SYSCALL emulation currently clears in 64-bit mode eflags according to MSR_SYSCALL_MASK. However, on bare-metal eflags[1] which is fixed to one cannot be cleared, even if MSR_SYSCALL_MASK masks the bit. This wrong behavior may result in failed VM-entry, as VT disallows entry with eflags[1] cleared. This patch sets the bit after masking eflags on syscall.

In x86, you can only MOV-sreg to memory with either 16-bits or 64-bits size. In contrast, KVM may write to 32-bits memory on MOV-sreg. This patch fixes KVM behavior, and sets the destination operand size to two, if the destination is memory. When destination is registers, and the operand size is 32-bits, the high 16-bits in modern CPUs is filled with zero. This is handled correctly.

x86 debug registers hold a linear address. Therefore, breakpoints detection should consider CS.base, and check whether instruction linear address equals (CS.base + RIP).

According to the architecture all instructions are suppressing if memory access is prohibited due to DAT protection, unless stated otherwise for an instruction. The lctl[g]/stctl[g] implementations handled this incorrectly since control register handling was done piecemeal, which means they had terminating instead of suppressing semantics.

If that happens VCPU threads will hang (unkillable) in handle_ipte_interlock. Andreas Krebbel analyzed this and tracked it down to a compiler bug in that version: "while it is not that obvious the C99 standard basically forbids duplicating the memory access also in that case. For an argumentation of a similiar case please see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22278#c43 For the implementation-defined cases regarding volatile there are some GCC-specific clarifications which can be found here: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Volatiles.html#Volatiles I've tracked down the problem with a reduced testcase. The problem was that during a tree level optimization (SRA - scalar replacement of aggregates) the volatile marker is lost. And an RTL level optimizer (CSE - common subexpression elimination) then propagated the memory read into its second use introducing another access to the memory location. So indeed Christian's suspicion that the union access has something to do with it is correct (since it triggered the SRA optimization). This issue has been reported and fixed in the GCC 4.8 development cycle: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145" This patch replaces the ACCESS_ONCE scheme with a barrier() based scheme that should work for all supported compilers.

The check in kvm_set_lapic_tscdeadline_msr() was trying to prevent a situation where we lose a pending deadline timer in a MSR write. Losing it is fine, because it effectively occurs before the timer fired, so we should be able to cancel or postpone it. Another problem comes from interaction with QEMU, or other userspace that can set deadline MSR without a good reason, when timer is already pending: one guest's deadline request results in more than one interrupt because one is injected immediately on MSR write from userspace and one through hrtimer later. The solution is to remove the injection when replacing a pending timer and to improve the usual QEMU path, we inject without a hrtimer when the deadline has already passed.

If DR4/5 is accessed when it is unavailable (since CR4.DE is set), then #UD should be generated even if CPL>0. This is according to Intel SDM Table 6-2: "Priority Among Simultaneous Exceptions and Interrupts". Note, that this may happen on the first DR access, even if the host does not sets debug breakpoints. Obviously, it occurs when the host debugs the guest. This patch moves the DR4/5 checks from __kvm_set_dr/_kvm_get_dr to handle_dr. The emulator already checks DR4/5 availability in check_dr_read. Nested virutalization related calls to kvm_set_dr/kvm_get_dr would not like to inject exceptions to the guest. As for SVM, the patch follows the previous logic as much as possible. Anyhow, it appears the DR interception code might be buggy - even if the DR access may cause an exception, the instruction is skipped.

KVM does not deliver x2APIC broadcast messages with physical mode. Intel SDM (10.12.9 ICR Operation in x2APIC Mode) states: "A destination ID value of FFFF_FFFFH is used for broadcast of interrupts in both logical destination and physical destination modes." In addition, the local-apic enables cluster mode broadcast. As Intel SDM 10.6.2.2 says: "Broadcast to all local APICs is achieved by setting all destination bits to one." This patch enables cluster mode broadcast. The fix tries to combine broadcast in different modes through a unified code. One rare case occurs when the source of IPI has its APIC disabled. In such case, the source can still issue IPIs, but since the source is not obliged to have the same LAPIC mode as the enabled ones, we cannot rely on it. Since it is a rare case, it is unoptimized and done on the slow-path.

In order to access the shadow VMCS, we need to load it. At this point, vmx->loaded_vmcs->vmcs and the actually loaded one start to differ. If we now get preempted by Linux, vmx_vcpu_put and, on return, the vmx_vcpu_load will work against the wrong vmcs. That can cause copy_shadow_to_vmcs12 to corrupt the vmcs12 state. Fix the issue by disabling preemption during the copy operation. copy_vmcs12_to_shadow is safe from this issue as it is executed by vmx_vcpu_run when preemption is already disabled before vmentry. This bug is exposed by running Jailhouse within KVM on CPUs with shadow VMCS support. Jailhouse never expects an interrupt pending vmexit, but the bug can cause it if, after copy_shadow_to_vmcs12 is preempted, the active VMCS happens to have the virtual interrupt pending flag set in the CPU-based execution controls.

With device tree based booting, things may or may not work depending what bootloader has configured or if the legacy platform code gets called. Let's add support for the pwrdn and reset GPIOs to the smc91x driver to fix the issues of smc91x not working properly when booted in device tree mode. And let's change n900 to use these settings as some versions of the bootloader do not configure things properly causing errors.

Resources scif1_resources & scif2_resources overlap. Actual SCIF region size is 0x10. This is regression from commit d850acf9 ("sh: Declare SCIF register base and IRQ as resources") Signed-off-by: NAndriy Skulysh <askulysh@gmail.com> Acked-by: NLaurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Since CONFIG_HIGHMEM got enabled on ARMv5 Kirkwood, we have noticed a very significant drop in networking performance. The test were conducted on an OpenBlocks A7 board. Without this patch, the outgoing performance measured with iperf are: - highmem OFF, TSO OFF 544 Mbit/s - highmem OFF, TSO ON 942 Mbit/s - highmem ON, TSO OFF 306 Mbit/s - highmem ON, TSO ON 246 Mbit/s On this Kirkwood platform, the L2 cache is a Feroceon cache, and with this cache, all the range operations have to be done on virtual addresses and not physical addresses. Therefore, whenever CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled, the cache maintenance operations call kmap_atomic_pfn() and kunmap_atomic(). However, kmap_atomic_pfn() does not implement the same fast path for non-highmem pages as the one implemented in kmap_atomic(), and this is one of the reason for the performance drop. While this patch does not fully restore the performances, it clearly improves them a lot: without patch with patch - highmem ON, TSO OFF 306 Mbit/s 387 Mbit/s - highmem ON, TSO ON 246 Mbit/s 434 Mbit/s We're still far from the !CONFIG_HIGHMEM performances, but it does improve a bit the situation. Thanks a lot to Ezequiel Garcia and Gregory Clement for all the testing work around this topic.
