The mutex->splinlock convertion alllows us to make some code simplifications.
As we can keep the lock longer, we don't have to release it and then
have to check if the environment has not been modified before re-taking it. We
can remove kvm->busy and kvm->memory_config_version.

SVM gets the DB and L bits for the cs by decoding the segment. This

invlpg shouldn't fetch the "src" address, since it may not be valid,
however SVM's "solution" which neuters emulation of all group 7
instruction is horrible and breaks kvm-lite. The simplest fix is to
put a special check in for invlpg.

Because lightweight exits (exits which don't involve userspace) are many
times faster than heavyweight exits, it makes sense to emulate high usage
devices in the kernel. The local APIC is one such device, especially for
Windows and for SMP, so we add an APIC model to kvm.
It also allows in-kernel host-side drivers to inject interrupts without
going through userspace.

Current kvm disables preemption while the new virtualization registers are
in use. This of course is not very good for latency sensitive workloads (one
use of virtualization is to offload user interface and other latency
insensitive stuff to a container, so that it is easier to analyze the
remaining workload). This patch re-enables preemption for kvm; preemption
is now only disabled when switching the registers in and out, and during
the switch to guest mode and back.

This patch converts the vcpus array in "struct kvm" to a pointer
array, and changes the "vcpu_create" and "vcpu_setup" hooks into one
"vcpu_create" call which does the allocation and initialization of the
vcpu (calling back into the kvm_vcpu_init core helper).

A guest context switch to an uncached cr3 can require allocation of

Move shadow page recycling to mmu_topup_memory_caches(), which is called

The memory slot management functions were oriented against vcpu 0, where
they should be kvm-wide. This causes hangs starting X on guest smp.
Fix by making the functions (and resultant tail in the mmu) non-vcpu-specific.
Unfortunately this reduces the efficiency of the mmu object cache a bit. We
may have to revisit this later.

We need to distinguish between large page shadows which have the nx bit set
and those which don't. The problem shows up when booting a newer smp Linux
kernel, where the trampoline page (which is in real mode, which uses the
same shadow pages as large pages) is using the same mapping as a kernel data
page, which is mapped using nx, causing kvm to spin on that page.

When a vcpu causes a shadow tlb entry to have reduced permissions, it
must also clear the tlb on remote vcpus. We do that by:
- setting a bit on the vcpu that requests a tlb flush before the next entry
- if the vcpu is currently executing, we send an ipi to make sure it
exits before we continue

MSR_EFER.LME/LMA bits are automatically save/restored by VMX
hardware, KVM only needs to save NX/SCE bits at time of heavy
weight VM Exit. But clearing NX bits in host envirnment may
cause system hang if the host page table is using EXB bits,
thus we leave NX bits as it is. If Host NX=1 and guest NX=0, we
can do guest page table EXB bits check before inserting a shadow
pte (though no guest is expecting to see this kind of gp fault).
If host NX=0, we present guest no Execute-Disable feature to guest,
thus no host NX=0, guest NX=1 combination.
This patch reduces raw vmexit time by ~27%.
