      KVM: VMX: Return correct CPL during transition to protected mode · d881e6f6
      Avi Kivity 提交于
      In protected mode, the CPL is defined as the lower two bits of CS, as set by
      the last far jump.  But during the transition to protected mode, there is no
      last far jump, so we need to return zero (the inherited real mode CPL).
      
      Fix by reading CPL from the cache during the transition.  This isn't 100%
      correct since we don't set the CPL cache on a far jump, but since protected
      mode transition will always jump to a segment with RPL=0, it will always
      work.

      KVM: MMU: Force cr3 reload with two dimensional paging on mov cr3 emulation · e676505a
      Avi Kivity 提交于
      Currently the MMU's ->new_cr3() callback does nothing when guest paging
      is disabled or when two-dimentional paging (e.g. EPT on Intel) is active.
      This means that an emulated write to cr3 can be lost; kvm_set_cr3() will
      write vcpu-arch.cr3, but the GUEST_CR3 field in the VMCS will retain its
      old value and this is what the guest sees.
      
      This bug did not have any effect until now because:
      - with unrestricted guest, or with svm, we never emulate a mov cr3 instruction
      - without unrestricted guest, and with paging enabled, we also never emulate a
        mov cr3 instruction
      - without unrestricted guest, but with paging disabled, the guest's cr3 is
        ignored until the guest enables paging; at this point the value from arch.cr3
        is loaded correctly my the mov cr0 instruction which turns on paging
      
      However, the patchset that enables big real mode causes us to emulate mov cr3
      instructions in protected mode sometimes (when guest state is not virtualizable
      by vmx); this mov cr3 is effectively ignored and will crash the guest.
      
      The fix is to make nonpaging_new_cr3() call mmu_free_roots() to force a cr3
      reload.  This is awkward because now all the new_cr3 callbacks to the same
      thing, and because mmu_free_roots() is somewhat of an overkill; but fixing
      that is more complicated and will be done after this minimal fix.
      
      Observed in the Window XP 32-bit installer while bringing up secondary vcpus.

      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.

      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).

      __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.

      KVM: disable uninitialized var warning · 79f702a6
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      I see this in 3.5-rc1:
      
      arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c: In function ‘kvm_test_age_rmapp’:
      arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c:1271: warning: ‘iter.desc’ may be used uninitialized in this function
      
      The line in question was introduced by commit
      1e3f42f0
      
       static int kvm_test_age_rmapp(struct kvm *kvm, unsigned long *rmapp,
                                    unsigned long data)
       {
      -       u64 *spte;
      +       u64 *sptep;
      +       struct rmap_iterator iter;   <- line 1271
              int young = 0;
      
              /*
      
      The reason I think is that the compiler assumes that
      the rmap value could be 0, so
      
      static u64 *rmap_get_first(unsigned long rmap, struct rmap_iterator
      *iter)
      {
              if (!rmap)
                      return NULL;
      
              if (!(rmap & 1)) {
                      iter->desc = NULL;
                      return (u64 *)rmap;
              }
      
              iter->desc = (struct pte_list_desc *)(rmap & ~1ul);
              iter->pos = 0;
              return iter->desc->sptes[iter->pos];
      }
      
      will not initialize iter.desc, but the compiler isn't
      smart enough to see that
      
              for (sptep = rmap_get_first(*rmapp, &iter); sptep;
                   sptep = rmap_get_next(&iter)) {
      
      will immediately exit in this case.
      I checked by adding
              if (!*rmapp)
                      goto out;
      on top which is clearly equivalent but disables the warning.
      
      This patch uses uninitialized_var to disable the warning without
      increasing code size.
