2008-06-24KVM: Make kvm host use the paravirt clocksource structsGerd Hoffmann
This patch updates the kvm host code to use the pvclock structs. It also makes the paravirt clock compatible with Xen. Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-05-04KVM: avoid fx_init() schedule in atomicAndrea Arcangeli
This make sure not to schedule in atomic during fx_init. I also changed the name of fpu_init to fx_finit to avoid duplicating the name with fpu_init that is already used in the kernel, this makes grep simpler if nothing else.

2008-04-27KVM: Rename VCPU_MP_STATE_* to KVM_MP_STATE_*Avi Kivity
We wish to export it to userspace, so move it into the kvm namespace. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: Add trace markersFeng (Eric) Liu
Trace markers allow userspace to trace execution of a virtual machine in order to monitor its performance. Signed-off-by: Feng (Eric) Liu <eric.e.liu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: SVM: add intercept for machine check exceptionJoerg Roedel
To properly forward a MCE occured while the guest is running to the host, we have to intercept this exception and call the host handler by hand. This is implemented by this patch. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: MMU: Don't assume struct page for x86Anthony Liguori
This patch introduces a gfn_to_pfn() function and corresponding functions like kvm_release_pfn_dirty(). Using these new functions, we can modify the x86 MMU to no longer assume that it can always get a struct page for any given gfn. We don't want to eliminate gfn_to_page() entirely because a number of places assume they can do gfn_to_page() and then kmap() the results. When we support IO memory, gfn_to_page() will fail for IO pages although gfn_to_pfn() will succeed. This does not implement support for avoiding reference counting for reserved RAM or for IO memory. However, it should make those things pretty straight forward. Since we're only introducing new common symbols, I don't think it will break the non-x86 architectures but I haven't tested those. I've tested Intel, AMD, NPT, and hugetlbfs with Windows and Linux guests.

2008-04-27KVM: function declaration parameter name cleanupJoerg Roedel
The kvm_host.h file for x86 declares the functions kvm_set_cr[0348]. In the header file their second parameter is named cr0 in all cases. This patch renames the parameters so that they match the function name. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-04-27KVM: MMU: unify slots_lock usageMarcelo Tosatti
Unify slots_lock acquision around vcpu_run(). This is simpler and less error-prone. Also fix some callsites that were not grabbing the lock properly.

2008-04-27KVM: MMU: hypercall based pte updates and TLB flushesMarcelo Tosatti
Hypercall based pte updates are faster than faults, and also allow use of the lazy MMU mode to batch operations. Don't report the feature if two dimensional paging is enabled.

2008-04-27KVM: MMU: large page supportMarcelo Tosatti
Create large pages mappings if the guest PTE's are marked as such and the underlying memory is hugetlbfs backed. If the largepage contains write-protected pages, a large pte is not used. Gives a consistent 2% improvement for data copies on ram mounted filesystem, without NPT/EPT. Anthony measures a 4% improvement on 4-way kernbench, with NPT.

2008-04-27KVM: MMU: ignore zapped root pagetablesMarcelo Tosatti
Mark zapped root pagetables as invalid and ignore such pages during lookup. This is a problem with the cr3-target feature, where a zapped root table fools the faulting code into creating a read-only mapping. The result is a lockup if the instruction can't be emulated.

2008-04-27KVM: paravirtualized clocksource: host partGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically. The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info structure.

2008-04-27KVM: export information about NPT to generic x86 codeJoerg Roedel
The generic x86 code has to know if the specific implementation uses Nested Paging. In the generic code Nested Paging is called Two Dimensional Paging (TDP) to avoid confusion with (future) TDP implementations of other vendors. This patch exports the availability of TDP to the generic x86 code. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2008-01-30KVM: x86 emulator: Only allow VMCALL/VMMCALL trapped by #UDSheng Yang
When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it. After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the #UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem. In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall, then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.

2008-01-30KVM: MMU: Avoid calling gfn_to_page() in mmu_set_spte()Avi Kivity
Since gfn_to_page() is a sleeping function, and we want to make the core mmu spinlocked, we need to pass the page from the walker context (which can sleep) to the shadow context (which cannot). [marcelo: avoid recursive locking of mmap_sem] Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
