability is exported via extension KVM_CAP_MCE and ioctl KVM_X86_GET_MCE_CAP_SUPPORTED. A new vcpu ioctl command KVM_X86_SETUP_MCE is used to setup MCE emulation such as the mcg_cap. MCE is injected via vcpu ioctl command KVM_X86_SET_MCE. Extended machine-check state (MCG_EXT_P) and CMCI are not implemented. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2009-06-10KVM: Enable MSI-X for KVM assigned deviceSheng Yang
This patch finally enable MSI-X. What we need for MSI-X: 1. Intercept one page in MMIO region of device. So that we can get guest desired MSI-X table and set up the real one. Now this have been done by guest, and transfer to kernel using ioctl KVM_SET_MSIX_NR and KVM_SET_MSIX_ENTRY. 2. Information for incoming interrupt. Now one device can have more than one interrupt, and they are all handled by one workqueue structure. So we need to identify them. The previous patch enable gsi_msg_pending_bitmap get this done. 3. Mapping from host IRQ to guest gsi as well as guest gsi to real MSI/MSI-X message address/data. We used same entry number for the host and guest here, so that it's easy to find the correlated guest gsi. What we lack for now: 1. The PCI spec said nothing can existed with MSI-X table in the same page of MMIO region, except pending bits. The patch ignore pending bits as the first step (so they are always 0 - no pending). 2. The PCI spec allowed to change MSI-X table dynamically. That means, the OS can enable MSI-X, then mask one MSI-X entry, modify it, and unmask it. The patch didn't support this, and Linux also don't work in this way. 3. The patch didn't implement MSI-X mask all and mask single entry. I would implement the former in driver/pci/msi.c later. And for single entry, userspace should have reposibility to handle it. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2009-03-24KVM: Avoid using CONFIG_ in userspace visible headersAvi Kivity
Kconfig symbols are not available in userspace, and are not stripped by headers-install. Avoid their use by adding #defines in <asm/kvm.h> to suit each architecture. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2009-03-24KVM: PIT: provide an option to disable interrupt reinjectionMarcelo Tosatti
Certain clocks (such as TSC) in older 2.6 guests overaccount for lost ticks, causing severe time drift. Interrupt reinjection magnifies the problem. Provide an option to disable it. [avi: allow room for expansion in case we want to disable reinjection of other timers] Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2009-03-24KVM: New guest debug interfaceJan Kiszka
This rips out the support for KVM_DEBUG_GUEST and introduces a new IOCTL instead: KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. The IOCTL payload consists of a generic part, controlling the "main switch" and the single-step feature. The arch specific part adds an x86 interface for intercepting both types of debug exceptions separately and re-injecting them when the host was not interested. Moveover, the foundation for guest debugging via debug registers is layed. To signal breakpoint events properly back to userland, an arch-specific data block is now returned along KVM_EXIT_DEBUG. For x86, the arch block contains the PC, the debug exception, and relevant debug registers to tell debug events properly apart. The availability of this new interface is signaled by KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. Empty stubs for not yet supported archs are provided. Note that both SVM and VTX are supported, but only the latter was tested yet. Based on the experience with all those VTX corner case, I would be fairly surprised if SVM will work out of the box.
