This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically. The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info structure.

One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm. As such, it is useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first. Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is to move it to the device ioctl handler. The capability identifier is also changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This adds a mechanism for exposing the virtual apic tpr to the guest, and a protocol for letting the guest update the tpr without causing a vmexit if conditions allow (e.g. there is no interrupt pending with a higher priority than the new tpr). Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Add a facility to report on accesses to the local apic tpr even if the local apic is emulated in the kernel. This is basically a hack that allows userspace to patch Windows which tends to bang on the tpr a lot. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch fixes a small issue where sturctures: kvm_pic_state kvm_ioapic_state are defined inside x86 specific code and may or may not be defined in anyway for other architectures. The problem caused is one cannot compile userspace apps (ex. libkvm) for other archs since a size cannot be determined for these structures.

The current cpuid management suffers from several problems, which inhibit passing through the host feature set to the guest: - No way to tell which features the host supports While some features can be supported with no changes to kvm, others need explicit support. That means kvm needs to vet the feature set before it is passed to the guest. - No support for indexed or stateful cpuid entries Some cpuid entries depend on ecx as well as on eax, or on internal state in the processor (running cpuid multiple times with the same input returns different output). The current cpuid machinery only supports keying on eax. - No support for save/restore/migrate The internal state above needs to be exposed to userspace so it can be saved or migrated. This patch adds extended cpuid support by means of three new ioctls: - KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID: get all cpuid entries the host (and kvm) supports - KVM_SET_CPUID2: sets the vcpu's cpuid table - KVM_GET_CPUID2: gets the vcpu's cpuid table, including hidden state [avi: fix original KVM_SET_CPUID not removing nx on non-nx hosts as it did before] Signed-off-by: NDan Kenigsberg <danken@qumranet.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch adds a new vcpu-based IOCTL to save and restore the local apic registers for a single vcpu. The kernel only copies the apic page as a whole, extraction of registers is left to userspace side. On restore, the APIC timer is restarted from the initial count, this introduces a little delay, but works fine.

Because lightweight exits (exits which don't involve userspace) are many times faster than heavyweight exits, it makes sense to emulate high usage devices in the kernel. The local APIC is one such device, especially for Windows and for SMP, so we add an APIC model to kvm. It also allows in-kernel host-side drivers to inject interrupts without going through userspace.

The current string pio interface communicates using guest virtual addresses, relying on userspace to translate addresses and to check permissions. This interface cannot fully support guest smp, as the check needs to take into account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a page boundary. Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there. The kernel manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks atomically by taking the appropriate locks. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode.

Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has just two enumerations (and no need for more).
