When a vcpu is migrated from one cpu to another, its timestamp counter may lose its monotonic property if the host has unsynced timestamp counters. This can confuse the guest, sometimes to the point of refusing to boot. As the rdtsc instruction is rather fast on AMD processors (7-10 cycles), we can simply record the last host tsc when we drop the cpu, and adjust the vcpu tsc offset when we detect that we've migrated to a different cpu.

This patch forbids the guest to execute monitor/mwait instructions on SVM. This is necessary because the guest can execute these instructions if they are available even if the kvm cpuid doesn't report its existence.

set_cr0_no_modeswitch() was a hack to avoid corrupting segment registers. As we now cache the protected mode values on entry to real mode, this isn't an issue anymore, and it interferes with reboot (which usually _is_ a modeswitch). Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

The current string pio interface communicates using guest virtual addresses, relying on userspace to translate addresses and to check permissions. This interface cannot fully support guest smp, as the check needs to take into account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a page boundary. Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there. The kernel manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks atomically by taking the appropriate locks. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has just two enumerations (and no need for more). So fold exit_type into exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to return to the guest. We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel. We still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator, so that live migration can work). The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx (on string instructions). This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when they get kvm ports. So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace only an abstract description of the PIO to be done. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

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: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

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.

Hardware virtualization implementations allow the guests to freely change some of the bits in cr0 and cr4, but trap when changing the other bits. This is useful to avoid excessive exits due to changing, for example, the ts flag. It also means the kvm's copy of cr0 and cr4 may be stale with respect to these bits. most of the time this doesn't matter as these bits are not very interesting. Other times, however (for example when returning cr0 to userspace), they are, so get the fresh contents of these bits from the guest by means of a new arch operation.

The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under the following circumstances: - if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear, or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction). Userspace can check rflags, but the other cases or not testable under the current API. - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably never happens under normal guests. - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that it can be handled by the host. In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest. This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.
