2007-03-04KVM: Move kvmfs magic number to <linux/magic.h>Andrew Morton
Use the standard magic.h for kvmfs. Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-03-04KVM: Fix bogus failure in kvm.ko module initializationAvi Kivity
A bogus 'return r' can cause an otherwise successful module load to fail. This both denies users the use of kvm, and it also denies them the use of their machine, as it leaves a filesystem registered with its callbacks pointing into now-freed module memory. Fix by returning a zero like a good module. Thanks to Richard Lucassen <mailinglists@lucassen.org> (?) for reporting the problem and for providing access to a machine which exhibited it.

2007-03-04KVM: Remove write access permissions when dirty-page-logging is enabledUri Lublin
Enabling dirty page logging is done using KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl. If the memory region already exists, we need to remove write accesses, so writes will be caught, and dirty pages will be logged. Signed-off-by: Uri Lublin <uril@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Since dirty_bitmap is an unsigned long array, the alignment and size need to take that into account. Signed-off-by: Uri Lublin <uril@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-03-04KVM: Add missing calls to mark_page_dirty()Uri Lublin
A few places where we modify guest memory fail to call mark_page_dirty(), causing live migration to fail. This adds the missing calls. Signed-off-by: Uri Lublin <uril@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-03-04KVM: Per-vcpu inodesAvi Kivity
Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM. This has the following benefits: - the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on every ioctl() - the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived from the fd used to make the call Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects. But both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-03-04KVM: Rename some kvm_dev_ioctl_*() functions to kvm_vm_ioctl_*()Avi Kivity
This reflects the changed scope, from device-wide to single vm (previously every device open created a virtual machine). Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-03-04KVM: Create an inode per virtual machineAvi Kivity
This avoids having filp->f_op and the corresponding inode->i_fop different, which is a little unorthodox. The ioctl list is split into two: global kvm ioctls and per-vm ioctls. A new ioctl, KVM_CREATE_VM, is used to create VMs and return the VM fd. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-03-04KVM: Add internal filesystem for generating inodesAvi Kivity
The kvmfs inodes will represent virtual machines and vcpus, as necessary, reducing cacheline bouncing due to inodes and filps being shared. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: Convert i386 PDA code to use %fsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for per-processor data. This is because some processors show a small but measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is). On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable. Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much. This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to match the changed struct pt_regs.

Like the inline code it replaces, this function decaches the vmcs from the cpu it last executed on. in addition: - vcpu_clear() works if the last cpu is also the cpu we're running on - it is faster on larger smps by virtue of using smp_call_function_single() Includes fix from Ingo Molnar.

2007-01-26[PATCH] KVM: SVM: Propagate cpu shutdown events to userspaceJoerg Roedel
This patch implements forwarding of SHUTDOWN intercepts from the guest on to userspace on AMD SVM. A SHUTDOWN event occurs when the guest produces a triple fault (e.g. on reboot).

2007-01-26[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Report nx faults to the guestAvi Kivity
With the recent guest page fault change, we perform access checks on our own instead of relying on the cpu. This means we have to perform the nx checks as well.

2007-01-26[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Perform access checks in walk_addr()Avi Kivity
Check pte permission bits in walk_addr(), instead of scattering the checks all over the code. This has the following benefits: 1. We no longer set the accessed bit for accessed which fail permission checks. 2. Setting the accessed bit is simplified. 3. Under some circumstances, we used to pretend a page fault was fixed when it would actually fail the access checks. This caused an unnecessary vmexit. 4. The error code for guest page faults is now correct. The fix helps netbsd further along booting, and allows kvm to pass the new mmu testsuite.

2007-01-23[PATCH] KVM: fix bogus pagefault on writable pagesAvi Kivity
If a page is marked as dirty in the guest pte, set_pte_common() can set the writable bit on newly-instantiated shadow pte. This optimization avoids a write fault after the initial read fault. However, if a write fault instantiates the pte, fix_write_pf() incorrectly reports the fault as a guest page fault, and the guest oopses on what appears to be a correctly-mapped page. Fix is to detect the condition and only report a guest page fault on a user access to a kernel page. With the fix, a kvm guest can survive a whole night of running the kernel hacker's screensaver (make -j9 in a loop).

2007-01-23[PATCH] KVM: x86 emulator: fix bit string instructionsAvi Kivity
The various bit string instructions (bts, btc, etc.) fail to adjust the address correctly if the bit address is beyond BITS_PER_LONG. This bug creeped in as the emulator originally relied on cr2 to contain the memory address; however we now decode it from the mod r/m bits, and must adjust the offset to account for large bit indices. The patch is rather large because it switches src and dst decoding around, so that the bit index is available when decoding the memory address. This fixes workloads like the FC5 installer.
