2008-10-15KVM: PIC: enhance IPI avoidanceMarcelo Tosatti
The PIC code makes little effort to avoid kvm_vcpu_kick(), resulting in unnecessary guest exits in some conditions. For example, if the timer interrupt is routed through the IOAPIC, IRR for IRQ 0 will get set but not cleared, since the APIC is handling the acks. This means that everytime an interrupt < 16 is triggered, the priority logic will find IRQ0 pending and send an IPI to vcpu0 (in case IRQ0 is not masked, which is Linux's case). Introduce a new variable isr_ack to represent the IRQ's for which the guest has been signalled / cleared the ISR. Use it to avoid more than one IPI per trigger-ack cycle, in addition to the avoidance when ISR is set in get_priority().

2008-10-15KVM: fix i8259 reset irq ackingMarcelo Tosatti
The irq ack during pic reset has three problems: - Ignores slave/master PIC, using gsi 0-8 for both. - Generates an ACK even if the APIC is in control. - Depends upon IMR being clear, which is broken if the irq was masked at the time it was generated. The last one causes the BIOS to hang after the first reboot of Windows installation, since PIT interrupts stop.

2008-10-15KVM: irq ack notificationMarcelo Tosatti
Based on a patch from: Ben-Ami Yassour <benami@il.ibm.com> which was based on a patch from: Amit Shah <amit.shah@qumranet.com> Notify IRQ acking on PIC/APIC emulation. The previous patch missed two things: - Edge triggered interrupts on IOAPIC - PIC reset with IRR/ISR set should be equivalent to ack (LAPIC probably needs something similar).

2008-07-20KVM: kvm_io_device: extend in_range() to manage len and write attributeLaurent Vivier
Modify member in_range() of structure kvm_io_device to pass length and the type of the I/O (write or read). This modification allows to use kvm_io_device with coalesced MMIO. Signed-off-by: Laurent Vivier <Laurent.Vivier@bull.net> 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>
