      [PATCH] KVM: fix race between mmio reads and injected interrupts · cccf748b
      Avi Kivity 提交于
      The kvm mmio read path looks like:
      
       1. guest read faults
       2. kvm emulates read, calls emulator_read_emulated()
       3. fails as a read requires userspace help
       4. exit to userspace
       5. userspace emulates read, kvm sets vcpu->mmio_read_completed
       6. re-enter guest, fault again
       7. kvm emulates read, calls emulator_read_emulated()
       8. succeeds as vcpu->mmio_read_emulated is set
       9. instruction completes and guest is resumed
      
      A problem surfaces if the userspace exit (step 5) also requests an interrupt
      injection.  In that case, the guest does not re-execute the original
      instruction, but the interrupt handler.  The next time an mmio read is
      exectued (likely for a different address), step 3 will find
      vcpu->mmio_read_completed set and return the value read for the original
      instruction.
      
      The problem manifested itself in a few annoying ways:
      - little squares appear randomly on console when switching virtual terminals
      - ne2000 fails under nfs read load
      - rtl8139 complains about "pci errors" even though the device model is
        incapable of issuing them.
      
      Fix by skipping interrupt injection if an mmio read is pending.
      
      A better fix is to avoid re-entry into the guest, and re-emulating immediately
      instead.  However that's a bit more complex.

      [PATCH] KVM: add VM-exit profiling · 07031e14
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This adds the profile=kvm boot option, which enables KVM to profile VM
      exits.
      
      Use: "readprofile -m ./System.map | sort -n" to see the resulting
      output:
