      This can be reproduced readily by running a full dynticks guest(since hrtimer
      in guest is heavily used) w/ lapic_timer_advance disabled.
      
      If fail to program hardware preemption timer, we will fallback to hrtimer based
      method, however, a previous programmed preemption timer miss to cancel in this
      scenario which results in one hardware preemption timer and one hrtimer emulated
      tsc deadline timer run simultaneously. So sometimes the target guest deadline
      tsc is earlier than guest tsc, which leads to the computation in vmx_set_hv_timer
      can underflow and cause delta_tsc to be set a huge value, then host soft lockup
      as above.
      
      This patch fix it by cancelling the previous programmed preemption timer if there
      is once we failed to program the new preemption timer and fallback to hrtimer
      based method.

      KVM: vmx: fix underflow in TSC deadline calculation · 9175d2e9
      Paolo Bonzini 提交于
      If the TSC deadline timer is programmed really close to the deadline or
      even in the past, the computation in vmx_set_hv_timer can underflow and
      cause delta_tsc to be set to a huge value.  This generally results
      in vmx_set_hv_timer returning -ERANGE, but we can fix it by limiting
      delta_tsc to be positive or zero.

      KVM: x86: support using the vmx preemption timer for tsc deadline timer · ce7a058a
      Yunhong Jiang 提交于
      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]

      KVM: x86: avoid simultaneous queueing of both IRQ and SMI · c43203ca
      Paolo Bonzini 提交于
      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).

      KVM: Handle MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL · 0c2df2a1
      Dmitry Bilunov 提交于
      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.

      KVM: x86: avoid write-tearing of TDP · b19ee2ff
      Nadav Amit 提交于
      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.

      kvm:vmx: more complete state update on APICv on/off · 3ce424e4
      Roman Kagan 提交于
      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.
