Injecting GP without an error code is a bad idea (causes unhandled guest exits). Moreover, we must not skip the instruction if we injected an exception. Signed-off-by: NJan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

As Avi noted: >There are two problems with the kernel failure report. First, it >doesn't report enough data - registers, surrounding instructions, etc. >that are needed to explain what is going on. Second, it can flood >dmesg, which is a pretty bad thing to do. So we remove the emulation failure report in handle_invalid_guest_state(), and would inspected the guest using userspace tool in the future.

If the guest fpu is loaded, there is nothing interesing about cr0.ts; let the guest play with it as it will. This makes context switches between fpu intensive guest processes faster, as we won't trap the clts and cr0 write instructions.

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>

Use two steps for memslot deletion: mark the slot invalid (which stops instantiation of new shadow pages for that slot, but allows destruction), then instantiate the new empty slot. Also simplifies kvm_handle_hva locking. Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

Before enabling, execution of "rdtscp" in guest would result in #UD. Signed-off-by: NSheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
-
由 Sheng Yang 提交于
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>

ept_update_paging_mode_cr4() accesses vcpu->arch.cr4 directly, which usually needs to be accessed via kvm_read_cr4(). In this case, we can't, since cr4 is in the process of being updated. Instead of adding inane comments, fold the function into its caller (vmx_set_cr4), so it can use the not-yet-committed cr4 directly. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
-
由 Avi Kivity 提交于
We make no use of cr4.pge if ept is enabled, but the guest does (to flush global mappings, as with vmap()), so give the guest ownership of this bit. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Instead of specifying the bits which we want to trap on, specify the bits which we allow the guest to change transparently. This is safer wrt future changes to cr4. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
-
由 Avi Kivity 提交于
Some bits of cr4 can be owned by the guest on vmx, so when we read them, we copy them to the vcpu structure. In preparation for making the set of guest-owned bits dynamic, use helpers to access these bits so we don't need to know where the bit resides. No changes to svm since all bits are host-owned there.

We don't support these instructions, but guest can execute them even if the feature('monitor') haven't been exposed in CPUID. So we would trap and inject a #UD if guest try this way. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NSheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

update_transition_efer() masks out some efer bits when deciding whether to switch the msr during guest entry; for example, NX is emulated using the mmu so we don't need to disable it, and LMA/LME are handled by the hardware. However, with shared msrs, the comparison is made against a stale value; at the time of the guest switch we may be running with another guest's efer. Fix by deferring the mask/compare to the actual point of guest entry. Noted by Marcelo. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

These happen when we trap an exception when another exception is being delivered; we only expect these with MCEs and page faults. If something unexpected happens, things probably went south and we're better off reporting an internal error and freezing. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

由 Avi Kivity 提交于
Usually userspace will freeze the guest so we can inspect it, but some internal state is not available. Add extra data to internal error reporting so we can expose it to the debugger. Extra data is specific to the suberror. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Instead of reloading syscall MSRs on every preemption, use the new shared msr infrastructure to reload them at the last possible minute (just before exit to userspace).

New NHM processors will support Pause-Loop Exiting by adding 2 VM-execution control fields: PLE_Gap - upper bound on the amount of time between two successive executions of PAUSE in a loop. PLE_Window - upper bound on the amount of time a guest is allowed to execute in a PAUSE loop If the time, between this execution of PAUSE and previous one, exceeds the PLE_Gap, processor consider this PAUSE belongs to a new loop. Otherwise, processor determins the the total execution time of this loop(since 1st PAUSE in this loop), and triggers a VM exit if total time exceeds the PLE_Window. * Refer SDM volume 3b section 21.6.13 & 22.1.3. Pause-Loop Exiting can be used to detect Lock-Holder Preemption, where one VP is sched-out after hold a spinlock, then other VPs for same lock are sched-in to waste the CPU time. Our tests indicate that most spinlocks are held for less than 212 cycles. Performance tests show that with 2X LP over-commitment we can get +2% perf improvement for kernel build(Even more perf gain with more LPs).
