2011-01-12KVM: VMX: Optimize atomic EFER loadAvi Kivity
When NX is enabled on the host but not on the guest, we use the entry/exit msr load facility, which is slow. Optimize it to use entry/exit efer load, which is ~1200 cycles faster. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: SVM: copy instruction bytes from VMCBAndre Przywara
In case of a nested page fault or an intercepted #PF newer SVM implementations provide a copy of the faulting instruction bytes in the VMCB. Use these bytes to feed the instruction emulator and avoid the costly guest instruction fetch in this case.

2011-01-12KVM: cleanup emulate_instructionAndre Przywara
emulate_instruction had many callers, but only one used all parameters. One parameter was unused, another one is now hidden by a wrapper function (required for a future addition anyway), so most callers use now a shorter parameter list.

2011-01-12KVM: move complete_insn_gp() into x86.cAndre Przywara
move the complete_insn_gp() helper function out of the VMX part into the generic x86 part to make it usable by SVM. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: x86: fix CR8 handlingAndre Przywara
The handling of CR8 writes in KVM is currently somewhat cumbersome. This patch makes it look like the other CR register handlers and fixes a possible issue in VMX, where the RIP would be incremented despite an injected #GP.

2011-01-12KVM: VMX: add module parameter to avoid trapping HLT instructions (v5)Anthony Liguori
In certain use-cases, we want to allocate guests fixed time slices where idle guest cycles leave the machine idling. There are many approaches to achieve this but the most direct is to simply avoid trapping the HLT instruction which lets the guest directly execute the instruction putting the processor to sleep. Introduce this as a module-level option for kvm-vmx.ko since if you do this for one guest, you probably want to do it for all. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: VMX: Return 0 from a failed VMREADAvi Kivity
If we execute VMREAD during reboot we'll just skip over it. Instead of returning garbage, return 0, which has a much smaller chance of confusing the code. Otherwise we risk a flood of debug printk()s which block the reboot process if a serial console or netconsole is enabled. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: Add instruction-set-specific exit qualifications to kvm_exit traceAvi Kivity
The exit reason alone is insufficient to understand exactly why an exit occured; add ISA-specific trace parameters for additional information. Because fetching these parameters is expensive on vmx, and because these parameters are fetched even if tracing is disabled, we fetch the parameters via a callback instead of as traditional trace arguments. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: Record instruction set in kvm_exit tracepointAvi Kivity
exit_reason's meaning depend on the instruction set; record it so a trace taken on one machine can be interpreted on another. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: VMX: Fold __vmx_vcpu_run() into vmx_vcpu_run()Avi Kivity
cea15c2 ("KVM: Move KVM context switch into own function") split vmx_vcpu_run() to prevent multiple copies of the context switch from being generated (causing problems due to a label). This patch folds them back together again and adds the __noclone attribute to prevent the label from being duplicated. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: VMX: Inform user about INTEL_TXT dependencyShane Wang
Inform user to either disable TXT in the BIOS or do TXT launch with tboot before enabling KVM since some BIOSes do not set FEATURE_CONTROL_VMXON_ENABLED_OUTSIDE_SMX bit when TXT is enabled. Signed-off-by: Shane Wang <shane.wang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: VMX: Disallow NMI while blocked by STIAvi Kivity
While not mandated by the spec, Linux relies on NMI being blocked by an IF-enabling STI. VMX also refuses to enter a guest in this state, at least on some implementations. Disallow NMI while blocked by STI by checking for the condition, and requesting an interrupt window exit if it occurs.

