Currently, MSI messages can only be injected to in-kernel irqchips by defining a corresponding IRQ route for each message. This is not only unhandy if the MSI messages are generated "on the fly" by user space, IRQ routes are a limited resource that user space has to manage carefully. By providing a direct injection path, we can both avoid using up limited resources and simplify the necessary steps for user land.

MMIO that are split across a page boundary are currently broken - the code does not expect to be aborted by the exit to userspace for the first MMIO fragment. This patch fixes the problem by generalizing the current code for handling 16-byte MMIOs to handle a number of "fragments", and changes the MMIO code to create those fragments.

Intel spec says that TMR needs to be set/cleared when IRR is set, but kvm also clears it on EOI. I did some tests on a real (AMD based) system, and I see same TMR values both before and after EOI, so I think it's a minor bug in kvm. This patch fixes TMR to be set/cleared on IRR set only as per spec. And now that we don't clear TMR, we can save an atomic read of TMR on EOI that's not propagated to ioapic, by checking whether ioapic needs a specific vector first and calculating the mode afterwards.

Iteration using rmap_next(), the actual body is pte_list_next(), is inefficient: every time we call it we start from checking whether rmap holds a single spte or points to a descriptor which links more sptes. In the case of shadow paging, this quadratic total iteration cost is a problem. Even for two dimensional paging, with EPT/NPT on, in which we almost always have a single mapping, the extra checks at the end of the iteration should be eliminated. This patch fixes this by introducing rmap_iterator which keeps the iteration context for the next search. Furthermore the implementation of rmap_next() is splitted into two functions, rmap_get_first() and rmap_get_next(), to avoid repeatedly checking whether the rmap being iterated on has only one spte. Although there seemed to be only a slight change for EPT/NPT, the actual improvement was significant: we observed that GET_DIRTY_LOG for 1GB dirty memory became 15% faster than before. This is probably because the new code is easy to make branch predictions. Note: we just remove pte_list_next() because we can think of parent_ptes as a reverse mapping.

We have PTE_LIST_EXT + 1 pointers in this structure and these 40/20 bytes do not fit cache lines well. Furthermore, some allocators may use 64/32-byte objects for the pte_list_desc cache. This patch solves this problem by changing PTE_LIST_EXT from 4 to 3. For shadow paging, the new size is still large enough to hold both the kernel and process mappings for usual anonymous pages. For file mappings, there may be a slight change in the cache usage. Note: with EPT/NPT we almost always have a single spte in each reverse mapping and we will not see any change by this.

We have seen some problems of the current implementation of get_dirty_log() which uses synchronize_srcu_expedited() for updating dirty bitmaps; e.g. it is noticeable that this sometimes gives us ms order of latency when we use VGA displays. Furthermore the recent discussion on the following thread "srcu: Implement call_srcu()" http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/31/211 also motivated us to implement get_dirty_log() without SRCU. This patch achieves this goal without sacrificing the performance of both VGA and live migration: in practice the new code is much faster than the old one unless we have too many dirty pages. Implementation: The key part of the implementation is the use of xchg() operation for clearing dirty bits atomically. Since this allows us to update only BITS_PER_LONG pages at once, we need to iterate over the dirty bitmap until every dirty bit is cleared again for the next call. Although some people may worry about the problem of using the atomic memory instruction many times to the concurrently accessible bitmap, it is usually accessed with mmu_lock held and we rarely see concurrent accesses: so what we need to care about is the pure xchg() overheads. Another point to note is that we do not use for_each_set_bit() to check which ones in each BITS_PER_LONG pages are actually dirty. Instead we simply use __ffs() in a loop. This is much faster than repeatedly call find_next_bit(). Performance: The dirty-log-perf unit test showed nice improvements, some times faster than before, except for some extreme cases; for such cases the speed of getting dirty page information is much faster than we process it in the userspace. For real workloads, both VGA and live migration, we have observed pure improvements: when the guest was reading a file during live migration, we originally saw a few ms of latency, but with the new method the latency was less than 200us.

Shared MSRs (MSR_*STAR and related) are stored in both vmx->guest_msrs and in the CPU registers, but vmx_set_msr() only updated memory. Prior to 46199f33, this didn't matter, since we called vmx_load_host_state(), which scheduled a vmx_save_host_state(), which re-synchronized the CPU state, but now we don't, so the CPU state will not be synchronized until the next exit to host userspace. This mostly affects nested vmx workloads, which play with these MSRs a lot. Fix by loading the MSR eagerly. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The new IRQ sharing feature introduced here is optional, user space has to request it explicitly.
