The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer. The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires. When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU thread is unblocked. This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math (for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion) and a cheaper VMexit. This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs. [A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average latency from cyclictest. I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency from kvm-unit-tests, and measured - ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts just after programming the TSC deadline timer - ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case where the test busy waits. I removed the VMX bits from Yunhong's patch, to concentrate them in the next patch - Paolo] Signed-off-by: NYunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The new created_vcpus field makes it possible to avoid the race between irqchip and VCPU creation in a much nicer way; just check under kvm->lock whether a VCPU has already been created. We can then remove KVM_APIC_ARCHITECTURE too, because at this point the symbol is only governing the default definition of kvm_vcpu_compatible. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The syzkaller folks reported a NULL pointer dereference that seems to be cause by a race between KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP and KVM_CREATE_PIT2. The former takes kvm->lock (except when registering the devices, which needs kvm->slots_lock); the latter takes kvm->slots_lock only.

If the processor exits to KVM while delivering an interrupt, the hypervisor then requeues the interrupt for the next vmentry. Trying to enter SMM in this same window causes to enter non-root mode in emulated SMM (i.e. with IF=0) and with a request to inject an IRQ (i.e. with a valid VM-entry interrupt info field). This is invalid guest state (SDM 26.3.1.4 "Check on Guest RIP and RFLAGS") and the processor fails vmentry. The fix is to defer the injection from KVM_REQ_SMI to KVM_REQ_EVENT, like we already do for e.g. NMIs. This patch doesn't change the name of the process_smi function so that it can be applied to stable releases. The next patch will modify the names so that process_nmi and process_smi handle respectively KVM_REQ_NMI and KVM_REQ_SMI. This is especially common with Windows, probably due to the self-IPI trick that it uses to deliver deferred procedure calls (DPCs).

Intel CPUs having Turbo Boost feature implement an MSR to provide a control interface via rdmsr/wrmsr instructions. One could detect the presence of this feature by issuing one of these instructions and handling the #GP exception which is generated in case the referenced MSR is not implemented by the CPU. KVM's vCPU model behaves exactly as a real CPU in this case by injecting a fault when MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL is called (which KVM does not support). However, some operating systems use this register during an early boot stage in which their kernel is not capable of handling #GP correctly, causing #DP and finally a triple fault effectively resetting the vCPU. This patch implements a dummy handler for MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL to avoid the crashes. Signed-off-by: NDmitry Bilunov <kmeaw@yandex-team.ru> Signed-off-by: NRadim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com>

In theory, nothing prevents the compiler from write-tearing PTEs, or split PTE writes. These partially-modified PTEs can be fetched by other cores and cause mayhem. I have not really encountered such case in real-life, but it does seem possible. For example, the compiler may try to do something creative for kvm_set_pte_rmapp() and perform multiple writes to the PTE.

The function to update APICv on/off state (in particular, to deactivate it when enabling Hyper-V SynIC) is incomplete: it doesn't adjust APICv-related fields among secondary processor-based VM-execution controls. As a result, Windows 2012 guests get stuck when SynIC-based auto-EOI interrupt intersected with e.g. an IPI in the guest. In addition, the MSR intercept bitmap isn't updated every time "virtualize x2APIC mode" is toggled. This path can only be triggered by a malicious guest, because Windows didn't use x2APIC but rather their own synthetic APIC access MSRs; however a guest running in a SynIC-enabled VM could switch to x2APIC and thus obtain direct access to host APIC MSRs (CVE-2016-4440). The patch fixes those omissions.

MSR 0x2f8 accessed the 124th Variable Range MTRR ever since MTRR support was introduced by 9ba075a6 ("KVM: MTRR support"). 0x2f8 became harmful when 910a6aae ("KVM: MTRR: exactly define the size of variable MTRRs") shrinked the array of VR MTRRs from 256 to 8, which made access to index 124 out of bounds. The surrounding code only WARNs in this situation, thus the guest gained a limited read/write access to struct kvm_arch_vcpu. 0x2f8 is not a valid VR MTRR MSR, because KVM has/advertises only 16 VR MTRR MSRs, 0x200-0x20f. Every VR MTRR is set up using two MSRs, 0x2f8 was treated as a PHYSBASE and 0x2f9 would be its PHYSMASK, but 0x2f9 was not implemented in KVM, therefore 0x2f8 could never do anything useful and getting rid of it is safe.

Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough. This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests. This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls. For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll. This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor, we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though. This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP while still providing a proper speedup. This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

The kbuild test robot reported this objtool warning [1]: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: fastop()+0x69: call without frame pointer save/setup The issue seems to be caused by CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES. With that option, for some reason gcc decides not to create a stack frame in fastop() before doing the inline asm call, which can result in a bad stack trace. Force a stack frame to be created if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled by listing the stack pointer as an output operand for the inline asm statement. This change has no effect for !CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES.

