We now added a new set of clock-related msrs in replacement of the old ones. In theory, we could just try to use them and get a return value indicating they do not exist, due to our use of kvm_write_msr_save. However, kvm clock registration happens very early, and if we ever try to write to a non-existant MSR, we raise a lethal #GP, since our idt handlers are not in place yet. So this patch tests for a cpuid feature exported by the host to decide which set of msrs are supported.

Right now, we were using individual KVM_CAP entities to communicate userspace about which cpuids we support. This is suboptimal, since it generates a delay between the feature arriving in the host, and being available at the guest. A much better mechanism is to list para features in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID. This makes userspace automatically aware of what we provide. And if we ever add a new cpuid bit in the future, we have to do that again, which create some complexity and delay in feature adoption.

Avi pointed out a while ago that those MSRs falls into the pentium PMU range. So the idea here is to add new ones, and after a while, deprecate the old ones.

In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c, I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems. (to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation pvclock is based on. This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags, specially on multi-socket ones. Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion. Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen, but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism. A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue, however, that locking is not necessary. We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return, the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to. OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps. After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

This patch removes one padding byte and transform it into a flags field. New versions of guests using pvclock will query these flags upon each read. Flags, however, will only be interpreted when the guest decides to. It uses the pvclock_valid_flags function to signal that a specific set of flags should be taken into consideration. Which flags are valid are usually devised via HV negotiation.

This patch fixes a bug in the KVM efer-msr write path. If a guest writes to a reserved efer bit the set_efer function injects the #GP directly. The architecture dependent wrmsr function does not see this, assumes success and advances the rip. This results in a #GP in the guest with the wrong rip. This patch fixes this by reporting efer write errors back to the architectural wrmsr function. Signed-off-by: NJoerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Per document, for feature control MSR: Bit 1 enables VMXON in SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution of VMXON in SMX operation causes a general-protection exception. Bit 2 enables VMXON outside SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution of VMXON outside SMX operation causes a general-protection exception. This patch is to enable this kind of check with SMX for VMXON in KVM. Signed-off-by: NShane Wang <shane.wang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The recent changes to emulate string instructions without entering guest mode exposed a bug where pending interrupts are not properly reflected in ready_for_interrupt_injection. The result is that userspace overwrites a previously queued interrupt, when irqchip's are emulated in userspace. Fix by always updating state before returning to userspace.

This patch adds logic to kvm/x86 which allows to mark an injected exception as reinjected. This allows to remove an ugly hack from svm_complete_interrupts that prevented exceptions from being reinjected at all in the nested case. The hack was necessary because an reinjected exception into the nested guest could cause a nested vmexit emulation. But reinjected exceptions must not intercept. The downside of the hack is that a exception that in injected could get lost. This patch fixes the problem and puts the code for it into generic x86 files because. Nested-VMX will likely have the same problem and could reuse the code. Signed-off-by: NJoerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
