2011-12-27KVM: Refactor and simplify kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuidSasha Levin
This patch cleans and simplifies kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuid by using a table instead of duplicating code as Avi suggested. This patch also fixes a bug where kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuid would return -E2BIG when amount of entries passed was just right.

2011-12-27KVM: Optimize dirty logging by rmap_write_protect()Takuya Yoshikawa
Currently, write protecting a slot needs to walk all the shadow pages and checks ones which have a pte mapping a page in it. The walk is overly heavy when dirty pages in that slot are not so many and checking the shadow pages would result in unwanted cache pollution. To mitigate this problem, we use rmap_write_protect() and check only the sptes which can be reached from gfns marked in the dirty bitmap when the number of dirty pages are less than that of shadow pages. This criterion is reasonable in its meaning and worked well in our test: write protection became some times faster than before when the ratio of dirty pages are low and was not worse even when the ratio was near the criterion. Note that the locking for this write protection becomes fine grained. The reason why this is safe is descripted in the comments.

This patch introduces __gfn_to_rmap() which takes the slot as an argument to avoid this. This is also needed for the following dirty logging optimization.

2011-12-27KVM: nVMX: Fix warning-causing idt-vectoring-info behaviorNadav Har'El
When L0 wishes to inject an interrupt while L2 is running, it emulates an exit to L1 with EXIT_REASON_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT. This was explained in the original nVMX patch 23, titled "Correct handling of interrupt injection". Unfortunately, it is possible (though rare) that at this point there is valid idt_vectoring_info in vmcs02. For example, L1 injected some interrupt to L2, and when L2 tried to run this interrupt's handler, it got a page fault - so it returns the original interrupt vector in idt_vectoring_info. The problem is that if this is the case, we cannot exit to L1 with EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT like we wished to, because the VMX spec guarantees that idt_vectoring_info and exit_reason_external_interrupt can never happen together. This is not just specified in the spec - a KVM L1 actually prints a kernel warning "unexpected, valid vectoring info" if we violate this guarantee, and some users noticed these warnings in L1's logs. In order to better emulate a processor, which would never return the external interrupt and the idt-vectoring-info together, we need to separate the two injection steps: First, complete L1's injection into L2 (i.e., enter L2, injecting to it the idt-vectoring-info); Second, after entry into L2 succeeds and it exits back to L0, exit to L1 with the EXIT_REASON_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT. Most of this is already in the code - the only change we need is to remain in L2 (and not exit to L1) in this case. Note that the previous patch ensures (by using KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT) that although we do enter L2 first, it will exit immediately after processing its injection, allowing us to promptly inject to L1. Note how we test vmcs12->idt_vectoring_info_field; This isn't really the vmcs12 value (we haven't exited to L1 yet, so vmcs12 hasn't been updated), but rather the place we save, at the end of vmx_vcpu_run, the vmcs02 value of this field. This was explained in patch 25 ("Correct handling of idt vectoring info") of the original nVMX patch series. Thanks to Dave Allan and to Federico Simoncelli for reporting this bug, to Abel Gordon for helping me figure out the solution, and to Avi Kivity for helping to improve it.

2011-12-27KVM: nVMX: Add KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXITNadav Har'El
This patch adds a new vcpu->requests bit, KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT. This bit requests that when next entering the guest, we should run it only for as little as possible, and exit again. We use this new option in nested VMX: When L1 launches L2, but L0 wishes L1 to continue running so it can inject an event to it, we unfortunately cannot just pretend to have run L2 for a little while - We must really launch L2, otherwise certain one-off vmcs12 parameters (namely, L1 injection into L2) will be lost. So the existing code runs L2 in this case. But L2 could potentially run for a long time until it exits, and the injection into L1 will be delayed. The new KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT allows us to request that L2 will be entered, as necessary, but will exit as soon as possible after entry. Our implementation of this request uses smp_send_reschedule() to send a self-IPI, with interrupts disabled. The interrupts remain disabled until the guest is entered, and then, after the entry is complete (often including processing an injection and jumping to the relevant handler), the physical interrupt is noticed and causes an exit. On recent Intel processors, we could have achieved the same goal by using MTF instead of a self-IPI. Another technique worth considering in the future is to use VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT and a highest-priority vector IPI - to slightly improve performance by avoiding the useless interrupt handler which ends up being called when smp_send_reschedule() is used.

2011-12-26KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuidJan Kiszka
Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants. This is broken in several ways: - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet; breaking it - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail. Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace. Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID. Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

Otherwise as the platform is in xapic mode, init/startup IPI's will consider only the low 8-bits and there is a possibility of re-sending init/startup IPI's to the logical cpu that is already online.

Currently "nox2apic" boot parameter was not enabling x2apic mode if the cpu, kernel are all capable of enabling x2apic mode and the OS handover happened in xapic mode. However If the bios enabled x2apic prior to OS handover, using "nox2apic" boot parameter had no effect. If the boot cpu's apicid is < 255, enable "nox2apic" boot parameter to disable the x2apic mode setup by the bios.

2011-12-23x86, x2apic: Fallback to xapic when BIOS doesn't setup interrupt-remappingYinghai Lu
On some of the recent Intel SNB platforms, by default bios is pre-enabling x2apic mode in the cpu with out setting up interrupt-remapping. This case was resulting in the kernel to panic as the cpu is already in x2apic mode but the OS was not able to enable interrupt-remapping (which is a pre-req for using x2apic capability). On these platforms all the apic-ids are < 255 and the kernel can fallback to xapic mode if the bios has not enabled interrupt-remapping (which is mostly the case if the bios has not exported interrupt-remapping tables to the OS).

2011-12-23x86, apic: Add probe() for apic_flatYinghai Lu
Currently we start with the default apic_flat mode and switch to some other apic model depending on the apic drivers acpi_madt_oem_check() routines and later followed by the apic drivers probe() routines. Once we selected non flat mode there was no case where we fall back to flat mode again. Upcoming changes allow bios-enabled x2apic mode to be disabled by the OS if interrupt-remapping etc is not setup properly by the bios. We now has a case for the apic to fall back to legacy flat mode during apic driver probe() seqeuence. Add a simple flat_probe() which allows the apic_flat mode to be the last fallback option.

2011-12-22percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variantsChristoph Lameter
We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of preemption and interrupt state. That has no material change for x86 and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations. However, arches that do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption. -tj: This is part of on-going percpu API cleanup.

2011-12-21driver-core: remove sysdev.h usage.Kay Sievers
The sysdev.h file should not be needed by any in-kernel code, so remove the .h file from these random files that seem to still want to include it. The sysdev code will be going away soon, so this include needs to be removed no matter what.
