      KVM: host side for eoi optimization · ae7a2a3f
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      Implementation of PV EOI using shared memory.
      This reduces the number of exits an interrupt
      causes as much as by half.
      
      The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory,
      that tells the guest that it does not need EOI.
      We set it before injecting an interrupt and clear
      before injecting a nested one. Guest tests it using
      a test and clear operation - this is necessary
      so that host can detect interrupt nesting -
      and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR.
      
      There's a new MSR to set the address of said register
      in guest memory. Otherwise not much changed:
      - Guest EOI is not required
      - Register is tested & ISR is automatically cleared on exit
      
      For testing results see description of previous patch
      'kvm_para: guest side for eoi avoidance'.

      KVM: rearrange injection cancelling code · d905c069
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      Each time we need to cancel injection we invoke same code
      (cancel_injection callback).  Move it towards the end of function using
      the familiar goto on error pattern.
      
      Will make it easier to do more cleanups for PV EOI.

      KVM: only sync when attention bits set · 5cfb1d5a
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      Commit eb0dc6d0368072236dcd086d7fdc17fd3c4574d4 introduced apic
      attention bitmask but kvm still syncs lapic unconditionally.
      As that commit suggested and in anticipation of adding more attention
      bits, only sync lapic if(apic_attention).

      Document the new EOI MSR. Couldn't decide whether this change belongs
      conceptually on guest or host side, so a separate patch.

      x86, bitops: note on __test_and_clear_bit atomicity · d0a69d63
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      __test_and_clear_bit is actually atomic with respect
      to the local CPU. Add a note saying that KVM on x86
      relies on this behaviour so people don't accidentaly break it.
      Also warn not to rely on this in portable code.

      KVM guest: guest side for eoi avoidance · ab9cf499
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory,
      that tells the guest that it does not need EOI.
      Guest tests it using a single est and clear operation - this is
      necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can
      skip the EOI MSR.
      
      I run a simple microbenchmark to show exit reduction
      (note: for testing, need to apply follow-up patch
      'kvm: host side for eoi optimization' + a qemu patch
       I posted separately, on host):

      KVM: optimize ISR lookups · 8680b94b
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      We perform ISR lookups twice: during interrupt
      injection and on EOI. Typical workloads only have
      a single bit set there. So we can avoid ISR scans by
      1. counting bits as we set/clear them in ISR
      2. on set, caching the injected vector number
      3. on clear, invalidating the cache
      
      The real purpose of this is enabling PV EOI
      which needs to quickly validate the vector.
      But non PV guests also benefit: with this patch,
      and without interrupt nesting, apic_find_highest_isr
      will always return immediately without scanning ISR.