After the THP refcounting change, obtaining a compound pages from get_user_pages() no longer allows us to assume the entire compound page is immediately mappable from a secondary MMU. A secondary MMU doesn't want to call get_user_pages() more than once for each compound page, in order to know if it can map the whole compound page. So a secondary MMU needs to know from a single get_user_pages() invocation when it can map immediately the entire compound page to avoid a flood of unnecessary secondary MMU faults and spurious atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() (pages don't have to be pinned by MMU notifier users). Ideally instead of the page->_mapcount < 1 check, get_user_pages() should return the granularity of the "page" mapping in the "mm" passed to get_user_pages(). However it's non trivial change to pass the "pmd" status belonging to the "mm" walked by get_user_pages up the stack (up to the caller of get_user_pages). So the fix just checks if there is not a single pte mapping on the page returned by get_user_pages, and in turn if the caller can assume that the whole compound page is mapped in the current "mm" (in a pmd_trans_huge()). In such case the entire compound page is safe to map into the secondary MMU without additional get_user_pages() calls on the surrounding tail/head pages. In addition of being faster, not having to run other get_user_pages() calls also reduces the memory footprint of the secondary MMU fault in case the pmd split happened as result of memory pressure. Without this fix after a MADV_DONTNEED (like invoked by QEMU during postcopy live migration or balloning) or after generic swapping (with a failure in split_huge_page() that would only result in pmd splitting and not a physical page split), KVM would map the whole compound page into the shadow pagetables, despite regular faults or userfaults (like UFFDIO_COPY) may map regular pages into the primary MMU as result of the pte faults, leading to the guest mode and userland mode going out of sync and not working on the same memory at all times. Any other secondary MMU notifier manager (KVM is just one of the many MMU notifier users) will need the same information if it doesn't want to run a flood of get_user_pages_fast and it can support multiple granularity in the secondary MMU mappings, so I think it is justified to be exposed not just to KVM. The other option would be to move transparent_hugepage_adjust to mm/huge_memory.c but that currently has all kind of KVM data structures in it, so it's definitely not a cut-and-paste work, so I couldn't do a fix as cleaner as this one for 4.6.

Guest should only trust data to be valid when version haven't changed before and after reads of steal time. Besides not changing, it has to be an even number. Hypervisor may write an odd number to version field to indicate that an update is in progress. kvm_steal_clock() in guest has already done the read side, make write side in hypervisor more robust by following the above rule.

Commit d28bc9dd reversed the order of two lines which initialize cr0, allowing the current (old) cr0 value to mess up vcpu initialization. This was observed in the checks for cr0 X86_CR0_WP bit in the context of kvm_mmu_reset_context(). Besides, setting vcpu->arch.cr0 after vmx_set_cr0() is completely redundant. Change the order back to ensure proper vcpu initialization. The combination of booting with ovmf firmware when guest vcpus > 1 and kvm's ept=N option being set results in a VM-entry failure. This patch fixes that.

Unlike ds and es, these are base addresses, not selectors. Rename them so their meaning is more obvious. On x86_32, the field is still called fs. Fixing that could make sense as a future cleanup.

Some versions of Intel PT do not support tracing across VMXON, more specifically, VMXON will clear TraceEn control bit and any attempt to set it before VMXOFF will throw a #GP, which in the current state of things will crash the kernel. Namely: $ perf record -e intel_pt// kvm -nographic on such a machine will kill it. To avoid this, notify the intel_pt driver before VMXON and after VMXOFF so that it knows when not to enable itself.

kvm_make_request and kvm_check_request imply a producer-consumer relationship; add implicit memory barriers to them. There was indeed already a place that was adding an explicit smp_mb() to order between kvm_check_request and the processing of the request. That memory barrier can be removed (as an added benefit, kvm_check_request can use smp_mb__after_atomic which is free on x86). Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The obsolete sp should not be used on current vCPUs and should not hurt vCPU's running, so skip it from for_each_gfn_sp() and for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp() The side effort is we will double check role.invalid in kvm_mmu_get_page() but i think it is okay as role is well cached Signed-off-by: NXiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Since accumulate_steal_time is now only called in record_steal_time, it doesn't quite make sense to put the delta calculation in a separate function. The function could be called thousands of times before guest enables the steal time MSR (though the compiler may optimize out this function call). And after it's enabled, the MSR enable bit is tested twice every time. Removing the accumulate_steal_time function also avoids the necessity of having the accum_steal field.
