      KVM: x86: Fix lost interrupt on irr_pending race · f210f757
      Nadav Amit 提交于
      apic_find_highest_irr assumes irr_pending is set if any vector in APIC_IRR is
      set.  If this assumption is broken and apicv is disabled, the injection of
      interrupts may be deferred until another interrupt is delivered to the guest.
      Ultimately, if no other interrupt should be injected to that vCPU, the pending
      interrupt may be lost.
      
      commit 56cc2406 ("KVM: nVMX: fix "acknowledge interrupt on exit" when APICv
      is in use") changed the behavior of apic_clear_irr so irr_pending is cleared
      after setting APIC_IRR vector. After this commit, if apic_set_irr and
      apic_clear_irr run simultaneously, a race may occur, resulting in APIC_IRR
      vector set, and irr_pending cleared. In the following example, assume a single
      vector is set in IRR prior to calling apic_clear_irr:
      
      apic_set_irr				apic_clear_irr
      ------------				--------------
      apic->irr_pending = true;
      					apic_clear_vector(...);
      					vec = apic_search_irr(apic);
      					// => vec == -1
      apic_set_vector(...);
      					apic->irr_pending = (vec != -1);
      					// => apic->irr_pending == false
      
      Nonetheless, it appears the race might even occur prior to this commit:
      
      apic_set_irr				apic_clear_irr
      ------------				--------------
      apic->irr_pending = true;
      					apic->irr_pending = false;
      					apic_clear_vector(...);
      					if (apic_search_irr(apic) != -1)
      						apic->irr_pending = true;
      					// => apic->irr_pending == false
      apic_set_vector(...);
      
      Fixing this issue by:
      1. Restoring the previous behavior of apic_clear_irr: clear irr_pending, call
         apic_clear_vector, and then if APIC_IRR is non-zero, set irr_pending.
      2. On apic_set_irr: first call apic_set_vector, then set irr_pending.

      KVM: compute correct map even if all APICs are software disabled · a3e339e1
      Paolo Bonzini 提交于
      Logical destination mode can be used to send NMI IPIs even when all
      APICs are software disabled, so if all APICs are software disabled we
      should still look at the DFRs.
      
      So the DFRs should all be the same, even if some or all APICs are
      software disabled.  However, the SDM does not say this, so tweak
      the logic as follows:
      
      - if one APIC is enabled and has LDR != 0, use that one to build the map.
      This picks the right DFR in case an OS is only setting it for the
      software-enabled APICs, or in case an OS is using logical addressing
      on some APICs while leaving the rest in reset state (using LDR was
      suggested by Radim).
      
      - if all APICs are disabled, pick a random one to build the map.
      We use the last one with LDR != 0 for simplicity.

      KVM: x86: Software disabled APIC should still deliver NMIs · 173beedc
      Nadav Amit 提交于
      Currently, the APIC logical map does not consider VCPUs whose local-apic is
      software-disabled.  However, NMIs, INIT, etc. should still be delivered to such
      VCPUs. Therefore, the APIC mode should first be determined, and then the map,
      considering all VCPUs should be constructed.
      
      To address this issue, first find the APIC mode, and only then construct the
      logical map.

      The update_memslots invocation is only needed in one case.  Make
      the code clearer by moving it to __kvm_set_memory_region, and

      kvm: svm: move WARN_ON in svm_adjust_tsc_offset · d913b904
      Chris J Arges 提交于
      When running the tsc_adjust kvm-unit-test on an AMD processor with the
      IA32_TSC_ADJUST feature enabled, the WARN_ON in svm_adjust_tsc_offset can be
      triggered. This WARN_ON checks for a negative adjustment in case __scale_tsc
      is called; however it may trigger unnecessary warnings.
      
      This patch moves the WARN_ON to trigger only if __scale_tsc will actually be
      called from svm_adjust_tsc_offset. In addition make adj in kvm_set_msr_common
      s64 since this can have signed values.

      [The results were reproducible on all of Nehalem, Sandy Bridge and
       Ivy Bridge.  The slowness of manual switching is because writing
       to EFER with WRMSR triggers a TLB flush, even if the only bit you're
       touching is SCE (so the page table format is not affected).  Doing
       the write as part of vmentry/vmexit, instead, does not flush the TLB,
       probably because all processors that have EPT also have VPID. - Paolo]

      KVM: x86: Remove redundant and incorrect cpl check on task-switch · 2c2ca2d1
      Nadav Amit 提交于
      Task-switch emulation checks the privilege level prior to performing the
      task-switch.  This check is incorrect in the case of task-gates, in which the
      tss.dpl is ignored, and can cause superfluous exceptions.  Moreover this check
      is unnecassary, since the CPU checks the privilege levels prior to exiting.
      Intel SDM 25.4.2 says "If CALL or JMP accesses a TSS descriptor directly
      outside IA-32e mode, privilege levels are checked on the TSS descriptor" prior
      to exiting.  AMD 15.14.1 says "The intercept is checked before the task switch
      takes place but after the incoming TSS and task gate (if one was involved) have
      been checked for correctness."
      
      This patch removes the CPL checks for CALL and JMP.
