init_vmcb() sets up the intercepts as if the fpu is active, so initialize it there. This avoids an INIT from setting up intercepts inconsistent with fpu_active. Acked-by: NJoerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Defer fpu deactivation as much as possible - if the guest fpu is loaded, keep it loaded until the next heavyweight exit (where we are forced to unload it). This reduces unnecessary exits. We also defer fpu activation on clts; while clts signals the intent to use the fpu, we can't be sure the guest will actually use it. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The tsc_offset adjustment in svm_vcpu_load is executed unconditionally even if Linux considers the host tsc as stable. This causes a Linux guest detecting an unstable tsc in any case. This patch removes the tsc_offset adjustment if the host tsc is stable. The guest will now get the benefit of a stable tsc too.

Sometime, we need to adjust some state in order to reflect guest CPUID setting, e.g. if we don't expose rdtscp to guest, we won't want to enable it on hardware. cpuid_update() is introduced for this purpose. Also export kvm_find_cpuid_entry() for later use. Signed-off-by: NSheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

svm_vcpu_reset() was not properly resetting the contents of the guest-visible cr0 register, causing the following issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525699 Without resetting cr0 properly, the vcpu was running the SIPI bootstrap routine with paging enabled, making the vcpu get a pagefault exception while trying to run it. Instead of setting vmcb->save.cr0 directly, the new code just resets kvm->arch.cr0 and calls kvm_set_cr0(). The bits that were set/cleared on vmcb->save.cr0 (PG, WP, !CD, !NW) will be set properly by svm_set_cr0(). kvm_set_cr0() is used instead of calling svm_set_cr0() directly to make sure kvm_mmu_reset_context() is called to reset the mmu to nonpaging mode.

New AMD processors (Family 0x10 models 8+) support the Pause Filter Feature. This feature creates a new field in the VMCB called Pause Filter Count. If Pause Filter Count is greater than 0 and intercepting PAUSEs is enabled, the processor will increment an internal counter when a PAUSE instruction occurs instead of intercepting. When the internal counter reaches the Pause Filter Count value, a PAUSE intercept will occur. This feature can be used to detect contended spinlocks, especially when the lock holding VCPU is not scheduled. Rescheduling another VCPU prevents the VCPU seeking the lock from wasting its quantum by spinning idly. Experimental results show that most spinlocks are held for less than 1000 PAUSE cycles or more than a few thousand. Default the Pause Filter Counter to 3000 to detect the contended spinlocks. Processor support for this feature is indicated by a CPUID bit. On a 24 core system running 4 guests each with 16 VCPUs, this patch improved overall performance of each guest's 32 job kernbench by approximately 3-5% when combined with a scheduler algorithm thati caused the VCPU to sleep for a brief period. Further performance improvement may be possible with a more sophisticated yield algorithm.

The nested SVM code emulates a #vmexit caused by a request to open the irq window right in the request function. This is a bug because the request function runs with preemption and interrupts disabled but the #vmexit emulation might sleep.

If event_inj is valid on a #vmexit the host CPU would write the contents to exit_int_info, so the hypervisor knows that the event wasn't injected.

X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB entries (svm). Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking other VMMs. To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine and disabled on destruction of the last one. So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other hypervisors usable.

This patch updates percpu related symbols in x86 such that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols. This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from percpu symbols. * arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c: rename local variable to avoid collision * arch/x86/kvm/svm.c: s/svm_data/sd/ for local variables to avoid collision * arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu_debug.c: s/cpu_arr/cpud_arr/ s/priv_arr/cpud_priv_arr/ s/cpu_priv_count/cpud_priv_count/ * arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c: s/cpuid4_info/ici_cpuid4_info/ s/cache_kobject/ici_cache_kobject/ s/index_kobject/ici_index_kobject/ * arch/x86/kernel/ds.c: s/cpu_context/cpu_ds_context/ Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars which cause name clashes" patch.

When svm_vcpu_load is called while the vcpu is running in guest mode the tsc adjustment made there is lost on the next emulated #vmexit. This causes the tsc running backwards in the guest.