2011-01-12KVM: handle exit due to INVD in VMXGleb Natapov
Currently the exit is unhandled, so guest halts with error if it tries to execute INVD instruction. Call into emulator when INVD instruction is executed by a guest instead. This instruction is not needed by ordinary guests, but firmware (like OpenBIOS) use it and fail. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: VMX: remove setting of shadow_base_ptes for EPTMarcelo Tosatti
The EPT present/writable bits use the same position as normal pagetable bits. Since direct_map passes ACC_ALL to mmu_set_spte, thus always setting the writable bit on sptes, use the generic PT_PRESENT shadow_base_pte. Also pass present/writable error code information from EPT violation to generic pagefault handler. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: Move KVM context switch into own functionAndi Kleen
gcc 4.5 with some special options is able to duplicate the VMX context switch asm in vmx_vcpu_run(). This results in a compile error because the inline asm sequence uses an on local label. The non local label is needed because other code wants to set up the return address. This patch moves the asm code into an own function and marks that explicitely noinline to avoid this problem. Better would be probably to just move it into an .S file. The diff looks worse than the change really is, it's all just code movement and no logic change.

2010-12-08KVM: SVM: Do not report xsave in supported cpuidJoerg Roedel
To support xsave properly for the guest the SVM module need software support for it. As long as this is not present do not report the xsave as supported feature in cpuid. As a side-effect this patch moves the bit() helper function into the x86.h file so that it can be used in svm.c too. KVM-Stable-Tag.

2010-11-17KVM: VMX: Fix host userspace gsbase corruptionAvi Kivity
We now use load_gs_index() to load gs safely; unfortunately this also changes MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE, which we managed separately. This resulted in confusion and breakage running 32-bit host userspace on a 64-bit kernel. Fix by - saving guest MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE before we we reload the host's gs - doing the host save/load unconditionally, instead of only when in guest long mode Things can be cleaned up further, but this is the minmal fix for now.

2010-11-17KVM: Correct ordering of ldt reload wrt fs/gs reloadAvi Kivity
If fs or gs refer to the ldt, they must be reloaded after the ldt. Reorder the code to that effect. Userspace code that uses the ldt with kvm is nonexistent, so this doesn't fix a user-visible bug. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

2010-10-24KVM: Non-atomic interrupt injectionAvi Kivity
Change the interrupt injection code to work from preemptible, interrupts enabled context. This works by adding a ->cancel_injection() operation that undoes an injection in case we were not able to actually enter the guest (this condition could never happen with atomic injection).

2010-10-24KVM: VMX: Parameterize vmx_complete_interrupts() for both exit and entryAvi Kivity
Currently vmx_complete_interrupts() can decode event information from vmx exit fields into the generic kvm event queues. Make it able to decode the information from the entry fields as well by parametrizing it. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2010-10-24KVM: VMX: Move real-mode interrupt injection fixup to vmx_complete_interrupts()Avi Kivity

2010-10-24KVM: VMX: Split up vmx_complete_interrupts()Avi Kivity
vmx_complete_interrupts() does too much, split it up: - vmx_vcpu_run() gets the "cache important vmcs fields" part - a new vmx_complete_atomic_exit() gets the parts that must be done atomically - a new vmx_recover_nmi_blocking() does what its name says - vmx_complete_interrupts() retains the event injection recovery code This helps in reducing the work done in atomic context. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2010-10-24KVM: Check for pending events before attempting injectionAvi Kivity
Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry, check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests. Sites that can trigger event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT: - interrupt, nmi window opening - ppr updates - i8259 output changes - local apic irr changes - rflags updates - gif flag set - event set on exit This improves non-injecting entry performance, and sets the stage for non-atomic injection.

2010-10-24KVM: x86: Drop vm_init_tscZachary Amsden
This is used only by the VMX code, and is not done properly; if the TSC is indeed backwards, it is out of sync, and will need proper handling in the logic at each and every CPU change.

Some guest device driver may leverage the "Non-Snoop" I/O, and explicitly WBINVD or CLFLUSH to a RAM space. Since migration may occur before WBINVD or CLFLUSH, we need to maintain data consistency either by: 1: flushing cache (wbinvd) when the guest is scheduled out if there is no wbinvd exit, or 2: execute wbinvd on all dirty physical CPUs when guest wbinvd exits.
